Hi, I need some advice on how to lose about 5 pounds by the middle of August or sooner. Please help me!! (link)
|
Eat healthier and exercise. The classic combo.
I personally recommend trying DDR (Dance Dance Revolution). It is fun, and great aerobic exercise.

Explain to your parents that he respects you and he treats you well. That is much more important than skin color.
Put it to them this way: would they rather you have a good man who happens to be black, or date a white bastard?

I'm 15/F turning 16 in october. I'm desperate to get a babysitting job, so my cousin told me to make flyers to put around my neighborhood.
What should kind of information should I put on the flyer, like my name and phone number.
How should I decorate it and what additional information should I add?
Lastly, what SHOULDN'T I put on my flyer?
Thanks guys. ♥ (link)

Put info on your age and experience. Also, if you are CPR certified or have taken any training classes, post that. Anything that makes their children safer appeals to parents.

okay I had a plant and it was growing real good then my cat that is allowed to go out side knocked over the whole pot and now my flowers are gone what should I do and saying not to let the cat out is not a option because we have a dog door and I am really disapointed what should I do (link)
| |
Put it where kitty can't get it, or get a planter too heavy for kitty to mess with(or put a brick in it, etc).

Hey i'm 5'4 and 135-140 pounds. I'm not really chubby hust a little cause i have a 36c chest. I wanna tone my stomach up so instead of a tankini when i go to the beach in auguest i can wear a bikini. i already run 2 miles a day, what else can i do? is there enough time?
-thanks! (link)

Try doing crunches regularly. They will definitely help.
If you can, check the local gym or YMCA. Sometimes they have classes specifically for toning the stomach.

Im looking for a dog, and i dont like small dogs. My mom however, if like pretty afraid of big dogs, a neat freak, and cant stand dominent dogs. I really wanted a Lab or a Pit bull, but my mom says that labs are way too active for her, and pitbulls of course were always out of the question. I also really like huskies. i was wondering, do you know if they are like hyperactive and likely to jump on you like labs? i have a large back yard, and a big house.
THANX SO MUCH. i rate high. (link)
|
Huskies are very active.
I'd recommend perhaps a collie or a golden retriever. Or perhaps a mid-sized dog.
Do some research on breeds. Animal Planet has a great thing on their website to help find the perfect dog breed for you.

I'm 13 years old and I got pregnant. My friends think I'm ready to be a parent, but I haven't told my parents about it yet because they will scold me. Should I go for abortion? WIll it hurt? At least I won't drop out of school, right? I'm really at a loss! I know abortion is wrong but I hate babies! I don't want one!! What do I do?!
Signed,
Helpless (link)

Tell your parents. They'll freak, but then they'll help you.
At 13, you aren't ready to be a parent. But I personally believe abortions are wrong. Find a pregnancy resource center. They can help give you info on adoption and such.
Also, have you talked to the father yet?
You won't have to drop out of school. If you feel uncomfortable, you could homeschool for a short while, 'til the situation is resolved.

ok my boyfriend lives like 25 minutes away from me and goes to a diff. high school. We started going out about 2 weeks ago. At first he was like "omg i love you" now its just "heyy." he still says i love you and all that..but i just dont get the same excitmentt i used to get from him when we talk. He dosnt text me as much as he did before and everynight he calls and says he'll call me the next day and ends up calling me at like 11 at night. Since he lives a little while from me we cant hang out like any usual ppl would like all the time, and that makes it even harder. But i do try a bunch to get him to go places and see if he can hang out but i dont feel like hes even trying..and no i didnt give anything up easy if thats what ur thinking..all we have done is makeout. I thought he was my perfect guy at first i really did. I thought i might even be in love..but then he started being liek this liek 3 days ago..and i thought i should give him some time..but i dont wanna keep this relationship ggoing if its not gunna happen..sorry its so long..helpp (link)
| |
It sounds like he may have found a girl at his school or something like that. I'd recommend confronting him about it. Tell him how you feel about the situation. Watch his reactions. If he doesn't try after that, assume its a lost cause and move on.
|
|
There's someone, someone I love. We were so perfect, but if there's something he doesnt like about me, he'll confront me on it after we have broken up. We were "friends" everytime after we broke up, except this time. It's gotten so bad. He cusses me out on everything, and leads me to believe that he wants to get back together. I want him really bad again, and I keep falling for him, really hard too. It's crazy and mixed up. Everything is so weird and my relationship is way too long to explain, but from that what should I do? (link)
|
He is having mixed feelings and doesn't know how to deal with them. But that doesn't give him the right to mistreat you. Tell him firmly that if he wants to get back together, he's got to clean up his act and clean out his mouth. Don't put up with that kind of crap.
I'd recommend giving him a month or so, see if he straightens up, then try to find someone who will give you the respect that you truly deserve.

