Q: is it true that the average joe only uses about 10 percent of their brain and that people like psychics or w/e have learned to "tune in" to the other part of their brain and thats how they "see" stuff?
yeah. people are pretty stupid. lol. and also im not sure that psychics do that, but we humans only use about 10 %. thats right. but i guess psycics do that. ive never heard that. but it makes sence. hope i kinda helped. : )

Q: hey theres this boy and he is 2 grades higher than me and hes really sweet and smart,cute,and funny. Should I ask him out? Please help from thinker101.
i dont think that girls should ask guys out. keep talking and flirting and being all sweet then wait for him to ask you out. then say yes. cus he might not like you that way. and if you ask him out, he might think your desperate. im not saying you are, im just saying. also, it depends on if you are in 2 different schools. that wouldnt be so good. but the same school, youll see eachother more often. i hope i helped!

Q: What does it mean to get your hair "blown out"
at a salon?
well, if you have crurly hair, getting it blown out is getting it blowed straight. also, getting it blown out if you have frizzy or african american hair then it is making it straigh and silky. if you have ever seen the movie beauty shop with queen latifa, it has one girl get her hair blown out and they talk about it for a little while. also, just a blow dry. hope i helped!

Q: ok i was goin out wit this guy(mark), but then i started talkin to another guy(jake)who livs in another town, and he told me he liked me alot. i kept tellin him that i really like marc, but i ende up dumping marc so i could be with jake. so i hung out with jake a few times, and he was like kissing me and holdin me and holding my hand and stuff like that. i really thought he was gonna ask me out but he didnt. so iv been talkin to him online, and i kinda thought he was just using me, so i asked him and he sed that he liked a girl from his town befor i came but he likes me too. then his friend told me that jake was just using me and he was planning on goin ut with that girl from his town. jake still talks to me though and idk if wat his friend sed was true becuz his freind likes me also. so yaa should i just giv up on jake? was he just using me? wat should i do??
i think that he is using you because he doesnt like only you. you arent the only one for him. i think you should have stayed with mark. also, just cus his friend told you that he used you might just be cus he likes you or it could be that he likes you and his friend was using you and he doesnt want to see you hurt. i hope i helped.

Q: for the longest time i've had a crush on my cousin. his family and mine have been very close. and really, thats strange, because i have like 92 cousins on my dad's side of the family (his side). we're like brother and sister, because we've been tight since we used the playpen. i've told my sister like, 2 yrs ago, that i had a crush on him. she swore to secrecy that she wouldn't tell. but she did the last time he was over. (2 weeks ago). during and after the time my sister opened her blab of a mouth, he's been secretly avoiding me. we just got a new pool and i was swimming in it, and i asked him to come in, he wouldn't. but when my dad came home like 10 min. later, he went in. he had claimed the water was cold, but it didn't get any warmer when he went in with my dad. i'm not really an outgoing person, and i easily go with the flow. i don't want to ruin any friendship we've had for the past 14 yrs, because out of all the 92 cousins i have on my dad's side of the family, he's the only one my age. the rest are like 20, or 5. plz help me with my problem!
hey. im sorry she opened her mouth. i think that was wrong, but i also think that he needed to know. so that you could see that he doesnt feel the same. i think that it is a little bit odd, but i think its because you arent an outgoing person that you like him. hes always there and you dont have trouble talking cus you have always been together. i think you need to join some clubs or something just to get yourself more social. i think that you would find that you may like another guy that isnt realated. im sorry tha tyou got embarassed, but just tell him that your sorry and that you were just a kid when you felt that way and youve moved on and you hope he can and will too. hope i helped. thanks for asking!

Q: can you admire a person and like them at the same time?For instance, my sis's friend told my sis that she admired me,does that mean that she likes me as well?

And is there a difference from liking someone to loving someone?
if the person doesnt really know you, they just admire you for what youve done or want to do. but if they know you, if could be the same thing or they could like you cus of it. it all depends on how well yall know eachother. hope i helped!

