Why is it always me that ends up with the no girlfriend at the end of the year I am 14/m and I am in a wheelchair and not sure if that is the problem or what but it has always seemed I end up not with the girlfriend and don't get me wrong I have had them but the last one I had was going on for 6 monthes but she just left me for one of my best friends and it was like a shocker to me and I just went into a deep depression (link)
Yeah, it may stink but enjoy your youth. Honestly, it sin't imperative that you have a girlfriendwhen you are 14. If you really want one, just try to make friends with the girls as best as you can. ("If you wanna be my lover, first you gotta be my friend"...sorry, Spice Girls, don't ask, inside joke) Flirt it up a whole lot. But I still say, don;t worry about it that much.


How can you build your character up and have more confidence? (link)
Get at least one good friend who loves you for you (my best friend just emailed me and pretty much said "i love you and i miss you and i cant wait until i see you" and that just made a crappy day a whole lot better). Name 10 people who truely care about you and 10 things you are especialy good at. Eat chocolate. Dress comfortabley. Don't wear anything that will make you self concious. Hope I helped!


I got a 22 on the ACT. Yes, it was my first time. Yes, I know I can take it again. Yes, I know I can take practice tests. I just want to know what other people got on thier ACT their first try. Because in my mind a 22 out of 36 is 61% and that isn't very good. (link)
Well, I haven't taken it yet because I'm not at the age/grade where I need to but my older sister got a 27. I can also tell you that the average for Havard entrees is 32-36 and New York University is 28-32.


My friend is continuing to hurt herself. When I was on the phone with her last night she cut herself about eight times. I don't know what to do she has done this repeatedly and i'm afraid she is really going to hurt herself. What can I do or what should I say? (link)
Oh man, do not just let her do it and ignore it! No, no no! It's obvious that if she told you then, conciously or not, she is looking ffor help. Talk to a trusted adult about it, preferably a counselor. The other thing you have to continue doing is being a good friend. Let her know you are there and that, when times get touch, you would rather have her come to you then hurt herself. However, do not press the issue. Still have fun and crazy times with her. Oh, and get her out of the house if you can. You can also tell her to wear an elastic on her wrist and snap it (lightly) every time she wants to do something. Better yet, give her a friendship bracelet so every time she looks down to snap, she can remember that she has people who care about her. Also, tell her to use ice instead of cutting because ice causes alot less damage in the long term but still gives her the "numb feeling". Hope I helped!


I've been running the last couple days because I want to start exercising a lot more. But when I woke up this morning, my calves were really really sore. I didn't pull anything or anything like that, they're just sore from all the running. Should I still run today or should I take a break because of the sore calves? If I should take a break on running, is there anything else I could do exercise-wise? Thanks in advance =] (link)
If I were you, I would take at least one day off from running every week. Even our cross country coach told us to. Instead, those days work on something like uppr body strength by doing crunches or push ups. Also, don't be afraid to just have a day of no excercise, everybody needs a break every now and then.


does anyone know a place that will hire 14 year olds?
(link)
Grocery stores, some toy shops, and some other fast food places do. There's also always baby sitting, pet sitting, walking dogs, helping around the house, mowing lawns (almost every guy in my grade does that), etc. Personally, I'm going to get a job at my riding stables so if you love horses, that's another place you could look into!


People are saying P!ATD live is really bad and dissapointing? Why? What's wrong with them live? (link)
I've never seen them live (though that would be awesome but I spent all my money on Tim McGraw...yes, diverse taste) but I think it is all just amatter of opinion. If you are asking because you are thinking of going to a concert, I would go because chances are you (if you are a die hard fan) will still love it.


do girls like it when you look them in the eye when you talk to them (link)
Most of the time, when a guy looks me in the eye, I melt. I love it as do most of my friends.


my cat is spaid-but he's still peeing on things-why is this? please help :(
thank you (link)
I've been there and done that. For my cat, it was a urinary track infection or something like that. We had to bring him to the vet and they gave him medicine. They alos told us it is a good idea to have ne litter box for every cat, plus an extra one. No fighting over it, so if you have more than one cat, you should get naother litter box.


why do people think the last dance at prom is special??
like to a slow song annd all..
thankss in advancee.

(link)
I'm pretty sure it is because that is pretty much the last time you are going to be with people you've been with since kindergarden, or at least at a dance. Next year, you might keep in touch with your best friends, but it won't be the same. Heck, my friends and I took the last song at our eighth grade dance wicked seriously. It marks the end of, hopefully, a great year and just a time for everyone to enjoy themselves.


Just wondering, but why does the majority of this site use horrible spelling and grammar when they ask questions? True, I understand it may be faster, but when you have a serious question such as when a friend might die, wouldn't you want others to understand what you're talking about? Also, why are there so many questions on people wanting to kill themselves, cutting themselves, and being just downers in life? Life can be so wonderful, and people make it seem so horrible when they cut themselves because their parents don't let them out past 9 or don't buy them a car, when they should feel lucky that they even have caring parents, or even food on the table. I dunno, just... why?

Thanks in advance. (link)
Honestly, the other stuff, the grammar and stuff, I love it when people use good grammar and spelling but I don't care THAT much. The other part, those people probably have depression which is a disease and sickness. It is just like saying it is not right for a person to not feel well when they have cancer or something.


