Last Monday we were assigned a paper about something we've failed at and how it affected us. It was due Friday.
I thought about it all of last week and quite honesty, I've never really failed at anything. The only thing I could come up with was freshman year when I got a B in Geometry when I wanted an A and I'm not kidding. So I asked my teacher if I could write about that. She said I could if I wanted an F.
So I decided that I would think about it a little more over the weekend and turn it in for a late grade on Monday.
I thought about it over the weekend--nothing. So I wrote it on how I've never failed at anything and how that makes me feel about my life. I went into depth just like the other students and it was 4 pages long.
Today, she asked me to stay after class. She told me that she gave me a zero because I did not write about what I was supposed to write and that if I don't write about something I FAILED at by tomorrow, she'd keep that zero and not change it.
I think this is way unfair because what I wrote about was true and it was still on topic. I know it wasn't exactly what she asked but what else was I supposed to do? I'm not going to make something up because I'm not good at that and I won't.
What do guys think I should do?
Good Lord, that's pretty funny. I mean, just because it's ironic!
You seem to be articulate (based on the way you wrote your question).
Try to think about a failed attempt to cheer someone up, or to not get a ticket. Maybe a failed diet attempt (most people have those).
Maybe you've failed at some sort of a sport. Maybe as a little girl you failed at hopscotch and felt imbarrased. It doesn't have to be something truley scarring, just make sure it's something you can say you learned from.

My ex-best friend Hana and I used to be really close, but ever since she went down to visit her cousin (who is pretty slutty herself) she's been acting like the only thing that matters in the world is how good she looks. It was really starting to piss me off, so I told her. She blew it off like it was nothing, which made me angrier. So, now she's started hanging out with two other girls that are known as sluts at our school, and they've really been annoying me. She pretty much dropped me for them, which made me sad. Now since she's found out that her only friends are the other two sluts, she's been trying to be friends with me again. I don't know if I should accept her friendship or not because it really made me angry how she dropped me like that. She hasn't even said sorry... Now since she's been hanging out with those two girls, I haven't talked to her at all. It really makes me sad that we're not friends anymore because we used to be able to tell eachother anything. I've made new friends, but in a way I miss my old one. If you have any advice for me then that would be awesome! Thanks
First, you need to tell her to go away. Friends like this (I've had many) will go back and forth. It's best just to end it before she hurts your feelings several times.
Also, whoever said condoms are 99% effective against HIV and pregnancy is dead wrong.
"Facts on Reproductive Rights," from the National Organization for Women
* The condom fails 14.2% of the time (due to incorrect use).
*When used correctly, condoms are 97% effective.
*Condoms reduce the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission by approximately 85%.
Another interesting fact:
Condoms provide virtually no protection against an STD called the human papillloma virus (HPV). HPV is the most common medical problem seen by gynecologists and causes almost all cervical cancer in the U.S.

ok i like this guy but i dont really know him all that well what should i do to get him to notice me ?
Be overly interested. I usually notice girls when they go out of thier way to get my attention 'like saying HI!! in the hall." He'll know you're interested.

Okay, so obviously by this title you know I'm a girl.
Well, I think I'm starting to have my first crush on another girl and I feel so weird because... well, she's a girl. (If that makes any sense).
What I mean by that is that I feel uncomfortable thinking I like a girl.
Is that so wrong?
Let me explain my feelings about her.
When I'm around her, I feel totally comfortable (sometimes I'll start to worry about how I look, because she's so gorgeous, but... that may exactly be it; I worry about my appearence because she's beautiful and maybe I'm just jealous) When I'm around her, I'm incredibly happy. When I haven't seen her in days I get sad and I miss her when I think about her.
This could just be a big mis-interpretation. Maybe I just admire her and love her as a friend and nothing more.
There are times when I think I don't like her, but then later I'll start thinking "WTF? Who are you kidding? You DO like her" and so on, until the point where I start denying it again, and... I'm just really, really confused... and I don't like any of this bi-thing (yes, I AM into guys, so yeah) at all...
What do I do? Any advice given will be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm assuming you're a girl...
Anyway, here are a few things you should concider
Do you want to make out with her?
Would you like to 'make love' with her?
If not, you're probably not bisexual.
It is likely that you just think she's pretty. People want to be around pretty people, no matter what sex they are. They also treat them better.
If you are bi, you should just choose guys. It's a lot easier lifestyle.

