I met this guy over the summer from Germany and he is super awesome. I used to like him but now he's like a really really cute brother to me. He's my best friend. My other best friend likes him now and I am getting jealous. Does this mean I still like him or I am just jealous to be jealous.

HmMm.. I think that happens to a lot of us. Kinda like an exboyfriend thing.. but um.. Maybe you do like him!! There's no harm in finding out, try flirting with him and if it's wierd then maybe you're just sisterly-jealous. I don't really know how to explain that so i hope you know what I mean! Hope I helped!!

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS...IM SURE ALL YOU GIRLS HAVE GONE THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS! okay here's the thing...there's this boy...let's say..."Dylan". well me and dylan go to school together and just last year i began talking to some of his friends just sayin how i thought he was cute and all. so at the end of last year that got around to him but we barely said hi. then over the summer we talked alot and he even began calling me cute names. we expressed to eachother how much we liked eachother and everything then rigt before the summer was over he ended up telling me he wasnt ready for a girlfriend. i mean i was okay with that i just felt like he had led me on for so long. well now we're over that but i hear from more of his friends that he likes me again and im sure he can tell that i never quit liking him. my question is how do i get him to finally confess that he likes me if he still does without asking him the question flat out? thanks!!

Maybe he really doesn't want a girfriend at the moment. But if you're not convinced, ask him to go to a movie or hang out or something, just as friends. And if he is def. flirting with you then he obviosly likes you and something's wrong with him for not wanting a gf!

Psh bitch slap her. Lol no i'm jp. But maybe you should. Neways, Talk to Rachel, but not on the internet bc you can't put words how you want to when you type. She sounds like a lousy friend! But when you talk to her be like 'hey! So what's this I hear about you and _____(guy's name!)' Hope I helped!!!!

Okay, so there's this guy in my school that most of the girls would give their leg to date (not literally of course) He's one of the best skateboarders around, and was even chosen to go to this contest thing across the US... Anyways, he's so cute and he doesn't even know it. From what I've heard he doesn't like having a gf because it gets in the way of skateboarding. A few weeks ago he(Mark) broke up with the girl I have hated since elementary school (she used to pick on me before I lost a lot of weight and discovered make up. lol) This guy that I know from around my neighborhood is dating my best friend n also friends with Mark. He told me that he thought I was 'hot' and that he liked me. Well, he is also really shy. You'd think that because of all of this attention from girls and skating he wouldn't be, but he is. I was hanging out watching them skateboard and he didnt do anything but look over at me a few times. So, before I left I heard him say "No hug?" which was the first time i heard him say anything really. So i gave him a hug and left... When i passed him in school Mark barely said anything other than a "Fine dont say hi to me, i see how it is" so I did and my friends and I walked on to class. When I've passed by him, I saw his eyes on me the whole time we walked by each other and I know he did it on purpose for me to see. I can't help it, I like him so much even though I don't know much about him. Something about being not like the other guys who make those rude comments as you walk by. He's just... So cute! lol. Well, I don't know what to do anymore. I've been talking to him as much as I can, but I don't want to ask if he wants to hang out because I think that's his job and I really want to get to know him better. I also don't believe he likes me because i tend to put myself down a lot and I don't think that he *could* like me. I'm thinking of the worst, like, its all a joke or not true or something, not that he really does like me. Can someone help me with what I could do? Thanks ((I rate if that helps any... Btw, Mark is 16 and I am 14))

Psh I think he likes you. I guess keep doing what you're doing and he'll be more talkative, and it seems like you've gotten to know him more recently, so i think it'll keep up. Hope I helped!

i have been feeling bad for a while.. i think i have the disease depression... im almost 16 years old and until recently i havent told anyone except my best friend... i want to tell my mom and go to the doctor to find out for real but im scared... im afraid she wont understand or not take me seriously or get mad... some of my symptoms are: alot of insecurities with myself, feeling empty, trapped, i always wanna stay home and sleep, i hate myself, im sick of my life, and i have alot of regrets.... im not so bad that im thinking of suicide though.. i would NEVER do that.... the thing is i think i have a pretty good life and im lucky for the things i have and that makes me feel really guilty about feeling bad..... i have a good house, im healthy, i have a family who loves me, my parents are together, and i have alot of stuff but i still feel depressed....... i no there are people who have it so much worse than me and all that makes me feel so much worse about how i have been feeling.... my questions are do u think i am really depressed like.. do u think i have the disease or do u think im just a moody teenager? and do u think i should tell my mother? please please time one million answer my questions!!!! i reallyyyyyyy need help!

I think you should talk with your mom, she loves you and she won't get mad! If she doesn't believe you, tell her you're serious and make her know!! Wether you really are suffering from depression is something a doctor can help you out with. Hope I helped!

my mother 2 months ago got married, to a man she met over one of those dating websites, hes from england, and in the one week he came over to visit, they married. he left for a couple a weeks, and now he will be here till january. hes been here for 2 months so far, and hes annoying my mom, (me also) and he won't pull his weight, and hes not helping with bills or anything, so now my mom said if he doesn't bring in his money for a job he got then shes divorcing him in january. well with that now said how do i explain to my friends, that now i prolly wont be going to england, and that my mom is going to be divorcing the man that she recently married, and met over the internet... its put so much stress on me about my mom coming to talk to me about how she can't stand him, and my grades are slipping and shes mad about that, but she doesn't realize shes putting it on me... what do i do?

