advice
So I know its a stupid thing to get upset about, but my computer mouse is dodgy and its really hard to press down on the left button - which is the one used the most, the right button doesnt even work. I have this thing with my wrist where the bone bit sticks out and it hurts so much 24/7, so obviously using this computer mouse would just make it so much more worse. I've had to put up with this for months now.
I'm forever asking my mum to buy me a new one but she'd always say "oh next week when I get paid". And it's the same excuse all the time.
So, last night my brother got annoyed at his computer mouse because it's been freezing these past couple of days. So he went into the garden and smashed it up with a baseball bat. He's 18, has a job and earns money.
I got home from school today and my mum tells me she needs to go out to buy my brother a new mouse. How bloody unfair is that! I'm 15, it's not like I get any kind of income (not even pocket money) to afford to buy myself one! And my brother earns enough money to buy himself one (just to let you know I haven't misunderstood my mum - she IS paying for it).
I'm just sooo fed up of her treating him like he's royalty. She jumps around for him the SECOND he needs something. But me, no when I need something it gets put off for a month or so. She's also just constantly annoyed at me. It's like everything I do is just completely wrong. I mean, I do have to admit my brother is a lot easier to live with now. But, when we were younger he was a COMPLETE IDIOT! He ALWAYS got his way with my mum (just like now!), which just annoyed me even more then I got into even more trouble. I'm just so sick of him getting everything he wants and everything he needs off my mum (my problem isn't with my brother - I get on really well with him). Obviously I do ask for money from my mum when I want to buy maybe a new top or jeans or something (I mostly get that money from my dad though!), she would moan about it as usual - I mean I am not going out in clothes that are over a year old, she just doesn't understand I DO NOT earn my own money. She's always telling me to get a Saturday job. I have asked literally everywhere in town. Nowhere. Plus, I'm in my last year of compulsory school, I do need time for revising and such (plus I have mock exams for the next 2 weeks!). I mean, surely girls at the age of 15 do not have to earn and pay for themselves for EVERYTHING!?
Sorry this may be a bit long, I guess it's more of a rant then a question. But, any ideas on what to do or how to deal with this?
Sit your mother down and tell her how you feel say you've got school and that you shouldn't be worrying about getting a job you should be acting like a kid and enjoying life not worrying about having adult responsiblites talking is better then not saying anything at all keeping everything your feeling to yourself isn't healthy
tell your mother you'd like to be treated equally
so your not getting pushed aside you'd like more attention from her explain to your parents the situation with the mouse pad if your mother doesn't budge then go onto your father :)
k so im 14 male and im one of those kids who dont really talk/socialize with other people so thats what people naturally expect of me, i need to know how to "fit in with sociaty" im a normal person i just kinda took the role of a quite person unfortunately and people dont expect me to be a wild, talk-a-lot kid so if anyone has advice, which i know all you great people do, thanx
Be confident and believe in yourself confidence is key if you don't have those two things then you'll have low self esteem and you won't feel good about yourself everyone gets shy and nervous sometimes it's normal but you can't let your nerves get the best of you think positively not negatively others will accept you more if be yourself and if you don't try to be or act like
something you aren't :)
I liek this guy and he is a freshman..I am in 8th grade i am pre sure he doesnt know me cause well he is always baked and i know through a mutual friend anywya i am pre sure he is hella prefect fe rme so heres the deal i want to talk to him and he put his number on myspace saying text me so should i just text him and see what happens or what? it be appreciated if you helped me =]]
Yes i think you should text him and see what happens start a conversation and see how it goes from there give him the benefit of the doubt see what he has to say he deserves a chance at least one don't jump to conclusions so quickly he gave you his number through myspace which meant that he probably wanted you to text him and talk so do it :)
I just got the most shocking message from my ex-boyfriend Kris. I'm still like processing the whole thing... I have no idea what to think or do. Read it for yourselves!
