Over the last few days I haven't been really hungry, even when I barely ate that day. Like yesterday I had a really small sandwich in the morning and I wasn't hungry til waay later. And today I haven't really eatten anything and I wasn't hungry but I ate dinner cause I know its bad to not eat. But is there something wrong that I haven't been hungry? Or could it be that I'm just realizing I want to lose weight (which i do) or what? 13/f (link)
since u mentioned that you want to loose weight i think its just in your head that your not hungry. you should really try to eat your three meals a day atleast even if you think ur not hungry. remember, if you want to lose weight starving yourself is not the answer. there are plenty of healthy diets you can go on and excersise also greatly helps.


whne is the right age to start wearing makeup?? (link)
theres not really a 'right' age but i guess i started when i was in 7th grade. each grade ull prob start wearing more. like in 7th grade i pretty much only wore eye liner and lip gloss and since then ive added. a lot of girls start whenever their parents let them.


I straighten my hair with a flat iron at night, but when I sleep on it and wake up in the morning it looks greasy. I don't have time to do it in the mornings i already wake up early enough... any suggestions?? thanks! (link)
try using less conditioner in the shower


a girl in my grade named anne, whom i know (I am friendly with her, but not really friends) told a friend of mine (elle) about these pants, and then elle told me about them. i went to the store & i really like the pants. they are very distinct jeans with flowers all over them. i really want them, but anne has them already. would it be bad for me to get these jeans? anne isn't in any of my classes, and she's a nice girl, but i still don't know if it's okay (I AM NOT GOING TO ASK HER). i see her on occasion at the end of the day. these aren't just any pants, they are very cool with flowers down the leg & on the butt. do you think anne would get mad? do you think elle would be like "you bought those pants after i told you where they are from & anne already has them!" do you think anyone would be mad or do you think it's okay to buy the pants? THEY ARE SO COOL! (link)
i honestly dont like buying clothes that i know people already have, but thats just me. however, if someone i know buys the same pants i have, i wouldnt care. the pants r cute and i think you should buy them if you really like them. dont be afraid of anne or anyone else getting mad because your entitled to do what you want.


Please only answer this question if you're not mean or a smart aleck, and you're mature. Thanks!

Anyway, I have a friend that I've known for many years. Her parents are going through a divorce. I know she's hurt, and I want to be there for her, but here's the catch.

I've noticed that we're growing apart. She hasn't talked to me for a long time, except for the few times we've talked on AIM, and I started all of those conversations. She hasn't tried talking to me at all, and we haven't talked about the situation, even though she knows that I know about it (She wasn't the one who told me about it). It's been weeks since I've been aware of this.

At first I wanted to give her time, which I have, since I haven't said anything to her about the situation. Now, I'm fed up.
I'm sick of us not talking. She has made no attempt to talk to me, even casually. Like I said, all AIM conversations were started by me. I want to help her, but I can't if she won't say anything to me about it. I just wouldn't feel right starting up a conversation about it because I'm unsure if she is ready to talk about it.

What also irritates me is the fact that we've been friends for so long, and yet she (like I've said) hasn't tried asking for my advice or anything. I feel like I'm not a good friend; like she doesn't feel that she can open up to me because she's embarrassed (or for whatever reason), even though I don't know if that's the case. What I'm saying is that she should know that she can come to me, talk to me and ask for advice, and not be embarrassed.

It makes me sad that I can't be there for my friend, and that she's not talking to me. What should I do? Please help. Thanks so much! (link)
its obvious that shes upset about the divorce, and i think thats just the cause of all of this. since she wont talk to you, you should surprise her with something. for example, go to her house early on a saturday or sunday morning while shes still sleeping and kidnapp her and take her out to breakfast. that would be a lot of fun to cheer her up and also at breakfast you can try talking to her about the divorce and also about how u feel about your friendship. hope this idea helps youu


Me and my boyfriend i guess were fooling around and he started to finger me.. I guess i didnt feel a whole bunch of pain but i took a shower a little later then later had my period.. or what i thought..

Why did i bleed for a little bit?

Did he pop my cherry??

