How do I ask this guy that I really like who I talk to a lot in school to hang out? I think he suspects that I like him a little but I just want to hang out with him.

Okay the easiest way to ask him to hang out is to see if he wants to stay after school to watch one of your school sports or something. To me it's the easiest way to ask a guy to hang. Let me know how it goes!!


good luck

There's this guy who goes to my school, and over Christmas break he started messaging me on MySpace saying he thought I was pretty and asking who I liked and that kind of thing. I told him my friend liked him, so I couldn't like him, and said it would be better to be friends. He agreed, and we haven't really talked since. Now, I think I'm beginning to like him, and I don't know what to do since I declined him better. What do I do?

Message him back and just talk to him like your friends. Maybe sometime he'll get the clue and ask you who you like again.



good luck!

I'm 5'8, 158 pounds, 15 years old, not active at all.

On this coming monday, im starting a diet which will hopefully help me lose 1 or 2 pounds a week, but I need to know if it will work. Here is my daily plan:

Breakfast: Honey bunches of oats cereal, 1% Milk
Lunch: Fruit salad, water
Supper: Anything my mom makes (healthy)

I will also be running on the treadmill for about 20 minutes at 4m/h. I've sort of been using the calorie-counting method.

Anyways, will I lose weight with this, or is it a waste of time? What can I change?

I think that would be a good diet to lose weight but to also help what i do is sometimes go for a walk after dinner to burn it all off. I dont go every day but just every now and than. Good luck!!

I'm sick of wearing my hair the same all the time; down and ponytails.
I need new easy simple qiuck to do hairstyles.
Sites are helpful.

Also if any of you watch the show Friends then you probably know what I am talking about. Jennifer Aniston sometimes does this cute hairstyle where her hair is down but the front is clipped to the back.
I know how to do that but I see on other people it looks twisted. I don't know how to explain it but it's super cute.
Any one know how to do it?

I dont know any sites but you could scrunch your hair. If you go to the store, there's a scrunching product that really works. It's called Garnier Fruictice and it's in a green tall skinny tube. Hope it works out for ya!

tonight im hanging out with this kid and its not really a date but its like our first time hanging out & we like eachother i guess you could say... i dont want to be likee over dressy but i dont want to be under dressed either, what should i wear? my style is basically preppy and its cold outside and i have no idea what we are doing lol thanks!

I think you should wear your hair down, and tight lik abercrombie pants and a really cute shirt of yours. But dont look lik your saying "look at me!" but just enough to get him to "know."

I'm in high school and my group or friends are really close to each other. So, when one person tells another about something, they run off and tell someone else and then it finally gets around to our whole "group." It always happens, with everything and everyone. And of course whoever told the first person gets upset because they did not want their "secret" or whatever to get out to everyone else.


We go through these arguments about once a week, no joke. We're all guys and girls between the ages of 16-18. We can't just stop telling each other stuff, that doesn't work. EVERYONE has a big mouth.


Any advice?

all of my advice i have for you is either ditch them if you fight TATH MUCH, or to never tell your secrets to any of your friends (which is reallly hard) sorry that you guys fight so much.

okay.. if someone was pregnant and within the first couple of weeks of being pregnant fell down the steps or something and had a miscarriage, would the baby/fetus still have to be removed? ill rate 5s.

First of all, sorry to hear about that. My neighbor just had a mis carrage and its hard to gothrough. but The baby might still be too small to be taken out. If it is, than they give you a pill or something and it eventually comes out on its own (if you know what I mean.) I might be wrong but i hope i helped!

Well this is my first time babysitting by myself w/ younger kids. I have done a little 6 year old with my friend, but now i have a 2 year old girl and a 4 year old boy. Im sorta nervous b/c i just saw when a stranger calls! lol. So my question is: is there anything i need to know before i go? How much to charge, emergencies, cautions, questions to ask the parents? ill rate! thanks so much!

I'm 13 and I've been babysitting since I was 9. The #1 thing to know is how to say no to them. You dont want them running around doing everything they want and have the parents come home to a messy house. The other thing is dont give them sugar close to bed time (it always ends up bad.) The last thing is to have fun unmessy activities for them to do and have them read a book or watch a relaxing video before bedtime.

good luck and remember When A Stranger Calls is just a movie

Ok, this may sound wierd but...I don't love my family. Yea...it's true. I find it so hard to realate and connect with them. We rarely communicate outside of yelling and complaining. I do want a family that I can come home to every day and feel comfortable with but...I don't think they're going to change. How do I make us closer? (13/f)

Make a daten with your parents to go out to dinner or bowling or something. i mean my parents can be annoying to me but not enough to where i don't love them .You should get closer to them, hun.

kay.. so theres this guy i really like and ive liked him for a long time. over the weekend somebody told me that he liked me so i got excited about that but then my friends and the guy i like told me that he likes my other friend. plus, pretty much every guy i like always likes her and same with everyone else so it hurts even more. also, he knows i like him so its not as fun talking anymore. so what should i do? i dont no..

