Anyways, you say you ar e17.... not being rude or obnoxious but you don't look 17.
Your picture makes you look older than you er.
Are you just one of these unlucky people (loke me) that looks old before their years? Or something else?

Actually, I'm 41. What made you think I was 17?
When I was 17, I had hair. :D

Whats the difference between love and lust?? (link)
|
Love is still there when you're not horny. If you love someone, their happiness means more to you than your own sexual urge to be with them. You want to talk to them, to spend time with them. You're happy when you're with that person. You might be nervous, too, but happy.
If you're just in lust, on the other hand, you feel something more like pain when you see that person. It's a feeling that's a lot like hunger.
But we're talking about feelings, and *every person in the world* has completely DIFFERENT feelings. What I call love and lust might be entirely different feelings to you, and probably are. We'll never know, since we can never directly compare feelings; all we can do is try to express them with words.
Ultimately each of us lives in the center of our own universe, and we can never cross over to anyone else's universe.
Which is a poetic way of saying that in the end, the only person who can tell you the difference between love and lust is YOU. And that answer won't necessarily be the same as anyone else's.
Good luck!

my dog was 10 yrs old n he died yesterday n i cant stop crying wut do i do to get over this? he ment so much to me! we were bffs (link)
|
I'm sorry, but time is the only cure.
It's okay to cry, of course. As time passes, you'll find that although you still miss your dog, and there's still an empty place in your heart, the pain isn't as sharp as it used to be.
You'll never forget him, and you'll always love him, but your life will go on.
Remember that you were lucky to have a lot of wonderful years with him. Think about the fun times you had. Those memories will keep him alive in your heart.
DON'T try to get a new dog soon. Give yourself time. You can never replace your dog, and you mustn't try. When the time is right to have a new pet, you'll know.
I'm sorry for your loss.

hey im 13/f and i really like this kid and hes 15. i have liked him for an EXTREMELY LONG time. but, i only get to see him every friday. most people tell me just to tell him, but i have no idea if i want to, or if i even should. ebcasue i always think why would a 15 yr old want to go out with a 13 yr old girl, ya know ? there are older girls out there. but i really need to come down to an alternative here, casue i really have NO IDEA what to do/say. PEASE HELP ME (link)

There isn't really anything in particular that you could say to him; I don't know if he likes you or not, but either way, you're not going to be able to change how he feels. "Like" and love are emotions, and while words can certainly have an impact on emotions, the process is usually slow (unless you say something really mean, of course), and minor.
It sounds as if you're thinking of telling him you like him as more than a friend. And you're afraid to, because you're not sure how he'll react.
I have to tell you up front that since I've never met either of you, and you obviously know him pretty well, I'm not going to have a better idea of how he feels about you than you already do.
But I CAN say this. Most girls mature more quickly than most boys. I don't know if that's true for you, but it is in most cases. I can also say that if a boy likes a girl, a 2-year difference means almost nothing.
EXCEPT. The problem is that you two are at an *awfully* important age - particularly you. You're *just* crossing the threshold from being a girl to being a woman, and depending on your level of maturity - physical *and* mental - he may still see you as a child. Particularly since it sounds as if he's known you since before puberty.
That said, it's true that almost any boy can't help but notice when a girl is starting to mature. That's basic biology.
So what you need to do is think about how he treats you, and watch how he treats you in the future. Does he act like you're a little girl? Or does he treat you just as a friend, as if he didn't notice that you're a girl? Or does he sometimes get a little shy, or compliment you? Those are the clues that will give you some idea of how he feels.
You might also want to talk to your friends, if you can trust them not to gossip to everyone about it. Why do "most people" want you to tell him? Do they have some REASON to think he likes you as more than a friend?
Another important issue is how your family and his would feel about you two being together. Is he dating now? Could he, if he wanted to? What about you?
To be honest, because of your age I suspect that you'll need to wait a little while longer. At 13 you just might be a little TOO close still to being a child for him to be comfortable - I may be wrong about that, of course.
In a year or so that may change. There's a big difference between 13 and 14.
In any case, after you've thought about it some more (although I'm sure you've already thought about it a lot), you could always try just talking to him. The best way to find out how a person feels about you is often just to *ask* them.
You could ask him if he'd like to go to see a movie with you, or tell him you want to go to a carnival, concert, or some other event. If you want to make it less obvious that it's a date, you could arrange a group activity with some friends and ask him if he'd like to come too.
If he says no, try not to feel too hurt; he might have some good reason that he can't. Or it just might be too early for him, in which case you could try again in a six months or a year. Or, to face the worst possibility, it might be that he just doesn't feel "that way" about you. In which case, there are two things to remember:
1. There are a LOT of boys out there in the world. Many of them are sure to like you, and of those, there will be some that you'll like a lot, too. Since you're 13, you have your whole dating life ahead of you. And while you might feel now as if you'll never like anyone else, believe me: you will. The human heart heals amazingly quickly. Of course, I hope that you don't have to face that possibility.
2. Another possibility is that his feelings will change with time. In six months or a year you'll probably have changed a lot, and he'll have changed, too. He might feel differently. YOU might feel differently. There's no way to know, now.
I wish you the best of luck!

