advice

I'm kind of talking to this guy friend of mine, but when we get on the phone with each other, we dont say much, and its the same thing in person. Does anyone have any good topics to talk about with each other?

Talk about a new movie that came out, a TV show that you both like, new music video or artist. Talk about the gossip in school, or about the teachers or homework in classes that you have together. talk bout the daily things that go on in your life. Thats all i can think of now Just be yourself.

if a bgoy that you are friends with likes you but you go out wihtone of his friends and he gets mad wants you to have sex with him but you say no but he tells you if he don't then he was goin to shoot you what would you do someone please help me....

If he is threatening you, just because you won't have sex with him, then he has some problems. Get away from him! Tell your consuler at school and they will probably handle it. Don't talk to him or have any contact with him at all. And don't give in to the sex thing. Just get some help from your parent, teacher or consuler.
If ya need anything, drop one in my inbox!

hey guys whats a good music download thing? besides winmx because it doesnt work for me! i get no results. does anyone know any good ones? will i get in trouble if i use kazaa? and doesn't kazaa give you loads of viruses? please help, thanks!

Hey, Ares is a great program, I did have Kazaa, but it made my computer all messed up and too many bad files. Ares is easy to download, use and you don't get viruses. You can download it at www.download.com then scroll down and go to audio & video section and look through that section and you'll see it.

okay i've had glasses for about..10/11 years and im 13 so yeah i've basically had glasses my whole entire life and im sick of it the problem is i have some thing called well idk wut its called lazy eye i believe. Yes, thats it. Anyways when i was about 4 i got surgery because my eye had slid vertically and horizontilly and now its only horizontilly and i called my eye doctor to get an app. today and they gave me an app. for January 10th @ 9:45am and i know i have to get surgery which i'm really glad and then i can get contacts which after i get contacts i'll be soo happy... lots of people think i'm pretty and i guess i am and if i get contacts with make-up and all they say i'll look prettier but most people are going to think im just gettin contacts to look prettier not everyone knows abut my disease and suggestions? or does any have a lazy eye? cuz i've always felt like im the only one

I don't have lazy eye, but i do have bad vision. That is what i thought people would say when i got my contacts. They won't though, they might ask " o you got contacts? " What your doing is for your own benefit. The only reason i got contacts was so i could see better and be more comfortable. So don't worry about it.
Hope i help!

A boy I met on a bus asked me out the day after we met. A few days later he asked me to marry him. He was saying some very inappropriate things to me (about his penis’ size). He then proceeded to break up with me saying, “I need to be with someone near me so that I can walk down the hall holding hands.” You see he lives in Vermont and I live in Massachusetts. About a month later, today, he asked me out again. He also asked me to tell my parents even though he knows that they are against me dating yet although I am 17 and in my junior year at high school. I don’t know what to do. I am so confused please help me.

He sounds a little weird. Think about it, he asks you out without even knowing you? The only reason that i see why he wants to go out with you is that he wants people to see that he has a 'girlfriend' I say cut all lines of contact with him, he sounds a little freaky to me. Get away from him. If he questions why you don't wanna talk to him, just say that its your parents fault or that you found someone in your school.
Hope I help!

I just bought sims 2 today and i was soo excited to finally get it. When i started playing it though, my computer kept freezing and moving really really slowly! I'm soo frustrated i'm ready to chuck it out the friggin window..any idea whats wrong?

Your computer may be old and can't support it. You may not have enough memory on your computer, you may need to uninstall some of the sims to play it and make it run smoother, delete unneeded files. If it still isn't working, i suggest returning it and wait till you get a more recent newer computer or newer software.

someone i know is writing really nasty things on their profiles and sending anonomous emails to me and my friends. even though they arent using names, i think they r referring to me and my friends. isnt that sick? i use to be friends w/ these people but they turned weird on me, very moody people. but it worries me that they feel such hatred, i dont think its a joke. from wat i use to know of these people, i thought there mothers would have taught them better becasue their moms were such nice people. im so worried and somewhat threatened by this im almost considering bringing it to my school and letting the guidance counsler talk to them about it. i need help, wat do u think i should do? i dont ask my other friends, because they all say the same thing, ignore it, but its a little scary. plz, help me
Angella

It depends very muhc on what they are saying, If they are saying along the lines of " i want to kill them" and is repeated over and over in detail, then maybe go to your parents and tell them. If it is along the lines of "i hate them so much, they are annoying i wish they would die" Then follow closly on it, save everything they send you for proof. But i think the best thing to do is ignore it. Think about it, these people get pleasure out of making people getting hurt or upset, thats why bullies keep on being bullies. If you have no comeback or reaction, then it will get boring to them. But if it gets more serious, tell your parents.
Hope this helps

ok, well i dont know who to turn to and my friend asked advice from u once and it worked out. SO here goes. Well u see im kinda crushing on my best guy friend. and the thing is we have a very good, open relationdship. And well he calls me up and we talk and sumtimes about this girl he likes and well me being who i am i help him out because hes a good friend of mine. When i do i feel so jealous of those skinny hoes adn i wanna tell him soo badly, because he was giving me mixed signals. but everyone says not to because of our great relationship, they say that when u breakup u become enemies. I dont think i would, but i need a second opinion. Thanks for the advice adhead of time,
Sincerly, Daniella

