My boyfriend and I have been dating for over a year now and I just haven't found the nickname that totally fits him....any ideas I how to come up with one that fits? (link)
| |
Name him after, well him. Think of him, does he laugh a lot, sing, whine, drink,etc. Name him after what he does a lot or likes. My friends boyfriend loves strawberrys so we call him strawberry

I think you shouldn't listen to those annoying "listen to them" crap. I actually am in that situation right now (literally I'm sitting on my bed with my mom and sister talking and saying, "why can't you be more responsible." And stuff) well first tell them off. Try not to be mean or say "shut up I'm right." And blah blah blah. Because that right there is crossing the line.
Try stating your point. Not talking back. But defending your opinion. You need to talk to them and you need to let them know that their not perfect too, they've made mistakes and you know what you did wrong (if youdid anything wrong.) if you want them to listen ask them to listen. "Mom, dad, can we talk? I want this to be a one way convosation where I talk you listen, and then once I'm finished yoy carry on."
Or write them a letter, than they won't be able to say anything to you until they see you. Last resort is going to a councilor and asking for help. Tell them that your dealing with parent trouble and they won't listen to you. You should be heard because your todays generation! Yes you should have respect for them because they brought you into this world any how but they should respect you aswell because your their daughter.
So what your supposed to be responsible! Your only 12! 7th grade! Im 13 8th and I'm not responsible. I mean why an't I have fun and do the dished only on wednsdays and tuesdays? Why can't I wait to clean my room till after I'm finished watching this show? What's wrong with eating dinner after seven?!?! Sometimes rules are meant to be broken and sometimes they're not. It's up to you to find out whether it is.
The risks are to be taken to let your parents know where you stand. Just never lose their trust.
-s.a..v
Good luck.

I have a bf who I have been with for two weeks and three days.He hurt me before we started dating.He had started dating his bff,then didn't tell me,and wouldn't talk to me at all.Then when they broke up,he asked me out,and I said yes.But he recently almost kissed another one of his bff's,because he told my friend he thought she was me.But he told me he almost kissed her because he was thinking of me.I told him I forgive him.But i can't seem to get it out of my mind.I'm scared that he'll actually kiss her next time.I really want to break up with him,but he recently told me he loves me,and that i'm the only one for him.I can tell he's telling the truth,because of the way he looks at me.He also bought me a christmas present.My bff's say I should break up with him,but if I do,I will feel really bad.
Should I break up with him?And if so,how should I do it?

Sabrina is very right! But, I actually had the almost exact same thing happen to me! So my bff (or only school bff since she was just really a friend at school.) knew this guy (herbf obvs) and were dating for 4 monthes. Supposably the week whe school started he broke up with her the third day of school and asked me out the next day. I actually saw hm that day right after he broke up with her and we talked but thta was really it. He than asked me the next day and I said yes. He was so hot and was really popualr.
He would sit right across from me in english. My bff was so mad at me and never talked to me, although we sat next to each other she moved. The guy said he loved me and the next day I broke up with him. He kept saying after he really didn't care and saying he was just dating me to make his ex mad. he wrote me a note the day before (note I did not write any note to him whatsoever before) and said I love you and all this crap about how he thinks we'll be together for a long time. I was just like whatever. So I was totally fine after. He started kissing my bff again and dated another one of my bff's but I was ok. We're like best friends now though. He's actually like an annoying brother.
I say it's up to you, but no one accidently kisses (conveniently) you bff. Who happened to date him before. And lyng is easy to pull off. Just stay calm and make this look in your eyes. If actors can do it than we can too. After practice you get good at it. And I can tell you fall for guys easily. Don't sweat over boys! You have all the time after collage to pursure wild boys. Right now us girls need to focus to get good grades.
Good luck and rememeber, Boys will always be there, your knowledge and the key to success in highschool (or middle school) won't.
(I don't know what your grade is.)

