My cousin asked me to play on his team in softball this year for the 4th of July (traditional event). I said yes. Then my cousin told me that my crush was going to be on the same team. I thought this might be a really good chance to talk to him. Do you have any pointers? Ice breakers? Anything that can mean us talking like friends?

Well, I agree with CalamityStrike. But don't think of him as a crush just think of him as a new friend. It'll make the conversation you know, more comfertable.

Well, ok. I'm 16 and I've been dating an AMAZING guy for 6 months. I am so in love. Well my mom knows this and she knows we want to have sex so she bought us condoms and stuff and then when we told her we did it, she got pissed off and hid the rest of them...

We talked to her about safe and responsible sex (yes I know there is no such thing as 100% safe sex i dont want to hear it.) and she seemed to be open about the idea and then all the sudden she went psycho and wont let me stay at my boyfriends house anymore. He spends weeks at a time over here and she doesnt mind us sleeping in the same room, but I cant stay over there. It is upsetting for me and my boyfriend because I used to stay the night over there all the time. Can anyone tell me why my mom is like this all the sudden? She used to be so cool and then she just changed in the blink of an eye...

Hun, let me say this. Moms can act as cool as they want but in the end, they will be over protective at some point. I guess she is just not ready to let you go. My mom is like that too, very over protective, but she can be cool. Tell her that you know how you feel about him. And that you love your mom no matter what. She just probably thinks of you as her little girl. And she's not ready for that yet...Take care hun.

basically i suck at holding a conversation. whenever i talk to someone, i come up short for things to talk about. and when i do talk, its usually about something boring lol. so what im asking is for advice on how to create conversation and keep it going so im not boring. thank you!

Well, umm you can talk about things you both like. You can make things exciting. Tell jokes. Tell them what you saw on t.v or anything, don't just THINK of what to say. Just say what you feel at that moment. Hope I helped.

Well wen i was 10 i was raped and all of my friends know well one of my friends told me that she wants 2 get raped(she's a virgin)just so she doesn't have 2 be the only virgin in our cliqué and so she stays on her myspace talking 2 perves im scared 4 her she says on monday she is going 2 meet somebody and im scared she is going 2 get raped and that the person is going 2 kill her so i need advice fast before i might not ever see her again

Okay, Number one, She is deffinatly going overboard. It's not RAPE if she wants it. Two she need to quit being on myspace cause she does NOT know who is on the OTHER side of that computer. You need to tell her how you felt when you were raped. You need to tell her about the horror the tagedy, and tell her if she meets someone, that she met though a computer, she might not ever come back. Be straight up with her. Don't give her that little child act. You need to be for real and honest or else she just won't get it...

15/f + boyfriend 17/m -

okay well him and his parents (mom and dad) are going to ocean city the 15th-22nd and they invited me. they're paying for everything. the thing is my dad said it was okay, but mom didn't. i need sooo much help to convince her it's okay. i wrote her a letter stating we wouldn't be sleeping together/all the requirements! i need so much help please. i want to go so unbeliveably badly.

any advice?!

Well, first keep trying to convince your mom. Show her how much it really means to you. If that doesn't work, then since your dad approves, ask HIM to help convince your mom. Hope it works out!

is it weird when the girl is taller than the guy in a relationship?

Of course not. it shouldn't matter how tall she is. If you like her go for it

15/f- Its really long but if you would take the time, I would really really appreciate your help.

