Q: 14/f I have been friends with Greg for 12 years! We're good friends and have been forever. I found out fairly recently that he likes me romantically, the thing is that I don't like him back. He has been telling my friend that he would do anything to make me like him back. I don't want to hurt his feelings, but I need him to know that I don't like him and there is no future for us. I want him to let go and move on to someone else. How do I make him realize that he needs to move on and how can I help him? I don't want to lose him as a friend.

sometimes you really can't do that.. greg has to figure this one out on his own. it'll take time and probably will put some strain on yourself as well to put up with his sweet lovings but hang in there. it happens to me alot too.. which really sucks since like all the guys i actually like see me as their sister and all the guys that like me i see as a brother hehe. but if you really don't like him (in that way) then you just dont. don't feel guilty about it or give in and give him a chance just because maybe things will work out. stand your ground because in the end it'll hurt him worse if he knew you were only going out with him to "test" things out or to make him happy.

Q: sO a friend of mine told me that if u take aderol... that it will make u not hungry aka you'll loose weight... does that work? and is it safe? thanks!

sadly i can't exactly answer your question directly.. but i would't put your health in the hands of a medicine. there are plenty of other ways of dropping those pounds like good diets and exercise and working out and such.. but umm if no one on this site can really tell you if its safe or not.. then you can check with your doctor or pharmacist or look online and see what they say about it. goodluck! =D

Q: okay hurr it goes i went out with this guy over the summer for like a month and a half and i truley believed i loved him then he cheated on meh and broke up with me for my best friend. Well they are broken up now but i still love this guy but he hates me now n i really dnt know why but i kant get him out of my mind i love him sooo muchh and i want to be back in his arms sooo bad wut should i do?

the guy's an ass.. your friend shouldn't have done that if she was a true freind.. especially if she knew how much you like him.
he's seriously a loser.. i bet he's mad at you b/c he thinks you were the reason they broke up or something.. the only thing that can help or i can suggest to you is to take it day by day.. these kind of things don't go away in a second like a miracle.. they take a while to ease itself into a scar instead of an open wound. hope i helped

well luckily i've never had a boyfriend that was unfaithful.. but if i were you... :
i'd talk to the guy deeply and make sure he knows that you still like him and that it really really REALLY hurt you when he did that. And tell him that if he ever does it again then it's 100% over no more chances bye bye don't forget to close the door on your way out; no matter how much it hurts or how uch you like him. Secondly.. tell your friends thta you may be setting yourself up for something kinda stupid and it may end up hurting you in the end.. BUT they've got to accept things. you can't help who you like and you respect the fact that they're looking out for you.

Q: what is the exact purpose of the gyno? I know that they look at your parts and crap, but what the hell are they looking for in general? do all people go there?
~thanks~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
all females go there; yes.
and they look at your organs down there to make sure that basically everything down there is fucntioning properly and well. they check for infections and you can talk to them if you feel any sort of pain or if your periods aren't going correctly. etc etc... hope i answerd your question well enough :)

Q: Well I like this guy and he said he liked me. He used to like this other girl too and they still like eachother I think.They claim not to but I know they really do. He invites me everywhere all the time, but I just dont think he likes me. I mean he never is the one 2 iniciate a convo[he's not shy!] or nething but he'll say hey or w/e and he invites me places all the time. What do you think?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sorry dear but i don't think he likes you.. sadly i was kinda in the position.. maybe he's just one of those guys that seem flirtatious but realyl doesn't mean to send out any signals. it happens sometimes.... if it bothers you that bad, then talk to him about it and see if he's aware of what he's putting you through. goodluck!

Q: Vicki,
I have problems concentrating in school. I keep focusing on my choice in guys. Watch them walk away, watch them laugh. Gah im like obbsessed! lol what do i do?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
haha we all get a little hormone crazy at times. you've got to really focus on your school life because the last thing you want is your parents nagging at you about your "crappy" grades and wondering what you're doing at school. Just try to focus on how school actually IS important lol and this is your future.. you've got plenty of time to look at the cuties (trust me =P). It's ok every once in a while to glance off at someone but don't turn it into an obession lol.
look over things.. do you really need a guy? or are you just kinda needing something to distract you from school.. get down and dirty with your mind (ew not in that way) haha.. i mean think things through.. maybe you're just not really "busy" at school so you need something else to focus on. try joining a club or even if you really have to.. get a friend to snap you back from lala land and help yourself get into that routine. hope i helped =X

Q: I put this in Friendships because I didn't nkow where else to put this. Well, I'm a new student this year and I've made a few friends. Everyone's really nice to me and so far there hasn't been one person who dislikes me, but this one guy in my 3rd Hour class. He's part of the "popular crowd" but he just really gets on my nerves. If I just turn around to glance at something, he goes "TURN AROUND, I DONT WANT TO LOOK AT YOU!" Today, he was walking in front of my desk and he said something mean (I forgot what it was) and so naturally, I hit his arm playfully and he walked away. When he put his books on his table he walked over to me and said, "Don't touch me because you're really ugly." That one hit me really hard. I never really thought anything about my looks or stuff like that but now since I'm new to the school and he said that I'm starting to feel self conscious. The other day a girl pointed me out and said, "Isn't she so pretty?" but when he makes fun of me(which happens probably everday) I get hurt and pushed down for a while. I'm sorta friends with some of his friends but I'm not really that good enough friends to tell them to talk to him for me, especially since he's dating one of them! I'm sick of him always hurting me and always trying to push him down. I've tried telling him to stop but obviously he won't quit. I don't know what to do...

