Hey..
I like this guy n i think he likes me too. Im scared to ask him out cuz my friends will maybe b mad at me well i hope it will all work out and im really scared..thank u! (link)
Well... the only way he's gonna know is if you tell him. if you're REALLY scared, then ask a friend (one you don't think will be mad at you... guyfriends are the best to ask) to do it for you. drop some hints for him... or you can write him... just like a little passing note during school or something... otherwise he's gonna be seriously clueless... good luck!

ok well heres my situation . im in high school and ive known this guy since i was in 3rd. grade , weve always been friends , we talk a lot . and i think i like him more then just a friend . well i hav , since 5th grade . and i dono if i shuld tell him cuz like im not that close of a friend to him but like i mean i wana tell him but i dono how . he's so cute!! im afriad he'll say no . im really afraid to ask . and he's since school started ( 1 week ago) and like wen i walk into class he'll b like " hey ___ sit here" or lik in class he'll smile and i'll turn to see what he's doin and he'll look away and he'll bring up lil things and like hit my chair to get my attention. whats this mean , shuld i tell him??? help! (link)
by the sound of it, he likes you. not nessecarily(or however you spell it) love, but he likes you more than you think he does. if he's always paain you winks, and wants to talk to you, that means that you're at least one of his moderately good friends. just let him know with little hints that you're interested. he'll catch on in a few weeks, THEN ask him out, after he knows you like him so that he's not too surprised. people have a tendency to say 'no' right away if they're surprised.

We've been going out for 2 years and her birthday's coming up. What should i do? (link)
i suppose you could do the boring go out to a movie thing, but really what to do?
take her out for coffee at some local place, and then go to your house and force yourself to watch a chick flick for her (princes bride, sweet home alabama... etc) she'll like it... i almost promise.
it really matters how old you are here, and what she likes.... ehh... really just hang out, just the 2 of you, if she's athletic, go play tennis or volleyball or something.
and if you want to buy her something? get her a necklace or a pair of earings or something... even if she's not that girly, she'll still like it, i'll bet.
if you need anymore i ideas, PLEASE email me or IM me or something,

How do you get parents to be less strict?! i rate high! =)
(link)
parents ARE strict... it's their nature. really the only way i can think of is just asking them to let up a little bit. remind them (gently) that they can't protect you from everything. tell them you just need some more space, just like they did when they were your age.
if you need anymore help, PLEASE ask, cause i know exactly what you mean

Can too many fruits a day be bad for you. I am always finding myself picking up an orange and eating it as a snack. I end up eating about twice as many as ur supposed to. lyk 8-10 a day. (link)
well, as you know (obviously) fruit is really good for you, but too much causes diarrihea (or however you spell it) so unless you don't mind having it, you probably should cut down.

i'm 13 and i want to find a job to raise money. is there any places i can work at? i rate realli high! but there is one problem..i love babysitting..but there isn't many people i know with younger kids. so besides babysitting..what else? (link)
the only place i can think of that hires people under 15 is the greenhouses. it's grunge work, but you get paid. and about babysitting.... talk to people at school, neighborhood, church... ask your parents to recomend you, even put up signs in nice communites saying you're willing to babyssit for X amount of kids for X dollars an hour...
hope i helped, and if you need anymore ideas, just ask

Does anyone know a quick way to get rid of poison ivy. I know Chlorine and Bleach help...but anything else?

-Thanks
-Zero (link)
okay, this is gonna sound really weird, but it works. in th rainforest in the yucatan peninsula(mexico) there is a tree called the box chechem, it is VERY poisonous, and leaves a rash that can last more than six months. the only way to get rid of it is by boiling the bark of tha chaca tree, and putting it on your skin. i've tried it also on poison ivy, and it helps. now, it probably won't help you right now, but you can get it online(or if you live or ever go to mexico you can get it there) for future poison ivy... it works really really fast. sorry i can't help for THIS TIME, i really am, but i never found anything but tha chaca bark that helps.

