Q: Okay i just took a pregnancy test..And i cant till if it is positive or negative... There is a very very dark blue line across where it would say negative and a line that is barly barly even there ( it kinda looks like it was already there but i cant tell) Has anyone had this happen before?

This hasn't happened to me but I've heard alot about it...sometimes the tester really messes up so you should try another one. and if the same happens....try going to get a pro one. It'll be more accurate...well it'll be very accurate

Q: I'm a terrible teriible TERRIBLE person!
I don't know how to fix this! Everytime I try to become a better person, a become a much much MUCH worse person. I was so jealous of my friend, perfect grades, hair, teeth, boyfriend, LIFE! I was just soo jealous. And I was failing civics. So I stole her project! I was at her house, and I stole it! Who does that? I'm the worst friend eveeeerr! Please help me, I can't tell the truth! I can't! I offered to help her with it tonight when she told me that she lost it, because I felt guilty. So I'm gonna try to fix this! But how? People, what can I do? I've told myself over and over again to learn from my mistakes and becoma a better person, but I don't! Ever, i keep messing up. I'm going to hell. I am. And I have no future. I hate my life and I hate myself and I need serious help. Not from a professional though, I don't want to do that. Just help me please, what can I do to become a better person??

I think this is a constat problem with girls and I'm in that situation alot. you feel less equal to her and maybe you don't realise something she's lackking u have. Comon chill oout...that project thing you need to chill!
Ask her if she wants some info for her project and try to help her. Nope you don't have to go by her house jus offer some kinda help.
Jus try to point out what she's bad at or what she doesn't have and you got. Remember she's your friend and this friendship sounds important to you...jus try to be the best you can. and anytime you think of hurting her or being jealous resite a mantra "she's my friend...she's my friend! She's my friend!!" and calm your self. don't rush into actions remember you're hurting her!

Q: guys you gotta help me here!
My brother had always been a very popular, very colourful, very fun outspoken person..
But yesterday, he came home..and went straight to bed (if you knew my brother you'd know there's definitely something wrong!) So I went in to his room, and he was asleep, and you could see that his pillow was wet from crying. But i decided he needed to go through it on his own. It would go over. But today he came home and did the same exact thing, so I went in to his room, and asked him about it (and he know's he can trust me, we usually tell eachother everything!) (by the way, I'm 15/f he's 13/m) and he just said "nothing, I'm tired" bt I wouldn't let go, and kept asking, telling him whatever it is, I'm here for him, I love him, he can trust me..and so on, and he just started crying, but wouldn't tell me, so I stayed for an hour in his room, next to him, and he wouldn't stop crying! He just started crying more and more, until he lost his breath. I'M SO WORRIED!! We both jst ended up sitting there crying..and I don't klnow what it could be, he usually tells me about his friend-problems, gf-problems, and I already know about all the family problems (trust me, our family is the family from HELL) but idk, what could it be? Why do you think he suddenly won't tell me what's going on with his life? What can I do to help him? Or to get him to open up?

Please help me, thank you!

Well it's probably just a boy thing. I guess it probably has something to do with everything. Maybe he's just tired of the world right now...this happens to me alot I jus come home and I cry and cry and I have no idea y...it's jus I'm ffed up with this world. Jus show him some support.

Q: ok well i drink slim fast i wanna no if it really works and if it does how long will it be before i see results thankz i rate 5s :]

Slim fast will not work by itself. It's like a fat burner pill...it cannot work unless it works with prooper eating and combined with a workout schedule.
I duno when you will see results because it's up too how much you work out and stuff....slim fast actually is basically a drink that fills you up...soo you eat less meals and when u burn fat you burn more.

The best thing to do is drink at least 3 bottles of water and eat healthy combined with a 4-6 day workout prgram.

And eating your meals on time are needed

Q: ok,well,i have split(some) ends,but i dont have the time to cut them off.I heard there was this thing from fructics for split ends but i dont know the name.is there one from frutics and if so whats the name?thankyou :]

Split ends are like a disease...it can't relly be cured. yes the prduct mite fill it up but it'll still be there. You should cut them out and then use something. There's a product called citre shine for frizz n split ends and it helps prevent them. but there's nuthin to cure them

Q: when on a dinner date, how should handling the check go?

should i, the woman, grab the book and look at it, or should i wait until my date picks it up?

should i ask him how much it is? should i take the money out of my purse? how do i handle a credit card ?

No wait till he pick it up. If he's a bf and u knoow him good u can ask if he need help...if it's a friendly date ya'll can split it...but as far as pay the whole bill...I think it's a man's handling unless he luks like he needs help.

Q: one of my bestfriends died and i need a song to put up on myspace to show i miss her and care!

4. the scrunch it and start from top to bottom

Good luck

Q: My throat is all swollen and sore. Its very hard to swallow, breath, and I cant talk anymore. I'm freezing cold; even during my volleyball game, when everyone was sweating and it was so hot. I haven't eaten in a few days, cause nothing will go down without excruciating pain.

I can't get to the doctor until Monday,
has anyone else had this? Is it just strep?

i had sorta the same thing but mine didn't have that cold thing. Mine was a bump and a sore in my throat and I had to get some antibiotics for it....if u feeel rellly ill maybe u shuld go to the hospital ASAP

Q: Well, i have had a friend for 1 1/2 years named "ally". i am asian, and only thought about my studies. "ally" is white. Well. back then when i met her, she only thought about studies too. Once she began 7th grade, she got all popular and preppy. She cared about her studies, but was more concerned with hanging out with popular girls, showing off and flirting with boys, and...SHOPPING. She also got so freaking dramatic and preppy...i didn't like it. I calmly told her about it and she was like "that's who i am, i can't help it". then we grew distant until she gave me a note expressing "her deep concern for our friendship". Now i don't know what to do. Naturally, i hate how she sort of ignores me to go flirt with other boys and forget me sometimes to hang with popular people. what should i do?

srry for the long question...but i really need help...

i rate high for good answers!

Well that's who she is and she wants to be your friend...so I guess it's a matter of u can accept her for a friend as she is. You really can't change her
