here to help. ask me if you really want my info.

advice

okay i'm only 13 but i have a lot of problems. this guy asked me out like an hour ago. i kind of know him..but not that well...but he seems really nice and caring and he really likes me a lot. the problem is that i feel weird. i kind of like him, but theres some other people i kind of like too. he seems to care about a lot and really like me. should i give him a chance? i feel really guilty..but should i keep going out with him for awhile and give him a chance?

I think you should tell this guy who asked you out that youd like to get to know him a little better, and maybe that will take the wierd feeling you have away. You could also explain to him that you think he seems nice and carring, and would love to hang out with him some time, in order to get to know him. Possibly, you'll want to explain that you kinda like a couple of other people and are having a hard time sorting out your feelings. I'm sure once you get to know him, you'll make the choice of wether or not to go out with him.

Hope I helped! ♥

Ok see i went on a trip and first i asked my best friend to go wth me but there was no more room on the airplane. i kno if she did go we would have a BLAST! but then my other friend's mom talked 2 my dad and my dad invited her and the SOME HOW he found a ticket for her. i didnt kno what to say about that or even what to say to my best friend. she was a little pissed when she found out, but i hate when she is pissed at me ! i love her like a fat kid loves cake we have been though everything 2geter

I think you should sit down with your friend and explain everything to her. I think you should also talk to your dad and explain to him that you didnt invite your other friend and you wanted your best friend to go and now she is mad at you. I would also tell your best friend what you said in your question, that you hate when she gets pissed at you, and you love her like a fat kid loves cake. It would probably help to mention you'd have more fun with her than your other friend!

I hope I helped.

theres this boy that i've liked for a long time but since i havent kissed a boy before he calls me prude and says he wont go out with me cuz of that. then he says well show me that you're not prude but i dont want to kiss/make out with him just to prove that to him but i really like him alot and i hate everyone calling me prude. what do i do?

I think its important to stick to your morals, or whatever. If he is going to say things like that, he isnt worth your time and obviously doesnt know that you're a million times better than any girl who would makeout//kiss him just to prove they arent a prude, or whatever. on the flip side, if you're not going to do anything with a guy then sure, people are going to call you a prude, but i dont think you should comprimise what you feel is right for the simple reason people are calling you a name. sure, it might be annoying, but kissing him to prove you're not, is like jumping off a bridge because someone says to. but then again, he could WANT you to kiss him because he likes you back, and wants to be your first kiss, and then will ask you out. boys are confusing. =/

i hope i helped some.♥

okm my best friend is mad at me because im goin out wth this guy that i really like alot and she thinks im making a big mistake.
should i break up with him or will she gradually begin to stand by with me and my decision

I think you should talk to your friend about the situation ((in person)), and try to get her to understand where you're coming from. While you're talking to her stay chill, dont blow up on her face if she says something you dont agree with. Also, be open minded when she says things and try to see things from her point of view, because often when people like someone alot they block out the bad things in the person. I think your friend is just trying to help you but you should talk to her about it so everything ends up okay.

I hope I helped!

Everyday, my neck hurts really bad. Sometimes it hurts worst one day, and feels better the next. I've got into this really bad habit of cracking my neck. My neck cracks so loud that my dad was a room away, and he could hear it. I've talked to my doctor but she told me to keep cracking it and stretching it. But I'm not sure if cracking helps or hurts me. Do you think I have arthritis? I'm only 13! Does anyone else have neck/shoulder problems? What can I do about this?

I have this same problem! I've been having it for months now and all I do is crack my neck. It doesnt really help any, but I went to the doctor about it and she said that everyone has a spot in their body where their "stress goes to" ((her's is in her toes, i dont know what she told me this! eww)) but mine is in my neck apparently. The same could be with you. I dont really feel stressed but oh, well. She knows what shes talking about I guess. WEll, anyways, a couple of days ago I went to Kohls and got a new pillow and its like escpecially for people who sleep on their sides, and it made my neck feel 9278904829038492834989283904 better. I swear, you just need a new pollow, or it helped me anyways.

sorry, its a long answer. I hope I helped you, some!

can someone please give me advice on how i can loose like 10 pounds bye aguest or sept ! THANKS YOU S0 MUCH ! ILL RATE 5 FOR GOOD ANSWERS !