My brilliant answer to my fricken beautiful friend is that you should maybe move on, hun. I mean deffinintly keep him as a crush but don't be crushed cuz he likes her. I mean, girrlie, your holding up really great with this whole he likes her thing. And it'll pass soon cuz she doesnt like him (hehe.) Wish you my luck, babe! Hang in there, hun. lylas




aww huni. It's okay you can move on when ever you feel like moving on!! I'm here for you lyl.

okay stright to the point! im 14/f
my brother has done some pretty bad things to me! he hasnt all the way raped me! but done enough to bother me and it depress me! i also have a bad home life with like my dad.. i've talk to a close teacher about it. he got me to talk to the conslor..which made me talk to the school social worker! i hated tlaking to her! i told my teacher who i was close with that i didnt want to ever talk to her again! he promised me he wouldnt make me do anything i didnt want to! well the other day i was updating him because he told me to when ever i needed to! i told him i rather not have him tell the conslor so i wouldnt have to talk to the socail woker! he sad he wouldnt! but he ended up tellin anyways!.. so then i had to sit in a room with the social worker again!! after he told i made me feel so bad.. ike i dont want to hate him! he was the only one i could trust! so after school i went up to him and said why did you tell! he said he had to! so i looked at him and walked away1 he didnt bother to say anything else!
and now im confused. now i dont know if i can trust him or if he even cares about this! please someone what do i do now???

sounds lik you got it bad. Well you should tell a relative. You could tell the cops but they would just put you in a foster home or somthin and that's not a good thing. Tell a family member and maybe things could go better for you. I wish you all of my luck,

i was recently raped and im scared. the guy who raped me..was my bedt friends boyfriend (shes 14 hes 15 turning 16) and im scared. i have nightmares about it and im afraid to go to sleep..i keep getting calls that have perverted breathing for like 15 seconds then he hangs up i havent told anyone..and im SCARED!! he threatend to kill me and my family..what should i do??

omg, hun! You REALLLY need to tell someone. I know it's embaressing but it's true! You're family could sue him and he could go to jail so he won't touch (or kill) your family. This is a serious deal. Or if your to scared to tell your family, than you should get counsiling or something to help relaxe you. And it might even help to tell your boyfriend. Maybe he could talk to his friend, but you really need to tell someone other than the people on the web. I hope this works out for! I wish you all of my luck.

so, a random question bout sex. i was just wondering, since statistics show that the average teen loses their virginity by the age of 17. well.. is it possible to have sex (when the guy uses a condom) and NOT get pregnant? cuz like, other teens have done it and they havent got pregnant riight? but what im scared of is that my sister had an unplanned pregnancy and she already had a baby. she said she used a condom and i guessed it broke.

questions:
is it common for a condom to break?
can a girl get pregant if a guy uses a condom?

thanks in advance.

Some people can get pregnantif their using a condom, but the chances are that you wont. if you are scared of getting pregnant, my advice is just to not have sex! it is only like 99% that you wont get pregnant, so rarely you will get pregnant, but like your sister..it IS possible to get pregnant.

me and this guy tyler are really close.. we're pretty much already going out. we just haven't made it official yet (he hasn't asked me!). i'm tired of waiting forever for him to ask me. do you think that i should just go ahead and ask him myself? if so, what do i say?
thanks

dont ask a boy out. Girls dont ask boys out, sry how it works but its true. You could ask him to go to the school's basketball game or somthin, but dont ask him out.

I babysit my niece and nephew once a week and when I do they won't listen to a word I say what do I do?

it's called a time out chair. I have 10 younger cousins under the age of 6 that i babysit for (not at one time) and they never listen. So show them the time out chair. I put it in a corner and tell them if they're bad, this is where they go. So my cousin, Ben, 5, wouldnt listen once. So i gave him a warning, than he kept not listening so i put him in the time out chair. I set the timmer for 5 minutes and when it was up i asked him if he knew why i put him there. It works allll the time. But put the timmer by their age, lik 3- 4 min. 5- 6 min. 7- 10 min. and stuff like that. I really hope this works cuz i know it can be a pain. I wish you all my luck.

Hi. I am 14. My mom is VERY hard to work with. I have talked about shaving before, and she says "Why honey? Who do you need to impress?" I dont want to impress anyone I just want to shave. Well, if you can help me try and talk her into it or something. THANKS~

Okay don't try my idea if your mom is strict at following her rules. okay? good, so i'm 13 and you REALLY have to start shaving, hun. It's a hassle i have to say, but your 14 and you shuld get started. Well what i did was just shaved.I'm not a bad person, i disobeyed my mom, but she was okay after i told her how EVERYONE shaves and not me. I'm the harry legged chick!! lol, but i hope this works for you.

hey.. im having alot of trouble with my exe. he doesn't get off my back! his brother encouraged him to hate me and make all of his friends (my former friends) and alot of other people to get the wrong idea of me, after i dumped him.

what can i do just so that i can go ot school normally without those annoying people and their attitude against me. i mean, i know that i shouldn't care and that they aren't good friends and stuff, but this is my reputation im talkin about! im in real crisis, help if u can.

~ thanx.. *

Make upstuff lik a combak to say to ppl when they mention it. It'll help and if you make up a funny joke about what they said than they could just laugh with you. But the worst thing is turning people on him. Than that means war. So don't get too far with joking and your combaks. Hope it works hun! wish you all my luck!

Someone who sits next to me in one of my classes ONLY talks about herself. ALWAYS! She'll ask how I am and stuff, and even if I say "Not so good.." she'll say "Oh my gosh! I was crying all last night because Andrew (bf) said he can't trust me and idk what to do." It annoys me so much. And it's all dramatic stuff. One day she's bragging about her huge basket of valentine candy and the next she has red eyes from crying all night.

She came in class one day and said "Omg someone told me to leave and I asked why and they said because I always bring drama to the group and I don't!" How do I deal with this?

ha, it sounds like one of my friends (seriously)It got reallly annoying so i know wat your goin through. Just ignore her. Seriously it works. Or act lik your not listening and maybe she'll stop. Hang in there, hun!!
