okay well im 16, female. and theres this guy that i really really like, unforetunately i have a boyfriend right now, but im defintaly thinking of breaking up with him...for the guy i like. the guy i like is a "ladies man" though. he flirts with every girl, and it makes me mad, he tells me im the only girl he really has feelings for though, so i believe him..but he gave me his myspace password to fix it up and stuff,..but me being nosey and all i had to look at his inbox and it said stuff to girls like some of the stuff he tells me about how i sohuldnt be jealous of anyone cause im the only one who could ever dream about caring about, and stuff like that. so i talked to him about it..but i didnt say like i saw your myspace i was just like i hate the fact that you treat all the girls the way you treat me..and then he said "well i cant help it that i am the way i am
i cant just change my personality" and that was that...but im not sure if can trust him..ive been cheated on before and it wasnt fun, it hurt like hell. and i just dont wanna get hurt again..help!! (link)
i wish i could help you more!! Some guys are like that & it's a pain for girls. But I think the only thing to do is forget about him. I know its hard, but unless you want to be cheated on again. Why don't you stay friends, atleast until (if he ever) changes his ways.

Sorry!


I have a decently well habit of studying. I pay attention in school, get A's and B's on the notes and homework assignments I do. I pass with class participation as well. But every time I take a test or quiz my mind goes totally blank. Like at that time every thing that I learned that I was needed to know for the test or quiz is gone. I try so hard to get the memory back, but it fails. So I end up failing the test or quiz. What I don't get is why this is happening. However, I do have a high anxiety and stress problem so it could be partly from that.

Any suggestions, tips, or information to help me do better on tests in this situation?

And please do not say something like "I don't know; go to a Doctor or Psychologist" because that's not what I am looking for.

Thank you very much in advance! (link)
When I was in 6th and 7th grade, I had this problem. I used pneumonic devices. Like when we were learning the great lakes, I used HOMES (Huron, Ontorio, Michigan, Erie, Superior). I kept in my head all day and then as soon as I got the test I unloaded it by writing in the margin (if your teacher strict about scribbles, erase it before you hand it in). If you only know some of the information, answer the questions you know and skip the ones you don't (you can always go back). That way you don't get a F cause you stuck on one problem instead of getting C cause you skipped it and answered others. Also, answer the questions with the largest point value (such as essay) first.


Hope this helps


her name is claire. i've been very good friends with her for three years now, but we've known each other since third grade. up until freshman year, she attended a private school but we knew each other outside of school through our parents, who are friends (they are how we met originally). in private school, claire tells me that she had only one friend who was not even reliable, spent most of her time studying and hardly ever went out with friends. so basically she had no life. she came to my public school freshman year, where we immediately hit it off. my friends and i accepted her into our little “circle of friends” and everything was fine. ever since then, she got rid of her glasses and got contacts, she now doesn't have a dress code anymore so now she wears pretty clothing, etc etc. she's honestly one of the most beautiful girls in our school. she dated one guy for almost 6 months and then broke up with him during the summer entering into sophomore year. my problem starts here, at the beginning of sophomore year. we had grown inseparable, but the one thing that always upset me about her was that she flirted too much, and said she would never do things past second base, but ended up doing them anyways (even with random guys). i always told myself that she was making up for all those years in middle school when she had no life. then through playing soccer she met this guy named paul. just like every other guy in the school, paul fell for her. he's very, very quiet, keeps to himself and doesn't flirt much with any girls. paul knew claire and i are the best of friends, so i guess he sort of be-friended me in order to find out information about claire, or so some of his friends tell me. he started talking to me on AIM and then in person and soon we got really close. i started to develop a crush for him, and i told claire, but she still had no idea paul liked her. a few months later, after i became fed up with her flirting, i realized i REALLY liked him, and i told claire that paul had always liked her, even though i swore to paul i never would. he still doesn't know that she knows, even now. anyways, i told her how she always really upset me, unintentionally of course, when she flirted with him and such. she was surprised and she told me she didn't realize she was doing it, and i believe her. she said she would stop doing it, and it did stop for awhile. but now it's like it's happening all over again, and i don't know what to say. i try so hard not to get jealous because know the last thing she wants to do is hurt me, but i can't help feeling a little jealous. i'm really, really in love with him. we talk every day, about touchy subjects and about nothing, and i consider him to be one of my best guy friends. i think about him during most of the day, even though it's awful because i don't have any classes with him. they have classes together and i see them walk up and down the hallway all the time and it makes me want to cry. a lot of times she's hooking up with different guys and crap like that, and i look at him and just want to cry because she doesn't love him like i do. i love this boy so much, and i can't tell if he has an idea or not. sometimes we'll have days where he goes past me in the hallway without a hello, and it just tears me up inside. i really can't help feeling jealous, though i've tried. i tried talking to her, and even though it worked for awhile, she's doing it again. what do you think i should do? should i talk to her about it AGAIN? please help. (link)
ok, i think you should tell her how you feel about him. Don't ask for her permission (cause its pretty obvious what she'll say), just tell her your going to tell him so she knows. Then, tell him how you feel. The worst he can say is he want's to stay friends, so the worst has nothing lost. Hope I could be of some help


