Dear Miss Dee,
I was dating this guy who I really liked, but he sort of stopped talking to me and I found out he now has a girlfriend. However, we hang out in the same circles and every time I see him out he flirts as if we were still involved and I’m really torn. I still care for him, but I don’t want to be his plaything. Help!

Dear Torn & Tattered,
Well first off, you’re not alone. This is the familiar story that I’ve heard ohhhh so many times! Girl meets guy. Girl likes guy. Guy likes girl back BUT guy wants his cake and wants to EAT IT TOO! Unfortunately guys get young women wrapped up into these types of “between a rock and a hard place” emotional roller coasters far too often. This guy may have liked you at a time, but that time has passed…