Lexie, I apologize for everything, i dont know what i was thinking, I hate not talking with you. Your the only girl i ever think about, id really like to see you, I love you... i hope you still have some feelings for me :/ i understand if u dont :'( ... i wish you werent mad at me.. i really do love you and no one else, and id really like to see you :) ♥ i hope you can forgive me and we can move on the way we both wanted it to be, just me and you ♥ text me or something.I ♥ U
I'm still so skeptical over the whole message and if this is his true intentions/feelings. Should I call him? What do you guys think I should do? I know my best friends would probably say leave it be and ignore it but I just don't feel like I can do that without having that message stuck in my head replaying over and over again. Sigh.
I'd give him another chance even though he is your ex it seems like what he said to you he truely meant every word he wouldn't of said it if it wasn't true i don't think he'd lie to you he probably has feelings for you even though the both of you aren't dating meet up with him where you'd like and just hear him out and see what he has to say then decide for yourself what you'd like to do from there :)
okay, so i'm really shy and quiet when i'm around people i don't know very well. i usually have a habit of looking at the ground when i walk, and i have a hard time opening up to people because i'm afraid of being rejected. but it seems like certain people (in certain situations or places almost everyone), almost hate me before even knowing me because of it. i've heard that sometimes shy people can come-off as being stuck-up or snotty, but it's not like if somebody smiles at me i won't smile back, i'm very friendly as long as other people are first so i won't feel like they might reject me... if that makes sense. when i think of stuck-up people, i usually think of people who walk around thinking they're better than everybody else, constantly pointing out people's flaws, mean and cruel in general to other people even if they don't know them. i don't think i'm like that at all. i love people i just don't have a very high self esteem so it's hard for me to open up, and i wait for other people to smile or say hi first, then i will back. what should i do? is it me or them?
Be confident believe in yourself confidence is key
everyone gets nervous sometimes it's normal but you can't let your nerves get the best of you i think most people are afraid of being rejected you aren't alone this may sound strange but
practice what you want to say to others that way when you do actually speak you won't be as nervous and shy just be confident and believe in yourself and you should be fine :)
The past year or so, I've been feeling very nervous in social situations, around friends and in school. The really weird part is, I used to be the biggest party girl and really outgoing, someone who would always speak her mind and just talk to anyone. Now, I find myself shy, closed-off, and very introverted. I'm in college now, and I should be having a great time.. but I don't like being with groups of people or even raising my hand in class. When I'm called on in class, I get so nervous even if I know the answer completely! Going up to the front of the class for a presentation? A complete nightmare. What happened to me all of a sudden? I don't understand this. I just want to be the calm, cool and collected girl again.
You've got to be confident believe in yourself don't let your nerves get the best of you think postively not negatively if you do you will make yourself feel worst and the situation won't get better take a deep breaths to calm down and relax everyone gets nervous it's normal college is way tougher then high school and i think your just becoming over whelmed with stress and all the work you've got to do your in control of your life
if you don't like something then change whatever you aren't happy with until your satisfied :)
well I've been dating this guy for about 7 months & my mother knows about him but she doesn't want to let me go out with him because she says im to young ( im 13 ) & I think she's afriad because she thinks ima become out pregnant or something but at least I want her to meet him , my mother is the type of person that you can't have a serious talk with , & im scared of havinq a serious talk w| her she's always being sarcastic & im tired of lieinq to her bout hanqinq outt with him but I love him and I don't wanna losse him just because of her , so what do I do ?
You've got to talk to your mother and explain to her how you feel say that you'd like for her to take you seriously assure her that you aren't going to become pregnant and you'd like her to trust you seeing as your her daughter tell your mother to give your boyfriend a chance he deserves one and not jump to conclusions so quickly talking is your best option things will move forward once you do it's better then keeping everything your feeling bottled up inside and not telling your mother anything at all you'll probably feel better once you get everything out in the open :)
My name is Taryn and I am 17 years old. I was dating this guy, Trevor, for a few months, and we were pretty happy. But then someone from my past came back,Allen, and I had hated him for the longest time because of what we went through. But I don't hate him anymore. Trevor and I started fighting because of it. I became unhappy. But Allen just left for the marines, and i miss him like crazy. We hung out the day before he left and I was happy again.
