Hi, my names Melanie.
I'm fifteen years old.
I love fashion, hanging out with my friends,
and drawing and writing along with a bunch of other stuff.
I used to have an old account here that was quite known for awhile,
but I sort of just lost touch with it,
so I decided to make a new one.
I'll try and help you the best I can,
just hopefully I didn't lose touch with my good advice, haha.
And feel free to IM me with your problem too.
I also put my myspace in a link down below,
if you ever want to add me & talk.
But incase you don't see it or something, it's:

okay well i'm 13 & the guy i like is 16. is that bad?? like he gives me signs that he likes me too but all my friends are going "laura, he's 16." & i go "so?". i just want to know if that is too much of an age difference. (link)
|
No, it's not a huge age difference at all. I mean think what if you two were like 40 or so? you'd only be 40 when he'd be 43. That doesn't sound that bad now, does it? Most parents have a couple years apart from eachother.
It just seems huge because 13 is the youngest age for a teenager, whereas 16 seems alot older - you can drive and you got alot of priviliges. Plus, whenever kids think ages, they associate them with grades too. So they think a seventh grader dating a tenth or eleventh grader sounds like a huge deal, but it's not.
Me and my boyfriend are like, two years apart. He's going to college next year, and I still got two years of highschool to go.
And who cares what your friend say anyways? You like him and that's all that should matter. They should just be happy for you.
I hope I helped.

was the movie texas chainsaw massacre based on real events? because i've always wanted to know!! (link)
|
The movies "Silence Of The Lambs" and the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" are based off a real-life killer ; Ed Gein. He didn't really use a chainsaw or anything like that, but he did infact wear the skins and keep the body parts and such. It's bascically the truth, yet slightly exaggerated to you know, make the movie scary to kids.
Isn't that nuts, though?
I hope I helped.

Do you think that Abercrombie clothes are expensive? If so do you own any of the clothes.? Just wondering people (link)
|
I think Abercrombie clothes are a little too expensive. Also for the fact that it seems that Hollister and Abercrombie tend to sell the same kind of thing, but Abercrombie tends to charge a little higher price.
But anyways, yeah, I think Abercrombie's expensive.
I hope I helped.

So im the type that always gives all my friends advice and now im the one in need.
My boyfriend and I had a fight 2 days ago.
And he emailed me saying he loved me and he was sorry.
And i dont want to lose him.
But im scared maybe this might be it.
what do i do?
I need him. (link)
|
If he apologized and told you he loves you, it sounds like he needs you just as much as you need him. And if you don't want to lose him, why end it?
Now I don't know how bad the fight was or what it was about or anything, but if it was that bad, maybe sit down and have a talk with him about it and try and resolve it calmly without fighting. And it'd be best to do this with every bad situation that comes your way so there's no fighting and yelling and breaking up.
But whenever you guys go to apologize, it's best to do it in person so you can truely see how sorry they are and hear their tone and everything. It's just the better thing to do. It shows more respect, also. So if this situation ever WAS to occur again ( hopefully it won't ), then you & him should apologize to eachother in person.
I hope I helped.

