Q: well i like this guy letz call him A , but he left 2 high school last year. he had a best friend letz call him M and he goes in my class. they r still friends and stuff..l o l
anyway last year A liked me 2. he even told me. but M seemed like he hated me. now since A left he always lookes at me a lot and a friend of mine told me that when i don't look at him he stares at me like he's madly in love with me or something. i belive her cause she's ma best friend. i just don't get it. last year when we were in 7th grade he acted like he totally hates me , always hung out with A (the guy i like) and looked at me in a weirdish way when i was passing them. now in 8th grade everytime i see M he stares at me like he really likes me. he always react when i pass him. like his friends say something and then he turnes around 2 look at me.
i don't get it. i thought he hates me?! seriously and he always walks around with his new friends and when they see me they wink at eachother and look at M. but he actes like he doesn't care then. but when he's alone or when his friends arent being so stupid he always lookes. and yesterday he was standing by his locker and thought i didn't c him and he totally stared at me. then i looked , he blushed and looked away!?
I DONT GET IT!!!!!!

help?
he probably really likes you. he might have seemed to hate you last year, but i think it was just because you liked his friend and his friend liked you and he wanted someone to blame for the reason he can`t have you. but i honestly think he REALLY likes you.

Q: Last night my best guy friend stopped by around 11 ish or so. Well, I ended up kissing him, dispite the fact he has a girlfriend. I've liked him for so long, and I just had to take a chance because I didn't want to keep wondering what would happen if I hadn't done it.

Well, now I'm not sure what to do. He seemed to like it, I mean he kept asking to stay for a couple more hours, and he invited me to hang out later today. But I'm kind of curious as to what I might expect. He told me he liked it, even though I totally caught him off gaurd.

But where should I go from here?
Should I wait and see what happens?
Or should I try to make another move?
i think you shouldn`t completely make another move, but make sure he still thinks your interested or else he`ll get confused. see if he makes a move, and if he doesn`t by the end of the night, then try to make another move or something.

Q: I don't have a boyfriend. I think it's because I have a hard time being myself and staying relaxed around guys.
What should I do to be myself and keep confident?
13.
just relax. don`t think of them as like, dating material. just thing of them as any other girl, except treat them like a guy. just be friendly&stuff. oh, &btw, you`re ONLY 13. don`t worry about boys yet. live your life&have fun. you have the rest of your life to worry about boys&stuff. when you get older, you`ll know what i mean.

Q: ok so i am 16 and i am a sophmore in high school and i have been really good friends with this kid for most of the school year and then on valentines day we told eachother we like eachother but the thing is he was hurt really bad in a relationship a little while back so he doesnt want to be in a relationship right now. (which i am completely ok with but...) ever since we told eachother we liked eachother he has been saying that we can be friends with benefits and we cant even have a real conversation without him saying something sexual or about us having sex. What do i do because i like him but i dont really think with my personality i would be able to do the whole "friends with benefits" thing because but i like him. I dont really know what to do because me and this guy are VERY close friends and we can tell eachother everything but now all i feel like is a "booty call" and i dont like it.. what do i do?!?!

Thanks for the help!
just tell him how you feel. if he says that again just be like "oh, what am i just a sex toy now ? that`s all you can say to me ?" and tell him you feel like you`re being used for sex. if he doesn`t respect you&back off, then he`s not worth it.

Q: ok so my problem is that i dont know where to find a boyfriend. its not that i want one that bad its just that i hate all the guys at my school. the facts are im 15, ive had 2 boyfriends so far, and id like hooked up with a guy once when i was in europe. Now that i started highschool, i guess i had expected the guys to be cuter, and a bit more mature. well my question is where could i find cute guys to go out with, other than at school or the boring movies or the internet!? guys that arent sleezy and are boyfirend material.
you should ask your friends if they know any guys that would be a good boyfriend. meet freinds through friends ! also, you can go to other schools` football/basketball/etc. games. two of my close friends met their boyfriends at another school`s football game.