See I am currently sixteen and I have been crushing on the same guy since I was fourteen...I never made a move for him though. We are basically the opposite. He's the outgoing, fun guy while I'm the usual "cute" wallflower girl. Lately I have been more outgoing but not as far as the wild partying type. He had a crush on this girl when I was fourteen so I passed it off as a temporary crush. When my fifteen party came, I was expecting only my close friends to come - which at the time weren't many - and was surprised when I saw "him" come too. He even danced with me and apologized for stepping on my dress but I brushed it off saying that everybody had done it. After that I couldn't stop thinking about him.
Then 10th grade came and we were in the same classroom. He was closer to me than ever. We talked more, played cards and he was always making me jump and scream when he scared me. When he did a presentation, they had to pick four students to make a dinamic game and he was the first to choose - he chose me. Then my friends kept saying I was "Laura Pausini" and one day he was with us when they showed a photo of her to compare us more. He said that I was going to be very hot in the future - since she is older than me - and I sware all I did was laugh, completely embarrassed and shocked - I didn't know what to say, no boy had ever said that to me before. Then came halloween and we all dressed up real funny and eveything and see I am camera shy. He wanted to take a photo of me but I hid and didn't let him. Then we were with a group for a competition we got into. He started teaching me how to "shuffle" in the middle of the "reunion" then he got me to get on his shoes - literally while he still had them on and started movig around so it looked like we were dancing but he was the one moving. We looked kinda robotic but all I could think about was the fact that we were so close. Then I got into a salsa dance for the christmas presentation and he got in too. He couldn't get a twirl the right way so I showed him how he was supposed to do it and he said the girl that was making the dance "See? She actually has patience for me!"
There was another time in which he dropped a study guide for a test and when i gave it to him he saud i was a great woman. Remember I never took any of tiis to heart - visibly - because he always said this in a funny, joke kind of way. When we were in the competition, seated, waiting for our turn to come, I got up real quick to talk with one from our group, not looking back when I sat down. The dang boy had silently taken my seat - on purpose - and I sat on his lap, but quickly jumped and moved to the other one, startled. He and my friend started laughing at me. Then after we got into the 11th he had barely talked to me - we are in different groups now - but today during the little party the 11th grade was having my best friend accidentally elbowed me - hard - on the face. Right on my nose and mouth. I covered my face with wide eyes, staring at my friend's equally shocked face, and next thing I knew everybody was around me, asking if I was alright. Then I saw him looking at me with concern, but never talked to me dxcept when I first came in with a bag of barbecue lays and a gift for my friend. When he saw the gift he started joking and asking where was his gift. Then "demanding" that i give him the lays. Oh and in 10th grade he supposedly had a crush on someone else :/
So do you think he might like me back, or is he just being friendly. (link)

I think he does. But doesn't know it, believe he's caught in the middle. He isn't sure if YOU just like him as a friend or more. You don't have to be outgoing to get a guy you like. You can talk to him and be hard to get. When he asks for something say no. But don't be to mean, just mean enough. And know when he's serious. And when they do get mad just say, "come on don't so serious." and laugh.
You don't have to be like this all the time, but round him. He's the one you wanr, so show him! He can't read your mind unfortuntly nor can anyone else on earth. So show him and get every chance you can with him. Laugh at the jokes have fun. Think, if you two date, how woud you act around him? Like a shy girl who hates pictures and laughs at everything?
If he is in the middle, kick him over the fence not push or lure. Guys don't want what they have! Show him what he would be fighting for, show him what he would be rewarded with, show him what he will be loving.
Even if it does turn out he doesn't like you like that, know there is some guy watching you that is so terrified to talk to you because your so unbelievably beautiful! He has talked to you and has joked with you before and is probably asking these same questions as you are, except about you!
good luck and by the way, this would sound like a cute book. :)

