This is going to be long but im going to try to make it short:

Ok this year i lost about FIVE "bestfriends" they all screwed me over and like i feel so upset and sad that like i treat them so equally and i would beat up anyone for them and basically i would be there for them. When i thought they could be there for me one by one they start to screw me over its just making me really sad and depressed that like you can be BESTFRIENDS with someone for OVER 5 YEARS and some less and then they just screw you over. How is that? Should i start talking to each of them? or should i just let them live there own life and keep them out of mine??

ughh itsss so sad i hate thiss

Really it depends on the degree of the betrayal could you add some details that tells exactly what eac person did? But if you feel that you could possibly forgive them and that you can talk through the situation with them and ensure that it wont happen again with them than give it a second try.

Heyy...

I'm a 13 year old girl and I just got my period for the first time...today I was out in the cold running around with no bra on...just a shirt and now my breasts are all tingley and feel funny not bad,just funny.Is this normal ?

yes it is normal and you rbreast are sensitive to your period. Try not to drink a lot of caffeine and drink plenty of water. My breast used to get a sor elump i them every time my period came and that was because i drunk too much soda so drink water because that will keep your system running nice you won't have as much pain during your period and eat healty salads/tomatoes etc. Also stay away from sweets even though they tempt you during that time try not to eat them.

I didnt exactly have sex withmy boyfrind but we were about to and he only put the head in for about 10 secs then the comdom ripped but he pulled out right away and we didnt do it again afterwards i havnt gotten my period at all this month i was supposed to get it around the 21st this happened the 22nd and no sign of it. I tok a pregnancy test and it said im not pregnant but what if its nto accurate. i have another one and ill wait 7 days to take the test again and if my period doesnt come i want to ask my doctor but i dont want to tell my mom becasue she would jump to conclusions and i know i would never be able to see my bf again

No you're not prgnant you are just paranoid. I guess it is your consciense eating up because you were doing something you knew deep down inside you should not have been doing.

I am singing the national anthem for the school's volleyball team tomorrow.

This will be my first time and I know my nerves are going to be running hog-wild.

What are some foods [I'm lactose intolerant] that will calm your nerves?

Or any medicines?

I have took the medicine but I don't remember the names but honestly you have to get a prescribtion for it so go see the doctor and get him to give it to you. somtthing that can calm your nerves is ammonia not the cleaning ammonia but it is an ammonia that comes in a little black bottle like the castor oil bottle you can sniff it and drink it with water and sugar. It is found in the South but it is a little harder to find it up north but it is usually in the gorcery stores and in drug stores on the bottle it says Respitory Stimulant becasue when you sniff it and you are nervous and your heart is beating fast it will calm your heart rate down.

No i dont but you can find out just find out what service you are getting ups fedex or etc. and retrieve your order/routing number and everything I don't know if this helped much but I tried Call any numbers associated with you r purchase and they can better direct you.

After my best friend's death her troubled teen daughter came to stay with my family. Of course there were conditions. Job, school (g.e.d.), no drugs, booze. After just 5 weeks she broke all the rules. Got fired from a job that I helped her get etc....THEN she started an affair with my teen age son. Claiming she's "in love", he works and goes to school. He was being rail roaded. She just dug her claws in deeper. It was getting crazy. I had her leave yesterday. She went to a shelter, I feel grief and relief at the same time. Maybe she should have never came. Maybe (somehow) I should've dealt with it. For at least a week I didn't sleep and eat (lost 6 lbs.). My husband is supportive of my decision but my )OLDER son (29), says I was unfair to her. What do you think, please I need advice !!!

I think in a way you are obligated to try a little harder maybe you took the wrong approach in a situation like this you need more details to make a judgement and even then one side can never be chosen I think when a teenegaer is rebelious like that they need a little extra attention and support before you throe them away and lock them down you need to talk to them especially in a aituation when you aren't they're mother and
I know she is living under your roof don't get me wrong but you got to look at her situation too. Soem times you juist have got to give a little. Please leave me a message with some more info. on the actions you took in certain situations so i can give you some better advice becasue I think that this is a very important situation and I'd love to further help in any way possible.

