    Alright.. I have been friends with this girl since 2nd grade. Her name is Amanda and she's just like a sister to me. All of my life, I never would think she'd have a problem of any kind, whatsoever. Apparently that's not the case. I wondered why she never really did anything but kiss a guy when she actually had a boyfriend.. but she let it slip the other day..

    Amanda was born without a muscle in the top part of her right arm. This causes her to well... only have one normal left breast and her right one is like, not even there.. it's flat. She's very freaked out because she got a boyfriend named Robert and apparently she really loves him and doesn't want them to break up. But she doesn't want to tell him about her problem because she doesn't think he'll understand or tell people about it.. or possibly think she's a freak and break up with her and she really doesn't want that. He doesn't want sex but would like to do some other things.. but every time his hands reach up her shirt she'll freak out and push him away and he doesn't understand why. She loves him too death but doesn't want him to find out even though he keeps trying..

    So, any advice for Amanda, please? She's my best friend but I have no idea what to tell her.. She's so happy with his guy but there's this one problem that she has and doesn't want him to find out. She can have surgery done in a few years to fix it and be "normal" but that will be whenever she's 18 - 20 and is just about to turn 16.

    I think she needs to wait until she's ready to tell him. Yes, he deserves to know, and the sooner the better. But, if she's not ready to tell him.. then she's not.

    Yeah, I mean.. they haven't been dating that long but she's really liked him ever since they met. He got WWAAYY too close though when they went to the movies the other night so that's why she asked me for help. She's just afraid that he might not think of her the same way if she told him and he'd leave.. just think of her differently actually.

    If she's not comfortable telling him that, then she isn't ready to fool around with him yet. Seriously- if she can't trust him to stay with her over something so trivial as that, then their relationship is clearly not mature enough to move any further.

    With time, I'm sure she'll be comfortable enough to tell him, and maybe by then she'll be ready to go farther physically.
