advice

i have a friend who i really seriously think i love.i've never felt quite this way about any other guy before.he's my best friend and he says he doesnt like me that way but sometimes it seems like he does.we flirt and talk all the time and he's always there for me.i just dont understand.he got hurt really bad because some girl broke his heart.this happened about a year or so ago and he never sees her anymore because she goes to another school.i think he's just afraid of going out with me because he doesnt want us to have something happen and break up and then never be the same friends we were before we started going out.im not sure tho.please help me out with what i should do.thank u.

~*~confused~*~

Okay, this is probably the advice you really don't want to here, but I'll tell it to you anyway.

I've seen this with my friends constantly and just in general. You never date your bestfriends. Because, you never know if something does go badly (which, you can't say won't happen) and you do "break up" and say that you guys will still be friends. It usually happens that you never talk to one another.

Now, maybe you and your friend might have a special bond, and you doubt that that will happen. But I will suggest that you talk to him... as a friend that you do have "feelings" and you just want his imput on the matter.

okay, well i have a black dad and a white mom.. well i dont have white hair and i dont have black hair either.. but its frizzy. it looks REALLY pretty when its straightened, but when you dont put special stuff on it, it looks bad.. anyway, is there any special straightening stuff that you guys know of to put on my hair?

Well, I have naturally straight hair, but I know my friend's uses the John Freida DeFrizz collection and it works wonders on their hair.

My friend keeps flirting with my boyfriend and that's why he keeps dumping me. She's in Special Education. She's not really a friend but I associate her because she's in my group of friends.

Honesty.
Tell your friend that what she's doing is not only wrong because you guys are "friends" but you don't appreciate it.

I'm 5' tall, 125 lbs, 34 yrs old, 34D. Short and plump. I wear big shirts and tight jeans to hide this. I really want to dress for my age as well as my body type. Any suggestions or pictures of outfits???

With dresses - You can add inches to your height be adding a head-to-toe ruffle (in dresses) and it will create a n illusion of length. But don't make the ruffle too like "showy" otherwise it's takes away from your body. Also, a long fitter, soild-color dress will work the most, you don't want excessive floral/flowery/busy prints that just attract the eyes to your stomach and make you look bigger than you already are.

Clothes in general that are 1-2 colors, not that many will work and fitted clothes so your body won't cling to them.

In addition, wear tops that are longth length, I'm sure you've seen all those "bohemian" tops that are all the rage right now, those really add to increase your torso length.

AVOID very full skirts because they add to your stomach and basically increase the look of your waist size and overpower your frame.

Halter tops will add to your body and enhance them very nicly.


Also, don't wear the latest trends of the "clam diggers" or mid-way capris that go to your knee caps.

i told my boyfreind if he is not going to be there for this second child then get out i already have a two year old boy with him and my feeling for him have changed i care for him i am starting ti think i don't love him any more is that a normal thing to go through while you are pregnanat

You know, to be completely honest, if the father of your first child and one you're bearing, is not supportive or you have the little INCH of feeling that he's going to not be there for your kids, please, for the sake of your 2 children, dump the fucking shit now.

It's better for you because you won't have to deal with him and, you know what, it's better for your current child and soon to be. I don't think you would want your kids growing up with a "father" who shows up whenever he freaking wants to, and just leaves you with your children in the cold without a goodbye or without knowing when he'll come back.


I'm not sure if this is what happens when you're pregnant, but that doesn't matter. TRUST YOUR GUT FEELING, you konw about how a girl has intuition, you have to follow it.


Any slightest feeling he will leave you/won't be there, deal with it now.
You don't want that to run too late, and hurt you, or even POSSIBLY your children.

okay im 13/f and i meet this person through a friend...i like him a lot ut my friend said he doesnt like me like that ......i ahvent really talk to him about it........he thinks i will just make out wiht him them dump him.......i did that to one of his friends but i changed.....i dont kno how to get that through to him....i really like him and i want him to like me .....a lot of people like me and hott guys to but like i dont want any body but him......does any body have anygood ideas to where me adn him can meet up in like a group or somethign!!!

First thing, get to be friends and don't immediatly give the impression that you want to hook up or anything like that.

Hopefually, you have friend's who are friends with them, and just go see a movie together or go to the mall, anything that's just relaxing and you could just chill and hang out.

He'll get to know a little about you, and you'll get to know more about him. :)

Hi, I want to be able to put a playlist in my xanga, but I don't know how. I want one like in this girl's xanga:

http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=WickedPink478

Does anyone know a website that I can go to, to get one of these playlists? Thanks in advance.

x3 Erin

I probably shouldn't be answering this, but this is what I usually do, most people are really nice and if you ask them how they got their layout/codes like that, they will respond. :)


Go leave a comment, and I'm sure they'll get back to you.


