OK. My cousin is asking my boyfriend questions on her email with the subject of "kissing". It's my boyfriend and my cousin. They might be dating behind my back cuz they are good friends and they see eachother everyday. (link)
| |
This as you say could be leading into something here's what you do. Keep an eye on them and if you get really suspicious check his e-mail deleted messages if so. Check and see what he's doing behind your back and talk to your friend about don't keep it to yourself it might not seem right to tell her what's on your mind, but if you don't tell this could go to another level past you your cousin, your boyfriend, and your relationships.

Well, ok my friend Natalie lies a lot. She told me that she was dating Jon over the summer. I told one of my friends then we asked Jon and he said no. They I asked one of my friends, kate, thats friends with Nat if she told her that. Now tommorow kate is prolly gonna ask nat and nat is going to deny it. kate is probably going to believe natalie and idk why. what should I do if kate believes natalie that I was lying? (link)
| |
Have kate speak to one of your friends that have your back like Jon have her ask Jon and have Jon tell her the truth. Don't let Nat convince kate that your a lyer don't take that.

You think no one loves you well god loves you don't get worked up off of your social life. I've heard of people like you who say the same, you know what everyone tells everyone, that no matter what everyone's special. So I'm going to tell you you are special, maybe your hanging around the wrong crowd try hanging around your own not someone above your level or below. Try and make a bff.

my friend & my other friend, are in a HUGE fight. The one girl.. lets call her Candy, ahha. well here, let me explain a little bit of her past before i continue...
She dated a guy, named steve. well, they broke up.. like last week. So, now steve, likes me & candys bff, Cassandra. & cassandra said i don't know. So, now candy is all mad at cassandra, because cassandra likes candy & was saying all this stuff like.."its not fair, i've never even had a boyfriend & you & stacy (me) have had like 10." so we were like, umm ok.
So then, is she technically saying that she only wants to date him for a boyfriend?
& thenn anyways, also cassandra talks behind candys back like a TON. i mean like all the time. so we told her so now she says she can't trust casssandra anymore.
& all this stuff.
i feel bad that they are not going to be friends anymore. because candy is usually a total pusshover & shes pretty serious about this.. soo, is there anything i can say or do?
&.. about cassandra wanting to date steve.. well, i was thinking, "all is fair in love & war." even though were only in 8th grade, does that nesscarily still like count? because like candy & cassandra aren't very like... mature, mature. i'm like smarter then them when it comes to these things.. but i don't know exactly what to say for this one.
so any help, on like any tiny bit of this, would be GREATLY appreciated. (link)
| |
I'll tell you this both of those girls are just trying to act out. Be popular be heard and be seen. So just ignore them if they are true friends like u say they are im in the 8th Grade too and I've seen it a doen times before they'll make up on they're own and if not let that be their problem not yours. All they're doing ias putting each other down anyway, you say they're not very mature right but you are then be mature enough to step away and keep your eyes on the prize.

This boy & I fight a lot, over the dumbest things. Like I'll jokingly say something slightly rude, and he'll take it so so so personally and not talk to me for a week. We are extremely close, and getting in these small fights about every week stresses me out badly. Is there any tips you can give me on how to avoid these fights? (And he jokes too, I just don't take it as bad as he does) (link)
| |
Talk to him and tell him maybe you guys are too mature for them small fights. Tell him this is on your mind and if he can't take the small jokes that you throw at him then why can't he take it like a true person like you do.

okay well my best friend told me that anotheror one of my frinds sisters is well....a prostatute.
i didnt believe it at first but i assure u its tre, shees about 17 and dropped out of college after a year and well she workes in a a local mall, but shees a prostatute aswell, now i really dont want tohurt my friends feelings but i want to tell him aswell so he can sort it out so do i tell him or not? (link)
| |
On my behalf no, don't, don't get yourself caught up in a situation that you can't handle. First try and see if she'll admit it to him before you do if not, then don't do anything for a while if it continues tell him what more troubles could he be in.
|
My best friend told me a secret, and he told me not to tell anybody. It was about his ex. I didn't think it would be a big deal, so I told her, because we are so so so close.
and he got really mad at me.
and I really miss him. We havent spoken since.
what can I do or say to make it up to him?
I know it is my fault and I feel terrible about it. (link)
| |
Don't rush your apologies, yes it was wrong of you to do that first put yourself in his position would you want to talk to you either. Let him cool down and then apologie try giving him something he really likes like a present or something for make-up.

