how do I becom a better speler and reder? Im deslecksic (link)
practice i guess


..ok...soo....its been a few months since my boyfriend and I broke up, and I was upset, but now I'm ok with it. And he has a new girlfriend, but yet...my friends say he always watches me when I walk past, but he tries to hide it (he doesn't do a very good job). And when you ask him if he would ever go back out with me, He's like No I'm happy with (we'll call her Bob) Bob. So then what's with the watching me crap? Could somebody explain it to me? Ahhh. Thanks. (link)
he might still like you but doesnt want to show that he misses u!

I've worn makeup for years, and I have gotten so used to seeing myself with it that I hate the way I look without it. But, I am sick of not really looking like my natural self, since everyone knows me with my face made-up. I don't know how to stop really wearing makeup, without being unhappy with how I look without it. Any ideas???? (link)
maybe you should just cut down on the make- up each day. Wear a little less each day. Hope that helps...

hey. well, to get right to it, there's this guy i fell in love with. he's a senior, and i'm a freshman, but i still love him more than life itself. but there are so many problems....he is my 19th cousin...do u think that's bad? then there's his "new" girlfriend. and the fact that he loves his 3rd cousin, which is worse than me. but the real problem is he is a vampire. i'm serious. he sucks his blood and everything! he's even tried to kill me a number of times. but i still fell in love with him somehow. but the day i found out he had a girlfriend, i slit my wrist 23 times. i've been doing it every night for almost a month now because of him. now, i'm not pretty or skinny, so it's not like i have another guy to like instead. do you have any advice? and then...there's my second problem. i'm 14, and there's this really nice, really sweet 22 year old who loves me. and i have no clue what to do. he's a minister, but he has a bad past and reputation. some of my friends are afraid that he'll rape me or something like that. but i like him alot. what should i do? cuz it's kinda illegal.......well, thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Bye (link)
Sounds like u need advice. I suggest that u talk to ur parents or guidence counseler. Dont hurt ur self over a guy and if he is really a vampire dont like him still. If u like a 22 year old man that is fine but dont do anythin w/ him.



Why do boys have ask girls out and why cant girls ask boys out. It make it so much more complicated for the boys. And the boys will never have a girlfriend if they are to shy to ask out the girl they like. (link)
I really dont know... i wonder the same thing


I am a 29 year old married woman with three kids. I just found out that I am pregnant and my husband and I have agreed that I would have an abortion because we couldn't afford to have another child. We are already struggling to raise our three kids. I am so confused and depressed right now. I am scheduled to have my abortion next week though. If I continue with this pregnancy that means I would have to stop working and money is really tight right now. We are actually living pay check to pay check right now. The other side of me wanted to continue having this child. And it really hurts me so that I have to do this. My family and his family would be so dissappointed if they learned I'm preganant and I doubt that they would be willing to help. If you were in my shoes, would you do the same thing? Am I wrong in doing this? (link)
I feel it is aptsulutely bad to abort ur child. If u knew that u didnt want to have another kid, y did u?? or didnt u know??
anyway i feel u should go through and have your babie and then put her up for adoption.
Hope i helped

My 10 year old daughter is invited to a birthday party sleepover this weekend. Is ten year old too young for sleepovers or is it okay for this age to go on sleepovers? (link)
It is fine for her to go to a sleepover. It is a fun activity to get to bond w/ ur friends more.
Hope that helped

p.s- make sure that u feel comfterable with her parents


First of all I have been dating my girlfrind now for a little over 4 months, she has been divorced for 2 years , I have been divorced for a year now also.
She has 2 kids (boy,4) (girl,11) and I have a (boy13)
Throughout the past four months I have endured doing things with her ex husband and her like skydiving, and going out on Halloween with her and her kids, I really dont approve of the the way her Ex raises her kids ...and he is a alchoholic and doesnt have a job.
They alternate the kids from her house to his every other day and alternating weekends.
Now that the holidays are here it is getting to be a little to wierd for me having him around
She invited him to our Thanksgiving dinner...Then she said she felt sorry for him and asked me if it was OK?
I told her NO...my whole family was going to be there and I would feel uncomfortable with him being there also...now there is another dillema
She wants him to be at her house on Christmas morning to watch the kids open theyr'e presents
I will be there also and so will my son,
I dont feel that he should be there also, correct me if I am wrong but shouldent the kids have Chrismas at they're Fathers house and then theyre Mothers seperately.... I think her youngest child is really confused...I dont think he relizes the mom and dad are divorced....Can anyone give me advice?????

Wow, i am not sure wut to say. I think that u should maybe sit your girlfriend down and talk to her about how u feel. Yes, i also think that they should have christmas seperatly. I am not sure wut else to say....

Good Luck,
BRitt


I am so tired of school! I get so much homework from this one teacher and i want him to stop! i know this is dorky questions but should i talk to him about letting back on the homework? (link)
hmmmm, if u feel that he is giving way too much homework; sure talk to him about how u feel.
Hope that helped,

What's a good way to meet new people? (link)
I think that a good way to meet new ppl is just to be friendly and outgoing. find a good topic or statement to start a conversation. If they go to ur school u could ask,"did u do good on ur science test" or something like that. Once they c u r a friendly person they will probably feel comfterable talking back!

Good luck,
britt


Lately I've been chatting a lot with this guy. He's a friend of a friend. Anyway, it's been about 3 months now and we have loads in common. We decided to go see a movie together(not a date) next weekend. Trouble is, he's very smart, and when I'm chatting with him I always feel like I'm too stupid for him. When we meet, I'm afraid it might show even more, that he might start talking about things that i don't have much say in and he'll find me unworthy of his time and won't want to be friends anymore. How should I act, or should I plain out cancel the meeting and just stay friends on msn? (link)
Dear New Guy,
If i were u i really wouldnt worry about meeting him. I am sure that you aren't too dumb for him and maybe he is feeling the same way about meeting you.

