Hi, I'm a 16 year old Senior and I'm graduating high school next week. Could you give me any ideas of any fun things to do before I graduate? Please help. Cool ideas are welcome. Thanks.

Im guessing you want to do kind of like a bucket list but different i guess i would suggest doing something that your scared to do or have never done before basically something new that is kinda a challenge for you or exciting like bungie jumping or getting a tatoo or a new piercing or something for the community like helping the homeless or cleaning up an area that need to be or helping seniors or helping kids.I hope i helped :D


My girlfriend has been taking birth control for a while now, but recently her doctor had her change to a different prescription. Ever since then I've noticed she gets these bouts of sadness, usually around night time, and I worry about her because of it. I was wondering if her changing prescriptions like that could cause the changes in her mood. Is it just a temporary thing until her body adjusts to the new prescription? (link)
I think it might be side affects but maybe you should take her to the doctor and get her checked out just to make sure everything is okay. If you want you can wait a few days and see if she gets better maybe she does just need to adjust to the new prescription but i would only give it a week and after that if her mood doesnt get better then take her to the doctor. :D


my boyfriends 21st birthday is tomrrow...so this is super last minute but i just had an idea. It may be cheesy..so let me know if it is.
But i bought him 6 shot glasses (as a set) but my idea was to individually wrap each one..kinda like wrap some tissue paper around each one..but have a little gift in each one...is that cheesy? should i just give him the shot glasses

but if i do it..i don't know what i would but in them...help..fast! please :) (link)
I think thats cute and sweet you should definitely put little gifts in them it will be much more appreciated that way. Good Luck :D


I can't bring myself do do school assignments. I know I have to do them and I know the consequences of not doing so.

But I still INSANELY procrastinate. In the back of my head, I tell myself that I still have plenty of time to do it, even when, at the same time, I know I don't. Today, I spent the whole day playing video games and watching TV. Even though I have a project do do, 40 pages of reading, etc. due by Monday.

And when I DO actually get around to doing the work, I never EVER just work on it. I'll do half a math problem, then spend half an hour on the internet.

I don't even have trouble with any school subjects. So it's not that I'm avoiding them because I don't think I can understand the assignment.

Fact is, I'm lazy. I'm a procrastinator. I am the anti-workaholic. (Unless I'm doing something I love. Then I fully commit to the project)

How can I overcome this and get my goddamn act together?

Because although this is not affecting my academic performance, it is SERIOUSLY stressing me out. I'm always studying for tests or doing homework assignments on the bus ride to school, or in class. (link)
Go to the library and sit away from the computers and anyone else basically isolate yourself and just focus on your work. If you cant go to a library go to a section in your house that doesn't have a computer or a TV or anything that will distract you. Basically what I'm saying is put yourself somewhere where no matter how much you feel like going on the internet or anything you cant because its too far. And if you need the internet to do your work then do everything that doesnt involve the internet first and then do what you need the internet for and once you get to the computer close msn,fb and all that and tell yourself you cant talk to anyone or do anything until you finish your hw. Good Luck:D


I have a group interview at H&M on Thursaday.I would like to know for what kind of questions I should be prepared.

Please help me. (link)
They will most likely ask you what you would do to help costumers and will give you a senario that you have to answer and will ask you about your strenghths and weakenesses just basic stuff that has to do with your position at the job. Im sure it wont be anything hard and if you have the qualifications there looking for you will definitly get the job. Good Luck:D


i like this boy fabian but i dont know if he likes me i think he likes me how do i find out. (link)
The only way to find out is to either look for signs or just ask him. Some signs would be him looking at you, smiling at you, talking to you a lot, teasing you friendly,giving you compliments basic stuff really. Good Luck :D


20/f

Last week I ended things with my boyfriend of over a year because niether of us were happy. We've been on and off the past four months and it just got to be too much drama, and I decided it was best to end things before they got SUPER ugly.

Before I ever considered ending things with my bf, I became friends with another guy through work. Between meeting him and now we've gotten to know each other, and he's really nice, super cute, and understanding enough not to try to make a move on me now that I'm newly single.

But for the past 5 days or so we've been flirting through texts CONSTANTLY. to the point of where just hearing my phone buzz with a message makes me giggle or bury my face into my pillow, grinning. I havent forgotten about my ex and I'm not hanging out with this new guy really yet because I want to give myself time. But this doesn't feel like something I'm doing just to get over my ex.. this new guy really makes me happy. My friends are telling me it's a rebound and that I really don't have feelings for him, but I was even flirting with him before I ended things with my ex...

