oka well i have this friend and she likes this boy and well the boy that she likes is my best friend bofriend.So she had told me that the boy she likes had slept hat her house and they had did some stuff.She told me that she feels really bad about it and stuff and that i shouldnt tell my bestfriend about it.But i dont know what to do because i promise her i want tell but i cant keep promise to my bestfriend i mean i have to tell that her bf had did something.I dont know what to do.What should i do. (link)
I agree with the person below. If you know about your best friends boyfriend doing some stuff and she is your best friend, you should tell her. You don't want her finding out on her own. So you should tell her. I hope everything works out.


OKAY SO iVE BEEN WiTH MY BOYFRiEND FOR 8 MOTHS AND THIS IS OUR FIRST VALENTiNES DAY TOGETHER.
i HAVE NO iDEA WAT TO GET HiM FOR VALENTiNES. HES HARD TO SHOP FOR, HES A JOCK HE LiKES BRANDS LiKE fox, HES ALSO A ViDEO GAME NERD AND LiKES ROCK AND TECHNO. i DONT WANT TO GET HiM A GiFT CARD, i WANT SOMETHiNG THAT SHOWS i CARE SO PLEASE SOME SUGESTiONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECiATED!!! (link)
There are so many cute things you can get him, look around in stores. You can get him something of Fox or a video game since you know he likes those or some music. If you want you can get him a cute teddy bear with some candy, unless he doesn't like candy but most do. Also make him a sweet card too, that will show you care. Or maybe you can get a nice picture frame and if you have a picture of the both of you then give him that. Here is one more, Do you know what he likes to eat? Like if he likes Brownies or cookies or something like that? That would be good too. So I hope this helped.


My boyfriend & i of about 5 months fight non stop every night for like the past month. We have been fighting about his exs & about stupid stuff. Such as hes trying to be friends with them even though i don't want him to talk to girls. I feel like hes going to go with them because there better.and lately he's been acting like he doesn't love me. Like he doesn't show it in the ways he used to. I just don't want this relationship to be over. I need advice how to get over this fighting. adn how i can trust him more.
Thankkkkss (link)
Its seems like you guys need a little break. Every relationship has problems and has fighting. The way you are going to get over all this is either sit down and talk this over with him or break up. If you are going to talk with him, try to not to yell or anything like that. Try being calm and steady. Maybe he will understand. Like you said he doesn't show he likes you anymore he might just want some time to be away. I know you don't want to break up with him but it sounds like you need a break. Also I don't think it is wrong for your boyfriend to have friends that are girls. So I think you should let him be friends with them. I don't think you should let him go around with them without you. There is no way you can trust him more though, he has to prove you his trust. So I think you should give yourself a little break. I hope everything works out for you though.


what is to being outgoing person?
(link)
Being outgoing is like being friendly to anyone. You are open and talk to people. You are not shy and you are known by a lot of people because you talk to them a lot. Thats mainly what outgoing means. Hope I helped.


Okay so I am In highschool in 9th grade so anyway I used to hangout with him all the time in like kindergarden to like 4th grade when he went to middle school and I stayed in elementary and he was my first kiss and we were bestfriends We even pretended to get married in my playhouse when we were playing house and he was always the dad and I was the mom... But he is and was very bad. When I was like 9 or 10 we used to smoke cigarettes in my playhouse and thats when I started and I just recently quit which is very good but back to him he now smokes and does other things he moved to Philly when I was in 5th grade and just recently came back. The thing is I think I am still inlove with him but he comes from a bad family and my parents would never aprove of me even thinking about him but he has a girlfriend but I always catch him looking at me and he goes out of his way to say hi to me and stuff. I think he might still love me and want me or he might just want to be friends again can you tell if he likes me or wants me back and sorry for the long story... I guess I got carried away (link)
Thats cute and everything but think about it you just stopped smoking, do you think its good for you to hang around with. You don't want to hang out with a guy who smokes. Of course once you start it is very hard for you to stop but you think about it. He may still like you, thats great because you feel the same way. Do you really want a 'bad boy' as a boyfriend? I am not trying to be mean at all. I don't know this guy and of course you know him much more better than all of us here. So its mainly up to you. Its your life. But I think you should stop and think a little. But whatever you choose don't go and start smoking again. Its not worth it. I hope everything goes well for you.


I am in love with this guy and he is in a juvinile dention center for somthing he didnt do and he may serve 6 months but he told me to look for a new man and i shouldent wait for him and its too long to wait but i want to know how should i cope with him being gon? what should i do? and im a female im 14. (link)
Well I guess you couldn't wait for him because 6 months is a long time. It would be very hard to see a guy you like have to go to a juvenile detention center. You are gonna miss him if you never see him. Your gonna move on so just keep looking on the bright side.