Q: so my boyfriend of 2 years broke up w/ me about 2 & a half months ago & I am still upset about it. Some days I hate him & other days I miss him & want him back. When he broke up w/ me he said @ first it was because I was possessive and then he told me he just wanted to be single for awhile. Well two weeks later he starts dating a girl who is 15 (he is 17) & she lives 3 hours away. And they only had met once before they started dating. I don't know what to do anymore. Ive been depressed for awhile & it feels like I will never get over it. Then school is going to start in less then a month and Im really scared to see him because I haven't seen him all summer and I loved it but Im afraid when I see him @ school Im going to get upset and the progress I had made will be gone. Do you think that his relationship is just a rebound? And he will ever call me again to apologize? I just want some answers but I dont want to talk to him until they break up. What should I do? I dont think I wuold take him back but as selfish as this is I would just like him to say he made a mistake and want me back so I can say no, you missed your chance.

i think that you should want him back just to say no. show him what he could have had. but get back on the market. if he sees that you still arent dating when school starts, hell think he has power. this happened to my sister and he asked her back out and she said yes. he kept breaking up for other then coming back. stay strong and show him that youve moved on, even if you havent quite. and i also think that he will call you to appologize if you look like your having more fun then you ever did with him. hell see that he made a mistake and want you back, but whatever you do DONT TAKE HIM BACK!! hope i helped!

Q: i'm 5'6 and 17 a male.DO you guys have any suggestions on how to grow taller? exercises? food? and what age do guys stop growing?
no certain foods or anything make you grow, or stop growing. my brother stopped growing at age 21, but my friends brother stopped at age 17 so i guess it depends on how old you were when you started growing a lot. it also depends on your family. if they are typically tall, then you may still grow. if you are adopted and dont know your parents, then im not sure... i dont think you are. hope i helped!

Q: well im a girl and im 15 so here it goes...to make this as brief as possible, i hate my bestfriends boyfriend...ive been pretending that i like him and pretending that it doesnt kill me to see them together for the past 3 months because i know he makes her happy and i want to see her happy...im sick of people telling me to just deal with it because shes my bestfriend and what makes her happy should make me happy, but it doesnt...i cant keep pretending i like him, ive talked to her about it a little but i feel bad and selfish everytime i tell her i dont like him...so i dont know if there is anything left to do, if so i could use some advice
hang out with her and if she wants him to come along, say you have to do some chores around the house. invite her to places jsut the two of you. if she asks if he can come, just say its a girls night. if she talks about him, change the subject by asking if shes thirsty.

Q: sorry this is long...

I love my boyfriend, i really do and we have a great relationship but im still very good friends with my ex. me and my ex have been together 4 other times and whenever we are together we flirt like crazy and he always tries
to put hims arms around me, or find a way to be close to me. I feel guilty because i love my boyfriend so much, but i feel like i have little "feelings" for my ex. I wouldnt leave my boyfriend for my ex, because my boyfriend and i have to much and hes an amazing guy, but i have dreams about my ex and think about him alot. whats my problem? i also always wanna just kiss him and have him hold me and be with me. i feel soo bad! what am i sopose to do. i tried to talk to my boyfriend, but that doesnt go well AT ALL. what should i do?!?!? thanks in advance
it is just normal that you want to flirt. if someone flirts, then it is natural to flirt back. the dreams i dont know about, but they are jsut dreams. they almost never make sence. just remindyourslef of your boyfriend, or jsut dont be alone with whats his name. ok? hope i helped!

Q: I like this guy, hes not that popular and i know people will think i was crazy if they found out i liked him! I dont know if he likes me or knows i like him. I always drop hints and stuff and he is like one of my good friends. Everytime we talk about who each other likes he says he dosent know who he likes and i say i cant tell him . I dont want to make things akward between us if i do tell him. I am really confused and i cant take it anymore.!
I think that you should just stay friends because it would probably end up being extremely aquward... lol and if you think that you should tell him, then do it in person and not with others around. in person is the key thing tho. also, if he doesnt say that he likes you back then just be like . oh thats cool. then change the subject. i truely hope i helped!

