Ok- I usually am the one giving out advice... but I am stumped on my own problem. Well here is what happened:

I used to have a best friend named Justine. We hit it off great from the start. After the first month we'd known eachother, we spent the night at each other's houses almost every weekend. We had only known eachother for a year when the inevitable happened- but we'd shared so much together. I had told her all of my deep dark secrets, and she had told me some of her own.
Well- this summer, I had been at my cousin Ashley's house- and we had been chatting with boys on AIM. I told Justine about it when I saw her- and for some reason, she FLIPPED. She wouldn't talk to me, and she ignored all my e-mails to her.
This year, I went back to middle school, and Justine had changed completely over the summer. She had all these cheerleader friends, and she was acting like she was better than everyone else. She even sits in front of me in my English class.
This is where the problem comes in. I don't want to be Justine's friend anymore- she is such a brat- but I do want her to act civil towards me (in English she is always sighing, like she hated being around me- and she tells people, when I can hear- that she hates me). What can I do to make her stop acting so immature???

Sadly,some people are just like that!There are no words to get them to grow up already!!I think she may have been jealous that you were spending time with your cousin,and you seemed to move on so quickly from your friendship with her!You seemed so happy without her,and it probably made her jealous and insecure and so instead of just dealing with it like a grown up,she chose to wig out and act like a brat about it!!If she's treating you this way,and she's willing to change completely just for popularity reasons,she's probably not the kind of friend you want anyway!!! I wouldn't worry about it hunnie,just let her go do her thing,and if she sighs or makes comments about you just laugh and shrug it off!You'll find better,believe me! ;)

im 13, and my dad is turning 60 soon. i know thats not too weird if you have older parents, but my mom is only 40. and my dad is overweight but he's losing a lot. he used to be 300 lbs now he's 260. i know that thats good for him. and his dad lived to be 85, and his mom is 80 and shes still living. but im so scared of losing him before i grow up because i know all my friend's dads will be walking them down the isle when they get married but im soo scared that he wont be there for mine. how do i stop worrying? and im scared i'll break down while im talking to him about it so how can i? thanks

I have older parents too,so I can relate!I'm 20(almost 21) and my dad is 58.He's had problems w/weight and he's had heart trouble all my life(a heartattack when I was 5,triple bi-pass surgery when I was 15).It's hard I know.You worry about them so much.There have been nights when I've sat up all night listening to my dad snoring,cuz as long as he was snoring,I knew he was ok.Haha,it's those kind of weird irrational things you think of.I wish that there were some magic words I could tell you,but there aren't.As long as your dad is getting his health under control,and obviously he has genetics on his side,there's no reason he won't live to be 110,heehee!!You just cherish your dad,love him,and have fun with him!!!If you start to worry all the time he will see that in you,and then he'll worry about his little girl!!That's how daddy's are!!And if you spend your whole life afraid of,or trying to prepare for death,then you're not really living.Always remember that.If you need anything else,feel free to leave me a message in my inbox!! :)

ok well me and my bf say we love each other and have been 2gether for a while... but he told me he still has feelings for his x *loves her still* but i no tht he loves me and i no tht they were 2gether for a long tym but she treated him so badly and it hurts me 2 no tht and so i dont no y he loves her but i no being 2gether tht long tht he is still gonna have feelngs for her... so can someone help me out w/ some suggestions on how 2 talk 2 him about this, and should i be jealous tht he still has feelings for her?

Be honest with him sweetie!!Let him know how that makes you feel.Tell him definitely doesn't make you love him any less but that it does hurt/bother/worry you that he still has feelings for his ex.I would tell him that he needs to really give this some thought because you don't want to continue in a relationship where your boyfriend is thinking of another girl!!!Whether it's good or bad,you deserve a straight answer out of him.You don't wanna allow him to string you along or to put off telling you his true feelings.It's good that he was honest and upfront with you about his situation.Hopefully he will keep up that pattern!!Best of luck hun,and let me know how it goes!!!Hope this helps some! :)

what would be a good kind of outfit to wear on the first day of highschool?

Hmm..well it depends on what the weather is like where you live!!But maybe a cute pair of jeans,like hip-huggers,and a cute lil sleeveless top,with some black or brown platform boots!!Hehe!That's my style,but just a suggestion!Heehee!! ;)

Hey..ok, whenever I try to put a picture of me on mii site it says that `You tried to upload a picture, but it was greater than 15K in filesize so it wasn't uploaded.` Do you know what that means, and if so can you tell me how I can upload one..? Thanks guys!

