hi im 13 female,
so anyway i thought i was going to my dads house last friday so i asked my best friend if she wanterd to come ( cos my dad wants me to bring friends or whatever) and she said sed like to but she cant because she was going to a horseshow and to dinner for her moms friends birthday. so anyway i was ok with that but it turns out my dad was stuck in CA so he wouldnt be back till saturday so i coudnt go to his place. So i called up my friends house and asked if she culd look after me (cos my mum had to go away which was why i was going to dads in the first place) but my friends mom said that she was at my other friends house having a sleepover. So i called her and she was like "Oh yeah im not going to dinner they moved it to tomrow, but me and -other friends name- are going to get pizza with some other people do u wwant to come?" so i said no because i had to find some place to stay. But i think she was lying about the dinner to get out of coming to see me and i feel really offended and stupid cos shes my best friend so i was wondering what i should say or do?

EDIT-- Okay well you didn't say that. That's your fault, not mine. So, rating me 4 brings down my average rating ALOT. Thanks...

I do that so many times. It's really okay. She probably WAS lying, only because she didn't want to hurt your feelings. She already had plans for a sleepover, so she didn't want to just cancel her plans to go with you. So instead of being rude and telling you that she was going to a sleepover, she told you she had to do something NOT fun to make you happy. Seriously, I do this alot. Just because I love my friends and don't want to upset them. It's alright. She's a good friend. :]


what are good songs about friends like im making a slideshow of my friends and i and i need a good song about friends but nothing gay (link)
It's either "You're My Best Friend" or "My Best Friend" by Queen, it's amazing.

whats a wife beater? (link)
A tank top. Because, I'm guessing that in all of the scary movies, the drunks that beat their wives wear those tank tops. So they came to be known as 'wife beaters.'


I have the website http://theymos.com , which offers free web design. I get a decent amount of hits, but very few requests for web design. If you were looking for free web design, is there anything on my site that would turn you away from it? Of particular interest is my request form, http://theymos.com/recieve.php , which seems to be a popular exit point; is there anything unappealing with the form? Thanks much,

It's just black and grey. It needs more color, but not too much. Really, you have to strain your eyes and it gives you a weird feeling, like lonely and unhappy. Maybe black/gray background, but font white and one other color. Like some kind of a blue, maybe? The form looks good to me, but yet again, it's the dark font and creepy background. Hope I helped.
Oh, and let me add. You should have a choice on the form: people that are good with HTML, and people that want it basic. Because, some people might want to just have a few questions and get it easy. But people like me, would like to have it where I can choose every color and font and everything. You know?


what are some rock rap remix's like i know ludicris and sum 41 did get back with rock music but rap lyrics im just looking for more songs liek that (link)
jay z and linkin park. AND id you like that type of music, you might like zebrahead, which have a guy called Ali as a rapper, and it really changes the music and makes it stand out from most punk rock.


13/f

ok hey, I have this really annoying cousin that thinks she's WAY better than everyone else. especially me.

ex: ok, like, whenever i get a bf and bring him over to the house to meet my mom or whatever, she'll constantly flirt with him and try to get him alone and certain stuff like that, just to boost her ego and pretty much show me that she can get any guy i can.

another ex: ok, so...we both sing, which is REALLY bad 'cause she always gets pissed if anyone says i sing better. like one day, me and her were sitting on my bed talking and her mom comes in and says "hey can you sing me a song" so of course, she leaps for the chance and starts singing and as soon as she does, her mom was like, "no marisa, i was talking to Nikki. maybe you can sing backup" and almost instantly (she needed a few seconds to let the shock blow over) she says " THERE IS NO WAY IM SINGING BACKUP FOR ANYONE!!!! ESPECIALLY NOT HER!!!!"

and she's always bragging about herself in some way like " omigod!!! Im like, sooo gonna start my own band and get all these super hott emo guys to be in it and of course, IM gonna be the lead singer!!! hahaha!!!" and then she calls herself fat just to hear people say shes skinny. and frankly, im just getting absolutely sick of it!!! Is there ANY way possible i can prove that she's normal, just like everyone else??? she's really getting on my nerves!!

