Search Results: opinions on cuddling

Hey everyone, so basically my boyfriend (he is my first boyfriend ever) and I have been together a total of a year later this month and he has been depressed for 7 months of our relationship now and our text conversations are monotonous and I'm just not sure if I can deal with the negativity anymore. I love my boyfriend, he's so sweet and caring and he makes me happy when I'm with him but thats another thing... I rarey ever get to see him, Im 16 and his parents dont allow him to go anywhere with me even to his front yard. This is taking a toll on me because I'm very adventurous and I can't stant not going out and doing things.

Recently I've gotten really close with my best guy friend and I found out last night while going on a night time adventure with his friends that well.. he likes me and I kind of like him but im committed to my boyfriend so I can't like this guy entirely. I mainly just want to stay friends with this guy though he makes me so so happy. Last night we were on a couch and we were extremely tired and he's been desperate for cuddles cause he's super affectionate like me and yeah I just let him lay on my lap and i ruffled his hair and rubbed his back and I feel guilty because I know I had cheated partially on my boyfriend in my opinion even though it was strictly platonic in my opinion.

So now I dont know what to do... do I leave my current boyfriend and try maybe being with this new dude and have more adventures and fun but this time as a couple or should I stick through it with my boyfriend because I love him and though there's so much bad right now because itll be better someday (cause he truly is who I want to be with in the future). or should I maybe even break up with my boyfriend and just remain friends with the other dude for now.

(and yeah I know my age is listed differently but I am 16, sorry for the confusion, I made this account 2 years ago and I didn't want to be listed as a 14 year old.)
