I really need to start taking my own advice.

advice

Why do guys hate/not like when girls cry? For example, last night I was telling my best guy friend about something really upsetting, and he just kept saying, "Please don't cry, please don't cry." What makes guys always say that, like why does it upset tem when girls cry?

Two answers;
Most guys don't deal with emotions much, so they don't know how to handle the situation and therefor it becomes awkward for them.

OR.

He did not want to see you crying and hurt. Maybe he really cares for you and hates to see you upset and sad.

Good luck.

Do you have a Dollar Store near you?
Most dollar stores sell small purse like bags.
Try getting them a small purse then putting their favorite candies inside or even a necklace.

Why are so many teenagers these days (particularly girls) obsessed with losing weight while they are like 100 lb?? Seriously, a girl who is like 12, 5 feet and 2 inches, and then complains she is overweight is actually underweight!

I don't get why girls want to get to be like 75 lb. Does anybody agree with me here?

Well, I do agree.
I hope this does not come across as rude,
because it is not intended to sound so.

This website is an advice column, not a chat room. I'm getting quite frusturated at the amount of "questions" about people asking stupid, pointless, or inaproprait questions.

Just a thought.
But I do agree.

this is wat u have to be able 2 do for my tryouts:

were doing 2 or 3 cheers,you have to be sharp were going to be stunting. and you have to jump,toe touch, hurdler. ((righ and left)) u have 2 be able to do a backhandspring(almost got) but the tryouts r the 13 so how am i supposed to get all this stuff done?

Keep working; Imma fellow cheerleader :)
Keep stretching, keep tumbling.
At tryouts, explain to the coaches/judges you almost have your backhandspring and it will be perfect within the month, and let them know you're willing to keep working hard at it.

That should clear up any confusing as to the tumbling issue.

For the rest, keep a smile on your face, try hard. Pay attention to what they teach you, and review it several times a night (assuming your tryouts are more then one day)

Just keep a good attitude.
After all, thats what cheerleading is about isnt it?

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get green sharpie marker out of a white shirt? LOL. I know, lost cause, but, I am kinda desparate.

Thanks.

Hi there;
You could try, Tide To Go, or put SHOUT or Spray and Wash on the stain and wash the shirt.

Or you could try bleaching the shirt.
If the shirt isn't ALL white, I suggest the use of the Clorox Bleach Pen :)

Good Luck

well me and this boy were getting pretty close and i let him kiss me like with tongue. And so one of his friends told him i have a boyfriend and i dont but he wont tlk to me wat do i do

First off, make a plan.
Next time you see him in the halls, block him off. Honestly, step up in front of him, and tell him you need to talk, he needs to listen. (You can say it nicely if you wish)

Tell him you being taken was some stupid rumors, remind him thats the way girls are 99% of the time. [NO way denying that.]

Tell him you really like him, don't be afraid of the risk, go for it. Let him know you just couldn't have him mad at your for something you had no control over.

Then tell him you hope for forgivness and you apologize for the mix up, lies, and the heartbreaks. You can walk away confidentaly from there if you wish.

Good Luck.

Do you think horoscopes are true in any way?

Truth behind horoscopes pretty much depends on how supersticious you are. For me, I look at my horoscope for yesterday, and see that somethings are similar to the predictions, but thats just me, I'm very supersticious.

Its more a case of belifs and opinions.

My friend was dianosed with mono last week, i didnt know this and i drank out of her water bottle, is it possilbe that she is still contagious?

My brother had mono for almost a month and a half, so yes, there is a great chance of spreading the germs.

Symptoms:
Inital symptoms occur 1-3 days before severe symptoms may show:
-Chills, loss of appetite, lack of energy.

More intense symptoms:
-Severe sore throat
-Fever
-Swollen neck glands

I found a page all about it, if you have any more questions look here:

Does anyone know where i can get a cute steering wheel cover and seat covers (preferably hot pink, but doesnt matter, as long as theyre cute) and also some cute bumper stickers? I've already tried places like target, wal-mart, and advanced auto parts. any other places i should try?

