Um yeah, anyways.
My name is Amanda.
I am 16.
I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability, but be warned, I am brutally honest.
So I might come off as being mean, but sometimes the truth hurts.
I'm not saying that to be mean, because I'm really a nice person.
And if you plan on sending me a question in my inbox, please use proper English.
I probably will not respond if you type LyKe DiS or IN ALL CAPS or if y00 cnt spl if yur lyfe dpended on it.
Have a nice day! :D
advice
last summer i met this guy..he came to missouri(which is where i live) cause he was visiting his grandma! well we met and had a blast together and i really liked him..only downside was he lives all the way in washington! well ever since we've met we have talked all the time on the phone and internet and hes been saying for quite a long time that he loves me and wants to be with me..i also feel the same way..i just dont know because he lives all the way in washington so we wouldnt really see eachother all that much! he said that him and his friend are coming down here this summer for a week to a week and a half and he wants to spend the whole time with me so im pretty excited about that! and hes talked about after he graduates and goes to college for 2 years coming here and living here so we can be together..he always says he feels like we are suppose to be together and i feel the same way i just dunno what to do! please help! sorry this is kinda long!
Well..If you two truly loved each other, then being so far away shouldn't matter. And if you are patient enough, the two years he has in college will fly by and you two will be together before you know it. And if he does come to visit you for a week or week and a half, just enjoy the time you spend with him then. Also, if it is possible, perhaps call him or e-mail him when he is away.
Good luck to you two!
I hope this helped XD

Well my family is a family with 5 kids. We are running sort of low on money. How couild I help them out. I mean my mom could nopt even buy shampoo the other day!
Do whatever you can to make money. For example, mow lawns, babysit, etc. Hopefully that will help with your family. Also try to talk your mom or dad into getting a job (if they don't already have one)
I hope this helped! XD

I have this ex-girlfriend, ok? And see what happened is she just broke up with the guy that she broke up with me for. And I'm kinda worried that she might try to go back out with me just because I'm their and I'm familiar. Plus we also were lightly flirting last time we were together, which was about a month ago so I think I'm safe. What should I do to let her know, without a doubt, that I won't get back with her now, but do it lightly so it's not really noticeable?
All you need to do is when she starts coming on to you (if she does) just get up and walk away. That will definately give her the idea that you dont want to get back together.
I hope this helped XD

im a 14/f, almost 15, and im around 5'4 or 5'5 and about 135 pounds, but im muscular. how many shots would be safe to drink? i drink for fun, but i want to be sure i dont get blood alcohol poisioning. what would the safe amount to drink be?
You shouldn't be drinking at all girl! You are too young to drink! Do you know how much damage that can do to you!? You especially shouldn't drink if you don't know when to stop!

how do i get my advice column known and have people ask me questions?
Just be yourself. Find a style of answering peoples questions.First start off answering public questions.Be brutally honest! That way people can see your advice and perhaps they will like the advice you give. Then you will start getting people asking you questions. Eventually you will be known.
I hope this helped XD

My mother has been getting on my nerves since i was 7 years old. She judges me, yells at me, swears at me, makes fun of me, and flat out makes me sick. I even started to cut myself because of her, but i eventually stopped after 1 year because my friends helped me out. But i cannot take it anymore. My dad & I are bestfriends, i tell him everything, but i dont tell him about my mother. Just because i dont want them to split up or anything. What can i do to make my mom shutup? Plus, i have many brothers, she loves them, talks to them, hugs them, and compliments them. Its just plain sick. Im sick of her act shes pulling agaisnt her ONLY DAUGHTER. Sometimes i do NOTHING and she says, oh god i wish i had another son. I havent told anyone about this, but all my friends know how she is, and i have always hated her. I see all my close friends spending time with thier moms and having close relationships. I run to my friends house to get away sometimes or just sit outside. Even this past mother's day i bought her a card & flowers, she threw the flowers away. What should i do?
Sincerely, Tired Of This. 13/F
-Dear Tired of This-
In my opinion, you should talk to your dad about it. I'm not saying it's a good thing that they may split up. But you should talk to him and just tell him that you feel disrespected by your mom. Or you can do what I do when my mom and I aren't getting along too well. Sit down with her, just you and her, and talk to her about your problem. I got great advice from my uncle one day when I was mad at my mom. He said "When you are mad at someone, sit them down and talk to them about it. That way they know what they know what they are doing makes you mad or upset, that way they know not to do it anymore." I have lived by his advice since he said that to me.
I hope this helped!

okay so theres this guy that goes to a different school. hes best friends with a lot of my close girl friends but ive only met him about 4 times. i talk to him online all the time and just recently he started liking me. he asked me to go ice skating with him and i accepted. now i'm scared of rushing things too fast and i always have. i'm scared to hold a guys hand and i dont know what to do if he tries to kiss me. please help! I am a 13 year old female!
Just do whatever feels right. If he tries to kiss you, don't go with it if it doesn't feel right. Even if he gets mad that you won't kiss him, there will be other times when you feel right.
I hope this helped!

