Q: ok so im 15 & iv been with this girl for a little over a month & i still havent seen her. she pisses me off tho cuz lk iv gone to movies with ppl & iv invited her & shes always doing sumthin with someone else. everytime i call her "im on the otherline with Ray" or i IM her "nm on the phone with Ray" & its fucking annoying... please help.
Listen, your still very young. Why stress over someone that you never see? If this very very strained relationship is causing you grief, then the best thing to do would be to just tell her you want to remain friends and nothing more. To be completley honest, the whole lets just be friends thing rarley works out. Don't rush through your youth, you only have it once. Live live to the fullest, not the most stressfull.:)

Q: ok so there's this guy that i've been friends with since pretty much when he came to my school and most guys i dont feel comfortable with but with him i can be myself well i still feel a little uncomfortable like i cant be myself but for the most part i can be myself now i am kinda overweight and so i havent had much experience with guys but i kinda like this guy and i mean he has always been nice to me well that i know of and well i kinda want to stay friends but then i kinda want something more also he has gone out with alot of girls and flirts with a lot well he used now he doesnt as much so what should i do cause i wanna stay friends but then i want mroe help
One thing you have to ask yourself is, is you taking this thing to the next level worth your friendship? I really wouldn't rush things like serious relationships right now, because both of you are changing so much during this time in your life, and you'll change more as the years go by. It would be really awkward for both of you if you two went out for a while, but then decided to stay friends. It would never be the same. However, the fact that this gentleman has the softheartedness to look past your weight issue speaks volumes. He seems like a true friend. If you feel like you two should be more than friends, then take that chance, but I would wait a while. I hope this helped at least a little bit.:)

Q: I'm the only freshman, and one of 2 girls in my jazz band at school. A bunch of the guys, mostly seniors but a couple juniors, like to play around with me. I'm not really sure what it means. They come up behind me and scare me, hug me a LOT, make funny faces at me, and call me nicknames. I'm not sure if this would be flirting?? Cause I do it back just cause I don't want them to think that I think they're idiots. Which I don't- they're really cool people. They just like to be playful with me a lot. They don't do it to the other girl, but she's a junior, and she knows them better, i guess. I went with one of them to eat out today, and he was being really sweet to me, but he was being pretty mean to some of the other guys. I'm a little confused... I'm not very experienced with guys! lol
Well, take this advice(from a guy). Us guys are no always the best creatures when it comes to expressing our feelings. When we like a girl, we pick on her or tease her or were just plain mean. I must be an odd duck. If I like someone, I strike up a conversation, not pick on them or tease them. Also, in High School theres going to be alot of hugging, and nicknames, and people experementing with the fact of being close to someone (for real) for the first time. Thats probably why that guy was being really sweet to you, he likes you, at least it seems that way. Its always going to be a little awkward no matter what High School situation your in. Evreyone is changing in evrey way, and some people just cope with the change different than others. Just be true to yourself, and don't rush things, you have your whole life ahead of you, why rush it. Yah know?:)

I have many siblings so I understand what sibling rivalry is like. I am also an abuse victim, so I also know what that is like. On one of my traveling escapades I was stung by the second most venomous scorpion in the southern half of Africa, I almost died, but thank God I didn't!