So I've been friendly and talking to this girl. I met her like two weeks ago And like she's really nice.and shes in my class. She used to sit in the far end of the class but a week after i met her she moved to the desk next to me .i like her but idk how i should build my way up to be able to date her .so far I feel like she sees us as were good friends and I want to find a way to get her to like me . And how could i tell she feels the same or not. and also I havnt dated anyone in 2 years and I really want to try and date her because she seems like the kind of girl I want. She's perfect for me (link)

Notes. Play games like 21 questiosn or would you rather. and tell her you think shes cute. And make her laugh and stuff. My boyfriend did those things and he won me over. :) everyone likes a class clown. :)

Ok, so I wrote a song and I really want to record it and burn it onto a CD. But fist, I want to add music in it, like guitars and drums and pianos and such. I do play piano, but Im playing at a first grade levle acording to my teacher. is there and website or (free) iPhone app that will allow me to record myself singing the song, and then add backround music to it with out ever acually rounding up a band or anything? I would need it to be a simple, easy site/app though, because I am only 12 years old and im not good with electronics. Anything helps! Thank you! :) (link)
| |
Garageband :) im not sure how to save it but, you have drums, gutiars, piano, vocals, orchestra etc. works excellent :) although it 4.99 :p Its an app. Google it :)
|
Anyone tell me where i can get the string bikins she wears in the video?
Thank u so much (link)

They are probably thousands and thousands of dollars! Or it might be a custom bikini. Make your own maybe or try to find a faux version :)

Ask him. Drop hints and such. Always act flirty. And if your in 6th grade I think your a lil' young to date. At least wait till 13

Okay well first off, we aren't dating yet. We dated for a while and broke up. We worked out our differences and are almost 100% sure we are getting back together, just not yet because we wanna be friends for a little while. But we still kiss. We both have never done more than that. He wants to have sex but I don't feel like I am ready for that because of a few reasons. First off we are both 15, I am almost 16. Second, I don't want to risk getting pregnant, I have my whole life left to live! Third, we aren't dating yet, I don't want to have sex with someone unless I love them and they feel the same. I REALLY like him but idk if I love him yet. I feel like sometimes I do but I am 15 I don't know what love feels like. I feel like if I did end up having a kid, I would be able to take care of it but I don't want one now. Most of my and his friends have had sex and he feels like we are both missing out on it. But anyways my question is, what should I do? I don't think I am ready and I told him that but I feel bad because he really wants to. But that's also my choice to make, not his. Help! (link)
| |
Tell him your not ready and dont have sex until your married trust me :)
|
I've put this under mental health, because I wasn't sure what else to : please don't get offended by that.
Now, we all know that your sexuality isn't a choice. But what determines whether you are homosexual? Nature (you are born homosexual) or nurture (your surroundings) ?
I know people who say they remember being gay forever. I know of others who turn, when they go to same-sex boarding schools. I read a book about one of the most famous all-boy schools in the world. The guy was saying how they didn't know a world outside of the school, and growing up meant they had urges. Because of this, they experimented sexually, and this is where many people 'turned'.
But is it both? Is it different for different people?
I also heard that those who lack a father figure are more likely to be homosexual. This is obviously a generalization, but is there any merit to that statement?
Thanks! (link)

Nurture 100% nobodys 'born' gay! Its like are you born with a language? No. You learn it, by surroundings and such. People are stupid these days in society and think they were born gay just because they dont remember having a girlfriend or boyfriend or some stupid thing. I promise 100% that people are NOT born gay. I dont care what people say they learn it. Just like how you learn how to right an how to speak. Your not born with personality either. You gain certain personalitys from where you grow up. Like if I was born in a bad foster home I would grow up with a tough heart and it would take my soulmate to open it up and get me to love people. And with me being born in a loving family I get grounding and learn my wrong doings and I will surly grow up to be a good girl! (btw Im 13/f) This is my opinion (and fact) so just push this away if you like but, this us the truth :) have an excellent day!