There's this one guy & him & I are pretty good friends. I like him as more than a friend & he feels the same way about me... i think. He told me he was considering asking me out. It didn't sound like a for-sure thing though. Basically, he didn't jus come out & admit his feelings, he said he doesn't know. I want him to ask me out but I'm not sure what to do. Also, he doesn't know I like him. Should I just come straight out and admit it?
Thanx,
Nathalie
If he does like you, just give him time to build up the confidence to ask you out.

ok i have this boyfriend his name is greg.. well he went on vacation with his family 2 puerto rico.. while he was gone i met this other guy ricky. ricky is rele sweet nd charming and we slept with each other at least 5 times. i dunno .. i don't feel the same with greg as i do with ricky.. ricky is wayy better in bed.. i ain't a slut or nothin.. well maybe i am but seriously what should i do? HELP i'll rate HIGH if you do `-MARIE
Pfft..No offence but you ARE a slut. I know these words are harsh but I'm just telling the truth. If you had a boyfriend why would you cheat on him when he was away?! Does your boyfriend know what happened between you and Ricky? And if he does how do you think that would make him feel!? I mean, how would you feel if you found out Greg cheated on YOU when you were in Puerto Rico? It would make you feel like shit wouldn't it? And who really cares who is better in bed?! You shouldn't like someone because of the sex they give you! You should like\love them because they like\love you! As for you and this Ricky guy..you are a slut and he is obviously a man whore. If you keep sleeping around like you are you will get a bad reputation and then you will NEVER get another boyfriend!

I'm 16 and going to be a junior in high school next fall. I go to a vocational school so I have shop every other week, all day long. I've just started having a crush on my friend who is in my shop. I like him so much, it's crazy. He likes me too. We talk on the phone a lot and I really want a relationship with him but I'm afraid that in the end our relationship won'w work out and we wont talk anymore. I would never ever want that to happen because hes such a great friend. I really have no idea what to do. Please help me out. Thanks in advance.
Don't worry about what's going to happen in the future. Just go for it and if it dosn't work out then it doesn't work out. I mean, since you two like each other, why don't you just try going out.
I hope this helped.

every girl i like doesnt like me back...they say they just like me as a friend...and i really need a girlfriend i just dotn know what to do...is there somethin im doin wrong...?
No means to be rude or anything but they may not like you because you are throwing yourself at all the girls you like. Don't be too desperate to get a girlfriend! I know you don't NEED a girlfriend..you just want one. Don't rush yourself into a relationship because chances are that it will not work out too well. Just wait for the right girl to come around and you will be happy.
I hope this helped ^_^

ok..... well i like this boy..... and im really not sure if he like me, and everyone tell me he does...but they dont know for a fact. When they tell me this, it makes me feel so good. But how do i tell him my feelings!!!??? uuuggghhh my heart is so broken! I need to know how i should tell him. Oh and he already has a girl friend!
But tell me how i should tell him or help me out......
oh um im a feamle and 14
Wow..well if I were you, I would just tell him straight up! If you are too nervous to tell him in person, write a note,tell him in an e-mail, or have a close friend tell him. If what your friends are saying is true, and if he reeeeeally likes you he will break up with his current boyfriend for you. And even if it turns out that he doesnt like you, dont let that bring you down. Remember, he may not be with his current girlfriend forever.
I hope this helped =D

You just have to be honest with your mom. Tell her that you don't like it when you see her and her boyfriend acting affectionate towards each other. Also that you want to live with your dad instead. Of course she will be upset but hopefully she will understand where you are coming from. Good luck!
I hope this helped!

ok my sister is 7 years old and she always bugs the crap out of me !! i'll try to do something by myself and she always has to do it with me. I hate it and my mom doesnt get it. she always gets her way. im 13 and i need my own space. my mom and sister dont get it. what should i do?¿
-help!!!
Wow. You are in almost the same exact position I am in! I'm 13 too and my little sister is 6. It would help if you gave me examples of activities that she bugs you with. Since the activities you wanna do are by yourself, go into your room and close the door. And if it has a lock, just lock it. If you get in trouble for it, talk to your mom about it.
I hope this helped =D

I really like this guy named Mike. Me and my friend Logan went to the movies with him and he held are hand and kissed both of us. Then after that he gave us his number. I was really attracted to him. He asked out my friend Logan but she said no. I really like him and he knows i do but now he likes some other girl. why would he kiss me and hold hands with me and telling me all this stuff on the phone and now likes another girl?

It sounds like this guy is a playa. Or he is just desperate. Obviously, so desperate that he played games with your mind and won. Just talk to him about how hurt you were when you found out that he played you like that. Hopefully he will understand where you are coming from and he will know not to do it anymore.
I hope this helped! =D