Is there any way of making more general a question that you have asked to a specific columnist? lol lucyx (link)
|
If I understand you, you've already asked one person a question, and now you want to throw it open to everyone.
The easiest way to do that is simply to go to that first person's column, copy the text of your question, and paste it into a new question that's open to everyone. That's perfectly acceptable here.

Gonorrhea is permanent if it's not treated with antibiotics. It doesn't go away by itself.
The following information is from the CDC site ( http://www.cdc.gov/std/Gonorrhea/STDFact-gonorrhea.htm ), so it's authoritative. There's a LOT of information, and I can't post it all, so perhaps it would be best to post another question under the computers topic about your computer history problem; we may be able to help you with that as well. Then you could visit the site and read it for yourself. You can also call the CDC's 800 number, which is listed below.
Symptoms: Although many men with gonorrhea may have no symptoms at all, some men have some signs or symptoms that appear two to five days after infection; symptoms can take as long as 30 days to appear. Symptoms and signs include a burning sensation when urinating, or a white, yellow, or green discharge from the penis. Sometimes men with gonorrhea get painful or swollen testicles.
In women, the symptoms of gonorrhea are often mild, but most women who are infected have no symptoms. Even when a woman has symptoms, they can be so non-specific as to be mistaken for a bladder or vaginal infection. The initial symptoms and signs in women include a painful or burning sensation when urinating, increased vaginal discharge, or vaginal bleeding between periods. Women with gonorrhea are at risk of developing serious complications from the infection, regardless of the presence or severity of symptoms.
Possible complication: Untreated gonorrhea can cause serious and permanent health problems in both women and men.
In women, gonorrhea is a common cause of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). About one million women each year in the United States develop PID. Women with PID do not necessarily have symptoms. When symptoms are present, they can be very severe and can include abdominal pain and fever. PID can lead to internal abscesses (pus-filled “pockets” that are hard to cure) and long-lasting, chronic pelvic pain. PID can damage the fallopian tubes enough to cause infertility or increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is a life-threatening condition in which a fertilized egg grows outside the uterus, usually in a fallopian tube.
In men, gonorrhea can cause epididymitis, a painful condition of the testicles that can lead to infertility if left untreated.
Gonorrhea can spread to the blood or joints. This condition can be life threatening. In addition, people with gonorrhea can more easily contract HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. HIV-infected people with gonorrhea are more likely to transmit HIV to someone else.
Treatment: Several antibiotics can successfully cure gonorrhea in adolescents and adults. However, drug-resistant strains of gonorrhea are increasing in many areas of the world, including the United States, and successful treatment of gonorrhea is becoming more difficult. Because many people with gonorrhea also have chlamydia, another sexually transmitted disease, antibiotics for both infections are usually given together. Persons with gonorrhea should be tested for other STDs.

I'm leaving for my 1st undergrad year very soon and I don't know what to do about my boyfriend when I leave. Should I try and conduct a long distance relationship?(My uni is in a different country to my home town). Or should I break up with him? Maybe a trial separation till Christmas when I return for the holidays? Or even an 'open relationship'?
Pros
1)I love him. He loves me.
2)My boyfriend and I will have been together for nearly 1 1/2 years when I go.
3)He's very sweet and he gets on with my family.
4)He's pretty good at sex.
5) He's accepting of my sexuality.
Cons
1) He's a compulsive liar.
2) I'm bi and uni will be my first real chance to explore that.
3)He cannot hold down a job. Or school/college.
4)His sex drive seems a lot higher than mine when we're together.
1)He wants forever and a family. I'm not ready to settle down and I never want to get married.
BTW we're both 18.
(link)
|
Frankly, since you're asking the question, that tells me that you already know the answer.
If you loved him so much that you couldn't stand to be leaving him, you wouldn't be leaving. Which means that you just aren't that into him. Which means that your relationship is unlikely to survive as a long-distance one. That puts a lot of stress on a relationship.
Besides, you two seem to have some pretty major stumbling blocks between you (those are quite a few Cons, and they look serious).
I'd say you should cut him loose, as gently as you can. Or make the relationship an open one, if you don't want to burn your last bridge (and if he'll accept that). It doesn't sound as if you feel that he's "the one", after all.
You're 18 and going out into the world on your own for the first time. Go, have fun, learn a lot, and meet some new people.
Carpe diem!

