Dear Shelby: ----- My name is Josh and i'm a senior i high school. I Have been seeing this girl since last summer but she has never really said if we are going out. I have just been assuming we are because she has had the chance to go to other guys but she has not. Also she yells at me if i screw up and do some thing stupid to her like not call and other things of that nature, and if i do something stupid in general like she cares and loves me.. and she treats me as if i am but when people ask me in front of her and just ask me i dont no what to say and she dont say any thing either. But i really love her and i dont now what to say to here about this situation. so if u could send me some advice on this it would be very helpful. ------------Josh

Dear Joshing: ------ Women don't think like men, but I do. ------ Females are emotionally involved when they are physically involved. If they are not physically involved, then they still feel that they are naturally entitled to adoration and subservience. Many women measure their self-worth by the number of poor hapless saps they drag around by the heart. ------ So the solution is simple: ask her what you should say when people ask. ------ If she tells you 'just friends', then you are screwed. If she says 'boyfriend / girlfriend', you are in like flint - give'er a tickle and steal a kiss. If she says 'iduno' or kinda shrugs, then try to offer 'boyfriend / girlfriend'. She'll either go for it or not. But remember, if she shakes her head... its a FINAL answer (not that you're going to listen to me). -----Hang Tough, Shelby