Have fun,
Britt


I'm 16. I "went out" with a guy (now 17) two years ago and he really really hurt me. He led me on for a year, finally asked me out, and then never went anywhere with me. I embarassed him (by wearing my knee brace in gym class) and he dumped me BY EMAIL three weeks after he asked me out. It hurt so bad because not only did I waste a year of my life on him, we were friends before that.

Everytime I tried to talk to him afterwards, he would turn the tables and place all the blame on me. I can't get over my anger on him. I never talk to him, never look at him, and generally in day-to-day contact pretend he doesn't exist. I feel bad sometimes because we had a great friendship before, but I can't trust him anymore.

I'm fine not having him in my life, but holding this grudge has made me more hateful and I feel like I'm the worse person because of it. I never was upfront with him to his face about how much I can't stand him, because I fear confrontation. What can I do to let this go? How can I move on? (link)
Dear Grudging,
Personally i think that if he broke up w/ u just becuz of u wearin a leg brace that then you were never meant for eachother. Maybe if you would just try to talk to him or tell him how u feel, maybe that would work. If i were you i would try to find another guy.

Good Luck,
Britt


I like this girl at my school but she is 1 year older than me and in 1 grade ahead of me. She is on my bus and lives really close to me. I dont think she is very popular or has a boyfriend witch is good because im not very popular I mean I have a lot of friends but we are not in the popular group. How should I ask this girl out, do you think its even worth asking her out? Its so hard for me to think of what to say plus I dont know when to asker her out. (link)
Dear Asking someone out,
Lots of boys these days get a friend to ask a girl out for them. You could consider that or you could just ask her out yourself. You never know maybe she has been liking you for awhile too. You will never know if you dont take a chance...
Hope i helped,
Britt

P.S- Good Luck


I find mself very confused about this problem and may not be able to listen to myself as to the true answer.

Forgive me in advance for the length of this question.

Last year I started having recurring dreams about a woman I knew 15 years ago. She was married and we had a platonic relationship that bordered on romantic. I broke it off after 2 long years due to frustration. After the series of dreams, I wrote to her. My first attempt got no response. In my second attempt, I was a bit more open with my feelings. I received a phone message from her saying that her life was busy but she would get back to me. I did some research and found out that she has been divorced for quite some time but she had been seeing someone for about a year. I have not heard from her since the phone call (many months ago). Obviously, I felt a great deal for her but I do not want to hold on to unrequited feelings. I am still wondering why she said she would get back to me? She could have easily told me to go away or ignored me altogether. My question is simply... Will she ever contact me in a more meaningful fashion?

Thanks in advance,

Joseph (link)
Dear Joseph,
hmmmmmmmmmmm that is a hard question...
i really dont know! if she said she would get back to you HOPEFULLY she will. How reliable was she in the past?? Maybe you could try to contact her again and tell her how you really feel about her!!! anyway...
hope that helps...

So here's the deal. I have never had a g/f. But I have a very nice personality and I am very very funny. Whats wrong. HELP (link)
Dear Help,
All i can say is, maybe the girls are just waiting for you to make the first move. You probably have a bunch of girls out there who like you!

Signed,
Britt


there's this guy (yeah, yeah, i know it's not original, but it makes sense this way!) i've liked nearly all this year, and i think he likes me. he's showing all the signs (e.g. choosing seats near me, watching me, then turning away when i see him, etc.) but i'm not sure. see, i nearly always sit near my friend, and i'm sometimes not sure if it's me he wants to be near or watch, etc., or her.i know the obvious solution would be to not sit near my friend, and see what he does, but i don't want to. i really believe in that saying about not choosing guys over your friends, and i don't want to just ditc her. (btw, she doesn't know that i like this guy. we're not close enough for that, but we've been frinds for seven years or something. she's not all that close with anyone else in the class) what would you do if you were me? also, i'm kinda shy sometimes, so i don't wanna just ask him. i know this doesn't leave many options, but... (link)
Dear me or my friend,
If i were you i would try to watch how he acts around your friend. Maybe you could try to ask around the school to see if anyone knows who he likes...
Hope i helped,
Britt


I am a fast runner you see and I got asked to run this thing called the turkeytrot, but Iave to run in front of the whole school. I am araid of getting lastplace should I still run? (link)
Dear Should i run....
Do u like running??? Is it worth the chance?? Do u really think you will get in last place if u are fast?? Maybe you could try to convince one of your friends to run w/ u! If i were u, i would try it and if you place good maybe you could run for your school's track team! I am sure many other ppl feel the same way u do!

Signed,
Britt


I am into musical theatre and i met this guy while doing a show and i really liked him. Now we've sort of kept in touch, but i miss him so incredibly much. I've tried to see him a couple times but it hasn't worked out. What should i do?
~Confused~ (link)
Dear Confused,
Is it worth being in a relashionship if you dont ever c him?? Maybe you should just b friends unless you can figure out a way to keep in touch and see each other...

hope this helped,
britt


Hears the deal. I am into musical theatre, and once doing a show i met this guy. But, i really miss him , and obviously i really liked him. I've tried to see him a couple times but it hasn't worked out. HELP!

~A sad one~ (link)
Dear missing him...
could u tell he was right for you?? or did u just like him for his looks?? There are plenty of fish in the sea so if you arent goin to see him much maybe you should just try to find another crush. Maybe he will end up being one of your best friends!!!!

hope that helps,
britt
