Miss Thang Welcomes Spring with Advice About Love, Cheating and Overcoming Shyness
Spring is here, my kittens, and you know what that means...love is in the air! I'm telling you, when the temperature heats up, so does the romance – even for your very own Miss Thang! Now I didn't want to say anything right away because you know how fickle I can be, but I do have a new relationship brewing. And I'm proud to say, it's with a Cutie. (So there,
Mr. Metropolitan! Deal with that!)
I can't say his name because he likes to lay low, but let me tell you, he is quite the gentleman! He opens doors for me, treats me to magnificent meals, and best of all he knows how to make me laugh ... an essential quality in a mate! So because of this, I am preliminarily referring to him as my boyfriend. Now for Miss Thang to take a step like that is pretty big, but I will say I'm taking things slow. After all, no need to jump into anything. I'd rather just enjoy being courted!
Since I'm in a particularly good mood today (Mr. Wonderful bought me breakfast this morning and food is definitely a way into Miss Thang's heart), my answers may be a bit more chipper than usual! So let's get into it, shall we? goth-7: I'm in love with this guy. The only problem is we've been friends for a very long time. I know he loves me too, but I'm afraid that if we go out and we get into a fight about something that not only is it going to cause us to break up, but then we're also going to lose the friendship we have now. What should I do? Oh, I can't tell you the number of times my friends have encountered the same problem as you, so you are in the company of some very incredible women. I will say that when you take a leap from friendship to romance, you are pretty much entering the great unknown. It could work or it might not. But if you are confident that you both feel that strongly about each other, then you would be off to the best possible start. In my experience (which we all know is quite extensive), the couples who last the longest consider themselves to be best friends. Falling in love is a risk no matter what, but trust me, it's worth the reward! ripley111: Dear miss__thang, I have been crushing on this boy for over a year now and I just found out after New Years that he likes me too!! He sent me a Valentines card for valentines day and I absolutely loved it! Then a couple days later he called and we talked. I really love him and he told me he loves me, but we can't look each other in the eyes or talk to each other without blushing. Every opportunity we get 2 see each other, we get too shy to say anything. We'll say hi and he will look at me and turn as red as an apple. I think it's cute that he's shy. But can you tell me how to get over my shyness? OK, so we've got to get you and your beau to break out of your shyness shells and start having some fun. If you two like each other, the next natural step is for you to spend some time together. Try to find things you both enjoy like seeing movies. For instance, taking a trip to go see a comedy will give you both the chance to laugh it up and let loose. Plus, if you grab a bite after, you'll have good fodder for conversation. The more hours you rack up with one another, the more comfortable you'll ultimately feel. Until then, enjoy saving all that money on blush! xprincessofsingingx: Miss__Thang, Okay, so I had a bf and I found out he was cheating on me. He was so sweet though, and I can't get over him. I am mad at him for cheating on me, but he might ask me back. Should I give him another chance? He seemed to really like me but I don't know what to do. Can you please help me? I know you get a lot of Znotes, but I am begging, could you please help me? Now just because Miss Thang is in a good mood today does not mean that her intolerance for cheaters has suddenly disappeared! I'll try to stay open-minded though. Perhaps this guy just happened to trip and fall into another girl's face, and it only looked like they were kissing. Or maybe he went to a restaurant alone and there were no tables free so they paired him up with another singleton who just so happens to be gorgeous. Both these situations are totally realistic, right? Well if you are likely to believe these explanations, then you are also likely to put yourself out there to get hurt again with this guy. So re-enter this relationship at your own risk, and make sure you know what his motives are. If you go in blind, you may just get blindsided. Well, I have to go shopping now. I have a date tonight and I need to look smokin'! Nothing makes me feel hotter than a brand new outfit. Don't forget to leave me those questions for my next mailbag! And thanks to all for making those inquiries as clear as can be when you write them! XOXO
