Hi, my names Melanie.

I love fashion, hanging out with my friends,
and drawing and writing along with a bunch of other stuff.
I used to have an old account here that was quite known for awhile,
but I sort of just lost touch with it,
so I decided to make a new one.
I'll try and help you the best I can,
just hopefully I didn't lose touch with my good advice, haha.
And feel free to IM me with your problem too.

well i have this one guyfriend, well we're buddies,he hugs me a lot i would say too much, which i think its kind of weird, well this past friday he said that he was attracted to me in some way. I did not know what to do so i didnt say anything, the worst part is that he has a girlfriend and she talks to me, I feel really bad!... my question is what should I do and how do I know if he was telling me the truth about what he feels for me?? (link)
The next time you're talking to him ( in whichever way you're most comfortable talking to him; phone, IM, or in person ) then just be like,"Hey, I have a question about what you told me this past Friday. Whenever you said you were attracted to me... is that true?" And see what he says. Whenever he answers "Yes", cause I'm pretty sure he will, then I would have a serious talk with him about it.

I would just be like,"Oh, well I just don't understand how you like me whenever you have a girlfriend. What about her? She's really nice, and she talks to me, so whenever I think of this it makes me feel really bad. :/" ( or whatever you want to say ) And just see what he answers back and talk it out with him.

I hope I helped.


ok
14/m
i'm going to a party on saturday after i get back from vacation, and my ex girlfriend is going to be there. we were together for 4 months, and i absolutely loved her. we broke up about a week and a half ago. she's going with this guy that is apparantly the reason we broke up, and its REALLY pissing me off. i thought about bringing this really pretty friend i have to make my ex jealous, but she's already busy on saturday. so what should i do? i definitely want to go to the party, but i don't know what to do about the fact that she's going to be there with that guy...

thanks guys

You can always bring another cute girl friend of yours, can't you? Or if you know another cute girl that's going to be there at the party already, then just start talking to her there and be sure to give her a big hug & all.

But if you can't find a girl, just go. Don't let your ex-girlfriend ruin your fun. Just ignore her and enjoy the time you're spending with the person who invited you and everyone else that's there. If she tries to introduce him to you, play it off and act like you're cool and say hi. And then you can just go back to doing whatever you want. Just try your best not to even think about her and remember that she's there. I know it's going to be really hard but just try your best to forget, and really have fun. :] It's kind of like a double whammy there, too. You have fun and then whenever she sees how much fun you're having and all the socializing you're doing she might get a little jealous/hurt that you're not more hurt that she dumped you.

In the movie the holiday, is the movie preview in the movie real? Where the guy makes the movie trailer, and the movie is called Christmas Day and it has James Franco and Lindsay Lohan in it. Is it a real movie? (link)
No, I don't think that's a real movie. I jsut tried googling the name of the movie and Linsday Lohan's name and nothing came up.


I hope I helped.


plz help me. how do u makeout???? idk how (link)
neither do i. i've never done it either, so i'm just as lost as you are about it.


the most help i can give you is to either google it up because there are loads of "how to kiss" etc. kind of sites that'll give you some good tips and what not to do's and everything, but if you don't want to do that, then the only other option i can think of is to try and ask someone else. i'm sorry i couldn't be of more help.

instead of privately asking one advicenator, make the question to all of them so you can get different answers from different people and see what one you like best.

okay i get headaches EVERY single day. sometimes they're bad and sometimes they're not; but i get them everyday. and i know thats not normal. so do you have any idea what would be wrong? =/ (link)
I'm not too sure what could be the matter. Here's a list of numerous types of headaches you could have:

http://www.coedu.usf.edu/zalaquett/Help_Screens/headaches.htm

Try reading some and seeing if any of them are similiar towards what you might have. But seriously, you're right it's not normal to be having headaches everyday, so I would consider going to your doctor and discussing this with him and getting their professional opinion on everything and what you should do; cause they'd know better than anybody, right?

I hope I helped.


who's audrey hepburn and james dean...why are they so famous and are they alive today..if not how did they die? (link)
Audrey Hepburn ( she's a role model of mine ): In the 50's and 60's she was a very popular actrees and starred in alot of popular movies. She was also very into dontations and charities. She worked with UNICEF ( United Nations Children Fund ) which she was appointed ambassador of, I think. And she died in 1993 of colon cancer.

James Dean: He only got to star in three major films because he died in 1955 when he was only 24 in a car accident. But he's those three major films made him extremely popular and well known to everybody.

hey.
i've always wanted to get backstage passes. but i don't know how to get them =/
i really want backstage passes to like jesse mccartney or something.
do you know where i could get them? thanks! (link)
I'm not too sure where myself on how to get them otherwise I'd be getting them myself, but obviously if you're VIP and have connections and are in the press you can but seeing as you're probably not, then the most I can suggest is trying to find the site that's holding all the information about your concert and see if the page has any information on where to get backstage passes.

That's about all I can suggest. If you haven't already ( I'm not sure if I'm the only advicenator you've sent this too ) but if I am, then try sending it out to all the advicenators so hopefully someone might be able to help you more on this. I'm sorry I couldn't be of much more help. :/


I'm 14/f and I constantly find myself getting very bored around girls because I have no urge or interest to talk about make up or hair or dresses and celebrity gossip and blah blah.

