ok, i have 3 questions. so me and my boyfriend went to this horseback riding place and my horse went nuts haha. like all the trails connected back to the trail to go back to the ranch or whatever, but anyways we got to that part and were gunna go onto this different trail but my horse wasnt going when i was pulling on the right reign thing and kicking it, it just kept flinging its head all over the place up in the air. so the guide person came over with his horse and tried pulling on the reigns to get it to go but it didnt work. then the horse just started like charging back to the ranch and i was pulling on the reigns and it wouldnt stop and since it was flinging its head all around both reigns got flung on the right side, so i felt pretty much screwed and like i was going to fall off but then it kind of just stopped but was still crazy haha. my first question though, why did it do that and whyyy didnt it like buck me off? i was so scared it was going to do that by the way it was flinging its head. oh, and the guy who worked there knew i had only ridden a horse once, and gave me the only stallion that was apart of the ridable horses. i am a girl and weigh 123 pounds i just dont see y i would get that horse and not my boyfriend or even that horse at all. so 2nd question, why would he do that? and third question, lets say i had already bought a horse and needed to keep it at somebody elses ranch or where ever, how much would it cost a month for everything that a horse needs?

Trail horses can be dangerous like this because they don't have regular riders or regular/CORRECT TRAINING, and many of the trail riders are inexperienced. As a result, the horse may misbehave all the time and get away with it (because the riders don't know how to correct them). So over time, trail horses develop bad habits.
That was definitely a bad horse for trail purposes. The guy who thought that was ok.. ugh.. BAD choice!
lol.
Anyway, if you're sure that was a stallion, stallions are almost always tougher to handle than geldings or mares.
He could have been flinging his head either because he was very confused with what you were doing or his bit/bridle was uncomfortable..
I would have had to of seen it.. Luckily he didn't buck, rear or spook. But I'm guessing that over all, he was too excited (combined with not being trained well enough). His rush back to the barn happened because he simply wanted to get home. That's a very common bad habit with trail horses. He had no respect for you, so he didn't care when you were telling him to stop..
Next time, don't go to that trail place again (or at least choose your horse wisely!). haha
For the costs, they obviously vary; but it can be hundreds each month.

Ok, before I start, I'm almost 14 and I'm female.
Well, lately, I've gotten into a lot of fights with some of my friends. They keep saying they're gonna change, but the same stuff starts all over again (ex. Swearing, Negativity, Talking about People, etc.). Earlier this week, someone called me a liar for telling this one guy the truth about him, and both of them don't believe me. I also found out one of the girls who was supposed to be my best friend talked about me behind my back. My closest friend keeps telling me she'll get over her crush who's treated her friends kinda badly, but she just goes back to liking him again. The guy who called me a liar also told her that I was a bad friend who said bad things about her, but I would NEVER do that 'cause she's been an amazing friend to me. I'm at the point where I'm usually by myself and get called a "loner" 'cause I don't want to be around those people. I don't know what to do! I'd really appreciate the help! (link)

Well, even you can see that they have maturing to do. if you can, you should talk with them and try to fix things. However, if their actions are so repetitive, it's good to step back. If you're really sick of all of this, you shouldn't be afraid to be a loner. Good friends are ones that can be trusted. If it's not that way, then it's almost better to be alone.
Anyway, it would be refreshing for you to find new friends.
These things take time, because people change over time.. And it takes time to make new friends. So be patient, and keep trying your best to avoid their negativity (or even avoid them altogether). Don't let these old "friends" govern your social life and make you frustrated.

Things are just spriling out of control right now. I had a group of friends but two of them got into a fight, therefore one of them left to go to another group and the other one is now hanging out with just her boyfriend. The others are just there, but i dont feel as comfortable to hang out with them anymore. They are mostly with themselves now. That just leaves me! I don't have a lot of other friends, other then them. I just came to this High School hardly knowing anyone. What i need advice on is how can i make new friends to hang out at lunchtime and stuff? I am not popular at all..and frankly thats what its all about in high school unfortuntely. I feel so lonely and "lower on the social ladder". Its hard and i really need some advice. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you

I'm a loner in High School too..
Ugh get rid of the idea of a "social ladder".. There's really no ladder; just people who think they're better than others..
Anyway, it is awkward to go up to a group of strangers and just become friends. It doesn't work that way.. I think that friends happen over time. So, just continue what you're doing; be aware of the people in your classes, join in conversations.. Join clubs, do things you're interested in.. Do new things.
Also, you can focus on the people you see everyday but don't really know..
Everyone says this, but "being yourself" is very beneficial- so continue doing it!!

There is a couple of my boyfriends buddys that calls him baggins, whats that mean?

I'm guessing it's a reference to Bilbo Baggins, the hobbit in Lord of the Rings.

Suggesting that he is either short, has big harry feet.. Or any other Hobbit characteristics. Haahah

i thought that i was good friends with dani but she urged her best friend to sleep with my boyfriend. then lied to me about it and hangs out with my boyfriend and lies to me about that too. now, i find out that she talks bad about me behind my back to anyone that will listen. i dont even know what to say to these people. how should i handle this? i need to stick up for myself, i have spent WAY to many years being walked on. (link)

I would simply tell her how you felt about all of it. She might have an explanation, especially if you haven't really talked about it.
If you talk to her and there's no resolution, or continues to treat you with disrespect, then you should avoid her (and any other people who are treating you badly). You shouldn't have to "stick up" for yourself when it comes to friends; you should feel like you can trust them.
If trust isn't there, then why are you?
And, if your "friends" are doing things with your own boyfriend, don't forget that he may be at fault too.
