I need a dress for my 8th grade graduation, but I have NO idea where to look. Its supposed to look nice, but not too dressy. I'm really really picky though. Any ideas where I can get a pretty cheap dress for it? Thanks!

I'm 14 and I've never had a boyfriend. Usually it doesn't really bother me but I've seen so many couples who are younger than me and it makes me feel so sad and worthless. I'm ugly and shy and boring so I suppose no boy will ever want to go out with me, and even if a miracle happened and I did get one, I wouldn't really know what to do or what to say =\ People think I'm weird because I've never kissed a boy or even been out with one, I feel so different and frigid =[ I guess I was made to be single but I just want to know what it feels like to be loved.. How am I ever gonna get a boyfriend when I look like I do and I'm as shy as I am? I like this boy at school but he doesn't really like my friends because they're so immature, so he most likely thinks I'm like them and hates me too - I'm not as immature as them though.. Please help? Thanks xx

for starters change your attitude. you are not ugly or shy or boring. and you are right, no guy would want a girl like that. so believe in your self, you are beautiful, not ugly. you are confident, not shy, and you are and you are not boring, you are interesting.

if you dont like your friends, get some new ones! and you are lucky, because if you arnt in-love you arnt going to get your heart broken!

To tell the honest truth, I dont have a lot of friends & most of them when i call them (like tonight) make up an excuse not to go out with me. *yeah, i know, mean but please dont pity me* So, anyways i have nothing to do! Im not going to just sit around - but im not going out alone! wtf can/should i do? =/ Signed, Oh so lonely

play the sims, or another computer game. make something, like food, or cookies or a cake, or a braclet, also do your nails/toes, clean your room or play a game!!!!!

or play an online game.

Picture this:
There's a 7th grade girl and her 8th grader boyfriend alone in the hall at the end of the school day. His mom gives her a ride home so they're waiting on her to arrive. They start teasing each other and wrestling around and find themselves in the perfect position to kiss. They stare into each others' eyes for a momment, neither having kissed anyone before. The girl turns away with sudden fear.
What do you think the girl (me) was scared of? I wanted to... I just was nervous for some reason. Also, what do you think my boyfriend thought? We've been going out 5 months and never kissed. I need advice on how to overcome my fear of my first kiss or whatever I'm so scared of.I also would like to know what you think my boyfriend might have been feeling. I don't understand boys... lol. Thanks!

getting her heart broken.

dont worry about the time, i was with my boyfriend that long before we kissed too, and it was really REALLY special that way!

talk to him about it!!!

he should help you!

maybe the mood wasnt right!

it is school!

well, God has something in plan for you with everything, so maybe it wasnt right. and this is Gods way of helping you wait until the time IS right, by mkaing you nervous or scared,

theres this guy who i used to like. and yesterday he asked if i liked him. i said no and then he ssaid he needs a hug and he picked me up. does he like me?

its really hard to tell!!! he could, or he could just want you to be his"sister" if you know what i mean, like be like bro and sis!! it can sometimes be better, because then he will always be there for you through everything!! :) i used to have someone like that! but we just sorta stopped talking because we go to different schools and our tastes changed. well, tell him, "about what you said yesterday, i do like you. do you like me?" or something like that!!

well, i sure hope that I helped-

How do you know if you've found "the one"? What makes them special and different from all the others? If it's a matter of being about to "tackle life together" then why don't young relationships last? I'm 14 and a female. Me and my boyfriend have been going out for only almost 6 months. But we've been through a lot together already. He helped me though the death of my sister, I helped him raise his grades, he helped me stop cutting, I helped him avoid getting kicked out of school... What more can life throw at us? Despite our age, I think we have more of a "love" than some of the people who get married. I'm not saying I'm thinking of marrying the guy, but I'm wondering what it takes to have "true love". What more is there to it? And if you do reach it, how will you know? Sometimes I think the word love is used to freely. (From "I love potato chips!" to "I love my mom.") So what is love and how do you know? Please reply! And no immature, stupid comments, either! I want real opinions and ideas.

you could! Im 15 and my boyfriend is 17, and we have been together 14 1/2 months! and we think we are inlove too!!!

and i am so sure that i have found "the one" my boyfriend is like my best friend too! and fruond the sounds of it sounds like there is a huge friendship between you two too.

witht the love of potato chips thing, i know what your saying. i have talked to my boyfriend about that a lot. and i tell him that i dont love, for example, patato chips the same way i love you. and he knows that.

but i think its a girl thing, we always say we love evreything!!!

