THere's a reason why couples don't make it 3 years, especially in middle school. People are exploring, finding themselves, understanding who they are and what they want to be. It's not an easy way to go, but there is a reason, as I said, and getting together with someone at your age, well, Im not sure, but you need to understand yourself, etc. Being popular isn't what you should want from life. What does it mean to be popular? What is that going to give you in the long run, in the future? Keeping up these standards of being someone, being someone whom others want you to be because it is 'right' or 'good', etc. Well, where are you going?

You dont have to spend money to be active! Just go running, but if your boyfriend is making you feel bad about yourself you should really tell him, and if he doesnt care, dump him.

Your body isn't his to order around. You should be active for your own health and happiness, not anyone else's.

Biking is a lot of fun, if you've got one. My bike was super cheap, nothing fancy, and it'll get me from point A to B. Anyways, good luck!