Me and Trevor tried to be good again, but he made a big deal about me wearing allens hoodie in a picture on facebook. i broke up with him because i'm tired of the bullcrap. so were on a 'break' now.
i don't know what to do, or who to choose. I'm so confused. please help me.
thanks
Give yourself time to calm down your confused and most likely upset stay single until you become happy again right now you don't need a relationship sadly Allen probably won't be coming
anytime soon there's nothing you could do about that or the fact that you aren't dating Trevor anymore focus on living your life and once you feel ready to date again go for it there's plenty of other boys out there stay positive don't think negative that will only make the situation worst hopefully Allen will find some way to contact you be patient and wait :)
Hope things work out!
in the winter, my eyes get VERY dry, so dry to the point where they water randomly and so badly it seems like I'm crying, and it stings. is there anyway to treat this? i don't want people to think i'm randomly crying in school!
Yes it's treatable just go to the store
and buy some rewetting drops they are sold at most stores once you feel your eyes starting to become dry put the drops in and they will keep your eyes moist :)
A brand you could use is called Optifree there's
also other brands too you've got to choose which
one you'd like & stick with it!
Alright so the german guy I was talking to ya.....
so tonight I went to my friends house and we were talking...please dont say anything I know this was stupid....but I created another profile on wkw of someone else a very pretty girl. So I put ti up found him and asked for his friend request. So a few hours later I get on mine...nothing but than I get on hers....he freaken added her! Ugh so that mad me so mad so I sent him a message saying :
you know instead of doing that you could've just
had the descency to tell me that you didn't want
to meet up but hey I guess I was right later
Well no my emotions are starting to catch up with me some more and i'm thinking straight. I'm still pissed off but at the same time I;m so sad that this would happen...just I kinda regret sending that message but I kinda dont I just...now I have a feeling he reall wont talk to me anymore and I mean if that was the case than fine good ridence...but I just still feel so sad in a way I dont know what to do becuase I know in my heart I still wanna talk to him but he hasn't gotten on still to the point wher eI can reall just talk to him...help? lol
Try and talk to him apologize say your sorry see what he says try telling him that you made a mistake and that you'd like a second chance to make things right again and prove yourself if he doesn't give you one or the conversation goes nowhere then move on things weren't meant to be between you two if any of that happens there are plenty of other boys out there who will you treat you with respect you deserve better then him :)
Hi. I dont know if you'll actually answer back but... I am a 19 year old female. My boyfriend and I have been dating for a while now, and we had sex like 4 weeks ago. I was due for my period a week ago today, and still havent gotten it. Im not under any stress, and my life isnt out of any order or anything like that. My breasts hurt, and i have a weird pain in my abdomin. My boyfriend informed me that he ejucaulated in me, and didn't pull out. So, I dont know if I am just over seeing this, and I should just ignore it, or if I should take action. Thank u
I don't think you should ignore it seeing as it's dealing with your health the best thing to do is take action and go see a doctor they'll be able to tell you whether or not your preganant or you can take a pregnancy test to check it's possible that you could be seeing as you said you aren't under any stress plus you missed your period but your best bet is to visit a doctor that way you aren't wondering if your pregnant or not and you'll know the truth and the situation will get straightened out the doctor could probably give you some medication for the pain your feeling :)
Good luck!
help me out here of what to do if you can.(:
so there is this guy who i really like and who likes me. we have known eachother for like a year or so and we have talked talked a couple times but this time it was for real, we would be textinng almost everyday of every second. and this week he has came see me everyday. but now he just wont even talk to me. he tells me that he wants me to tell him how i feel and about my problems so that he can atleast try to help and i do tell him but two nights ago he was over and i just started ignoring him and being really quiet and he asked me what is wrong and i told him that i feel like he is using me because he dont bother to ask me out or anything, we act like we date, we kiss all the time and hold hands and all but he just dont bother to ask me out. my friend said that i am his make out buddy but i do kinda feel like it. i know that he likes me and that he isnt using me but i dont know what it is. yesterday i texted him asking if he even wants to date me and he said i do.. just not now and i asked why and he said just dont and i told him to tell me but he didnt reply but then later we talked on the phone for like one hour and nothing wrong but if i text him, he wont text back. i just want to know why he dont want to date. it dont make sense. and sometimes i feel like that im chasing him to much. sorry that its long. i rate 5.