god what a jack ass.. i know some guys like that at my school. don't let him get to you. he's just some queer punk that thinks he can get somewhere by hurting other people. he's a really big loser and you really should ignore him. it's great that you didnt really have any subconcious feelings about yourself.. i wish i was still like that lol. but it's obvious that you're a really cool person to hang out with (seeing how easiyl you've made friends already) and i bet you're really pretty.. (or else that girl woudlnt have pointed that out). focus on that and don't let one stupid guy ruin a great new school for you. =]

don't worry.. it'll pass over in a day or two.. in the mean time just advoid the girl and don't try to fight nasty or anything.. that'll just get you into trouble and make you look more like a fool. this girl is a loser and she shouldnt be spreading lies; that's just gay. one day you'll look back on this and be like.. ah hah loser! lol

Q: ppl always say if the love is strong enough, not distance can separate the two person. this is not true i think. I met this girl on line, and she is a angle. I enjoy talkin to her very very much. i would talk to her for hours on aim feeling as if only a minute has gone buy. lol ya i sound like a idoet. the thing is, because she goes to another school, i never see her and thus the friendship died down. And now that i'm in high school, the chance for a decent conversation is even less. so inevitable, we stoped talkin all together. this is very sad, because she is one of the few girls i ever opened my self up to. we still consider eachother as great friends, but distance is the relationship a memory only. so i dont know what to do. i really do want ot talk to this special girl again, but how can i overcome distance?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
umm.. distance is really tough and sometimes you just kinda fade apart after a while.. but there'll be times when you two will need each other or something will just happen and you guys will just be so much closer. You just have to wait it out.
It's really cool that you've found a girl that you can really hang out and open up with. I don't think a friendship like that will like all together disappear.. but highschool is so hard and it does kinda complicate the relationship; even if the relationship is barely there. hang in there. =]

if you are posivite they are mentally capable.. then try to help them mentally stop themselves.. if it persists for more than a few weeks or it gets worse at any time (like deeper cuts or even scarier ideas/attempts) report it to a couselor or adult immediately.. but in the mean time try coaxing them *depending on how long they've been cutting* and see if you can help with.. b/c most of the time it's just either stress or family related crap and friendship can really help with alot of that stuff.. also DON'T get fusterated with them because it'll only worsen it and make them feel more pitiful or uesless as it is and make them feel stupid or impudent in thinking that they are stupid for even thinking abotu cutting (which will only worsen it and make them cut or want to cut more). support then all the way and put on a brave face. you can also recommdent they seek couseling or talk to a family meber about it *if that's possible.. in some cases that's not and it could only make things worse* or recomment a whatcha mah call it.. teen crisis hot line. sometimes they can really help.. always remind them that they'r enot stupid and that they are not alone. because really they're not. there's about half of the people at arnold that are still cutting and probably more than half of cy-falls that are too..let them know they shouldnt have to deal with their probelms alone

just casually one day be like...
blank.. we need to talk.. i really like you alot but we're moving too fast
blank: what do you mean?
well.. it's cute and all that we love each other and blah blah blah.. but it seems like we're jumping from one romantic love phrase to another in a second (corny sounding know.. haha you try to fix my errors)... etc etc.. and play it off and see how it goes.. after you get into the conversation about it for a while.. hopefully you'll be more at ease and relaxed about the conversation and topic enough to move on and add in your own comments.

Q: Sorry... this is a sex question and there are somewhat graphic content. Not really bad but if you're young, you might not want to read this. Please only OLDER columnists answer this. I don't want advice from an inexperienced 13-14 year old. Someone who knows what I'm going through would help. And so... here's my question....
Hey, I'm 14/f and my boyfriend is 16. Yesterday I was at his house and we were doing sexual things and then I told him to go get a condom. (he uses them normally for self pleasure so it doesn't get anywhere...) So he went upstairs and got it but when he came back down I was crying. I don't know why I was crying. I really feel like I'm ready to have sex with him. We've been together for 2 years and we love eachother very much. It's weird though, I know that I'm physically and emotionally ready to do it it's just that, whenever we are about to, I get scared. Is this normal? Can anyone help me out?
PS- I'm a virgin and so is my boyfriend and we both want to lose our virginity to eachother.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if you don't mind my advice then dont' worry take it (I'm seriously not trying to make it sound rude lol)
But although I've never been sexually active with any of my former boyfriends i know alot of emotional crap and love crap lol. i'm wise beyond my years (so i'm told) but down to the serious crap:
your crying could be linked to several things...
maybe the crying is a sign that you aren't really all that ready (Even though you believe that you are).
or the crying could be just from confusion of since you are pretty young and confused about if this is correct or not. sex IS a big and serious thing and i really do hope that you are prepared. it's good that you two are virgins and still using protection.
But back to your actual problem...
really take some time and really look at things.. you've waited 14 years to have sex so would some more time really hurt you? it seems like your boyfriend is very devoted and understanding and if you really aren't all that certain (like 110% certain) then i bet he'll understand you want to wait.
Loosing your virginity isn't a contest; it should be something beautiful and wonderful in which every moment be happy and enjoyable (in the good clean way lol).
It's totally normal to be scared and even cry before it. This is a major deal and a moment you won't get back. So it makes total sense that you could be frightened. Just make sure that you take note that maybe this is something that your subconcious mind is trying to tell you.