I am in 8th grade, girl. I had a boyfriend last year, in 7th grade, but only for two months. It was my first and only boyfriend. We never hooked up. Only kissed. I want a boyfriend now, but all the guys only like experienced girls. And everyone knows i only had one bf, and they dont want me. What should i do? Any flirting tips to make someone, ANYONE, like me?

[I know i seem desperate, but i am. I know i dont need a guy, but they make me really happy, when i have a bf]

Sorry its long...Thank! (link)
Ok well be neat, clean and organized, you don't want to look like a slob. Make sure to smile. I don't know if this guy is your friend or not but if he is invite him over for dinner or something. Bat your eyelashes. This is WAY WAY cheesy, but guys go crazy for it! Also be nice, don't boss them around. Ask him if he will carry your books or backpack or something. Compliment him, and give him cute notes but don't go and say I love you in it. Ask him for homework help. Always wear cute clothes that express you. Also touch him a little like when you are talking to him just touch his arm.


I really like this guy rob. He is smart, funny, nice, sweet, cute, and he likes me too, i think. Whenever i see him he always comes up to me and talks to me, and is always trying to sit near me.

Then this guy Kenny moved here. He is one of those guys whos obnoxious and thinks everyone likes him. He spread a rumor that we hooked up and that we were friends with benefits.

Since that rumor started rob hasnt come up to me, or sat with me. I always sit with him and go oh my god i HATE kenny. I would never hook up with him, hes so ugly. I dont want to be fwb with him, and im not. But rob just gives me a dirty look. He hasnt hooked up with anyone, or even kissed anyone, and i never hooked up wiith anyone, but i have kissed a lot of guys.

What do i do? I am not the bold type who will go up and just kiss a guy. But idk what to do anymore! He just wont listen to me, and i am always flirting with him, but he just gets this sad look on his face, and i feel like i really hurt him. I really like him and want to hook up with huim but idk how i could, hes not talking to me!

Any advice helps! THanks! (link)
I think you should try talking to him about it. You should ask him why he is not talking to you. Also I think you should watch what you say around him too. Like the Oh my God I hate Kenny. He's ugly, so on. He may have given you a dirty look because of that or he may think that you like him and you are just saying that. I hope everything works out for you.


ok, so i have these 2 friends (lets call them Daina and Crystal) whenever i like this guy, of course i tell Daina...at first shes like eww or awwe (the regular reaction) but then a while later i hear from Crystal that Daina "all of a sudden likes him to" ....is Daina TRYING to make me mad or something?!?! and then i have to keep it s secret that i know because im actually not supposed to know...should i stop telling Daina who i like??

PS and sometimes it happens to me but involving other friends... (link)
Well this could have a whole bunch of other reasons to it but it may be because your friend just starts noticing him because you like him. So once she sees why you like him she starts liking him. That could be one case. Daina could also be trying to get a guy before you or something like that but I don't know the person so I don't know what she is like. Maybe you should stop telling her who you like but thats your decision. It depends on what you think of her and what your trust is like with her too.


i've been dating my boyfriend for a year and a half. we're really in love but ever month almost he does something so selfish and stupid i don't know what to do!!! I'm tired of getting mad at him, because he doesn't mean to do stupid stuff and it just tears us apart when we fight, so i started to let alot of stuff go. but now he's blowing me off all the time and lying. when i do get mad at him he acts so cocky he doesnt even try to apologize he just says alright fine and avoids me the whole day - doesnt call or anything. then he'll text me saying "hey whats up lets hang out" im like no!!! his mom always used to tell him to ignore a girl and she'll forget she's mad because she'll be to busy trying to win his attention - but i've told him more than once games don't work with me.

he used to be the sweetest boyfriend ever, he was always there for me and always honest. he would call me just because he said he wanted to hear my voice. but now he's acting like he owns me. i know he loves me, he doesn't wantto break up and when i mention it he goes crazy. I don't want to break up but he never really listens, what should i do? how can i convince my boyfriend to stop acting like this! i love him i just want to work it out (link)
A lot of boys don't understand. You just need to talk to him about it. If he doesn't listen to you then what else can you do? Even if he really loves you he would listen. You need to sit down and talk to him about it. You are loving a guy of how he used to be and people change. I just think you should talk to him or maybe take a little break from him and he will come back and realize whats going on. He probably doesn't realize how he is acting you just need to show it to him. I hope everything goes well for you though.