13/f is it normal to feel normal looking at some of the same sex naked but feel weird about looking at some naked of the opposite sex? i kno its sonfusing but im really freaked out cause there r pop ups on my computer with naked people and i dont care about the girls but the guys seem kinda grose to me....i am boy crazy tho...plz help me out! i rate high! (link)
|
I don't think it's abnormal; guys DO look pretty gross. But then, I'm a straight guy. Still, I don't think you need to worry about it.
I'm guessing that you think you might be gay, and I guess that's possible, but what you've described doesn't make it sound as if you are, now. You're awfully young; at this point, it's too early to worry about that stuff. Whatever you are or will be is pretty much out of your control anyway.
Now, let's talk about the SERIOUS problem: the pop-ups.
Your system has been badly infected. Odds are that your Registry has been compromised. That has happened to me twice, and it's always nasty.
There are a number of steps that you need to take. I can't *guarantee* a cure, but I've used these programs to clean a number of computers that have been seriously compromised.
First, download and install these programs (they're all free).
Ad-aware from Lavasoft - http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
Spybot-Search & Destroy - http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html
SpywareBlaster - http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
And if you don't have an antivirus program that is being updated DAILY, you might want to uninstall your old antivirus program (assuming you have one) and install AntiVir - http://www.free-av.com/
Once you've installed those programs, update each one of them immediately - they make it pretty easy and obvious. You need to get them *fully* up to date. Then run a full system scan with each program, starting with your antivirus (or AntiVir). Oh, you won't be able to scan with SpywareBlaster; it doesn't have a scan option, it just blocks spyware.
This MIGHT save your system. I've used that combination of programs successfully on several systems (not mine, they belonged to some friends), and they've pretty much brought those computers back from the dead.
Additional steps: you need to update Internet Explorer, if that's what you're using. This whole problem probably happened because you're using an out-of-date version. So update it like this:
1. You must be connected to the internet.
2. Click on "Start".
3. Assuming that you have Windows XP, click on "Help and Support".
4. Under "Pick A Task", click on "Windows Update".
If you don't have XP, try Start > Help and search for "Windows Update".
It would probably be a good idea to stop using Internet Explorer and switch to a different browser. I use FireFox, and it's much more secure than IE. It's free, and you can download it here:
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
You can protect yourself in the future by being extra careful when you're online. NEVER open an email attachment unless you not only know who it's from, but are EXPECTING it. Be very careful when visiting lyric or porn sites - those are the most likely to infect your system.
Make sure to keep all of your protective software updated at *least* weekly, if not twice a week. And scan every time you update.
If all that doesn't help you, I'm afraid you'll either have to find someone who really knows their stuff to go into your Registry and clean it out, or take your system to be professionally cleaned.
Good luck!

