Hey ya'll its "Maggie's Advice" (trying this whole advice-giving thing out) so leave me a message and let me do my job

advice

Okay, well i have been hanging out with this 18 yearold for about 5 months and im only 15! This guy is not known for like the best reputation, and my friends hate him and really do not know i hang out with him. What do you think i should do? Is 18 way to old?

Well it depends what you're doing with this guy. So basically nobody knows you're hanging out with him even your parents? (parents don't need to know everything..) 18 is fine for hanging out but soon he's going to get to old and it'll be illegal if he dates you. Since he's known for his not so good reputation I'd just watch out but if you hang with this guy, there must be something good about him. Let only your best friends who understand you the most know about your older friend. You should let somebody know so you won't always be doubting yourself if you should be hanging with him. Try to show them what you like about "the elder" but if they won't agree at all then just go with what you feel is right. good luck!

no one will believe that my relationship with my b/f isn't bad and that he loves me! Everyone says b/c he goes to a different school he is cheatin on me and im paranoid as it is b/c ive been hurt enough times.its startin to get to me and i feel bad how do i make them shut up or make them believe he loves me!oh im a girl and im 15...lol

I hear ya! Just because you're going out with someone doesn't mean ya'll are "bad". I mean maybe they think that because you don't get to see him often so when he's around you act differently. I mean it's all normal. There are couples who are a lot worse... Ok about the cheating part, I'm not sure what to tell you. You either trust this guy or you don't. I would have a friend go undercover and find out if theres another girl or make friends with someone at his school to find out. I doubt he is but you could always make him put I love "so and so" - whoever this is - on his profile so if there was another girl, she'd see it. Hope you have the best of luck!

hey... my boyfriend and i just had a big talk and he wants to be in "time-out"
i have no clue what that means just that theres no kissing at school (so he said). now i dont know how to act around him or what to say to him
My questions are ... what do you think time-out is and how should i act around him at school???... im so confused and lost in all of this

Ok well what I would do first is confont him about this "time-out" thing and ask him what in the heck does that mean. You got the no kissing part but is there more? If ya'll wern't kissing much before and now you are, maybe he's just not ready for it (highly doubt it though). Another thing is maybe he's cheating on you. I mean I usually don't wanna resort to that but he's asking you to not show any means of affection at school... maybe because they'res a girl at school that u don't know about. keep ur eye out. Basically just act like good friends when you're with him and if he still complains then i'd kick him out. He just needs to think about the relationship but if you don't wanna wait for him or don't trust him I would dump him. Good luck with it! tell me how it goes

theres this guy at school that all my friends are friends with, but i havent really liked him from the start... maybe its b/c i hear all these bad things he says behind one of my best friends back... anyways what should i do...
i've tried being nice to him and talking to him more but, he just obviously doesn't like me eigher...if i could learn to be friends with him... that would be great, but he doesn't really want to be... or at least thats what i heard from one of my friends
One more thing... should i try to forget all of these mean things that he has said behind my friends back??
-confused

So basically you'Re saying he doesn't want anything to do with you? Well that's his decision, and I suppose you just have to come to teRms with that. It seems like you've done all you could. Don't woRRy about getting him to like you; it seems like you've tRied to bRidge the gap, but he just Refuses. I say just give it a Rest and don't conceRn youRself anymoRe. If he's Really that good of fRiends with youR fRiend, peRhaps he'll change his opinion of you, oR at least tReat you with Respect in the company of youR mutual fRiend. Hey, if you don't like him you just don't. Some people just Rub each otheR the wRong way. Just be polite when you see him, but you don't have to be fRiends just because everyone else is. :)

so there is this girl that im goin out with her and i lover her alot and there is this other girl that likes me too. she acts like she doesnt but i know she does, how do i let her know that there could never be anyhting between me and her(not the gf)???
--ps--
this may or may not be who ur thinkin. lol

Well I would just make sure not to show any signs that might make her think you like her such as:
text messaging her
calling her
waiting for her at her loccer
chasing after her
etc - those are just "random" examples
Best of luck i'd say

pure blonde, bleache blonde ish, no change, straight, curly, bangs

Well if you're asking which will look best on you then I would have to say i have no idea because i don't know who sent this. I would personally go with pure blonde (not like white or anything more like a light sandy blonde) and so far whats in style is bangs (long ones on the side) and wavy ish like that girl on friends(can't remember her name sry). but i really never experiement with hair so i dunno what looks good and what looks bad. be brave and try somethin different i'd have to say

so i have a couple questions this time some more serious than others

1)my girlfriend is just a tad short if i was goin to kiss her what should i do?? squat or pick her up?? need answer!!

2)so my girlfriend has had this one guy as her old boyfriend and it didnt last too long and she says she kissed him like all the time? do you think she is lying or telling the truth

3) my last question
is she said she kissed him. do you think she kissed him?? and do you think she ever made out with him??

-ps- i dont mind what she did with him because that makes her all the more better so means more fun since shes already kissed before.