Also, you could just goggle "music playlist in xanga" or something like that.
There are bunches of html code sites out there!

i have a best friend that keeps liking the same guy i do!!! and then when i go out with that guy and i really really like he she takes him from me!!! i was going out with this guy for almost 3 monthes going on 4 and she said to him that she thinks its a great idea for them to go out and instead of me and him going out soo he thought about it and he said oh what the hell and did!!! soo they only went out behind my bak for 3 weeks at least or i hope thats as long as they went out!! well my parents and her parents are like best friends and she always has to come over and i dont want her to at all!!! but there is nothing i can do i told my parents and their like well just put up with her just tonight over and over again!!! ok then she lies to much and gets me in trouble!!! then she thinks she is sooo much better than me in vball and she didnt even make it last year!!! so im just soo god damn tired of her!!! she will never leave me alone i tell her i hate her but she starts buying me things to suck up to me for what ever she has done!! which makes me even more angry!!! waht am i suppose to do?! i mean i have tryed everything but its not working!!!

Tell your parents what you really feel (again) and that it really bothers you a lot. If they have any concern for you, they will listen to you.


If not, go directly to your friend and tell her the truth. With this post thing, I sopposed you really don't want to be her friend, nor do you care about what she feels...

Actually, I have a better idea. Sit both her, your parents, and her parents in a room and tell them what you feel.

Why did I add her parents, because if you start bitching to her, she might go to HER parents and make up even more lies/crap about you.


Don't take "no" for an answer, and just let it all out in the open. You deserve to say what's on your mind and to tell others, that they're basically pissing you off. :)

I am going on a field trip tomorrow with my fellow freshman classmates and I'm a bit self concious about something. You see, we are going to a theme Park (Dorney Park... It's in NJ. Sort of like 6 Flags) anyway, they have a water park and I am going to be wearing a bikini. I'm a bit self concious about my back. I have a few pimples on my back- not big ones but they are very red and noticeable. My hair since it is long covers up a few of the pimples but I'm still a little nervous about going out in public like that. I've always been covered. I've tried a few acne medications on my back and nothing seems to work. Does anyone have a way of covering them more or helping me so that I am not as self concious about it? Any help would be appreciated.

This is way to late, but I'll comment just to tell you.
I'm sure everyone there was having too much of a blast to even WORRY about you or think "OMG, your back." blahblahblah.


But if this is not the case, for future reference, I suggest that you just Neutrogena Body Scrub because it really exfloiates and clears up your skin with those little beads and makes it all soft and nice.

Also, I would even consider using acne medicine on your back, (but first, I would go see a doctor). I know friends who have tried it and it was successful.

So any acne medicine (Clean&Clear) or whatever brand you like would work. :)

Anyone know any healthy ways to loose weight in 3 months? I'll rate anyone with good tips. Thanks!

Probably the best thing I've ever signed up to do is YOGA. Many people think it's like a pussy thing to do, but let me tell you, I've lost so much and kept it off since I was in middle school. And you know what, if you do it regularly with your friends you not only have a FUN ASS TIME, but hell, you and your friends will be looking HOT!

Personally, I do it 5 days a week for 1-2 hours. Being consistant is the key and obviously, as a newbie, you want to start of slowly and then build up your endurance.

It's truly amazing, and I swear my body to it. You get an amazing workout for maybe just 30 minutes and you def lose calories and tone up your body!! :)

My younger sister who's eleven has an amazing voice for her age and I really want her to be discovered! Her birthday's coming up in July and I think that if I found a way for her to get noticed it would be a great birthday present. Can anyone help me find a way to help her be discovered?

Really find out if she's good.
I know this might sound like bitchy or whatever, but you really don't want to break her heart if she goes auditions for some major thing, and they blunty say that she sucks.

I was told that I had an amazing voice, and my parents didn't believe it. So, like, I'm not sure where you're from, but in NJ, there are "Regional Chorus" things for like the northern region and stuff, and it's basically this choir that you audition for, you have to sing a preselected song for you, and do some scales, and if you're good, you will be selected to be on the choir.

There are these in NJ for 7th up to 12th grade, and I've been doing it ever since. If your school has a chorus teacher, ask them to find out if your state offers this program.

*This, however, only happens once a year.



But, what you could do now, is to go hire a voice coach, and help her train her voice and enhance it more with better breathing techniques and everything. It will really help your sister's voice improve while going through puberty, and teach her how to since properly like with your diaphram and stuff.

I'm switching schools next year so I won't be going back. I want to admit to my guy friend that I have feelings for him. I like him alot but I know he likes another girl & she knows that. If I tell him how I feel, do you think things will be weird this summer if he rejects, since I planned on hanging out with him as friends anyways?

Let me tell you the most obvious answer.
Honesty works.
It saves you from being all "crushing" and you know, if he does have feelings for you, you'll be glad you did.

Also, I'm sure that things won't be awkward at all because if he does "reject" you or wants to be friends, you'll have even more time to get over a "crush" and move on. You know?

ok so theres this guy. hes like 3 yrs older than me nd he asked me out ((i said no)), nd he still hits on me, flirts ALL the time, always tells me how hot i m nd wants me to send him pics of me! now i kno hes not like a COMPLETE freak cause hes my bbf's bro! but my bf is like really jealous, i feel bad nd hes freakin me out. also, his parents told him not to talk to me cause i told my bbf he was freakin me out, but he still does. i dont want his family to think bad of me for talking to him since its my bbf! this is like pmo so please help!!!