I am more entertained I guesss you can say when I'm talking with guys because personally, some of them actually talk about interesting topics and some I can get into deep conversations with.

I only have two girls that I can talk with and nto get bored with and one too many guy friends that I'm always talking with...

Is that weird? And another question is would guys be intiminated by the fact that I have a whole group of guy friends and only 2 girl friends??? (link)
No, it's not weird at all. I myself have found it's SO much easier to just be able to talk to guys and be more yourself. And plus, girls are so dramatic anyway. It's just alot more fun and worry-free whenever you're hanging around guys.

Some guys may get intimidated, others, no. It all depends on the guy, really. They might think you might like a bunch of your guy friends, but I'm sure if your guy ever might your friends and go to know them, he'd be cool with all of them. :]

I hope I helped.


is it suppose to be blue/purple-ishy colored?
thanks. :] (link)
It's not supposed to be that color at all. I really think you should go see your doctor and talk with him/her about that.

Today is the last day I can call my youth pastor to tell him that I want to go on this trip that the chruch is having. The problem is, my father has a tendency to say NO to everything and he constantly tells me I don't deserve these things. Another hurdle, I have a problem with speaking with people with my fear of rejection. Now, I've been doing my chores, I have good grades, and I've been an all around good teenager. How can/should I ask him? (link)
I would just sit down with your father and let him know you have something important to talk about with him.

I would just be like,"Now dad, you know I get good grades, I've been doing all my chores, I'm responsible. Now the Church is having this trip that I really want to go on. Now today is the last day that I can call the Youth Pastor and let him know if I can go or not, so please, can I go? It's not like anything bad is going to happen since it IS a church trip, and there's going to be adult supervision and everything." And just give him all the details on where you're going, and what you guys are doing.

I hope I helped & I hope he says yes.


i have a bf that im a sure im going to marry some day because we have talked about it and our families would love us to get married.he is soo cute but the thing is i dont want to have sex with him intul i get married . it just seems like the right thing. the problem is he doesnt want to wait becuase like i said we know we r going to get married to each other. we do make out some times and its great but some times he wants to go further like trying to unbotton my shirt or un botton his pants. so how do i say no? (link)
If he continues to do this, you need to sit down with him and have a serious talk with him about it. Explain to him that you're not ready for this and that he's making you feel uncomfortable wheenver he's trying to initiate it. You love him and everything, and you're not saying you don't ever want to have sex with him, you just want to wait till you're married.

If he really respected you, he'd understand and respect your decision, and leave it at that. If he tries to use one of those "if you loved me, you would" excuses, just reply with "if you loved ME, you would just respect my choice."

If he still continuously does it over and over again and doesn't listen to you at all, I would re-think your relationship with him. Cause someone who loves you wouldn't try to get in your pants time after time.

I hope I helped.


so yeah. im going to a party soon at my semi-friends (amandas) house. its a birthday party- sleepover so theres no guys.. sadly haha. so umm thing is she kind of hangs out with the "getto" kids or w.e.. its not like people from the clique dont like me its just that im diffrent from most of them. im like a hollister wearing prep. haha. im only friends with like two or three people from like that clique but they arent going to the party.. so this is going to be weird.. any advice?
(link)
It's only going to be weird if you let it become weird. The way people dress shouldn't really matter - me, personally, I have different friends from all kinds of cliques.

Just whenever you meet them, introduce yourself like you would to anybdoy you ever meet. Just wave and be like "Hey, I'm ____." And just try and make as much conversation as you can. Seeing as it's a birthday party, I'm sure you guys are going to be doing some sort of activity which'll instantly be an ice-breaker seeing as that gives you something right off the bat to talk about with them.

Who knows? At the end of the party, you could be exchanging numbers or screenames or somethnig and walk away with a bunch of new friends. :]


I hope I helped.


okay so i hang out with a lot of guys. but i cant really help it. i just get along better with guys. girls start too much drama and i hate drama. so some girls at my school think im a whore and are startin rumors that im doin stuff with all the guys i hang out with and that im cheatin on my boyfriend. but thats so not true. these guys are like my brothers. i wouldn't do anything with them. and i would never cheat on my boyfriend! he means the world to me. and he understands that i have a lot of guy friends and he's okay with it. he knows i wouldn't do anything with any of them. but i dont want that kind of rumor about me to spread. i mean. everyone at school knows im not like that. and my boyfriend and all my friends were like dont worry about it, they are just jealous that all the guys talk to you and not them. but idk. what do you think? (link)
Your boyfriend and your friends are totally right. All these girls are just jealous that you're friends with all these guys & that you can talk to them all so easily, and they can't. They probably have to try & fight for the guys's attention.

Who cares what these girls think? You said so yourself, that's all they do is cause drama, and rumors come & go. Next week it'll be something else someone did that's spreading around the school. All you have to remember is that they can open their mouths and say all they want, in the end you still got all of the guys on your side, and they're probably not looking too good to the guy's right now cause they're just a bunch of dramatic idiots.

