about

Hello -- I'm Becky. I am here for you, to help you with anything you need help with. I'll try my hardest to answer your questions. It may not always be what you want to here, but know that I always put my time and effort into each answer. I'm not here to gain points from you, when you rate my advice... I don't long for a 5 as my rating. All I care about is helping you. It's ridiculous how people basically go on this website to see if what they is justified and right, and if advice columnists state otherwise, they rate your advice low. For example, a 13 year old girl asking how to give oral sex. First of all, it's not bad if someone warns you to put what you're doing into deep thought and consideration. They are just trying to give you their opinion on the situation. Isn't that the whole point of this website? Exactly.
Anywhoooo, I'm 15 years old. Yes, 15. Too young? No! I'm very mature for my age. If you dont want to get advice from a 15 year old, then don't listen to it... However, I'm still going to give you my opinion :)
Florida -- Yes the hot sun, all the variety of people, and the beaches is all here. I love Miami, I've been here all my life and I dont intend on leaving any time soon. I've actually had no choice, since I've never even left the state :0 But that will chance this summer. :) Hmmm... (And it did!)
I go to High School and I am a Freshman. :0
What else? Well, I play the guitar and I have been playing since I was in 4th grade. I love everything about music -- it's my life. Seriously, I either have my iPod to jamm to, iHome, computer... I basically need music anywhere I go, because I really can't live without it. I mean I could, but it would be a very depressing and boring life 0.o
I've gone through so much drama the past few years of my life and I'm not even in highschool. Each time I go through a horrible situation, I learn from it for the next one. It's hard, but that's life. Everyone has drama in their life. Everyone has been betrayed. Everyone is going through or has gone through these stages of seeing who your true friends really are in the end. It's a hard journey, and I'm no where near done with it. But everyone goes through it. And if you have any problems or questions a long the way, I am here to help. :D

advice

15/f. i really like this one guy who is in 8th grade and i'm in 9th grade. we hang out a lot outside of school in this one group of friends. i'm just confused because sometimes i think he likes me and my one friend in 8th grade thinks that he likes me too, its just that he has a girlfriend! so i don't know what to do. like we hang out because we are friends but its hard not to flirt with him. and once i left my friends decided to play a game of would you rather with him. this is what happened:

my friend: would you rather go out with ashley or katie (me)?
my crush: well i'd go out with ashley, but i'd rather go out with katie.

and this got me really happy because this other girl ashley is always flirting with him and he flirts back. so then i thought that this obviously means that he likes me! but he still has a girlfriend, and i figure if he liked me that much he'd break up with his girlfriend and go out with me.

but then i don't want to be mean and cause them to breakup! see this is my problem! so can anybody tell me if 1) you think he likes me and 2)what do i do since he has a girlfriend?

thanks so much for reading this and helping me!

[1]He does sound like he likes you, since he flirts with you and everything - But guys at that age are players. They can like more than one girl you know?
[2] He does'nt really seem to be boyfriend material. Like you said, he has a girlfriend and flirts with other girls, like ashley and you and probably plenty more. If he ever did break up with his girlfriend and asked you out, how would you feel if he was flirting with other girls and might even do the same thing to you that he could do to her? It's easier and better if you dont make them break up, because it isnt right. If they ever happen to break up, then make your move but be careful, with him flirting with other girls. Good luck!

So I am in marching band, and I am friends with people from other schools that my band regularly competes against.

I, through MySpace, have been talking to some boys from another school (I'm 15/f), and so I went to go sit with their band yesterday during a festival. The boy's name I sat with was Seth. Seth immediately grabbed my hand and he was tickling me, I was on his lap, etc.

So, he is not friends with another member of his band, Riley. In fact, he harbored rumors about Riley and my best friend, Laraine, hooking up, even though both are currently taken. However, Seth was totally sweet to me and I like him now.

The thing is, though, I told Rily and Laraine that I wouldn't talk to Seth anymore, but he just imed me to tell me how much fun he had talking to me yesterday, and he apologized to me for the whole rumor thing.

I don't know exactly what I'm asking, but people have warned me about this guy. However, he makes me happy when I talk to him, and I'm also friends with this best friend.

Oh, and he might be gay. According to Riley, he came out of the closet and then went back into the closet in high school.

So, what do you think I should do?