I am a 15 year old girl. My boyfriend and i broke up after a long time a few weeks ago. I really do love him and he told me "i used to love you." I messed up because i really hurt him and now I dont know it he is just saying he doesn't love me or if he really doesn't. There is this other boy who is really cute and he likes me. All of my friends are telling me it will help if I go out with him but I still love my ex. what do i do? should i keep waiting for my ex.. he calls me everynight and he always wants to talk... or should i forget about him and go for the new boy?

You say your ex calls you and always wants to talk he is still in love with you if he really loves you becasue real love doesn't fade that quick. I thin you should sit down and tell him that you still love him and that you are sorry from your heart for what you did and you stillw ant to be with him and that you don't want t o be alone tell him that you want to know if you still stand a chance with each other or does he just want to be close friends because if that is the case you can move on.

In the house I live in with my family...I'm the one who does most, if not all the cleaning. My house is almost always a mess. I know I can't always clean the house when it needs cleaning. I'm sixteen, in 10th & I have a boyfriend now. It almost seems impossible sometimes to manage all that. Sometimes I feel like I don't have any parents, I have 2 middle aged kids...meaning my parents...not to mention my little brother (hes 14). I don't know what to do. My parents are always nagging me about my grades so I've been thinking of asking if we could make a little deal or comprimise...that if I were to keep my grades up...they would keep the house clean as much as they can. I don't even know how to ask that of them. I'm afraid they'll just think of some reason they won't be able to keep their side of the bargin. They are overweight. But not to the point they can't clean the house every once and a while when they get home from work.

I think it is a good idea to try the compromise but that is all you can do is try it because you have to be realistic about it if your parents are messy and you siblings are messy than noone cares if your parents don't keep the order and make it a rule to keep the house clean than who will. You are the odd ball n your family not that you are not right but o one shares the same belief that you share abouit tidiness they are nasty peole they are nasty people and don't think just beacuse you see it differently you are going to change them. I say try the compromise and if that doesn't work than stop cleaning and see how they like that and when it gets too nasty tell them now that is how i feel when you all make the kind of messes you make. And, if that doesn't change them they are just set in their ways and you are gonna have to get your own home or your dorm room before you can have a space tidy to your liking.

Ramona and the store clerk are the two people in the story. THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SECURITY CAMERAS OR MIRRORS. Ramona came in and purchased her garlic tablets. However, on the way out she asked him how much should one take. The clerk said to her that most women should weigh a 160 pounds, however, she weighs a little less so she can take less. The little less bothered her so she asked him to clarify what he thought she weighs and he said 130 pounds. She replied "you don't even know what I look like" and he remarked that "I see you come in here" Telling her that he thought she weighted 130 upset her because everyone always tells her that she looks like she weighs 110 or less. Also keep in mind that he wasn't facing her when he said this and there was a partition blocking his view of her so all he saw was her face and neck. When Ramona told her friends the story all of Ramona's friends said she should not be upset because when the clerk made the comment she was standing behind a partition and all he could see was her neck and face and Ramona was wearing a coat. MY QUESTION: Do you agree/concur with Ramona's friends that Ramona should not be bent out of shape because the clerk could not see what she looked like due to the fact she was standing behind the partition and all he could see was her neck and face and she was wearing a coat. KEEP IN MIND THE FOLLOWING: (1) RAMONA WAS WEARING A COAT WHEN SHE CAME INTO THE STORE THAT DAY (2) LATER ON WHEN THE CONVERSATION TOOK PLACE SHE WAS STANDING BEHIND A PARTITION AND ALL THE CLERK COULD SEE WAS HER NECK AND FACE (3) ALSO KEEP IN MIND EVERY ONE ALWAYS TELLS RAMONA SHE IS THIN/SKINNY AND WEIGHS NO MORE THAN 110 POUNDS (4) THE CLERK ONLY SAW RAMONA A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES SPREAD OUT OVER THE YEAR AND EVERY TIME HE SAW HER SHE WAS WEARING A COAT: (5) There are absolutely no cameras or mirrors

No she should not be bent out of shape because 130 is not over weight and it is a cute weight and a coat does make you look a little bit bigger than what you are.

21/f

there is something nagging at my brain and that is my boyfriends ex. she started messaging me on facebook saying that they met up over xmas and he told her he doesnt fancy me etc.

i showed him and he seemed a little shaken by it as well and well basically we talked like grown ups about it and i believe i can trust him that she is making it up. it did help that i asked a mutual friend of both of his and his ex and he told me there was nothing to worry about.

however all said and done i am still thinking about whether he has lied to me and i am just a fool for believing him.
can anyone tell me how i should deal with this problem?