Best advice I can give.
Tell your bbf's brother (that guy who likes you) the truth. I mean, it's not like you're dissing him in anyway because you do have a boyfriend.
Say that you're very flattered, but you probably (This is my opinion) wouldn't even go out with him because he IS your bbf's brother, and you wouldn't want to ruin your friendship, IF anything bad did happen between you too.

Also, tell your boyfriend this, so he knows that you are SET ON HIM, not that guy. It will show that you are honest and trustworthy. :)

I'm a 16 year old female..I am 5'2 weighing 105 pounds. People say I'm thin...what they don't know is I have 3 layers of fat on my tummy..I often find myself "sucking in" all day. What can I do? Everyone always says crunches..but they're not helping. Please give some detailed advice and tell me what to do..tell me how to do it. Thanks so much-I need to get abs in 2 weeks! Yikes!

Crunches help tone your body, they don't help you lose weight.

The best thing I've ever done, and still continue to do is YOGA. Maybe people believe that it's a "pussy" workout or whatever, but it seriously is so hardcore. I burn so many calories in just 30 minutes and if you do it with your friends on a daily basis, not only will you have SO MUCH FUN, but you'll look hot! lol.

Thirteen/ Female.
I want to be an author, is there an age requirement to be one? Also how can I publish my book?
Thanks,
~K.C~

That's great.
There is absolutely no age requirement to be an author.
On Oprah there was like a 1st grader who wrote poetry and got amazing acclaims by the NEW YORK TIMES on his work.

In order to publish your work, you need to send your full story/novel, or even your roughdraft to one of the many company's who will set you up with possible clients. They will read what you've given them and say if they're interested or not.

Give this process time.
There were MANY famous writers who got rejected 239847 times before they wrote their acclaimed story.

Last year I dyed my hair black and i've kept it black since then. I am now trying to get my hair back to a more natural color: dark brown-light brown. I tried Herbal Essences Dye.. It was called Iced Bronze or something like that.
It just dyed my roots brown and make the black in my hair a really odd color.

If anyone knows a good brand and/or color of dye that will completely cover black, let me know!!
Thanks a BUNCH!

Let me say, don't screw with your hair without a professional doing it.
I know from my friend's experience, she tried to dye her hair bleach blonde, and ended up effing her hair up so badly, that she lost half of her hair "volume." Like, it practically fell out.

Be safe, spend some "extra" money and obviously the results will be guarenteed to work.

ok well on june 17 it is my sister party. they r taking communion and i need some help i need to find a hair style that i can give the salon to put it in. does anyone have a website that i can has pictures of different hair styles. i have brown hair with red and blonde highlights and my hair is 3 inches past my shoulders.thanks.
*~Stephanie~*

I don't really think you need to find a picture to copy it. I say you go earlier to your hair stylist and ask them what they think would look the absolute best on you because, hell they have a lot of experience and they should know what looks best with what type of face frame, hair color etc.

The obvious trend this year is BOLD and DARING!! Don't be hesitant to chop your hair off in layers, or even to dye your hair. Whatever happens, it will look hot!

I have long blonde hair and i usually just wear my hair down or in a messy bun. but over the summer, i wanna try something different. are there any hair style suggestions that you guys could give me?
thanks! ill rate good!

I'm not sure if you changed your hair since me posting this.
But, you know what, if you're beach bound, and wanting to look like a bombshell, I say you freaking layer your hair to an insane amount and maybe get bangs.

My mom's best friend is a hair stylist in NYC and she always keeps me up on the latest trends (yes, even hair trends). "Longish" bangs are so in right now, and if you are to keep your hair blonde, make it like bleech blonde (obviously, if you don't want to damage it) keep it the same.

If so, a great way to lighten your hair is to squeeze lemon juice on it before you go out in the sun and just let the sun "heat" up and absorb your hair.

It really works, and you'll have hot hair in NO time!

I want to do this pageant, but I don't Know how to ask my mother and father. I've never really been into pageants, I've always been more into acting and singing. I think it would give me more self confidence. But now that I'm turning 15 I started to like all that pageant modeling stuff. I just dont know how to ask them and to let me go. Also what are some tips that I should know. I've never done this before. They also want to do an interview, so does anybody know what type of questions they ask? It said no past experience is necessary, but I would appreciate some tips and things to remember because I don't want to mess up. Also, Im a little self concience (sorry about the spelling!) I have bad eczema ( pronounced eggsema ) and It's always been an issue for me. Do you think that doing this pageant will give me more self confidence or make my self concienciousness ( again sorry about the spelling ) worse? Thank you!

I've done quite a lot of pagents and you know, I think it's one of the best things I've ever done. I've met so many girls from doing it, and you know, it's not even really about getting trophies and stuff, but it really allows a girl to "know" herself.

When I started doing them as a confidence boaster, I was so awkward, and just trying out and talking in the public really allowed me to, well... TALK.

I'm sure if you tell this to your parents openly, they will understand completely.

If not, I would definately like to email your parents and explain to them how great pagent-y is for teenagers.