my friend moved away. like, really far away. like, in another country far away. sending mail to her is really expensive, and she's not allowed to have aim or email. she says we'll stay in touch, but how?
Some cellphones offer unlimited long distance on weekends. That's be a great way to do it.

heyy guys, well my one friend is really short and skinny but thinks shes "fat" (of course thats not the big problem because everyone has insecurities) but anyway she barely eats and obsesses over her weight (but she also has OCD) she takes medicine for her disorder but she wont eat her lunch at school. Well i have 4 or my closest friends and she is one of them. Right now my other close friend let it slip that the other was barely eating and her mom came to our school, and basically embarressed her by making her eat her whole lunch. Well afterward i was walking down the hall and my friends went into the bathroom to put their makeup on and found the other friend sticking her finger down her throat trying to make herself "throw up" We told my homeroom teacher who tries to fix things but doesnt. I am sooo bothered by it and I've told my friend, and we've tried everything and being patient. Its not to the point where my friend needs counceling but im afraid it will reach that point becuse she has been dropping a lot of weight and shes not even 100 pounds.(she wasn't to start with either) im sorry this is kinda long but i just dont know what to do. really any advice would pretty much help (the nice kind) and ways to help me relax would be appreciated! thanks soo much guys if you even get to this part and ill deff. rate HIGH!

You need to inform the school nurse or consular. You need to tell them that her parents know, but she is not getting the proper help.
Friends don't let friends do that to themselves.
I have OCD, and her OCD wouldn't have anything to do with her eating disorder.
I also have a friend who had an eating disorder. She got down to 45 pounds and was hospitalized. She sat up in bed one time and her heart stopped. When you don't eat, your body eats away at your muscles and organs (including your heart).
You just need to keep telling adults until someone gets her help.
She might think it's ridiculous at first, but once she gets better she'll be happy and grateful. You have to think about what's best for HER.
Once again, make sure they know that her parents already know and have not gotten her professional treatment.
Hope this helped,