sincerely,
Nikki (link)
yep, the answer below me is right. just wait and watch untill she matures, and then people will make her cry and what not, and you'll be able to sit back and watch her cry in a little corner, misserebly...it'll be fun, because like, it will :D..........either that, or approach her, and be all "yo, why be a bitch for? get an effin life hoe!" or something along the lines....hope i helped :D

i'm 16/f. i don't like drinking or smoking. my best friend used to have a lot of problems with drugs [weed and coke] and drinking. she was put into rehab for a month or two and she recently got out. she keeps drinking and i'm afraid she's going to relapse. she doesn't think she is going to relapse because she's not doing drugs. what could i say to her? i'm afraid to talk to her about it. thanks in advance. =] (link)
hey

explain to her calmly that what she is doing is very, very harmful to her body. don't accuse her, saying, "omg _____ YOU always drink!" like no then she won't listen to you. but if you just calmly talk to her "hey. look you're one of my really great friends, and i'm worried about you. you always drink, and i'm scared that you will permanently damage your body from all these harmful things you're doing to it. i think you should stop." be direct. don't be sarcastic. explain that you really care about her & she should listen to you because she is your best friend. you just gotta get her at a time when she's calm & relaxed. do it in a private place, like at your house. not at the movies or in a restaurant in case something happens, like she verbally / physically attacks you.


What is your definition of skinny enough and is my mom saying that I was overweight before and now I am skinny or am I reading too much into this: STORY: I am thin and A FEW DAYS AGO when I came home from work I changed into a tee-shirt but wore the same pants I wore to work. She asked me as I sat down to eat if I lost weight, and I said no, but this upset me. I said to her that she always tells me I look beautiful. She said you do look beautiful but your pants look bigger. And she told me that I am skinny enough." (link)
Uhm, you're over-reacting. Totally. Why the heck would this upset you? It might have been the lighting in the room, the pants my have hung lower, it could've been anything. Why are you freaking out about this? Plus, why does it matter if you lost weight? Why do you care? I'm missing the point. This is like the 10th question you've asked about this. FORGET IT. Seriously. Maybe you should go to a freaking psychiatrist.


what is Hyphy (link)
hey

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hyphy

make sure you read them all to get the gist of it :]


Okay, umm I don't know if this is how you spell it but what is seamen? (link)
hey

semen.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/semen
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=semen

the first one is the actual, factual definition.
the second one is what people our age think of it as.

it's pretty much the white stuff that comes out of a guy's penis when he gets horny. :]


if i squeeze my butt muscles throught out the day will i get a stronger, smaller muscular butt? (link)
hey

you will get a stronger muscular butt, but it may not necessarily be smaller because if you do it too much, it could just be big & muscular.

you have to do like reps of 25 or 50 or something. you can just do like, one butt squeeze when you get up to get a tissue and another when the fire alarm goes off and no one is paying attention to your butt. haha.

but if you meant like, 150 in the morning, 200 back from school, 150 before bed, then yeah. definitely. stronger butt. & if you have cellulite (gross, i know) then that will go away too.


hey what a cool and nice way to wear shoulder length blond hair? also i sometimes to have time to straighten it, is there anything i can do then? (link)
lol, love this question...my specialty because i have just about shoulder length blonde hair too!!! sorry back to question haha:
*curl your hair>if you have naturally curly hair TAKE ADVANTAGE...if not, after you take a shower, scrunch it with gel...if that doesnt work try to put hair spray in it (dont be stingy haha)you could also like braid your hair or french braid it and sleep on it...take out in morning (if doesnt work with dry hair you could try it with wet)
*put it up, i like to put mine half up half down, all up, some down, just a piece of it up, up to the side, side pony tail, brades.
*when straightening ur hair, take the straitener and at the tip of your hair, flip it up (turn the straitener side ways)
*if you wear ur hair curly, straighten like the top to the mid bottom, and leave the rest curly (of course i dont do that when there is gel or hair spray in my hair)
well i hope i helped!!! GoOd LuCk :-)


theres this guy i like but he doesn't think of me as anything. whats the best way to show him who i am? (link)
You could go up to him, maybe say hi once in a while. not like OMG HEY!!! lol but like, hey (name)little things like that to get him to notice you...try to join in on conversations, but dont just but in, work your way in smooth. If in case of emergencies, drop something by him or underneath him, if he doesnt notice, then ask him if he could grab it for you. If by any miracle he is reading a book at that time, bring up a conversation...ask him what chapter he is on. If he is doing work, and you have the same work, ask him to help you. best advice for last NEVER be affraid to let him notice you!!! :-) GoOd LuCk ps srry i am responding soo late my comp got a virus and i didnt have access for a while


