Youth Counselling

He is always after me

I’m a student of Std X. For many days, a boy whom I don’t like has been proposing to me. He is always after me. I need to concentrate on my studies and score good percentage and bring good name to my parents. How should I handle this situation?

Dear Deepika, you are in Std X and you are right in concentrating on your studies in order to make your parents proud of you. Because of the attraction between boys and girls during the teenage you are facing the problem of getting unwanted proposals from some boys. Without being rude, you should tell that boy whom you “don’t like” that you will be happy to see him concentrating on his studies and making his parents happy. In future, both of you will understand each other better and could build a good and lasting relationship.