Okay, I don't usually get nervous before performing on stage. I get really nervous during auditions, though and because I'm nervous I perform poorly and I don't get a callback. I hate knowing that I could do really well, but blowing it because I'm nervous. Does anyone know how I can overcome my audition nerves? I will rate high. Thanks. (link)
Ok, I admit I could repeat everything that hsa already been said if I felt that repeating it was worth it, but you van just read what they said. Take a deep breathe, practice alot, maybe even take classes on auditioning (yes, there are such things), but what I really have to say is not everyone can just go and get the leads all the time. Also, "there are no small parts, only small actors". Ever heard of Chris Evans? More known as the "fire man in Fantastic Four"? He was part of the chorus in his own mother's show before he made it big. (I know the fam.) Just remember that and hopefully it wil make you stress less and preform better!


almost a year ago i got a 3year old cot i was so happy but i was not there when my dad brought her home i came home week later to find my cat hateiing me loveing my dad i dont no wat to do because i really want her to like me any suggestions?
(link)
Cats are often one person animals, meaning they bond the best with one person in particular. It looks like your cat picked your dad but never fear, it can be cured! Just give your cat alot of attention. Learn to pick up the differences between when she wants to be cuddled and weh she wants to be left alone. Try to spend at least some time cuddling her every day. Also, try to be the one who feeds her. She will love you! And treats are good, too, just not too many or she will become spoiled!


ok i have this relly good friend who always calls herself fat, just because shes not as skinny as the anorexic girls on tv, and it relly bugs me i keep telling her that shes not fat and that i dont like it when she talks like that but she still dose. how can i talk to her and make her see shes not fat at all (link)
First of all, if it gets too serious and you suspect her not eating or throwing up what she ate get help immediately. You can tell a trusted adult who will know where to go from there. While it isn't too serious, just drop comments about her and mean them. However, if she is always getting "you are so muscular and strong" say something like "you have very pretty eyes. I was noticing the other day." Make her feel special, because chances are she is just way too self consciene, and let her know that you care about her. Another thing I thought of is instead of telling her straight out that she isn't fat, oer her yummy foods...like brownies!


What kinds of things do you do in Girl Scouts and how old do you need to be to join? (link)
You can join as early as five I believe and be a Daisy for that year. Then you move up to Brownies, Juniors, Cadets, Senior, and Adult so pretty much you can be a Girl Scout your whole life. The only requirement to do is one service project a year. Other things include meeting new people and camping. I'm in a troop and we go biking, work on our community project, and even have movie nights. One of my best friend's troops just got home from New York City and they just hang out and stuff. Oh and another thing you do is sell cookies! If you have any more specific questions, feel free to ask!


Does anyone know of any good bands/song I can put on my iPOD? I'm getting tired of all the bands I have. I'm mostly into indie/rock/acoustic/some ska/oldies.

I like Death Cab, The Postal Service, The Audition, The Higher, Panic!, Further Seems Forever, Dashboard Confessional, Hidden in Plain View, Taking Back Sunday etc. Preferably bands that you know and that aren't on the radio. (link)
I strongly suggest Six Day Slide (I am pretty much in love with them)and Brand New.


how can i get motivated to excercise on rainy days? I do not have any excersize equiptment in my house, and on sunny days i like to go for a jog, a walk, or bike ride. On rainy days however, I am either too lazy, or don't know how to excersize indoors. Any suggestions? (link)
You don't need much to excercise inside. Pick a time and stick to it. For me, it is easier in front of a TV or with music blasting. Anything so I'm not just excercising. Start with a good long stretch and then go to muscle strengthening. Do maybe 30 crunches (I have no idea have fit you are) and for push ups, do 30 at a time, then rest, then do 25, then rest for a few seconds, then do 20 and rest, 15 and rest, 10 and rest, 5 and rest, and you're done. Jumping jacks are also good to get your heart pounding, do anywhere between 50 and 100. For the main thing, you can either jog in place, run up and down your stairs, or crank up some music and dance. There are also some good videos (are cheesey as they sound) that take you step by step through arebocis or dances. Have fun!

Thanks to anyone who answers or even reads this. I'll rate you

I think I'm a pretty good person, but I still want to be better/smarter. When it comes to everyday life, dating and guys, sex, friendship, pretty much anything. Can you give me some tips
or words of wisdom or anything basic or important to keep in mind when it comes to the above listed topics. Please try ... share your experiences or knowledge. It can be anything. Thank you!
(link)
This is too general of a question but I can help by saying love yourself first. Be comfortable and confident and the rest will hoepefully come easily!


okay soon i will have to go to my moms work for a month to help her from 7am - 8pm.. everyday from monday-saturday .. i dont know what to do cause i dont want to lose any of my friends and no one likes to hang out on a saturday.. and i cant just skip a day cause my mom will FLIP.. you dont understand.. and its like a month not seeing my friends.. what can i do?! (link)
That shouldn't be a problem if they are your ture friends. Most of my best friends are away at camps all summer but we keep in touch by mail and stuff and when they come back, we have so much to catch up on that it brings us even closer together. Just try calling them when you get home and the first day you don't have to work anymore, have a huge party!


help!! it is summertime and i have NO life! the 1st semester of school last year well i moved there then got in trouble, had to come back home, and homeschooled for the last semester. i had lost touch w/ mostly everyone around my area, and the ppl i still do talk to/hang out with have their own lives! i'm pretty good at making freinds and ppl always tell me they love to hang out with me, but where do i go to make new friends?? i've tried various things/activities and it seems like i'm just SOL b/c of age ranges being completely different and stuff like that. my mom is to lazy to take me anywhere ever and my dad (who has told me approx. 5 different times i can get my license, but has made no motion to set this into act- he says he's the one who needs to take care of it.) is never home! how can i make friends? how can i keep from losing my mind!? (link)
Also, if you are still at some of your activities where there are the age differences, make friends with them anywayz! Or at least try to. Walk up to them and just start talking. Psssttt...one of my best friends is 4 years younger than me and I love her to death!
