i am suppost to go to this party tonight with a couple of my friends. this guy i know wants me to go so i can hear his band play. But most of the people there ((except for like 6 people)) i dont really know very well, and dont really like to much. I kinda want to go but wat if the think "why is she here?" so should i go? and the guy is gunna ask me out there, and i kinda wanna say yes, and i kinda wanna say no.. wat should i say? Ill Rate! (link)
You should definitely go! Just keep your chin up and act like you belong - you do, cause he invited you. If anything, you might make some other new friends or just have a good time checking out your cutie in the band. Good luck :)


i really like this boy, and my friend found out that i liked him, and she's being stirring rumours that arent true and she found out that the boy i like has alot of common things with me and she is trying to be his perfect image which is me i recently found out that they are going out what should i do
i dont understand why she didnt want to tell me to see how i feel about it

please help (link)
That's a bummer. A real/true friend never ever would have done that to you! She's jealous of you and that's her way of saying you're "friends" but screwing you over at the same time. Write her off now.... i took the same treatment from a "friend" for years and it's just gonna continue with every thing and every guy you ever like or want. good luck!


Okay, about a month ago, me and my boyfreind did some stuff together. (more then kissing) I told him not to tell ANYONE because i really didn't wanted a bad reputation. I knew i made a mistake by doing this with him, but it was too late. Well just today, i found out that he told one of his freinds aaron and one of his freinds jimmy. Jimmy told me that him and aaron wernt the only ones who knew and that my boyfreind told alot of people! So when I confronted my boyfreind about all this, he denied it and said he didnt tell anyone that they were just rumors. I told him that even if they were rumors, they were still true and someone had to know about it. So i broke up with him and told him it was for my reputation and i didnt want people to think i was a big slut. He went off on me telling me i was wrong for doing this. Is breaking up with him a good or bad thing to do. Remember, this is what people will think about me for a while. I need help! (link)
Good move in breaking up with him, but it should be for the main reason - he lied to you. Guys are guys and guaranteed that he told his friends. Since you broke up with him it sends the clear message that you don't take bullsh*t (and makes it look like the rumours are untrue). Just be wiser next time and don't even risk your reputation.. Good for you girlfriend!


Sometimes, out of no where, i'll get dizzy, my head will feel weird, and i see these weird grey swirls. i cant see anything else. it goes away pretty quick, but its incredibly weird. does anyone know what this could be? thanks. (link)
Hi..
Dizziness is NOT a mental health illness. You could have problems (gray outs they're called) with PMS, heart or inner ear. See the doctor.


im realy bored,i have nothing to do please help!
i have seen everthing on T.V a billion times and i have surfed the intire internet.Please help i rate 5s.Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (link)
Are you sure you've hit the ENTIRE internet? lol... sign up for a class on Saturday mornings or take Jazzercise. You'll meet some new people and maybe make some new friends or learn new ways of spending your time instead of tv watching.

There is this guy i like. lets call him k. but like 5 other girls do too. But this might sound like something everyone would say, but i've liked k the longest. one of my friends, lets call her r, who also likes k started liking him after me and when k found out we both liked him, he told my other friend, s, he liked both of us back. now that was a while ago. then r, went out with someone totally different, we'll call him a. but then a broke up with r like 2 weeks later and r started liking k again. now all this time, i've liked k. NOW, my other friend, L, likes k also!!! but i've talked to both of them and my friend r says that even though she likes k, she knows how much i do and that i could have him. i guess. then L told me that she knows how long i've liked k and that she knows how it feels to not get the one that you want and to watch someone else have him. (thats a different story). but then if i get k, i'll feel really bad for all the others who like him, even though i've been waiting forever to have him, even before i knew anyone else liked him. please help. i dont know what to do.

Forget the r's, s's and l's! It doesn't matter at all who liked K the longest or first... it matters who he goes out with now. Just step it up and be there first!


OK,
So I really like this guy hes Funny,cute,nice but he says he likes me but really he likes me and another girl. I have gone out with him befor and everytime he has broken my heart I promised myself I would never fall for him again but I did...!I dont know what to do. The other girl he likes likes him bak and everytime they go out they go out 4 soooo long!!! I dont know what to do cause I love him so much and he likes another girl more then me and if he asks her out I will be heart broken I dont know what to do to get him attention and to get him to like me more...What should I DO!!??!!

Yours truley,

**confused** (link)
He's playing you both! You should never, ever let someone break up with you more than once. Time to find a new guy who won't do mean things like going back and forth between you and the other chick!


