me and this kid have had quite the steamy history. at times he'd be really into me, and then i'd be really into him. at one point he said he would leave his girlfriend for me. finally i realized that i really do love him a lot and i want to be with him so i told him. all he said was "i just need time, right now isnt the best time in my life, i do care about you i just need time." what should i do, and how long do you think he will need? im a very impatient person, i just need to know what i should do! (link)
he asked for time so id give him time.if you rush it then he might run away.just give him time until he comes to you.dont txt or call him untill he does it first.give him 2weeks max with out having any contact with him


Well i got myself an a class loser who has wrecked my car stoled money from me lived off my disability check broke my finger threatens to burn my house down shoot me destroy my property hurt my family and what few friends i have left he has been in prison for most of his life and of course he was never guilty ha ha. the police wont help until he hurts me, my house and belongings are up for grabs unless they catch him in the act of destroying them, believe me i have known him for 9 yrs and he just dont give a damn, oh yea im in a wheelchair so running is kinda out of the picture. by the way i have 2 teens at home that adore the hell out of him, they have no clue. so let me hear something good guys please. (link)
the police are soo freakn useless!!i want to just start off by saying,dont ever think that being in a wheelchair is a weakness.you are stronger than him and wheelchair or not has nothing to do with beating this monster!you going to get rid of him ok!you will and he WONT ever hurt you.
ok first off id start by telling your teens whats happening and to just be causcious.ask them not to act different around him because he might turn on you.just let them know whats going on because technically theyr in danger too.
next step is to stop fearing him.hes threatned you and yes thatd scare anyone but you need to stay strong.stay stronger than him. do not fear him because thats exactly what he wants.do not fight back but just do not fear him because thats when hell have utter control over you.
next step is keep all evidence of threats. i know its hard but just try your best.if he emails you anyy threats then save those emails.try to record anything he says to you.if he hurts you then take photos and keep them!i mean anything even if its small keep it as evidence.
next step is to NOT wait until soemthing happens. go back to the police.dont leave until theyv tried to help you.Talk to them and say that you are not going to wait until this monster beats you to death so that they (police) can do their job. tell them that he has done soemthing,hes threatned to kill you and that your here asking for help!keep trying.keep buggin them.ask them for a restraining order against that monster.
if this doesnt work then i advice you take this to court.i think there are some free lawyers around, find one, a good one, and take this to court.if you loose then you have a right of appeal and try again.its called fighting for your life and for those you love because technically they all in danger.the evidence you have will help you win the case and he will not be able to come near you.if he does then hell go back to the doghouse he came from.
if non of this works then get family to help you disapear.get out of that house, take the teens with you with need be or get them to help you move out of the house and just get as far as possible from that asswipe!!
im here for you if you ever need anything.just email me and ill try help you as much as possible.i hope this gave you some sort of picture of what your going to do.

This may be alittle long so sorry....


So as some of you know I am moving back to germany in dec and I met a guy that is from there online. We met on a Germany myspace sight and than we started talking on ICQ. We aren't able to call becasue I got my phone bill in thi smonth just from calling my brother who lives in germany..that would be a hell no! haha but he only has internet access at work ebcause its actually really expensive to have internet access at home.
Anyways things were going great for the last couple of weeks than he had some days off from work and I wasn't able to talk to him so I was alright with that, but than I got worried after a week of not talking to him and thats when I posted a thread about him not being interested anymore...I talked to my mother about it and she said if a guy likes you he will contact you and than the funny thing is that night he actuallly did ....
he left a note saying that he wouldn't be on icq this week becuase he had to work early in the morning and that he might be on wkw(german myspace)...and than he said dont be mad I make party?? I have no idea why he thinks I should be mad?
Well that was the last I've heard of him and its already been a week again and I'm freaking out...I'm really starting to lose hope becuas eI really liked this guy but it seems that ever since last week things have jsut been going downhill. I havne't talked to him in almost 2 weeks and I'm just wondeirng if he doesn't care anymore...I just I dont know what to think......