I need to to lose weight people keep telling me to diet and exercise but its not that easy even when i do do that i dont seem to lose any and when i do crunchs or situps i can never do them right HELP!!!! (link)
|
Crunches and sit-ups alone won't do the job.
It's a common misconception that crunches and sit-ups will help to shrink your stomach. But that's not really true. That sort of exercise will strengthen the muscles of your abdomen, which might improve your shape a *little* - particularly if you have slack belly muscles. But the main problem is fat.
When you burn fat, your body doesn't target any particular area; it burns fat from ALL OVER your body. That's just how human metabolism works. You need to reduce your overall body fat in order to get results.
Your best options are to eat a healthy diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, drink lots of water, and do cardiovascular exercises at leasy every other day - that is, walk (fast), or jog, or run, or bike, or swim, or use some sort of cardio machine at a gym. Your cardio workout needs to last at least 30-40 minutes, and more is better.
That will speed up your metabolism, which will make your body burn fat at a higher rate all the time - even when you're sleeping.
On alternate days, warm up with some light cardio exercise (about 15 minutes) and do weight training (muscle building, that is); you can use free weights or exercise machines. If money is short, you can get an incredible range of exercise with just a couple of five or ten-pound hand weights; those are very cheap, and you can even find used ones that are even cheaper. By toning up your muscles you'll improve your shape and burn more fat. Muscle tissue burns fat just by *existing*.
Crunches and sit-ups are a fine addition to your muscle-building regimen. Just make sure not to hurt yourself, and give your muscles at least every other day off to rest. After weight training, you can do some more cardio, if you feel up to it. But it's important not to overdo it. If you feel pain, stop and rest! And make sure to stay well-hydrated. Drink a LOT of water.
Another thing that will help is to always look for ways to get a little more exercise. Take the stairs, instead of an escalator or elevator. When you have a meal, take only half as much as you'd normally eat, so that you have to get up and walk back for the other half. That sort of thing.
As for motivation...one thing that helps is to make a regular schedule. If you know that from 7 to 8 o'clock (or whenever) every day is your time to work out, you're much more likely to stick to it - particularly once you make it through the first few days.
You can develop that habit surprisingly quickly.
The key to all this is to make the changes in your life *enjoyable*. If you don't like it, you won't do it. So if a particular vegetable or exercise is just too horrible for you, replace it with something else! It's much better to replace an element than to get discouraged and give up completely.
Good luck!

I'm a twenty-one year old girl in love with a forty-seven year old man. We met at church, went back to my house on only the second time of meeting and had sex. After that he has been distant but kind. He says he feels afraid of his own disconnection. I don't know why, but I feel more for him than I have felt for anyone in a long time. I miss him when we're apart, even though we're not dating and I play it cool, determined not to crowd him or drive him off. But do bachelors that age remain bachelors? (link)
|
The older you get as a single person, the more likely you are to stay that way. You develop strong habits, and for most people it gets harder and harder to break those habits.
It's not impossible; I didn't start dating until I was 33, and now I'm happily married and have a little boy. But I'm unusual.
I think you need to spend some time thinking about what you want from him. Do you want to marry him? Live with him? Just be his girlfriend?
Do you want to have children with him? Grow old with him? Remember, when you're in your 30s, he'll be in his 60s! That's a large age difference, and to be brutally honest, you'd be virtually certain to become a relatively young widow.
Assuming, of course, that you want to marry him and he wants to marry you.
I'll also admit that it's hard to be a father when you're older. My son was born when I was 38, and there are times when it's hard to keep up with him. That will get more and more difficult as time goes by.
And if you two were to have a child, this man would be more than ten years older than that!
I suspect that you are a glorious fantasy for him, more than anything else. I wonder how much you two have in common, intellectually. He remembers a time before people walked on the Moon. He lived through the 60s, and the Viet Nam war (although he was too young to fight in Viet Nam, of course). You're a completely different generation, and you two don't share a lot of cultural experience and knowledge.
To him, in many ways, you must seem very young indeed. Imagine how you would feel going out with someone 26 years younger than you. In your case, of course, that would be impossible; your date wouldn't have been born yet!
If you just want to see this man and have occasional sex with him, the world won't end. I'm not sure if that would be entirely GOOD for you; I'd think that it would make it harder for you to find someone closer to your own age. You could find yourself ten years older and alone, and that would be sad.
But if you want to marry him...the truth is, you need to decide what you would like your relationship with him to be, and then, before too long, you need to TALK to him. If there is to be any chance of a long-term relationship, you two need to be able to talk. So, when you're ready, and if you've decided that a life with him is something you'd like to persue, talk to him.
But don't start by telling him what you want. Instead, ASK him - in the most non-demanding way possible - where he thinks the two of you might end up, and go from there.
I wish you good luck.

