It was my week to feed the dog and I totally forgot because I got so caught up on going to a a carnival thing where "famous" people were going. I kept getting out of the house with my friends looking for good clothes and stuff like that, you know getting ready. So I TOTALLY forgot about the dog and left the poor thing with no food. I know it was my fault but I didnt want to get grounded from going so I blamed it on my brother. I told my mom that we switched weeks and we didnt. My brother will not talk to me because hes grounded for the rest of the month since the dog is sick. And it really sucks because its summer! Well I want to tell my mom that it was really my week but I dont know if I should. I am driving myself INSANE over this. Please helppp!!

First of all, you shouldn't of lied to your mommy. Second of all, why didn't you feed the dog before you left. That shows your mom irresponsibility. Tell your mom the truth and she may understand. Good luck! Hope I helped!

I'm 13 and i'm looking for a way to earn some cash, and babysitting seems the best way, trouble is i dont really know anyone i could babysit! does anyone have any ideas on how i could find some customers??

Start a club with your friends. Send out fliers to get some good customers. Then your buisness should be underway! Good luck! Hope I helped!

My boyfriend is getting back from his 3 week trip to Texas & when he gets back, I want to do something special for him. What can I do to show that I missed him & that I'm really glad he's back?

Throw a party for him or give him a gift. Spend quality time together. Good luck! Hope I helped!

I go to a day camp, and there is this really nice boy there. His name is Josh, and I like him alot! I dont know what to say though. Im not sure if like he has ever had a girlfriend before and maybe he wont like me back and will never talk to me again. Please tell me what I should do!


-Britt

Just get to know him and be friends with him. Who knows. It may turn into something.

Ok..alot of the time when I call my friend she is "busy". It seems like she only hangs out with me when she wants to..What is her deal? And recently she got mad at me for the stupidest thing ever!! What is going on??
Thanks..

Maybe this is a hint she doesn't want to be friends anymore. Or she has a boyfriend. Either way, ignore it.

Okay so i'm going to be 14 in August and my period still hasent come yet. My boobs are VERY large for my size (4ft 11in and size 32B).I also masturbate so i dont know if that is affecting it, should i stop? My mom got her period at the age of 11 so i feel like something is wrong. I'm anxious to get my period because dont want to get it at like a really bad time( example: down the beach with my friend). At least if i have it i'll no what/when to expect it. ALL my friends have it so i also feel VERY left behind. Will rate for good advice. Please dont tell me i'm lucky i havent gotten it or its not that great to have, or ne thing like that. Much love, Please help!

Everyone gets their period at different ages. Just be blessed you don't have it yet.

So, my guy and I went ring shopping today and picked out rings.
The problem is gonna be my mom. He gave me an antique ring on valentine's day almost two years ago, and I've been wearing that one, but we picked one that will be sized to fit my left ring finger. Basically, we are engaged, but we're keeping it quiet until about halfway through college, when it'll be more acceptable to my parents.
This ring kind of looks like an engagement ring, but it's not a diamond. That's the only thing, though it is a single stone, which is symbolic enough. My mom is extremely against my getting married young (we're planning to get married in four or five years, so there's no rush at all, but my mom wouldn't understand that). I'm 17 and he's 19. I'll be 18 in October. Anyway, my mom's gonna freak out when she sees the ring on that finger, and essentially a wedding band on his.
What do I say to her?
Please, no smartass remarks. I'll just rate you down for stupidity.
Thanks in advance. =)

Just say, " Mom this is what I want and we will handle it. Please just accect the fact that we're getting married. I understand I'm young but I'm able to take charge of the situation."
Then she'll understand. Hope I helped!

me and my friend want to decorate our lockers to make them look really awesome but we want a bunch of ideas! anything girly and colorful attractive to the eye but no furry animal print any ideas or sites??? thanx bunches!!!

Pink is a great way to attract attention. But just enough not too much. Or put your favorite color on your locker. Get a picture of a guy you like or your boyfriend and put it on your locker. That will show how much you care.

what is there to do like between making out and sex(anykind)(i dont want to do it, but i want to do more than just make out)???
and if you want to tell me how,(ive never really done anything) that would be more than helpful if you explain what it is

5s if you answer it

Making out is kissing with toungue and sex is WAY more serious. Sex is something you do with the one you love, not the one you THINK you love.

[view]

Im from the uk. And we all have our own slang words or buzz words for things. What does making out mean in like american terms or to anyone really! All help greatley appreciated,
thanks
anthony

Making out is like kissing with toungue for a long period of time.

okay, i have a group of 4 friends that have a blast when we're all together. its me and another girl and 3 guys. Well i found out that 2 of the guys liked me.. and the thing is i like both of them too.. but i like one more.. but dont wanna hurt the other one. and so i tell them that i just want to be friends with all of them. and then i get a texted from the one i like more asking if i'd ever want to hold his hand, i told him i'd let him kno when the time comes. but ugh.. its so fustrating.. hope you can help!

Well it sounds to me that you just have to stay friends with all of them. The boy will understand you don't want to hurt the feelings of the other guy.

can my girlfriend and I rent a hotel room overnight and we're only 16? like do they check your age and parent permission and stuff or can you just rent a room and they dont care? thanks

I think they check ID so you have to have a parent there over 21.

me and my old best friend emma usta do EVERYTHING together. we were unseperable. i was over there everyweek end, and she came to maine with me wen ever she could.. but then after she went away for x-mas vacation, wen she got back, we just stopped hanging out. maybe because i became closer with my friends here? well im not sure.. but we havnt hung out in.. like 6 months!! any advice on how to get our best friend sparks flying again? pleasee comment with advicee =)

Well sometimes friends grow apart like couples. Suggest things to do with this girl and smile at her and keep in contact. All the stuff she likes, make an effort to do those things even if you don't want to. Maybe then will she be friends with you again.