I really need some help. I don’t get on with my dad at all. I hate him. I haven’t spoke to him for over 3 months despite the fact we live in the same house.
Ever since I was little I have always had arguments with my dad and now this time I have just decided to completely ignore him.
When i was younger he could never just tell me off. He had to pin me down on the floor and scream in my face. And most of the time he was telling me off for stuff I hadn’t even done!
He always blames me for every thing. I have 3 other brothers and sisters but not matter what has happened it was my fault and he still is like that. I get blamed for everything, no mater who's done it or what they have done.
But recently when ever he started a fight with me I decided to stop him, n' fight back. And now that I’m older (15) I tend to win, and do more damage then I intend to do. Once or twice he threatened he was going to hospital but he cant drive and I don’t think there was ever anything wrong with him, just trying to scare me. I hate getting into fights with him. The way I see it is that if I just ignore him and don’t talk to him then I cant get angry with him.
I was doing fine and I was quite happy not talking 2 him and just getting by without him. But now he’s gone and got some advice from some where - the doctors I think, and they have told him to phone the school and to get a teacher or something to take me into a room and to sit down with ma dad n talk about it. I really don’t want to have to do this but at the same time I really don’t feel I can talk to my dad.
My mum is on my side and she has told he not to do that, but I know what a twat he can be and I’m worried that he will. I really don’t think I can talk to him. I have just leant to hate him n I don’t think I could talk to him; I really don’t want to talk to him. I know that I will have to talk to him sooner or later but I just don’t feel I can.
My mums already told him that if he does go ahead with his plan and go into school that he has lost me for life. And I probably wont talk to him for a very long time if he does go into school.
I get along really well with my mum and she is part of the reason I don’t get along with my dad. She is always complying about him, she knows that he is annoying and childish, she say that all the time. She says how she can understand why I hate him so much. I’m not sure what she understands but I’m pretty sure she doest realize that I’m still upset about how he used to treat me as a child.
I’m worried for my mum. I know it’s probably just a silly little thing but I really don’t think she knows exactly what he is like. My dad is an absolute TWAT when she is at home but he is even worse when she is out. It was worse when I was little but he still is bad. I think that he is two faced; he is like to completely different people when she’s around. I realty cannot understand why my mum still likes him.
I really don’t know what to do. Do I just carry on ignoring him and avoiding him and hope he doesn’t go into school. Or do I try and say something to him, which I really don’t feel like I can do, I’m quite a shy person anyway and I don’t think I could talk to him. I know if I tried to explain why I hate him he wouldn’t even let me finish a sentence with out butting in and objecting to what I say, Then he will go off in a sulk and things will be even worse. I Know that is exactly what he will do, he is like that and it is what he always does, ALL THE TIME. Maybe if I did sit in a room in school with other people he might not but in. But I really really do not want that to happen. I think it would be much easier for us to agree not to get along and stay out of each others ways but now he’s going to mess all of that up if he does go into school, ill be forced into talking to him and I know that it will only make things worse. What can I do?
You may as well try. If he interrupts you, hopefully the consular will step in.
The guilt trip he puts you on is what concerns me. I've been reading an informational book about 'sociopaths' and your father could be one. They want pity. They thrive on it.
Another thing, don't go with what your mom said about you 'hating him forever' if he comes to school. She can't decide how you feel about him. I know you are both against him coming, but if he does, he obviously is trying to do something about the problem.
Please message me if you want information on sociopaths. I have a few other concerns also.

Suddenly this year I feel like everything bad is just piling up into one huge mess and won't go away. Like PSAT scores, my Dad's death a few years ago (I now miss him more than ever), crush complications not working out, grades... things like that. It's making me feel gloomy and sad and even my friend told me for the past month I've seemed kind of sad off and on. I'm not in depression or depressed or whatever, but... What are some things that can help me clear this all up and what are some ways to get me to feel better?
Walking! Yes, walking helps with depression/sadness. When you get out of a slump, you realize what you're truly living for.
I also discovered Irish fiddle music is awesome. The Chieftains have a really upbeat cd that threw me into a frenzy if emotional ecstasy. It was strange.
So yeah, music and exercise.

So I've had my license for a while now (almost a year) and I'm a good driver except when I'm in the car with my mother.
I know all parents get ire when their children start driving but she takes it to a whole new level. She points out the tiniest mistake and then lectures me about it until I make my next one. She gets so uptight while I'm driving with her that after a while I pay more attention to her than to the road. When that happens, I make even more mistakes which lead her to talk and lecture even more.
And it's not even mistakes that she points out to me. It's also what she thinks might me a future mistake. Like, "There's a red light ahead, make sure you don't run it!" or "Don't hit that truck coming the opposite way!" Like I'm blind and I can't see an OBVIOUS red light or a huge 2 ton yellow truck comming my way!
I know she means well but it makes me nerves and I can't drive.
I've asked her to try to just let me drive and it worked...for 2 days. And after the 2 days, we were right back where we started. Any Ideas?
HAHA! I have the SAME nervous problem with my dad. As for my mom, she literally tucks her knees up to her chest in fear.
There's really no way to change your mom, so you'll have to try to change the way you react to her. I've learned to laugh. Humans were given laughter to handle situations.
Just think about how funny it is when your mom freaks out, or worries about stupid things. It's like Seinfeld. Families are hilarious.

