Awkward relathionship!

[uniquedreaming]

I am 16 years old and my step-brother is 22. We both had feelings for each other a couple months after we met, inspite of the fact that he is my step-brother. The last time he saw me, he wanted to push my hair back but I playfully smacked his hand away. He first looked surprised but then gave me a smile that said you're trying to resist but I know you still like me and I like you, and I gave him the same smile back. Him and I have a history of flirting but never did anything other than that. He never tried to do anything with me but respected my presence. All in all, what could this mean? And what should I do next time I see him?

Do many forms of No I am not sure where to start. You are jailbait my dear. Stop talking to him. Go talk to someone at home with authority. We can only do so much here. I skimmed your other thread. Ever think she is trying to protect you??? If you are so mature like you said then make mature decisions. Know who to trust. I will start you out...your mom is one person to be trusted.

Good luck dear

I think that if she is trying to protect me then she is too protective and she needs to give me some space..

A perfectlly normal response from a female your age, but a definite indicator of the lack of maturity that triggers the very response you're looking to escape. While it's parental to want to protect your children, and to sometimes be overly protective is natural, overall, a parent WANTS their child to start exercising some independence as they move closer to adulthood. If your mother is reigning that freedom in, then their is something in your behavior triggering the reaction(it IS a reaction, caused by your action). If you want "more space", look at your own behavior and what you can do to demonstrate trust-worthiness. Make responsible decisions, not "adult" decisions. And for fuck's sake, you're step-brother has not right being interested in his 16 year old step-sister.

I appreciate the reply and seeing what other teens do, I consider my mom to be overly protective and stressed out so that makes her paranoid and her mind runs wild thinking I might do something completely wrong. I always try to prove to her that I am not so immature and that I am not exactly everything she thinks I am and who she expects me to be but I don't know how.

Oh and about my step-brother, it's so wierd but I am attracted to him too...

Avoid being with him alone.....you cannot get together with your stepbrother - it is wrong socially and your family will never accept it. It is considered incest even though you are not blood-related.