If you run a mile Monday-Friday, and workout a little bit everyday. I would suggest doing crunches everyday because that gives you lots of muscle. Eating healthy is important too. Make sure you eat something for breakfast, because studies have shown kids who eat breakfast weight less that kids who dont. I would think Cherrios, and Special K, and Rasin Bran are all healthy. Try cutting your portions when you eat in half. Staying physically active plays a big role. If you're going to work out, dont be suprised if you gain some weight if you're starting to get some muscle. Muscle weights more than fat, and that can really discourage people if they dont know it. Good luck to you!

I hope I helped you some. =]


EDIT--
eat peanut butter too, because it fools your body into thinking its full, and you lose weight

okwell my sister got caught sneaking out and ever sincemy parents wont let me do anythng even though i would never do that. so is there anyway that i can get them to relax, and see that im not like her?

please help!!!

I would talk to your parents about it, and slowly take on more responsibility around the house. Thats what my parents always tell me if they dont they I am responisble enough for something. Your parents may also be doubting your trust so I would try to always follow through with what you say to them. I'm sure over time this will change, but I think talking to your parents could help you. Also, try to act more mature, and adult like.

I hope this helps, and your parents let you do stuff again! =]

okay i wrote a book and at the moment i'm typing it and making corrrections to it, but how do i get it published?

All you have to do is send it into as many different publishing companies as you want. You can also write a letter to a publishing company asking for any advice of help they could give you.

I hope this helps! =]

Can i ask seriously. When people come on this. Do they answer questions genuinely to help people and hopefully help them through a tough patch or whatever; or do they do it for ratings? It makes me mad when you see a confused person askin a serious question; only for it to be answered by someone. Who at the end makes it obvious(or seemingly) that they don't care byu saying "please rate"Ok i know they jus want acknowledgement and appreciation. But if the person is willing to or want to im sure they will. Why do you ask or say things like this? I really don't know so any answers are appreciated.
Anthony

I personally dont care what the person rates me. I am here to help people and whether or not they take my advice is up to them. If i have helped someone its nice to know by getting a rating, but as long as I have atleast attempted to help someone, it makes my day better.

I hope this helps you. Honestly. =]

I made the cheerleading squad this year and i love it.. but our coach said any girls that argued or talked about each other behind their baQs or caused drama were going to be kicked off the squad.. and there is a girl on the squad that is so mean to me.. she makes fun of me but says she is just pickin but it bothers me and she says rude stuff that makes me mad.. but i havent said anything to her about it because i'm afraid it will make her mad and start a fight but i'm rele tired of being treated like that... wut should i do?!?

I think you should confront your coach about it, or leave an annonomoys(sp?) note on your coaches desk or wherever explaning the situation. If you are afraid of what the coach will say, I would try telling one of your parents about it so they can talk to the coach. Other than that I would say the only thing left to do would be to ask the girl to stop, and explain that it makes you mad even if she is just kidding. Thats all I can think of.

I hope this helps. =]

Ok, i had a boyfriend and we were totally in love, but we barely saw eachother (once or twice a month) because we both went to different schools and were in all honors and ap classes (aka TONS of hw). In the end he ended up breaking up with me because "I love you, but i really cant b attached to someone right now." We still ended up being best friends, but about a week ago he told me that he had never told his mom about us breaking up, and i asked him y. He told me that it was because he still loved me (after 2 months), and that he could never take down the picture of us that i gave him for valentines. We're going to the same school next year, and he wants to get back together then....should i go for it because i love him...or just not put the used gum back in my mouth?

I think any kind of guy that says he still loves you after 2 months defintly deserves a second chance. Once you go to the same school, I am sure things will be much better. Your guy seems really sweet and I know its really "cliche", but whats meant to be will find a way, and I think your love for each other has found its way.

