Hey, I dont like to admit it but I kindove feel a bit peer pressured. For example I dont smoke, I know its bad for me but my friends know its not good for them but they still do it, but then Im always known and have this good innocent girl image where I dont want to do things like that but people who I know smoke and they make it look cool and its still accepted in society as some cool thing I guess, and I feel like I need to at least try a cigarette in my life, otherwise I will just have this image that Im like not cool or Im just the good girl who doesnt know how to have a good time But what do I do- I feel I need to like change who I am or my image or something because I dont feel good enough? Im worried guys wont like me because Im just not like edgy or Im just too much of a good girl I know it sounds weird but I just feel guys want a girl whos kindove like a bit bad ass. Im 14 and Ive never had a boyfriend, so Im also worried about the fact that . Im just really not confident in myself at all.

Hey Vicki this probably isn’t your everyday question but I’m scared my boyfriend is gay 😭 it all began when I told my mum about him and said how he’d never had a girlfriend (hes 18) and she started half-joking about him being gay, now my mum isn’t very nice and would happily do something to make me overthink but now I am overthinking. I’ve been with him just over two weeks now and I feel like whenever I say something suggestive in a jokey way he doesn’t reciprocate. Now he is extremely shy (also a virgin and I was his first kiss) so that could be why he doesn’t reciprocate. I’m just worried he will come out as gay and I’ll look really stupid 😭 of course I’d support him but I do really really like so. Please help 😭

HI vicki. Im a 14 year old girl, and ive been going to boarding school since i was 11. I really love it here, im currently in my houses common room just chilling. I am part of a trio with two other boys, they are my best friends and i spend all my time with them, we are all in the same house so are almost always together, as we get older i start to wonder if maybe there is something more between us, one boy ive kind of always had a little crush on, and sometimes i wonder if maybe he feels the same way, hes super cute and funny and i love spending time with him, it sometimes gets awkward etween us so thats when i thought there might be a small possibility he wants a relationship. With the other boy, im super close to him and he always stands up for me, but i have never seen him in that way before, just like a best friend really, but i dont know what to do! Can u help?? x

Afternoon Vicki. I'm in Year 13 and know this person in one of my classes. We sort of catch up here and there during group work. For context I've spoken to people before, and even large audiences and never felt nervous or stumbled on my words. But, when I speak with this person I sort of do. Last month I asked if they wanted to catch up during one of the lunch breaks, and they said they were busy that day. I wanted to ask again, but because of the time that's passed it might seem odd. Before the year ends I felt I should tell them the reason as to why I wanted to catch up was because when I speak to them around others I freeze up in a way, and felt being away from class would be easier. How could I approach this Vicki?

Hi Vicki. Someone I know at uni and speak to from time to time is planning an end of year going out party. I've heard some of the names going, and feel it would be nice to go, but they haven't mentioned anything to me. I wouldn't obviously ask them, but wanted to hear your thoughts. I hope you can help.

Hi Vicki, It's cnJHz here. I ended up going out with him last Saturday. It was kind of a last-minute thing. He messaged on Friday night and asked if I wanted to watch a movie with him at 7 pm the next day. I wasn't sure what I was going to say when I saw his message the next day, but my housemates convinced me to just do it and say yes, so I did. I was so stressed and nervous, but I think it was kind of okay. I feel like I'm getting a lot of mixed messages from him, and I just can't figure him out. When I first got to his house, we went on a walk straight away, and we were making small talk. Then he randomly dropped that he went on a date with another girl on Wednesday and took her golfing. He said she was 27 years old, and he lied and told her he was 23 instead of the 20 he is, which he said he knows was very bad of him. He also said nothing serious happened between them. I just kept my reply neutral cause I thought maybe I had miscalculated things and this was actually a friend thing and not a date. Then he bought me boba and we went back his house and watched the movie in his living room. Both of us had seen the movie before and forgotten that it has some questionable scenes. He was like, 'This is a crazy movie choice for our first time'. So he didn't call it a date then either. He also did this thing where he was leaning back against the armrest of the sofa and gave me this look. It was like an admiring smile, and it gave me butterflies. I looked away cause it was so intense, but I kind of wish I hadn't. Then we went upstairs to his room cause I wanted to see his cat, and then we sat on his bed. He did ask me when I planned on leaving cause he didn't want us to 'yipper yap awkwardly,' which was kind of odd. I said I had to be home by 10:30 pm max, but then we found something to talk about, and it got to 10:45 pm, and I was still there. So I told him I should probably go, and he said he could drive me home if I wanted, instead of me ordering an Uber like I said I would. When he dropped me off he said we should do this again. I decided to give him a second chance. The next day I messaged him and said I had fun, and he said he enjoyed it too and added a ';)' which I have no idea what it means. He double-texted with a picture of him watching a show I recommended to him. I just don't know what to make of him. In person he told me that he doesn't like back and forth texting and is a check his messages once a day kind of person. I get it, but it just kind of makes me anxious. Like yesterday, I didn't get a reply from him all day, and this morning he did explain that it was cause he went out last night and forgot to reply, which I guess is progress since he explained himself. If he doesn't like messaging back and forth then surely he should ask me to do something with him again, but he hasn't. What do you think?

All around me people are getting boyfriends or girlfriends or partners and I wish I would meet someone I'm so sick of wingwomaning, I'm the one who drafts all the messages to the boy who likes my friend, to the point where even though she is unsure about her feelings for him I feel like the two of us would hit it off. Im just so annoyed becuase my friend is the kind of girl who gets out there and makes friends and gets ppls attention and i would excep ti dont rllly have exposure to btoys in general and all the girls i like are already dating people. Anyway sorry vicki thank you for reading this you're an awesome human xxxx