I'd give him a chance and wouldn't jump to conclusions everyone deserves chances at least one even him things could change be patient wait
and see what happens be postive thinking negative makes not only yourself feel worst but the situation worst too he could be busy i don't think
he'd ignore you seeing as you two have been through alot together try and confront him about
how you feel maybe that will make him stop acting
the way he is and he'll act differently towards you :)
Every time I make friends with a guy, they treat me like a kid sister. I am teased so much! It's nothing offensive, just playful, but I don't know what to think.
Like if they look at my homework assignments, they pick on me for being too neat, or the way I write my 6's, or the way I talk. They have to say something about everything, I try to laugh it off, but it gets really old! I think we are friends, am I wrong?
Am I dealing with jerks, or am I just being too touchy? To be fair, this happens when we talk about anything, it drives me crazy!
I think your just dealing with jerks they are probably doing what they are doing to you to see
if it will affect you just move on and live your life ignore them and maybe they'll get bored and stop try telling them that what they are doing is getting really old and your tired of them doing it
to you stand up for yourself :)
So, i am a teenager, 14 years old. my mom's age is 64!!!! I CANNOT BELIEVE IT :'( this is too old for me. i cannot stop worrying. all my other friends have moms who are only 38 or who just turned 40. :( so unfair. my moms like old. this is hurts me. I AM ONLY 14 AND MY MOM IS 64. what do you think of that????
Well your age is just a number nothing more
it's not a big deal there are more important
things to worry about then your mothers age you can't change her age so just live your life and move on :)
I am 23 years old and I am lost. I feel no need to live or breathe anymore. I have been with the same guy for 8 years and he stole my best friend my maid of honor from me. He lies to me about her but inssits that nothing is going on. I asked him to back off but then he makes me feel guilty for making him not friends with her. I can never do anything right by him or by anyone else for that matter. I can't turn to anyone b/c they turn right back around and tell him. i attempted suicide one time before but I took too many pills and it felt like someone had punched me in the gut. I recoverd with out telling anyone. I am getting ready to kill myself now. My ex best friend just called and said she was done with me and that her and my b/f were friends anyway. and they work together b/c he is the manager he can do anything. I just want this all to be over and everyone get their cut out of my life insurance. I won't be missed I just wanted to be happy in life...to be something worth wild but i'm told I am not ..to often so the bad wins over the good this time I guess. I don't have anyone. I don't want to burden my mom b/c we just found out she has cancer again and I don't really have a dad...so what can i do...nothing just slip away into darkness before my fiance gets home...maybe then all the pleading and begging I did won't be funny to him anymore...then he pick up where i made him leave off 8 years ago.
Killing yourself isn't going to help the situation
i'm sure you'll be missed you've got to think postively and not negatively just when you think
you've got it bad there's always another person out there who is worst off then you..you don't
need people in your life who are going to abandon you just move and live your life you don't deserve to be treated poorly you've got to have confidence and believe in yourself don't listen to the negative comments others tell you commiting
sucide isn't going to help so please don't do it :)
im a 18 year old female...i have had some pretty bad things happen to me....when i was about 13 or 14 my mom went crazy and kind of beat me up...i moved in with my dad and when i 16 he died...every since these 2 things ive been on edge....everything usually makes me really sad and i cry or very angry and i cry anyway...i have been having bad thoughts, not about me but about the people who upset me...i have a lot of problems with myself too....i dont have much confidence and im afraid of rejection which is stoping me from getting a job and i really need one...icant seem to control my emotions very well and that bothers some people...i dont know whats wrong with me....well i guess my question is...WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?? and WHAT SHOULD I DO??