Yesterday I answered a question and I got I really mean and bad feedback for it when I was really trying to help and be nice and explain everything. So I was wondering what I did wrong because it really hurts me and I do care. And also is there a way to change my feedback because it really messes up my rating (I usually get 5s and now I got a 2)?
Here’s the question:
i go to this really preppy biotchy school in dc (all girls, private, kiss kiss) but anyway, i used ta be a really sweet person and like really focused and dedicated in life, but my school has really changed me...i find that i am really judgemental of people in a bad way...and i spend way too much time deciding what to wear and i do alot of trashy stuff with guys...what should i do?
Here’s the answer:
Dear,
It’s nice that you realize you have changed. Now one of the reasons why you changed might be that you seek the approval of the people around you and you feel the need to fit in. Or it might be that your friends influence you and as Oscar Wild said “There’s no such thing as good influence”. We are usually influenced by significant others which means that we are influenced by people like our parents, friends, movie stars and so on, people we respect (it’s a sociological fact, I am not just making it up).
So now if you want to be more like your old self, you should start being yourself and believe me I know how hard it can be sometimes. Do not be afraid to stand up for what you believe in and speak your mind. If your friends are doing something you think is wrong then tell them and most of all do not do it just because they are doing it. Be who you want to be not who your classmates think you should be. It’s nice that you want to be a better person now you just have to get the courage to change.
Also about the judgmental part, try putting yourself in other people’s place before you judge them and try to find out the reasons behind their actions.
Changing takes time but that’s until it becomes a habit. So one day just say to yourself that you are going to be nice to people from that point on, so next time you want to make a remark that would hurt someone think how you would feel if you were in their shoes. Start being sympathetic, start making compliments and be encouraging even if you don’t feel like it and at first it will feel unnatural but after time it will become a part of you. There’s not a secret to changing, you’ve got to make an effort at first.
Good Luck!
This is the feedback (I got 2 for it):
Thank you for that condescending lecture. And thank you for reitterating my point: I do want to go back to being myself. Unfortunately, you have not supplied the requested HOW of the matter. Better luck next time, deeeaarrrr.

Please help! I rate high!

ok, well i'm an 8th grade girl and i really like this 7th grade guy, and he asked me out and i said yes, but i'm wondering if that's weird or not.. idk, i'm just confused, please help me!
~mandy

because he is younger? well i went out with 3 or 4 7th grade guys when i was in 8th grade. sometimse the guys in your own grade just dont work. to tell you the truth, i've only dated about 10 or11 guys, something like that, and i am 15. and only one has been in my own grade, but he didnt go to my school.

the one i am with now is a junior, and i am a freshman. *(if you dont know thats 11th grade for him and 9th grade for me)* and everything is fine we have been together for 14 1/2 months!! :)

if you like him, it doesnt matter. and if people make fun of you, thats their problem. some people made fun of me for going out with 7th grade guys when i was in 8th grade. and at least 5 people that i know of went out with one of the, and the same with the other! and then they all started dating 7th grade guys!!!

so, hey, people are just wierd sometimes, dont listen to what they say.

my bofyriend now is African American, and I am White, so we get made fun of, but thats their own problem!!

good luck!!!

i want to have a party but my parents think that all my friends are bad and they will brake stuff even though there like isnt anything to brake in my basement can someone tell me how i could talk to my parents aobut it or something because my friends think im like a bitch for not inviting them over

and could you give some ideas of what to do because the only stuff thats down there is a tv pool table ping pong table and like a couple chairs

thanks

ask them what we an and cannot do, and agree with them.

compremise.

dont make it go too late, and for the first party, make it short, and not too many people. tell her that you will have trashcans, and only clear sodas and water, so the carpate and furnature will not get stained. and same with the food, things that will not get stained. tell her that you would not mind moving the things that she is worrind about getting broken, into your room for the party, and locking the door.

;)

hope I Helped.

Have a great time!

-Kels

p.s.= you dnt have to have a party!! you could just have some girlies over for a sleepover! or go to the mall and/or movies and/or out to dinnfer and/or get nails/toes done!!!

i think i might have genital herpes... i have never had sex so how could i get it!? its like a ton of little bumps on my penis and i want to know how to get rid of it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me! i need to know, im so embarassed! ill rate 5's! and i also want to know if girls will still like me if they know i have it.. im guessing no. this sucks so bad so please help me out. and if it isnt herpes then please tell me what it is.. im too embarassed to tell my parents or a doctor. if you have ANY information at all, please tell me

EDITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1


I went to this sex, drugs & rock and roll thing. and i got a tun of brocures on stuff like this.

the info i am giving you is from them.

small pimples or blisters that crust over and scab like a small cut. the signs of herpes greatly vary.

WHAT IF I THINK I HAVE GENITAL HERPES?
see a doctor while syptoms are still present. the doctor will look at the area, take a sample from the sore(s), and test to see if the herpes virus is present. The test you should request is specific culture for HSV. This test will tell you weather you have HSV-1 or HSV-2. The test will not work of sores that have healed. It might not work if they are a few days old.