Okay, so I'm a 14 year old female. There's this guy in one of my classes, and he's a junior. Since the beginning of the year, he has always paid "special attention" to me, like teasing me and stuff. I even recall a while back in October-ish, I was walking in the hallway afterschool, l and he was with his friend, and he stopped to talk to me.
Now, he's always like looking at me in class, especially when I talk to any guys. But I don't know if I'm just imagining the signs or if he teases me just to look cool in front of his friends. Or maybe he's just a friendly guy.
Oh, let me add some more details about us, I guess. I gave him a present over christmas break (it was just a card lol) and he seemed to really like it, he had this big smile on his face. And he's always telling me how nice I look. Also, I'm the girl he talks most to in class (this isn't much though, because there arent a lot of other girls in the class and all the girls are freshmen) I expect HIM to tell ME if he likes me or not, because he's a junior, and if I say no to him (which I wouldnt), it shouldnt be a big blow to his ego. But he keeps on dropping hints that he likes me as something..more. That's where I'm getting confused. Luckily there's a winter formal coming up on the 9th that he can ask me to AND valentine's day 5 days later. Think I should ask him to the dance? (sorry, that turned out much longer than I planned it to).
Thanks for reading :3 (link)
|
It sounds to me like he likes you! Whenever it comes to guys and giving signs, they always tend to make it confusing, don't they, haha? But whenever guys tend to tease a girl and if he's always complimenting you and having a big smile on his face ; it def. sounds to me like he's interested. Just think of this though first: is he a huge flirt? Does he flirt with alot of girls? Because if then, you might want to reconsider where you want to go with this guy. Guys like this could cheat, and you wouldn't want your boyfriend flirting with other girls, would you? Also, there's the fact that he could be just leading you on. But I'm just putting that out there ; this guy doesn't sound the type ; he sounds interested. :]
Anyways, I'm rambling now, haha. I would totally invite him to the dance! Just the next time you two are talking ( maybe privately would be better ; not when like a bunch of his friends are in the conversation too ), just be like,"Hey, you going to that winter formal dance?" And if he says yes, just be like,"Oh, you going with anybody?" And see what he says. If he says yes, then just be like,"Oh, well, save me a dance? :]" But if he says no, just casually be like,"Well, I was wondering..if you'd like to go with me. You're a really cool and fun guy and I think we'd have a great time." And smile. If he does turn you down ( which I doubt! ), just tell him it's no big sweat, cause it really isn't. Sure it sucks, but you can still have fun @ the dance with your friends, and it'd be his loss anyway at a great time.
Just don't get discouraged if he doesn't ask you to the dance ; HE might be nervous and worried that you're going to say no! Even though guys always seem to be the ones who ask the girls out, and are cool & calm about it, they're really just as nervous as we are.
Good luck & have fun at the dance!

Not sure if this is the right category so I am putting it in both
Ok I love my friends to death. But they can be real pain in the butt sometimes. I found out my friend *Carl has a major crush on me. He is sweet and nice but just not my type.Physically and mentally. I have made this clear that there is no way of us getting together. My best friend *Sally is always trying to get us by ourselves. Like going to get things just me and him or always sitting by him. It is annoying. Also I feel like it is leading him on which is wrong. What do i do? It makes me uncomfortable ever since I found out about it Do I try to find someone else to get them off my back?... like that is an easy task by itself. (link)
|
I would sit down with your friend and have a serious talk. Explain to her once more ( in a more serious tone to show you mean business ), that you don't have those feelings for Carl, and never will. He's just NOT your type, and forcing him on you isn't going to make you like him more or anything, it's only going to make you more annoyed.
Tell her you appriciate her trying to help you get a guy and stuff, but you can do it yourself. It'd just be easier for you to find a guy because who knows you better than yourself? You'd be able to find your type easier than she would.
Also, I would just talk to Carl and keep it at a friendly level. Maybe mention something sometime during a conversation,"I love having a guy friend I can just talk to. Most of my guy friends never want to talk or nothing, ha. It's nice." ( Or something like that ). Just get the point across that you're glad he's your friend and everything, which'll give him the hint there's nothing more going to go on.
I wouldn't try and find someone else just to get someone else off your back. That's unfair to the person ( who may have feelings for you ) if you're just being with them to get others off your back, and it'd be unfair to you because you should find someone you want to be with.
I hope I helped.

Ok, a while back, i had one of my friends ask the boy i like if he knew who i was. We didnt really know eachother but i wanted to know if he knew who i was or not. He said yes. Then a couple weeks later a different friend of mine told him that i liked him and she asked him if he knew me. I dont why she asked him this again when i already knew but o well. Anyways, he said he didnt know me. The fist time he said he did know me and then when he found out that i liked him he said he didnt know me. Does that mean he dosent like me? (link)
|
He probably knows of how you are, but whenever he says he doesn't "know you", he might mean personally. He just means he can't really see if he likes you or not because he doesn't know your personality and everything. This is why you should try getting to know him better. :] Next time you're near him, make conversation ; say hi. If any of your friends are friends with him, make a hang out together. That way you can hang with him, but it won't just be the two of you alone and it will be more comfortable.
Just show him the real you and find out the real him and just get to know eachother better. Crack a few jokes, ask him his interests, hobbies, etc. And just show him how great you are!
I hope I helped.