I hope I helped.


Is there a site that i can go to, to get FREE music downloads and not have to give them a credit card num or whatever. One that downloads to windows and will alow me to put it on my mp3 player?
Please help (link)
I use Limewire.

It's really nice, and I have so much music downloaded onto there.

I hope I helped.


My friend Monique has a lot of clothes (which are beatiful). She lives with her mom. And her mom does compliment her a lot (just not every day) on how beatiful Moniques clothes are. This morning Monique was wearing a lime green sweater and her mom told that she loved the sweater. Monique started to wonder why her mother didnt tell her that the sweater she wore yesterday was beautiful. So she asked her mother; why didnt you say my sweater yesterday was beautiful. Her mother said; Monique stop being insecure. It is like if you said to me gee mom you look good today, I wouldnt think you did not think I looked good yesterday; MY QUESTION: DO YOU THINK MONIQUE IS OVERREACTING. (link)
Yes, Monique is overreacting.

Compliments are something that should be said every once in awhile, and only when truley meant. That's why whenever people recieve compliments, they feel good and are in a good mood.

If you were told every single day you looked good, it'd get a worn out, wouldn't it? I think it would.

I'm sure her mother thinks she looks good everyday and loves all of her sweaters and outfits, she just might've like the lime green one alot more than others or something.

Plus, complimenting someone every single day can sometimes turn a person vain, and her mother might not want her daughter becoming that.

I hope I helped.


i always feel like my mom likes my sister better. just because shes the perfect A student and nice and quiet and not crazy and hyper and procrastinating and rebellious like i am. i get good grades i dont do drugs i'm a good kid but me and my friends can get really hyper sometimes thats IT. and i tend to argue alot (my mom's genes..) so basically i do some "bad stuff" as a teenager such as talk on the phone too much, stay up late during sleepovers, etc... stuff EVERY teenager does! even including my perfect sister (who btw graduated high school now). and my mom picks on me soo much for all these little things while my sister..she didn't even care b/c my sister got perfect 98's while i get like..93's and procrastinate!??? i can't stand my mom i told her this but she just won't listen to me, what do i do? i'm not going to change myself just to please my mom because come on i'm not some crack addict but i asked my mom and she was like "yeah change". what do i do????? (link)
I've been in a somewhat similiar situation countless times. My mom & her side of the family all seem to adore my brother who goes out till five in the morning, got arrested for drugs, etc. Yet me, whenever I have a like 90 in a class, "you could've done better", or I procrastinate too or I didn't finish my dinner or something.

Try sitting down with your mother and talking to her about it. It might feel a little weird letting out all your feelings to her ( it was for me at least ) but she needs to know how you're feeling so the next time she feels like opening her mouth and saying something negative towards you, she try and put your feelings into consideration. I would just be like,"Mom, I feel like you like ( your older sister ) better than me most of the time cause she get's 98's in school and she's quiet and nice and everything, where I'm not. But mom, I'm a good kid too. I don't do drugs or drink or anything, I just do what every other teenager does ; stays up late at sleepovers and yeah, I get a little hyper but I'm a kid ; I have loads of energy, I can't help it. But whenever you sit here and rag on me for all these little things like having a 93 whenever that's still a good grade, it makes me feel like I'm the bad daughter or something." And just see what she says. Hopefully she'll want to talk about it and resolve the issue and things'll get better.

( With my mom though ) She decided to deny things like that and she still continues to do it, so if your mom decides to be like mine ( hopefully not ) then what I just do now is ignore her. I just think I know she's wrong, and I know yout grades are great and that I'm not a bad daughter. And whenever we're in the car or somewhere and she starts tallking negatively to me, I just go up into my room or I put on my ipod so I don't have to listen to her. You know you're a good daughter and you're right, you shouldn't have to change.


I think your mom needs to learn the term,"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."


I hope I helped.


ok so i have a problem i REAALLLLY like this boy named damon... and he works with my brother.... and he goes to my school he is on the varsity basketball team... and he just broke up with his girlfriend.... but the problem is i feel like an idiot if i talk to him... and it just seems like im gonna make a fool of myself and i cant ever think of anything to talk to him about.... i am a girl and im 15 and he is a boy and is 16... he is in my grade and i see him alot in the halls.... and i help out the varsity basketball coach so i see him even more then if i didnt.... and ive even gotten so desperate as to talk to the coach about him.... but he just says that i need to talk to him but i just cant ever think of anything to say without thinking to myself that i am stupid.... PLEASE HELP ME!!!! (link)
It's completely normal to think you're goign to mess up, you're just nervous, it's totally fine. Just try your best to talk to him ; take deep calm breaths, and just relax. If he's on the varsity basketball team, there's already something to talk to him about! Compliment him on the good game they played last night, or tell him that was a good shot he made during practice. And then continue on about school, maybe like other classes or some horrible test you two had to take, and try and just continue the conversation onto other interests he may have.

Even if you do mess up, laugh. He'll understand, I mean, we're all just human, we're bound to mess up. It may turn up to become an icebreaker and a joke to start off with for the next time you two start talking.



I hope I helped!
