I can't gurantee that my advice will always be right. And some things I might not even know. But I will do my best to answer any questions :] I'll tell you exactly what i think, so if you don't like it, dont read it!And lately, i've discovered that one of the best answers for relationship problems is communication. talk. explain. share. it does wonders.
advice
3 questions--
1. do you guys think that the new TV show on disney channel called Cory and the House is gonna be as popular as Hannah Montana or The Suite Life of Zack and Cody?
2. does anyone think that the movie Jump In on disney is gonna be as popular as High School Musical ?
3. does anyone know when High School Musical 2 is coming out?
as you can see i love disney channel. lol thanks though!
1. from the looks of it, i dont think cory and the house will be as popular as hannah montana or the suite life of zack and cody.. but who knows. give it time and it might be.
2. High school musical was really popular. I have the feeling (from seeing previews and such) that Jump In wont be as popular, but maybe thats just me.
3. High school Musical 2 is set to be released in the summer of next year. the exact month isnt known yet but filming will start in march 2007.
okay this is kind of complicated but here it goes, i was talking to this guy online for awhile. me being 17, and him telling me he was 18. my feelings for him were becoming strong, and we decided to meet up. when we did, he wasn't the person he told me he was. he was actually 36 years old!! and told me that he also had 2 kids!! but that their mother was out of the picture. putting the age difference aside... even though he had lied to me about a lot of things, i had already fallen for him, and forgave him. we haven't been seeing each other anymore, but still talk, and had planned on getting together when i turned 18. PLEASE DON'T JUDGE THIS DECISION. that's not what i'm here for. when i found out he had a 14 year old daughter, i searched for her on myspace and found her. i requested her as a friend, and after looking at her page a few times found out that she has a STEP MOM and a STEP BROTHER that also live with them! i was so heartbroken. i still haven't told him that i found out because i don't want him to know i was "snooping", even though i think that is something i deserve to know. so now, a normal person would probably be thinking "how can i get rid of this freak?!" but i am so in love with him that all i'm thinking is "i hope he chooses me and gets rid of his wife in may!!" i know i should stop talking to him, but its soo hard. i fell in love with him before i knew about all the lies and now it's just too hard to walk away. what should i do???
The answer is simple. Forget about him. For one thing he's still married and i dont think you'd want to be his mistress. That can result in a lot of lawsuits and trouble. And his daughters almost the same AGE as you. Do you think he wont treat you like he would treat his daughter? ANd if you do get together with him, do you think his daughter would treat you like a mom? especially when you're only 3 years older? Chances are she'll resent you for barging in on their family and becoming her dad's lover. And i really doubt he'd abandon his kids for you. Get over him, get rid of him, he is so not worth your time. if he can lie to your once or more about really important matters, he can lie to you again and again about little things. If i were you,i'd find someone closer to your own age who will love you and wont lie to you.
my computer is not able to show me things written in korean or chinese or japanese etc. what can i do to be able to see text in these languages, or at least korean?
you need to download software that allows you to read foreign languages on your computer. An example would be: http://www.njstar.com/
For certain words int he chinese language, are there more than one symbol for one word, or are some words have two symbols?
Like, how we have "there their and they're", are there more than one symbol for one word? And are there more than one symbol to make up the word?
There are various ways to write same words such as life which could be sheng ming or sheng huo depending on how you're using; beautiful can be piao liang or mei li and etc. There is 'na li', their is 'ta men de' and 'they're' is "ta men..."
So yeah certain words in the chinese language (im assuming mandarin but im sure its the same with cantonese and tawainese) have more than one symbol. Example would be name which is ming zi (zhi). One symbol words could be like "I" (wo) or "you" (ni). Because is "ying wei". etc. I hope that helped and wasn't confusing?
