Q: i am 13 (almost 14) and a chick. i am like realli tall for my age (5'9") and i look way older than i realli am but i cant help it. and i am also deffinatly not ugly. but alot of guys that are older than me (16 and up) like constantly hit on me, whistle at me, check me out, flirt wit me, etc.,etc. what can i do to appeal to guys my own age?
If an older boy hits on u again just walk away. Say "Don't you know i'm only 13?" They may consider how you are feeling or just walk away. I think by saying how old you are will make them think about it. They won't want to go out with a 13 year old. Good Luck! Hope I helped Rate me please1

Q: This weekend me and the gurls went to the movies. There was this guy there that i think is really cute. I dont plan on hooking up with him because i have a boyfriend and we are very much in love. Well, at the movies this guy just happened to be sitting next to me. My friends got up to go to the bathroom and i didnt which meant me and the guy we're sitting there all alone. I turned over and he gave me a kiss on the cheek. I was kinda shocked he would do that since he knew how much i really liked my bf. Then, the night went on and i wasnt even thinking about the whole kissing thing becuz after all he did kiss me i didnt kiss him... well after the movie ended i walked out of the theater and then i had to go back cuz i realized i 4got something. the guy was still there. i got my stuff then he put his arms around me and hugged me and kissed me on the cheek again. This time without even thinking i kissed him on the cheek back.. I wasnt even thinking about my boyfriend!! i am such a bad person!! i know most of u dont think of kissing some1 on the cheek a big deal but to me it is cuz i kno if my guy was kissing some gurl on the cheek i would be mad it him.. now i dont know what to do! I want to tell him but i know its going to hurt him and hes been hurt alot b4 this. But still think he should know. I have this guilt on my shoulders. If been avioding him since the whole incident... Should i tell him or not?
I think you should definately tell him. Just say he kissed me first and he put his arms around me. You still love him but accedently, you kissed the other guy on he cheek. What you did was a complete mistake and you still love him. Say he's the only one for you. Rate me please! Hope I helped!

Q: There's this guy I like, He's my best friend but i don't know what to do about it, he also has a girlfriend, he's thinking of breaking up with her though. What should I do? signed hopeless romantic
Tell him you like him.... maybe then he will dump his g/f and go with you. The only way to get a b/f or g/f is to tell that person you like them. Rate me please! Hope I helped! Good Luck!
