Q: 16/f

it's my boyfriend of 8 month's birthday on feb 1 he's turning 17 so he's getting his license.. what are some good ideas to get him not related to his car ( he's so into cars he's got about everything for it) like where are fun places we could go to spend his birthday just the two of us? and some good gifts since christmas just passed haha thankss!
birthdays + boyfriends=harrd haha

you could take him out on a classic dinner and a movie but youu pay for it.
or at your house or something make him a nice romantic dinner and then give him a reall sweet present such as a photoalbum of the past 8 months together...or...

buy a bunch of his favorite movies for his birthday then that night or another night just have dinner somewhere nice and then come back home and watch movies and eat popcorn together.
thats all i can really think of but i'm sure anything you do he'll love.

good luck;;hope i helped

Q: I took an IQ test a few minutes ago over the internet and my score was 125. I realize this is pretty good, but would it be more accurate (and higher) if I was 18+ ? I am only 15.
Um..well and IQ test is and IQ test so if its a real IQ test it should be accurate, and just raise when you 18+ because by then you will know more. But when 11 year olds take it and score a million on it (hah) its accurate. So I'm pretty sure it is accurate but when your 18 it'll probasbly be easier and possilby higher.

Q: I'm getting my tonsils out on February 15th. The day after that is a half day at my school, so I won't miss any school. Then I have the whole week off after that for winter break and I go back to school on February 26th. I think the doctor said it should be better by two weeks after they are removed, but he said my throat will still hurt for a few days after. The thing is, I'm in chorus and singing would just make it hurt worse. So what do I do about that? On the 28th my grade is going on a field trip and I really want to go, but I don't want to be uncomfortable. We've already payed and everything, so I'm going. Is there anything I can do while I'm there to relieve the pain in my throat so I'm not miserable for a whole week away from home?
I'm not sure if you can do anything to make your throat feel better but as for the field trip, just ask you teacher if you can still go because you don't wanna miss out on it at all. But then when you sing go sit in the audince or just stand on stage. I'm sure they'll let you go on the field trip. And if you try to sing that may make your throat hurt worse and take longer for it to feel better.

Hope I Helped

Q: 15/f. I have a conflict with my best friend, who is 14/f. First of all, I am not your average teenage girl: I'm artsy, I would like to become a professional musician, I've never had a boyfriend, and I don't consider shopping a hobby. My best friend is the typical prep. I don't have a problem with this at all. My problem is that she is always telling me that I need to get a boyfriend or a date to whatever formal, or that I need to be more like the average teenage girl. But this isn't what I want at all, and I am completely happy with myself at this point in my life because instead of concentrating on boys, I concentrate on what I love to do: music. So it seems as if my best friend is trying to control me. Lately, she's obsessed with having a boyfriend, no matter who it is. And that's her business, but she drags me into crap like that. I never give in to her controlling manner, but it gets freaking annoying to the point where I don't even want to be around her anymore. How can I tell her to not be so controlling, yet still keep our friendship? Thank you!
Well, if your best friends you two should be albe to tell eachother anything. But, when I had to tell my bff something i waited for her to get online because i'm soo much better at expression my emotions online than in person. So maybe you could send her and e-mail or Im of telling her how you really feel. Just tell her the truth, tell her not to tell you waht to do all the time and what you should do about your life. If you really are bffs you'll get through anything.

Q: Ok so there's this guy his name is Matt and i really like him but you see first of all i've never had a bf before except once and i moved away a week after we got together so i wouldnt consider him a bf but anyway i'm a 13 year old girl and this guys matt is in my grade (8th grade) and at the beginning of the school year i was sitting in my choir class and one of Matt's friends asked me if i would go out with Matt and i said no thinking they are joking or something so then a few days ago i was walking out of my choir class and these 2 guys corey and jeremy which are matt's friends and they ask me if i would go to the Valentines dance with Matt and so i told them i would get back to them and tell them my answer later though i never did cause i wanna know if they are joking so someone help are they joking or not???? and if you cant tell jsut any advice would be great please and thanks
Well it all depends on how their saying it and if they have that smerk in their eye and a giggle in their throat. But just ask one of them during lunch or something if their serious. Or say, if Matt really would like to ask me to the Valentines Dance then have him ask me or write a note. But if I were you I'd say yes. I mean whats the worst that can happen? And if people start saying you like Matt and hate that their saying that just be like oh well i thoght we were going as friends. I mean who knows maybe you two will end up going together but saying yes shouldn't have a bad effect at least not too big of one.

