Okay, so there's this party coming up in like a month. It's one of the "biggest" parties of the year, if you will. Which means, EVERYONE will be there, and I mean everyone. I know my mother will not let me go to one of these unsupervised, drinking parties. How do I get away with going to one, or better yet, convince her to let me go?

Just sit your mum down and let her know that you won't act like how everyone else is acting. That you can't be pressured into drinking or doing anything wrong. Also, that if they party gets out of hand you'll leave immediately. And hopefully you really won't drink at the party. Arent you a bit worried though that the party might be crashed by the cops? That's probably why your mum doesnt want you to go. Anyways, try sitting her down like I said and Good Luck.

I have really bad undereyes.. they are really blue and just gross would would cover them up??

Thanks. i will rate

Clinique Consealer, it might be a bit expensive, but it'll deffinitly do the job. You could purchase some of it at a makeup station in Filenes. Or, you could go to a makeup place, and if they dont have Clinique Consealer you could always ask them to recommend something else. Hope I helped!

I went on vacation to a place where it was three hours earlier and now I am back home. How do I adjust to the sleep changes and get back to normal?

Just, try to keep going to sleep at your regular bedtime, were you are now. Even if you get tired and such, try to wait until your regular bedtime. Good Luck! Hope I helped!

Well you see, I have (naturally) VERY curly hair. It is wild.. and not in a good way. It is very hard to handle. I do own a very good flat iron, and I do straighten my hair at least 3 times a week. But now that the weather is getting warmer, and more HUMID, my straight hair goes frizzy and starts to curl. Do you know of any good products or ways to keep my hair PIN straight, even when the humidity is 100%? Thank you very much!

Hey. It's funny just yesterday I heard of something that can solve this issue. Because, its the same way for me. Go to your hair salon, and ask if they have a chemical relaxer. What it does is, they put some type of product in your hair { takes a long time to sit there though} But, what it does, is when you blow dry your hair it takes less time, and your hair will be easier to straighten, and the curls will relax, and not get frizzy and such. Hope I helped! Good Luck.

my girlfriend told me shes been stressing out too much lately and feels like she could be going through depression. i've noticed a change in her last month. she hasn't mentioned anything to her parents about it. she asked me not to. should i tell them though? i am really worried and don't want things to get any worse for her. thanks.

It would be a good idea to tell your parents. Or, you could let her know, that going through depressions is something that can be helped. My sister has been going through depression for about 6 years now, and she has help for it. Let your girlfriend know, that this is something that she does need to get help for before it really does get worse. Let her know that her parents wont lover her any less for this change, and that they'll help her out in any way. I'm sure that if you do tell her parents and your girlfriend finds out, she'll be mad at you for a bit, but probably realize that what you did was good for her. Good Luck!

we've been daten on and off lately. im 15 and he is 19 i know its illegal but we feel strong feelings for each other. and i owe him the chance of being with him since he is putting everything on the line for me. so my question is should i be with him or avoid a relationship?

Well, you can be together, but dont have a sexual relationship because of the age difference. THink to yourself, is this the guy your going to marry. He is putting everything on the line for you, your 15, you cant get married and you probably wont marry since your so young you'll want to experience other relationships. Noone can tell you to be with him or not, because it is a personal issue. But, I can give you my opinion on this, don't let him put everything on the line for you, he needs to have his "stuff on the line" because he needs to still be himself. Good Luck!!!Hope I helped!

Tell her that she looks beautiful. It'll be sweet and get her attention.Any girl would like to hear that from a guy, and believe me it'll catch her attention.

me and this kid went out a long time ago and he was my first guy that i actually really cared about and then we broke up for about a year and a half..we still talked and i always liked him..i never really stoped...then just recently we went back out..we hooked up on 3/16 and he just broke up with me yesterday because he got a ticket and hes getting his licences(spelling?) taken away and he said that hes won't be able to see me and he has to get a job and he has to move out this summer and he just wants to be single.. it really hurt me because there is no one else i want ..i meann he makes me soo happy and everything..we never got into a fight and i thought our relationship was going great...and i don't know what to do, i just want to be with him ...im so upset about it and i need help on how to deal with it.. hes the only guy that broke up with me..all the other guys i broke up with..help?
thanks in advance

You don't have to get into a fight with the one you love to break up. He probably still does love you, but is trying to get his life settled in better before he has a relationship.Its ok its your first break up on you situation, it'll be better soon. For now, just ask him if theres anything you could do to help him with finding a job and such. Be a friend to him right now during this time. Most likely you two will get back together. Good Luck! Hope I helped!!!

Aw, don't be so stressed about it. I know, it is a stressful thing, but it can be fixed. Like you said, dont worry about what other people say, but do talk to your ex and tell him it wasnt because of bad sex. Good Luck.

