I did not write the book of love,
and I do not claim to be full of wisdom.

I sure do make mistakes,
but I live and learn!

I try to let no one come to me,
without leaving happier. [:

and distinguish yourself.
Don't even think about
retiring from the World,
until the World will be
sorry that you retire!"

♥[?]♥ Hello, im 17 years old and i grew up with 3 friends since pre-school. We are soo close. But 2 out of the 3 are racists. I never really cared because they didnt say anything around me. Then i started dating an African-American. And they are saying things about me and my boyfriend. I love them and i have grown up with them but i love my boyfriend ALOT too.. he means alot to me. Now im stuck in the middle between my bestfriends and my boyfriend. What i am i going to do? Thank You.
Sincerely,
stuck so deeply
Dude.. theRe's good and bad in ALL Races!! You can't change youR fRiends' views on the woRld, howeveR you CAN open theiR eyes a bit. EnsuRe them that he Really IS a good peRson, and if he wasn't... you wouldn't be with him. Let them know how much you'd appReciate it if they hung out with the two of you to Really get to know him. PeRhaps once they catch on to the fact that he Really *isn't* a bad guy.. they'll come aRound. I wish you the best of luck!! Hope I helped!!

♥[?]♥ I'm 14 and I broke up with my ex boyfriend 2 months ago, because we never talked or were able to see each other.Now that were broken up I see him more and more. We started hanging out. Well the other day he told me he still loved me and still wanted to be with me,but I didn't tell him it back because I didn't want to get hurt again.After that we started walkin with his friend and I had a stupid moment and kissed his friend (I've liked his friend for like ever),but I never stopped loving my ex.. Should I feel bad for what I did?
Uhm, no, I don't think so. You shouldn't feel guilty you did it just because you like youR ex so much. You two aRen't togetheR anymoRe.. you don't owe it to him to be obessed oveR him foReveR, and you have no pRomises to keep! On the otheR hand.. I would suggest not getting involved with his fRiend.. that soRt of thing could Really bReak up theiR fRiendship, and it's pRobably not woRth it!! Best wishes!! Hope I helped!!

♥[?]♥ okay, well I'm a columnist on here, and give good advice, but still...

It could just be the link, so yeah.. tRy a diffeRent one to see if the pRoblem will pResist! Hope I helped!!

♥[?]♥ how do i prevent the red razor bumps on my bikini line from coming when i shave? and how do i get a very close shave to where you cant even tell there is hair there? i want it all gone but everytime i shave it just turns red and gets razor burn.
Ick. I have this same pRoblem; it blows. TRy using Skintimate shave gel, and shaving slowly and evenly. Then afteRwaRds, Rub lotion on it.