i was in a 7 year relationship and got married last year.and throughout my relationship.i worked hard to get the things we have together .i worked 80 hr a week two jobs.and no days off.barely getting any sleep just to pay all the bills so she could go to collage.i helpt her get the new car she wanted,new furniture for the apartment,etc,etc,well after she graduated and got the job she wanted and everything else she said she wasnt happy anymore and told me it was over with us. i had to leave.and of course i had no place to go cause the apartment was my home.and i have no family to go to.so i was homeless.i had to go to a hotel witch is expencive.for now. till i figure out what im going to do.i was used this whole entier relationship.i dont have any extra money to get an attorney for a divorce since im not working 80 hr a week anymore.my wife switced my phone # to another phone she had cause the service was under her moms plan through verizon and now shes useing my old # for her personal use.and when people call my old #she is telling lies about me.contacting my job and anyone else she can .because i wont pay for her bills.i dont know what to do.its bad enough that she used me .but taking my phone # and lieng about me also .i just want to start over with my life but she wont let me.what am i suposed to do .im a decent good man that dont deserve this.

noooo you dont get it like he bought it for me like a yr and a half ago and gave it to me as a gift. he doesnt live with me so i dont mean can he go on my comp and check my history of whatever bc obvi he could if he lived with me. but he doesnt. so thats why im just wondering bc im like really paranoid about alot of things and this is just one of them. i mean the reason im saying this is bc if he could like read my oovoo chat with friends or personal questions i ask on here that would be embarrsing. like i dont know in my crazy mind he like planted a chip in my laptop and is spying on me...i think you misunderstood me. and plus my internet access is connected to my sisiters network could she look at my stuff? he bought me netbook and my bro a laptop i dont know if that makes a difference in anything but thanks (link)
| |
He still can see your stuff. If he gave it to you as a gift and it wasnt opened and completely oit of the box Im pretty sure he isnt able to see what you do. Like my dad he could easily go on his laptop and see what im doing right now even though hes using HIS laptop. Its technology these days. An your sister cant see it because its only the wifi your using. Unless it was the same laptop then no. They both could be able to access your history through certain plans (laptop plans sorta like phone plans) or websites. But that would take like FOREVER so 79.9 % they havent taken the time to look at your stuff. So most likely no. But if they both wanted to there could be websites and google on how to :) hope this helps!!!

I been dating this guy for 5 months and im completly in love with him!! He has been by myside trough everything when j went to a mental.hospital he was there for.me when.i was sad and.crying.he would hold me and well hes my bff and even tough we have huge problems because hes 19 & im 15 my social worker told me that if.he comes at night and.sneaks into my room he would get a restraining.order against me and i know.my parents dont like him much because they believe it was his fault & blah blah blha well the point is that we been falling apart lately so he asked me to have an open relationship meaning that he can flirt and kiss other females.. when.he.told me that my heart broke in million of pieces and i started crying like hell it hurts a lot. His reasons for asking.for.an.open.realtionship was that we couldn't see each other that much Bcuz we live 30 minutes away and im never with him when.he needs me and that there was no point of staying faithfull if.i wasnt near him.. But now.Idk what.to do?!!!!! Should i stay with him and haven an open relationship? And.wait till i get a car and wait.till its only us again? Or be done with him? Or be in an open relationship and get revenge??!! Meaning by showing.him that i can be with as.many as guys as he.can be with girls. (link)
| |
If i was in that situation I would probably dump him. Who wants a relationship with a guy free to his will to go kiss other girls! Dump and be gone with him. Find someone your own age and close by so you can have a good relationship :) hope this helps bye!!!