Q: okay well i usually get my period around every 21 days.
i was supposed to get it like 5 days ago but it never came
i know its normal for periods to be irregular at this age but i've had my period for 4 YEARS now.
so why did it skip? what are some possible reasons? help im scared!
and im not pregnant because i never had sex before.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
there are loads of possibilities...:
--*i have some really athletic friends (and apparently to them) they like never even feel their periods or rarely get cramps or even periods because their body is so in shape so maybe if you've been working out lately or getting more exercise then that's why you skipped
--* or maybe you've been really stressed out lately and your hormones and body is just off balance. sometimes stress can cause a delay in your period or a skip
--*also maybe some of the food you've been eating lately has a role in all of this..
the list goes on but im just really tired (lol) so not much comes to mind.. those are the most likely top 3 theories that come to my mind.. if you skip again next month *preferably it's usually after no period for 3 months* then go check with your doctor and make sure there's no infections or anything wrong "down there".

Q: i need help & fast. how do you scrunch your hair ? i used moose but minez not working so great. i need help & fast !
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ummm if our definitions of scrunch are the same.. then this is the system my friends use *i dont scrunch my hair alot*
they divide their hair into 3 sections.. : top middle and bottom (by the way your hair should be damp/wet with gel in it)
and then you take the sections and twist it tightly and put it in a bun. go get some sleep and in the morning unwravel them. don't forget to run some more gel through 'em to make them last the day.
i hope i helped =X.. tell me how it goes!

Q: 15/f god sometimes i hate myself. im really outgoing when im around my best friends and the people i've known my whole life. but when i meet new people i act all weird. tonight we had a football game and my new friend invited me to hang out with her friends. so when i first met them i was all cool and outgoing, but then we sat on the bleachers and i didnt say a word and they talked. the whole night i just sat there. cause i had nothing to say except random stuf. and everytime i talked they were like shocked to hear me actually say something. i seriously wanted to run away and die. now im afraid theyre gonna think im boring. i dont know what to do.........
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
you're soo not alone! i've got a billion friends like that.. heck even i'm like that at times.. i'll be like the dumbest and funniest and weirdest person ever and then one minute im like so quiet and kept to myself, you know? and besides.. these are like what? 3 people out of like 3945830958 others. if they think you're boring then that'll just give you a small challenge of proving to them you're not. it's not your fault that you just dont really have much to contribute to their conversations..but next time if you want.. then try to steer the convo to something you like or you know will get you talking. or bring up a story about one of your friends or an event or something that happened. first impressions AREN'T everything.

Q: There is this one kid who goes to my school and his name is Jamie. He's been at my school since second grade and I have always just thought he was kind of an annoying and weird kid. He used to like me and he still flirts with me but I have always sort of acted like I hated him (because i thought i did). Anyway I figured out that all this time I have liked him. It seems like a good thing (because he might still like me) but there is a problem...He's moving to Hong Kong in January! He's kind of a geek in my grade but he thinks he's really popular and stuff and I was going to tell him right away that I like him but then I decided that it would be really weird if he didn't still like me too and then he would tell everyone that I like him and then I would be thought of as a loser for the rest of my life at school. So after that I thought that maybe I would tell him on his last day of school but I'm not sure if that is the right thing to do....Please help me...SOON!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
although it would be romantic to tell him on the last day.. him embrace you and tell you that you've been the love of his life forever and that the ship goign to hong kong is nothing compared to your beautiful eyes and lips.. it's not right.. haha
tell him.. scrwe the other people and waht coudl happen.. if he's jerk enough to tell people that omg look at that loser girl that likes me.. then it's really not worth anything. tell him straight off that you like him now and that you were stupd to ignore it (subconciously). and see where things go.. who knows.. this long distance thing might actually work!

this site has been down for a while but i'm starting it up again. i've been really busy with school work and other activities but now you can ask me questions again.
anyways about myself, i've gone through alot in my life and it's all made me stronger so i can relate to nearly any situation. i really love people. when i get older i do plan on doing something in this sort of field, maybe psychiatry. i'm currently a junior in highschool and i devote all of my time to either my friends, theatre, or school. yeah i'm sort of a nerd. if i can't get on here to reply to your questions and its urgent then you can always feel free to IM me on AIM and i'll try to help you on there. i'm basically always on.