How do I know if my feelings are real? Honestly this is the first time I've felt this happy in a long time.. (link)
You'll know your feelings are true when you want to talk to him all the time and when you truly happy with him like you said this is the first time in a long time you have felt happy and thats enough to know your feelings for him are real. Don't listen to your friends you know whats best and whats true not your friends so just keep seeing this guy and live your life because it seems like you like him and he likes you and thats all that matters and nobody else should be interfering. Basically just follow your heart. :D


so my boyfriend and i have this agreement that when we go out and party we tell each other first and then call each other when we get back to just say a quick goodnight and to make sure we got back fine because we live far apart. He has been going out a lot lately and i haven't. And he keeps not holding his end up but it really hurts me because i expect it and then it doesn't happen. We have been through it and i threatened to break up with him over it before. I don't want to end our 2 year relationship over something this stupid because i know he hasn't cheated or done anything deliberately to hurt me. He gets home and passes out. Meanwhile, I wake up and then cry myself to sleep. I know, pathetic right? Anyway it causes a lot of emotional pain and i don't know what to do. If he can't keep up his end it feels like he just doen't care at all about how i feel.

we are both 18 in college.
(link)
I think the best thing to do is to sit down and just talk but if this doesnt work then make just take a break for awhile and see if things get better and if not then maybe ending things is the best thing to do even if it is over a stupid thing because sometimes that stupid thing could cause bigger problems in the future and besides you dont want to spend you life crying about the bad things in your relationship its not healthy for you or your relationship. The choice is yours but i suggest taking a break. Good luck :D


Sorry if I'm bothering you but just one more question. You said NOT to drink, If I told you I won't drink I'd be lying. I'm pretttyy sure I'm going to drink because it's going to be tempting and everybody already pitched in and we got the drinks at that house already. So my question is when I get drunk and I see them I'm going to end up crying, I just have that feeling. I don't want him or her to see me crying though. But in case they do see me crying, then what would I do? Should I tell him, Or should I just tell my feelings to my friend Audi, She knows how I feel about him and when she told me that they were going to be there she was like "i'm really sorry Chelo but Angel is going to be there" And I was like soo, And she was like "there's more" And I was like what? And she said "He's bringing Lizbet" And I stopped and she hugged me and said "we're going to get through this" Sometimes when I tell somebody how I feel It helps me more. But at the same time Audi always tells me "telling me how you feel calms you down at the moment, but your not going to calmed down forever. Your just hurting yourself. You need to let him know exactly how you feel" I'm afraid to do that though. Can youu help me more please? (link)
Hey dw your not bother me im here to help. K well if you need to drink then just dont drink too much keep a limit. Also it seems like you really like this guy and if this is true then maybe you should just tell him but before the party that way things wont go wrong at the party. I think telling him will make things better and you will finally get to stop worrying about the situation. I know hes bringing someone else to the party but if you tell him before and he feels the same way maybe he wont bring her. Also although talking about it to someone else will make you feel better that feeling wont lasts eventually your going to start feeling jealous and wanting to cry so i think telling this guy how you feel is the best way to go about it.


I have been trying to get in shape for a long time. I've gone on diets, and I basically know what to eat & how to exercise.
What I need is ideas on how to keep this change as a lifestyle, and not something temporary...
Also, once I hit a plateau, it's really hard to stay on the diet because it stops working for me...

Any suggestions?
Thanks for your time (link)
Believe me when i say im going through the same thing weight loss is hard and even harder to keep it up but what i suggest is eating what you want but adding in some diet food and then exercising this way your weight will be in control and have a balance and you wont feel the need to cheat. What i do is have one meal a day of my choice and the rest of the meals i eat healthy and then i exercise which doesnt make me gain weight. Trust me this will work.Good Luck


I am prganent by my ex boyfriend,and he does not want the baby and does not want to be with me...what should i do?? (link)
Talk to him and tell him he had a part in this too and he means something to this baby too and that hes responsible too and if he still doesnt want anything to do with you or the baby then you really have no option then to raise this baby on your own or give it up for adoption. I also suggest you guys go to counselling if possible but i highly suggest talking to him first and making him understand. Good luck :D


so, i've known this boy for a few years. we're both 17. we liked each other last year, but we didn't date because i was going through some hard things and i didn't want a relationship. we stopped hanging out as much, and now we started hanging out again. i really like him but i can't tell if he likes me. all my friends (girls and guys) tell me that he flirts with me, but i can't tell. what are some signs that a guy might like you ? even if he's a little bit shy ? and how could i get him to possibly like me ? (link)
Well when guys flirt they usually tease you in a friendly way and talk to you a lot and give you a lot more importance also they will be very nice to you. And if hes shy then just make him comfortable around you by telling him he can talk to you about anything and that you really like talking to him and hanging out with him and if he doesnt ask you out then you ask him out for a movie or dinner or something and if he says yes then you'll know for sure he likes you.


