Hi,
My baby rabbit just died from a heart problem :'( We knew she was gonna die because she was very ill, but we got her anyway because we wanted to give her the best life we could because we knew it would be short!! So, we got another rabbit with her. Now our baby rabbit has died, the other is soo lonley!! My mum wants another rabbit to keep her company but I'm not sure, I don't think I'm ready to have another one in her place just like that. Am I being selfish by not wanting another rabbit even though the other one is lonley? What should I do? (link)

Heyyy! You aren't being selfish, you are just greiving over the loss of a pet. Well, this is just my opinio, but rabbits love comapny and since your not an adult yet and your in school it is going to need someone there with it. Take your time getting over your loss it is a really sad thing; I know I have been through it numerous times and it never gets any better or easier. If rabbits are anything like birds then they can die from depression of beign alone. That does happen to birds if they are alone they will stop eating and eventually die. I don't know if rabbits have the same problem but just to be safe get another one but take your time. In the meantime spend more quality time with it, hodl it more, when you aren't home turn a raido on for it so it at least hears a voice. This is going to sound really weird but I do it for my cat... My cat always sleeps next to the phone so I call and leave a message on my ansering machine and I swear hearing my voice makes him happier lol. Good Luck!

Thanks

Well your probably sending like mixed signals. Maybe she thinks that you guys still are best friends. It'd be wicked harsh to just drop her but make it clear that you don't want her around I mean you can't be best friends with someone you hate... You made it sound like she moved on and is now friends with the other girl so encourage her to hang out with her more instead of you. There really isn't an easy way I think she'd be hurt either way. Sorry... I'm sure if you keep askign someone will help you out.

I don't know who I need to talk to about this. I'm just looking for someone to try and help me make sense of my situation. See, I've always dreamed of being famous. Being an actress or singer and making millions. Being as popular as Britney Spears was and all that. But, the problem is I like in a small town and inside, I know that it is so unlikely I am going to ever have the chance to be famous. I;m in local plays and musicals, but I get small roles. I don't have a good singing voice either. But, every day I dream and think about this. Does everybody want to be famous ? Or do you think i should pursue this dream, that i think about this a lot for a reason? help! (link)
| |
OK to answer specifically your questions... yes, a lot of people want to be famous. However. if you don't pursue it it'll never happen and since your from a small town you will have to work harder. it is a lot of work. Good luck!

I want to get a doggie this spring! I want a small doggie that I can spend time with. Easy to train, and it likes to play and spend time with me. any ideas? (link)

This isn't a very small dog but it is only about 25 pounds (at least mine is 25 and he's overweight) It is called a Shiba Inu a semi rare Japanese breed. They tend to like one person more then everyone else and most likely if you spend the most time with it it'll like you the most. They are sooo cute! They were breeded for years until they got one that looked liek a teddy bear! Look at an image on google: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/0b/250px-Fm_shiba_inu_puppy.jpg

Ok, So last night (Saturday night) I met this girl (17 bout 4 months younger than me) and we talked, kissed, etc, Then she left and I got her phone number. Well, It's Valentines Day Tonight at midnight, and I was wondering if it would be too soon to ring her at midnight to wish her a happy Valentine? Or should I wait until morning? Any advice within the next 2 hours would be much appreciated! Btw I am 17/m

Awww that is really really sweet! OK well.. I wouldn't call her house phone becuase you might wake others in her family up and she might have younger siblings but if you have her cell phone I say go for it. If she turned her cell phone off at least you can leave her a voice mail and when she checks it the next time she'll hear it and feel really special! That is really sweet though Great Idea!!!

i have got brown patches on the bottom of my feets and my dotcor dont know what it is (link)

You doctor doesn't knwo what it is!?? That is really bad. Your doctor should reccomend you to a new doctor. Your doctor doesn't sound too smart she should have you referred to a new one; if she doesn't it is your responsibility to find one.

I am really depressed. I just feel like every one thing that is good in my life, there are three bad things. In other words, the pros outweigh the cons. I really need help, but don't want to ask my mom to go to a shrink. So, I'm waiting for someone to notice. I don't want to cut myself, but it's the only way for people to notice. So, I just take a pin and scratch myself so that it will make slight cut marks on my wrists. I know it's stupid, but I just need help beyond my stupid friends' advice.
I hate these bribe things, but I do rate high, if that will help you to answer me. (link)

Go to you school conselor. A lot of my friends go to them just for fun and to get out of classes so you can just start going. If you start going just to tlak it might come out sooner or later or the conselor will realize it and get you some help. Then you can pretend that you didn't really want to go. I know how you feel I don't tlak to my mkm either and I just wait for people to notice I am sad.