To deal wiht this problem if you want the truth talk to them both on three way or all three of you have a conversation face to face. That is the only way to get to the bottom of it do you really think he would tell you the truth about a girl he slept with if he intended to creep in the first place. Now I don't know how your mutual friend situtaion is but if the guy if he is a guy is a little bit closer to him than you he may back him up because in matters like this guys stick together and if it is a girl she may not want to get involved ( you didn't specify) but I mean don't take his word for it even though the girl should be telling you this just to make you break up with him so first and farmost get some more information for her some details and specifics to see how much she knows and if that is incriminating of him go deeper until you get to the truth. Don't blow it out of porportion righ tnow until you get some more facts.

I'm always singing. I love it, and now that I started voice lessons, I'm singing even more. But, I sit next to my crush in science. Whenever I sing or hum he's like, "Stop singing!" but it sounds like he's joking and he smiles afterwards. Does he really just like it and should I keep singing?

14/f

Oh yeah, it's not like I'm a horrible singer. I may not be the best, but I don't think he tells me to stop because I'm bad.

If you really feel like singing than sing but don't sing just to be singing or too impress him because like you don't know now he may not be that impressed with it or it may be annoying him he is just trying to be nice about it. Sometime we just have a tune in our head and we want to sing but don't sing just to make a scene.

Alright, I asked this question before, but I don't think I phrased it exactly right.

This is what I posted:

my guy friend asked me out on v-day and it was really cuet and sweet but i just dont like him that way . so i turned him doen. the day after he didnt bother me, i guess he was embarrassed, but now he wont leave me alone! he keeps talking to me alllll the fucking time, more than he used to before he asked me out, and insists on calling me. he told my friends he like loved everyhing about me. its like im in a reallty bad movie, seriously. i feel smothered by him... like he s stalking me or sumthing. i reaally need some help. i want to tell him to go away but i dont know how without hurting his feelings. tx in advance

But I have to add... the guy, who won't stop talking to me, isn't in any of my classes or my lunch, but out of the 8 times we have to walk in the halls to get to either a class or our locker, he found me 6 times! and mos t of the time i didnt see him til he was inmy face. its really creeepy. stalkerrrish help!

I don't suggest hurting someones feelings because I wouldn't want anyone to do that to me and you wouldn't want anyone to do it to you. So hear is one thing you could try when he talks to you short talk him don't be warm at all (don't be nasty) but don't be enthuised try to reply to all his statements with one or two words and when a reply is not required don't reply at all. Another thing you could do is just talk to him maybe he acts this way because he thinks you like him or there is a chance that you can make him you could sit him down and ask him how he feels about you and then let him know youo don't like him like that and he is not your type.

I hope this helps just holla at me if I left anything out!

what does make out mean?

Depending on how it is being said and who it is being said by if someone says how did everything make out- it means how did things go did it work out well. If a guy says come on girl lets make out- it means lets connect physically not necesarily sex but maybe kissing, hugging, rubbing, and touching.

we've have been dating for a few months and im a bit confused. we live really far away, around 3 and 1/2 hours away and i always told him that if it became too much, just to let me know and we'll be friends. he always said "no no its fine i love you blah blah" and that was that. ive been trying to fly out a few times but something goes wrong. the last time i broke my rib and i couldn't go see him. he was really angry because he wanted to see me, but i broke something! he always gets pissed off and i dont know what to say. im the one who gets blamed. on vday he said happy vday and thats it. basically he ignored me. i tried talking to him and then he kept asking "why are you in a bad mood". i told him that he was completely ignoring it and he said "well we arent even together so why celebrate it its stupid". i just thought he can at least talk to me or be nice. again, i said well if you have any problems tell me and we wont date but then he goes into no no i dont want that. is he being a jerk or what?? does he just not really like me like he says??

First of all if he wants to see you that bad he should get on a plane and come see you especially when you had a broken bone. He should have came to see you. Honey he is childish he just doesn't understand plain logic. You should break up with him maybe not because of how he feels about you but becasue he iosn't man enough to deal with a long distance relationship. He could have sent you roses, and candy or whatever. What kind of bull**** is that why celebrate it since we're not together he could have came to you and you'l could have been together on his part if he was a G. That relationship is too stressful unecesarily why be in a realationship that is long distance if you are always arguing and you basically don't have good realtionship communication. It is not worth it all that negative energy could be going into a new man close to home. You deserve better You should tell him to change his ways or it is over.

