Dear Carol
"Dear Carol, should I fake my first kiss?"
Dear Carol,
My friends made a deal with this guy who likes me. They told me they'd pay him if he kissed me at a dance. I have a problem with this because 1) I like someone else and, 2) the kiss is fake. I don't want my first kiss to be fake, but my friends say I don't have a choice.
—Kiss Catastrophe
Dear Kiss Catastrophe,
Of course you have a choice. Your friend's aren't the boss of you. Tell them you don't like this setup. When the dance comes around, hang out with other girls and guys. By the way, this boy may not want to be a pawn in your friend's plan, either.