-sometimes im miserable, but thats so typical-
-but of all the things i am-
-i am beautiful-

You probably don't want to but tell your mom that her talking about all this stuff is to much for you. She just doesn't realize it bc of all her stress.

hey gurlz,
how can i make time to change my tampon at school? i never have time in between classes, and i dont like to leave the class w/ my purse b/c everbody would know. i usually don't put stuff in mypurse b/c all my friends go through it. i usually ut stuff in my lunch box, and change during lunch. can any of u give me advice on how to manage it?
i will rate high

Sorry, but I think you need to go during class! I know it sucks, but I don't think guys realize what's going on most of the time. And girls won't care, bc in a couple weeks they'll be doing the same thing. Hope I helped!

ok this one of those annoying questions but some ppl dont understand what its like.. i've been mildly anorexic on and off since 5th grade (im in 9th). the thing is im a naturally tall skinny person, i know that, but im like obsessive. im 5'6 and like 106 pounds. my friends are like i'd kill to be as skinny as u but i feel FAT! my other friend tells me im like lara flynn boyle (i dont even no who that is!) lol.. i just want to lose like 3 pounds but im afraid of getting "addicted" to it.. i just dont no what to do. i dont want to be anorexic but i'll be very unhappy if i dont lose like 3 pounds... even though i know im skinny but at the same time i feel FAT and that takes over me.. its really confusing.. AHH what should i do?

Tell your mom. Anorexia is a disease, you may need help. But just to be like ur friends.. You're not fat!!! and you don't need to loose 3 pounds. Neways, anorexia can really hurt you if you let it go on for a long time, and it sounds like it has. So PleaSe tell someone!!!

i'm going to be moving soon and i was wondering if there are any teenagers out there with some good ideas on how to decorate a new bedroom?? you know, something fun yet classy, but not too crazy.

I personally like antique-y stuff. I think it's beautiful! Maybe something like that. But I'd look in magazines.. like PB teen and see what you like. Oh, they have a website too it's like www.pbteen.com or something like that. *it stands for pottery barn teen

does ANYONE know like wut the average GPA u have to have to get into to NOTRE DAME!?

You can check the their home website. And then there's prolly a search engine in it and just type "GPA requirements" Usually, it's an average or a range of the kids that go there.

do guys like it if girls ask them to dance or go out w/ them...ive always wondered. or does the guy have to do it all?

Yeah I think they do. They know it takes a lot of courage and are prolly attracted to it. Lol I read this in a YM magazine, but anyhoo. Yeah, they are.

srry if this is long but
there is this kid in my school and he is shorter me and not very good lookin but i still lik him alot and no one understands and ppl always make fun of me for likin him and i already went out wif him lik 3 times b4 and he dumped me all the times but i still rely lik him and alot of ppl make fun of me for it and i hate how no one understands mee

how can i get them 2 stopp??

Some people just don't understand. If they're your friends, maybe try just telling them that it bothers you, and if they're not ur friends go all bad-ass and be like get the hell away from me. Ha no i'm jk, I don't think you really can stop them. But if it starts to embarras you, only tell ur closer friends and keep ur crush on the down low.

Okay I have a guy friend 'Alexander' I know Alex from my tap dance, we are in the same class together and I sort of befriended him because he was extremely nice. Well he loves to dance, and he is really gifted but all the other girls in the class are being really really mean to him. He has such a friendly attitude that he goes up everyone and says hi, even the 'In' group which he wants to be a part of so badly. I honestly don't know why he would want to be nice to stuck up know-it-alls but thats just my opinion talking there. They give him threats and say he is gay, plus all his friends at school make fun of him and call him gay also. He was so hurt when told me all this he was near tears, I felt sooo sorry for him. I feel sorry for him because I have been the only person that has been nice to him, and I tend to want to make fun of guys and call guys names.
He told me how hurt he was last week and that he had made himself come to dance that day. I do understand how he feels, My entire life I have been made fun of.

my problem is I like Alex and I know I shouldn't because i'm setting myself up for pain. I want to stay away from him but then I would be hurting Alex because he would think I didn't like him either. I try not to think of him because I know he doesn't like me and I will get hurt like all the other times before, Plus I'm too ugly for any guy.

You ARE NoT to ugly for any guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I promise you! All guys in high school are looking for are sluts and big boobs. Neways, back to the point. Like they say "it's better to have loved and lost then never to have loved at all." You'll never be able to find anyone if you are scared of rejection. Keep being his friend, and I guess try flirting with him. If he doesn't get the message or still just wants to be friends, then be his friend! You'll find the right guy soon!
