I took one of my friends to play tennis and he wasnt very good. But the thing that really got to me was that he kept critizing me and telling me what a bad player I WAS!!
I told him that I was just learning to play and was taking lessons. Then he said "what kind of lessons are you taking" and that I was "holding the racket all wrong".
He also said my stamina wasnt very good. What a jerk!! I was nice enough to drive him up to the court and be patient with him even though he was terrible. I may not be a pro but I was certainly better then him.
Well I havent asked him to play since then but he has been asking me if I want to play again.. Should I tell him the truth that I just don't want to play because of how he made me feel?
He also insulted me by saying he bought his wife a tennis racket and that she is "at my level". And I know that is an insult because she isn't athletic at all.
What should I do? And do I have a right to be upset?
yes you do have a right to be mad. thing is you should let him critizis(how ever it is spelled) you, and yes tell him he isnt so hot him self, and that maybe if he took lessons then he would actually learn how to play right...sorry if it sounds a little rude but he had no right to say that to you. well hope i have helped. byebye

How do i break up with my boyfriend with our hurting him. I like him but not in a boyfriend way. there is no connection anymore. I still want to be his friend. Also he has no clue its coming.well that is what i think
thanks for the help
5's for good advice
well it's always going to hurt believe me..i have been dumped many times:(..it will always hurt but you have to tell him how you feel about your relationship and how you still want to be friends...some people are meant to be friends and nothing more and i have learned that the really hard way..but just be honest and tell him the truth and if he hates you just go on with life..he isn't the most important thing in your life . well hope i have helped

Well I'm 16/f.
Sorry this one is kind of long.
Well I really need to let go of my past but everytime something good happens I think back to how I messed it all up the last time and just get depressed. Well you see, I have quite a few guy friends who when they want to say something to me or get my attnetion they tap me on the shoulder, pat me on the head, or grab my arm loosely. I know they don't mean anything bad by it but it freaks me out since last summer at a camp I went to in Colorado I was hit on and basically molested by a guy I thought was my friend. I had to sit by him on the bus ride (which took basically a whole day) and even though I told him and begged him to stop he wouldn't stop touching me inappropriately.
Well we got off the bus and I told my friend Daniel what happened and Daniel kept the guy away from me but that wasn't the end of it. Later in the week at camp two more guys kept coming up to me and making me sit on their laps and try to give me back rubs and stuff like that. I of course protested but they were way too strong for me to get free and they would cover up my mouth if I tried to speak to someone near us. It was freaking me out. Every night when we finally had to go to bed I would sit up all night wishing that the next day would never come. I talked to my camp leader and she said she'd do all she could to keep them away from me but it never worked. So when I was supposed to be having fun at camp I was always looking around me and wondering when they would hit on me again.
My question is how can I let go of those emories so that I don't get freaked out anymore.???
this is ..you can get rid of the memories they will always haunt you..its just a part of life..but the thing is you also have to keep in you mind that not all guys are sick perves..or jerks..even though we have met our fair share they are not all that bad..just polightly tell them to get your attention in some other way..like callin you by your name..that way the memories of all the touchin wont be as strong..i really hope i have helped in a way..but its gonna be hard..good luck and i am sorry to hear that, that happend to you!

