Hey! I'm Caitlin and in a few days I'll be a freshman in high school. I love giving advice and I feel that I am good at it. I've been through a lot of stuff, divorce, moving, having my best friend move, a family member with cancer, and love (including being cheated on). So please don't hesitate to ask. I mean sitting there staring at the computer screen isn't going to do anything now is it?

Say this to him:
Dad, I'm not going to make this a question of your lvoe but do you love me? You wouldn't want em to be unhappy would you? I have tried my hardest to accept (insert girlfriend here lol) but I just can't seem to. I"m your daughter I will be here forever and I will always love you but I'm not gonna want to spend time with you if I'm miserable because your with your girlfriend.

Today I was sitting in class and I just picked up this needle thing and started running it up and down my arm. I don't know why but then I started scratching myself with it really badly so that I had marks all over my arm. After school, my boyfriend saw but he made a joke of it. I think I did it because I want attention because my parents don't really give me any. I was really upset that my boyfriend didn't care, does it show that he doesn't care about me? Everybody that saw what I had done just ignored me. (link)

Talk to a counsiler. You are depressed or something and I think you need to talk to someone. I've tried it before but stopped myself aftert talking to someone. Dump your boyfriend, if he doesn't care or notice your in trouble he doesn't deserve you!

i usually do pretty well in school, but i am a really bad test taker. even if know the stuff, the second a test is put in front of me, my mind blanks. i don't know what to do because my test grades are bringing down my averages...especially bio. do any of u have any tricks for taking tests? if u do please please tell me...thank you so much (link)
|
TALK TO YOUR TEACHER AFTER SCHOOL. I am in honors biology myself and I thought I knew the material but I kept getting C's on tests and thats not me. She helps me study and etc and I think its going to help my grade. Its nothing to be ashamed of, its something to be proud of. After all, this means that are you responsible and you WANT to get better grades!

What exactly are those livestrong bracelets for. I've seen a lot of people with them I was I was wondering does it mean that they want to wait until to marriage to have sex. Or is it something completly different (link)
|
Nope! Its because Lance Armstrong has cancer and its for research. Personally, I don't have one I have a pink one that is for breast cancer awarness. I got mine for one dollar at famous barr but you can get them at their site pinkmerchandise.com it says so inside the bracelet.

hey im a 15 year old girl and i have oily skin, any body have any good concealer/foundation/cover-up/powder ? (link)
|
look at magazines they normally show good products for different types of skins, etc. This way there are ratings and its not just some fake advertising.

Ok so in july i had my apendix taken and i was told that i might not get my period and I was ok kewl. But I got my period in august and now I haven't gotten it in 3 months. When before my surgery i had it regular for 2 years. My mom called her geinocologist(cant spell) and she said i had to wait till i didn't have it for 6 months and then even then they will examine me but wont give me anything. Is this normal? (link)
|
To be honest I'm not quite sure, and I wouldn't trust people on here either. I would look at a RELIABLE medical site and see what you come up with.

OK!!! my dad is turning 50 this friday and we are having a big suprise party for himbut i dont know what to do for his present. i know that my brother and i are doing a duet on the guitar but i dont know what REAL presant to get him. i really love to make things plus im broke, does anyone have any ideas?? (link)
|
Well I don't know your dad. Ask your mom or stepmom or someone who knows him well but mostly a female because well... they probably have a better idea. (i'm not trying to be sexist or anything...)
Hope this helped feel free to ask me more questions on my site,

i need to get a halloween costume for halloween but my mom wont buy one and she wont take me somewhere to buy one! i don't really want to make my own costume because nobody will help me and i can't do it by myself without it looking really bad! i don't know what to do!! Should i just keep trying to convince my mom? Or make my own,really bad-looking, costume? (link)
|
Hmm... well first of all I wouldn't take that girl's advice with the net. YOu have to use a credit card and that would mean either using you own which could lead to identity theft or your moms which wouldn't make her very happy now would it? So I would say maybe be a charachter from a movie or something that would wear every day clothes or ask you friends i fyou can borrow some clothes like a cheerleading outfit or a jersey.

What's the best fall style's this year? I've been shopping at American Eagle, and Maurices. I heard Gadzooks is a good place. What else?
I'm also trying to impress my crush. xD (link)
|
Well I like those stores and I shop there so let me give you some input. Two great stores are Wet Seal (my favorite) and Charlotte Russe. If you like Gadzooks you may like Pacsun.

hey well ive been going out with my boyfriend for almost 2 years. Hes a senior and im a junior. Ever since weve been going out he doesnt talk to his lady friends at all anymore just his guy friends. Well i didnt make him not hang out with him he just chose not to. Now the girls try to make me jealous by trying to say hey to him just when im with him but it doesnt work at all atcually i think that its pretty sad! My boyfriend just ignores them. They always give me dirty looks and i guess talk about me to. THis doesnt bother me tho. well like what did i do? DO you think they are jealous or what??
* Ashley* 17- Louisiana*
Thanks (link)

They are jealous of you. Its their problem. Its not your fault, and they are the ones that are giving you bad looks rather than going up to your boyfriend and talking about it. One day just go up to them and be like: Guys, I dunno if you'll believe me but I didn't tell him to stop talking to you. I trust him, its not my fault so why don't you guys try and talk to him, even if he seems to ignore you he still can't close his ears.

hey well i'm really nervous about the first time i have sex. im nervous about becoming pregnant, like if the condom breaks. so i was wondering if its wrong/weird for the guy to wear 2 condoms (one on top of the other)... is that really pathetic? i know im supposed to use lube but i'm still scared so could i make him wear 2 just in case? (link)
|
You can use lube if you want to. Honestly, I have never had sex. But the thing about the condoms is obvious to me. If you want him to wear two, ask him to. If you're not comfortable with the condom idea you're not emotionally ready for sex. Just relax, just like kissing it will come natural.

alright, so i'll try and make this short as possible. there is this really hot guy at me school. i'm in 9th he's in 10th, so its not totally impossible that we go out. the thing is is that we dont' have any classes or anything together. i see him during lunch and in the library before school, and his cousin/friend has his locker right by mine, so i see him sometimes then too. and we've never talked or anything, but i really really want to get to know him! but my friend who knows him says hes shy, so that leaves me to make the first move .. problem, i don't know what to say! i DO NOT just want to barge up to him saying 'hi, i like you, etc' gosh, can someone help me?
-despretley in need of help. (link)
|
This may seem stupid but here it goes. Get your friend to get his screen name and start to IM him. If you do this its easier for both of you to talk. once you are comfortable talking to him on the net its easier in person. I promise. Hey the internet can actually do something for you other than your homework now and then can't it?

okay well i havnt gotten my period yet.. and i have like no shape to my body... barely any boobs like no ass... when i get my period will my body start growing faster n stuff.... cuz i really hate how i look... im 13 im tall ( 5'3) I have really long legs... im really skinny... and i can never find pants and like i hate school shopping bcuz i can never find good tight pants that are long enough like if they are tight enough they are to long... so im really self concious.... idk what to do (link)
|
OMG I am the same way. Except I'm turning 14 in november, and I am 5'5. I totally understand. There are a couple things I can say. You can always get pants shortned, and rather than getting a 0 regular try 0 short for example. Also, a lot of the jeans have the worn look in them. If they are long they'll scrape at the bottom adding to the effect even more. It'll get better I promise. My mom was like us and she definatly grew. Just hold on and remember its better to be skinny and have to gain weight then to be fat and have to work it off.
Hope that helped feel free to ask more ?'s at my column or IM me,
Caitlin!