Any opinions or advice would be appreciated please and thank you (link)
ok i must say i was in a situation like this where i met this guy on facebook.he was a really sweet guy and we liked eachother and use to mail eachother everyday!then suddenly i started to like someone here and days became weeks mailing him oventually i broke it off with the internet guy even though there wasnt much between us but i still told him the truth.
what im trying to say is there is a possibility that he may of found someone over where he lives. but theres also a possibility that he may of not and it may actually be work thats stopping him from talking to you.its only been two weeks.what id do is just find out the truth.myspace him and ask him whats going on because i could tell you all these theories but the only way your going to find out the truth is by asking him yourself.you know him better than any of us and you know how he is.how much is he into you?would he not tell you if he found some other girl??just ask him sweety


Sophie is one of my good friends. Everytime I log onto MSN shes like "omg guess what oi" and then shes either really angry at someone or really upset. So I try to help her out in everyway possible like friends should. Trying to make her feel better and all sorts. But she never helps me out when I have a problem. Shes just like "dont worry about it, hes just a **** or somethng" and I care for her when she needs my help. I help her throught all her problems and everything and then i was angry about something one time and shes just like "you can be angry IM angry" and i was like woahhh settle down. I dont know what to do about her. And i cant get angry at her or in a fight because shes one of those people that you.. tell all your secrets to and if you get in a fight she will tell EVERYONE about EVERYTHING and my secrets cannot be told without me getting the biggest smash... what do I do ??? PLEASE HELP. sorry its long ! :P (link)
ohhhh i so know how you feel.i was in a situation like this back in school.i didnt wanna get in an arguement because shed tell everyone my secrets and tell everyone she hates me and try to turn everyone against me.there no simpler way to do it but this is what i did.i stayed her friend and listened to her problems,stoped telling her my secrets,found another friend on the side did this till school finished then grdually drifted apart from her.so like pretend everythign is fine and just gradually drift apart from her but still be friends so that she doesnt tell people your secrets.suck it up till the end of the year because theres actually no better way of sorting this out.trust me iv been where you have!its a messy situation to get into if you argue with her or show your upset.just be strong about it and be good to her and gradually just slip away from her.


I know I really should talk to a doctor about this, but I just havent really come to terms with it myself yet. I have these thoughts during the day about my friends, my family, my animals, anyone really. There just these horrible thoughts and I don't know how to stop them. Anyway just like if someone is walking through water that they spilt on the floor or something I get these images in my head where the person would fall and get hurt really bad or die. Really terrible thoughts that I can't control, they just...happen. It makes me feel crazy really, and that definitely scares me. I've never told anyone about this. For one thing they'd probably think i'm crazy or something, and two they'd think of me differently and I really don't want that. I've been really depressed I guess you could say. I mean I don't know if it's depression or not but after reading the symptoms for it and all it really seems like it. I've also been told I might be bipolar, and i've tried to research that but you can't really do a self diagnosis. Anyway my question here is have any of you ever had this problem? Has anyone you've known had this problem? I know I really need to talk to a doctor but I just feel embarassed and uncomfortable talking about it. I don't know how to just say anything. Not to mention the fact that the doctor would tell my parents and i'm just so scared of them looking at me differently. (link)
yeah im like 90% sure its depression.like i think your on the verge of a break down.i know someone thats been in your situation.having thoughts of killing people and like how theyd do it and plan it all out in their head.yeah it means you have anger bottled inside you.i recommend you see a doctor before you explode and do soemthing youll regret


So I'm finally going to meet my boyfriend's parents for a nice dinner at their house. Now his father and his brother aren't too fond of me to put it nicely. His brother is home for thanksgiving (from college) just my luck because he totally despises me. He found my facebook from his brother's (my boyfriend) facebook and my profile picture at the time was this bikini picture out back in my pool and he said SLUT and started yelling at his brother for dating me. So he doesn't like me very much even though I might be drop dead gorgeous I have the brains to match after all I did get early acceptance to UCLA & Stanford and a great personality to match. His Father doesn't like me too much either because he believes that I'm too pretty to date his son and that I'm just using him even though my boyfriend is like one of the biggest jocks at my school with a killer body. His mom is neutral but I'm guessing excited to meet me for the first time. So it's really really really important I dress the part for this dinner. I don't wanna go too flashy or anything but I still wanna "wow" my boyfriend and his family away. So I've listed some options below and you guys tell me what you think is best!