I hope it helps you. =]

Ok..My friend Max brought this friend with him to my house and like to where we work and everything and like my and his friend, MarC, had a connection you know like I'd known him my WHOLE life and like we were best friends or something and like at the end of the summer he has to go back home to GA and i live in NC and im worried that ill never see him again or talk to him or nething is there anything i can do to like keep in touch since it would be too far to call all the time and im not sure if he has a computer?!?

I rate HIGH!

Writing letters would be your best bet if he doesnt have a computer, but you could always ask him if he does. You can also get his number, just incase you want to call him for a while. I would spend as much time with him as you can and carry around a camera to take pictures when you guys are together. I would also make him a going away box, with a letter explaining how you're going to miss him and stuff and put it in the box, along with the pictures you take a stuff.

I hope this helps you. =]

You can go to free health clinics, that can not only educate you more about sex, and STD's, they can test you. Its free and totally confidential. They can also give you condoms and all that sorta stuff.

My family wants to get another dog. We already have a Bichon Frise and we would like to get another small dog, maybe smaller that a Bichon Frise. Does any body know of any good dogs, that work well with children, are cute, arent that expensive, and would work well with another small dog? My Bichon Frise is very sweet if that matters for anything. Thanks!

I have a Dauchsund, or however you spell it (mostly known as a weiner dog), and she is absolutely the sweetest dog in the world! We've had her since she was little, and we also have another dog that she gets along with. Shes also very good with children, all the kids I baby sit adore her, and its hard not to fall in love with her. She wasnt really inexspensive, but we got her from a pet store, and they always seem to raise the price. I am sure if you looked in the newspaper classifides, or local breeders you could find one that was cheap.

I hope this helps you! =]

Ok..I have reeeally curly hair. I want it to be straight but when I try to straighten it there are 2 problems:
1. It takes me 1 and a half to 2 hours to get it completely straight.
2. My hair only stays straight for a day or overnight..even if I just straightened it.

Are there any easier ways to make my hair straight and make it stay straight for a while?

Thanks ahead of time. I will rate high for helpful answers.

Sincerely-
Curly wanting to go straight

I know this may not be the cheapest way, but you can get a perm at a salon and there are also other choices besides perms you could get done. I would suggest calling the salon you go to and ask what they could do for your situation, also call other salons close by.

I hope this helps you! =]

ok i just got back from my 5 day cheer camp and we stunted almost 24/7 and i am really sore! i've taken advil to try to get it to go away but it doesn't seem to be working! i can barely walk and pick things up its so bad! what are some good ways that you guys use to help the soreness go away? thanx!

i would contiune to take advil, but make sure you take it as often as it says to on the bottle, because that medicine really stops working every 4-6 hours. i would also take a nice warm bath. bengay, and iceyhot are lotions that help releive soreness. i personally use iceyhot (which you can find in walgreens and stores such as that, by the band aids and stuff) and it really works. you could also use a heating pad, and buy a self massage-thingy at places such as bath&bodyworks or bed,bath,and beyond.. and massage your sore muscels. plenty of rest also helps!

i hope this helps you out! =]

How often should you change the your razor head for shaving your legs/under arms/pubic area? There's nothing on the box. I use Venus if that helps.

roughly, every 10-14 days, or sooner if you notice where you are shaving is not silky smooth. it also depends on how quick your hair grows back/how thick it is, and how often you shave. if you have thick hair that grows back quickly and you shave everyday, then you will probably need to change you razor head within a week to 10 days. if you shave every other day, to every couple days your razor will last longer.

i hope this helped! =]

You know those spongey things that you use in the shower? I forget what they're called..neways! How long should you use the same one?

you can keep the same one for as long as you like, but i've read you should wash them in the washing machine every 1-2 weeks, and let them air dry. this is to get all the dirt and stuff that comes off you in the shower.

i hope this helped! =]
