ok... when ever i go on vacations i meet/see really cute guys but im really shy so we barely talk. Then the day to leave comes and i get all emotional about it and i barely even know them. But im really hard on myself over it and i get mad that i didnt get any contact information and stuff. So how do i over come the shyness and get the courage to go talk to them more???

Just go introduce yourself and get over your shyness. Chat about where he's from, what he's doing there, how he is, and stuff that intrests you. He may like the same stuff. And, before you leave, ask for his e-mail adress or his number. Hope I helped!

hey, I really wanna kiss this boy but I dont know what would be a good time to do it.. We're usually not alone alot but sometimes we are, and he likes me. When would be the right time to do it?

Well if you're alone, plant a kiss on his cheek. Guys love to be surprised with kisses.

I'm going into high school this year as a freshman, and I'm SO nervous. I'm scared that I won't have anyone to talk to and I won't do well in my classes (I got all honors), so can anyone please tell me what high school is like ? Like, the classes, teachers, classmates, etc.. And any tips to make friends and do well in the classes ? kthnx.

Well no doubt your classes are going to be hard since your taking honors. As for friends, introduce yourself to a couple new kids and you may wind up being friends with them. And, I agree, teachers can be rough. A way to get on their good side is ask them constantly about what you can do to better yourself in that class. Teachers love when a student expresses an interest in the particular subject. Freshman "jitters" are normal. I'm going to be a sophmore and I had MAJOR freshman jitters. You'll get over them within a few weeks. Just be yourself and you'll succeed. Good luck! Hope I helped!

I'm 13 years old. I recently became pen pals with a guy my age who lives in England, I live in the US. I really like him, but I don't know how to tell him, or if I even should. If he doesn't feel the same way, I don't want to chance our friendship. What do I do?

Just tell him how you feel in your next letter and ask if he feels the same way. If not, just stay friends with him and see what will happen.

OKay! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE MY BOYFRIEND, but sometimes it feels like we aren't as good as we used to be. I dont' know, I mean I dont' want anything to happen to us. It's just, he's been away a lot and stuff and I mean, it feels weird, because it's not like I miss him even that much anymore. I dont' know! It is just different and I really don't like it. Please help me out. How do I relit our flame? And is this normal? I'll rate HIGH and leave FEEDBACK

Mzybe the old flame you had for each other died out. Talk to him and see what will make the relationship more exciting. It's perfectly normal, he might of lost interest in you. It happens!

What do i do when my mom just cares about her boyfriend and she never wants me and my sister around, and all she says to me and my sister is that were imbarssments, and i hear her having sex all the time with her boyfriend, and i found a vibrater in her room! what do i do i feels like i dont even have a mother!! when i was sick with the flu she didt come home til 6 o'clock in the morning I was rushed in emergancy room, thanks to my sister calling the ambulance! what do i do I NEED HELP!

Ps-she doesnt even make us dinner or anything

Parents who love you shouldn't treat you like that. Sit her down with your sister there and explain how it makes you feel being ignored.

can somebody please help me with ideas how to ask a girl out.

Find out what she likes and try and get to know her. You ask when the timing is right.

My friends Dad died last year and today its fathers day and she called me crying and stuff..what do i do? its her first fathers day without her dad! I feel SOO bad. Shes not my best friend, but still a girl i know very well. Please help. ='(

What the hell is a break...I am a 16 year old female and my boyfriend(or w/e hes called at the moment is 18) and he said that i hurt him (inside on this is that...we were talking and he said i dont trust him but i really do trust him i just made a joke after he said it saying i didnt), and that he really wants things to work, but we are going to go on a break for this week and then talk and see where we stand as a couple and what we want to do about the realtionship. Im really hurting, i cry all the time, and i want to stop...what should i do to stop the pain? What is a break? and how can i save the realtionship?? GUYS HELP PLEASE

Usually it means he's dumping you for good. Move on. Your true love won't make you hurt that bad. Take up a new hobby. That'll get your mind off of him.

ok see im 16/f and my mom hates my boyfriend. like when we first started talkin she was ok then out of no where she hated him. then she changed her mind and let me go to his moms wedding reception. so we were ok. then he called me a fag on the answering machine(just playing around)she got upset he apologized and we were ok now she hates him and wont let him call my house, so he calls my cell. i love this kid and he loves me but shes messing things up. what should i do?

