Does a bloke ever compliments a woman in a way like, you're very generous, how kind of you, you're beautiful, you're a good girl? Sometimes, it's bit too much, I guess. I don't give him much compliment but he does everytime we see each other. Or is he after something? I reckon I like him, at least a little. Known for a few months and we got to know each other. He's a nice man and became friends. Thank you everyone
What you are asking is something that only you might be able to answer as you have contact with this person and so should probably let your instincts help judge the situation. Some guys (and this is by all means not limited to just men because women are no different in this from my experience) will compliment you and be nice to you just so they can seem like a great person with the intention of wanting to get something from you. I am sure that every person has probably encountered someone who is like this. However, there are some people out there who are just nice and so say these things just because they are being nice. I do this very often and I do it for any kind of personal gain - it's nice to be nice to people. The best way to deal with something like this is to accept the compliment because he probably does mean it but also don't let your guard down completely because of the compliments and just use some measure of common sense and your gut feelings to see if he may be acting so nice to get something out of you. It might well be he likes you. Maybe he's just being friendly... there's no real way to know without actually knowing a lot more about him and what he might be like. I think the best advice I can give you is that it could go either way and the best thing you can do is just be on your toes.

Ok so i own a Siberian Husky pup he is almost 1 year old he is a great dog love him till death. He listens when inside the house great but i feel like its only because he feels like he is trapped. As soon as i let him outside he no longer listens and if he does something bad and i have to punish him i put him in a cage in the house then it takes me a week just to get his trust back he will not come when called will not drop a item when told to do so. And Like i said this is only once we leave the house when we are out doors or in the backyard of the house. He is fast a short 50 pound little ball of fire always on the move he has a huge backyard to play in and i try to get him to the dog park at least twice a week depending on the weather. I train with him everyday but he does not seem to get it he is very hesitant when i call him to me in the backyard and does not even acknowledge my presence at the dog park. He will be bad picking on a puppy at the dog park then we get home and he jumps up on the coach with me like were best friends and i am not mad at him. He knows i am the Alpha again great in the house wont touch food dropped on the floor until told to do so sits when told to even knows when i get him in the house and he was bad he knows to go into his crate. I tried looking everywhere online and everyone says the same thing just practice in your backyard bring him out on a leash i have tried it all as soon as he gets a inch freedom he takes a lot more then a mile. If anyone has advice i really appreciate it also food does not interest him i don't know if i already said that but if anyone knows like a irresistible dog treat that would also be great
I can only really go by what I have been told by other Husky owners as I don't own one but they require a LOT of structured training and a lot of space to be able to run free in which may explain why he becomes overly excited when he leaves the confines of the house. This may well be something you should try talking through with someone else who also owns one or better yet try and speak to some training schools who may be able to advise you a lot better.

Hi,
Is it normal for a male friend to offer female friend a cigarette and we both just stood by the street and smoked as we hadn't seen each other for a while but it was very enjoyable. Been friends for a few months back and we're quite open and straight to each other. I like him and we do joke. Now, we're both occasional smokers but he didn't have to offer me a cigarette. Just wondering, normal for a guy friend to do this or do they offer to any girls? Thanks!
It's perfectly normal today for this to happened and it is not really even limited to friends. I have many people who know someone I am with, who will introduce us and then after a while be offered a cigarette. This is normal and may come down to politeness if nothing else. I obviously decline as I don't smoke but it is always nice to be asked. :)

I'm in the process of wanting to commit suicide as I want to be with my son, I haven't got anyone at all, my partner ignores me blames me for what our son did, he wrote me a letter blameing me and how much he hates me and he wished I was dead instead, I'm having nightmares and dreaming of being with my son so so much, iv tryd to get help and I cant get any at all, I'm on medications and it makes me feel even worse, I sit up each and every night now as iv planned my suicide to the end, as I vet left at him on my own quite alot and i know I wouldn't be found till.i am dead, I need help and I cant get it so what's the point, I wouldn't be missed at all as I'm always on my own anyway, I tryd it last year and it felt so good as it took the pain away what I was feeling, cant believe I am still here, please help me or vive me son advice to help me please, next time I'm going to go somewhere very spe ial so I has to be right I do t want to wake.yp I'm done and fed up, iv found homes for my pets tht iv raised and they don't need me now, thank you for reading
Loosing someone is never something easy and it is worse still when you blame yourself for the loss. You said that you had a letter, was that letter from your partner telling you it was your fault? If so, then you need to remember that it is easy for someone to blame everyone else instead of taking responsibility and your partners way of dealing with these emotions is to place all the blame on you while thinking he/she is not to blame at all. With something like this blame is always passed around at who might be at fault but I believe things are just not that simple at all.
Did you know that your son was having some kind of problems? Did he come to you to talk to you about them or come to your partner saying he needs help? If not that I can't see how you can be blamed at all - we are not mind readers and even as parents we have certain instincts but those instincts go only so far - unless someone comes to us saying they need help and are willing to accept that help, it can be very hard to help them. I have no idea why your son did what he did but what you can't do is blame yourself or allow others to blame you and killing yourself I believe is selfish. You don't honour your son by doing what he did and it certainly won't fix anything either. I have had to deal with many people who wanted to commit suicide and what they all failed to do was realise the impact it would have on others. They said it would make the pain go away, make them feel better because they won't have to feel anything but the people they leave behind in their wake are the ones they will hurt and are the ones who have to deal with it. You are in a unique position to see how what happened to your son has impacted on you so you know all too well what would happen to those around you if you followed suit and did what your son did. Yes it may feel like everyone hates you or wants nothing to do with you but that doesn't mean they will not care if something happened to you.
Seek out someone who you can talk to. I don't know where you are from but try talking to your GP and explain how you feel and what you have considered doing and if they are able to refer you to someone you can talk to or get help from, they will be able to do this and refer you to someone. Talking about how you are feeling will help. Good luck and don't give up on life so easily. People around the world die every day from the most pathetic of things like hunger and starvation, something in this day and age should never happen and they struggle to hold on to their very last breath to live - so should you.