Well, I think that maybe you should tell him, it doesn't neccesarly(sp?) mean you have to go out, If you tell him, he might like you too, if he doesn't like you in that way, you can still be friends and maybe he will know that he shouldn't talk about those girls. I know how you feel about the skinny hoes. All guys go for them cause they are "easy" if ya get what im saying.That is what guys mainly think about ;-). Or wait a while longer to see if he gives you anymore signals.
Hope I help!

I know this sounds completely messed up, and might gross u out. but i need help. sometimes when im bored, ill just start scratching my head to the point where it bleeds and forms scabs (very little ones!) and now i cant help but pick at them and scratch them. theres no reason i do it, its just a realllllllly weird habit. i dont know whats wrong with me?! any tips on how i can make it stop?

IT sounds like you have dandruff. Get some Head and Shoulders shampoo and conditioner. That might help. TRy washing your hair at lest everyother day. Also, try cutting your nails short.

I have a (suposivly common) Problem with my ovaries in which pin head size cysts on them cause irregular periods. I havent gotten my period in nearly 6 months. I had several MRI's done, and i saw a OB/GYN. Next week, I am going to a specialist at the hospital to consult about the problem, but I'm scared that they will give me an exam, and if they do, they will find out that I am no longer a virgin like my mom thinks! I'm incredibly scared, especially because my mom would killll mee if she found out. I regularly engage in sexual intercourse, and I'm afriad that if she knows, my trust will be ruined, and all hell wil break loose. Please, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Your doctor cannot tell your mom if yoursexually active, it is against the law. they might, if you are underage, tell your mom if you are pregnant, or have a bad case of a STD or illness. CHeck out this site::

then click gynocologist (near the bottom and scroll through the listsof questions, its like the 18th one down. Look around at other questions too.

Im 14 years old and i have a lil bit of a friendship problem... okay, so I have this friend. I've known her for a really long time. We used to hang out a lot. I mean, like all the time. It was always the two of us. It was great. But then, in middle school, she made some new friends,and I was out of the picture. She never called me as much as she used to, and we didn't hang out a lot anymore. Over the summer, I called her and asked her if she wanted to do something. she said no, but maybe the next day. So, when i called her the next day, she said that she already had plans. That was the last time I heard from her a 2 month period of time. All the other times she called me, I know it was because all of her other friends were busy. I was kinda the last resort... :( .... my mom told me to find some new friends. I have but I still like being friends with her. And to this day, she still isn't the same person that i used to know. Im worried that our friendship will fall apart. Can you please help me?

*Worried*

Hey, Sorry, this took SOO long, i answered this before, but the site was changing host and the thing got deleted::
To me, it already sounds like it has fallen apart. If your so called friend is gonna use you becuase she has no one else to hang out with then you shouldn't consider you and her friends. People do change when they go through different stages of their life like going to middle school. They meet knew people and their lives aren't as sheltered as it was in elementart school. People change and that are the facts of life. If you like being friends with her, then hang out with her when your bored. If you really wanna become friends again, confront her about it and just say " what happened?" Go out and find some new friends. meet new people.
Hope this helps

I put this in Friendships because I didn't nkow where else to put this. Well, I'm a new student this year and I've made a few friends. Everyone's really nice to me and so far there hasn't been one person who dislikes me, but this one guy in my 3rd Hour class. He's part of the "popular crowd" but he just really gets on my nerves. If I just turn around to glance at something, he goes "TURN AROUND, I DONT WANT TO LOOK AT YOU!" Today, he was walking in front of my desk and he said something mean (I forgot what it was) and so naturally, I hit his arm playfully and he walked away. When he put his books on his table he walked over to me and said, "Don't touch me because you're really ugly." That one hit me really hard. I never really thought anything about my looks or stuff like that but now since I'm new to the school and he said that I'm starting to feel self conscious. The other day a girl pointed me out and said, "Isn't she so pretty?" but when he makes fun of me(which happens probably everday) I get hurt and pushed down for a while. I'm sorta friends with some of his friends but I'm not really that good enough friends to tell them to talk to him for me, especially since he's dating one of them! I'm sick of him always hurting me and always trying to push him down. I've tried telling him to stop but obviously he won't quit. I don't know what to do...

This has happened to me too, i knew this guy that was a complete and total jerk! He was so mean to everyone. When this guy says something mean just don't say anything and give him either a "wtf" look or a dirty look. If he says something mean becuase of your look, just say "shut up" and leave it at that. Don't take crap from this guy. If you argue with hime or act the same way he does, then he will keep on doing it. Don't let this guys comments bring you down. He is not worth getting upset about. i know how this feels cause a guy made fun of me because i have a disease. I didn't let it bother me and did what i told you, he left me alone.