13/m, insanely long story short, we were friends, over the summer I realized I liked her, I told her because it was driving me insane, she wasn't sure in what way she liked me. In other words, she felt sorry for me and didn't want to hurt my feelings by telling me she didn't like me as more than a friend but didn't want to lie by saying she did like me. Don't give me any of that "teenagers don't know love" crap. Even if we don't, infatuation is a vital phase in our lives, eh? So anyway, after a while, I started dreaming about her---I even dreamt that I asked her out successfully one time!---and everything started reminding me of her... the usual stuff. I tried asking her out in person. Didn't work. So I was over her for about 3 days. Then everything reminded me of her---even more!!! When school started, we found things too awkward to talk to each other. It was just... weird. Things have started getting better though. But it was weird for about a month or two. The only way we talked was over AIM.
Then last week I started playing guitar, using my dad's old electric one and one of his acoustics, depending on which one my sister (she was also trying to learn) was using. So I was IMing her (she plays acoustic) and then I said that I was trying to learn guitar, and that my next attempt to play a piece was Another One Bites The Dust. Her response? "thats totally hott!!!" So that was pretty cool. Then the next day I walked into school and she stopped me right in front of the science room. She had dreamt about me. Apparently, I started rocking on the electric guitar, and then she joined in on acoustic, and it was cool, and then we went to the moon. She's a spaz.
But anyway, does she finally like me? Everyone said she liked me last year. My friends, my family, they were all saying it. But we were both in denial. Like one time my best friend came up to us and said, "You know, *her name*, you look like *my name*'s boyfriend!" We both dismissed that thought and walked away. But she was like flirting with me all year. And as the class loser/nerd, I'm blind to anyone dropping hints or flirting with me.
Yesterday I IMed one of her best friends and asked if she had liked me last year. ("She" being the person I liked, not her best friend.) She logged out. Does that mean something? Or did she honestly not know?
Last night I dreamt that the friend IMed me back and sent me the URL of a blog about me. It was all about how much she liked me last year. It was really sweet! And then in science class that day someone put the Spamalot soundtrack into a CD player and the only 2 people who knew the words were her and me. So we did a duet of The Song That Goes Like This. It was cool.
So obviously she's taken over my life, if I honestly call this a "long story short" which it honestly is, surprisingly. I can't stop thinking about her. Everything reminds me of her. Roller coasters? We went to a carnival together. Egypt? She hugged me on the day I made a presentation on Egypt. The game Batik? It sounds like a Greek-ish name, she's from Greece. Obviously I'm obsessed. Is there any way to stop that apart from finding someone else? Because right now I've kinda got my mind set on her...
A few more questions. Does she like me? How can I find out? I think I had a few more but I forget what they are...
A few things not to say:
-There are other fish in the sea. I'm not really looking for others, first I have to either get her to like me or to get over her. Take life one step at a time.
-You could probably pick up any girl! Not really, most girls hate me, whether it's because I'm really nerdy, I'm a loser, I talk too much, or I don't really care about my looks and thus aren't hot.
-You've got the rest of your life to live! Well, yes, but first, I have to reach the rest of my life outside an insane asylum!
Yeah... I'm sorry, when I get started on her I just keep going and going and going... sorry... I should probably shut up now. Oh, and any responses violating the ToS will be reported without hesitation. That includes unhelpful advice. Thank you so much, you don't know how much this means to me!!!
P.S. For what it's worth, she's hugged me three times... every time I've rejected it for some unknown reason... like if you've ever read Flowers for Algernon, you know how whenever he got too close to Alice Kinnian he got scared and couldn't go through with it for some unknown reason? Yeah, it's like that. I'm still partially child and I guess half my mind is ready for this and half my mind is still saying that "girl are icky" or something like that....
first of all i know how you feel i feel almost the same towards a best friend of mine..thing is i just recently found he deffinetly doesn't like me..bummer..but i think the best way to find out if she likes you is to ask...thats somewhat how i found out...but girls hugging a flirting can be a good sign...but i think it would just be best to ask....and i know it will be hard and really really hard but just try to think of other things besides her...and i mean it will deffinetly be hard, and yes sometimes it will seem awkward...i am going through basically same thing...just mine ended sorta harsh..he told me to drop it..hope i have helped

ok well I have been talking to myslef since I was about 6 or 7 and I seriously feel like I'm talking to someone else. I ask myself questions and then give myself an answer all out loud. When I think these I can't come to a solution, but when I talk to myself out loud I feel like another person is talking to me. I find myself looking in magazines and saying out loud and pointing as if I'm giving another person a visual "I'm her."(on that I also find myself choosing who I am in a movie show anything even books... what could that mean) And then I sit in my room and I act out diffent things talking to myself and then talking as if I'm another person and I can get so into it that I get angry or upset I can even cry example: (I have done this) i say "I love you so much" then "I don't know if this will last so let's not kid ourselves and continue with this" then my throat starts to close up and I get so into i say more and more and start feeling the emotions one would feel if this were actaully happening and then I just keep on talking to myself. Is this normal? If not what is it? I'm 13
you i talk to my self about talkin to my self about talking to myself all out loud kinda fun isnt it..but kinda creepy same time..but it is normal..alot of people talk to themselves...hope i have helped ttyl byebye

How can you tell if a girl likes you{dont say flirting}? How can you tell if a girl knows that you like her? Does anyone know any advice on girls that is hard to learn on your own or that no onr told you and you figured out yourself.
Thanks in advance.
I rate high.
--Caden--
well personally me being a girl and all...i tell my friends usually who i like but i also tell the person , or i go red if i talk to them..if i like a guy alot i usually tried to be around them alot or touch their arms or back anywhere...see i wouldnt always say flirting cause alot of girls flirt to have fun and doesnt nessisarily mean they like you...but like smiling and stuff like that...a girl will think you like her if like you are always like smiling at her, or being really cute/sweet...well..advice on girls really depends on what kind of girl she is..but alot of girls like to know that they are loved or that someone cares, likes to feel special, some girls like sweet guys...but like i said all depends on what type the girl is...well hoped i have helped...have fun...and good luck with everything..byebye

There is this kid at my school who annoys me and I can hardly focus on my work in the classes we have in common. I told the adults about the sitiuation and they said I had to deal with it.
Im usualy a calm person but sometimes I get pissed. Can any1 help? fives go out to the best answers.Oh, and by the way, he's still 12.
it doesnt matter his age he is a bully and the teachers should help..teachers are always usually insiting that the kids should tell them about the bully's..so thats not fair, i know how ur feeling ppl pick on me all the time, i am guesing nobody is really afraid of you are they, well i was gonna say you could like stand up fro your self and yell at him..but i dont think the class would like to hear, ummm but just ignore him the best you can or even start to annoy him:) sorry i know not the best thing to do..but just try...good luck and hope i have somewhats helped