17/f. I've been a bit lonely lately. Me and my last boyfriend never worked out (i was pressured into a relationship with him that i never wanted) and we hardly talk anymore mainly coz i dont want him to think that i miss him. I dont miss him at all so i dont want him to think that i do.
I really liked a guy who had to go back home (overseas) just a few months ago. I was lonely before he came along and he was a bit older than me but i really liked him, then we ended up hooking up and now hes gone so im lonely again.
My best friend in the whole world (male) has had to move state and now i dont know what to do with myself.
I have friends, although not that many anymore because i have found out who my true friends are. And unfortunately most of them are moving away or changing schools for grad year.
I know friends are great and everything but theres nothing quite like having a nice boy and now i dont know what to do. i dont want to go and join a club or a group or get involved in a new activity really. coz i dont like that sort of stuff.
but i just dont know what to do. why do i bother getting up in the mornings? (link)
Well you never know if you never try. You should go out more and meet guys and I think you should go into some club or group or some kind or sport maybe. Even if its not your thing you can always try something new and you never know you might like it. Thats one of the only ways to meet guys, if you sit around waiting for them to come to you, it doesn't work that way. There are tons of guys in the world and you can totally meet new ones.


okay so ive been dating this guy for about 2 years now. and we have been engaged for 3 months. he is in the navy so i hardly ever see him, but this valentines i actually get to be with him! and i want to get him somthing really sweet and special...but i have no idea what.last year i made him this little book of 101 reasons why i loved him and it had a bunch of pictures and stuff in it...he loves it! i got him someother stuff to but anyways...i want to do something better w/out doing the same thing? he is almost 20 and im 18. please give me some ideas! (link)
There are tons of things you can get and do for him.

-Most guys like chocolate so you can get him some.

-There are also cute teddy bears that you can get for him.

-Also if you have a picture of the two of you, you can get a nice picture frame and put it in there.

-If you know what kind of treats he likes you can make him some cookies or brownies or something like that.

-Even nice cards with anything would be great.

So I hope this helped


Hey, I'm a girl and I've just turned 15. I have been with this guy for nearly 9 months and i have never been with a guy over valentines day. I have to get him something or do something for him.. he has planned to take me out for dinner but that is all he has told me. I am just stuck with what to get him as a gift. I can't really spend much money and I want to show him I care about him a lot. But i'm clueless as to what to get. Any ideas or advice on guys and valentines day? I really would apreciate the help... Thanks x (link)
You can make him a cute card or something homemade like that. Or if you know what deserts he likes to eat you can get make him something special like that. Some guys like candy too. Some stuffed animals aren't very expensive so you can buy him a cute teddy bear just for him. Also if you have enough money to buy and nice picture frame and put a picture of the both of you in there. I hope this helped.


I don't know where to start....My mom has this so called boyfriend for seven to eight years. I hate him!! He is soo moody!! He'll be nice and then he gets fricken crabby. Once he yelled at me for not liking strawberry juice and not finishing it. Then after I got out of the shower last night I was drying my hair when I stopped he was yelling my name so I go down and it was the telephone so I went to the regular phone then he yelled at me because it was his cellphone!! All these things made me cry!! Then sometime when hes nice which is once a month, I walk by him he'll spank my butt or put me on the couch and tickle me! I don't feel comfortable when he does this. Sometime he'll grab me by the private and put me over his shoulder and carry me around. I hate that! Then when we are fighting in the nice way I feel like he's putting me in sex positions. I tell my mom for him to stop but he keeps doing this! I want to move to my grandma who hates him too but I don't want to leave my mom. If I do move out this would be the second child who moved out to grandmas because of him. My family is not a big fan of him! This is so confusing to me!!Help!! Please!

Of course you wouldn't want to leave your mom but if he is putting you in positions that make you feel uncomfortable then you should talk to your mom about it privately and tell her you want to go to your grandma's. Someday your mom will realize how is acting and make her decisions. So if you want to go to your grandma's then it will probably be the best decision.


19 f. There is a guy that i work with that i really like. I get butterflies in my stomach just thinking about him! The problem is that even though we are good friends and always talk, i dont think he thinks of me in a romantic way. I really really like him! How do i get him to notice me? (link)
Ok you have probably heard this millions of times before but be yourself!

Get a new look, but don't change all of you just for a guy, its not worth it.

You said he talks to you a lot right? So make sure to smile when you walk by and make sure you have eye contact.

Try flirting a little but don't do it so much, it might scare him away. Just move slowly.

Try being around him more often like sitting near him but its not just to get closer to him but to get to know him better.

Keep talking to him, you guys are good friends so don't lose it.

Remember to be brave and I hope this helped!


So this school...RHS (Randolph High School) in NJ is the ONLY school in the STATE that is open on MLK! The thing is...like SOOOOO many kids arent going...and my parents think i need to go! But i will LITERALLY be the only one in some of my classes...just sitting with my teacher listening to them talk about him ALL day EVERY period...no joke, we have to be taught about him for the WHOLE day. Supposedly there are going to be lots of news reporters and people going to take a stand...i dont know what to do! Please help (link)
I see why you wouldn't want to go to school but think about it. He did a lot for us and it won't hurt to listen. So I think it would be pretty good if you did show up. Its just for a day and it won't hurt to be there. We owe him a lot.