Good Luck

Q: My last grandma left has been smoking for a really really long time, AND I WANT HER TO STOP! I love my grandma soooooo much and I hysterically cry everytime I think of her dying of something she could have easily prevented. It's probably the only thing that can cause me to cry easily! Can anyone give me any ideas, any at all that I can use to convince my grandma to stop smoking! I tell her to stop but all she says is "oh i know" and when I tell her to use the patches and all that crap she says she tried. Please anything at all to make her stop stop!!
I have the same problem with my father..at first I hit him everytime I saw him smoking. And now when i see him smoking i cough a lot and pull my shirt over my face. But your grandma sounds like my dad just doesn't wanna stop, knows they should but just doesnt.

And its really hard to tell them how you feel too...but i would suggest maybe writing your grandmother a letter telling her how much she means to you, and how much you hate seeing her hurting herself, and seing her doing this toherself hurts you too. And just tell her you really want her to be there for you, just ask her to see someone to help her stop smoking. Or chew the gum, or even just have one cig. a day. Something to increase her life span. Just let her know how you feel.

Good Luck and I hope your grandma listens.

Q: 15/m/uk
right i get parranoid pretty easily but anyway this is sort of hard to explain but some one please give me the odds. basically yesterday me and my girl freind were goin to have sex we put the condom on and so on about 5 mins later i cheked to see if the condom was on it wasnt so i stopped immediatly NO CHANCES right anyway today my girl freind starts sayin she isnt feeling very well and her stomach hurts. so when i got home i had a search on the internet and things like that they said that precum can mae a girl pregnant. can some one please just give me a hand and tell me the odds if shes pregnan or not and what do i do if she is becuase i cannot let my parents or hers find out because my mum and dad would disown me. by the way im not a man whore or anything like that i had sex with my girl freind becuase we have had an amazing relationship and i love her . if any one could give me a hand on this i would be truly grateful
Well it depends..but if the sperm can in contact with the vagina a little bit theres a good chance she could be pregant...but if just a little bit of sperm was on her vagina and she takes birth contorl then that lessens the odds. but no one one here can tell you yes, or no she is or isn't pregnant. just wait. have her take a preg. test. and don't allow her to drink, do too much phyical activity or smoke in case she is preg.

But just try and stay clam untill you know for 100% she is preg. and if she is just stay with her through the whole thing, its going to be 10 times harder on her than you. so just tell her you love her and you'll always be ther for her.

Hope I helped and good luck with the future.

Q: Here's the thing I am 13 gonna be 14 in a month. Me and my brother are 15 months apart. he is 15. My parents let him do whatever he wants. I on the other hand don't get to do anything! I can't go anywhere with anyone anytime. And it has been this way for ever.
My parents insist they have to Know ( meaning have seen and talked to) the parent of my friend(s). On the other hand my brother can leave and only say Im going to my friends house I'll be back maybe tomorrow. My parents know my brother drinks and smokes weed. I on the other hand only smoke cigarettes, and they know this. It doesn't make any sense!

What do you think about the situation.
Well there are many reasons why...

If you the youngest and female thats a big part of it because your their baby. And you can get hurt alot more than your brother can. Because many your parnets think you'll get raped or pregnant or something like that. But usually parents don't worry about that stuff with guys.

Also, maybe you parents realized your brother didn't turn out the way they were hopoing and they don't want you to drink and smoke weed. So their trying to watch you and make sure they know where you are at all times so you don't ruin your life.

Who knows though there are many reason but then again their parents so who know what the hell their thinkin. lol

Q: last night i had some friends over and one of them took my fone and text my ex saying "i love you" now i dunno if he got it or not because he never answered but how am i supposed to explain that to him? he's not gonna believe that someone else wrote it, hes rather cocky and still thinks i have feelings for him, which i kinda do but thats besides the point. What should i do?
Well if he hasn't mentioned anything I would just leave it alone..and if he's cocky and your ex just ingore him even more don't look at him in the hall or anything.

Or you could just tell him hey (your friends name) took my phone..sorry for the txt but don't make a big deal out of it or he will

Q: Hey well I'm really skinney but I've been snacking a lot this year and now, "I have a stomache". of course eevryone does but like you get what I mean like I have a flat one? Well now I have like a belly sticking out and I don't know what to do. I tried doing sit ups and crunches but like I can't because I can't bend up somehow. Are there other ways or maybe I need a specific working area? Because I wear nice tight dresses for parties I attend to and I don't want a fat belly to stick out
Do a combination of running, sit ups, and eating healty..try and stay off the junk food lol

but if you don't burn the fat in time to wear a dress there are like undergarmens that you can wear that will help flatten and make your whole middle look alot flatter.

