I'm fifteen, and I have a boyfriend. We haven't really been together for a long time. (2 months and a day today) and, well, he just doesn't seem interested at all. He probably only pays attention when were together ALONE. OH yeah...we also already had sex. BUT WE USED PROTECTION. Other than that, he ignores me. Well, sometimes. and it makes me mad! Is he embarrassed about me? Does he not want to be with me? HELP!

No, he's not embarrassed of you, it's just that, sometimes, guys are clueless. But in fairness, they are learning, too, and their hormones are raging!  If you are absolutely sure you're not being needy, and blowing  this out of proportion, set him straight. Don't be a nag, don't get whiny, just tell him. "If we're going to be together, please don't ignore me when we're with other people." See what he says. If he shines you, or gets defensive, end it with him. You don't want to spend any more time wishing, and hoping he'll come around. It's frustrating, and you'll begin to think you're doing something wrong. You've had sex with him, now, and that's a pretty intimate thing. But you don't want to feel as if that's all he's interested in. I like a little independence in a relationship. You and he don't need to be joined at the hip -- but when you're together, consideration should be paid. Take charge, and don't settle for less that what you want. No one is perfect, but if he's worth your time, he'll understand how you feel and make an effort to correct this problem. Seek relationships where you are an equal. I've said it, ad nauseam, people get away with behaving badly, because friends, lovers, spouses, and family let it happen. Simply don't allow it, or you'll have no one to blame but yourself.