Q: So...I am 15 (soon to be 16) and this past Saturday, I lost my virginity to my boyfriend. We've been together for almost 3 months. His Dad found out and now I have a feeling that he is going to tell my mom. I want to tell her. I really do, but I think that she will be really disappointed in me. I was going to tell her tonight but I couldn't do it. Something told me that it wasn't a good idea, but then I get the feeling that I should because if she finds out from his dad, then she will be even more disappointed in me for the fact that I didn't tell her myself. I don't think she'll trust me ever again. And I have a feeling that she won't want me to see him anymore. I can already see what she is going to say. "You're only 15." or "How could you be so stupid?" or she will call me a slut...I don't know what to do. Should I tell her? Or not...
well, first of all, you should ask his dad to not tell your mom, and ask if he will let you tell her yourself because you want to. so just tell her. say something like, "i want to tell you something&i know you will be really disappointed in me, but i lost my virginity to my boyfriend, but [assuming that you used a condom] we used a condom and made sure we were safe&i`m really sorry, but i don`t know.. it just happened." she probably will me mad and won`t understand, but just give it some time. if she doesn`t want you to see him anymore, tell her why you want to see him. tell her why you like him so much&stuff. maybe then, she`ll understnad.

Q: Hi,i was wondering,my g/f is having her period and i was wondering what i could say to her to make her feel better/more comfortable about it,and what i could just do to be nice about it..especially when the mood swings start =(

thanks =)

Age=14
first off, don`t even mention pms. don`t say anything about it. also, don`t talk about her being on her period. don`t even mention it. if she does, just be nice and stuff about it. if she gets mad, just deal with it, don`t get mad cuz she`s mad. apologize. don`t tell her she`s making a big deal of something. NEVER tell her she`s making a big deal out of something or blowing it out of proportion. just be understanding.

Q: I have a question...
I'm a girls and are you supposed to shave down there? Do a lot of girls do it?
you don`t have to, but you can if you want. it`s just your preference. some girls do it, some girls don`t.

Q: okay so i have this ex boyfriend who hurt me real bad and i have been moving on which i figure is best to do. Well he keeps calling my one friend and bothering her saying stuff like its funny how someone you consider your best friend talks crap on you when i didnt say anything. Then he will call her and say stupid fat whore and hang up. Then on the 8th about 2-3 days ago he called me, i know this because he is the only one who calls on a withheld number but i didnt answer, that would of been the day of our three month. What should i do about this, he is being very immature and i am speaking of an 18 year old here.
this is considered harrassment. tell him to stop calling. if he doesn`t, and it gets real bad, i would involve the police.

Q: recently i've been falling for this guy i've known a while. we began talking over myspace ALOT and sometimes i thought he seemed to be really into me. he gave me his phone # and I did too..

Well now last night it seems like him and his ex got realy close and something "happened" between them by the joyful looks and
if you think he`s worth the fight, then fight for him. if you don`t think he`s that special and you can find someone else like him, the give up.

Q: "They're living for the present and not the future’s well-being"

or

"They're living for the present and not the future's fulfillment."

what one sounds better and makes more sense? im writing a poem for school
the second one sounds much better.

Q: what happenes if you snort pixie sticks???
nothing really, it`ll just be painful and will probably give you a bad headache.

Q: i recently got into a modeling agency and i was sooo excited! i was really afraid that i would be in a group wiht gorgeous girls & that they would really intimidate me.. but then wehn i went to my first class the girls i saw were like, relaly not that pretty. in fact they were uglier than most of my friends, who were all either average lookng or prettty. sorry if this sounds REALLY shallow, but why the heck would the modeling agency choose ugly people (this is john roberts & barbizon people!) ..i mean some of them weren't even UNIQuE looking!? sooo then i didn't feel that special for getting into the program b/c ugly people got in too..but whyy do they choose those kind of people?
i`m guessing you are in jrp [john robert powers], i was accepted there too. well, jrp is not only for modeling, it`s for acting as well. not all actors are pretty. &this is really shallow. no offense, but get over yourself.

Q: I got a new cat in March of 2006. My other cat before her was an outside cat more than an inside one. But one night she got hit by a car, and we had to put her to sleep.