17/f and he's 18
We've dated 2 years but took a 2 month break a year ago.

Okay.
We decided to take another break on Sunday night, he said we had nothing in common and his parents and friends dont like me. But what hurt the most was when he said "I dont really see you in my future so i dont see the point in still dating" He said how people never marry their first love and if they do that they end up getting divorced because they have never been with other people.

I feel like he would have wanted to break up right then but I convinced him to just spend some time apart. So I thought about our relationship and realized if we got back together I would be the only one trying to change things and he wouldnt want to compromise on anything. I think I would be miserable in that relationship.

So today he texted me and said "I love you" and then a few minutes later said "Lets try to fix things thats if you still want to"

Honestly I'm not sure what to do. He is my first love and I want to be with him, but he said some pretty hurtful things and I'm not sure if HE is willing to make changes.

What should I do? (link)
Guys get confused of what they are doing sometimes and we all say things that we though we meant but then want to take it back. I think he either is lonely or he really does want to try and fix things. You have to make sure he is willing to make changes. I think you should give him a second chance though. Talk to him because communication is what keeps a relationship balanced. And not everybody is perfect so don't expect a whole lot. I hope everything goes well for you!


i have been dating this guy for a while and i have serious feelings for him. lately we have been arguing a lot and a week ago i broke up with him because i was really upset. i didnt mean it and i told him but he wasnt sure if we should get back together. he told me to give him time to think and i told him not to make it long because it was hurting me and i wanted to know asap. well the next night he said he was really confused and wasnt sure and that there was another girl he liked and starting talking to. he told me he loves me and doesnt love her but wanted to see where things would go with them and wasnt happy how we were doing lately. we promised to do better and he would stop talking to her and we got back together. i know the girl and her brother so i know they havent been talking but this past week he hasnt been the same. he has been acting different, never calling me or asking to hang out (hes done it like three times this week), i dont ever know what he is doing or what he is up to. i dont ever see him that much anymore. im hurting really bad because i dont think he cares that much for me and the other night he sent me a long text message telling me he is so sorry about everything that he loves me and apologizes for not showing his love for me properly. tonight i called him because im so miserable and upset and asked him why he acts like he doesnt care about me and he just doesnt see it. he doesnt think he is doing anything wrong and just says that he just doesnt show his love the way i want him to. he used to i dont understand why he doesnt now. im so depressed because i love him more than anything and i want to stay with him but i feel so crushed because i want him to show me he cares. im not asking for him to call me and see me all the time, im just simply asking for him to show his love like he used to. what should i do? what should i do to help him realize how i feel and what should i do to help change the fact that he doesnt show it anymore.. (link)
Well I'll tell you my opinion. He might not be acting the same because he might not feel the exact same as he did or how he is telling himself and yourself. I think you should talk to him about this. My friend had the exact same problem recently so I think talking to him and see whats going on. And if he won't change that then he might not be Mr. Perfect. Of course my friend and her boyfriend didn't work out but he said he was giving her space, but she felt like she was being ignored. So he might not realize what he is doing. So talk to him about it and if he just doesn't care then he isn't worth it. And sometimes you want that certain person to like you but it just doesn't go the way we want it to. But I hope everything works out for you!


My face..I don't know in my eyebrow area it's kinda like dandruff but on my face which I guess is skin falling off because it's dry.

You might tell me to moisturize my skin or put lotion on it but the thing is, my face is really oily AND really dry! =/

I do wash my face a lot but i reduced it to 3 times a day and it still isn't helping. I'm scared if I put lotion on my face it'll get even more oily.

It's really gross and distracting, some of it getting stuck on my hair and bangs, just gross.

Help please! (link)
I think you may be washing your face to much, it would ruin your skin and pores, so maybe change it to twice a day instead. You could put moisturizer would work too, you could find oil free kind. Like the other person below me said, Clean&Clear works really good, I would also suggest that. I hope everything goes well for you!


When I wash my hair in the morning, or in the afternoon. A few hours later it will be gross, and oily looking, and other girls hair looks like it did in the morning, and mine doesn't? Why?


I think I have normally oily hair. Cause I can wash my hair today, and in the morning, it will be oily. Is that why my hair is doing this? Can I make it stop, so it looks good all day? (link)
Go to a hair salon or somewhere like that where you get your hair done and ask the hair dresser what she would reccomend. Also you could look through some stores that have shampoo and conditioner for oily hair. Hope everything goes well for you!