You shouldnt of told your friends you werent going to talk to him because if they see that you do, they're going to be mad that you went back on your word. However, they dont control what you do and who you talk to. It sounds strange that he came out and went back into the closet. He probably did it for attention or a joke. But maybe Riley said it to spread a rumor about Seth just like Seth spread a rumor about Riley, you never really know. The thing is, people can lie about other people. People may warn you about him, but that doesnt mean you shouldnt give him a chance, just keep your eyes open and dont believe everything you hear. Goodluck:)

when is it right to tell someone you love them...and what if they dont tell u they love u back

how do i know he really means it?

help me out

There isn't a right or wrong time to tell someone you love them. If you feel it, say it. You shouldnt be ashamed just because the person you're telling might not exactly feel the same way YET. And if he doesnt say they love you back, doesnt mean they wont ever. Atleast, they were honest and didnt lie about it just to respond to you. You'll feel it when he says he loves you to determine if he means it or not. There is no way of actually knowing, then to just trust him. Goodluck!
:D

Ok when I get to the gym I start sweating pretty bad and I get major B.O. what can I do to help get rid of this?

You're supposed to sweat at the gym, everyone there is probably in the same situation. As for the B.O. wear deodarant, if you're a guy: right guard is good or use a body spray like axe or tag. If you're a girl, secret and ban are good too with plenty of different scents that are good.

my best friend maria and i are in the biggest fight of our history of fights.....she even told me that she didnt want to be my friend...now i fell guilty for what i said...i said that she annoys me. all she ever talks about is her boyfriend, soccer, and how much she loves this guy seth and how much she hates these girls madison and adriane. i really want to be her friend cause she is the best friend i have ever had....i even said that i dont think her boyfriend is real and she wrote me this note saying that she dosent want to be my friend. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!! I AM SO AFRAID TO TELL HER THAT I AM SORRY CAUSE I AM AFRAID THAT SHE WILL SAY THAT SHE HATES ME OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!

First of all, if it just happened she's obviously going to be upset. However, you told her the truth and just because it wasnt something she didnt want to hear, it shouldnt ruin a good friendship. If you are acting like this with her, showing her that you REALLY need her as a friend and that you're afraid to apologize because you dont want her not to be your friend, she might use this against you by doing exactly what you dont want to happen, just for the hell of it and to hurt you just like you hurt her. If you guys become friends again, good, but you cant tipy toe around her even if you want to stay friends. It's good that you told her how you felt and dont regret that for a minute. Just give her time, and take some time yourself to re-evaluate the situation. You might think YOU and only YOU are wrong in this, but she is overreacting. If that's how she is with everything, then you deserve better friends and you should find someone out there that treats you right! Good luck! :)

I just bought my dress for prom, my sister loves it but my mom didnt get too excited I Love it to but it was somewhat an impluse of a buy. Now that I have it at home im wondering if it screams PROM to me, it needs some alterations and it was kinda expensive (300 Bux) Do you think its just me being a nervous person or do you think I should stick with my gut feeling???

If you're having doubts on something, make sure you are in LOVE with it, and you cant have any other dress but that one. Alterations are going to cost more and it was already 300 bucks, you need to ask yourself if that dress is really worth it. If it is, then keep it. If its not, return it and I'm sure there is a dress out there waiting for you =)

behind my parents backs...its been about 10 monthes now and my boyfriend and i are still together...he's turning 20 in 2 days and i just turned 16 so yea theres a 4 yr age difference. my parents flipped out when they found out over the summer. they hate the age difference and swore they'd get him kicked off FDNY....i can't afford to risk that for me but we're just so in love and i dont know what to do anymore. i hate sneaking around and lying to my parents.

You have to tell them because they are bound to found out sooner or later. They cant force you to break up, they're probably going to be furious but atleast it's off your chest and a hude weight is lifted off your shoulders. You cant always tell you parents what they want to here, but you should tell them everything no matter what. Good luck!

I'm 21/F. I'm getting married in two months, and I love my fiance very much, but I am so nervous. I'm having second thoughts about the wedding, and I feel incredibly guilty, and horrible. I know he's not at all nevous. I want to talk to my fiance, but I'm afraid he'll be mad or think I don't love him, and I don't want that. I really do want to be his wife, I guess I'm just scared. Is it normal to feel this way? Or am I being a horrible fiance.