I like this kid paul and he likes me back, but we aren't going out. what are things i can do to get him to like me more and ask me out?
well if you know that he likes you, you can always take the initative and ask him out! Theres nothing wrong with girls asking guys out nowadays. Or if you're too shy to do that sort of thing, have your friends 'mention' to him that you're interested in going out with him. Or you can just leave hints and stuff =)
AH! People on this site who ask for help frustrate me. Not all people do this but several do. Advice is where people from all different points of view give the honest answer they think even if it's brutal. Yet when some people do give honest answers, the questioner, who doesn't like the answer, decides to give a 1 for not getting a sugar coated answer. If we all said "Yeah, you're right, this and that" blah blah than those arn't advice...so I guess I'm asking why do people do that and is there any way to clarify to people that advice is not always sugar coated and that giving a 1 because they don't like the answer is just a;skljga;lkjg?
some people just cant handle the truth even if its sitting right in front of them with a neon yellow baseball cap (my friend has one of those.. very scary). Sometimes they ask questions to make themselves feel better, but when they get an answer totally disagreeing with what they were planning on doing or did, then they get pissed off and give you a 1 or if they dont like your answer at all (especially if they're sarcastic). But then again, there are times when the advice giver actually deserves a 1 for advice that's totally pointless and not helpful at all. There isn't exactly a way to make people realize that advice can be hurtful and not sugar coated because people in general like to hear nice things rather than things that totally contradict what they actually want to hear.
On myspace you know the extended network bar at the top when you veiw your page. Well how do you change that? I have seen then have picture in sted of saying "_____ is in your extended network"
thankss

^ just input the picture with the words "__ is in your extended network" on it into that box and the website will generate the code for you =) i just used it two days ago and it worked great!
Ok i like this guy that has a girlfriend, they say they dont know if they are goin out or not because they never talk but still they dont break up. the guy i like has no clue that i like him and i am friends with his girlfriend. i dont want to hurt his girlfriend but they dont even like one another and i LIKE him. should i tell him or what?
You could talk to your friend first before telling him. If they technically aren't going out and she IS your friend, she might step aside so that at least you can get the guy you want (who she apparently doesnt really want).
If I were you though, I'd talk to the guy first and admit your feelings. if he returns them, then you two can figure out how to tell your friend. Because if you tell your friend first, she might agree to break up with him so you can go out with him and then you figure out how to tell the guy, which would be more awkward. So all in all, i say go for it. If their relationship isn't getting anywhere why keep it going?
STORY: The two players are Elaine and her mother. Elaine was always skinny. Elaine's mother told Elaine; I am really worried when we go to the birthday party that if someone told you that you got so thin, that you read into it and think that they never thought you were thin; Elaine says; Well doesn't it mean that? And her mother said; No, you would just hear it that way.You were always thin. Elaine told her friends the story and they said; what your mom is saying is that you were always thin, and everyone who knows you from past and present knows you are thin, but it just means they noticed you got thinner; MY QUESTION: DO YOU AGREE WITH ELAINEs FRIENDS?
i think elaine's mom is saying that when you go to the party, people will tell you you're thin and that you'll think that they never noticed you were thin before. So technically, elaine's friends are partially right in that 'you were always thin' but if people just told elaine NOW that she's thin, she'd assume she was't thin before... something like that.. did that make sense? the story itself was somewhat confusing.
I'm a teenage girl who is going to commit suicide today. No questions asked. I could never cut myself or jump off of a building- but I might be able to suffocate myself. But the problem with that would be that I don't know if I'd come back to consciousness with brain damage or not. Does suffocation cause brain damage? Or does it just kill you? Any quick and painless methods would be greatly appreciated.
Like the person who posted below the person below me.. do you seriously think we'll give you advice on how to kill yourself? are you out of your mind (technically you are just by asking the question)? Whydont' you instead go find your friends or family and have some fun. hang out, go see a movie, play games.
I stumbled across this site by accident. I seriously doubt many of you have the qualifications to give real people proper advice. After reading some of your responses to people's inquiries i was quite astonished as to how teenagers find they are able to give quality advice and information to real people in need with such little life experience. If you ask me you are not in a place to give your "personal opinion" when people truly believe you are giving them the right answer simply because you claim "people think i give really good advice". (eg. i am still at a loss as to how a 17 year old girl thinks she can give advice to someone regarding conceiving a child) I know you try to come across as a "godsend" to poeple who are in some sort of personal crisis and need a fast easy answer but the truth is, in the cases where it really counts, there rarely is one; at least not from you.
Like the other people before me, I dont see how age really has to do with giving 'good advice'. The fact that you were 'quite astonished as to how teenagers find they are able to give quality advice and information to real people in need with such little life experience.' just shows that you seem to have the stereotype of teenagers being irresponsible and immature in your mind.
