Why do I feel so guilty?

Last night was my homecoming dance. I have a boyfriend who lives 4 hours away. We have been dating for almost 7 months. My guy friend at school just put his arms around my hips, and we started dancing. Everyone was "grinding'' So we did too. I just did it to fit in... it would be the only chance not to be an outcast. Well, he started grabbing my butt. I kind of liked it honestly. I was afraid to say no because I was afraid of losing yet someone else in my life. After, I realized he wasn't a friend. Then this guy that's 2 years older than me didn't ask me to dance, but just started dancing with me. It felt like he was having sex with my butt. I hated that. My friend said he was high. But, I have a boyfriend, and I feel totally guilty, and like it's all my fault. I told him some of what happened after, and he didn't know what to tell me to do. Then he didn't answer. Why do I feel so guilty, and what can I do?

Question applies to ages: 15

avatarAnonymous I think the reason you feel guilty is because you liked the attention from the other guys even though you have a boyfriend. It's okay to feel that way though. As females, we typically enjoy attention from the opposite sex -- it's natural. However, if you're ever uncomfortable with a situation, take control. You have the power to say no to a guy. Even if it makes you unpopular it's the right choice. If you're still embarassed then just say you have to go to the bathroom or get a drink. Then, when you return, stay on the opposite side of the group as the guy that's making you uncomfortable. Take some time to figure out how you really feel -- do you love your boyfriend or someone else? You're still young and you have an endless amount of time to find a guy you're totally happy with, so just take it slow. You deserve someone that's right for you.