Option 1) http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=453979&CategoryID=14959&PageID=14953*1*24*-1*-1*1

Option 2) http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=445109&CategoryID=14959&PageID=14953*6*24*-1*-1*1

Option 3) http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=441482&CategoryID=14959&PageID=14953*7*24*-1*-1*5

SHOES TO GO WITH THE DRESS:

Option 1) http://s844.photobucket.com/albums/ab4/lexiegoesrawr/?action=view¤t=DSN350.jpg (My Yves Saint Laurent Ankle Boots)

Option 2) http://www.ysl.com/us/en/onlineBoutique/Women/Shoes/Pumps/P-Platform%20Pump%20in%20Grey%20Flannel.aspx
(Yves Saint Laurent Pump in Heather Grey)

Option 3) http://www.ysl.com/us/en/onlineBoutique/Women/Shoes/Pumps/P-Tribute%20Platform%20Patent%20Pump.aspx

You guys it's so important that I totally nail this outfit because I can talk the talk but I have too LOOK the part. I can't look like I just came from a strip club or an XXX Porno. I'm SO STRESSED OUT. If you guys think none of these are good then can you suggest something? (link)
i really like option three for the dress.its reallly nice and probibly longer than the other dresses.the other dresses look too short for the first time you meet parents.you want something maybe above the knee type thing in my opinion.but yeah option 3 with the black shoes!thatd go down well


My friend always gets rrealy mean when she's talking to her boyfriend. Whether it's online, or on the phone, she's just always really mean to me. I've tried thinking of why she might be doing it, but the only reason I could come up with is that she's trying to make herself look better. I'd like to think my friend was different but people can surprise you. My question here is what do I do? (link)
sometimes girls do that to show off infront of their bf's to show that theyr cool etc.its very common trust me!the thing to do is tell her how you feel when her bf isnt there just be calm about the situation and just say that you dont want to offend her but could she just stop making fun of you when her bf is around etc and give her examples of times shes done it and tell her it hurts you.be calm about the situation dont make it a big thing but you want to make yourself clear


im gonna try keep this short,
well it started about a month ago i guess, my gf decided we shouldnt be together any more due to her leaving for university. obviously feeling hurt and rejected i reluctently agreed because it really would have been for the best. (we only went out for about a month then when she told me we shouldnt see eachother she still came back at the weekend and we did still did bf and gf stuff) then she mashed her car and didnt want to drive in case of more accidents, its going to cost 1000 quid to repair. its been 4 weeks since i last saw her and since then things have been breaking left right and center that need to be paid for to be repair'd. first it was my snowboard that i need for my job. then it was my skateboard which both together added up to about 195 quid alone, my computer broke a couple of days ago which could cost even more. since then gradually getting ever more pissed off and frustrated with how this month has gone... i find out that my (now ex) has found some one else while she was at uni im happy for her i really am but it really feels like i wont see her again for a long time which i guess woudlnt be such a bad thing, iv started talking to another girl as well but im still too stuppidly in love with my ex... i know times a gd healer but this actually the worst iv felt in a long time. i mean even more so than the lonliness i felt before i met her. help me please (link)
iv already talk to you online but i felt like i didnt say enough then i saw this.i know you really liked her and you guys did try to make it work but how long would it of worked like that?you knew it was going to be had for the both of you.it is good that you may not see her for a while it will help you sort out your thoughts.ofcourse your going to feel really sad and hurt because its natural its a good thing to feel bad in a way because it hows how much you felt for her.i want to say this in the nicest way possible.i mean here you are sitting feeling bad you lost the girl you love while shes over there with another man.did she not love you enough to not move on so quickly?usually love is about total commitment.please do not hate me for saying it!im your friend so i want to be complete with you.you should let her go...how?youll find a way.youll manage.people get into accidents everyday and loose a limb or loose sight or loose touch etc and in the end they manage why cant you?thats because you will manage.youll find that way.
i hope i havent hurt you in anything iv said.i dont mean to be cruel or mean i just want to tell you what i think is best.

