[quote=Anonymous]I have a soon to be 16 years old son.  He is very introvert and very shy for as long as I can remember.  He does not talk to anyone unless they talk to him first.

He didn't have any issues from 1st to 8th grade.  He is an average B student, hard worker.

He excels in both guitar and piano.  He practices the guitar everyday for at least an hour and he tries to emulate both Eddie Van Halen and Don Felder of the Eagles.

On top of that, he is also an excellent tennis player.  He has been playing tennis since he was 5 years old.  He played the #1 position on the HS tennis team as a freshman and the school did really well this past year.  
He suddenly becomes a "jock" in school

Here is the problem.

By now, everyone in school knows not only he is such a good athelete but he is also a musican.  On top of that, he just starts his growth spurt over the summer. 
He worked out 5 hours everyday this past summer, he is now 5'10" and 145lbs with 14% body fat and much better looking than he was just two years ago.  Ever
since 10th grade starts 2 1/2 months ago, I notice that a lot of girls at school have been texting him and want to go out with him.  Some of the texts mentioned about
kissing and touching (yes, I spied on him).  I am not very good at talking to him about this, single father, and I don't think he knows how to handle this either.  He 
mentioned in one of the texts to his best friends that he has had a crush on this girl since 7th grade but she has been ignoring him until this year.  She wants to hang
out with him and he does not know what to do.  I can't give him advice because he would know that I have been reading his text, and I don't want to talk to him about
sex either because I really don't know what to say to him.  My thinking is that I should have him go see a shrink so that he can talk to a shrink freely instead of me 
about girls and sex.