They change the pitch like the other advicenator said, and they carry out the notes and shorten them. Hope I helped!

I know this ex-colleague of mine but not really that close to him. I think i have a crush on him but i dont really know if he likes me at all.

He's confident, witty and a workaholic.

However, he gets shy/uncomfortable, when i ask him simple personal questions for eg: Do you go for swimming. I think he has a problem of talking about himself to new people or just not that friendly.

So one day, i gave him some sweets via his secretary (i didnt really know him that well at that time in office) and he was quite startled and stared at me and waited for me to say something when i bumped at him at the doorway.
He had those puppy eyes..but didnt say word!.
I pretended not to appear interested in him becos i was too shy.!

Later, i sent him email and was able to chat with him about work..and he responded quite well except that when i asked him for lunch, he just disappeared and dint reply yes/no.,,which was kind of weird. Cos he could have said no.

I managed to obtain his cellphone and he replies all my sms except the ones on personal questions.

I called him once but he was so weird and acted like a total stranger to me.

So how do i even talk to him tru the phone as a friend, if he's that shy since i dont see him anymore in office?what should i say to him

How do i get him to even talk to me like a normal friend?

Would appreciate your advice.

Hmm. Call him up, or send him an email, letting him know that you feel like he doesn't want to be your friend because he doesn't like to talk about
personal things. There is a chance that he is shy to talk to you because he has feelings for you. People say that if guys are mean to girls, that means that they like them, but there are some guys that if they are sweet and shy towards you and not towards others, they might like you. Don't be scared to tell him that you want to be friends with him, it'll probably break the ice. He also might just be a very shy person in generaland not open up much to people. Also, when you email him, or whatever way you contact him just ask how his day was and thats it, dont send a whole big thing to him. Guys arent always chatative at first. Good Luck. Hope I helped!

How do you get a guys (that you like) email? without being to obvious that you like him. Oh and i work with this guy. Thanx in advance

Hmm, the best and easiest way would just be to say, hey, i have this awesome joke that I should totally email to you, do you have an email address? And, have like a little piece of paper in your pocket, and a pen in the other to write it down. Hope I Helped!

I'm going out with my best friend's ( Kaitlyn )ex boyfriend. Now she gave me permission several times to go out with him so its not like I went behind her back to go out with Ross.

Well now she likes Ross again and shes using her popularity to get all of Ross's friends to tell Ross to break up with me and go back out with Kaitlyn. And Kaitlyns starting nasty rumors about me and Ross and is writing shit about me and him all over the stalls in the bathroom. Now usually I wouldn't care; but come on this girl was supposidly my best friend?!

I don't know what to do about all this, Ross and I are both getting sick of this. What if he breaks up with me cause he doesn't want all this drama. I'm afraid of losing him over all this crap and I can't stand that my best friend is completley turning against me.

First off, don't claim her your best friend anymore, because she surly isnt for doing this. Let your boyfriend know how you feel about him, and tell him if he's getting sick of this and wants to break up then you'll be hurt, but you'll understand. Hopefully he will just tell of everyone for doing this. Your so called best friend is being very immature, and being skanky to for trying to get someone to go back out with her that way. Good Luck Hun.

14/f.. I had sex with my boyfreind about 3 or 4 weeks ago and the condom broke!! I took 3 pregnency tests without my parents knowing and they were all positve!! so i think i'm pregent how could i tell my parents? HELP
I'll rate 5

Well, evidently you shouldnt wait too long to tell your parents because you need to figure out how your going to deal with this, and get all of the baby stuff if you decide to keep the baby. I suggest sit them down and just tell them that your pregnant. Most likely you'll be in big trouble, but what would you expect? Your 14 years old and pregnant, obviously your going to be in trouble.Good Luck.

my friend has this boyfriend and they drive everyone crazy when they're together because it's just disgusting. they won't get off of each other. ther're not making out or anything they just won't literally get off of each other. today we were walking out of school and they were of couse stuck to each other but he started tickling her or something but they sounded like they were having sex right next to me. GROSS. i have a bf and understand how much she loves him but she doesn't get the hint that she needs to save it for when you're home and not in school. get my point??? any advice on how to show her what it's like for us (her friends) looking in from the outside because i know if one of us was doing what she's doing she would be grossed out
thanks for listening i know this was a long one

This is crazy, but my friend is doing the same thing with her boyfriend. Lol, would you happen to be someone I know? lol probably not. But anywho, i'm trying to deal with the fact that my best friend has a weird boyfriend and that they act all gross around people. Your friend is happy, let her be. I know you want to step in and tell her that its horrible, but that will most likely ruin your friendship. What you could do, is have someone that doenst know who they are and say to them, could you guys stop, its disgusting, and making our school invironment horrible. Good Luck!
