Q:
Hey everyone, I need help - FAST ! Please just read my situation and try to help me I'm in deep trouble I think.

Okay, so after school today my boyfriendwas at baseball practice and he had to get something from his locker, and kissed me goodbye and at the time I was looking in his bookbag for his cellphone. Then he left and I was looking at pictures and then my friend came and was like "You should see his texts they're dirty." So I was like okay so we saw a girl's texts to him, lets call her Ashley. The texts weren't that bad but they were like 'I wanna hump you' and stuff like that. So my friend said "Wouldn't it be funny if we told Ashley off?" I was like "No it's not our phone." So my friend said "yeah okay whatever." She wrote "ur a whore" and then she had to go but I said "Don't you think we should at least delete the message so that he (my bf) doesn't see it ?" She said "No because then we have evidence that he sent it ." At the time I was not thinking at all and thought that it would work . But now I realize that obviously he's going to know that he didn't send it.
Well, here it gets worse. He called my other friend that is a guy, let's call him Trevor. Well my boyfriend called Trevor and told him how he thinks I told Ashley that she is a whore. Then Trevor called me and made me confess that it was my friend and it turns out my boyfriend was on the phone listening to mine and Trevor's conversation. At least my boyfriend knows the truth, but I dont think he believes me because while I was in the shower he sent me an IM that what I did was a bitchy thing to do.

The problem is, I didn't write the text ! I mean I know I probably should have stopped her but I went along with it. Now my boyfriend is PISSED at me. What can I do?

I'll rate 5's for anything
K so you are not the "bad guy" here. He should NOT have been talking to that girl like that while your going out .. thats not right & disloyal. he may feel like you invaded his privacy by going into his phone & texting her back (well, even if it was your frind) but you should just tak to him and say look, im sorry for invading your privacy & i should have stopped my friend from writing that. but it hurts me that you would talk like that with her while we're going out. - be upfront with him, tell him how you feel, but make sure to tell him your sorry for what YOU did, and it hurt you what HE did. goodluck

Q: should your boyfriend/girlfriend come before your best friend?

please explain too ♥ thanks.
EDIT / i didn't mean they were whatever .. thats just how the saying goes. but as far as loosing a friend over a boy, it's just not worth it in the long run. =] sorry bout that.


nooo! friends are forever boys are whatever.. at least that's how the saying goes. your friends will always be there for you, dont loose them over a boy/girl.

Q: ok, so im a 13 year old girl, and i have been having some problems with these girls in my school. there are these two girls in my class, and they are SO mean to me and my friend. one of the girls used to be soooo nice, but then she started hanging out with the other girl, who is considered "popular" at our school, and she has completly changed! we used to be friends, but now they are just mean to me and my other friend. i'm not saying that i want to be friends with them again, because they are complete bitches and i hate them, but how can i stand up to them or just show them that i really dont care what they say to me, or what they think about me?
they sound like snobby bitches to me & im glad you already know that they're not worth being friends with. by saying something to them, it's showing that you can stand up for yourself and they will probably leave you alone. your friend and you can do it together for more courage. dont let what they say get to you and when they say something SHOW that you dont care .. just brush it off or ignore it. you could also ask them if they have a life - why do they spend it trying to torture you? because it's not working - so they're just wasting their time. it really depends on wahat they are saying to you and some other personality traits of the girls are but there are limitless possibilities. whatever you DO say to them, dont yell or anything. just say it ina calm tone of voice iit'll really get to them & show that you dont care about them AT ALL. the fact that you already KNOW you dont care what they think or what they say is already a big step; now all you have to do is get them to STOP by saying something. we learned in school that most bullies that bully will STOP if the victim stands up for themselves or isn't bothered by it - its takes the " fun " out of it. well, anyway

Q: who sings that song that goes "Sara beth is scared to death" i dont know the rest...
thanks
it's called skin & it's by the rascal flatts =]

Q: omg okay so i was on buddypic.com and i clicked on a site thinking it was a picture but it went to my myspace and said that a cancellation was going to be sent to my email.. meaning that i said i was going to cancel it but i didnt mean to do that! so is my myspace going to be dleted?!!? because it said that i had to follow the instructions in order to delete it so do you think it will be dleted?!
no; it won't get deleted unless you go to the email sent to you & do what it says (which would cancel it). otherwise, your safe! =]

Q: When I shave my underarm I somtimes get these bumps and they hurt pretty bad! What are they? Use Venus for my razor and soap. Am I doing something wrong? Should I be doing something else?
this happens to a lot of people including me! try using shaving cream (venus has good shaving cream) instead of soap because it's more moisturizing (hahah is that a word?) on your skin. ( = hope i helped.

Q: ok my dad wasnt home so i snuck a reeses peanut butter cup, even though i wasnt supposed to have one and i dropped it and my dog ate it...is he going to die? please help me i am so scared right now...hes a wire fox terrior, 1 year old and weighs about 18-20 pounds if that helps...please help me danielle
it's true that chocolate is bad for dogs, but he won't die from just one reeses peanut butter cup! dont worry! just try not to let him eat chocolate again, but a little thing like that is not a worry (=!