Hey, I live in a country where guys like to harass people.. I need to make my own pepper spray and like I would like a recepie for making it thanks. And by the way i promise, it's for a good cause, i need to be protected. (link)
|
This really doesn't sound like a good idea. I'm not sure that it would be responsible to help you with this; you could hurt someone, or yourself. And if your living conditions are *that* dangerous, the best advice I could give you would be to get out of there and move somewhere safe!
I'll also point out that in some areas, spraying anyone with pepper spray - homemade or not - would be considered assault, perhaps armed assault, which could land you in a world of trouble.
You'd be wiser to contact the appropriate authorities.
That said...Google seems to have some information that applies. Please be very careful.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=recipe+%22pepper+spray%22
Good luck.
ADDED LATER: After reading your feedback, I thought I'd better add some more information.
One thing you should know is that pepper spray, mace, or other incapacitating substances don't always work. You could spray an assailant, and just enrage them; that could make things even worse than they would have been. If they've recently taken drugs (which sounds possible), they're even MORE likely to be able to ignore the effects of pepper spray.
To be honest, I really think you should get out of that area. No one should have to live in a place where they run a regular risk of assault and rape.
If you don't mind, I'll also paste in some advice that I wrote earlier about dealing with attempted rape or assault:
If you think you run the risk of rape or assault - if you live or work in a high-crime area, for example - it's a very good idea to prepare. Always be aware of where you are, particularly at night, and try not to be alone. Carry a loud whistle or an air-horn. Some people use pepper spray or mace, although that may not always be a good idea and I believe it's illegal in some states.
If you're being attacked, GET LOUD. Don't let them take you off to a private location, DON'T cooperate. Scream as loudly as you can and fight as if your life depended on it (because it might). Bite, particularly the soft parts of the face like the nose and cheeks if you can reach them. Claw at their eyes, HARD. You can try to kick a male in the groin, but don't count on that working - it doesn't, always, particularly if the assailant is on a drug (such as angel dust, for example).
Once you break away, run to the most public spot you can find and ask for help, loudly.
Self-defense classes are offered in many towns, cities, and schools. These aren't martial arts or anything like that; just practical information on how to save your life when you're in serious trouble.
If you've been raped in any way, date rape or assault, call the police immediately. Don't wash yourself or clean up in any way - you could destroy evidence that could help the police catch your attacker. You'll probably be taken to a hospital for the evidence to be collected. You may also be given an AIDS test, and later a pregnancy test.
There are many national, regional, and local rape hotlines and websites across America. The number one site according to Google is:
http://www.rainn.org/
And their hotline (a toll-free number, I believe you should be able to call it from your cell or from any pay phone even if you don't have any change) is 1-800-656-4673 (24 hrs).
If you're not in the US, use Google or your local phone book to find rape hotline numbers in your country, and keep those numbers with you.
If you are raped, please remember that it is NOT YOUR FAULT. Get all the support that you can, because there are few experiences in life that are more devastating. Don't be ashamed or embarrassed to ask for help.
I hope that you never need any of this information. Good luck!

hi everyone, i just decided to ask this question out of randomness, typical of me, anywayz is it true that some people call mormons devils, cuz they think its true? i'm a mormon, not that i'm offended, but i think thats hilarious that people could be so occupied making fun of other peoples religion, of course the world is full of weird people these dayz.
~Steph
ps. is anyone else mormon on this website, just out of curiosity (link)

I'm not a Latter-Day Saint, and never have been, but I've read a lot about the faith and am more knowledgeable than most Gentiles. I've had a couple of LDS friends.
I haven't heard the word "devil" applied in particular to LDS, but there are certainly some faiths - most commonly, certain fundamentalist Baptist sects - which consider LDS to be non-Christian and evil. They also feel that way about Catholics, and, well, just about everyone else, as far as I can tell. :D
My understanding is that the most intense anti-Mormon sentiment in the US is in the South, but that's not something I've witnessed first-hand; I've never been to the South.
I will say that my impression is that anti-LDS feelings run fairly deep in some segments of the US population, in part due to events such as the Mountain Meadows massacre, but more because of plain old-fashioned bigotry. As a result, I'm firmly convinced that LDS member and Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney is entirely deluded if he thinks he can win the 2008 Republican Presidential nomination, as he apparently believes. Too much of his potential base is prejudiced against him.

