Q Dear Auntie, I am 16 years old and want your advice. A boy in my class wants to date me, but I can’t seem to say yes. He is very cute, but I don’t like his older sister.
From Deurmekaar.
A Ai puppy love, how cute!
Shame liefie, what is it that is really standing in your way?
Is it only his sister that is keeping you from getting bymekaar or is there something else that’s bothering you?
Listen, hartjie, just know that you won’t like everyone in life, and not everyone is going to like you.
If you don’t like his sister, then just try not to hang out with her. But make sure you are nice to her when you do see her.
You don’t have to become BFFs, but that doesn’t mean you have to be varkerig with her.
As long as you keep your side clean, it will be fine.
Also don’t tell this berk you don’t like his sister, he might take offence.
So go to school tomorrow, tell this outjie yes and enjoy having him in your life.
You are still young, don’t make things too complicated for yourself. Relax!