my guy friend goes to a different school. he was supposed to go to the dance with this other girl but those plans fell through. i was thinking if he still wanted to go, i could get him a ticket. but maybe his plans fell through cause he didn't want to go??? i don't want to be turned down, but should i ask him anyways? i think it would be fun if he came. what should i say to him? (link)
|
The next time you're talking to him, I would just casually bring it up and be like,"Hey, remember how you were supposed to go with _____? Why did those plans fall through, didn't you want to go anymore?" ( See what he says, hopefully it's no ). And then just be like,"Oh well cause I was just thinking I think it'd be fun if maybe we went together, and if you still wanted to go I could get you a ticket and everything, I just didn't know if that's why those plans fell through, is if you didn't want to go." And just see what he says.
If he does turn you down, it's no biggie. Just go still and have lots of fun with your friends. Sure it'd be fun to go with a guy, but it's not going to ruin the whole time. :] You can still have a blast.
I hope I helped.

When a guy asks you to see a movie, does that necessarily mean it is a date? What if he is bringing one of his friends but doesn't care if you bring someone?
I suppose I am going to get different answers, but I'm sure there must be a way to figure it out.
Thanks! =) (link)
|
Hm, this is a toughie.
These kinda actions are one of those "it could mean either or" kinds of things.
Whenever a guy and girl usually go see a movie together and there's flirting and such involved ( maybe he even pays? ) that would be considered a date.
Even though if you typically invite other people along, it wouldn't be much of a date anymore. But guys always do the "wingman" thing. They invite a pal along to make them less nervous and to try and make conversation if there's the chance he's lacking in it. The wingman just makes the whole night a little less stressful, because he could be very nervous.
It would really depend on how the date went/goes. If he flirted/flirts with you and you flirt back and he might even offer to pay for your food or your ticket and he's being a gentleman and making conversation and showing interest, it sounds totally like a date to me!
But if it's just inviting a few pals along and cracking some jokes here and there, then it sounds just like a friendly sort of thing.
The only true way you'll ever get to know is if you just ask him, or maybe ask his friend. Just think back on the night after it happens, or think of it now if it already did and just try and think of maybe some slight flirtng or anything he might've done to show it was more than just a hang out thing.
I hope I helped.

My friends really make me mad! They say that if I bring my boyfriend to the dance that there not going to go. Thing is, I really like him a lot and we have been dating for like 4 months now. Should I let what they say affect my decision or not. Im so confused and I feel like crying!! Nothing even happened between them. They just do not like him. I asked them why and they said they dont know why but they just dont like him. (link)
|
Well right now you're "friends" are not being very good friends at all. They should just be happy for you. You found a guy that makes you smile and makes you happy, and they should be glad you have someone in your life like that ( that may be a reason actually they're acting this way - sometimes girls get jealous when their friends have boyfriends and they don't ).
I would sit down and talk with them. And once more, ask them what it is exactly they don't like about him. Whenever they answer they don't know, then just be like "Exactly. Why not give him a chance, then? See him and talk with him and get to know him. If you still don't like him, at least this time you'd have some sort of reason after getting to know him. But really guys, why aren't you happy for me? He makes me happy, isn't that all that should matter? Don't let his and mine relationship get in the way of you guys going to the dance."
If they were really good friends, they'd at least give him a chance and get to know him better and see that he really isn't a bad guy at all.
And even if you guys all do go to the dance, they don't all have to talk to eachother or anything. They can enjoy themselves and have fun with you seperately. You just might have to split a little time between your friends and boyfriend. This also is true with real life. It's not like they have to talk or hang out together. You can make time for the both of them. Maybe have Saturday your "hang out with friends" day, and Friday your "boyfriend day" or whatever works best with them and you. But it really shouldn't have to be that way, but if that's the only solution that's left, you might as well take it cause you shouldn't have to choose between them or anything.
But like I said, confront them and see what happens and see if they're really gonna be willing to give him another shot. If they were good friends, they would. And they'd already be happy for you.
I hope I helped.