I am 5'4" and weigh 145 lbs, which makes me a little on the chunky side. I used to have a hard and sexy body and weighted 110 lbs. I no longer wear swimsuits or dress in tight, sexy clothing. I recently married my fiancee of 3.5 years, he met me when I was the sexy me. I have been at this weight for 2 years and struggling to lose the pounds. He has never put me down for being fat but says that I should lose weight for health reasons. Do you guys think he might lose interest in my body soon? I'm 22 and he's 24. How much can a guy take of his girlfriend being fat? And if I do lose the weight, do you guys think he will go back to the place where he wants to jump my bones again? Will he see the difference and act accordingly? What's your opinion? (link)
|
It sounds as if your weight gain has made some pretty serious changes in how you feel about yourself - changes for the worse. That's probably as big a factor as your weight gain itself. If you don't FEEL sexy, then you can't BE sexy.
And your husband has already ventured into the Danger Zone by suggesting that you lose weight, even if he used the "health" excuse. That's clearly significant, but there's not enough information to know what it means. He may be put off by the new larger you; or he may be reacting to your own feelings. It sounds as if he knows that you're not happy about your size right now.
You didn't mention if you are having any weight-related health problems, or if your family does (say, diabetes or heart disease or joint problems), but if you are or they do, that does give him a legitimate reason to be concerned for you.
On the other hand, you certainly don't sound *grossly* overweight. And many (but not all) men appreciate a pleasantly plump woman.
This comes down to two points:
1. Communication. It's the lifeblood of a relationship. If you're not sure how your husband feels, it would be a really good idea to talk to him about this. There are, of course, two problems: one is that every guy knows that he's risking serious grief if his girlfriend or spouse gets the idea that he thinks that she's fat. So we lie, by reflex, out of sheer self-preservation. The other problem is that some guys are simply terrible at communication. If your husband is one of those guys, you can work on improving your communication skills together, but there will always be some problems.
2. You two have been together for almost four years, if not longer. For a lot of couples a little of the raw animal passion does tend to seep away, after a time. If you lose weight he'll probably show more interest in you, but I wouldn't expect him to be as obsessed and passionate as he was when you first met.
You should also remember that since you're now living together, he sees you every day - so the changes in your body as you lose weight will not have an immediate impact on him, because they'll be gradual. You won't get the same sort of impact that you'd get if you went away for a few weeks and came back suddenly and glamorously thin, as far as he was concerned.
But my guess is that he WILL perk up and take notice.
By the way, if you want to lose 35 pounds and have some money to spend, you may want to look into a medically-supervised liquid diet weight loss program from a local hospital. These programs allow dramatic weight loss in a minimum of time, and they're relatively safe because you're monitored by a doctor every week. The drawback is that they're also rather expensive, costing anywhere from two to six thousand dollars.
These programs normally include a great deal of education and behavior modification training, to enable you to maintain a healthy weight after you graduate from the program. They have a relatively high success rate.
Of course, you can lose all the weight you need simply by exercising and eating a healthy diet. That takes a little longer, but the results are just as good.
In any case, good luck!

If you where a bra to bed do your boobs shrink? (link)
|
Short answer: no. There might be some temporary compression, but breasts are primarily fat tissue, and fat tissue can't be shrunk or eliminated by pressure. If it could, every fat person would be wearing a full-body girdle. :D
There is one possible circumstance that could have that effect: wearing an EXTREMELY tight bra (or binding) almost continually throughout puberty. This would probably cause severe underdevelopment, the same way that foot-binding in ancient China caused stunted and malformed feet.

OK I need help fast!! I've been going out with this guy all summer and he just IMed me and he's thinking of suicide!!! He's thought of suicide before but he's thinking of it again. My friend is going to talk to her teacher and try and see what's wrong. You see he has a beautiful girlfriend( me), wonderful friends and is putting a band together. I'm sooo scared for him. Wat can I do to comfort him? (link)

Once again younggrandma is right on the money, leaving me with little to do but chime in.
You can't comfort him. Suicidal ideation is NOT something you can just "get over". He probably has clinical depression, and that means he needs medical help. It's not his personality, it's not how he "thinks". It's an imbalance of chemicals in his brain, and you can no more fix that by being nice to him than you could fix a broken leg.
BE nice to him, sure, but don't expect that you can make things better for him that way. He needs professional help, immediately.
Also, remember that his problem is NOTHING to do with you. It's not that you're not nice enough, or pretty enough, or that his friends aren't good enough. He could be king of the world right now, and it wouldn't make any difference. So you mustn't feel guilty. His condition is not your fault.
The good news is that clinical depression can almost always be effectively treated with a combination of medication and talk therapy.
He should see his primary care physician immediately for a referral to a specialist, who will evaluate him. That specialist will probably be a psychiatrist, by the way.
I won't lie to you: it can take a while to find the right combination of medications for any particular patient. Sometimes QUITE a while. He'll need your support. But at the end of the road, he'll be himself again.
Good luck!

Yes, it really sounds like he does.
Which leaves you the question of how you feel about HIM, I guess.
Good luck!

Does everyone eventually get breasts like their mothers? Like if your mom's breasts are short and pointy, yours will be short and pointy too? (link)

It's likely that you'll end up resembling your female relatives, but it's not inevitable. But in any case, there isn't anything you can do about it (apart from surgery), so it isn't worth worrying about.
By the way, studies indicate that as we get older, we come to resemble our parents more and more.