I have 2 change schools in 2 weeks and i wont no any1 @ my new school and + ive never been 2 a public school before. What should i do?
from,
Alicia

Changing schools is a great experience, once you get through it. Just, when you sit down in class, say hi, I am ____. i'm new. Ask what there schedule is and what lunch they have. If they have the same lunch with you say, do you mind if i sit with you? I don't know anyone. They'll most likly say yes. Take your time and don't get stressed out. Say "hi" to people that are in your classes. Hope this helps

Everytime i leave my 1 year old puppy alone, like when i take my brother to work in the mornings, and there is nobody up to watch him, he always gets into things. Like this morning, he chewed my clock, and my medicine *was way out of reach* was in the floor chewed on. Thankfully he didnt get any of it though. My question is, 1. how can i stop him from chewing on things that he is not suppost to, and 2. is there other way other than locking him up in his carrier?

When My family got a puppy, what we would do was get one of those babygates, and put him in the laundry room with water, bed and toys. Before we would go out or something, we would put him in there and when we got back we took him out, that way he won't get into anything. If he does get out (maybe its a bigger dog) when you come home and he gotten into things, go in a low voice and say " oooo, bad dog, bad _name_" Don't hit, that won't help. If he's a bigger dog, you might also want to close all the doors to the rooms that have valuable or harmful stuff in it. Make sure, stuff that could be dangerous to your dogs health like glass, medicine, cleaning stuff, harmful chemicals are on a high shelf before you leave, i suggest also closing the toilet seats too. For the chewing, get some bones or dog toys.
Hope this helps

Okay my friend is kind of lets say gothic... everyone picks on him at school and sometimes they get down right cruel. He has rocks, footballs, popcans(full),anything they can find thrown at him. He is also now afraid the go to school because of everything that goes on. Well anyways I was talking to him tonight and he told me that he almost lit a house on fire and he is thinking about homicide.. to the kids that are mean to him.. should I tell someone so no one is hurt... but then wouldn't he get mad at me.. I dont want him to get sent away cuz all his mom has left is him.. but wouldnt it be wrong not to tell anyone and have someone get killed.. plz help and fast before he does anything stupid.. thanks

I think you should talk to the guidance consuler. When people get made fun of and feel liek everyone hates them and depressed, people will do anythign to break out. He probually hates everyone at his school. You don't want another Columbine situation happening.. do you? Just tell the consuler, first off by saying, my friend is getting bulllied badly and his self esteem and self importanceis down the drain, continue into that and then say that he is haveing thought about shooting up the school. They probually will tell his parents and suggest consuling or maybe get it at the school. Tell soon, he may just be a time bomb about to go off.

ok this questions are all about my birthday party they ARE seperate questions but they relate to my up coming birthday.

I think this year im going to just take a few people out to a place to eat or invite a bunch of people and tell them to bring like 20 - 30 dollers. ( its my 15th birthday btw )

1. what are some good places to go to eat ex: applebees. and that doesnt cost like 100 dollers by the time ur done eatin! but isnt like a fast food place! likk mcdonalds.

2. how many people should i invite

3. should i just go out to eat and then home and have cake or what?

thanks! and tell me if you think this is a good idea!!

So, you are going to have people pay to come to your birthday? Not a good idea, some people can't afford to pay 20-30 dollars for food, and its complicated,Or justh ave a cople close friends and go out to dinner and pay for them. what i suggest is to maybe have a get together at your house with close friends, get some easy to make food, like store brand frozen fries or make hotdogs or something. If you have a pool go in the pool. You all can hang and have cake, and a slp over. Or go to the movies, and go back to your house and have food and a slp over. It depends on your friends.

Lately I have been hanging around a new group of people and these people do drugs and they got me started on them too. and to tell ya the truth i love them. I like the feeling i get and i relly like it but i'm loseing a lot of friends because of it. I know my friends wanna help but i like the feeling. How can i not lose my friends but still do what i wanna do ?

You can't have both ways, the only reason your other friends are giving you a hard time about it is because they care about you, they don't want you to get hurt. Not having the "feeling" Is worth not having health problems or dieing. I think you should maybe get away from these new "friends" and go back to your old ones, they care.

i have these kids i babysit for, and i mean theyre okay and everything, but they dont listen!! i dont know what to do, i even take out my cell phone and pretend to call their moms! theres a 8 year old A.D.H.D. boy, a 4 year old girl, and an infant. i get paid 4$ an hour...does that seem like enough for what i have to deal with?

Well, with a kid that has adhd you might want to ask, if he could take his mediction before you come to babysit, that will calm him down. i have to deal with a 6 year old and a 4 year old, and they are very out of control, i bribe them with food, bring over some cookies or something and i put on there favortie show like spongebob or nick or disney. bring over a video or a game, that will keep them occupied.i do think, since there is an infant, that you should get paid more.
hope this helps
