how do i get rid of red bumps after shaving my legs??!!?! please help! i rate HIGH! (link)
it might be that your legs are sensitive to your razor or shaving cream..so i would try some other types of razors ((venus and intuition are awesome))..if thats not it you could just have dry skin. try some lotion after you dry your legs off.
hope i help

My b/f thinks im cheating on him... but his friends are telling me he is the 1 that is going around grabbing other girls butts! should i believe them and break up with him... or should i just go on pretending like i don't notice? (link)
you should sit him down and talk to him. about eveything. there shouldnt be this kind of gossip in a relationship. if he is grabbing other girls buts..hello! dump him! there are soo many better guys out there who can be soo much better boyfriends. never pretend like you dont notice
hope i help

I have a friend who cant keep her mouth shut! She tells everything I say and I always try to remember tp tell her stuff but sometimes i am just itcing to tell someone. I really wanna be her friend but then again I dont NEED her! any suggestions? 5 points for anyone who helps! xoxo (link)
um hello! real friends DONT tell secrets!! i would definitely sit her down and tell her that you wont tell her your secrets if she keeps spilling. maybe she's just a natural gossiper. who knows? but i would try finding a quieter more trustworthy friend to spill to
hope i help

ok im going 2 a new school and i hav a new friend.. she and i both like the same guy... and unfortunately he won't tell ne 1 who he likes at the moment... and he never tells ne 1 if its the newest person i school.... and im not sure if he likes me... but my friend says he does.... she isn't mad at me... but i dont' want 2 her 2 no that i like him.... what should i do 2 find out if he likes me? should i ask him myself?

RATING!

Thanx, Hope (lil hil) (link)
talk to your friend about it. maybe she doesnt like him anymore! however if you do find out who this guy likes...dont go out with him unless you have permission from your friend. remember..boyfriends and crushes are gonna come and go..but friendships last forever. and you really dont want to lose a friend over something like this.
hope i help

Okay, there's this girl who is supposed to be my friend. Well, let's say she doesn't act like it. She calls me "idiot", "fool", and a bunch of other names. She's also (according to the guy I used to like) asked the guy I liked out, and I trust the guy I liked because I've known him for a while. She knew that I liked him. She also tries to make me look stupid and bad, because we're on the same sports team, and she'll throw the ball in a weird way and I can't catch it, then she'll say "What an idiot!" or something like that. I'm sick of it. Should I just stop being friends with her, and if so, how?

Thank you so much in advance. I'm sorry it's so long. (link)
she doesnt sound like a really good friend. friends should be encouraging and definitely not call you names. and if she is trying to take away the guy she KNOWS you like..she's not anywhere near friend material. if you still want your 'friendship' to have a chance..sit her down and talk to her and work everything out.

I have officially met the love of my life.He treats me better than anyone ive ever known. he says he wants to take care of me for the rest of my life, and hes proven that in many ways. there are only two problems: 1. he has a girl living with him- they used to go out, but now theyre just sharing living quarters.hes moving soon, and shes not coming with.2.(the main issue, at hand)there is about 15 or 16 years between us, and i should probably mention that i am defintely not 18. its so hard to keep this a secret and lie to everyone around me, i hate it, but i love him so much. PLEASE give me an honest opinion on how you, personally would handle my situation. thanx for any advice you can give. (link)
erm...your not 18 yet? isnt it like illegal for him to go out with you?? and also..why is he living with his ex?? you should probably think about all of this.and dont lie to your friends and family. maybe they can help you
*hope i help*

In my Humanities class, we are working on a paper proposal for a 4 page paper we need to complete by the end of the year. The topic is completely up to us as long as it is somewhat dealing with Humanities. I have 2 different areas that I would like to try researching and eventually writing my paper on, but I'm at a loss as to which one to choose from. The first is Abortion, and the second is Teen drug/alcohol abuse. My paper proposal is due tomorrow and I'm not sure which topic to choose and what I should write about in the proposal. Can you give me your opinion as to which topic I should pick and how to go about writing this proposal? Or, if you have any other suggestions as to a topic to use, that would be helpful too. Thanks so much! (link)
i would say the teen alcohol/drug abuse. get statistics and stuff. plus there is sooo much more stuff on alcohol and drugs to rite about than on abortion.
hope i helped