hey there is this girl and she is really annoying. one of my friends was friends with her so i hung out with them in one class. but then the people at her lunch table were being really mean and kicked her out, so when she told me i felt bad and asked her to sit at my table to feel better. but now she sits there every day and is so annoying and clingy to me and the rest of my table. i don't want to be mean like her old table but what should i do????
x0x stuck in the middle x0x (link)
There's a stick situation lol, maybe you could try to start conversations on topics you like so that maybe...just maybe she will spark and amaze you with some same interests. You could also give off little hints about being mature, like you dont have to laugh at all of the non funny jokes if you know what i mean, but at the same time not being mean. Another possible thing you could do is try to get them to sit at the old table again and have them all make amense. GoOd LuCk ps srry i got back to you soo late, my comp got a virus and i didnt have access for a while :-)


this is my last math question, thank you guys so much.

Robert wants to have a mean of 150 for his bowling scores. He has bowled 137, 165, 142, and 139 in his first 4 games. He will bowl one more game. What is the least score that he can have in his fifth game to have a mean of 150?

133
143
157
167 (link)
hey

the answer is 167.

this is what i did:
i added 137 + 165 + 142 + 139 & divided that number by 4 to find the average.

then, i added the total of the four numbers (583) & added each of the choices to 583. & divided each one by 5.

the only one that came up to 150 was 167.


ok so everyone in my grade is having crushes on all these guys that i think are ugly and stuff and i am the only one who doesn't. do you think this is normal and i am just waiting for the right guy or i am going to be this way forever?
(link)
Dont worry, in my opinion, it is absolutely normal to like somebody else that...may not seem attractive to somebody else. All that matters is what you think of him, and if you like his personality. GoOd LuCk


i need to change my profile to private because im sick of my teachers looking at it. There's nothing bad on it but it's none of their business. So how can i make it private. I tried changing the setting but it doesn't work. (link)
hey

if you're logged in, you can see your own myspace when you click "view profile." so if you log out & click on your link on someone else's computer, it will most-likely be on private if you changed the settings correctly. so just try logging out & doing it. cause only you and your friends can see your myspace (when you're logged in).


Okay. For about a year and a half now, there's this guy I've had a HUGE crush on--I've never liked someone THIS MUCH. Anyway, I was talking to him on the phone and he ends up saying he met a girl at a track meet. Now he doesn't know I like him, we're friends. I faked a "That's great! Who is she?" as I punched the pillow on my bed. I was a little worried, but then he said he really liked her and was going to ask her out. And then what next? I practically died. I'm still happy for him though, because I want him to be happy, even if I'm not the one he likes. But it's been killing me. I don't want to tell him I like him--I don't think that would go very well. What should I do? (link)
hey

oh sweetie, i'm so sorry! that's a really tough situation to be in, but there are ways of handling it.

if i were you in your shoes, i would just wait it out & let time do it's thing. you didn't specify how old you are & that's okay, but it might affect my answer a little. if you are 13 / 14, they will most-likely break up (if he does ask her out) in like, a couple weeks. honest. if you are 15, 16, 17, they might be together for a little longer & have a more intricate relationship, but if you like him so much, it shouldn't matter. after they break up, you will feel a lot better.

my other suggestion is to simply tell him how you feel. he could possibly like you on the side, or perhaps he's trying to make you JEALOUS! so maybe you can consider just telling him how you feel & you guys can be happy :]

it sounds like you really, really like him. you are very mature for saying that you are still happy for him because he is happy despite the fact that he (possibly) doesn't like you.

anyway, don't worry too much. & you never know if you will stop liking him when they start going out and meet a better guy. so, perhaps it would be a better idea to just not tell him how you feel right now in case he doesn't feel the same way.

time solves most things :]


Ok well one of my close friend got into an argument with my little sister. So when there's nothing to tlak about with other peope my friend talks bad stuff about her and calls her a bitch.

And my sister always runs up to me during school at recess time (yeha really annoying) and then when she goes away my friend would like like "bitch..hope she gets run over by a car"

um..i think she's annoying sometimes but..kinda uncomfortable here! What can I do to shut my friend up nicely but not break our friendship?

The best friend talk thing,not us.
And I can't tell my sister to fuck off cuz she's super senstive

ugh..help me please? (link)
Be like "You know she's my sister, right?" Maybe that will wake your friend up. And to your sister, when she comes up to you, just ignore her, because she obviously comes up to you because she likes to talk to you. So just ignore her and they'll be nothing for her to talk to you about.