Is there stepps to move on.
weird question I know but I just want to totally block him out of my life. He makes everything hard. I just found out like a minute ago that tomorrow at my little kick back thing that *Angel* is going, And he's bringing his girlfriend. His girlfriend is my friend and everything but I really love him and I don't like seeing them together. I guess I'm jealous. And I wanna move on. I just can't. I need stepps or somethingg. Yeahh, him bringing her can help me more because I won't mess up and I'll be with Carlos but at the same time I don't want to be TOTALLY jealous! I really don't know what to do. I asked you this question because your answer was good and I feel like it can help but I really don't know what to do now. Help Please! (link)
K well the best way to move on is to get interested in someone else and like you said before you like carlos i believe so just hang out with him and ignore angel which will be hard because you love him but keep yourself busy at the party and away from angel and his gf that way if you cant see them you cant be jealous because your not seeing anything that makes you jealous so ya stay away and focus on your guy and like i said before dont drink because this will prevent you from doing anything stupid. Good luck :D


Ever since fourth grade, I have been good friends with this girl my age (I'm female too). We are now both 15. She is kind and generous and always willing to help. But ever since we started highschool, she has totally changed, but it could be me who changed. She is now distant and hangs out with the people I just don't connect with. I like to hang out with the laid back kind of people and she likes to be with the perfectionists. To top it all off, she is rich and extremely pretty, unlike me. I like to talk about problems and how to fix them with others and she likes to talk about her clothes, hair, and how high her grade point average is. I know she has a slight problem with pride, but I am very jealous of her! How can I get through this? (link)
Its very natural to be jealous of someone and the only way to get past it is to think of the things you like about the person to get over the things your jealous of. Basically look at your life and look at all the good things you have in your life that this girl probably doesnt have and when your talking to her just think of these things trust me it will make you feel much better and if it gets to a point where nothing is working then just avoid her and having conversation with her because it doesnt seem like you have much in common anyways. Good luck :D


I like this guy since last semester, only to find that he's in my class this semester. yay! so, we kinda sat together (in the middle of the class) for the first few weeks. we even went out for lunch once. then one day he sat at a different seat, saying he likes seating at the edge (side of the class) better. so i sat with him. but my friend told me to be unavailable, so after that, i sat at my usual seat and he sat at his seat at the edge (just one seat apart from each other actually). sometimes, i'll sit next to him, but the next day when i sit at my usual spot, he'll have this disappointed face. then one day, i was feeling miserable so we hung out. then he asked if i wanted to have dinner. we had dinner and he paid for both our meals. as it was cold, he even lent me his jacket.
the next day, i said i plan to go xxx for spring break, and he said he wants to go too, but only if i want him to. is that considered flirting?
i feel that only when i initiate something, then something will happen. one of my friend said she knows the guy and he's really shy. another friend said he's really friendly (he came by and hugged her when he saw her), and no matter how shy he is, he'll make the first move if he likes you.
im confused.
say, is there a chance for me? because i really like him. and how can i trigger his interest? im very bad at flirting, and knowing when a guy flirts...
*sorry for the long-ass question!!!* (link)
Well I think he really likes you so just keep sitting beside him in class go out to dinner with him and invite him to hang out once in awhile and maybe if you two hang out enough he will ask you out but before he asks you out or feels he knows you enough to even ask you out you need to be hanging out and talking to him more and i know some people would call that desperation but its not if you like someone so ya just flirt and the best way to flirt is to complement him on his looks and his clothes and personality and stuff and you can also tease him in a nice friendly funny way nothing too mean or stupid. Good luck :D


I have this friend who thinks shes fat what should i do?
(link)
Well when girls say there fat most times it because of low self esteem so basically convince her in anyway that shes not tell her shes pretty and that she needs to stop putting herself down like that because its not healthy and could lead to depression and if that doesnt work then ask her what would help her make feel better about herself and if she truly feels like she is fat then just tell her that if it makes her feel better you both can go to the gym and start working out and tell her that even you want to lose a few pounds (this doesnt have to be true)basically do whatever you can to make her feel good about herself.