Sure,you want to pick out the picture you want to use,and use one of your photo programs(I use Dell Image Expert),like Photoshop or MGI Photo Suite,anyplace where you can edit your picture.Then you want to scale down the size of your image until it is 15k or smaller.Your photo edit program should tell you the size of your image!!

Yes. It's another one of those Dating complaints. Although I know there are way too many of these, I'm afraid I'm going to have to contribute.

I'm currently dating a young man who is five years older than I am. (I am fourteen and he is nineteen, if that helps any.)

No one really knows that I am with him. I haven't told my friends nor have I told my family, of course. I don't want to be forced to break up with him just because my family believes the age difference is too much. *shrug*

Anyways...One of the problems in our relationship is...we have never met. We're dating over the internet. And, although this may seem silly and (that I know personally and who knows him personally and has met him) and ever since the first time I talked to him, I found myself attracted to him. He asked me out and we've been together ever since.

Of course...It all seems rather...odd. I've never had an internet relationship, before, and I've never had a relationship this serious. I've actually thought about my future with this guy. Marriage, kids, etc.

I really don't know that much about him, though. And he's hesitant to tell me very much.

Should I get out of this relationship? Should I ask him to tell me more about himself? Is there something that I need to do? I'm confused...And I know I don't really have any specific questions. I just need advice.

Thank you. :)

Well,internet relationships can be pretty tough since you're not able to actually see and interact with this guy.I would also take the fact that he is hesitant to share much information about himself,as a red flag.Personally I would let him know that he's not really endearing himself to you by keeping things from you!Also,although you probably don't wanna hear it,the age difference is a pretty big thing.There's a major difference emotionally,mentally,and physically between 14-yr-olds and 19-yr-olds.Trust me,when you get older you'll see what I mean,you'll change SO much SO many times.And often you'll look back and think some of the things you did at 14,15,16 were sooooo dumb!Haha! I've been there!I think your best bet is to look for a nice guy your age or at least closer to your age who lives around you.A new school year is starting,and with that comes endless possibilities!!!!Keep in touch,let me know how everything is going!!!! :)

hey i have these new black adn pink sneakers theyre mainly black but i was jus wonderin wut could i wear wit it cuz like i personally think it looks weird if im wearing shorts with it or a skirt with it i feel like i should b wearing pants with it all the tym... wut do u guys think?

I think sneakers look cute with shorts and capri pants!!!But if you don't like that look,don't wear them that way!!Hehe! Wear them with your jeans and pants!!Maybe find some belts or tops in similar colors that would really look good with them! :)

ive liked this one guy for awhile now.. and hes always telling people he hates me and stuff and when i ask him about it he says it isnt true. the other day i told him to be honest.. and if he didnt like me as a friend to just tell me so ill be better off.. but he told me he still likes me n stuff .. i was thinking he might just be saying it to get me to be on His Side of this fight thats going on but im not sure. During the school year he liked me but was embarassed to ask me out b/c of what his friends would say. is that maybe why he tells people he hates me but tells me he doesnt? im so confused!

Sounds like this guy is a little too wishy-washy for his own good!!You need to confront him and tell him "Look,you need to be straight with me.Do you like me or not,because I'm not gonna sit around and wait for you for the rest of my life.I'm not gonna wait for nothing!!So is there something worth waiting for?" If this guy is "embarassed" to ask you out for ANY reason,much less his friends,then he's probably not the kind of guy you wanna be with anyway.You want a guy who will treat you good,respect you,and be proud to be with you!!You don't deserve any less than that!! ;)

hey im 13 nd me nd my boy friend recently spilt but i still like him nd i just found out that he still likes me to but i dont no wat to do cuz my best (guy) friend likes me now nd my ex nd him are really great friends nd they both asked me out tonite nd i said i have to think about it to both of them wat do i do!! thanks in advance!

Well,you do just what you said,you think about it.Weigh your options.Think of which guy you are most comfrotable around,which guy treats you the best,which one makes you laugh the most,which one is the most fun to be with,which one do you have more in common with,etc.Then you give them their answers as gently as possible.Make it clear that you don't want to come between their friendship,and you really care for each of them,but that you've made your decision and you hope that they can respect that.Best of luck hunnie!! Just follow your heart!!

okay school starts in 3 weeks and i wanna loose as much weight as i can before it...i weigh 105 to 107 and i wanna loose it! i need to loose on my thighs too they're pretty big. i excersise by going to the gym i only go like 2 to 3 times a week and play bball...what're some best ways to loose weight? how much could one loose in one week? by doing what? help and thanx!