You can't really judge how well a person can give advice based on their age. Everyone's lives, frankly, are quite different and some people have more experiences than others in a shorter amount of time. A lot of people on this website are actually trying to help and maybe make the world a 'better place' by giving advice to a person in need. Advice isn't absolute; it's based on observation, experience, and opinion. You dont need a masters degree or some diploma to prove that you can give the right advice. Sometimes it just takes experience and observation. Advice given from all sorts of people can give new perspective on the situation that you might not have considered before.
To end your confusion about how a 17 year old girl can give advice to someone regarding conceiving a child, for all you, as someone pointed out before me, might have experience in the medical field, her parents could be doctors, she might have taken medical training classes at some point, or she might had gone through such an experience. You can't just assume that people give whatever advice comes into their head; some people might actually have experience regarding certain situations.
When people ask for advice, they ask for advice. period. They usually dont narrow it down to only having specific people answer; everyones advice is counted and the less helpful ones are ignored. Besides, most of the questions on this site are usually directed to teenagers and up. Not often do we have questions that are solely directed at the older 'more experienced' adults. But yeah, that's my input on your statement/question thing. Hopefully i didnt offend you and i wasnt trying to come off as totally knowledgeable either.
Okay, I'm gonna say sorry for some of the words I'll be using but anywhos.
You know when you say like negro [sp] or nigger to an african american or call everyone from south american mexicans (which means you're ignoring their individuality) it's considered racism and rude and hateful remarks using vitriolic words? Well, when people call someone form south korea a chinese or japanese, that's considered racism too. It's saying that all the individual countries are not important enough for them to acknowledge them as seperate places.
It's really hurtful to the person recieving these racist remarks like me. I'm from south korea and there's this girl that keeps on calling me chinese or japanese and makes fun of me by saying japanese or chinese--or at least attmepting to say them--and pretend like i'm from that country and sometimes she carries it on by saying "DO YOU UN-DER-STAND?" in slow mo as if I wouldn't understnad it if she talked like a normal person. She keeps on calling me "chinese girl" and today she even said to her friends--who I do not know-- "Oh this is that little chinese girl that I was talking about" in a really rude tone.
I've experienced racism since I got to US which is in 4th grade and I'm still experiencing it everywhere I go and I'm in 9th grade right now. No one understands that being racist against a person is really hurtful and they won't know because they haven't experienced it. I've told her that she may think it's funny but it really isn't and i've said some things that I shouldn't have. But I really can't take this anymore because she's geting her friends to join in against this ridiculous thing against me and I'm really just about to cry and I don't know what to do.
I can't ignore her because then she goes onto say "Oh, that chinese girl is deaf" or something like that and it's just hard not to get upset over it. My friend knows this and she saw me almost cry several times within the last week. What do I do about this situation? I don't wanna do what she's doing to me and I don't want to sink down to her level. Suggestions?
wow that's just really rude. You definitely need to tell the school administation. That's just verbal harrassment and she can get into a lot of trouble for that.
If she keeps saying stupid stuff like that, just ignore her. She obviously has nothing better to do than try to raise her own self-esteem by trying to make fun of other people.
If you want to really get her about it though, next time she does that, start speaking korean to her. Then say "Do you understand?" She wouldnt be able to understand and just look stupid. Then you can point out "btw that was korean." Or if she says something like "DO YOU UNDERSTAND" you can just say "yeah, i understand... i understand that you're retarded, what have you been learning in school? How to be racist?" But honestly, i would do that but you wouldnt want to do that... but seriously, people like that are just jerks and stupid. Dont take that kind of talk from her.
I hope i've helped but you can always message me for more help if you need it :)
okay so im 16/f and im a junior.
and i like this kid whos a freshman i know how awful is that? but i mean hes supposed to be a sophmore. so its not that bad. but yeah. and my friend said i should invite him to junior prom. and i know thats a long way away. but would it be kinda dorkish to bring a freshman to junior prom??
thanks in advance.
=)
i concur with the first person. Who says girls have to go with guys who are older? It doesnt matter that much. If you want to go with a younger guy, you should. There's nothing wrong with it at all!
