Annie Fox for Teens... Hey, Terra!

Annie (AKA Hey Terra!) has been around long enough to have experienced a lot of what Life can dish out. But, it hasn’t been so long that she's forgotten what it's like to be your age. Check out some of the thousands of email questions teens from around the world have sent to Terra. You may learn something useful from her answers:

“I don't want to play my bf, but I feel tempted.”
(Continued)

Hey Terra,

I think you're right. In some way I do enjoy the attention they give me and I do wish that my b/f could give me the attention he used to in the beginning, but I understand that he has a life and it can't always involve me. I think I will talk to him b/c I don't want anyone else but him and I know that if I was to cheat on him he would never forgive me and he would never take me back and I'm not sure that I could handle that. I thank you for your advice. It's made me realize that I would rather have the bit of attention my boyfriend gives than have him hate me and leave me.

Thank you!

Tempted to Cheat

Dear Tempted to Cheat,

Glad to help!

In friendship,

Terra