okay so theres this boy lets call him bob, well bob lives in arizona and i know him from my friend jessica because hes her aunts cousin and he comes out to where i live once a year. so me and bob talk online and he says things like, im hot and he comments my myspace pictures saying their his favorite and stuff, and he calls me sexy and he says were soul mates (pre destined for eachother), and he tells me he saves my pictures onto his computer. and he says he thinks about me. do you think hes just joking and trying to be funny or do you think hes for real and likes me. because when i said i didnt get the soul mates thing he said he was just kidding so now im like all confused. do you think he just said the soul mates thing because it was true and then once i didnt get it he got all embarrased and took it back, or was he actually joking you think? if someone could just help me out and tell me what you think i'd appriciate it. thankss abunch =) (link)
well, i would have to say that he probally likes you but has more courage writing it one way (without you responding). Next time he visits you, talk with him. Tell him you like him (if you do) and want to know if he feels the same. Be serious and chances are he will too. That should, hopefully, clear things up. Hope I helped

(link)
if he asks you, you don't have to say no. say "sure, let's go as friends." if he says he wants to be more, tell him that your friendship is so important and that you would like to continue being friends. You can still be friends with him, without hurting me.

hope i helped


What is blue tooth? What makes it so neat, like what kinds of things can it do? I have a phone that has a blue tooth like-its motorola. What can i do with it? How much does it cost? (link)
blue tooth is a shot distance (about ten feet) wireless technology. You may be able to purchase BlueTooth wireless headsets that work with your pgone. It can transfer data quickly. Bluetooth devices normally connect and can talk with each other seemlessly


How do you get rid of underground pimples?
I already know how to get rid of normal ones. (link)
This is called adult acne. Try vitam C foaming wash. It works good and doesn't cost alot. I got this idea from a site from google.
Hope it helps & maybe works for you.



So i moved far away from home last year and i liked this guy at my school alot and i didnt want to tell him that i liked him until i got to know him better and then my friend told him that i liked him because he was switching schools and im a really shy person and he lived in my neighborhood and whenever i saw him i would go away and i was too scared to talk to him. After that he started hating me and now hes gone because he was only here for one year. Now i miss him alot and i tried apologizing in a letter (for acting so stupid) and i told him i wanted to be friends but he's barely ever online so my friend told me i should email him and just ask him how he's doing and stuff. So i dont know what i should say. Im not even sure if i should email him or not because he might still hate me. So do you think i should email him? and if i do what should i say?helppp!! thxx!! (link)
Tell him that you are really sorry.
Maybe something like this:

I'm sorry that you didn't hear the truth from me. I liked you and didn't have the courage myself. I value your friendship so much, and hope that we can remain friends.

Hope I helped.


okay well my best friend told me that anotheror one of my frinds sisters is well....a prostatute.
i didnt believe it at first but i assure u its tre, shees about 17 and dropped out of college after a year and well she workes in a a local mall, but shees a prostatute aswell, now i really dont want tohurt my friends feelings but i want to tell him aswell so he can sort it out so do i tell him or not? (link)
tell him. he has a right to know. If his sister gets mad know, don't sweat it. In 20 years, looking back on her life, that sister will be happy she was helped. Better he hear it from you than the hospital when she has been hurt or a police officer when she gets in trouble.

Hope I helped


a) I stil have a ways to go and I wouldn't consider myself to young to look for college but i do know that i would like to do something in the medical field and if possible that has to do with kids. Like a pediatrician for example. If you any idea's of colleges like you could help me find a good college in the upper midwest that'd be helpful, also any careers you can think of that has to do with kids, and in a medical field.

b) Whats the difference between a university and college?


Thanks so much! (link)

^^maybe the site above will help yu find the answer to B.

For the answer to A, Medical College of Wisconsin is one i could find with pediatrics.

There are many hospitals in the midwest that are children's hospital. They only treat kids and, from what I hear, pay well and treat their staff nicely.

I'm 16 and i lost my virginity to my boyfriend of 3yrs. it was just 3 days ago. we didn't use protection i'm worried i could be pregnant. i wouldn't have done it if i didn't love him. but his phones been cut off. He has a cell phone but hasn't called or anything. Should i be worried or relax?

WHAT SHOULD I DO???


