Uhh.. yeah, embarrising question to ask.

My class is throwing a gradyation party. We're all allowed to invite 14 people each. We somehow came to the agreement that half of those people had to be boys, and half girls.

The problem isnt only that I don't have male friends to invite (although thats a huge problem) its that i dont have nearly enough friends.

My solution to this is to pretend that I have a university interview to go to, and miss the whole event. Although I've alreay paid. And I would have to lie to my parents too.

Is there any other way to deal with this? It feels really bad to have to end my highschool years like this.

Oh, don't skip the party! Who cares if you don't have 14 friends you can think of off the top of your head :] most can't. Besides, most of your friends will probably be there anyway. Just go and have fun. Who knows, maybe you'll make some new friends there :] Goodluck!

There's this guy, he's been my bestfriend sense 6th grade, and he flirts with me alot. Everyone says we'd make a cute couple if we went out. He used to hug me everyday, also in between classes, and he used to put his hands on my waist, and put his hands on my stomach everytime i said my stomach hurt and stuff. Now he has a girlfriend, who he says he really likes and i think i like him..alot. and now he doesnt do any of the stuff he used to..and he said he'd go to this club[for 7th-11th graders. me and him are in 7th] with me but we had to make sure his girlfriend didnt know, and she has the 8th grade lunch instead of your lunch and he just doesnt to that to me anymore..idk why..help?

Well, if he has a girlfriend, of course he's not still flirting with you. He doesn't want to be known as a cheater, and he obviously cares about this other girl. His girlfriend might have suspcted him of cheating, and talked to him, so he doesn't do it anymore.

december 1st i got my cartiledge pierced with a gun, not a needle. its now march and i STILL cant take out my earring. i've tried many times and its IMPOSSIBLE to get back in and my ear will start to like gush blood and i'll have to push it in. There is this like bubble on the back of my ear where the piercing goes there. so here's my problem, i play lacrosse and practices have started and for games i can't wear my earring..i dont want to waste time at the doctors unless i really need to but does anyone know what i'm going through, should i get it repierced on the other ear or something?

You might have an infection, and your body is rejecting the piercing. I suggest you take it out and let it heal for a while, then get it repierced.

I am always hungry. Not just that I want to eat, but literal stomach hunger. I can eat a full supper, and still be hungry for more. I know its not healthy... how can I not be hungry, so I can eat less?

Drink lots of water. The human body sometimes confuses thirst with hunger :] goodluck!

Maybe i should not be going to you but this is big and i just have to ask. I chose sex as my topic because they did not have teen pregnancy. I am 15 and obviously a girl and i had sex with a 15 year old and then IT broke and so now i am about 2 months in. I do not want an abortion so any advice on becoming a parent.... By the way... my boyfriend left me and my mom knows

Signed,
Gonna be in pain

Start saving your money. Get a job if you need too. Remember, you can always put the baby up for adoption if you want. OR you could have it for another family, like in the movie Juno :] Also, I'd suggest taking a parenting class. Goodluck!

Ok. I'm getting a laptop soon. I definitely won't be getting the most expensive one out there, but i wanted to know (i have no idea where to look or find out) which is better, mac or a PC? which brand of PC is generally better? You don't have to be specific with speed and stuff, memory and functionality are mainly what i'm looking for.

Thanks =)

Ok, I'm going to tell you, first off; Buy a laptop after christmas. That's when they start selling them cheap to get ready for the new shipments and stuff :] I got a great deal. I would reccommend a pc, an hp one. From what I hear, Mac's are better, but more confusing to use, and pc's are easier to use but not as good. Goodluck!

Hey sorry I couldn't figure out which category to put this into..

Ok I leave for spring break March 28th, and I really want to get my belly Button peirced. Does anyone know how long I would have to stay out of the water? Pool Ocean, etc?

Anywhere from 6 months to a year is the time in which you should stay away from pools. Oceans, however, you ARE allowed to go into, since salt water is good for the healing process. Just be sure to clean it right after you're done playing in the ocean. Also, some people heal faster than others, so I'd ask the person who pierces your belly button about it too. ^_^ goodluck!

Is it weird for girls to ask guys out?
Which do guys prefer?
Any opinion is appreciated.

No, it's not "weird, persay.... but usually it's a big turnoff to the guy. It'll make it seem as if the girl is too...bold. Which, I guess some people like :] It depends on the person. I would suggest that the girl flirts with the guy until he asks her out ;]

I had my belly button pierced last year in January. I was cheap did it at this guys house who was supposed to be good,but maybe I had a reaction or something either way I got an infection.

It was infected for like 7 months. I'm sure I did not properly clean it. But it got to the point where there was a layer of skin holding it in there, like piece of paper thin,no lie. So I took out the ring and ripped the skin off. (It didn't hurt,but was kind of gross.) I didn't know I shouldn't have probably done that.

And since about October I've had no belly button ring, figured out that the red mark would go away, until I looked it up on google to find I probably have an Abscess infection or something.

Since I ripped out the ring, and I still have the red mark do I need to tell my doctor to treat it? Like to get some medicine.
And will I be able to have it repierced in the same spot?(Top part of the belly button.) Or can I get/have to get it on the bottom part?
Thanks for any advice!

Go to your doctor IMMEDIATELY, or at least as soon as you can. First off, belly button rings, if infected, can mess up your stomach lining and cause some serious problems. Also, if your belly button ring ever gets infected NEVER take out the jewelry. Go to the doctor first. I reccommend you to NOT pierce it in the same spot. Since there were already problems the top part [infection,skin layer loss, etc] I think you should get the top part treated and then get it repierced on the bottom this time :] remember to clean it good this next time. Goodluck!