at my school im not socially accepted and i dont no why this is my second year here and im not trying to be cocky but im really pretty, and im nice, but im not socially accepted for some reason. ps i go to a private school. But anyway my ex-best frieend goes to the same school i do and she thinks shes miss all taht or w.e and there are about 16/40 kids in my calss that i get along fine with its jsut the people who don't like me always hang out with those people i get along with. there is this one person who always picks on me saying that im annoying when to tell you the truth im really not. I have had a really hard life so far, and i don't want to see a therapist or anything, but today after school i was crying because im not socailly accepted and i really like the school and all, but some of the kids there are so mean to me. also does neone know some good combacks/stand up for yourself or nething
ps i would switch schools but i cant
ps there are only 2 other schools around me (one is a sorta druggie school, the other school i dont no)
ps what should i say to the person who keeps on saying omg your annoying get the hell out of here, etc
please help me i willl rate
please answer all my questions thats in my story and the ps ones
well i would suggest the you kinda try and make more friends, but the thing is some of the prettier girls give off a vibe, its a i am too good for everyone or a i am too pretty type of vibe and nobody really likes it, b/c they are jealous but still. just calm down with the i am pretty and stuff..and you know going to a cousellor or theripist isnt really bad its actually a good thing they will help you get over the tough times.. sorry bout the spelling. and good luck ,and to the person is pickin on you seriously just stick up for your self, if they call you annoying just be like i may be annoying but at least i have good looks, or sumthin like ..use your advanteges to their diadvanages, i know makin fun of them doesnt really help, either do that or just ignor.i would suggest the just ignore, it what i do...good luck

How can i lose weight?!i am 13 female and i weight around 154 pounds!! thats about 50 pounds more than what i want to weigh. any suggestions about how i can diet and exercise to lose like stomach fat or leg fat. how can i eat a better diet? i need to lose weight because i get picked on at school a lot and i dont want that to happen anymore. Please help me out!!!
You know i am 15 170-180 pounds..people always make fun of me cause they think i am fat..but you know i am not..it depends on how our bodys are made, there are somewomen who arnt meant to me skinny, but you can eat 3 meals a day, breakfast lunch and supper, and just like for leg fat, start going for long walks either after school or on weekends or both, and for the tummy do like 20 sit ups after school everyday and eventually you will gain more muscle and lose some of the fat that you want gone believe me it worked somewut for me..my leg fat turned to muscle, and i am still workin on my tummy, yet again i dont do the sit ups..but they worked for a friend of mine soo..wellz good luck..and just dont think about what they say to you, be happy with yourself..byebye

Well, here's the story. I'm 14 Female. My friend moved to my town a couple years ago. She visits her old town often, so she brought me with her one time in the summer. It was REALLY fun, we hung out at her old friend's house. And this kid was there. All of us hung out all day. I like the kid that was there, and I have liked him since that night. We talk online every once in a while, and I've talked to him on the phone a few times. It seemed like he liked me from the way we talk to eachother, but I don't know. That was in the summer, and it's October! He lives about 45 minutes away, which is not too bad. I REALLY like him, but I don't know what to do. My friend says it totally sounds like he likes me, but nothing's happening. Also, like, if he asked me out or something, do you think it would work? (him living 45 minutes away?) It would be far to drive just to hang out. I don't know exactly what I'm asking, but if you have any advice, it would be great?
Well if you really like him alot just ask him if he likes you or if he would like the friendship too move forward...and ya 45 mins isnt sooo bad..but dont ya think you guys should talk more than a couple times if your really thinking you like this guy i think it would work but you two need to talk more...and maybe set up some weekends so that you two can hang out and stuff:) well good luck and hope i helped

Ok, I love this girl.
Anyways, I love her so much and well she used to like me as more than a friend, but something happened to me and well we got into fights and stuff. So now she dosen't like me. She knows I like her.. but she just dosen't understand how much.. almost every night i cry myself to sleep over her.. she has a boyfriend or i would be telling this to her. Anyways i found out tonight she has been avoiding me and when i talk to her online that she has been ignoreing me making me think she is away. And it made me think, I may love her so much.. and since she dosen't like me any more maybe she dosen't want to be my friend anymore.. i don't know what to do. She has changed my life in so many ways, saved my life even. *sigh* i just don't know what to do any more. And i'm afraid of what will happen if she wants to part ways and never talk again, because honestly i'd probably kill myself. She just dosen't understand how much she means to me. If you could please just give me some advice on what to do here i would be very greatful.
F.Y.I We live 40 min. away from eachother, we have met once before but only for about 30 secconds, i went and seen her in a play for her Theatre club at school and she had to go change into her normal clothes and then leave. I'd do anything for her.. please help
First off...please never think about suicide..please please..its not good..and it makes me sad to hear about people wanting to end their life over some one...if i can live my life with my folks i think you can live with out the girl..but i am not sayin give up hope cuz thats one thing i dont like too hear ...i am just sayin whatever has happend between you guys..must be sumthing...call her up or email her and stuff and just ask her what went wrong....and say no matter wut you will always be there for her...i do understand how you're feeling towards her right now..but she isnt worth your life...maybe you just stay as a friends right now because you never know she could change her mind...well hope i help a bit
