Q: I like this guy. I'm in highschool and he's a grade behind me. He likes me, but says there's something about me that just makes him so mad when we go out and I can't figure out what it is. He said it wasn't anythinglike I was being mean or flirting with other guys. How can I make him either, a.- tell me what the problem is or b- go out with me again. Just try it. I tried talking to him numerous times but he just keeps saying he doesn't want to tell me.

Tell him that you cannot stop doing what you're doing to make him mad if you do not know what it is. Tell him that you would really like to know so that you can IMPROVE, not just have the information. Tell him that a flaw kept equals a flaw that never goes away.
Or, if he drinks, just get him drunk. People blab all the time once they are drunk. :)
Hope this helps!

Boys mature at an older age than girls. Girls usually mature starting at age 10 or 11, and in 5th grade, they are usually the same height as the boys. Yet, in around 7th or 8th grade, and the boys start to grow, and they become taller and gain more weight.
I'm male, but for some reason, my growth spurt came around the same time as the girls. A picture of me with this kid I know showed me to be at least a foot talled than him. That was a 7th grade picture. Now, he's as tall as me. It's just the time of developement.
You are also probably a tall girl for your age, judging by what you wrote, so that explains a lot as well. One girl was the tallest in her class, it was kind of scary...
Hope this helps!

Q: my brother is really spoiled. Here are some reasons why:
*he gets whatever he wants
*whatever he does i get blamed for-no joke.
*when he wants friends over, he can have them over (I cant.)
*if he slaps me or hits me or punches me, even if i dont say anything or touch him, i get yelled at. EVERY TIME.
*one time my friends came over and he started just peeing his pants right there and my friend and i told my mom and she didnt believe us even after my brother admitting it because she thinks hes "perfect" and would never do anything like that.
--this gets VERY annoying VERY often. I really wanna change this but whenever i tell my mom how i feel she goes "Oh please..grow up I never baby him" when she knows she treats him differently. I cant even have friends over without him around us!! please help me! what can i do???
Im 14/f hes 9/m

You do need to talk to your mom again. But, this time, do not go along the lines that she treats him too good. Go along the lines that you and him are not treated equally.
I would probably start off by asking "Mom, who do you love more? Me or my brother".
If she says your brother, then you can immediately blame her for having favorites, tell her that she's a bad parent, and storm out of the room. For me, the ability to do that would be pretty fun. But, more seriously, if she says that she loves you equally, ask "The why does he get to do things I cannot? Why does he get friends over when he wants, and I don't? Why does he have to be around when I do have friends over? Why does he get whatever he wants? Why does he never get in trouble, and I'm always the one to blame?" and ask her to answer each question in turn, not just say "I don't." Ask for a reason, a proof. For instance, with "Why does he get whatever he wants?" ask her to give you an example of a time he did not get what he wanted, and how long ago it was. Then tell her the last time you didn't get something that you wanted. Same thing can go for the blame game as well.
Eventually, you should be able to cause some real damage to her argument that she does not baby him. Once she gets through the end, you should have shown her that in each question, you were at a disadvantage. Ask her then "So, if he is 9, which is old enough to have responsibility, why do you let him have an advantage over me?" That should be where you either get another opportunity to yell at her and storm out of the room, or get what you want.
Hope this helps!

Q: Ok see i have a boy friend and iv "had him" since last year, and now that the year is about to start soon we might be in the same classes...his cous said when she was in the same situation the first week of school they broke up. what do you think is going to happen?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There was a reason they broke up, and it was not because they had the same classes. It was because they had to have gotten into a pretty bad fight or decided to break up for some other reason. People do not break up because of having certain classes together, it is not a reason, therefore, it is no guarentee.
Yet, having more classes together means that you will be spending more time with your boyfriend. More time means that there is more time for a potential fight. That is where to worry. But, I do not think this is going to happen. If you two have gone out for near a year, you do love each other. That makes a potential fight not be likely.
Well, I hope this helps!

