I am in my final semester of graduate school. I have an undergraduate degree in psychology, and will start as a Specialist in School Psychology in the next academic year (Aug 04).
A School Psychologist is not a Guidance Counselor - it is someone who works with teachers and students to evaluate for special needs (gifted or special ed), talk to students about difficulties at school, and work with teachers to make their classrooms better.
I have been doing freelance computer consulting work since 2000.

This is a pretty common reaction from a guy who isn't interested. Sometimes guys get scared or nervous when a girl that they see as only a friend wants more than that. The reaction sometimes is unpleasant, such as when you say "he hates me and we all used to be friends".
What can you do? First, don't worry about him. He was surprised that you liked him, and doesn't know of any better way to handle it except to be mean to you. So, just talk to your other friends in the class, if you make I contact, just say "hey", and then talk to someone else as if it's no big deal. Soon he'll realize it isn't a big deal too, and things will calm down a bit.

I am a 29 year old married woman with three kids. I just found out that I am pregnant and my husband and I have agreed that I would have an abortion because we couldn't afford to have another child. We are already struggling to raise our three kids. I am so confused and depressed right now. I am scheduled to have my abortion next week though. If I continue with this pregnancy that means I would have to stop working and money is really tight right now. We are actually living pay check to pay check right now. The other side of me wanted to continue having this child. And it really hurts me so that I have to do this. My family and his family would be so dissappointed if they learned I'm preganant and I doubt that they would be willing to help. If you were in my shoes, would you do the same thing? Am I wrong in doing this? (link)

You don't say how far along you are, but obviously not very far. You say that you and your husband have agreed to an abortion, but yet you don't seem to be too agreeable to the idea.
Financial concerns aside, you should NOT have an abortion next week if you do not feel that your mind is clear that this is something you want. To have an abortion even after firmly deciding it's what you want can still be (and likely will be) a very emotional event. If you are feeling depressed and confused, then you are not ready to make such a decision. The fact that you say "the other side of me wanted to continue having this child" is proof that you really would keep this baby if finances were not so tight.
I know it's easy for people to say "Just do it" or "don't do it", but situations never fall into those easy black and white categories; your situation is no exception. I'm sure you have thought of every possible way to financially support an additional child, but just don't see it happening. But, is having the abortion justified because of your financial difficulties? That's for you to figure out, and I don't think you have yet.
Please, please, call the clinic that you have scheduled this abortion with, and schedule a time to talk to one of their counselors. This is provided for free, and can be someone that you can at least express your concerns to and is more real than people answering an advice site.

My period is a few days later than usual...and no I know what you're thinking...Im a virgin so I'm NOT pregnant...I'm just nervous because Ive been sick and I don't know if that has to do with the fact that I am sick...or if its just normal because I'm kind of new to this....please help! (link)

Since you say you are fairly new to this, then you are probably getting worked up about nothing. You being sick could certainly affect it being late. Also, it takes a little while to get into a full and predictable schedule, so being a few days off here and there is not unusual.
If you are concerned, or if it doesn't come in a couple of days, let your mother know your concerns.

hey. well, to get right to it, there's this guy i fell in love with. he's a senior, and i'm a freshman, but i still love him more than life itself. but there are so many problems....he is my 19th cousin...do u think that's bad? then there's his "new" girlfriend. and the fact that he loves his 3rd cousin, which is worse than me. but the real problem is he is a vampire. i'm serious. he sucks his blood and everything! he's even tried to kill me a number of times. but i still fell in love with him somehow. but the day i found out he had a girlfriend, i slit my wrist 23 times. i've been doing it every night for almost a month now because of him. now, i'm not pretty or skinny, so it's not like i have another guy to like instead. do you have any advice? and then...there's my second problem. i'm 14, and there's this really nice, really sweet 22 year old who loves me. and i have no clue what to do. he's a minister, but he has a bad past and reputation. some of my friends are afraid that he'll rape me or something like that. but i like him alot. what should i do? cuz it's kinda illegal.......well, thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Bye (link)

I truly feel for you in this situation.
It seems that you are a much more mature 14 year old than those around you. Which is why you probably don't "like" any of the guys your age. They still have a lot of growing up to do, and you are ready for someone who you can relate to.
Unfortunately, you are looking in the wrong places. You are looking for a guy who can shelter you from all the wrongs in your life - someone who you can get advice from and who can help you through your struggles. That's all fine and good - but you must seperate a helpful, caring relationship from romantic feelings.
It's ok to have those feelings, and they are very real. I'm sure it's quite hard and heartbreaking when you cannot have these guys that you so desperately care for. You should share these feelings and struggles with someone you trust, who can support you through these difficult times.
But inflicting pain on yourself, while it may temporarily take the focus off your problems, will not make them go away. The only way to make them go away is to face them and work through them.