Q: would it be safe for a kid to go on the low carb diet?
Yes, but they do need some carbs, so don't cut them out completley.

Q: What kind of job can a 14 year old girl get?
I am almost 14 and need a job badly. My parents barely have enough money to pay the bills. I want to help them out. Please no babysitting. [if this helps i live in PA]
it's kind of limited but you can work at a fast food place, reffing for a sport (my friend did it when she was only 13 & they pay about 70$ a game as my friend said, but you have to get trained), and i think you can like bag stuff at Acme or something. go around to any of these places and get applications. goodluck.

Q: I'm 5'8, 158 pounds, 15 years old, not active at all.

On this coming monday, im starting a diet which will hopefully help me lose 1 or 2 pounds a week, but I need to know if it will work. Here is my daily plan:

Breakfast: Honey bunches of oats cereal, 1% Milk
Lunch: Fruit salad, water
Supper: Anything my mom makes (healthy)

I will also be running on the treadmill for about 20 minutes at 4m/h. I've sort of been using the calorie-counting method.

Anyways, will I lose weight with this, or is it a waste of time? What can I change?
it would probably help you loose weight, but wouldn't you get bored of eating the same exact thing every day? you don't have to be that strict to loose weight. using the calorie counting method and having 1200 - 1400 calories a day and running on the treadmill like you explained. watch carbs too. eat healthy things like you said above, not a lot of junk food. if your hungry, a small amount of nuts is very filling& healthy. just try to be active as much as possible .. maybe take walks around the neighborhood with your friends or little things add up. goodluck

Q: I really like abercrombies clothes but they are really expensive but abercrombie kids in fairly reasonable and i was wondering if i had a chance to fit into their clothes. i wear a small/medium now in juniors and the only reason i switched to juniors about 4 years ago is because all the clothes just didnt fit right like the pants werent long enough and the shirts were loose and stuff. well i know abercrombies clothes fit tightly both kids and juniors so do i have a chance to fit into their clothes?

the nearest abercrombie kids to me is like 45 mins away and i dont wanna drive there if i dont have any chance? any ideas?
yes, you will be able to fit in them. i wear a size medium & i fit there, though i only bought like one thing there bc i mostly shop at abercrombie & fitch. they have sizes from like xs - xL in kids, so you should be able to fit

Q: whats the best way to get rid of acne? more than just wash it everday..... any ideas or websites.x0x0 thanks

Q: I HATE my best friend. She just gets on my nerves. She NEVER listens to me and she crys alot and she says I make a big deal out of everything. But honestly its her.
What should I do?
you really should talk to her. you don't want to loose a friendship over that.. she might just be a sensitive person (crying) i know im sensitive and i tend to tear up.. but you should talk to her and maybe you need a little break from each other.

Q: My best friend is over weight. My other freinds and I are all skinny. Well, I found out she is on a diet and trying to loose enough weight to look good in a bathing suit. And I think that's so great and stuff. She sent me this question on Advicenators on what she should do ... I found out it was her and said we should talk. I'm waiting for her to say something to me. i told me two other freinds.. all four of us are BFs. I'm worried she's on a bad diet. She's been overweight her whole life.Should we talk to her about it? I know if we did she would get all offensive. She doesn't dress for her body type and I don't know what to say. Should we talk to her? What should we say? What if she gets mad? What advice could we give her? I WILL RATE 5S!
i was just looking through the site and ofund this question too.. i already wrote you a long answer on the other one. i'm not on a bad diet, i am on a healthy diet eating all my meals & eating healthily, and exersizing more. my mom knows, and i have her body and she went through the same things when she was younger. im not loosing insane amounts of weight because im not like majorily overweight or anything, i'd just like to loose prob 10 more pounds or so, so i could look average by summer. you don't have to be worried about me and i am glad that you care. i am telling you this and what i told you in my other answer because i know i can trust you and you have told me that you are here for me. if we ever talked abotu it in person which would be very very hard for me, i wouldn't wanna talk to all 3 of you. probably just you. but, i just wanted to ask you, what do you mean i don't dress for my body type? am i supposed to wear clothes i don't want to wear just bc im a little bigger right now? like idk. im sorry if you dont care ab any of this or dont wanna here it. but you seem like you care and are concerned so imm explaining this. anyway.. i mean im not sure how i feel about talking in person but mariss i hope you know we can talk about anything. i just dont want it to be that whole 3 to 1 thing.. and i don't see why it was neccesary to tell megh and kris, as i already said i'd much rather just have this talk with you or any of this with just you. you are my best friend and i wouldn't talk to any of my other friends about this. my weight is my business.. you are some of my best friends, but.. it makes me uncomfortable to know that all of you guys know and im kind of rambling but ....... its hard for me to explain anything but if you want to i guess we could talk some time but im just warning you i dont know how it will go ill try not to get offensive but i may get embarassed and insecure and who knows what else.. im trying to be understanding and i hope you can be too. im sorry im telling you all this through advicenators and gohs maybe i shoudlnt be doing this maybe you should delete these after you read them just in case someone else will read them but ... im not mad at you or anyhting, i hope yhour not mad at me and if you want to talk yah idk what else to say this is way too long.. but thanks for caring.