Okay so like in three weeks from now 2/27/08 i really want to get my first and only tattoo. I'm a simple girl. I want it to be hidden easily, I want it small.. so i was thinking best possible place is by my hip, thats where i really want it, however my problem is finding what exactly i want. i really want something that reprsetns peace but the thing is my other friends are getting the dove and the finger peace sign. So i don't know what i want, I don't really care for the regular peace symbol ya know the circle one, i want it to be elegant and cool, but i jsut can't find images, i'm can't draw so its impossible for me to make my own, but does anyone have any suggestions as to what i can get??? this would help soooo much. i've been searching on the web for a long time but nothign just seems to stand out. your help is greatly appreciated. thanks

Get the word "Peace" but it fancy curly letters, with a rose on/around it. Nothing says "peace" like a gun stuffed with flower :D Goodluck!

Im Catholic, and I need to pick a confirmation saint. If you are catholic, I want to know, how did you pick yours? (I know alot of people pick their own names, but there is no saint with my name.)
I want to pick one that has to do with like, anti-war. See, I strongly beleive that killing is never ok for any reason, so there should never be a good reason for war. So basically, when I make my speech the night I get confirmed, I want to present a strong anti-war message to the audience, you know what I mean? (I almost decided not to get confirmed because I'm furious with the hypocracy of catholics that think the War in Iraq is ok.)

So my question is, basicly, what saint should I choose to give my speech about that fits my views well?

Well, i'm not catholic, but I DID find a site :] here you go. Goodluck!

is there any home made recipe that relieves skin of pimples over night? or very fast

I've heard that if you use a little bit of spot-treatment with toothpaste at night, it will make the pimple dissapear very fast. My friend said it works :] Goodluck!

alright so im trying out for my highschool team (im a freshman) for softball. Any good tips to give me? Its my second time ever trying out for a school sport, and i really want it. badly.

Practice the softball basics. You definitely want to know how to do a pop-up slide, since you're trying out for softball in highschool. Look up "softball techniques" on google. Practice swinging and play catch with some friends, so you can practice throwing correctly. Do you have another friend who plays softball? Ask them to help coach you and teach you the basics. I'm trying out for my softball team too :]

Goodluck!

A couple of days ago, I asked a question about how to get youtube songs on an iPod. And someone said something about zamzar. Well, my only problem is, I don't quite know what the URL is. Can someone please tell me where the URL is on youtube? thanks!

it's at the top of the page. It should say "http://_______________________" replacing the "_______________" with where ever you're at. Copy and paste it and your good to go :] such as, right now, mine says "http://www.advicenators.com/answer.php?q=532068" Goodluck!

Hey. Well, I'm 15/f. So I've been working out for about 2 months now and eating healthy. Well, I used to eat just about anything that I wanted. Now I've totally changed the way I eat, and I work out a lot more. I workout about 5 times a week. Well, when I look at myself in the mirror, like after a shower or something, I look like I'm getting bigger. And my mom and dad say that it looks like I'm thinning down, but I really do think I am getting bigger. And there is nothing else I can do. I eat healthy everyday, and workout most of the week. So what can I do. I'm not going to give up, because I reallyyyyyyy want to lose weight, but there is nothing else to do. So what am I doing wrong? Please help me!!!!! thanks!

Just keep doing what you're doing, and be patient. You might just be imagining it, since your parents disagree with you. Take there encouragement and keep working. If you really want to know whether you're gaining/losing, go weigh yourself! Ask your parents for a scale. Goodluck!

14f How old do you need to be to get your belly button pierced? I dont want to tell my mom but I want it done. Is there anyway around that?
Could you pierce it yourself? I seen it done in the movie thirteen.. they made it seem easy.

Yes, a friend of mine got a belly button piercing for her 14th birthday present. You definitely want to tell your mom though. If she says no, just talk to her, and explain that it's your body, and that you can always take it out. Just don't get into an argument about it, stay calm and just show her you can be mature about it. If you REALLY don't want to ask, ask a friends mom to take you, maybe one that doesn't know your mom or has a piercing herself. I strongly advise you NOT to do it yourself. You want to get it done professionally so there is no infection. Movies make everything seem easy lol :]

Goodluck!

15/f

so lately this weeek i haven't felt like i used to. like i don't feel as happy as i have been and i have no reason not to feel the same. this has happened to me before then it went away. i know i'm not like depressed or anything. but i'm bulimic and i know i've been this way for a little over a year. i think it's getting worse though. i'm tired all the time, i don't feel like doing anything because i'm so tired. and i've been getting headaches a lot. i don't know what to do. i hate feeling this way. i mean i don't even feel like talking to people anymore. how can i feel more happy?

i know it will go away later but i'm sick of it.
thanks =]

Well you definitely need to seek some help :] being bulimec sure isn't helping these side effects. Talk to a counselor or your parents and tell them what's going on. Good luck!

14/f. this past year ive gained a little weight, but most of it goes into my face lol which is weird. im a very skinny girl, but if i gain weight, my face (cheeks) like get fuller and stuff. if i work out and lose weight will my face go back down to original size? and is there any way to not make my face get so fat? lol thanks!

Try drinking a lot of water when you're "hungry". Sometimes, your body mistakes hunger for thirst :] just excercise a little. You're pretty lucky it only goes to your face lol whatever I eat goes to my legs D: ha ha goodluck! :D