Hi, Ive wanted to get my belly button pierced for like 4 years. Im 16 now and my mom said she would take me this summer. Im just kind of curious about the amount of pain. I heard like when you get the needle through your belly button you dont feel it, but when the put the ring in you do. And how long af ter does it hurt? like a day or a week? If someone could please tell me about their experience that would be great... Thanks in advance :) (link)
The piercing doesn't hurt that much at all! just a little pressure and a pinch. It's the first couple weeks after that when it hurst like hell. Make sure you wash it every day at least 3-4 times a day to avoid getting it infected and it'll heal up faster that way too. Believe me... I got mine done at 36! (i'm not too old for it :)and I'm only 105 pounds)


It drives me insane that he doesn't like me. I love him so much, no matter what I say. Even when we argue and I say I hate him. Deep down, I still love him. I wish these feelings would go away, I really do. I feel like I'm too young, and I don't really know what love truly is. But all I think about is him. I can never get him off my mind. Every song I hear reminds me of him. I just can't take the fact that he doesn't like me, and knowing that I can't have him makes me want him more. And just whenever he talks to other girls, it makes me jealous that it isn't me he's talking to. I try to make it stop, but I can't. I don't even want to like him because I know it will never happen. Which kills me. People say it's just a crush. But a crush isn't like this, I have had many crushes before and this is NOTHING like those. I care about him more than I do myself. Which is pretty bad. But, it's the truth. I love him so much. I know that's what it is. Just whenever he gets online I get so happy, whether I am talking to him or not. I wish I could let go of all of it. I can't say that I wish I never met him, because then I wouldn't be experiencing what love really is. But I am so fucking scared to get hurt by him. Just by him saying he didn't like me pretty much killed me. I just want to cry every night at the fact he isn't mine. I would give almost anything to have him. It's so hard. I don't know what to do. I don't even know why I try so hard to make him like me, it's not like it works. And it makes me so mad. I wish I could just do something that would make him at least just like me, maybe that could lead to more things. I want, so bad, just to tell him how I really feel. But it's not any other guy. It's him. He is better then anyone else, and it's harder with him. I could tell anyone else that I like them, but not him. I have before. But things have changed since then. I am so confused. Is this what I think it is? (link)
welcome to the world of heartache... you're young and if you could ever say out loud to someone "I hate you" than you certainly don't truly love them.


ok, all of my friends tell me just to make the first move on my boyfriend. but if we're in the movies, how am i supposed to just start making out with him!? HELP! (link)
sit close and hold hands... play the snuggly bit by putting your head on his shoulder. don't jump him.... they like to think it was their idea. good luck chick


... i love my boyfriend and never want to leave him .... its just sometimes ... i dont and i want to kill myself because he never seems happy with me ... he get irritated and even slaps me sometimes. But i dont want to break up! Please help ... I dont know what else to do

~ Hurtin' on the outside (link)
You deserve so much better than that! It may hurt, but walk away and we can all promise you that in time there WILL be someone much better.


my boyfriend always trys to get me to do things in front of other guys... and when i dont' he gets mad and says stupid and prude. he gets his other guy friends to rag on me. and the other night i was on my rag. he wouldn't leave me alone.. so i took out all my anger on him... then he told me i was lucky to have him... hes realy sweeet wen nobody else is around.. and i dont' want to break up with him...what should i do? (link)
If he treats you badly in front of his friends... it's only a matter of time or his temper and he'll be treating you badly in private too. Run like hell to get away from this jerk.


My boyfriend of 3 days asked me out over the phone at midnight. He always calls me at ridiculous times, even before we were going out, and always tells me to call him at a specific time the next day. Except, the day after he asked me, when I called him, he didn't answer his phone.
He called me at about 8pm, apologising and saying that he was ill - but that I could come to his house tomorrow if I wanted and I should call him at 11. I called and he didn't pick up.
That was yesterday, and still he hasnt spoken to me.
What should I do?
I rate (link)
you should dump him! any guy that tells you to call at "specific" times (and then blows you off anyhow) has something else going on. And he only calls you at late hours means he's doing something else till then. don't wait for him to treat you badly... just get rid of him quick.


ok well i used to go out with this boy im not saying his name tho and well he treated me with respect and he cared about me and he would always see how my day was and cheer me up he was the only guy who could ever make me laugh and smile when i was crying or deprssed and then i dumped him for another guy that i thought was sweet but apparently not becuz he keeps telling me and with alot of force in his tone to give him head and to have sex with him and i reallie miss the guy i dumped becuz he was the closest thing to perfect that i had in my life and when it was just me and him it felt like nothing else existed but me and him and the least i could have done was treated him with respect in return. and this is all my fault!!!

plz help me (link)
wow... we all make mistakes, now how to fix it. First - break up with loser boy whether you have a new boyfriend or not. Any guy that would use a forceful tone to demand sex/head/whatever - is a jerk and will always be a jerk.
give yourself some time alone and maybe, just maybe, nice guy will see that you learned your lesson and would value him much more this time around.
good luck chick.


