Okay people! (I've Only Had One Boyfriend In My Whole Life) I have been single for 9 months now, I like this guy and he likes meeh back, but there is restrictions causing us not to date, and I somtimes think he is pushing me away, and I still wanna be his friend. So what do I do to get other guys to like me? _LoNelY OnE_ (Thickbabyie4u)

you can't really make someone like you. it just happens.. i guess just be yourself. show that u have confidence. don't look down at your feet in the hallway, and talk to people. flirt. good luck!! send me something if you need more help.

Hi, im Theresa, yes i am also a columnist but i need help, see i need braces ( but not TERRIBLY) only a few of my teeth are a little off center but my mom thinks that i really want braces! We kinda have a shortage of money going on too. Braces are like $4,000 and we cant really afford it but my mom really wants to take the risk. What should i tell her to let her know that i really dont NEED braces yet?
*~T/H/E/R/E/S/A~*

some of my teeth were off, and i just got a retainer. i'd suggest just going to the orthodontist and getting checked out. it's them that really know if you need braces.
anyway, tell your mom that u don't desperately need them right now. maybe she'll see your point of view. best wishes!! send me something if you need more help.

okay. . . ive been really upset and depressed lately and i told my best friend that she neva talks to me and neva calls me or makes plans anymore (shes moving in 4 days) so she said that ive changed and that she never wants to talk to me and that im giving her an attitude and that im a bitch. and in my info it says that i dont have anymore best friends and she goes "and u wonder why you dont have any best friends" what should i do??

and oh yea, shes having a going away party soon and im supposed to go. Should I go, or not?

maybe it's just her weird way of making the move easier on her. but you guys should be enjoying your time together before she moves, not being mad at each other. try talking to her and asking why she's mad at you. tell her you treasure her friendship and you want it to last.

i'd go, you don't want to give her the satisfaction. best wishes!!! send me something if you need more help, i'm here for you.

Does anyone have any good ideas on what I should put on my babysitting flyers?? I want a lot of babysitting jobs for the rest of the summer and during the school year because I'm saving up for a labtop. Anyone have any good ideas of what I should write on the flyer?? help asap!!

probably your phone number, age , and say your are a responsible person. it's helps if you take a red cross course, because that will really show you are responsible and know how to handle a situation. good luck!

hm.. you are working pretty hard and you're going to lose weight because of that. just eat healthy foods, 3 meals a day, and get your proper servings of fruit and so on. good luck!! send me something if you need more help.

i have always had really short hair. it's been a dream of mine to grow it out, but right when it's a little past my shoulders, i always chicken out and cut it again! i think it's because there is no good styles for shoulderlength hair, but i still really want to grow it out. is there a product/way to grow it out more quickly so it can be long?

just think about the nice hair you are going to have, and don't get it cut. you should always get it trimmed though. it keeps your hair nicer.
you can pull it back, scrunch it, ponytail, braid it, ... there's tons u can do.

kool aid as hair dye.. anyone ever try it? should i try doing it? i only want something temporary b/c schools all strict and stuff about hair color. i just wanna find out if its worth doing and what color would you think best on blonde hair?

i've done it. it makes your hair hard and sticky and nasty. it stains everything and it might not come out of blonde hair very well. basically, it sucks.

OMG! the creepiest thing happened to me today. i was on aim when someone i.m.s me saying that they are my g/f. from the start i knew it wasnt them. (my girlfreind lives on long island and i live in niagara falls). so i was confused. then all of a sudden this person started naming parts of my life from like 3 years ago. IT WASNT ANYONE FROM MY FAMILY (I JUST KNOW). SO...now im freaking out. i dont know who it could be and how they know all of this info! i never told anyone half the things this person said! what do i do to calm myself down and relax..and can someone explain this?!?! I RATE!!

it's probably someone you know trying to to creep you out. just block them and don't think about it. someone's being an asshole
is there ANYONE you to this stuff to? did u write anything down where someone could've found it??? think reallly hard
good luck!! send me something if you need more help

I just started chours this year in school. My friends have told me that my music teacher will make you sing in front of the WHOLE class to see if you can be a soloist. I like to sing but I don't know if I have a good voice! I don't want to be humiliated in front of everyone! What should I do?

pretend that they aren't there.
we used to have to sing kind of in front of everyone. no one paid any attention to what was going on.
even if you don't make soloist, you are doing something you like to do, so just have fun with it. good luck!! send me a message if you need something else!

Okay well I really need some help. I have been cutting for about a year and the cuts are getting really deep. They have riped my vein and I'm afraid i mite go to far next time. I've been tryihng so hard not to cut but i get these really baddddd urges to do it..is there any help for me out there?

keep a rubber band around your wrist.everytime you feel that you are going to, snap it. get involved in some sort of an activity. go to a counselor. the visits will be kept confidential unless you threaten to do something. maybe you can go to a support group. you have already realized you have this problem and you definitely have help. good luck!!! please send me a message if you need more help.

hey my name is kate and i have a problem ...okay well i ride horses and this gives me alot of muscle in my legs and my stomach and arms and muscle is heavier then fat ..so ne ways i was at my friends house well call her "Jenna" and she saw the scale and it was kinda high for our age so she started calling me fat and stuff and i told her "jenna" look its all muscle frum riding my horse ! but she wont listen ! wut shud i do ?please help

try telling her again that it's muscle, and if she doesn't listen, don't listen to her. you know you aren't fat and that it's muscle. you don't need her approval. you might want to find a new friend. no friend should be doing that to you. good luck!!! send me a message if you need more help.