So I inherited my mom's fat ankles: / I've gotten used to them I guess but I was just wondering if anyone knows of anything that will make them look less kankle-ish? I'm thin (zero pants size) it's just my ankles. They're not a problem when I wear pants but if I wear a skirt or capris and want to wear regular shoes it looks really bad. It's not that bad with flip flops but I still hate them either way. So any help is appreciated! And don't tell me that don't worry about what other people are thinking and most don't notice because I know that. Most don't notice but I've gotten comments about my ankles before haha thanks!
I don't know how to hide them, but I'll tell you most dudes don't notice feet and ankles. At least I don't.

Alot of people smoke weed. Even my boyfriend used to but i made him quit. Even my parents do. For some reason i dont like weed. Ive never really tried it. But knowing my parents do it makes me think bad about them. It makes me think why do they do it but they are supposed to set a good example. Most of my friends do it too. I guess im just a good girl. But my boyfriend tries to convince me that theres nothing wrong with it. And i never agree and i dont think its right. Its a drug and im ashamed of everyone that does it. I dont know why though. Is there somthing wrong with me? anything will help! but please dont leave me rude comments.
Love-KMR
It's heartbreaking really. Kids at my school are the same way. I have a friend whose dad tought her to smoke, and he is worthless. It takes a strong person to stay away from the stuff.
I've talked to SO MANY people who've said nothing good ever comes from it, so I've stayed away from it.

Hi, I was wondering if it was safe to blow-dry your hair during a storm. My hair gets really frizzy if I don't blow-dry it as soon as possible, but I don't want to get electricuted! It's not exactly here, but to the east of me, but there's still lightning and everything. Please help, I want to make sure if it's ok or not. Thank you!!!
While it's safer than taking a shower during a storm, it's still unadvisable. Power surges can really screw you up and yes, it definitely can travel through the wire. That's the reason many office buildings and even home PC owners turn off their computers during a storm. The electricity can come up the wire and actually kill you.
Odds are it won't happen, but it's possible and has happened to many people talking on phones during storms.

rIssA
Experimenting with yourself isn't abnormal at all. At your age you're starting to feel different things and learning to deal with them. Discharge isn't abnormal either. I think one in eight girls have high discharge? Something like that, so it's pretty common, and some people like it.
As far as your upper body goes, you might want to try a thicker, or more solid bra. You can also ask your friends about what they do to solve to problem if you are comfortable.
Hope I've helped,

how do you tell people your a lesbian i mean do you just say it or what
thnks
lost and confused!
i rate fives
It all depends on the place you're in. You could try to be casual about it but I wouldn't announce it to a crowd or anything. I also wouldn't pull them over and sit them down, because they'll think you're ashamed.
Maybe just tell some friends and let them know they can tell if anybody happens to ask. You also must concider how conservative or liberal the people around you are.
People usually take it well though. Especially for lesbians.

okay, so this guy I was talking about before, well it was our grad like 2 nights ago and he asked me to dance......blah blah blah. After the dance we went to the park, a group of us and of course Truth or dare, i think it's a dumb game and since we were both there we had to kiss. well he kissed me on the cheek. And during this week a girl at school(big boobs) flirts with him and they were playing truth or dare and he had to reach down her bra and get a coin and also he had to kiss her. he has a horrible past. he tried pot and also at this birthday party he had to feel her up. The same girl. Now I'm confused because I've given him like a billion chances and he's blown all of them. I don't know if I should give him one last chance(which was actually the last time he screwed up) or forget about him? I'm like still in love but confused and just trying to get over him. But he says he can change and our last day of school is on Wednesday and I don't think he can. What should I do?
I'd let him go. I didn't see your post about him earlier, so I don't know how serious you were. But if you had been dating and hadn't broken up, and he cheated on you, that's enough to let him go. There will be plenty of other guys who are willing to treat you better.
Having a bad life is no excuse either. People grow up with parents beating them, diseases, family deaths, poverty and you name it, they're all expected to follow the laws. He has no excuse to cheat.
Hope this helps and good luck,