Okay I have 2 best friends, shelby and christa. Well shelby recently got a boyfriend, and all of a sudden started acting very distant to me and christa. She never hung out with us anymore, and barely talked to us at school. She was trying to change herself to fit in with her bf's friends. Well Then she started telling people that me and christa abandoned her and that we were mad and jealous that she has a bf. We never said anything to her. So then we heard it from more people, so we asked her about it, if she said it. She denied it, and got mad at us and walked away. We let it go. Then my friend found a note from her to her bf that said " I dont know what is up with HER (meaning me) lately. If she doesnt knock it off quick, Im not gonna talk to her at all at homecoming because I dont want my night to be ruined by HER". So then I called her and asked her about it. Now Im not a mean person at all. Im too nice at times. Well I must have said "Now Im not trying to attack you or be mean, I just wanna talk" fifteen times, and she was like "Oh I know" She made up some lame excuse, and I was like whatever, so then we talked for about an hour like normal about our day and whatnot. The next morning she came up to Christa and I and hugged us to make sure we were okay. Well afterschool a friend came up and said "shelby said you called her and yelled and bitched her out for an hour and then she cried after you got off the phone" I was so angry, and I was tempted just to not talk to her anymore, but I gave it one more chance. I went up to her before lunch at her locker and asked her why she was saying that, and that she knew very well it wasnt true. I was being wayy too nice. She wouldnt look at me, she kept her eyes on her locker and was like "yeah... whatever.. sure" while I was talking, so then she was like "IM DONE okay? IM DONE WITH YOU" and just kept saying it, and I walked off, and then she went and told her bf that it was the otherway around. So then she comes up to me like 1 or 2 days later and says I was being a bitch the otherday, I dont know what was up. Blah. And I just said yeah I agree and walked away, then she wrote me a 3 page note and the first page was an apology finally. Im the forgive and forget type, but I dont really wanna forgive exactly, but she sits at our lunch table now, but everyone is like "why are you talking to her, she doesnt deserve your time"

Should I forgive her after all she did?
Am I right about this whole thing?
Should I talk to her still?
What should I do?

I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can give

Well if I were you I would talk to her. There is no harm in giving a couple of more chances. I mean hey this IS what mostiy happens when your friend has a bf.

I want to do something special for each of my parents. They do so much for me so I want to show them how much I care. So what should I do? Nothing that costs a lot...Like Breakfast in bed is a good idea, but 1. I have school and 2. They wake up before me...any ideas???

How about a special dinner. A family dinner. Make something that they like alot and after that sing for them. Like something that says I love you(in a parent way of course)!! It worked for me. She actually cried of joy.

Well you really don't have to say it like that. Try to talk to him with her in the conversation you know brag about her, make her seem more important to him as she is to you.

Today was the first day of school (wa hoo) and in my tech class there is this really cute guy and i was wondering how to get his attention without really being to obvios like in his face kinda thing thanks =D I rate high =p

I think you should start a conversation. Walk by him with your friends, laugh with your friends. Well it works for me anyway. try to be adorable but kinda pretend he isn't there when of course you know he is :-)

Last night I had just witnessed a death. it made me real sad. It was my grannie. she has played a HUGE role in my life. I stood there and watched her die. I All I do is cry now. What can i do to stop

I think it is better you let your feelings out. You should cry to take your emotions out of your system. So cry all you want. And if you need to talk to anybody just leave it in my inbox. Okay, don't worry everything will be okay. I'm here for you I PROMISE!

hey my friend is 15 years old and she is having a baby what should i do to help and what should she do

First of all from the way it feels you are very nervous, so what you need to do is relax. Tell to relax that everything is going to be alright cause you will right by her side. Just be ther for her cause what she need is comfort from a loyal friend.

I just started my Sophmore year of highschool. From the begining of Freshman year 'til now, I've lost MANY friends for stupid reasons. Mainly because I got into a fight with one girl that I was best friends with and then she got all of her friends to hate me too. Which was about 15 people. How nice right?


Anyway, I have a reputation of being a bitch. Because.. Well, I CAN be. But I'm really not when you get to know me.



I really want to try to change my reputation on being a bitch, I want to show people that I AM a good person and attempt to make new friends. But I really need help on changing my reputation. Any ideas?

Listen you don't have to prove anything to anybody. If they don't accept who you are than thats their problem.

p.s. don't worry at least you got one friend...ME