Last night my best guy friend stopped by around 11 ish or so. Well, I ended up kissing him, dispite the fact he has a girlfriend. I've liked him for so long, and I just had to take a chance because I didn't want to keep wondering what would happen if I hadn't done it.

Well, now I'm not sure what to do. He seemed to like it, I mean he kept asking to stay for a couple more hours, and he invited me to hang out later today. But I'm kind of curious as to what I might expect. He told me he liked it, even though I totally caught him off gaurd.

But where should I go from here?
Should I wait and see what happens?
Or should I try to make another move?

You could make another move but i mean it should depend on what you want if you are fine sharing than of course make another move but if you want him to yourself than tell him you made a mistske and that the only way that will happen again is if he is yours because men are a trip. He will definently take all that he can get as long as he can get it. He doesn't care how many lies he has to tell to string both of you along and be satisfied by both of you he will play games. If you give him an altumatem or just plain explain it to him what i said in a nice matter than you'll know how he feels about you does he care enough abnout you to be with you and only you. But, if you could take him honestly it wouldn't be worth it becasue I've doen it and if he'll do it to her for you he'll do it to you for someone else. Karma doesn't play and in the game of love you weep what you sow and I know becasued I have weeped it before. Please believe me it is best just to leave him alone until he is fair game to keep your feelings in tact and everybody elses.

I like this guy and he likes me and we both know this but he wants to stay single because he just got dumped.He is an awesome guy and people always say who do you like better me or Steph(thats me) and he always says Steph,anyways he broke one of my jelly braclets the other day and it means make out and I was at his house and we sat on the couch and he put his arm around me and held my hand and we almost madeout and we will for SURE make out...It is confussing me because we aren't going out...If it helps we are both 13 and Hes a really nice guy and cute and funny.

If he says he wants to stay single then that is the bottom line. Don't pressure him or push him because in the end you will both suffer for it he might even try to push that back up in your face rushng him is like begging so respect his wishes. If he doesn't want to be in a relationship then tell him that it is okay but that doesn't mean that you can't tell him how you feel about him explain it to him' let him know you like him and care about im and want to be with him but you have respect for him and his feelings. He will respect and admire this because that is the mature way to handle the situation. So don't put yourself in a position to get hurt maybe it is best that you don't make out because if he doesn't feel the same way that you feel making out will only complicate things because you are going to fall harder for him during that and you are gonna want more that he isn't going to want to give "why buy the cow if you can get the milk for free" he is going to be thinking. So just saty his friend and remain in his corner and if things should change in the future then make out with him when he is willing to give you something and you can give him somehting in return.

well i like this guy letz call him A , but he left 2 high school last year. he had a best friend letz call him M and he goes in my class. they r still friends and stuff..l o l
anyway last year A liked me 2. he even told me. but M seemed like he hated me. now since A left he always lookes at me a lot and a friend of mine told me that when i don't look at him he stares at me like he's madly in love with me or something. i belive her cause she's ma best friend. i just don't get it. last year when we were in 7th grade he acted like he totally hates me , always hung out with A (the guy i like) and looked at me in a weirdish way when i was passing them. now in 8th grade everytime i see M he stares at me like he really likes me. he always react when i pass him. like his friends say something and then he turnes around 2 look at me.
i don't get it. i thought he hates me?! seriously and he always walks around with his new friends and when they see me they wink at eachother and look at M. but he actes like he doesn't care then. but when he's alone or when his friends arent being so stupid he always lookes. and yesterday he was standing by his locker and thought i didn't c him and he totally stared at me. then i looked , he blushed and looked away!?
I DONT GET IT!!!!!!

help?

Well he probably likes you maybe the only reason he acted like he hated youlastyear was because he was jealous. But, I mean it is nothing to be worrying about either you like him or you don't. If you don't then just don't care ignore him and ignore the situation but if you do then talk to him you don't necesarrily have to talk to him about his feelings for you you can talk small talk with him to see where his head is at. And, if you son't know if you like him or onot talk to him anyway to see if you cna find out if you do.