(link)
Well, i wouldn't sweat it if he loves you. But I take about two pregnancy tests to be sure. If you find one is positive, go to a doctor just to be sure. Then, talk to the father. After that, tell your parents. After you do, let them cool off. Then deal with the consequences. Sorry, i couldn't be of more help.


okay this is going to be freaking huge haha.

well, i'm in a class that does video announcements from school. and my best friend is in that class, which is a great awesome thing. anyway, her and i, and another girl are in the same group. so my friend has this thing, where (to me) it seems like she acts like she knows everything about anything. and when i give an opinion about stuff, its either shot down or she gives me a reason why it won't work, or why we can't do it. i understand that. but its the way she says it, like im stupid or something. so sometimes i just kinda sit there..i don't look mad or sad or happy or anything, its just a blah kind of state. she tells me to do stuff and then i'll try and do it and she ends up taking over because she doesn't have the patience. and then i feel bad because she makes it seem like its so bad that i don't do everything exactly right or exactly the way she wants me to. and today, she made a big deal about how she was the only person who edited our last piece like if we made her do all the work. which isn't true, she hardly ever gave us the chance to do anything. all we really did was give an opinion on something, and i researched the information. and also, if i do say something she'll say "don't get all mad"..which is so annoying because i'm not mad!!! i just wanna figure out how to do stuff without her breathing down my back and telling me what to do. im not trying to be a control freak or anything, but i do want a say in some of the stuff we do. and then when i do give a good idea, she doesn't say oh good idea or tell me anything nice, she just acts like its a big pain to her. i don't get it. but i love that girl to death, outside of class its so much different we have so much fun all the time no matter what. its just inside class she acts different. and she's really disrespectful towards our teacher, which i hate. i try and show as much respect for him as possible, but when she acts rude towards him, he lectures our whole group. i've been lectured enough in my life, so i try and avoid it.

if i tryed to tell her how she's acting, or tell her to quit, she'll just turn around and start telling me stuff that i'm doing too and that she's not the only one being "mean" or whatever she wants to call it. i hate it, i don't know how to talk to her at all about this whole thing. and honestly i'm scared, because i don't like arguing with people, i don't like when they get mad or offended, and i hate the whole "shut up" look. drives me insane.

any advice on how to deal with this all would be SO appreciated. (link)
try talking to her when your not in video announcement class. Don't raise your voice even if she does and try to be rational. Don't yell or accuse her of anything. Just tell her that sometimes you feel hurt when she doesn't give your ideas a chance. If this doesnt work than try being really nice to her in video announcement class. If none of these ideas work, maybe you should find another friend. I know that sounds super harsh but a friend who is mean to you constantly might not be the kind of best friend. I'm not saying you can't be friends but maybe it would be best to find another friend to hang out with in video announcement.
Another idea: ask your teacher if he could move you to another grouo and not tell your friend that you asked him. You said that she is rude to your teacher, so chance is he notices her behavior. That way you can tell your friend your teacher made you change groups. That way you get to hang out with yur friend when she's nice-and not when she's not! hope i helped.


okay well i weigh about 150 pounds.
and i rly want to lose weight.
do you think if iran about a mile
everyday i would lose about 50 pounds by nxt year doing some other things too.
and would i lose it all over like my arms, legs, stomach and such and if not what are some ways i could tone them especially my arms like theyre flabby. please help i want to be skinny.
thanks in advanced. (link)
i went through this same thing. There are some great workout tapes you can do that involve working with 5 pound weights (arms), crunches and things like that ( stomach), and lower body (butt and legs). I would suggest the workout tapes with Gin Miller and the "step" (which comes with the video). It gets you in shape and you notice it quickly. Also, (this was always a big plus for me) you could eat whatever you wanted! hope this helped.


13/f there is this guy we will call him "Fred". At a party I went to my friend found out that Fred liked me. My friend is really good friends with Fred, but I am not. My friend asked me if i would go out with Fred. I replyed that I would like to get to know him better before we went out. He felt rejected, and interperted it as me saying, get away from me you freak," but thats not how i meant it. I know he is going to ask me out, and i really do want to get to know him, who knows maybe i'll satrt liking him. He does not have a screename and doesn't pick up his cell. He is in one of my classes, and i don't want to talk to him in front of a lot of people, what can i do to get to know him better and convince him that I really do want to get to know him and i wasn' just saying that to get him away. Any tips aprreciated. Thanks (link)
I understand your situation. It's hard to talk to people in school with a lot of people around. Have a talk with him. Tell him that you are sorry he misinterupreted (is that how that's spelled??) you, but that you would truthly like to make plans to hang out-just casual at first. Then make plans for a day and time you would defintely be able to make. If it's right after soccer pracitice or half an hour before your favorite tv show comes out, it might not be a good idea to schedule to meet him then. A good time to hang out might be a weekend when you have no plans. The worst thing would be for you to accidently miss hanging out with him and then he might think that you really dont like him. Always remember to return his calls and make plans again. Hope I helped.


i honestly don't have any friends. i've been battleing depression for a while now & i finally feel that i'm stable enough to have a social life. how do i get closer to my old friends. how do i make new ones? i don't talk to anyone & i'm so jealous of all the close friendships around me. ideas? (link)
it's hard to make really good friends, but i'm not saying it's impossible. Maybe yu should join clubs or a sports team, that way you have an excuse to socialize. Also try mustering up your courage and talking to other girls or seem like they could use a friend. Try confronting your old friends, too. Give a heart-to-heart honest apology. Tell them that your sorry and if they are really good friends and love you than they will accept your apology.