Definately, called cold feet.
Talk to him, he's going to understand it's completely normal and happens to everyone!

any sites BESIDES youtube and musixzone that have music that i can listen to the album for free? and like just open it up? also, totally random, but if you know, what kind of music is paramore like?

Amazon.com; The music, you type in the artist, album or song and there's a list of albums that when you click and scroll down, the list of songs are there that you can listen to through Windows Media Player. And, if you like it so much, you can buy the album too.
Also, musicvideos.com which has a lot of music videos from artists that you can look at.

i got caught with a drug and now all i want to do is put it all behind me. i never want to do it again but its hard because some of my friends still do it. i need distractions or something. how do i keep myself away from drugs?

Sucks that you got caught but you shouldnt of even done it in the first place. I'm not here to lecture you, what's done is done. I would get a better group of friends by joining things that interest you. Any hobbys you have that you love to do? DO THAT! It will help... getting your mind off drugs. Or replace drugs with a food, like gum? If you dont have a hobby, try new things, playing an instrument, doing sports, running? Anything like that! Just try and get your mind off of it and if you stay friends with the people that still do drugs, dont let them get to you, rise above the influence! It's good that you want to stop though :)

im 15/f. whenever i find out a guy i like is gonna ask me out my immediate thoughts are: how is this going to end? if we date am i going to end up breaking up with him? will he end up hurting me? will we end up hating each other? this always happens and it ruins everything. how can i stop focusing on it ending when it hasnt even begun?

Avoid those negative thoughts since all it is doing is ruining everything! Think postive! Be happy that someone likes you because other girls may not be as lucky as you :)

Hey im a 14/f and i am haveing boyfriend issues or obvi. ex boyfriend cuz he dumped me but we were going out for alomos a year. And he just dumped me in front of all his friend's. and it was very humileating. and it made me feel so bad. And now he is talking crap about me and calling me all this sh** And saying that i do drugs and stuff when we all no i dont so can you help ??

Immature boys do that and you're way better off without him, if you see what rude things he's capable of. Ignore the rumors, aslong as you know who you are and what you do, you'll be fine. He's doing this because he has no life and he wants to get you mad, so be the bigger person and dont let it get to you, whatever you do, dont stoop down to his level because then you are no better than him!

My best friend since 1st grade hates my b/f of one year. and vice versa. It's so bad that they literally can't be around each other for more then 5 seconds w/out getting in a big fight. My friend gets mad and wants me to dump him but my b/f is usually very sweet and I'm crazy about him. I hate that they fight and don't know what to do because sometimes he is at fault and other times it's her. I've basically stopped defending either of them and neither are happy about it but I'm so confused. My friend is strong and idependant so she never stops but my b/f is an idiot on this issue and doesn't listen when I tell him to back off. What do I do?!

Your friend shouldnt be telling you to break up with your boyfriend just because SHE doesnt like him. Since you are crazy about him and he's is sweet to you, then don't break up with him or anything along those lines. You need to explain to her that she is messing up your friendship each time she tells you these things because she's putting you in an uncomfortable position that you dont need to be in. A real friend should learn to let you be with who you want to be, and the only reason you should break up with him is because he treats you bad and stuff like that, and since he doesnt do that, there is no reason to break up with him, and make sure you tell your friend that you dont plan on doing that so she better stop telling you to. Good luck!

i have aim 6.0. it wont let me add certain screennames to my buddlylist, like my sisters screen name for example. i know i spelled it right and put the appropriate spaces, but whenever i add her it says its an invalide screen name. and when she trys to add me, the same thing happens. so i cant im her or anything. the same thing has happened with a couple different screen names. it lets me add certain ones, but not others. what could be the reasoning for this, and how can i fix it?

thanksss!

Well, when you say you put the appropriate space, that is probably why. Because you arent supposed to add screen names that have spaces, you need to add them all together and it will show up spaced on your buddy list. If that isnt it, then you should file a report or change AIM to a newer or older version.

Is it true that wearing a wired bra to bed stops your boobs from growing as much, and wearing a sports bra makes them have room to grow?

Nothing can stop your boobs from growing. If you want to sleep with a wired bra, then feel free. Except, it might be a little uncomfortable, if you ask me ;) But that statement isn't true!
