"get him back.."?...not exactly the healthy mindset at this point, and indicative of insecurity/dependence; the guy is essentially leaving the relationship, a good chance he'll be seeing this other woman
first, there's nothing wrong with being discriminating; the more you interact, the greater the chance you'll uncover certain personality traits that aren't appealing; however, this evaluation is far more
if you're interested in quick, casual, no strings sex, do it--if you're interested in perhaps beginning to date someone and possibly have a real relationship, a kiss on the cheek is the way to go...why
the boy, like ALL boys, has a mainly sexual interest--these guys are way too young to know about or have much interest in "relationships"; as for you, at 13, you shouldn't be sucking ANYONE'S dick, even
you don't need a dating coach, except perhaps for occasional guidance; it's not supposed to be spoonfed to you and then you act robotically; trust your natural instincts, perceptions, judgments, learn
