Bribe yourself. Say, "if I don't bite my nails for three months, I'll go and get (Insert awesome thing here)"
Try lemon juice on your nails.
Also, keep a nail file handy. Whenever you want to chew your nails, file them.
Or chew gum instead.

my gf is really shy and its hard to talk to her cause she changes the subject i know she loves me cause she tells me ALL! the time......which i like to hear.....and i want to know wut i can do to make her not as shy....and to tell me how she feels and stuff.....and a question for other girls what can i say to her to let her know i love her with out saying it.....lik to prove it i want her to be blown away so what can i say to her that she will love? (link)
| |
If she is shy, then take things slow. When she feels more comfortable, she will open up. Do little things for her, like give her candy, or flowers. It doesn't have to be expensive. You can pick wildflowers for her. Anything that shows you are thinking of her. But don't go overboard. Again, easy does it.

I've confided a lot in total strangers lately. On this i mean. I'm happy with that it makes me feel ssecure that it cant come back on me. Any how friends of the realm. I have found myself incredibly angry these last few years. Im 16 years old and i am probably sufering from something beyond me. I jus want to know. How can i control this anger or what ways are there too redirect it. I'm only concerned because i'm starting to hit things like punch walls and anything close to hand; alll the time!! And can anyone possibly give any clues as to what this could be. All help greatly appreciated.

Sounds pretty normal. It is probably just hormones, or everyday life.
Try channelling your anger into physical activity. Get a punching bag, or learn martial arts, or play football. Some kind of contact sport.
Or take it out on lil virtual people. There is nothing like mowing down a screen full of annoying pests.

Get a trim, to encourage growth, and brush your hair a lot.

I'm 13/f and I need some ideas for the perfect room. I want something relaxing and cool, but not too girly like I used to have. Any help is appreciated! (my fave col. is blue) (link)
|
If you like blue, try a celestial theme. Paint the walls blue (not too dark, though) then add stars, suns, moons, etc. Very soothing.
Or maybe aquatic themed? (yes, I like themed rooms) Paint the walls a nice sea blue, and decorate with dolphins and fish and stuff.
Or paint it sky blue, and have fun with random decor! ^^

my boyfriend and i hang out almost every night since its summer and all...but we're running out of movies to watch. what are some good movies we might both be interested in, and what are some other things we could do together? (neither of us have cars or much money) thanks! (link)
|
I personally recommend the Princess Bride.
Try cooking together! Cheaper and more fun than going out for dinner. You can go shopping for ingredients together, and enjoy a fabulous meal! ^^
Try stargazing. Very romantic, and stars are free. ^^
|
I'm having a party soon. Dose any one know any good truth and dare questions.
I rate high! (link)
|
Hmm. It is always fun to ask about people's most embarrasing moments. Have you evers are also funny, but use random ones and make them describe it.
Dares? Making people eat strange food combos is fun. Making them wear strange clothing and run in the street is also fun, as is shouting random phrases. My favorites are slightly embarrasing impressions, such as "pretend you are britney spears" for a guy (you know, with fake boobs and all. ^^)

Ok, me and my boyfriend Cory have been going out for 9 months. Well, there is this girl named Stephanie who has been hitting and flirting with my boyfriend ever since we started going out. I have always hated this girl, so it makes the situation worse. She'd do it in my face, wherever.. she doesnt care. Once, i saw her, her friend, and Cory at this baseball field playing baseball with some younger kids and i got pretty mad about it. I forgave him and we went on with our relationship. He always compares me with her, like ill do something, and hell say, "Stephanie wouldnt do that!" then i get pissy, and he goes im sorry baby, im sorry blah blah blah... well, yesterday he was here, and i havent seen him for about a week, so i was talkin 2 him and he jus wanted to watch tv. Then left 20 minutes after he got here because I was being annoying. Well, now, i just learned that him, Stephanie, another girl, and another boy are at this other boys house. It really pisses me off because he is controlling, and I wasnt allowed to go to my friends house (a boys house), because he doesnt like the boy. So i said fine, i wont go. I really think hes cheating because he lets her flirt in my face and hes been acting really strange around me. So, do you think hes cheating? SHould i give him another chance? Should i call him? idk what to do because i dont want to overreact and i dont want to throw away a 9 month relationship! I would want to sit and talk with him but im scared he will hurt me physically and i dont want to lose him, im 14 and hes 15... what should i do?? (link)
|
To be completely blunt, your BF seems to be a womanizing bastard. There is a line between friendship and a more serious relationship, and it seems your boyfriend is crossing it with Stephanie.
If there is any fear of abuse, then dump his ass.
Look at it this way: You've spent 9 months with him. Why waste anymore, when you could be with a better guy?

RATE 5s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my little sister is OBSESSED with jamie lynn spears and her show zoey 101. she's watched every episode like 10 times and she even wears clothes almost EXACTLY the same as the ones zoey wears! she searches for them everywhere! and she always wants to role play them..and i get dragged into it! she wants to be zoey for halloween, but guess what..she's zoey EVERYDAY! this is driving me insane, my parents think it's cute. i thought it was at first, but now it's getting out of hand! please help, her room is covered with zoey 101 & jamie lynn spears. her aim is zoey101lover something and jamie lynn spears is her idol! she's so totally obsessed..it's becoming unbearable! HELP! (link)
|
It is just a phase. She'll get over it. ^^
In the meanwhile, try to slowly wean her off of it. Find other things you think she'd like. Take her to the mall, and suggest non-Zoey clothes that you think she'd look cute in. Basically, have tons of non-zoey fun. If she brings it up, just carefully, and kindly change the subject.

