Maybe he doesn't want to ask you out beacause he is afraid it would ruin your friendship together.

okay.. me and this guy have been "talking.." like.. we like each other.. and me and his ex girlfriend DONT like each other.. well.. she IMed me last night.. and she was like.. " i just wanted to tell you im sorry and i dont hate you.. im just jelous of you because you have the one thing i want.. " and then she was being super nice.. well.. today.. he came over to my house.. and she called his cell and was telling him all these lies about me... ( she didnt know he was at my house ) okay.. so i got on the phone and i was like.. "um.. hes busy.. bye!" and then she wrote my advice column saying all this stuff about me.. and i dont know what should i do? should i end things with him?

Don't end things with this guy because his ex is a bitch. Who cares what she thinks about you anyway, and as for spreading lies about you to whoever, who cares no one will remember by next week anyway. Just ignore her and she find someone else to bitch at.

ok, i really want bangs. i have long blonde hair and i think it would wrap the look up. people say i should but then there is someone called my MOM who says i cant! it pisses me off because she doesnt let me do anything to my hair! how can i convice her?

Ok I would either: Go get them cut without her or, start to cut them so there not short enough to be bangs and then cry and beg her tho take you to the salon to get it fixed

I have straight hair already, but it is pretty static and VERY flyawayish...and its kinda bushy sometimes...what is the best hair straightener out there? I've heard ceramic hair straighterners are good??

Get the new Wet 2 Straight by Remington.(Its ceramic so it wont damage your hair.)You can use it on your hair when it is wet or dry. It's made to use on wet hair and it won't steam it,and it dries while it straightens so you don't have to blow dry your hair first so it takes less time. I works good for me!

Hi. OK, Some nights i get these staining feelings in my calf (i think it might be called a 'charly-horse' but im not sure) anyway i get them every once in a while like if i work out that day and i didnt stretch enough...but i havent worked out in like a week and i have been getting them a lot more than usual...i dont know why...they hurt so but, it feels like someone is trying to pull my muscle out, like i have to get up and stand on it or sqeeze it really hard for it to stop and there is still an after feeling and it even goes on till the next day....does anyone know what this is, and how i can stop them and how to make them feel better when they come....thanks!

That always happened to me, you just have to eat more potassium.(Its in bananas and orange juice) then it won't happen as often. (Hardly at all)

I hate my life and myself. My parents love me and all, but all we do is fight. My friends and I are fighting, I'm not good enough for any boyz, and I'm always finding myself getting mad. I don't think i'm that ugly, and boys tell me I am. THey like the popular girlz. Please help me. What do I do with myself?

Who gives a shit what they think "they" are just shallow losers anyway! And your friends most likely think you're the greatest otherwise the wouldn't hang out with you, and friends get into fights all the time. And you should love life because it is soo funny sometimes!

my boyfriend is always pressuring me to have sex. i'm not a virgin, which i told him, but i dont think i am ready to have sex with him. i mean we have been going out for 4 months, but i really dont think i am ready for that kind of commitment. the last and first guy i had sex with was my first love we had known each other since we were 3. me and him are still friends and my boyfriend always gets jealous of me talkin to him. he also cussed me out various times in person and on the phone. i really dont know what to do about this and i KNOW i cant ask my mom cuz she would go and cuss him out. 17/f/ga

You should totally dump his ass! What a loser! It sounds like your friend treats you better anyway!

im 14/f...and the hair that i have above my upper lip has gotten really dark and noticeable...its embarassing...my mom says not to shave it, im scared to get it waxed, it hurts when you pluck it, and well is there anything else?!

Do NOT shave it, wax it, or pluck it, honestly just BLEACH it...totally, I swear it'll be better and you only have to do it like every three months, and the bleaching kit is only like $5 at the drug store and it lasts along time.

Okay this may sound really dumb or something but it really needs to be answerd cause i really need the help.My friend had wanted to kill herself and then her mom had put her into a center to get the help that she needs(good for her!!).But the problem is that she is on drugs and she drinks a lot and she is only 12 or 13 years old.Well i tries to kill myself a few weeks ago and now i'm fine but my question is that should i be her friend still and hang out with her even though that she wanted to do something that i tried?Cause my fear is that she will want me to think of doing that again?Plzz help.
Thanks again

I think you should still be friends. Then you both will always have someone to talk to. Also you will always be able to relate because you went through the same things.

What are some good, quick, easy ways to gain self confidence and self esteem? And to be able to be more outgoing?

You just need to relax and not worry about what other people think about you, because your friends only think good things of you and people who don't aren't your friends. This is a lesson that learned a while ago: learn to laugh at yourself! If you fall down the stairs at school, Laugh at yourself, and let your friends laugh too,because life is funny like that sometimes, and before you know it you'll have so much self esteem and self confidence!

Theres this one girl in my dorm...she CANT spell. A freshmen in college and she cant spell little words, she simply doesnt know how. The word good, she spells gud. She cant even spell little words and this concerns me. She isnt doing well in her classes at all because of this reason. Me and my roommate edit her papers and we try to tell her that she really needs to learn how to spell properly, but she doesnt care. She cant rely on me and my roommate to save her but on every paper. Should I tell her to go to a tutor (which she probally wont go), or let her fend for herself? I tried to help her learn, but I get mad at her everytime I try.

Here's my advice: buy her an electronic spell checker for her birthday. then she can put in the words and it will tell her how to spell them even if the word is badly spelled. I hope this helped.

How do you do a messy bun? I've looked all over the web to try and figure this out. Maybe I'm just not seeing it, who knows. Can anyone help me?

Ok first whenyou pull your hair into a ponytail don't pull it all the way through. Then get a second hair tie and put it over. i hope that helped because it is really hard to explain.

hey!! i have a chance to try out for my high school musical (i'm in 8th). It requires singing and dancing, so i definitely have a chance with the dancing part. but with the singing, i'm not bad but there are a couple of better people. does any one have any tips on what i can do... like projection, that sort of thing. thanks!

Don't worry about it. When you sing make sure you smile and, that you sing loud. Don't worry about being to loud either, just go in there and sing your heart out! Even if you don't get a major role ask to do a chorus role or stage crew, that way it will show the director that you are really interested in this and then next year they may consider you for a bigger part.

Well, my brother told me that if you put up blue christmas lights it meant that you were Jewish. So does anyone know if this is true or is my brother smoking something? Thanks!!

xo_sherry_ox
I rate 5's!

Wow, that's the dumbest thing i've ever heard! Jewish people don't even celebrate Christmas, so they don't need to put up Christmas lights. Yeah and your brother is definetly on something.