Q: my dad always blames stuff on me. like he'll blame be if he cant find a shirt saying that i lost it. or its my fault the laundry is on top of the dryer. and i made a mess of the kitchen - when all i ever do is clean up after a house full of slobs. one time he told me it was all my fault that it was RAINING. and that i ruined the day. my dad is crazy. serouisly everything is MY fault when 3/4 of the time it isnt!
what should i do!
hmm..well that hard. But I suggest trying to stay out of his way maybe? Or going to friends houses or trying to stay out of the house or only in your room? that's the best advie i have sorry if that doesn't help

Q: hey,
15/f So say your in a bathing sutie.... if you are hot and have a "hot body" do guys care if you are fair skinned? like....pale? Does that mean that you cant be hot? Guys answer please!
It all depends on what the guy thinks. I mean for example I may think that really pale skin and dark hair on a guy is hot while my friend thinks really tan guys with blonde hair is hot. Its all about what the guy personally thinks is "hottt"

Q: Is it possible to be raped by:
Same person
Same group of people
Person from the group that raped you

More than once, twice, or even multiple times?

Is it common or rare? Especially for teens in 10th grade to 12th grade?
Yes, if the girl doesn't tell anyone and no one knows these people are doing to her then they can rape her numerous times.

And then I think it's rare..but I'm not sure that just what I think.

Q: do you guys prefer myspace or facebook better. I have a myspace, but I always hear people talking about facebook, but i think its stupid to be addicted to 2 websites you know (not litterally addicted, but have to login everyday)

so my question is do you guys prefer myspace or facebook? (I'd appreciate it if people tried both) and why do you prefer myspace or facebook?
I lovvvve facebook! I'm like addicted to it! Because you can have photoalbums and its much safer. Its not as slow as myspace. You can search for people based on intrsents. It tell you when people are going out or break up. I think facebook is amazing.

Q: How come people write double 'and' symbols? And why? example: peaches && cream. What's with the '&&' ??

thanks. I know this must sound stupid!
I do that alot because i just think it looks better. I usually put call&&txt and i think that looks better than call&txt.

Its just kinda what you perfer more.

Q: i work really really hard and listen in class, do all my homework. i already talked to my teachers and everything but i can't help it, i can never do better than a B or a C in some classes!!!!!

im just stupid... idk how i will ever get into a good college with grades like that i don't know what to do!

he says B's are F's and I will get grounded

i don't know what to do I have to be smarter if I am going to survive my house and make it in life because my dad won't listen to me, I CANNOT TALK TO HIM HE WILL NOT LISTEN, and I already ahve a tutor for like everything and talked to my eachers

15/f
Um well hmm..i don't know if this will help but maybe a conslor can help you?

Idk if that'll help you but i hope you helped you a little bit?

Q: please help me. I don't know what to do anymore! ok. here's the deal. My best friend has been like "doing things". Today she called me and said that last night she peirced her nose (BY HERSELF). I was SO shocked and started to think I shouldn't hang out with her anymore. She went close to s*x but didn't. And she ALWAYS says that she's fat but she isn't. One day she told me she threw up her food but only once. Should I still hang out with her?

ps. I DON'T (OR DIDN'T) DO ANYTHING SHE DOES (OR DID)
Noo don't bail on her now. She needs you the most right now. Try and help her get back on the right path becuse if you leave her she'll go hang out with other people who do worse stuff than what shes doing and we don't want that to happen. So I think you should still be bbfs and just try and help her get back on the right path. But to me it does'nt sounds like to too bad or anything..yet..so just help keep her "good"

lol hope i helped

Q: Do girl prefer it when a guy doesn't show his boxers..or does (but not in that oh-my-god-half my-arse-is-hanging-out way). and do girls prefer designer or not *-).
i think its cute if a guy shows a little boxer like when he bends over you see a lil or puts his hand in the air..but not too much boxer

and to me i don't really care weather if designer or not i just kinda like the tight boxers.

hope i helped

Q: Hey do you know any colleges that are easy to get into in new york or california

Hope I helped

Q: So about 4 months ago i "met" this guy while i was on holiday, the only words we exchanged were hello, we met through a mutual friend.. but the attraction was instant. A few days later i left but he managed to get my msn adr. and we have been speakin ever since i am very shy when it comes to speakin to guys face to face but he is the exact oposite, he keeps telling me how much he likes me and how he wishes i would go back, and that we will get together. Thing is i will be going back in a few weeks and i just dont know how to act when i see him and im worried he will get a diferent impresion when we see each other face to face. So any advice would be good.
Thanx! :)
Just be 100% you and true to yourself and if he still isn't attracted to that then he's retarted. hah

hope i helped