Well, I asked "the girl" for her answers for your many questions and here they are:

1) Lol well i guess you're going to have to manoover yourself in a position where you're lower than me. good luck with that but you usually do it in the past really well. or maybe i was the one making sure i was taller...
2) is this one of those "i don't believe you" things again lol. i so did not say i kissed him all the time. it must have been leslie or something because she's the only one who actually has proof
3) one more sucker to go. Yes, I did kiss him more than once :0 but I deffinently didn't make the first move. And no i didn't make out with him... eww not with him

[view]

so i was wonderin what would be the best place to make out with someone or kiss someone ???
keep in mind that i really love this girl and i hope that nothing will go wrong. considering that the girl gets awkard when the time comes around. help me quick cuz its about time, like tomaro at lunch or im goin to die.!!!

ok well pretend I was the girl. If you were wanting to kiss me, I would want you to do it somewhere where i wasn't expecting it to happen. the less i kno about it the less nervous i would get - this just may be me only though. since i'm um not the girl.. i'd suggest doing it where ever the girl feels comfortable and hopefully that will lessen the awquardness at least by a little. also make sure you do the first kiss quick so ya'll don't procrastinate. then after that... enjoy *and hopefully the girl will too but i have a feeling she will

I love to hovel. Everyone hovels they just might not realize it. Its lovely to hovel. Its so fun. Some just aren't sunburned with the feeling of hoveling, how should I show them how to begin the best days of their hoveling lifes????

Well you could either convince them how cool it is but that might take a while. or *my personal favorite* is to force them to like hoveling. you can either do that by making them do it themselves or you could just ignore them until they decide to join u in your awesome hoveling experience. o and if you're talking about me in this hoveling question don't do what i just adviced but if it's about someone else go for it

My bestfriend(15) , this guy(15), and I(14) all go to that same church. Now my bestfriend and this guy are going out and their parents dont know about itand are completely against them being friends. There hole relation ship is based on rebelion and she realizes it but says she doesnt care at least not right now. He has hurt her a couple of times and she still refuses to see it. She won't listen to any of her friends including me. What the heck am i supposed to do, just sit back and watch???

Ok well you should know that I always don't have the best advice so I got some OTHER people to help me with this one:

**Here's one way (if you're feeling really mean though): You could tell her mom. That would put an end to it if you feel that strongly about it.
~that could be a way to end ur friendship though so... yea not good
**I say tel someone about it her parents your parents, ANYONE RESPONSIBLE! Or talk to him and ask him if he relizes that he hurts her, cuase he might notice that it's wrong to do. But i really think that you should talk to your parents about this first and then see what they sa about it and do what they say.
**Ugh, that sucks. You are in the same situation as I was a few months ago. Just try telling her. Chances are, she won't listen to you. She will just have to learn the hard way. There is nothing else you really can do. Sorry.
**Pray. I mean there is nothing you can do when you have made your point and she isn't listening. She will feel stupid later when she finally breaks it off with him. I promise you, I have done it before as a teenager and a 20 year old. People in love are truly blind.
**that's all you can do, she'll be blind to it and he'll hurt her some more and there's nothing that anyone can do about it, and it's not because she can't see what he's doing, it's because she doesn't want to see it. women can be very blind when it comes to the guy she's dating
**Well, you're friend has her own life, granted at 15 (the teenage years) folks get more egocentric (only seeing the world from their point of view, kinda like toddlers) and well...the more you say she shouldnt do something, the more likely she is to do it. So quit feeling like its your responsibility to "save" her from herself...she will have to learn for herself...thats what life is about :o)
**It'll really be painful but as a true bestfriend. Talk to your bestfriend about it and say that you're only hurting yourself. Try to make her understand but if she doesn't listen no matter how you try to explain to her then just let it go. At least you tried to help her but she didn't listen
ok well hopefully at least one of my friends' advice will help!

Me and my friend really want to meet someone but we dont know how. What's the quickest route to Santa Barbara, California? How can we go with no money, and without our parents knowing it? And how much does it cost to send some guy to Africa?

Ok here's the plan you guys. raise money by babysitting, selling limonade, or whatever you can do that'll get you some bucks quick. Buy cheap delta airline tickets online for a weekend trip. tell your parents the whole i'm staying at bunny's house this weekend and bunny you tell your mom you're staying at fireballs then get one of ya'll brothers to be in on the plan and help you guys out by covering your "tracks" and providing a ride to the airport. fly your butts to cali to see michael jackson at his hotel. the hotel is going to be booked because mj is there so i'd suggest staying at a near motel 6 (nice and cheap for ya!) or somethin where ya'll can just walk across the street to his hotel and party.
may the force be with ya'll on that difficult task
next one. ok i told tim the whole you're going to africa and tara's marrying mj but he didn't exactly understand so i don't know if ya'll can ship him out there. when my dad and bro went it was pretty expensive so it probably still is. i don't really kno what else to tell you about that one. i'll keep on refreshing tim's mind about ya'lls little plan, hope it works.
phew i'm done. i hope i helped

so theres this girl that im goin out with. she is soo beautiful but she doesnt think so how can i show her that she is one of the beautifullest girls ever?

Well it depends on the girl actually. some will start belive you the more you tell them. others will be flattered by the complement but deny it when you tell them. then there are the girls who just flat out don't agree and theres nothin you can do about them besides using ur debating skills. like i said, it all depends on the girl so good luck
