alot of ppl in the grade up from me hate me...because of stuff i did the year before n they all say they are gonna kick my ass no matter how sorry i say i am they dont care they think i should pay for my attitude...?? n i dont get it i said sorry n it was from like 2 years ago shouldnt they b over it by now what should i doo???? because school starts soon n they said they are gona kick my ass this yearr...?

Just ignore them. If its been about 2 years, do you think they are gonna kick your ass at this time? Try to make new friends and get some people that will back you up if they are gonna kick your ass. Hope I helped :)

i have a friend that is very special to me. i have known her foreva nd i dont want to loose her becuz of things pplz say or who i hang out wit. My other friends dont like her but i do nd i want to be all of there friends nd they dont want to be her friend nd i dont kno wat to do. Tell me if u have ne advice.

If you friends don't like her, it doesn't mean that you have to stop being her friend. Since you've known her forever and you don't wanna lose her, that means you are a very good friend towards her and she is a good friend towards you. Be there for her and eventually, your friends will start to understand that they made a mistake of not liking her. I hope I helped :)

i am looking for a curly wet look or something else that looks cool with out using any products and i have dirty blonde hair if that helps thankz

Just scrunch your hair. When you get out of the shower, put some moose in your hair and scrunch from the roots to the ends of you hair. Then just spray hair spray and it'll look great. Hope I helped :)

when i was really little, like 4 or so, my babysitters son sat me on his lap and showed me his thing. he told me to touch it and when white stuff started to come out he wanted me to clean it. then he told me to leave his room. well me being young i did what he told me. i didnt kno it was wrong. then i told my mom and she was like dont say anything to anyone. and she didnt do anything about it! i am now gonna turn 14 in october and it has been bugging me since then. it hurts that my mom let me stay there till i was 9! nuthing else ever happened but i mean still. wut could i do to take my mind off of it? i am really happy now and stuff but when i stop and think it just pops in my head and thats the only thing that really stands out in my memoery. i remember it like it was yesterday.

Why would your mom do that to you? She's supposed to be responsible and not let that happen to her child. Well anyways, you should go to a therapist or some kind of councelor. Hope I helped :)

does any one no how to get rid of acne and pimples FAST like about . in one day or two lol

Hey, you can't get rid of acne that fast. Go to a pharmacy and buy Nature's Cure for Women and it'll help clear away acne. It cost's around $10 I think. You could also buy and try Pro-active. It works really good but it costs around $40. Hope I helped :)

i get really bad acne between my breasts, how do i get rid of it?

Well, you can go to a pharmacy and get this acne thing called Nature's Cure. There's a spray that is for body acne and if you spray it where there is acne, it should go away. I think it costs around $5-$10 but I'm not sure because I can't remember lol. Also, go to the beach. Salt water dries out zits. Hope I helped :)

A little less then two months ago I found out my cousin was raped and i've been having some trouble dealing with it.I'm really close to this cousin , she's liek my best friend.when i first found out i just started crying , i couldnt even look at anyone for a copuple days.That i had to cry myself to sleep.i used to live in a house with her in when i was younger,i lived on the bottom and she lived on the top.Whenever i think about her and her baby i cant help but cry and its so hard for me to look at her without crying.I cant help but think maybe if i hadnt moved away i would have been with her and i could have stopped the jerk who did this to her.I seem to be the only person in my family who thinks she can finish high school and still take care of her baby.i mean its her family thier supose to be supportive of her.She was raped when she was 14 and had her baby when she was 15.She was born about 3weeks ago.I still cant help but worry about her and feel like i could have done something and i should tell my parents to be more supportive of her and stop thinking so negative.I couldnt even talk to my best friend about this w/o feeling stupid so if anyone has any advice for me, please send it.