Q: Can i simply have a yes or no answer to this question:
My brother used to put his hands down the back of my trousers and grab my butt and stuff like that, i told him to stop but he wouldnt. is this abuse?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Definately yes. Anything that anyone does that makes you feel unconfortable that they continue after telling them to stop is abuse. Definately tell your dad or mom first, and if you already have, and he still does it, go to the police. Warn him first that you will report him to the authorities if he still does things like this.

Q: Is an orgasm the same thing as cumming? If it helps I am 13/f
Thanks!
|
|

|

|

|

No. Orgasming is right before "cumming". It's just an intense feeling you have for a few seconds. The actual release is the "cumming".

Q: hey...well within the last year i have become christian. but lately i have been having my doubts. i have depression, and have had it for about 2 years now. i pray so much but i dont seem to be making any progress to becoming happier. i dont understand why my prayers arent getting answered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
God will answer every single one of your prayers, and you may get something you want, but it may not be specifically what you want. For instance, a person may pray for a house, and find a cardboard box lying somewhere in the street a week later. That person may not realise it, but that was the answer to his prayer.
Yet, most are not like that. You may pray to be happier. God gives you it, but not in a permenent fashion. You may pray one day and the next get a call from a friend inviting you to come over. It's a gift from god.
Sufferring from depression for nearly a year now, I can relate to the doubts. Yet, God created this world such that people would have doubts. He wanted to see that the people who believed in him did not need proof to believe in him. that is where the faith comes in. God tests you and compells you to do his bidding, as he wishes to see if you are fit to enter heaven. He gave you this challenge for a purpose, and you need to overcome it.

Q: after someone is running around like playing / practicing soccer / basketball / any sport or just running.. what is the best thing to drink and eat? so that your body goes back to its normal rate...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Water is the best thing to drink. Even if gatorade says it's better, water is the more natural thing to drink. Get some water. And I cannot imagine eating after a sport, but crackers would probably be best then.
Hope this helps!

Q: how are you supposed to respond to guys when they open up to you and tell you something personal... like that their dad has cancer, they are still in love with their ex, or their parents are getting divorced? i know how to comfort my friends that are girls, but guys, i dont know what to say... i'd really appreciate any ideas.
|
|

I tried to imagine what I'd want to hear, and I got this:
"I'm truely sorry. If you ever need me for confort, I am always here. Just tell me the word and I'll stop immediately what I'm doing."
Well, the in love with the ex, I cannot say because I've never gone out with anyone yet...

Go to www.Bipolar.com and it should help you. But, you may want to check these symptoms and see if you have any. If so, consult a doctor.
needing little sleep yet having great amounts of energy
talking so fast that others cannot keep up with the thought pattern
having racing thoughts
being so easily distracted that their attention shifts between many topics in just a few minutes
having an inflated feeling of power, greatness, or importance
doing reckless things without concern about possible bad consequences (eg, spending too much money, engaging in inappropriate sexual activity, or making foolish business investments)

If you want one of the best things you can do, it is to go out to a video game store (Or something like that), and buy a game called "Dance Dance Revolution". I have heard of people losing 20 pound in a year through it. It is highly addicting, giving you the motivation, and it has some good songs on it, although you really concentrate mostly on the dancing. It improves your dancing as well. Just get into it, and you should be fine.

Q: What do you guys think is the appropriate age and/or grade to start wearing mini skirts? Also, do tall girls with long legs look good in mini skirts? Thanks!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To me, it's appropriate at 14, assuming the girl does not look that bad. And yes, you'd be surprised. See, a mini skirt on somebody tall seems to reveal more leg, and guys like that. Take it from a guy, I'd know.