(link)

It can be hard to get over a messy breakup. But don't try too hard to get over it. By purposely trying to ignore it, you'll only think about it more.
Just go and have fun! Do some things that he wouldn't have ever done with you anyway. You know, girl things. Watch chick fliks, or movies with cute guys, go on a shopping marathon, and eat tons of chocolate fondue, things like that.
Stick to your friends. If things get rough, find a shoulder to cry on. Things will get better, it just takes time.

Hi i need to teach a dog not to dig. Does anyone here have any suggestions? Please help. I rate 5's 4 good answers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (link)
|
One thing to do is put chicken wire under the soil.
Another thing to try is to give your dog a private digging area. Tell him to dig there, and hopefully, he wont dig anywhere else.
You can also apply pet repellants to the area he digs. Check the pet store.
Or put something sticky. They don't like the feeling of that.
Hope those ideas help. ^^

Okay well im really skinny and petite and about 5'2 and my hips are really wide! and my friend also..shes like 5'1 and she has the same problem. and is it just looks realy awkward cuz we;re tiny but theres those wide hips! is there any way i can get rid of it? Thanks! xoxo (link)

My friend, nicknamed Tequilla, has the same issue.
It will never go away. It is a part of you. So, as my dear friend Tequilla would say, "flaunt that juicy booty!"

Well, I posted here about 4 days ago, and I told you guys how much I liked this girl and what I should do to get her to like me. And well I was cool with that. Until she came over last night...Ya we where watching a movie and everything was cool, but then I went to kiss her and she goes...Why...And of course im like wut...Then she's like why...So at this point im really confused and lost. So I just lean back where I was...Sat thier for a few seconds. Then got up and went downstairs. We talked afterwards and she told me I was more of a brother to her than a boyfriend and wut not. So I asked why she couldn't just tell me how she felt, instead of making me look like a fool and feel like an idiot and she goes, because I don't like to dissapoint people. It was pretty much done from thier.
I was curious. What do you guys do to get ure mind of something like this. Cuz I can't sleep and it's really getting to my head. I tried running and playing basketball, but niether really help since I do it almost everyday to get ready for the season.
Please help me out...
Thanks, -Levi- (link)

Hmmm....
Quickest way: Find another girl.
But seriously, if you really like her, continue the friendship. Most girls will take a bit to develop feelings for someone. Gentle persistence is key. Be there when she needs a shoulder to cry on. When she's in trouble, she'll remember you. And who knows where it will go from there?

well i dont know what to do....ive liked this guy since 3rd grade and know im in 8th...i really wanna tell him that i like him but he has a girlfriend....im the type of person that doesnt like starting problems....i really wanna tell him but i dont want to just bring up the topic i want to talk 2 him about things that lead the topic....he lyked me in the middle of 6th grade and in da middle of 7th grade but now he has a girlfriend....im planning on talking to him tomorrow cause we always talk at night..so please respond before tomorrow night!! thank you soo much...what do i do?? (link)
|
Tell him how you feel, but also tell him that you respect that he has a girlfriend. Then, just keep being friends. You may have a chance before long. And a crush isn't worth losing such a long friendship over.
But no sabotage, or downtalking his girl. Those make you look bad, not her.

THANKS A BUNDLE (link)
|
First of all, its like evryone tells you. Be yourself.
Second, at 13, you don't need a boyfriend. I'm 17, and don't have one! ^^ When the time is right, you'll find one.
But if you want one now, continue to be friends with guys. If you like any 'guy stuff', tell them! In the long run, it'll pay off. Besides, if your BF was a friend first, he's less likely to break your heart.

i need some theme ideas for my sweet sixteen...does anyone have any? i'll take anything! Thanks~! (link)
|
A theme idea, hmm?
Have a masquerade!
Have everyone wear nice, semiformal/formal clothing and wear a mask. Try to coordinate outfit and mask so that it becomes a classy costume. You can keep the elegance of a sweet sixteen party, but still have some fun. ^^
|
ok there is this guy that i really like and i kno he likes me too but he is kinda mad at me right now....that or he hates me...and i dont know why....i would do anytng for this guy and i think he knows it ! but i dont know why he is mad so i dont know what to do....please help...what should i do whjen the guy i love is mad at me and i donrtknow why?

The simplest thing is to just ask him. If he won't tell you, ask his friends. But when you find out, talk to him about it. Try to work things out.

alright well my boyfriend && ii have been going out for a month and a half now.. and ive been out with him b4 but thats not the point. anyways.. the thing is .. he hates talking on the phone and like never wants to talk to me if its over the phone and i mean all of us girls love phone calls at night from our bfs or whatever and i mean my bf just for some reason doesnt like talking over the phone. anyone have any ideas on how maybe to get him to want to talk on the phone or open up more ? let me know.. i rate high =) (link)
|
SOme people just feel uncomfortable on the phone.
Consider using an alternative? Maybe IMs would work. That way, you can have a realtime conversation, and your bf wouldn't feel so akward.

If he likes sports, get him tickets to see a game together! That would be a cool idea. Maybe find out when NC is playing near you, and get tickets for that game?