Hey Everyone! Well recently I discovered that the guy I've been crushing on for a month doesn't like me, because of the 5 yr age difference we have. Every single time I start thinking about him (which is pretty often) I feel siick to my stomach with the knowledge of me not being able to have him. I need to find an alternative that can replace him> meaning whenever I think about hm, I can just do something else that will get my mind off of him> My ? is what should that alternative thing be?? I honestly think that I'm in love with this guy I'm never going to be able to have. I need a cure to get over him and find some1 else that I like better. Please help I'm desperate!

We all have had this expierence before. I'm in love with a guy who hates me. Just think of schoolwork or family. Anything to get your mind off this guy. Just think of what a jerk the guy is and find someone your own age!

me and this guy almost went out about 7 months ago and i basically got myheart broken. then about 2 weeks ago he e-mailed me saying he was sorry for leading me on and stuff and he wants to prove to me that hes nicer then that. so i emailed him back bascially saying don't worry about it and he'll have to prove it to me. so he said he was going to camp for a week but then when he gets back we'll hang out for sure. well hes been back for 2 days now and he hasn't IMed me or anything and i sent him an email about this drink he told me about saying it was good and he was like haha yeah thats why i love it. so yeah, should i bring up that we should hang out? i'm nervous to IM him or bring it up, especially since he isn't too shy of a guy and i think he woulda brought it up if he wanted to. i leave on thursday and won't be back for 2 weeks so time is pretty limited. what should i do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just e-mail him saying if you don't e-mail me back, I'm going to forget about you. If you really like this guy, keep your heart gaurded. The sweetest guy is liscenced to break your heart so be prepared.

Ok well I'm about to take my driving test for the third time. If I fail it one more time I have to pay $300 for lessons or wait till I'm 18. So I'm getting a little nervous about it. So does anyone have any tips for passing my test?

Just stay focused. Don't think of anything elsee but the road ahead of you. Make sure to check if everyone is buckled and CHECK YOUR MIRRORS! If you just stay calm and focused, it will be fine. Good luck! Hope I helped!

I wish i had best friends but i dont. I want to be friends with certain people but i dont know how to fit into heir group.

Just introduce yourself, take time to recognize them and smile. People like to be recognized.

16/female

My boyfriend and I have been dating for 8 months now, but he's been one of my closest friends for about 4 years. I truly am in love with him and I know this because I've never felt this feeling before. I won't get into that, however. He just graduated this year and is going to a college that is about 2 hours away. He promised me he'd be home as much as he can and I know he will, but I don't think I can go that long without him. He went on vacation for about 1 week out of the country and I was so upset. I couldn't stop thinking about him and was never happy during this time period. I think about him leaving all the time and how much I'll miss him. I don't know what I'll do without him..I've never had a boyfriend like him before. Should I try and overcome that feeling or try and find someone else. I really don't know what to do. I will greatly appriciate any other suggestions. Thank you.

Basically, if he goes to college, he'll cheat on you. Overcome that feeling and find someone else. Good luck! Hope I helped!

alright so iv been dating this guy for almost 9 months now and me and him broke up about 15 times and the last time we broke up was bc he lied to me about stuff he did with a girl (back at the pond he kissed her and she touched his dick n all this) and he lied about it he swore on my life that nothing happened and he swore on our relationship. . . and i believed him of course then yesterday his cousin told me the truth . . . and i asked him about and he addmitted it i was like OMG! then we broke up and he said whateverrr!! really mean and i hung up and he didnt even call me back and i didnt believe his cousin i was like no he loves me too much he wouldnt lie. . . but he did lie! and he cried a lot and begged for me back for like 24 hours or so and i reallyyyyy love him with all my heart but during the almost 9 months like in the beginging he was soo nice then he just started lien to me a lot. . . and i found out and asked him about everything and he told me he wasnt hiding anything else and i believed him and that was after we dated for 5 months or so and he was really good after that then he flirted with a girl right in front of me which that hurt so bad!! then he called me a bitch and hit me 4 times but i really love him and this time i took him back bc i love him soo much. . . did i make a bad mistake??

Yes you did. If he's learned his lesson, he wouldn't be cheating! Once a cheater, always a cheater! You need to find a guy who'll treat you like you mean something. It's not love if he hits you, that's relationship abuse! You need to get over this guy FAST! Good luck. Hope I helped!

Ok so I met a girl at a picnic. Shes very shy and so am I. Im 21 shes 19. I saw her again at another picnic the week after and I asked her for her number and got it and we hung out that whole night. I called her Tuesday and like she didn’t ask one question and I opened up somehow and asked a lot. Thing is shes very shy and actually never had a boyfriend before because she focused on family and school. So what do I do to open her up and find if she even likes me. Any advice is helpful.

P.S. What would a good first date be for some one who never had a bf?

Maybe the movies would be a good place to start and then work your way up. Maybe dinner, your house, ect. Get to know her and when the time is right, ask her to be your girlfriend. Good luck! Hope I helped!