Hunnie,I don't think you need to lose weight at all!!!That's pretty skinny!!Hehehe Also,about your thighs,people who are athletic and work out a lot can have bulkier or what appears to be bigger legs.It's just that you're so strong and have so much muscle!! And losing weight really quickly is never healthy,remember that.But I would reccomend trying something like Yoga or Pilates.They're both really great exercises,which increase your flexibility and your overall health.They're also great for helping you to relax and relieve tension!!!Hope this helps some! :)

i'm 5'2 and weigh 118 lbs. am i overweight. if so how can i lose weight? thanks

No,I don't think so at all.But the thing about it is,are you happy with yourself??If you feel like you would be more comfrotable in your own skin if you lost a few pounds,then I say go for it!But stay away from any crash diets or depriving yourself of food.The trick is to eat several small meals a day.Like,if you're on the go,in the afternoon or between meals,just grab a little snack,like a handful or grapes or strawberries or a cup of yougurt,or even some pretzels,whetever it is that you like!!!And for exercise you can always take walks and then work your way up to taking jogs around the block or something.It's also great to go to your local YMCA(at least for me,lol).There you have access to good things like the treadmill,stationary bike,and I even like SOME of the Nautalous(sp?) machines.Also,you can swim some laps or play a game of racketball,which is great for relieving tension and getting out any frustrations!Hehe!But like I said the most important thing is feeling happy and comfrotable in your own skin!!!Hope I was able to help you some!!! :)

i'm 13 years old and i'm pregnant. i was gonna consider doing abortion but i dontknow anymore. i'm afraid to tell my parents that i'm pregnant cause i'm only 13. the only person that knows is my sister. should i have her take me to the doctor and do the abortion, or tell my parents that i'm pregnant. i really need your help! thanks

I think you and your sister should both sit your parents down,an you explain to them what's going on.This way you've got your sis there for support.Let your parents know how you're feeling about it.Then,you guys can discuss all of your options,and what you think is best for you.You'll definitely wanna get to a doctor and begin prenatal care if you plan on continuing the pregnancy.There are lots of places that can sit down with you and inform you about all of your options,and weigh the pros and cons.Here are some great links for you http://www.gravityteen.com/pregnancy/pregnancy.cfm http://www.etters.net/teen.pregnancy.htm A good one to look at with your mom is: http://kidshealth.org/parent/positive/talk/teen_pregnancy.html . It's important to keep an open and honest relationship with your parents.They should appreciate and be proud of your bravery and honesty in telling them.I wish you all the best hunnie,please keep in touch with me and let me know how you are doing!:)

ok..heres my thing you guys...

*my best friend lost her virginity last year and alot of people consider her a whore now :(
but anyways...my boyfriend wants me n him to lose ours now for our 1 year anniversary hes 16 and im 14...i really dont know if i should becuz i dont wana be considered a whore or nething like what happened to my friend....please help me in doin the right thing!!
signed,i honestly dont know what to do

14 is awfully young to be getting involved in a sexual relationship and all that comes with it.Plus,the fact that you are hesitant and are questioning it,shows that you aren't ready yet.When you're ready,you will feel it,and I don't just mean you'll be all hot n' bothered!I mean you will feel it inside that this is the right guy,the right time,the right thing to do.You don't wanna rush those kinda things,they should be special.Especially your first time,because,you can't get another first time!!!And any guy that can't respect that,isn't worth the time of day,much less your body,heart & soul!!

does ne one know a song that's like
"I can see you"
...
"Summer of.."

that's all i really know of it. it's a guy rock band.

That's "Boys of Summer" by The Ataris.That song was originally sung by Don Henley,the lead singer of The Eagles! ;) Since I see other people put up some lyrics to that other song here's some lyrics to this song,so you can be sure it's the right one!!
"I can see you,your brown skin shinin in the sun
You got your hair pulled back and your sunglasses on
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong,
after the boys of summer have gone". Hope I helped!;)

what do girls do when they start to get sick of a guy?

Hmm..I'm gonna assume you're asking for pointers on how to tell if a girl is sick of you,cuz that's the way it sounds!Hope I'm right!But anyway,some of the same things a guy would do,not returning phone calls,or always having an excuse to either not answer their phone or get off of the phone.Suddenly she seems to have stopped getting online.She might be less physically affectionate or seem real distant when you try to talk to her or hug her or anything.And some girls just do the dirty work,and dump the guy!!Usually girls will try and be nicer about it,and worry more about hurting someone's feelings.But trust me,if a guy is just gettin on our LAST nerve,you WILL know!!Hahaha! ;)