I have more of a comment then a question right now...I look at this site as a great way to make new friends and to get helpful advice so i can see what im doing wrong in my life and how i can improve it....I love asking questions and getting feedback but what i dont like is opening up answers and seeing rude remarks and dumb comments....Thats really not helpful and in some cases it makes me feel lower then i was before i asked the question...Im sure im not the only one who feels this way but i think this needs to stop...If you think its funny to make fun of peoples personal problems then go make fun of your own because you obviously have them if you feel you can say some of the things that i have seen said to people....Im open for any feedback but please i ask that this comment not be deleted because im trying to get a message out about how i feel and if you delete this then you are just as bad as those who leave rude remarks...Thanks alot...Xo~CaReBeAr~oX (link)

The level 2 moderators are going to say this same thing to you... they understand how you feel and they can't get rid of them unless they liek use obscene language or something. I psoted a /comment/ like this about a week ago becuase I fele the same way. They all told me the same thing. They said that since I posted the question the peopel are going to want to do it more b/c they do it for attention. I think however if enough people say this then they can be banned like they should. I'll tell you this before everyoen else... if you have a complaint post it wherever you post the complaints. I guarantee people will tell you the same thing and give you a link to leave your complaint. I fele the same way!!! Good Luck!

LOL, me and my friend are going "clubbin'" this weekend and on friday were gonna go shopping for it. Were like 16 yrs old and going to a place where people 16 and older are allowed. We have absolutely NO IDEA what to wear or what other people wear to go "clubbin'" what should we wear and what stores can we find them in? (link)
| |
Tello's has "clubbin"(lol) clothes. When you go to a club you don't wear like normal clothes you wanna be liek a bit wilder. Tello's have it for really cheap/ FOr exmaple instead of wearign jeans and t shirt to go "clubbin" you would wear like jeans and a flashy shirt.

Recently, I've thought about trying to learn the guitar. I don't really know anything about guitars but I also play the clarinet. Does knowing how to read that kind of music help in reading guitar music? And is it really hard to learn it when first starting out? (link)
| |
Yea, if you already know how to read music it'll be a lot easier to understand it. It can be kind of hard starting out it depends what kind of person you are. If you really try and practice a lot I'm sure it's a lot like playing the clarinet. Buena Suerte!

does anyone no any really good books. My mom wants me to get into reading (i hate reading) so i need a good book thatti wont hate to read!
anything will do! thanks a lot! (link)
| |
It'd really help if we knew your age or some of your interestd. Well, assuming your a teenager and a girl (lol cuz a moajority of the questiodn asked are from girls) I would suggest the Princess Diaries series. They aren't really long or hard to read. Or steven King alwayssss keeps you wanting more. Plus his books are really scary. If you really hate reading so much then maybe you don't want to dive right into novels. Read Seventenn or YM or a magazine that might help you like reading more.

i'm 13(male). my brother is 10(male).
i've shared a room with him since the day he was born. when i was 7 or 8, we switched to bunk-beds. the ladder up to the top is prety much the only place of privacy i have, other than the bathroom. my family isn't the richest in the world, but we're in a pretty good financial situation compared to others (my mom is a college professer, my dad is a newswriter). my question is, am i selfish for asking for my own room. we've been searching for about a year give or take, and have been outbid in 3 situations so far. currently we're in the midst of bidding.
sometimes i do feel selfish, because my parents are slightly older, and i feel that i'm taking away too much of their retirement funds. (this isn't exactly all for me, the neighborhood we're in now is pretty bad for them, for ex: my view from my room is at my neighbors dark green pool, 10 feet away, and theirs noise pollution from the other side from a stupid bird, which drives my parents nuts.) so am i asking for too much? (link)
| |
Wow you seem really mature to consider not asking due to taking away from their retirement funds. That's really sweet. First off, no it's not being selfish. Do you have other sibling other then your brother? If they have their own rooms then yuo deserve one too. You say your in the midst of a bidding... so then maybe you might want to wait to see if yopu get the house. Let your parents know that you want your own room. They might think you liek sharing with your brother so you hyave to tell them so they'll take it into consideration while looking for houses. Good Luck!