ok... this might be long... but i'll rate 5's for anyone who answers i swear!!!!! ok... theres this girl(taylor) on my boyfriends(rob) bus... and me and my friend (anna) think that taylor likes rob... so anna told rob that we thought taylor liked him... and i asked him if he thought she was pretty and i said i want an honest answer i won't be mad... so he told me he thought she was pretty, but not as pretty as me... and i started crying cauz lately theres just been so much stress on me and i just had to break down... then i asked if he would ever like her and he said "i dunno... but i wouldn't cheat on you" and i said ok... but the "i dunno" just broke my heart... so i keep reassuring him that im fine about it... but somewhere inside i no im not and i don't wanna keep bugging him about it... i really love him and i trust him... but i just get this bad feeling about him and her sitting together on the bus...and since he's in a year younger than me his parents won't let him go out on dates so i only get to see him like 3 times durring the day... and taylor gets to be with him more than i do and it just kills me to no that... i don't know what to do.. please help... or give encouraging words.. i luv him and he luvs me too... i trust him.. but i just can't get over it... (im a very sensitive person) (link)
Oh honey.....it's SO hard not to tear yourself up over it. Your boyfriend has been honest and that's what you asked of him. Try to be the cute confident girl that he liked to begin with. Take a deep breath, you said you trust him, so now let you mind take a break and just enjoy the time you are together and not worry about the rest of it.


well lately my friend has totally been flirting with my boyfriend.She knows she does it but she just shrugs it off.I hate it!!like we will be walking in the halls together and she will come right between us and rather close to him i might add.i dont wanna ruin our friendship, but me and this guy really love each other.we've been together through thick and thin.Please help me and i hope this wasn't to long. (link)
She is NOT your friend. True friends would never do that to you.


18f
situation: my best guy friend has invited me up to his farm to go horseriding... i will have to sleep over there.

Problem: last time i went to his place we got totally blind and ended up making out. he got my top off before i came to my senses and stopped.(it went no further) i told him that i thought it was wrong and i didn't want to ruin our friendship. he said that it was okay and we worked through it and saved our friendship. i know he still likes me - he told me so - but i dont like him. i told him that i would only go if he behaves himself. he said "i wont do anything, dont worry." but i'm not sure.

question: do you think he is being honest? he has tried to kiss me since 'the incident' but i backed off and he apologized. i said i'd go... should i try back out? or just go to his place? (link)
Be a smart girl and don't even put yourself in an awkward or potentially dangerous position. Say, No thanks. If you're not sure, then you already have the vibe that somethings not right and you should never put yourself in that spot!


Ok, so I'm 18, f and I live in the boarding school in India. There's a guy in my class who I've knon for about a year now, he was my cousin's friend before I joined this school and now he's my class mate. I joined school in August 2004 and Ihad been mailing and chatting with him since May 2004. On the net he was the sweetest guy ever, and he was there for me when I needed him and he made me laugh and he was an amazing guy, and I fell in love with him, with who he was online. But then when I finally got to school hewould ignore me and just say hi/bye whereas just a month ago we were practically best friends. Nevertheless, my heart refused to forget the guy he was online and I fell even deeper in love with him. And so, I did somethings which ended up in me making a fool of myself and getting very hurt and him finding out. School broke upin December and when I logged back online, there he was, the guy I originally fell in love with. ANd it was just as if nothing had happened in between and we sort of picked it up in between, but this time, before going bacl to school I told him that I had stopped liking him and I had a bf, which was not true. But because of this lie, our relationship at school has become considerably better and we talk occaisonally now. The thing is, he likes this other girl who doesn't like him back and it kills me to see them together (they're friends) and I hate it, I just want to know if there's anything I can do to get him, I'm crazy about him!!!! (link)
You need to be very careful playing games like that. People tend to say all kinds of things in emails... lots of things they would never say in person. If you wouldn't say it in person then do NOT put it in writing! It sounds like he likes the mysterious email/chat thing, but doesn't like you that much in person? and he just wants to be friends. Just keep being you, not who you think he wants you to be and if it's meant to be, it will happen. Patience is the name of the game and in the meantime don't close yourself off to anyone else.


im saying a eulogy at my grandmas mass tomorrow, how can i start it...leave ur AIM sn so i can IM u, i dont want all the details all over here...thanks (link)
One thing you can do is to tell a couple of nice stories of a time you remember with her doing something nice or funny.


I just got contacts yesterday and i can never ever get them in.. any help? (link)
It takes a lot of practice! Before I got mine, the doc's office made me take a couple lessons on how to put them in, take them out and clean them.

Always do them in the same order so you don't mix them up. She taught me how to hold one on my index finger and then while holding your head straight down, hold your bottom and top eyelids open with your middle fingers. Look right at the contact as you put it in. If the contact is good and clean, you shouldn't feel a thing (just cool and fresh). If the contact is inside out, it's sometimes hard to tell, but once you get it in you'll feel a little lip on the edge as you blink your eyes.

Always wash your hands before you put you fingers anywhere near your eyes. Hope it helps! If not, ask the doc's office for some help tips.