Hey, don't worry, it's not your fault about what has happened. It's the a-hole who did this to her. I think you should definitely talk to your parents that it hurts you when they think negative thoughts. Tell them that they should be supportive towards her. It's good that you think she can finish school and can take care of her baby. Stay by her side through everything because if she needs someone to talk to, she knows that you are there for her. Good luck! I hope I helped and I hope everything works out :)

Hey..does anybody have some advice on how to lose the extra fat around my arms and not the muscle? Im not sure if lifting weights is a good idea because im a pitcher and I heard from somewhere that lifting tightens up your arms and isnt good for a pitcher. Is that true? -Thank You- :)

Yeah, it's probably true. You can't do anything with that extra skin/fat because it's baby fat and it helps keep you warm. Good luck! Hope I helped :)

-iCEd lAttE x0x

Your friends are right, you should definitely ask him to go to the movies or something with you. Hey, it won't hurt. If he rejects you, then he isn't worth your time but if he says yes, then he's interested in you. I hope I helped and I hope everything works out with you two :)

Well, if you don't really know this person that much and this party is a "birthday" party, maybe you can get her a gift card or just a plain old birthdya card. Hope I helped :)

ok thers this girl i like alot but i dont think she likes me and she makes me so horney and stuff but i dont know wut 2 do \.. i like need a hormone pill or something! plz help me! im scared. its fucked up. well if u need age were 12 in 7th grade

Ask her if she likes you. If you're too shy to ask her, then ask one of her closest friends. If you find out that she does like you, ask her out. Oh yeah, one more thing, it's alright to get horny. Your hormones are starting to react to more things, especially to small things. I hope I helped and I hope everything works out for the best :)

ok, this isn't really much of an advice thing, so it'll probably be deleted, but I hope to get sum answers in

We have to cover out books for a few classes, and like I don't want to do the whole newspaper, or brown back covers, because then you have to use tape, and I got a new book, like I'm the 1st to use it, so I don't want to have to pay
I'm in High School

I know that in middle school, they sold them to you, but I don't know where to get the Book Sox now (thats how you spell it, I'm POSITIVE)

if anybody knows, and if at wal-mart, would it be where all the regular school supplies are?

Yep, you can get them at Walmart. They're in the school supply section of the store. You can also get them in Staples. They also have a lot there. Hope I helped :)

Did you stretch before doing jumping jacks? Or maybe you didn't digest the food you had in your stomach? Hope I helped :)

My 15 year old friend engages often in un-protected sex. No matter how much I tell her to wear a condom, or my god, at least go on birth control, she continues to give herself to random guys, especially under the influence. Recently, she slept over my house and woke up with severe morning sickness. She also became constipated, and complains now constantly about her stomach hurting. She hasn't gotten her period yet either. I called planned parenthood for her and it did nothing. I can't think of anything else it could be but pregnancy, and they want to schedule an appointment, which would mean she would have to tell her mom, which, stubborn as she is, would be a struggle at best. She's my best friend, and I cannot see her do nothing about this situation...any advice?

Yea, it definitely sounds that she is pregnant. But first, let her take a few pregancy tests and if they read positive, then just tell her to tell her mom. I know this isn't that much, but I hope I helped :)

can you put a signature at the bottom of your answers? like set a certain setting so that the same thing goes on the bottom of all your answers like: *chRisTiNa*

like that?? cuz i wana put my name at the bottom of all my answers and things like that but its tiring to keep doing that. is there any way to set a setting that will do it on its own??

Nope, I don't think there is something like that. Maybe you could put this question that you are asking in the Suggestion section and maybe advicenators can add it to Advicenators? But for now, you just have to type it in all of your answers. Yeah, I know, it is tiring. Hope I helped :)

Ok, lets say one of your best friends just broke up with his gf, who you have kind of liked for awhile? Should you ask her out right away or give her some time? It wasn't a very serious relationship, but I don't know how she would feel going out with me, after being with my friend?

I think you should tell her how you feel about her but don't rush into anything yet. Give her some time to cope well not cope, but you know what I mean. It's different for every girl. I hope I helped and I hope everything works out :)