Talk to her and see what the problem with him is. If she refuses to answer, keep asking her and you'll get an answer eventually. Hope I helped.

OK, this may seem weird, but it's something that really scares me. Im really scared of being kidnapped. Now that it is summer, i really need to keep my window open, but what if someone cut the screen? If my parents are already in bed, I go around the house, checking to make sure every door is locked. I wanna stop being afraid. Am i being way too paranoid? HELP ME !!! I RATE HIGH

I sometimes do this. Its kinda normal. If you're really scared, call the cops or get someone to sleep near you to reassure you that everything's going to be ok.

I'm going to the beach for the first time in years. What things should I make sure to bring? (like make-up, how many bathing suits, what bathing suits, and other stuff..)

Bring a bathing suit, a towel, a couple chairs and LOTS of sunscreen. You'll be sorry if you come home looking like a beet.

I say forget her. If she flirts with you its not necessarily as a bf/gf relationship. Confront her on why she stands you up. Then stay friends with her. Who knows what will happen.

my girlfriend latly has been ignoring me, and she has a real short fuse with me. Whenever i try to do somthing that shows i love her, she takes everything the wrong way and is like "why are you doing that" or somthing. we thought it was PMS a while back but she's been like this a while now. then i cant ever really show any affection for her, because (well i think anyway) that she feels crowded with this girl, who might i add is completly obsessed with her...the girls name is Ally, and all is CONSTANTLY hugging on, or holding onto my girlfriend and i think thats part of the reason she is acting the way she is. i cant pull her away for a long enough time to give her our first kiss and we've been together for 4 months. she doesnt ever really want to cuddle durring any movies at my house, because if ally happens to be there then ally is on her, and she doesnt want to leave/be rude to ally...sometimes she will blow me off for no apperent reason at all or with some excuse. is there anything i can do to make my girlfriend pay a LIL more attention to me, or is it pretty much hopeless?

If she doesn't wanna do anything, find another girl.

So I am at school right now and I just found out people have been talking about me and my friend going out, but she is a girl. I am not bisexual nor am I a lesbian. People are starting rumors and they dont even know me. I am new at this school and I dont know how to cope with it. Lately everyone has been acting like they dont want me here. I've just came for advice on what I should do because right now no one will listen to me. I've tried about everything to just get friend, but I will never change who I am. I know my sexuality and I know I am straight. I wouldn't say I'm not something if I really was. I mean ever since someone started that rumor people will come up to me and ask me if I am a lesbian! It is irritating. Holyoke has been the worst ever since i moved here.Everyone who knows me is back in chicopee, and I just miss everything and the way things used to be.

Ignore the rumors. Find something you enjoy doing. People who spread rumors do it to make them look cool. If you know the rumors aren't true, don't pay attention to them and they should stop within a couple months. Hope I helped!

Being nervous is normal. Its not necessarily a sign that you're a lesbian it probably just means you're not ready. Its normal to not be ready also.

okay well my boyfriend loves me and im not sure if i lvooe him like sometimes i reallly do and sometimes its iffy! we barely ever see eachother because we both play for select teams! or im with my family in branson or illinois! well tell me what to do pleeeaaassee!!!

Long distance relationships are tough. Next time you see him, explain to him you don't feel the same way about him.

well it all started in 2nd grade when my friend and i thought it would be fun to try and have sex so now im not really sure if i am a lex, bi, or striaight. i always thought it would be more comfortable having sex with girls and if i ever needed to practice making out a girl would be better i really have no idea and im scared...if i am a lez or bi i dont want to tell my friends cuz they might feel uncomfortable...and i kinda wanna wait till im older to see if it all changes and if i doesnt im gonna tell my parents..i just need to some help! please! thanx!

Well if you had sex and made out with a girl then your lez. But if you have a strong attraction to guys, you're bi. And there's nothing wrong with that. Your friends should treat you with respect and not care whether you're bi, lez, or straight. If they don't, thy're really not your friends. Hope I helped!