Well your thinking about all the bad stuff that has happened to you which is causing you to be upset and be emotional that's understandable but try to think positively thinking negatively will only make you feel worst also the situation won't get any better try talking to someone you trust talking goes a long way it's better then keeping everything your feeling inside and not saying anything at all that could be your problem your not talking and just keeping your emotions bottled up and then your anger comes out :)
Good luck!
So there is this guy... that I really like. The problem is that he's 17 and I'm 14, almost 15. We've been through a lot together and I'd like to, well, go out with him.
But is the age difference too much? Won't it be illegal considering he is almost 18? Would you go for it?
It could be illegal seeing as your a minor and he'd be legal if you want to ask him out i say go for it it's worth a shot and if something doesn't go the right way you'll still know you tried it's better then not doing anything and you ending up regretting it later your age is just a number nothing more but go for it see what happens take a chance :)
Hello
I don’t know what to do. I’m 25 and have been dating my girlfriend for over two years now. She is in graduate school and has a big test this January. For Christmas my parents wanted to surprise me with a week long cruise in early January for me to go on with my parents and girlfriend. This was supposed to be a surprise and I only know about this cruise because my girlfriend told me. Originally it worked out so that my girlfriend was able to go with us because her test was scheduled in March. Now that her test has been moved to January, and if she misses this she will be kicked out of the program, it doesn’t sound like she will be able to go. My girlfriend doesn’t want me to go on the cruise and leave her while she is taking this test.
I feel like that I’m in a loose/loose situation. If I turn down the cruise I hurt my parents and if I go I hurt my girlfriend. I feel like each side is pulling at me and its unfair to me. It's unfair for my parents to make plans for me with out my knowledge (which I can’t even talk to them about because I’m not supposed to know) and unfair for my girlfriend to ask me not to go, to give up my present. I’m very confused and don’t know what to do… Please help with any advice. Thank you.
Do what feels right to you i think you should stay with your girlfriend seeing as if she misses
the test the consequence will be that she gets kicked out of the program i think that's more serious then the cruise is there will always be many chances to go on crusies and vacations in the future possiblity be loyal and dependable for
your girlfriend and not go seeing as she didn't want you too :)
my boyfriend used to smoke alot of weed his freshman and sophomore year (hes a senior now) he hasn't done it since but today he told me he did. when i told him that i didn't like it and he knows that he told me not to worry and that he won't become a pothead. but idk...like i don't want to be the pushy gf that yells at him for doing it...then he's gonna feel like he has to hide it from me...but idk i just don't want my boyfriend to do that then me having to kiss him...what should i do?
If he told you not to worry and that he won't become a pothead then you should trust him and believe him being in a relationship means being able to trust one another i don't think he'd lie to you he'd be honest things may change and he may stop completely be patient and wait see what
happens hopefully he'll stop since you said to him
that you didn't like him doing it :)
I have a friend named *Leya* and she started to ignore me all of a sudden. So we got into this fight where she wouldn't tell me what happened. And finally she told the reason was because im obnoxious and annoying and stupid. I don't know what happened because i've always been nice and complimented her. I sit alone now in the back of the cafeteria because all my friends hate me. I don't get what happened between us. It makes no sense....I don't know what to do. I don't eat any more and i usually end up crying a lot. She told me she hated me and that we weren't meant to be friends. I just....Ugh!!!! I don't know what to do! I have no friends and everyone hates me! Even my Best Freind since pre K! Please! Anyone please help me!!! Please!
I'd ignore them and move on you don't need people like that in your life or those that create drama
you can make plenty of other friends those that will treat you better you don't deserve to be treated like how your friend treated you that's wrong she wasn't a real friend if she called
you those names and decided to simply ignore you i wouldn't let it affect you i'd continue eating your food at lunch if it makes you feel any better
i used to sit alone at lunch too you can always make new friends but it's your choice what you'd like to do :)