xoxo sia


Hey. I'm 16/f and i'm not really fat, but i'm a little bigger. i guess i have what you'd call a gut. not really big, i mean it's hideable with jeans and stuff, but i know it's there and i really want to lose it. but whatever i do like sit ups or something, it only works my abs and not the lower section where i need to lose. any suggestions? like some good workout? i already eat healthy and everything, it's just whatever workout i do never seems to help. thanks! (link)
doo alot of running!like not just running but sprinting!work all the muscles in the body just run run run then do you exercises to tone up like lunges and squats are soooo good like i cant stress more on how great they will work your whole body.theyr alittle difficult to do but soon your body will get use to the pain trust me.soo heapsa hard out cardio,squats, and lunges!!


Hi everyone! I have 2 boys, they are 4 and 6 years old. Their dad took them for a 2 weeks holliday this summer and decided not to bring them back to me. They spent 3 1/2 months at his place while i fought in 2 provinces to get them back. It finally happened on november 13th. The oldest missed 2 1/2 months of his first grade school year.

That'S it for the context, now, when i get mad and let's say, put my hands on my hips, the oldest has defensive reflexes, i found out he got hit by his father with a fly swapper and a wooden spoon. They also act out a lot, and my youngest has nightmares that he is being taken by a bad guy, and they end up in my bed every night. They have a very hard time going to sleep. Also, last night the 6yo one couldn't stop crying because his dad took him to a fishing and hunting trip and they shot a duck, since the bird wasn't dead, my morron of an ex got the 4yo one to "finish it"by choking it to death with his bare hands. My son is traumatised, he said he could have taken care of it, that he only had one small bullet in his head and that he could have fed him some of the fish they caught. I think it's horrible that he has to live with such horrific images in his head!

Now, what i'm wondering, is should see a specialist with them, or just let them talk and tell me what they've been through on their own. The father is now only allowed to visit them through a visitation center, and supervised. Also what else can i do to help them get better, understand that they won't get hit by me ever, that they are safe now, all that without traumatising them even more and badmouthing their dad. They are like all kids, even if the father is an idiot, they love him very much.

Someone been there? How long for the defensive reflexes to go away? (link)
you are such a lovely caring mother!i support your decision.your such a soft mother and askign for advice about this topic shows how much of a great mother you are!i hope the specialist helps you and your boys.i feel soo bad that you all had to go through that!im here for you if you need it.anytime.


im on the special k diet and today i ruined it and i ate

2 bowls of GO LEAN cereal
special k 90 cal snack bar
special k meal bar
coffee
then.....
A LOT
of peanut butter and like 5 oreos
what do i do!
i feel obese and i cant gain weight uch.
plus tomorrow is thanksgiving, and im going to cheat tomorow to and ruin my diet even more (link)
lol to me that doesnt sound like alot.but the only thing you can do is go for a run, or a loong walk to burn off what you ate and balance it out.exercise!exercise!thats pretty much what you can do


I have a problem. I just got back from a foreign country a few months ago after being there for over a year. When I got back to my hometown, I was expecting a very warm welcome back from my family and relatives. Instead, it felt like they were rejecting me. I was more happy to see them than they were happy to see me. I actually went to college at the foreign country but then dropped out of the second semester because I was not able to master their culture and I just got shut down many times. Well I came back to my home state and I'm thinking this is the reason why my family is acting shady around me and it really hurts. Some of my relatives also asked me why did I come back. The whole reality of my comeback is just eating me on the inside.. How do I deal with this so I wouldn't have to worry anymore where I stand??? (link)
ohhhh i think theyr just abit disapointed that you didnt finish your degree.i think because you were so close to finishing that they were looking forward to seeing you graduate.i guess you should finish your semester.i mean you only had one semester to go and then you can get out of that country and go back to your family and make them proud that they have a graduate or you can study where you are?the main thing is that to mean they wanted you to finish your course now they see you as giving up on what you wanted to do,to become