I'm 15, female and I have been dating my bf for almost a month now. I am a cutter but none of my friends know about it. My bf and I were talking about one of our friends being a cutter and he asked me if I was. I lied to him and told him I wasn't. Now I feel terrible about lying to him. I afraid of how he will react if I tell him. Do you think I should tell him the truth?
(link)
you should. if your bf really likes you, then you can get through it. but expect him to react a little. id go ahead and tell him because if he finds out somehow later on that you were lying..he wont be very happy.
hope i help

ok so theres this guy who ive liked ever since i can remember.. he just broke up with his gf of 8 months. hes like the only person i cant act normal around, its kind of hard for me to talk to him. anyways one of my best friends is really good friends with him but i have a feeling they will hook up. they always flirt and he picks her up and she was sitting on him. me and him are flirty sometimes too, but it was this way before he went out with his old girlfriend too. she won him over before i did and i dont want it to happen again. how can i win him over and try to keep my best friend away from him? (link)
flirt with him a lot! make yourself noticed to him! but dont let him get in the way between you and ur best friend cuz best friends last a lot longer.
hope i help

Well my boyfriend of six months just broke up with me and we both are totally in love with each other and always have been but this isn't the first time we've broken up. Though the reason we have broken up is because we have both been really hurt in the past and are really scraed to let any one get close to use even though we are really already close to each other. I know I want to go back out with him but how do I tell him that I want to go back out with him but can't break up again because of him being scared to let me get close. I mean this time it really tore me up I haven't got any sleep and been crying all week. Plus the thing is we are already both superclose to each other. I rate high please help!! (link)
you should definitely talk to him. if he feels the same as you, then you should ask him back out. if he doesnt then you should move on and find someone else.
hope i help a little

Okay, so there's this guy that's been my really good friend for a long time. Last October, I got a crush on him. Then in December, he had a girlfriend, but he told me that he'd liked me since October too, and a week later, he broke up with his girlfriend. But he didn't ask me out until a month later, because he 'didn't want people to think he liked me when he liked his other girlfriend'. So we were 'sort of' going out for about a month, but we never actually went on a date. He asked me out to a carnival, but then he ditched me. Then...worst of all...the school dance. He danced with me once, and then went back to his ex girlfriend and was dancing with HER for the rest of the time. I talked to him and he told me he didn't like me anymore, but we decided to stay friends anyways.
Now, about 3 months later...I think I still like him, but I'm not sure. We're still very good friends. I want him to be happy with whatever girl he goes out with, but I'm jealous at the same time. My heart jumps when I had to kiss him on the cheek for this school performance..and when I fell asleep on his shoulder in the movie theater (with other friends there)...and I feel crap when I see the girl he likes sleeping on his other shoulder, or sitting super close to him. What should I do? How do I get over him? Please help! (link)
wow you are EXACTLY like me! even the dates are the same!! i liked a guy since october then he went out with someone else, dumped her in december, waited till january to go out with me, then danced with his ex through half of our dance! and now he is happily going out with his ex again and i have finally gotten over him! ill tell you a few things. first of all, you won't get over him until you meet a guy who really makes you feel as good as he did ((at first)). and if your guy goes out with other girls, of course you'll be jealous. i mean, you still like him, so you have every right to be jealous. just don't do anything which would make his new girl think you still like him, cuz that can lead into a big issue. i would just let it be known that ur single and looking, but make an effort to stay his friend. because girlfriends come and go, but real friends ((any gender)) stay forever. i know it'll be really hard, but there is a guy out there who is everything this guy is and more.
i hope i helped. if you wanna talk sometime, im at augustagurrl@yahoo.com

well, i recently broke up with my boyfriend. before we broke up, we told each other that even if we did brake up, we still wanted to be friends. it has been almost a week since we broke up and the jerk won't even talk to me. i have tried talking to him, being as nice as i possibly can under the circumstances. what is up with this? is he taking time and wasting away what we could have or does he not want anything to do with me? thanks in advance.

confused & ready to kill the dude (link)
he might just be sore about you breaking up, or maybe hes just being a jerk. if he's not gonna be nice when you give him the chance, you're just wasting your time
hope i help

My mom won't let my peirce my belly, and i have wanted it for two years now. I have tryed to convince her that i want it done but she still says no! Any ideas? Please help asap!!!!! (link)
i know exactly how you feel! well if i were you, i would have some backup for WHY you should get it pierced. maybe make a deal, like all As and Bs for one semester in exchange for getting it pierced. if that doesnt work, just talk to her about it. maybe she has a really good reason why she doesnt want you to get it pierced.
hope i helped
xoxo


HOW do i become more outgoing?! I want to get more friends and be funny,instead of a shy good girl!! can anyone help? thnx! (link)
hey being shy rocks! i mean if you want to be more outgoing..just open up and talk alot. but sometimes people want to be around quieter people. and oh ya, real friends will like you for however you are..quiet, shy, loud etc. you dont necessarily get friends for being outgoing, and sometimes you even lose friends. i would just stick with being yourself.
sorri if it doesnt help
xoxo