Well, there's a pad I use for face acne called "Stridex". It works amazingly well after about 3 uses. You could probably use it for your back as well. It's over the counter, and really easy to use.

|

I suggest either Purple or Blue. Green make your head look really red, Gray highlights you too much, so a small flaw makes a huge difference, and Amber just usually does not work out for many people. I prefer blue, being male, but purple may look cute. :)

Q: what does drinking 8 glasses of water do for you? like will it help me lose some wieght?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Probably not. Unless you're using it as a subtitute for food. More likely, it'll add temporary weight. Let me explain.
At Jamboree, it was 100-120 degrees (Heat Index) outside pretty much every day. On the days it was nearing 120, we had to drink 1.5 gallons of water a day, and when it was lower, around 0.5. Well, I drank about 3 gallons and 1 gallon. I gained 5 pound, even though I had to have sweated off 5. So, I was the same weight. After 3 days of peeing, I lost 5 pounds. That is all water.
So, it will not help you lose weight, but if you drink it for exercise reasons, you will after you stop for a few days.
Hope I didn't confuse you too much...

Q: Hey. I'm so close...so close to killing myself. Everyday I have to FIGHT not to, its the hardest thing i've ever done. My mom knows... im seeing 3 colnsulars.. but nothing helps. Nothing at all makes me want to live anymore. It hurts to talk, it hurts to smile... I've stopped doing everything i used to love. Nothing can make me happy. I don't want to hurt my friends though, their the only ones keeping me from..ehh. If you cant help me, please do..

I really know exactly how you are feeling, I've really been feeling quite terrible this past day, feeling like not going on. All I'm doing is I'm thinking about my friends, and thinking of what their reactions would be if I did. I'm also thinking of my parents, and how awful it would be for them.
But, the main thing which I'm doing is laying out each problem that is causing me to feel this way, and trying to find a solution or a comfort in each. If you contact me at sbloemeke2@yahoo.com, I'd love to help you which each problem that is making you feel this way. Heck, I'll mentor you as long as you want, even... One girl and I are going on our 5th month mentoring.
What I want to advise you to do first is to just not do it. It's not worth it, as you still have an entire life to live, and it just gets better past the teenage years.
Just contact me, and we'll talk.

Q: What energy food/drink gives you the most energy and makes you hyper?

I think there's one that you are advised on the can to not drink more than 3 a day, as it has so much caffeine, sugar, and good stuff. I think it's SoBe, but I may be wrong. It is a good energy drink though.

THE PENGUIN RULES ALL! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! *Cough*
Hello! My name is Steven, and I am a mentor. Yes, that does mean that I help other people. I have helped over 1000 people to date, and have helped some individuals for over 1/2 a year. The miracle of my life occurred 17 years ago. I say miracle only because 1/4 babies survive to be born.
I am the first born of 2 children, and I am also the black sheep. I listen to Classical Music, so you can call me a weirdo. :P. I have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, so take no offense if my answers never seem to end.
In school, I get As and Bs. More Bs really. I play trombone, and was the section leader of the trombones at my school. This year, I am the captain of the entire brass section. I am an Eagle Scout, so I guess that says I'm persistant? You make the call. I am a 3 time varsity letter winner, looking for a 4th next winter. I also participate in the musical, where I am a Bass 2. :)
I am straight, and have never had a relationship beyond a friend. However, I have survived the bumps in the road, and can advise you if you wish it. Though, it's not my strength.
I'm here for you, and only you. That means that my advise will not always confort you. Heck, it may even scare you. Yet, I want you to do what is best for your mind. Not what is typically seen as best for you, but what YOU see best for YOU. Heck, if you wanted what was seen as best for you, you would've asked your parents what you should do. They give you what's typically best.
Alright, before I start getting tendinitis from writing that over and over again, I'll just say what I mean. I mean that if you ask me about something, let's say walking 10 miles a day, and I think it's rediculous, yet you are asking for something to do, I am NOT going to say "10 miles is the type of a thing a anorexia athletica would do. Try 5." I'll give you something to do.
Oh, and I'm a L1 moderator, which means I rate questions.
Don't hesitate to IM me, I'm usually on. If I'm not, just drop one in the Inbox!
Oh, by the way, I am liberal in everything. That means that abortion is a woman's RIGHT, and gay marriage should be LEGAL.
Ask away!