Take a nap. Then try to figure out the headache causer. It may be the glare from the screen (use a glare shield) or it may just be eye strain.

Guyfriends can become boyfriends with time. A good relationship, one that will last, is based on far more than just looks. So keep talking! Eventually, you may get one. Don't be in a hurry.
Spots? Try exfoliating treatments. Slowly but surely, the spots will fade.
As to losing weight, I personally don't recommend specific diets. Eat healthier and eat less. If you eat just a little less, it will pay off. Alternately, eat several small meals a day, rather than a few large ones. That will help boost your metabolism.
Another thing to try is exercising. Pick an activity you like: walking, biking, swimming, etc. Blast music while you exercise. Or, try DDR, or other dancing games. It is pretty common to lose 10-20 pounds playing. I've lost at least 5 already.

Well ok see my problem is that me and my b/f have been together almost three and a half years now and i know that 13 year old look and talk about girls but its just getting to me. he does it i guess to see if i get mad i know hes joking i just wish he wouldnt. He is only interested in talking about my boobs and stuff and i'm big C not to show off but he just say all this stuff i wonder if he really cares i asked him if he could change something about someone he said for me to be pretty..... I am pretty all the guys say i'm Beautiful and i think i am but then he laughed and said kiddin' "i'd make myself taller" and it was funny and sometimes i just brush it off my shoulder but other times i just wanna scream!!!!! I love him and i know i do people say you cant be in love at my age but i know what i feel ! i just need advice !!!
I know he loves me
I just need to know or i'll just lose it

It sounds like you and your BF have different ideas about where the relationship is heading. You may love eachother, but maybe you should take a break from each other. If you have different plans, then maybe you should go your separate ways.
|
|
i have small stretch marks on my boobs, that are fading, but still there. what is a guy going to think of me when he goes up my shirt?! is their any way that he will not notice? what will he think about them? (link)
|
Unless the guy just wants some, he really won't care.
Stretch marks are pretty normal. They show whenever your skin grows too fast. Guys can get them too. One of my friends had stretch marks all across his arms from weightlifting. So it is no big deal.
|
ok I have this problem and I'm finally admiting it I cut myself whenever I'm hurting inside I know it's bad but I only started doing it once I met this guy John. He's my boyfriend. I know I need to dump him or get over him but forget it I gone thought so much shit to stay with him I not gonna dump him unless he actually hits me. But I want to know how I can try to stop without professional help my mom doesn't know I do it and I refuse to get proffesional help?
Nikki (link)
|
If you know you need to dump him, then do so. Sorry, if I sound harsh, but if you even have a suspicion that he will hurt you, then the bastard has to go.
If you don't want professional help, seek out some form of therapy. Find a shoulder to cry on. They don't need to know about the cutting if you don't feel ready to tell them yet. But talking things out may help you quit.
Also, think of some other thinks do do when you have the urge to cut. Find some sort of punching bag or other physical object you can attack and take your frustrations out on THAT ISN'T YOU!
Hope it helped...

There is this guy that was my best friend last year. We always used to do stuff together and have fun but over the summer he got distant. At the beginning of the school year, it was fine. But then we stopped seeing each other for awhile becuase we weren't in any of the same classes. I always waved to him in the hall and sometimes he waved, others he gave me a dirty look and walked away. He has changed a lot, now he is very selfish and goes for girls by there looks. He is mean to mostly everyone and he changed so much. At the beginning of the year i had a crush on him and he understood but he wouldn't go out with me because i wasn't pretty enough. Now he won't even be my friend anymore. I miss him sooooo much how do i get him back? I'm sick of crying over him. (link)
| |
It sounds like your friend has dissappeared. This new guy isn't your friend anymore. Get over it. I know it is hard, but there is nothing else you can do.

i am 13 and i need 200$ by the end of the summer does anyone no where i can get a job in ronkonkoma ny or holbrook ny! (link)
| |
Hm... Try yard work. In the summer, grass grows insanely, so at, say, $20 a job and about 2 per house per week, you can make a good sum.

I've been reading this site for awhile now and up until I got to this site, I never realized the magnitude of idiots cutting themselves.
What the hell is the allure of slicing metal, glass or whatever into your skin?
"Oh god, life sucks, and I feel so bad. What should I do?"
Its like the people here take half of the advice here seriously and because they can't help themselves through simple problems they do something stupid and nearly suicidal.
"I know what I can do, I can inflict injuries to myself - because a double negative is a positive right? Thats what I learned in English class!"
Enlighten me? (link)

The concept is that the physical pain takes their mind from the emotional/mental pains.
I don't really understand it though. I use video games, anime or chocolate to take my mind off of my mental stress. ^^

is it normal to get a cold in the summer? because i think i have one i have a really soar throat and my nose is sooo stuffy! also what can i do to help get my nose unstuffed? (link)
|
You can get colds all year.
But in this case it sounds like allergies.
To help:
Get some decongestants.
If you don't like taking medicine, try steam. It will help with the stuffy nose. And teas with honey and/or lemon work wonders on a sore throat. If you don't like tea, the honey and lemon alone will help.

Okay so, I don't understand the whole way college works.
Your major is like..your main subject right?
But could you like do Graphic Design as your major and then do Photography too .. example?
Yeah, explain it all to me :P (link)

You can either dual major, or have a major and a minor.