I am getting sorta tired of the way everyone is so rude on here! There was this girl who was pregnant and scared and crying and this guy came along and told her to shut up! Whats with everyone? When someones mother dies you dont say "Stop complaining bitch" thats absolutely digusting! So my question is...why do some people on here be complete assholes when there are people who need serious answers and have serious questions?!?!? (link)
| |
I know how you feel. I posted a question simialr to thi sabout a week ago. The administrators told me the same thing everyone will tell you. They want attention and they can't ban these people unless they do something like.. offensive I think it was or something. I think this is offensive and these people should be banned cuz thi scould cause a serious problem or someone might do somethign really bad. It's nice to know other peopel feel the same way.

Im 13 years old. A lot of the other girls have boy friends and all but ofcourse i dont. ive never even had a first kiss or went on a date with a boy. Its not like im ugly because im not really. i just dont know...it just feels like that time is never going to come??.. (link)
| |
It will I think it's better to wait to be with someone you really like. Don't just go out in depseration becuase it's really not fair to you or the other person. It will come though sooner or later I mean you can't die not being kissed yet I've never heard of that.

hey! i wanna get my cartilage pierced. i know that straight guys are supposed to get their ears done on the left side. are straight girls supposed to get it on the left side too? thanks! (link)
| |
Well, just to be safe get it done on the left. If that will make you feel more comfortable. I've never hear of a girl getting picked on because of that but I have seen boys. I don't have my cartilage pierced but if I did I would get it done on the left just incase.

My heart has been broken by my best male friend
but i still love him...should i still be friends with him or wat? (link)
| |
Stay friends with him!! I mena if he's your best guy friend and you love him things may never be the same between you guys but you can st4ill be friends. Maybe you'll have a relationship in the future or his attitude towards you might change, for the better. Hey one of my exes is one of my best friends, JARED!!! Lol well we get along great and I love him too but not in that way... he's like my brother. But i have no clue what I would do without him maybe the same thign will happend with you.

i was laying on my bed and out of nowhere..my left leg started to have a really sharp pain and i can't walk right now. it's right at the back of my leg right below my knee. what could of happened? i played 10 hrs. of volleyball today - could that be the cause? (link)
| |
It probably was, I have never heard of someone playing 10 hours straight of volleyball... I would think you would pass out. It happens to me a lot My muscle seems to tighten I think it's called a muscle spasm but I went to the doctor for it and they just said to strecth it more... If it happens again call your doctor but if it's only a one tiem thing I wouldn't worry about it.

Tonight I have to babysit for two twin girls who are 5. I cant keep them busy and in my control. Can anybody give me some pointers?
(link)
| |
Lol I babysat my 5 year old twin cousins yesterday, Mercedes and Alexus, and they get bored easily and are veryyy hyper. I understand why your concerned. Before they can get into trouble you have to keep them out of it. If you can ask there parents what there favorite games are beforehand. if it's too late then ask when you get over there if there are any games around the house they would like to play. I know one thing that ALL 5 year old girls love.... Dolls especially Barbies! lol tell me if im rong. Every little girl loves dolls and playin house. If you can bring coloring books and toys but if you can't I am sure they have lots of dolls around the house. Start a playing house or something. But don't let them get bored and keep them in the same room so you know what they're doing at all times.

I have a problem with my clothes. I don't mind the way I dress or anything...I just feel I need to change something..add more style to me. I usually wear jeans, skateboarding shoes, hoodies and fitted tees/layeredtees, what can I ADD to this to make my clothes more......exciting? Lots of tips would be great, and I'll rate you a 5 no matter what. (link)
| |
Lol, yea I am like that. I usually always wear a pair of my jeans and just change the tops. Well you don't wanna totally make a random change cuz people might think it's weird. Stay true to your personality and your choice of clothes but accessorize. Like I have different purses, clutches, belts, head bands, and jewelery for the mood I am in or to match my clothes. Get diffwerent kinds of jeans. Jeans that fade, light ones, dark ones, ones with cool belts. I don't liek going over the top my jeans basically soem of them have sparkles on the tops, some look worn in like have a variety. And liek I said accessorize. I dont know if your a purse person I am though and I have a different one for liek everday of the month. If your not stick to the jewelery (necklaces and braceltes) You can buy really cheap cool ones at liek Salvation Army don't be embarassed to go int here. I have foudn great vintage jewelery in there and none of my friends will go near the store! lol Good Luck!