I have had my period since I was 13, and that same year I became a vegetarian which caused my periods to be so light that they sometimes did not come at all. After I started taking vitamins and had a bigger diet, I got it again, but they were very irregular so I was put on birth control when I was 15. This year I got my period on July 3rd, and like every other period it lasted about a week. About two weeks later I went to a party and ended up drinking. I didn't drink a lot but I drank more then a little. When I got home, I noticed that I got my period again and it lasted almost 2 weeks. When I thought it was over, I was at another party where I consumed a smaller amount of alcohol then the last time, and I woke up with my period. Is alcohol making me bleed? Should I talk to my doctor about it? HELP! (link)

[Long question, I know, but I felt I had to give you enough details to really know what I'm talking about. I'm being 100% genuine and would extremely appreciate help because I have nobody else to talk to about this and it's just.. I can't even describe how I feel]
My older sister became sick 3 years ago, with some kind of mental disorder.my family has no history of mental illness, and my sister had been fine all 16 years before. in fact, she was on the track to going towards her dream school, stanford. she always did really good at school and everything, so she wasn't dull in any way. but anyways, she started becoming more reserved (and not fun and confident like she used to be) and hearing voices and then she'd act out by running away. like it really started one day when she was out at a store with my mom and she ran away and the police had to go find her. from that day she started going to a therapist. then one day she jumped through the window on the first floor of my house, in the middle of the night, and then from that day she started going to a psychiatrist, and started getting medicine for psychotic depression and schizophrenia. so from then, it's pretty much been crazy and really stressful on my family. like she'd act out in other ways and we had to stop her from trying to run away from the house a couple of times. one time me, my mom, and my cousin had to hold her down but it's like she had so much strength like she was on adrenaline or something. it was really difficult. and then when talking to her she often didn't make sense. after the window incident she went to a mental hospital for a month, and when she got back she went in school for a little, and then had to come out again. and then my family relocated to another state, cause of my dad's job. she stayed home for the rest of the year and repeated it at a new school and graduated and did really well, despite her situation. she even got a full scholarship to a good uni nearby, and partial scholarships to even more prestigious places (wellesley and smu). she went to the one nearby cause of cost and since it was so nearby, and had to drop out after it became harder to manage her illness with her schoolwork. like the medicines she was on would make her sleep too long, or not be able to sleep, and other side effects. my sister had been put on numerous different medicines from the time this all started, but none of them worked. none of them really improved things. all they did was cause side effects, like one of them made her appetite increase a lot so she gained a lot of weight, and she was skinny before. and other things, like high school was hard cause nobody knew what she was going through and could only see that she was acting funny. sometimes i wish i could go back and punch people or something, cause they didn't know anything about her and how this isn't truly who she is and everything. but yeah. i'm glad i finally graduated this year, i hated that place in general.
but in time, my parents found out that this whole thing that happened to my sister was witchcraft. my parents are from cameroon, and a lot of our extended family is in cameroon, as well as america and a few european countries. my dad is the most succeessful person in his family, cause he worked really hard in school and got a full scholarship to a top british uni, where he got up to his PhD. (excuse me for not giving too many details, this is already really personal for me to say, I don't want to get too specific on the internet, but I will share what I think is necessary with this question). my dad's family is polygamous (a normal thing from the past. it was a necessity, cause women didn't have opportunities to get educated. and we're christians, btw), so his family is pretty big. apparently someone in his family was jealous of him, and tried to kill him through witchcraft, but it ended up affecting my sister instead. my dad's family apparently has roots in witchcraft, with his dad being a wizard as well as a couple other people in his family. i know, it sounds crazy, cause I never thought such a thing could be real, but the more I learn about this, the more I, unfortunately, have to believe. (even a really good psychriatrist my sister had agreed with such a thing, cause she said that she had never had a patient like my sister before, who didn't respond well to any medication, so what she had could have occured from other means, and not naturally). my dad isn't a wizard, though. I don't know how that works, and my dad doesn't