Well I know it's your friend and all but if it wa me I'd investigate not like spy-like but just search like. If this question you asked sounds like the way it sounds your friend could be in danger (rape) please do something don't let it sit back and happen and then fell it's all your fault later. Talk her out of it.

My friend keeps popping my pimples. It's gross. How can I make her stop? She randomly comes up to me and holds my face and BLAH. She didnt seem to understand 'Stop!' I hate going to class with blood smeared on my face.
(link)
| |
I'm sorry but if you keep letting your friend pop your pimples..lol.. let's just say my sister has a problem with popping her pimples and her whole face is covered with black dots. So whatever you do talk to your friend tell someone she has to stop otherwise this will happen.

Ok.....
Whats a gynocologist app. all about??
Im not a virgin.. but last time I went to the doctors, I was. Well... We all know how the doctors ask u if youve ever had sex before and whatnot..and I really don't feel like telling my doctor that Ive have had sex, but i have a feeling that they ask that question to make sure that you stay healthy. My boyfriend and I lost our virginites to eachother though, so I know that he didnt contract any diseases or anything from anyone else. We use a condom everytime, and I think I would know (from symtoms) if I had a serious disease or STD from having sex. I was wondering though, would it be terribly bad, if I lied to my doctor about having sex? Also, I DO NOT want her to tell my mom. CAN she do that? ??? .. Just wondering..
This same question goes for weed. 90% of people have tried weed. I, myself, have done it probably about two times. Doctors ask you if youve ever tried it..and I want to lie... Could they possibly know I have before? By like my pee sample or something? would it be such a crime to lie about this?? (link)
|
I know that it's hard never to let the parents find out but the good thing that can come out of his mouth to your mother is that at least you wore a condom.
It is terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible to never ever tell your doctor that you've had sex because although you used a condom you can still have HIV and HIV symptoms don't start to occur for years so for all you know you could have it and from not telling your doctor years from now you could start to have the symptoms just like everyone else in this world always thinks somethings okay but later on they foind out that they weren't okay all along you sound just like all of the other little girls who have HIV and AIDS right now in this world check it out on the internet you'll see that i'm telling the truth so yes tell your doctor so he can check you out.

I just found out that I have to work on Christmas Eve AND on Boxing Day. I work at a large department store. Now I'm really depressed. This is the first year that that's ever happened to me. I usually go spend a week at my grandmas who lives in another city, but this year all I can do is spend one night at my moms, who lives in town. Also, I usually go shopping on boxing day now I can't do that either.
How can I get over this depressed feeling?
(link)
|
The real question here is timing:
Try setting a date to go and see your mom for a limited time. Then the same for your grandmother. Then for boxing day go shopping with the spare timing that you have left. And I beleive you said you have to work which one is more important spending time with family or spending time at work bored to death think about it.

okay theres this person at school that I really hate! He is so mean to mean! He calls me a lesbian and I'm not one! What should I do!? He's really mean and I tried ignoring him but it doesn't work...I don't want to tell a teacher though because it would be very uncomfortable telling them what he calls me! Please help me! I'll rate 5's unless you're mean! (link)
|
If he really acts that way he's premature or maybe he likes you. Definetely likes you.
Well this is what you can do:
Try acting mean right back at him.
Try threatening him persuasively.
Try persuading him to leave you alone you know maybe sign a peace treaty.
Or the best advice I can give try talking to him and find out what he has against you. And try to fix it and if he says he doesn't have anything against you then ask him why he treats you that way is it something he heard like a rumor about you or something... Feel free to ask me more questions if you need them either here or josephballard4@hotmail.com okay.

Well i think your askin how do you stop sweating so much and here is the answer:
Try I guess to move kinda slower you know pace yourself.
Try breathing in more cold air than hot.
Try breathing also in a pace.
Try also breathing in 2's.
This always works.