What's a good way to get rid of pimples? (link)
probably the best way is to not touch them, and to wash them several times a day with a regular bar of dove soap. DON'T TOUCH THEM!!! REMEMBER!!! i suppose if you WANT to spend money on something that doesn't work all that well... some face cleaners work really well though. i like nuetrogena or something... i can't rightly remember what it's called.
but really, just don't touch it (you don't want to get more oils on it) and wash it a lot.

hi my name is jessica and my friend thinks i called her jerk when i didnt now she started a big fight i said sry but i think shes still mad at mewhat should i do!!! PLZ HELP (link)
ah... you made little mistake there. you said sorry. if you told her you were sorry, now she REALLY thinks you called her a jerk, cause you basically admitted it by apologizing for it. just leave her alone for a little bit, let her think about it, and tell her you never said that. if that doesn't work, send her a letter, or just give her a note... i doubt your friendship will be broken just because you called her a jerk, but just let her have some time to realiz that.

hey... does anyone know how to delete some questions you've asked in the past on "Your Questions" thing. And can you delete an advice you've answered on your advice column??

-thanks

[i RaTe] (link)
you can't delete any questions you ask... no one can. and you alos can't 'delete' answers you've already given, but you CAN edit answers you've given to someone. under "Welcome ________" there's inbox, and your advice coulmn, etc... go to edit answers and you can redo advice you told someone.

Me and my gf broke up and like a week after we broke up she wrote this really sweet note in her journal to my future gf telling them basicly that they should never let me go and that i was this really sweet and awsome guy. was it wrong for me to break up wit her sometimes i get confused. (link)
i dunno if it was WRONG to break up with her, it's obvious that she still likes you though. if you're over her, don't get back together... you'll regret it, but if you DO still like her, yes, ask her out pronto, she sounds like a sweetie.

ok,i've been having these wierd dreams. ever since i heard the word "rape",i always dream about it. after i dream about me getting raped, i dream that me and my ex bf (who i still luv 2 death) are making out on a cloud. sry if i confused people. can you tell me what it might mean? pleez helpp! thanx (link)
it probably means nothing. i mean, last night i had a dream about the coca cola bear giving me a life long supply of coke. like that's gonne happen.
you often dream of things you just did, or saw, and often what you fear. dreams can actually really toughen you up. they can make you face your most prominent fears, they can confuse the heck out of you (which is usually the case), and they can tempt you.
last i heard that someone's dream meant anything was in the bible... i don't think you should worry about being raped or anything.

whats the difference between feedback and rating?? because it says i have 2 feedbacks a 5 and a 4....but at my adverage rating it says 0. i just joined yesterday.

will RATE well

thanks!

{{{please dont delete!! i really need help}}} (link)
the ratings are the numbers you get... like a 5 or a 4. feedback is the comments you get, like, thanks for the help, or good idea or something. if you go to your advice column, and click on 'view feedback' you can see what i mean.

Ok, My names Mike and I was wondering, I'm a very random person and will do anything to get a laugh from anyone. So. I do alot of random stupid things just to get a luagh, but sometimes the things I do make people think I'm just a retard. So, I'm wondering if anyone thinks that people like me are funny and great to have aound? And what I mean by people like me is, people with no care of what people think and will is unhibited and will act wild and crazy just for kicks. (link)
is your last name, by chance, savage, is it? hmm... nvm.

Seriously? i love to have folks like yeh around. you put the life into schools and events, and are just downright hilarious. anybody who DOESN'T like you should just kick the can and beat it. as long as you're still getting your laughs, you're okay.

i'm 12 and i started my 1st period june 15. i heard u were supposed to get it every 28 days and i'm about a week late if that's the case! could i be pregnant, i mean i havn't had sex, but could i be? plz help!
(link)
no, you're NOT pregnant.... stop worrying. it's perfectly normal for you to have extra weeks in and out. after i had my period the first time, there was about a month and a half before i hd my next one.
i even know someone who had her period once, and didn't get it again for a whole year.
lots of girls don't get a routine in their period for several years. you may go 28 days, or 42 days or something. you won't get a specific amount of days between your periods for a few years.
REMEMBER:you are perfectly normal to have that, and unless you've been having sex or been messing around with guys, you are not pregnant.