When I got my new cat, my family and I decided to make it an indoor one, so the same thing wouldn't happen to her. We live on a very busy street so I felt it was OK to make her an indoor cat. But I feel horrible every day that she can't go outside. We already declawed her, so we can't just make her an outdoor cat. And yeah, I feel a little bad for declawing her because I feel it's inhumane, but she was ripping stuff up, and tearing carpets and furniture up.

When I see her every day, looking at the window, she just looks and sounds like she is sad, and I keep feeling I should of made her an outside cat, but I don't want the same thing to happen to her, as to what happened to my other cat. She just always looks depressed. I seriously don't know, but how can I tell how she is feeling?

Also, am I doing what is right for my cat? I mean if I was stuck indoors all my life I would be pretty depressed, yet I don't want my cat to feel the same way. What can I do?

Thanks for reading and anything is greatly appreciated!
well, with this problem, there are two things you can do to make your cat happier:

- one thing you can do is buy a leash for your cat. i know that sounds wierd, but atleast your cat will be able to be outside, and you don`t have to worry about her getting run over.

- the second thing you can do is buy one of those kennel things. they will probably have them at petsmart or petco, and actually i`ve seen them at costco as well. set one of those up in your backyard and put you cat in it. then she can be outside&safe as well.

Q: Ok..soo im 17/F and all my friends have had sex or have done sexual things. And of course im the one that hasnt at all. I just dont want to do that right now..im not focused on that. Im focused on other things and i dotn even think about it. But my friends are making me feel like that i should be doing that stuff..that like im a freak if i dont. And now i think..am i really a freak? What do you think about this and what should i do?
you`re not a freak. if you`re not ready, or just plain don`t want to, your friends shouldn`t try to tell you that you need to. stick with your values. don`t cave in to their peer pressure. if they can`t respect you for your choices, they aren`t very good friends.

Q: alright i'm 17 years old i've bin with my boyfriend for almost 2 years now and i was wondering if anyone could give me suggestions on how to do something really sexy for him this valentine's day like i'm going to have my house to myself and i want to make his jaw drop. hurry with your answers please and thank you.
have a nice candle lit dinner, then get one of those cute sexy little outfits from victoria`s secret. tell him to go sit on the couch for a movie, and say you need to freshen up in the bathroom. then change into that, get a box of chocolate dipped strawberries and eat them together.

Q: okay so this morning i went to the bathroom (good thing i did) because i realized that i just got my period. and i had to tell my parents- how embarrassing right. and my dad didnt believe me but then im like YES. dad i got it. so hes like trying to give me my moms like jumbo sized im like NO. so i didnt go to school. and good thing i didnt because i have the BIGGEST flow. its the MOST disgusting thing i have EVER experienced. and my mom WONT get me pads. but i talked her into it so i think shes going to get me pads later today. and i have GYMNASTICS tonight and we do like splits and flips and stuff and like its going to be so SOO uncomfortable and what if i freakin leak all over the place. EWW. i actaully have it two times a week so.. i really need advice on just like everything. im NOT talking to my mom about it cuz shes just a freak.
for gymnastics, i advice you to use tampons. trust me. my friend told me that the first time she got her period, she wore a pad to gym and it was absolutely disgusting. she uses tampons for gym, but pads for normals stuff. she told me NEVER EVER use pads for gym. just get a normal sized tampon.

Q: What do your call guys? Guys call girls sexy or hott or cute. But what can Girls call Guys?
you can call the sexy, hott, or cute as well, but you can also call them handsome, gorgeous, or even beautiful. some guys actually like that.

Q: 14/f. ok, well i've had my period before, but every stinkin time i have it i ALLWAYS get blood in my underwear. i'm running out of underwear!!! i'm not comftrable telling my mom that the blood gets in my uderwear, but i'm down to about only 5 pairs. idk what to do!! help!!
the best way to get the blood off is to handwash your underwear in COLD water. put soap where the blood is, fold the cloth over, and scrub the cloth together. that will get the blood out.