Q: I want to tell my friend something..It's a problem I've been having and it's kind of serious. I've never told this friend anything this serious before though. How do I know if she'll accept me and keep it a secret?
if she is a good friend, she will understand & accept you for who you are. before you talk to her, say i am trusting you to keep this a secret, it is important to me and our friendship that you don't tell anyone. if she is a good friend she will try & help you get through your problem and she'll care about you, so she will accept you & not tell anyone. call her on the phone and say, hey JANE (whatever her name is), i gotta tell you something maybe we can hang out tm? or something if she says why can't you tell me now, say i rather tell you in person

Q: There's this girl that keeps calling me her best friend and she constantly clings to me. She's an ok person and I think of her as a friend who'll I talk to once in a while, but in no way do I consider her to be my best friend. She's a nice person and I don't want to hurt her feelings, but how do I get her to leave me alone?
i know what you mean. this girl is probably insecure and doesn't have many other friends. be nice to her, but encourage her to branch out. explain to he rthat you have to and want to hang out with your other friends, too, etc.

Q: ok i have this one friend and she like wants me to buy her ticket if we are going to the movies or something she says she will pay me back and she never does so now she owns me about 25$ from all the times she took my money and she always wants my parents to take us somewhere like her parents are busy her mom doesnt drive and her dad she says is always busy i feel bad for my parents cause they dont want to take us to the places but like i keep asking them until they finally say yes. thats my only friend i hang out with right my other friends i only talk to in school i use to have this other friend i hung out with but now i think she is mad at me cause of my new friend what should i do about this friend. if i let her go they all my weekends will be boring and everything please help me.
i rate 5
i, personally, don't mind lending friends money, but they don't ask for it all the time or a large amount. the next time she asks for money, say, "maybe we shoudl wait until you payed me back for the other times," or, "i'm running a little low on cash. do you have that money you owe me?" that's not mean & if you're good friends, you should be able to talk about it. you could try to begin hanging out with toher people too so you don't have to hang out with her every day, every weekend. hope i helped

Q: I have this friend who is overweight. She asked a question to me on this website about how to loose weight. The main thing was, she said that her freinds (me and my 2 BFs) always talk about her weight and it hurts her and how should she bring it up with them. Well, I found out it was her. The thing is, we have NEVER EVER EVER talked about her weight. We all knew she was bigger but... well we are going to talk to her about it. What should we say? She said she felt like that had to wear bikinis cause my freind and I did. Basically, what should we say to her?
you don't have to talk to me.. i really can handle this myself. it's good to know that you are there for me, but i am doing what i can and i am doing it the right way. it's something that is just in my genes, if you look at my family .. i mean, i know it's probaly hard for you guys to understand you are lucky and don't have that problem. but you know, i have to work just to become normal & yeah it is hard. ever since i was a little girl it's been an issue, and it is the most sensitive subject i have and my biggest insecurity. even if i eat the exact same as you and whoever else, i guess i just have a slower metabolism and i put on weight when you wouldn't. im active & i dont eat excessive amounts, i am trying to eat really healthy and exersize as much as i can. i know this probably isn't the right way to discuss this with you through advicenators and all, i realize this now and you may not even want to here all of this but i want you to understand even though its hard, and i would try to talk about it in person or other places but .. its really sensitive for me and i can't just bring it up in a conversation, ya know? and i don't really want to its embarassing. but i don't need people telling me im overweight.. the doctor even told me that i was normal weight for my height and such, but that doesn't mean that i'm happy with my body. i know im not skinny, i never will be skinny. i just want to be average and look good. yes its hard for me but i'm exersizing and eating right so that i can wear what i want and feel comfortbale with myself. its hard for me and i am trying to be as honest with you as i can so i really hope you don't take offesnse to any of this im just trying to explain, sorry that this is so long.

Q: Hello Friends, thank you for reading this. I have a friend, she was actually one of my first friends here, and I just heard that she was saying things about me behind my back to people that are my friends. Should I confront her about what she is saying?
yes, you should confront her about it. personally, when ever i find out something liek that, i kinda of hold a grudge without meaning to until i get it off my chest and talk to them about it. if you are good friends, you guys should be able to talk about things like that & it will even make your friendship stronger. just tell her what you know, how you are feeling, and tell her it hurts you when she does those kind of things.

Q: ok im 13 female and i first got my period in october of 2005 and i havent seen it since. no i havent has sex but i do masturbate so does that have any effect on it or what? also i guess i discharge. my main question is, whats the difference from cum and a discharge for a girl? it looks the same and what nots. please give me good answers!!!!!! i rate HIGH!!!
it's normal for this to happen.. when you first get your period, it's irregular. when i first got mine, i was about 11 and i got it one day, then didn't get again for a long time - longer than you haven't had yours. so dont worry about it, its completley normal & will become regular eventually!