Okay well every year around this time of year (December, winter time...) I ALAWYS get sick and I mean sick to my stomach. It's usually the only time of the year I get this sick. Anyway that's not really the point. I was wondering is there anything I can do right now. Lately it's just been dry heeves (sp?) I mean I've thrown up once since about 8-8:15 which was about 8:45 and that's only because I didn't care, I was really thirsty so I drank some Ginger Ale right after throwing up. But is there any thing I can eat or drink that shouldn't upset my stomach too much, and right now it's about 10 minutes to 9 and the last time I threw up was 8:45 because I drank something but technically not including the dry heeves which every once in a while left me with a little bit of regurgitation, was like 7:30. 7:45.
Yeah so just how long should I wait and what type of foods or beverages would be best to have. I'll just go with it's been about 15 minutes since I last threw up... thanks, sorry it's gross. (link)
|
First of all start eating more fruit than you do beverages that way you feed yourself and are giving yourself natural fluids at the same time, also after eating some cut apples or pineapples you know any type of fruit IN SMALL PIECES IF YOU EAT IN BIG BITES YOU'LL THROW UP TRUST ME THAT'S PROBABLY WHY AND IF YOUR DRINKING GINER ALE DON'T TAKE BIG GULPS TAKE SMALL SIPS AT A TIME UNTIL YOUR NOT THIRSTY ANYMORE. I wrote those in big words so you can follow that advice more then these lowercase words advice. okay so do that and also if you get really hungry try eating a salad. IN SMALL BITES WITH ONLY ITALIAN DRESSING NO HEAVY DRESSINGS LIKE RANCH OR SOUR CREAM.

Hey all! Today all the girls in my family are making cookes!(about 10 of us) We know we are going to make chocolate chip. But my boyfriend said he likes peanut-butter. (any SIMPLE recipies?) and his favorite candies are twix and butterfinger. My boyfriend and I have been together almost two years, and this is our second Christmas together, so making him cookies is no big deal.
I am going to surf the web for some easy holiday cookie recipies!! So, if you have any recipies, they dont have to be one of the cookies above.
I highly doubt that we will be able to go to the store to get more supplies to make the cookies.
I'll rate and leave feedback! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!

*please dont tell me to see a doctor or talk to my mom, i would ask a question here if i wanted to do that (link)

Have you tried just waiting a little longer those symptoms could be bad symptoms of well you know your period. Basically let me put it like this try speaking to a private doctor you can ask for one at a hospital sign up for one trust me private doctors are doctors who just check in with you no one else not even your parents so try it.

I'm a university student living away from home and I've just returned to my family home for the Christmas period. I brought home a bag of presents, but it appears that one present slipped out from where it was stored before I brought it home (I don't think I've lost it, just left it behind).
The gift in question should have been half the present I'd be giving to my elder sister. Should I buy something else, or would it be acceptable to give her the remaining half when I next see her, around the 8th of January? As it's half of the present she'd still have something from me under the tree on Christmas day, but I feel bad for being disorganised and wonder if I should get her another token thing so that it doesn't appear that I've been much less generous to her than to my other sisters on Christmas Day. On the other hand, I'm sure she'd understand and I will see her relatively soon after Christmas as she lives much nearer to me than the rest of my family. Any thoughts? (link)

It would be terrible to give someone half a present I swear i'm goin to tell my feelings that's raggedy try buying her a new gift and I would reccomend maybe a fake necklace

At the begining of the year my biology honors teacher had us fill out a form about us. It asked what we wanted to be careerwise. I put that I wanted to be a journalist. The other day he read off what everyone wanted to be. The other kids wanted to be surgeons, and marine biologists..all really important things. When he got to my name he said "Journalist!....Good luck with that. She'll never get a job"
I was so embarassed! Everyone else had really important careers picked out and mine was so stupid. I'm not sure if I want to be a journalist anymore but now I have no idea what I want to do. I have to look at colleges next year and I have no clue what I want to major in. Can anyone help me? (link)
| |
The only reason why he said that is because in the future prices are going to go up as you can see on the internet but career income won't basically what i'm tryin to say is do not I repeat do not let anyone blow your dreams away stick with it if you want to become a journalists become one never and i mean never let anyone take that from youbut on the other hand let journalism be your 2nd hand job get a first hand job that pays a lot and journalism can be your activity job you know.