[[ps i think that he lkes you too if he wont tell you who he does.]]

Q: I was in a long distance relationship with a guy for 8 months. I met him at a summer camp 2 summers ago and we started dating in July. We saw each other 2 times during our relationship, then I surprised him once and visited his church this past summer after we broke up in April. He was my first kiss and my first love. I've had a boyfriend since we broke up, because I thought I was over him. He's one of my best friends and we still talk all of the time. I got over him because I didn't think he loved me anymore. He broke up with me because the distance was hard on him. He's more than worth the distance to me. After me and my last boyfriend broke up, we started talking a lot more cause we didn't talk so much while I was in a new relationship. I talked to him last night and my sister asked him if he liked me. He said yes, but that we couldn't do anything about it because I live here and he lives there. I understand where he's coming from, but I might see him about 2 times before the end of the school year and then again for a full week because of summer camp. Because we still like each other, when we see each other, I still want to be together. I'm still in love with him. I guess I should tell him, but what would you do? I have an idea, but I want other peoples' opinions.
stay freidns, and not together becuase you could never no what happens in other places. at camp, get back togther! i thik you should tell him you love him also. im turnin in for the nght but feedback soon!

Q: Ugh, my huge winter dance is in a few weeks (about 3) and I asked this kid i dont know too well but i mean i talk to him everyday jus sayin Hi or somethin. well, I asked him at 10:57 and then he didnt answer. then at 11:23 i asked if he was there nd he didnt answer (this is all online) then an hour later i saw he went away and then came back. so i IMed him nd asked if he saw what i said. here was the convo when he came back

him: yeah but im leavin soon im readin some stuff on a few sites then goin upstairs what ya need ?

me: did you see what i asked you earlier?

him: yes

me: and .. lol

him: .... ill get bac to u

he's probably goin to make me wait a really long time and i really need to find a date fast because tickets go on sale until wednesday. then they are unavaliable. i dont want him to keep me waiting to the point that i wont find a date. what do i do? do i tell him i dont want to go with him any more( thats weird). do i wait it out? what do i do?!?
hard to break it to you but the ... means probably, no thanks. find someone else and if all else fails, find your best guy friend that you knwo wont turn you down! HIH


Micki

p.s. if yoru best guy freidns have dates, find just some gf and go in a group!

p.s.s just say, nevermind, you found another date or if you find that mean, then tell your firends that if your date says yes, then you will go with them, ask if they dont mind being a backup plan. dont worry, they wont!

Q: hey,
i was wondering if there was any way to shape your eyebrows to make your eyes appear wider apart.
I thought that if your eyebrows werent so close together it would appear that your eyes werent so close together.
I dont want to go wrong so any tips would be useful, i dont know if you can put pics on but they would be helpful too...
thankx a lot
xxx
you could pluck/wax your eyebrows farther apart.




Q: I don't think I have an eating disorder but some people say I am on my way onto being annorexic. I mean I am 93lbs and 15 years old. I am always watching my weight making sure I am not over 95lbs. I know it may sound crazy but I don't know.. if I get at 95 or above not usually to 98 though I quit eating till I am back to 93lbs. I don't know why I do this but it is just how I am. I do not eat Breakfast or Lunch but always Supper. So please help me and give me some reasonable advice other than "you need to eat breakfast and lunch cuz its not healty" cuz that is all people seem to say, I mean my boyfriend is worried but to me this is the only way to control MY life.
i think that you should try to gain wait stead of loose. the way to see if you are "fat" is go to www.am-i-fat.com

also, to try to controll you life try some extra activities. that should help. i dont mean to gain on fats, but try some helthy foods for lunch. do NOT one day just start eating luch and breakfast because that is not your normal habits and you will jsut throw it back up becaus your body is not used to it. please if this gets worse, talk to someone who specializes.

love always
