Talk to him and don't ignore him or anything at school. Start off by waving to him and small gestures, like smiling,
Or try talknig to him while you're on the phone sometimes. Just bring it up, like, "Hey how come we never talk at school?"
Maybe he's shy or embaressed but he should'nt be .

Does anyone know that if a cellphone that fell in the bathtub can be repaired? Or is it gone for good?

It depends...
does it turn on?
can you use it in any way?

I would take it in to the carrier or the store you bought it from adn see what they tell you
if it just dropped in there really wuick it's probably fine but if it sat there for like a minute or 2 it might be damaged
hope it helps

Does anyone have a myspace music player, or an MP3 of the song "Hollaback Boy" from Cobra Starship? It's not on their myspace anymore, and my iPod wont let me copy a few songs onto my new computer. And of course, three songs I can't find are on there!!
thanks for ANY help.

p.s. I already tried Webjay.org :]

okay well i want to wear makeup but not so much that it looks goth. i have light brown hair a little past the shoulder, brown eyes, and light/medium skin. any makeup tips? thanks!

Try wearing a brownish black eyeline, or even try a dark purple. That's what i use and I have light skin. Also, for brown eyes. your supposed to use purple eyeshadows and kinda middle shade color. know what i mean?

which one cleans my teeth more efficiently, flossing before or after brushing?

After, becasue you get the stuff brushing missed. If you did it before, you might not get all the junk outta your teeth.

Alright, well I know a bunch of unheard of bands and I want them on my ipod, and obviously, since they're not that heard of, Limewire usually doesn't have them available to download. So is there any other way I can download them onto my ipod?

go on myspace..click music..type in the band name..click the myspace with their name..then under the sogns it soemtiems says download..i do this all the time

when you click download a pop up comes up and click save then go to iTunes and File > Import
find the song name and click it. It adds it into your iTunes library!!
hope it helps!

alright so ; my best friend likes this boy whom i dated last year and i'm pretty much dating his best friend now. Well, my friend doesn't know if she really likes him or not [they have dated before]. Well, she likes him she just doesn't know if she wants to deal with him. All he ever thinks about is sex. We're pretty sure that's all he wants from her and i don't want her to get lost in that. But my soontobe boyfriend says he likes her too much to do that to her. now she wants my advice on whether to go out with him or not. What do you say?

I would tell her not to go out with him. When your friend goes out with an exboyfriend..things get messy trust me. Been there done that =] If it seems like all he wants is sex then that's dumb and who'd go out with a guy who didn't love her for her, just sex?
Even if your soontobe boyfriend, his best friend i think you said, tells you he is interested in her, he might not know if that guy really only wants it from your friend.Maybe find her a new hottis, one of your boyfriends friends so you guys can double dat =D

hope it helps

ok so there is this girl i really like and i want to tell her how i feel, but i'm already in a relationship, but i'm not happy with it soo here are my questions:
1: should i tell her how i feel and see if she likes me back?
2; stay with my current girlfriend?

First break up with your girlfriend if you're really unhappy like you've said.
Then tell the other girl how you feel and see how it goes.
Maybe BEFORE breaking up with your current girlfriend, send the other girl signals and see if she sends them back..
hope it hlpes!

Im 13/f

SO.. this girl in my school likes my boyfriend. Shes constantly hitting on him and flirting. So the other day i went up to her and told her to back off. Now she is hitting on him MORE just to get back at me. She is REALLy ugly and thinks he likes her, but he doesnt. How can i get her to stop hitting on my bf? Any advice it greatly appreciated!!

If I saw a girl flirting with my boyfriend:
I would march right up to her and say something along the lines of:
"Hey, back off my boyfriends yes BOYFRIEND. He is mine and not yours. Find your own man and stop trying to steal mine, mmkay thanks =]"

Or if you're not the bold type like I would be:
Try talknig to her again. Be kind of like,
"Hey my boyfriend dosen't like you, but maybe (someone else) does. Try him?"

If she still dosen't back off and it bothers you, try talknig to your boyfriend.
I'm sure you'll have nothing to worry about =]

hope it helps

I really like this guy.. how do I let him know without making it too obvious?!

kk thanks :)

I would start out by talking to him (duh!) If you're already friends with him, then smile around him a lot and maybe hang out one on one. Talk to him online and stuff. Make him feel important. Ask him silly little things like, what should i wear today? and then wear it and make him feel special. Flirt with him a little =]

hope it helps =]