Is 5'0" average height for a 16 year (almost 17) old girl? I was 4'10" when I was 11 years old. I'm now taller than my mom by about an inch.
I'm just so tired of getting practically tackled in the hallways at school because literally, no one sees me. (link)
|
You're a little under the average height. The average height for women is 5'4", 5'5"ish. But the body doesn't stop growing till around 18 years of age, so you still got a good while to grow some more.
I get tackled in the hallways too, but I'm 5'4". Everyone in my school are just jerks, haha. x]

you know how sometimes people look better on some days than others?
Why is that?
Like ill have a day where I look prettier than another day
and i used to think it was the clothes but then i would wear the clothes again
and it wouldnt look the same.
Same goes for guys,
why is this? (link)
|
There's alot of things that can make you look different that you usually do. If you're have a bad hair day, it may be looking different then it usually does. Some days, we have bad skin days and good so that'll change how we look a bit.
Also, there's the major one - the mood. If you're in a horrible mood, it's going to probably show up alot and you won't look as nice as you might normally do.
People jsut always have on and off days, depending on their mood, how their skin/hair/etc.'s being and just on how much effort they put into actually getting ready, and not look like they just tossed on some clothes and headed out the door.
I hope I helped.

my friend was over my house she acts like a stud we switched cell phones for 2 day during them 2 day i got over 15 messages from her girlfriend saying stuff i dont even want to mention should i ask her is she gay or play like i dont know
sinceraly "cluless" (link)
|
[EDIT: Yes, things are going to be a little different and such, but not totally. She's still the same person you know, the same friend. It's going to be a little tough to accept, but overtime I'm sure you'll get used to it. When she does come out and tell you, talk to her about it. Let her know at first that you might not be comfortable with her talking about her girlfriend or anything, but that you support her ; you just need some time to get adjusted. I'm sure she'll understand and she'll be glad you're willing to accept it. ]
I wouldn't just come out and ask her if she's gay, because maybe she's trying to wait and find the time where she's most comfortable & ready to let you know. Also, you never know ; it could all just be a joke with her and her friend. Me and my friend make weird pervy comments to eachother all the time, but we're not gay. Just let her be the one to tell you, but maybe help guide her along.
Whenever you guys go to switch your phones back, or see eachother next, just mention that you got alot of messages from this one girl, _____. You got like 15 of them. If she asks what they said, tell her. See what she says. If she doesn't tell you, she may not be ready to tell you. Or like I said, it could all be one big joke with a friend or something she's having. You just need to wait and see what happens. If she does turn out to be gay, she'll tell you, someday. Whenever she's ready and comfortable and feels like she'll be able to tell you and you'll understand and accept it. At least as of now you're partially aware your friend might be gay, so when the time comes for her to tell you, you'll be ready.
I hope I helped.

I'm 15. This boy is 18. But we really like each other. Is it legal to like .. date? Not have sex .. but just date? (link)

Yes, it's legal as long as the two of you don't have sex.

i have a bigg crush on one of my good friends brothers. she knows, and she swears she doesnt mind, but i think she does. should i go for it with him, or lay off and respect the relationship i have with my friend?
thanks! (link)
|
Well, I would have a serious talk with her about this. The next time you guys are alone, just mention it once more. Be like,"I know you said you don't mind already that I have a big crush on your brother and everything, but I'm thinking about going for it with him, and I just want to really make sure you're fine with this." And see what she says.
If she says she's uncomfortable with it, then respect her decision. I know it'll be hard getting over him, but "chicks before dicks", as people've said. What's more important: some guy that you'll probably later break up with ( seeing as most teenage relationships don't last later in life ) or a friend who could be around forever?
But if she doesn't mind, and I don't think she does, go for it! Just rememebr: to divide time between her and her brother. Don't spend a bunch of time with one, without spending alot with the other cause if you spend alot of your time flirting with him and hanging with him; she's gonna start feeling ignored. So if she invites you over to hang, hang with her. Maybe drop by his room and say hi or something, but hang with her. If he invites you over, hang with him and say hi to her and everything. Or, dependign how close her and her brother are ; you guys could all just hang together!
:]
I hope I helped!