Me= 17/f Him= 15 almost 16/m
We're dating.
He's indecisive(sp?)
Making stupid choices..
He's breaking my heart..
It hurts so bad...
I can't let go..
How do I?
Help? =[
I have the same issue though it's a bit more complicated. I'll be 17 in december and he's still 15. His unwillingness to make certain decisions has been just giving me headaches. You really need to talk to your boyfriend. I've ended up having to talk to my guy several times and it turns out that he has the same insecurities as me (i.e dating an older girl/what his friends would think). It makes things easier when you guys understand each others feelings and fears in the relationship. He might think that he's the only one worried about your relationship and not realize that he's breaking your heart by not being able to make decisions. Chances are that he's insecure about your relationship which means you should definitely talk to him about it. It might also depend on.. are you senior or junior? Because it might be that he's worried about you graduating before him and how the relationship will last then and such. but yeah, the best advice i can offer is communication.
If you want to talk more about it, since i kind of know how you feel, then feel free to IM me (:
what do you wear to the homecoming? cause isnt there a football game frist and then the dace so what do you wear something formal or just like what?
normally, as far as i can tell, the football game is usually the day BEFORE the dance (which is usually a saturday). So for the football game wear something casual with a jacket or sweater in case it gets cold and then for the homecoming dance, wear formal clothes.
Hey I was just wondering, is tennis considered a team sport? I need to do a project on a team sport, and I cant think of anything else, We arent aloud to do sports that weve done projects on in the past such as hocky, soccer, lacrosse, basketball, volleyball or any of the other easy team sports, and we have to find a team sport, not an indiviual one, thats why I was wondering if tennis is considered a team sport! thanks soooo much for any help you can give!
yeah tennis is considered a team sport because every individual's game is added up to a team total. and if you need another sport, badminton is also a team sport i believe.
i used to think harry potter movies were for nerds and stuff but now i actully love the movies lol im kinda obsessed...... ok well i just bought the harry potter and the goblet of fire DVD and i was wondering if there is gonna be another movie coming out after that one?? thanks so much!
To put it simply, there are seven books which will most likely result in seven movies. Soo if Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire is the fourth book that means it's the fourth movie which would mean there are still going to be three more movies. right?

i think you can draw/edit those pictures using photoshop or something similar.. it's not really omething you can learn right away [at least the drawing part], but you can probably find tutorials that teach you how to make/draw like that.

have fun looking at colleges :)
Every single day I feel like I'm fighting with my mom. And it's starting to get really annoying and old. And usually I'm not the one that starts it... she is. For example, I try my hardest to get a good grade. I get an 80. Then I get yelled at for not trying my hardest even though it's my toughest class. She tells me I'm a failure and that I'm in trouble when I go to college. We fight about things like doing well in a sport. She tells me that i should have passed the ball when i shot it and stuff like that. She tells me clothes to wear and how to do my hair. I know being 14 fighting with parent is normal... but is there such thing as over fighting? I don't know what to do anymore and it's really bothering me and kinda depressing now...
Thats how my mom and i are and im 16 now. Things go from fine to worse and now even more worse since i have to start college apps soon. Your mom doesnt understand that being a student nowaday is a lot more stressful than back then where you didnt have all those SAT and SAT II requirements and schools were less rigid about who to accept and whatnot. You are not a failure and you wont be 'in trouble' when you get to college. A lot of people have issues in the beginning of college since they're still going from high school to college. Your mom needs to realize that she's demanding too much of you and that she should stop pressuring you so much. It's your choices and your decisions and she shouldnt believe that she has a say in EVERYTHING. other than the fact that shes your mom, there IS a boundary line between what she wants from you and what you can actually achieve. Talking to her might not help, but when she starts going on about what you should do and etc, try ignoring her or responding in short apathetic phrases that she cant argue against [like 'ok' 'fine']? Sometimes it'll just make her even more angry, but if you dont fight back she can't really go on. Theres the chinese proverb that two hands can make a clapping noise but one hand is silent (bad translation) but yeah. Just dont start screaming 'just shut up' like i do. It doesnt have a good effect; it might make her go quiet in shock, but what comes next is worse. dont be depressed because your mom is piling her expectations on you. It's your life and your decisions; dont let her try to make it her life too.