Hi, 15, female. My best friend is a guy (same age) and he has been my friend since third grade. I am now in tenth. All of my friends says he likes me but I just look at it as he is being friendly, ya know, seven years can do that to a person. Some girls come up to me in the hallway at school and ask if I'm dating him or they'll say "I wish I had a guy look at me the way __ looks at you" I guess I like him too, he's cute and he's always there for me, he's a great person. He struggles with no confidence and low self esteem so he isn't the happiest person around but every time I talk to him he smiles and laughs. We have ninth period together and we were watching a movie today and he has restless leg syndrome so his legs were bouncing all over the place and I was just laughing and he turns around and goes "don't laugh it's just a disease!" then he smiled really big. He also has one of my animal rubber bands, even when he went on for about ten minutes the night before he took it from me how much he hates bracelets, but he took one anyway. He also does this dumb t shirt over top a long sleeve shirt or a t shirt and a sweatshirt, so I told him a few days ago that he needs to wear t shirts, that his long sleeve/sweatshirt thing is lame, so now every ninth period he takes his sweatshirt off and just wears his t shirt. He helps me with my homework whenever I ask him. I'll tell him about my life problems and I'll apologize later for dumping everything on him and he just tells me "Don't apologize to me, I want to listen." Then every few days I bring him in his favorite pack of crackers for his lunch. We text each other pretty much every night and when he leaves, he always says cya *my name* I heard when a guy says your name a lot, he likes you. He pretty much knows everything about me and he tells me things he doesn't even tell his guy best friend. Please tell me if you think he likes me, I know it's not a lot, I'm drawing a blank right now. Thanks! (link)
I think he does like you and i think you should talk to him about him liking you and if he wants to start dating or if he even looks at you that way. Honestly you are very lucky to have a guy who does all this for you and if it was me i would have asked him out a long time ago if he didnt because these types of guys dont come around often and when you do have one around you should always hold on to him. So ya ask him out but before that talk to him about what youve been hearing from people and ask him if he likes you a lot and stuff like that. Good luck :D


Sooo, This weekendd I'm going to my friend Audi's house. We are going to have a kick back at some guys house and I guess it's going to be Me, Audi, Enrique, *Angel* Johnnyy, Jose, *Paulo* And *Carlos* My problem is I've dated two of those guys before [Angel, and Paulo] And I love Angel with alll my heart and whenever I'm with him I can't help it We end up doing things. He's messed up with me a lottt in the past though. And Paulo? He kind of messed up to but just not as bad. I reallllyy liked Paulo just not as much as Angel. So it was like I loved Angel but I liked Paulo. Well anyways my friend Audi is trying to get me with Carlos. Carlos is a nice guy and everything but I really don't know. I always make bad choices. I have a feeling I'm going to mess up and do something with Angel and that could ruinn my chances with Carlos. But there is a chance that Angel might not go. If he doesn't then I'll still have that same feeling that I'll mess up except not with Angel but with Paulo. I don't want to mess up though. I neeed help. How do I avoid both Angel and Paulo? (link)
Either dont drink or dont drink too much and stay away from angel so that you wont do anything with and stay close to carlos so even angel knows to stay away from you but i highly suggest not drinking so you dont do anything stupid besides its only one night that you cant drink thats not bad you can just drink some other time and this time you can just hang out with carlos and be cool and not end up doing anything stupid that you will end up regretting.


Is it easier to get prego when you have sex and your on your period? Or is it the same? (link)
I think its the same


So, there's this cute guy in my gym class. He is friends with my friend. So, my friend has been talking to him for me and she said today "Hey, remember the girl I introduced you to in the hallway the other day?" him -> "yea, Sarah, right?" her -> "yea, she thinks your really cute, and I think she likes you" him -> "uh oh, she's cute but I don't know her a lot." her -> "you should get her number, she's a really cool person, I know you'll love her!" and he just smiled and said "maybe I will, maybe I will" Does that mean, he's kinda diggin me? Also, my friend said she'll give him my number tomorrow, if he texts me what do I say? I wanna sound cool, not over the top and obnoxious. Heeeelp! Thanks! (link)
Well he could be into you just wait to see if he calls and texts you a lot its way to early to tell if he really likes you and also when he texts just be very casual with him say things like hey whats up and ask him about his day or his interests and if everything goes good he will ask you out.