Okay. I have a guy friend...And I love him soooo much...he's definitely my best friend. But in the beginning of our relationship, I told him that I have a step father. It was accidental...and now I regret it. Thing is - I DON'T have a step father...but somehow it spilled out. Now he is questioning our relationship and he doesn't think he knows the "real" me. He thinks I'm hiding something...I know it's kind of stupid...But I dunno. ;_;...Should I tell him that I DO have a REAL father? It's runining our friendship...I know, I know...it seems like a stupid reason...but we are supposed to be honest :( Should I tell him the truth? (link)
|
Of course tell him the truth. If you don't, your relationship could turn troublesome. Because imagine if he were to find out from someone else or some other way; he'd feel hurt and betrayed. And that much bring the "trust" factor down alot.
I would just let him know soon. Just be like,"I do have something to tell you. You know my step-father? I don't have a step-father, I have a real father. I don't know why I told you I had a step-father, but it slipped out for some reason. That's the only thing though I've not been truthful about. Everything else about me, is me."
Or something like that.
He might get upset that you weren't honest, but hopefully over time after he's to himself to think and everything, he'll get over it and forgive you. If you guys are best friends, I'm sure he will.
:]
I hope I helped.

i really want a tattoo for my 15th birthday! i want a small heart, maybe like an inch in size (just outlined). i want it on the front of my hip, just below the jean line (if your wearing ultra low-rise jeans). but im afraid what my friends will think of me. i dont want to sound snobby but i am popular in my school and go with the whole "classic girly girl from hollister/abercrombie". i dont want this tattoo if it makes me look trashy, especially at my age. what do you think? thank you for your opinion! =) (link)
|
A little heart on your hip? That's not trashy at all, nobody's gonna think badly of you or anything. Believe me, so many girls have that heart on the hip idea ; they all think it's cute. I've actually had that idea myself.
It'll look adorable, I'm sure all your friends'd love it. :]
I hope I helped.

How come people write double 'and' symbols? And why? example: peaches && cream. What's with the '&&' ??
thanks. I know this must sound stupid! (link)
|
Haha, no, not at all.
I don't really get why other peopel do it either. I guess they think it looks cute and stuff, cause have you ever noticed whenever girls make their profiles and stuff, everything's all lined up? Well I guess it looks cute, and it helps align all the words and everything.
To me, it sounds dumb. Cause if you really think about what they're saying they're gonig "peaches and and cream", which looks silly wheneevr I imagine people really saying it, haha.
I hope I helped.

they come in like almost every color and they're really comfortable and they have holes in the top of them. does anyone know what they're called and where you can get them? pictures would be nice too :] (link)

They're called Crocs.
Oh jeez, where CAN'T you get them? I see them everywhere, haha! Hm you could get them at K-Mart, Walmart, Payless, Journeys, and a bunch of other shoe stores sell them.

last night i had some friends over and one of them took my fone and text my ex saying "i love you" now i dunno if he got it or not because he never answered but how am i supposed to explain that to him? he's not gonna believe that someone else wrote it, hes rather cocky and still thinks i have feelings for him, which i kinda do but thats besides the point. What should i do? (link)
|
If he doesn't talk about it, and you don't talk about it, whose to say it ever happened, right? Just ignore it and pretend like you don't know what's going on. If he was to come up to you someday and ask you about the text message, be like,"Text messasge, what're you talking about? What day did "I" send it to you?" And look at the date and be like,"... I never sent that to you. But. I had ____ sleeping over that night..." And explain to him that you didn't send it, and she must've.
But seriously, if you can't even tell the guy the truth, and no matter what you say, he still doesn't believe you, just let the guy go with it. If he wants to be a cocky idiot and think every girl adores him, let him. Just tell him,"Fine, you won't believe me, think I love you. Have fun with that lie." And just forget about it. Who cares what he thinks? You know what really happened, and everybody else knows too.
I hope I helped.