either, since he's not involved with that sort of thing. and by the way, my dad is a very good man. I feel extremely lucky that I got someone as hardworking and sincere as my dad (I like my mom, too, but I felt I had to defend my dad here incase due to his family, you were starting to feel negatively about him). but yeah, the guy who tried to kill him is his half-brother, and apparently he was angry over something stupid. my parents give a lot of money to relatives back in cameroon who need financial help, like they're not greedy or anything. sometimes my sister and I even gave clothes that didn't fit us anymore to relatives back home. I did so about 2 months ago, actually. so, this guy that did withcraft to my family was mad cause they were building a new house on the compound like more than a decade ago, and my dad decided to pay other building people for less money than he was demanding, cause he's also a builder person (contractor? sorry I don't know the word). but just to help the guy out, my dad also assigned him a role, even though it didn't mean he had to do anything. it was just a way so he'd get some money. but apparently he had been mad over that and jealous of my dad's success, I guess? so he did this bad thing to my family and it had been like.. under wraps for a long time. I don't know how my parents became aware of it.
so with all this craziness, my mom, sister, and I even tried going to see well known "miracle" people in brazil and nigeria, last year. nothing changed. so this year, my sister dropped out of college and went to cameroon to get helped by traditional healers. in cameroon now she's off her medicine, and apparently she's improving. that's where it's at now. i hope to god that it helps her all the way and she can become mentally stable and start to put her life together again here in america. and it's just so frustrating cause I can't talk to anyone about it and it's just caused so much stress in my family, and we didn't deserve this at all, especially my sister. i just want to be able to talk to her again like normal, like it used to be. i have a younger brother and now it feels like i have to act like the older sister and it's just weird. i really miss being able to talk and joke with my sister cause she's the only person around my age who truly understands me, cause my family has moved around (in different countries) a couple times, and especially with this new move, i just feel really lonely. its scary that instead of me looking at my sister as a role model she is now looking for me to be successful. all this craziness i'm sure has affected me negatively cause shes past 2 years have just been hell and i think i've been kind of depressed myself cause of multiple factors. not anywhere like my sister had, but i've even been to 2 therapists and don't feel too different. so i guess i'm causing all the ill in my life but it's like i'm allowing myself to self destruct for some reason and i dont know why. i hope i hadn't had witchcraft inflicted on me either. but idk i'm just going to have to try to fight whatever is causing me to do this on my own.
but yeah i just needed a place to share this, and while sometimes i've doubted my christian faith, cause i'm a pretty liberal person, and a lot of other liberal people embrace atheism, but with all this evil going on, how can i not believe in good? if the devil exists, and demons, doesn't that mean god exists, too? it's frustrating cause people act like witchcraft isnt a real thing but it's like.. i'm seeing this right now with my family. if my sister is cured by the traditional doctors then that will be the ultimate proof. it's just all weird, though. i just hate that guy in my dad's family for doing that. i dont understand what makes people evil. my parents give generously to people in need, when we don't even have to. like my family even doesnt go on big vacations or w/e like a lot of other americans do, despite us being really upper middle class. i'm just frustrated right now, and idk if all this mess has had an effect on my self esteem and that's why i've been doing self destructive things. and sorry this question is all over the place, but what am I supposed to feel? what does this all mean? i'm so confused and mad and frustrated in everything (link)

Sorry it was such a long story I stopped at your sister improving and I skipped. Okay so I dont believe in witchcraft. Its not real, Im christian so God cab only do such 'magical' things. I promise its not witchcraft. As believable it may seem its just fake. Your sister may have a very rare mental issue or a NEW mental issue. Just try an pray an maybe take her to a church. Maybe shes possesed by something? Maybe bad maybe not. Im not postive but, as long as you have faith in God your fine. Im really sorry for your sister. I will pray for her & I hope she gets back to her normal self and a scholarship again. If nothing changes take her to the mental. http://www.psychiatrictimes.com/schizoaffective/content/article/10168/1596272

I really enjoyed it! :) Im 13/f an I adore reading aswell! I read about 2 pages and a half just to get the general idea of its essential contents. It was well thought out and detailed. May I ask where did you get an inpsiration to this tale? It seems more out of the heart then out of a pen. :) I'd buy it though!