im an 18 f and i was wondering whats the best way to trim your downstairs? im scared to wax but i hate shaving are there any other methods? thanks :D (link)
well you brush the hair downwards put the sissors against your skin and trim the same angle your hair is growing.nothing to it. but i recommend you wax just take it all offf!i wax and was scared at the start but after your get it done!wow!itss soooo much better!trust me just do it.the first time itll hurt but after the second and third time the pain will ease up


there is this guy that I know likes me he texts me after school and talks to me. So for the past month I haven't had my phone and I know he was starting to doubt if I had really had my phone taken away which I did by the way. He told me to text him when I got my phone back but I forgot to text him yesterday when I got my phone back yesterday. So this morning he tested me say happy thanksgiving and I replied to him he then didn't text back. So like 2 hours later I texted him and he hasn't replied. I don't know I he is man at me or something. I think he thought I wasn't going to text back because I told him I didn't have my phone so he now probably thinks I am a liar. That is not true though I dealt don't want him to me mad at me. What can I do? Is he mad? (link)
im about 90% sure he is mad at you. cuz i mean he cares for you and has been waiting for a month for you to get your phone back so now that you txted back after he txtd you makes him feel like you got your phone back for a while and forgot to txt him wich he would then feel like you dont care about him or think about him enough or miss him enough to txt now he probibly feels neglected. id say apologise sooo many times until he txts back.awww he obviously cares about you.so just keep txting him and keep telling him thew obvious and that you forgot to txt him because you got your phone back last night etc etc


like im a 13 m and im in high school i like this girl right but im pretty sure she doesnt like but the thing is she like one of my best friend what should i do (link)
if you think that she doesnt like you then theres not point in keeping her from being happy.if she wants to be with your friend then let it happen.let it run naturally and if it doesnt work out for them then it doesnt and things will go back to normal but if oyu stand in their way then itll cause friction and theyll both hate you for it.just stand on the side and take it on the chin.try not to let it get to you because your going to find someone else that you think is amazing and thinks your amazing abck1 :)


does anyone know if having bad credit can keep you from being able to adopt? (link)
i think with adoption you need to have a stable career, money coming in, place to live etcbecause they look into all that.it may affect you unless youv paid the money back


As you may have guessed I am a redhead. I get teased a LOT mostly by other girls but I never have anything to say to come back with so I either cry or get really mad and walk away.

What are some good comebacks for people who make fun of me just because I am a redhead? You would think it was a crime to have red hair the way they talk to me. :(

Thank you! (link)
just tell them "obviously your lifes not interesting enough, atleast mine is"
"red is the colour of fire meaning im sizzling hot" lol i like that one
at the end of the day if you show you love your hair and dont care about what people say then theyll see the mocks arent affecting you and get bored and will stop.


I am really good with kids. They all love me it seems like and the parents do too, but when it comes to promoting my babysitting business I am really lousy. I want to do flyers and put them up in the usual places but every time I get a start on one it just seems like I am putting too much or too little info.

I have re-written several flyers dozens of times each and I am never happy when I am done. I know this is stupid, but could someone send me some examples of what to put on a babysitting flyer?


Thank you for your help!
(link)
well i dont have a flyer to show you but if i was looking for a babysitter i would want to know how much experience youv had with kids,your age,maybe even a photo of you and alittle bit about yourself.say soemthing that can really capture parents attention and that will assure them that their child will be safe and happy under your supervision. have lots of colour so it looks like your being child centred too.


Someone told me that I wore my heart on my sleeve and I just stood there nodding like I knew what she meant by it but I really have no idea.

Can you enlighten me a bit? Thank you (link)
so your friend is saying that when you like someone you dont hide it he/ she can tell when you like someone because you make is obvious


Guess I really am a baby but I have to ask. So do they? Have you had one and what was your experience? (link)
nope they dont hurt.theyr a prick in the arm you only feel alittle prick when the needle goes in and out of your arm.when the blood is being taken out you dont feel anything