Can u even get your "cherry" popped from fingering? (link)
its possible he did because you can get your cherry popped from fingering or inserting a tampon too.


i don't really know what i'm asking specifically..i just need general advice. i just started dating my current boyfriend. it's been a little over two weeks. i'm just wondering..for all of you with boyfriends..how long did you wait before you kissed him and how long have you been together so far..and for those who don't..how long did you wait before you kissed your last boyfriend..and how long were you together? i just don't know how long i want to wait. don't tell me to wait until i'm ready or want to..because i am going to do that. its just my ex left me with some trust issues..though i do trust my boyfriend..and i don't want a redo of my last relationship..which was way too physical. so your input will just help me a ton.

thank you so much. (link)
i have a bf, well be going out for a year in less then a month, and we first kissed only a couple days going out.

i know its hard to trust new ppl when others let you down, but just remember that not all guys are ass holes.

hope i helped


I need advice! My middle school is soooooo boring! All my friend's schools have cooler teachers, more freedom, and fun activities and dances on friday nights. What does my school have? Zippo. We have teachers who aren't interested in making school atleast a little bit fun and interesting, classes that are terribly boring, and no social events at all. We don't even have any free time. The only time we can talk is at lunch which is only 25 minutes long and isn't even lunch, its at 10:30! i kno i can't transfer cuz im doing really well academically and i have a lot of friends. What to do? I RATE! (link)
talk to the principal, give him/her some ideas. im sure they will like knowing that your interested in improving the school. get a committe together to raise money for social events.


i wanna earn some money.. problem is, im only 13 is there ANYTHING i can do to get some money? (link)
babysitting .. thats about it =/ i know it sucks.
you can also ask your parents to do small chores around the house for money.


Alright here is the story. I broke up with my boyfriend about 3 days ago because it didn`t feel right and I kinda wanted to explore with other guys. The problem is I still like my now ex alot and I dont want him to get with another girl! I Don`t know if I should go back out with him or just explore or what to do at all! Any ideas?
I rate well (link)
well its not fair that you want to explore with other guys but you dont want him to be with other girls. i dont think you should go back out with him right away. its normal for you to miss him, but you broke up with him for a reason. go out and have fun with other ppl for awhile and if you still feel like you really miss him, try to go back out with him


My guy friend and I have been friends since frosh year. We talk a lot on AIM and in person.
Recently, we've been chatting more and sometimes I get vibes that maybe he likes me more than a close friend.
Our first home football game was a few weeks ago and I got him to come to it cause another friend of ours was moving that weekend to Maryland. He came after his play practice and we hung out after the halftime show(yeah marching band!).We walked towards our homes together. Across the street from his house, we chatted for a few and then hugged. I think he might have kissed me on my forehead. When I hugged him, everything felt right in the world. Then I told him I'd wait for him to cross(cause its a main road and it was 10 at night). He said "So you'd know if I die, right?" and I said "Yeah, but I don't want you to die cause I love you." He smiled and crossed then we met up on AIM when we got home.
On days that I have my private flute lesson, sometimes I see him and he comes over and sits by me. We usually chat about random things.
We usually say hey to each other in school. Online lately we have been chatting a little bit more on the sexual side. We had a conversation about balls. He says he trusts me a lot and that I'm his close friend(he doesnt believe in best friends). We have pretty much the same personality and music tastes.
The other day, we walked to the music wing together(I have band the same period he has choir). We were chatting and we were both late by 2 minutes to class.
Usually he doesn't say anything to me when he can't chat, but now all of a sudden he says "can't talk now, going to eat dinner/do a project. sorry!"
He's also started holding the door for me and making me smile more.

any ideas. Sorry this is so long. (link)
aww he so likes you =] ask him to hang out alone more! keep it upppp


i am 13 years old. im a girl. a lot of people think that is too young to have a boyfriend. there is this one boy in my home room class, and everybody in the school ( well, just girls ) like him! he is still one of those boys who make stupid noises during class and act very - well not their age. younger, lets say, about 10 years younger! but he is verrry cute and i dont know what to do. i have liked him since 5th grade, and he asked 3 people out then. how do i know if he likes me? im way to shy to tell him that i like him, or ask him if he likes me. he talks to me, but also soooooo many other girls, so i cant tell who he likes. what should i do? (link)
ok first of all 13 isnt too young to have a bf, as long as your mature enough. just remember, looks isnt everything. you dont want an immature bf, because hes not gonna treat your relationship seriously. its good that he talks to u, but since he talks to so many other girls you cant really tell if he likes you. since your too shy to tell him you like him, you should try to find out who he likes. do it casually, and if you dont want to make it obvious you can even say its for someone else.