I've been to outlet stores of Roxy, PacSun, and Billabong, they were LOADED full of car stickers for windows and bumpers.

For your rear view mirror, try hanging a cute picture of you (and maybe a boyfriend or bff) hung by a pretty ribbon. :)

For seat covers, both my brothers have purchased theirs online (ebay) for very low prices and they're quite durable.

The only store I've found these things at is target. I see you said you've been there, but at my local target they have a full aisle on stuff to decorate cars with. I suggest checking on their website for more on those.

Good Luck.

I have two questions about the urine test that are given during physicals:

1)At what age (if any) do they stop giving them?

2)Do they check for drugs if a request isn't given to do so?

Guilty Soul? ;)
ha kidding, anywho.
I've had 9 physicals done over my time,
and I've never once had a urine test done.
Drug tests and urine samples are usually
only taken upon request, or if you have chronic stomach pain.

If a doctor so happens to take one,
most likley they will call your mom out of
the room to discuss the problem privatley.

Good Luck

Ok soo I have really frizzy, poufy hair that I hate, so I recently bought a Chi. I really like my hair straight, but the only problem is that my Chi makes my hair really, really flat. It pretty much just sucks the volume out of my hair. I was just wondering if anyone knew how I can get my hair straight but keep some volume?

Thanksss =]

There are numerous shampoos out there just lurking to cure your hair delema.

Sunsilk has Anti-Flat, John Frieda has a few, Aussie does, Pantene also, and I'm sure there are plenty more.

Also, there are many mousses and cremes also used for volumizing, just try those out.

Good Luck.

Alright, well, I've never been kissed ( and I'm 15 ).

So I mean, I've been asked by guys ( which I find funny in some weird way and then just put it off ) because I guess I don't want my first kiss to be that way, and tonight I was asked again, and of course, me being me, I said no. And I'm just afraid that's giving guys vibes that I like, hate them or something which isn't true. I just want my first kiss to be special, but lately I'm just like,"God, do it, get it over with, whatever." But I don't know, I don't even really know what my real question is.


I guess I'm just asking for your opinion on things. Like; what would you do if you were me?

I was in your situation, however I was only 13 at the time. My best friend was doing things way beyond kissing, and I felt I needed to catch up.

I found a boy, I didn't care how he looked or his personality, and we flirted, soon enough I had him. I told him I've never been kissed and it was thrust upon him to be my first.

I regret it 100%.
It was disgusting, he drooled all over me.
It didn't feel special whatsoever.
I recommend you wait, a boy will come.
Just, uck, don't do what I did.

can you wear color contacts even if you don't need regular contacts?

if so, where can you get them and which are the best brand?

thanks so much.

Yes, you can get them without wearing regular contacts.

As for the best brand, its totally dependent on your eyes and your doctor. For me, I stuck with Acuve for almost four years, thinking it was the best brand. Then last year, my eyes just changed, and now I've been moved to a different brand.

Schedual an appointment with your eye doctor, ask him the same thing, he'll fill you in on everything.

What does emo mean?

Emo comes from Emotional.
The label is usually placed upon people who dye their hair black (usualy have unnatural hair cuts to go along with it), cut their wrists, listen to emo, hardcore, rock music, wear shirts with depressing slogans, and may or may not be suicidal.

Most emo boys dress in very tight jeans and fitted shirts, the girls layer alot in dark colors such as black and red.

Good Luck.

I am a really flat chest. I am 13 and all my friends have boobs but i dont. I know its mother nature and you cant predict when you will get them but please help if you have any excersises or any advice would be great.

You can sit and watch informercials all night long about the "Bust Builder" or the "Magic Boob Bean" but trust me, none of them will work.

In sixth grade, I was so flat, the walls were jealous. That summer, I got boobs. They kept growing and now their C's. So yes, yours will come, hopefully soon.

Boobs are genetic, does your mom, sister, aunt have big boobs? If not, yours may take longer to show up.

Good Luck