p.s. be flirtY ;]


I'm not fat but I would feel much better about myself and more confident if I was skinnier, what are some good ways to lose weight, i'm already in soccer and bearly eating anything, but i'm not losing weight. (link)
ok barely eating anything isnt good. its fine if u want to lose a few pounds but dont starve yourself...you want to stay healthy looking. just eat a balanced diet and you can excersise additional ways like going to the gym and stuff.


i am about 5'5 5'6 probually closer to 5'6 now. and i weigh 118 pounds. do am i fine. cuz when i look in the mirror i see BBIIIIGGG. (link)
ur totally fine dont worry so much!


Well ive been cruching on this guy for like EVER! well tonight i finally told him. and we didn't get to talk anymore about it b/c someone walkied around the corner. but i just want to know if it was stupid of me to tell him or not? he is like always staring at me and what not, or he was idk if he still is but i need help!
(link)
i dont think it was stupid of you to tell him because if you didn't then you never would have known what could have happened. and the worst thing that he could say is that he doesn't like you like that, but atleast you gave it your best shot and took a chance. and if hes staring at you then your chance is a good one ;] goodluck!


Well this young man, is all that I am looking for right now, I am so afraid to give him a chance because I had just jumped in a relationship last time and got hurt. So should I follow my heart or should I weight things out first? Please Help (link)
i think you should get to know him more before you go into a serious relationship. hang out with him as friends alone for awhile, and maybe ask around about him and see what his reputations like.


Ok I am in High school and I have 3 freakin rumors going around the school about me and my best friend. This girl is telling me that me and my best friend are lesbian lovers, which is so not true, because I am straight, and now I have people talking about me, and also I have another rumor which isn't as bad, but that one is that I am going with this boy, and that I am a slut. Its going around the whole school, and it upsets me, and makes me want to cry. I don't know what I should do. I haven't had these problems, til I met this one girl. (link)
rumors suck but they happen to everyone. high school wouldnt be high school without rumors. the best thing you can do is just act like you dont care and people will stop talking. believe me by next week, everyone will be talking about something new.


Im going to get my hair cut tomarrow.
My hair is soo boring. so im getting
Just layers and maybe bangs.

I want side swept bangs so how long do you think they should be? Any pictures? Is the whole BANG look even still "in"? Im really scared about making this HUGE change. Should I get the bangs? (link)
you should try to find a picture of hilary duff in a magazine cuz she has the kind of bangs your looking for and they always look good. also, make sure you specify to your hair dresser that you wnat them long because when i got mine she cut then A LOT shorter then i wanted them to be. and yes bangs are still in.


My parents are getting divorced because my mum is unhappy.
Anyway I found out that she was cheating on my dad.
I followed her one day down the end of my road where she got into a car with a guy, Mark. I know it was him because I heard her talking about him to her friends and I know its her old boyfirend.
She didnt come home that night.
I feel weird towards her.
I don't know what to do. My dad doesnt know. Should I tell him. I don't want to hurt either of my parents.
Will this affect the divorce porceedings?
Thanks for all help. (link)
you shouldnt tell your dad cause it will just make your mom mad. he does need to know tho. ask your mom whats going on, and if she says nothing tell your not a stupid little kid and you need an explanation for what's going on. If she tells you the truth then tell her that she should tell your dad cuz its not fair keeping it from him. If she doesn't tell you the truth then she's obviously ashamed so just say mom, whatevers going on i wont think any less of you so will you please tell me. as far as the divorce proceedings i dont know much about that sorry.
hope i helped


I need help. well actually my guy friend does. He likes this girls that lives in P.A. but she wont go out with him because of the distance. Hes been really sad lately(or at least i see sadness) and I never see him smile and he never hits me like he used to when we would play around. What can I do to make him happy again? I really miss him being happy. So if anyone can help me... please help. I miss him a lot... :-(



(link)
you should try taking him out to do something that you know he always enjoys...something to really take his mind off of things. also let him know that your always there for him to talk about anything. this should make him feel better. good luck! =]