I keep cheating with unhealthy food each day. Tomorrow I'll start over, but I wanted to know if anyone had any tips and advice on how to strictly stay on my diet.
Changing your heating habits on a large scale can be quite difficult. The best way around what you are experiencing is to try and find an alternative way around your binges of unhealthy foods. For example if it is a sudden need for sugary products that temps you to eat unhealthy then try an alternative to chocolate. Dark chocolate that is high in Cacao content (65%+) helps a lot with this and it only takes a small square or two whereas milk chocolate doesn't have this effect and is also very high in sugar. Other alternatives I found useful were nuts or grapes which I would keep with me so when I felt like I needed to eat something or felt I need something sweet I had those on hand. It might mean you are adding something additional to your diet but it also means what you are adding is something that is healthier than most things. Once you get into this routine and pull yourself away from unhealthy foods it'll only be a matter of time before you won't crave anything unhealthy at all. But do remember that you can treat yourself when you feel like it, perhaps one meal a week on a weekend but this would be up to you.

so, I gave my crush my number early this week...I said f it im gonna go for it, so I did...well he called me that same night, we talked on the phone for an hour, laughing, nice convo...well I seen him two days later and he came up behind me patted me on the back and said you're a good girl, smiled at me and walked away...ok...wtf...like wtf do men want, a slut bucket with no brains, a chic with a bunch of kids...cuz im am totally confused......I may be diff as in blunt and outspoken, have some morals, values, self respect, im not the run up and down the street, clubby type, i got too work, take care of what i need too, I don't ask anyone for anything etc....I like being at home that's cuz ive grown up etc but that really shouldn't intimidate a man or a guy who calls himself a man....can someone help me out with this......thanks
I'm unclear as to what he could have meant by what he said and I think the only person who may even know what he was on about so might be an idea to ask him. If you have his number then you can always try texting him to ask him or alternatively when you speak to him on the phone again just ask him what he meant.
I will say though that if he in fact was referring to the way you came across after talking on the phone and was just expecting you to be some slut who will throw themselves at him then he's not worth the bother. Having self respect, values and morals is not a bad thing and in all honesty in the long term it would serve you better. Sometimes girls will act like sluts with no brains because it's what the guy wants and they believe it is the best way to get the guy. I don't think any person should have to lower their own self worth for the sake of getting a person to like them. Be true to who you are and if he doesn't like it, to hell with him - guys like him come by the dozens.

How much bleach would it take to kill a 5'4" 115 LB Female?
I would imagine quite a bit but bleach oxidizes or burns tissues in your mouth, esophagus, and stomach so drinking enough to cause death would be pretty difficult if your mouth and throat are melting.

So the other day my 15 year old was on facebook and told us she was getting messages from this who is 18 who lives in California and we live in Georgia. My mom is raising her but my niece told us that this guy told her that if she didn't perform for him he would edit photos of her onto a naked body and post them on the internet. We went to the police and they said since he didn't do it he didn't commit a crime. I always thought this was illegal. Is there anything my mom and I can do about this legally?
Although the procedures over there would be different to how they are where I am (I am in the UK) technically the police is probably right but that is not to say that you can't do anything about it. Firstly, the guy has been threatening your daughter and IS attempting to blackmail her - this IS a crime and it is something the police would have to look into. I believe as he is from a different state to you it the matter would fall under the jurisdiction of a different law enforcement group (FBI perhaps, again I am completely unsure of this). All the messages he has sent to your daughter she should keep, these are all pieces of evidence against him and proof to show he has been attempting to blackmail her. You should approach the police again and point this out and if not seek legal assistance from a professional on where you and your daughter stand on this and what you can do - there might be a different avenue you can pursue or a different enforcement group who specialise on crimes such as this.

So I pretty much want to forget about my dad he hurt me a lot and I even searched the internet for help but nothing helped me My dad was abusive and he cheated on my mom a lot. He also sexually assaulted me when I was little. Pretty much my mother had me at a young age around 15. And my 'father' was fine and all as I can recall. But when my mother left to work he would bring me with him and he would pick up a woman and bring them over to our house and well you know have sex with them. What was worse is that I had to be in the room with them when they were doing that, I remember when he did that and he turned all the lights off cuz u suppose he didn't want me to see I dont know and when he did I would cry silenty. He left me when I was 5 and I never knew he was abusive towards my mother till the day he hit her in front of me and my brother and I tried defending her and when she called the police he left and I heard he is in mexico now I always try forgetting him but its hard and he pretty much affected my life. Please give me some advice......
Hello. I think something like what you have been through is not easy to work past especially when you try and do so by yourself and trying to forget about it in the hopes that it will just go away is not going to be a good way to try help yourself either because unfortunately it will not just go away, as you have probably already noticed.
At this point I think the best thing you can probably do is try and see a counsellor who you will be able to talk to and who will be able to help you. I think this is the best thing you can do for yourself.

I want to start a youtube channel. Any ideas on things to do, and how to become popular?
Ideally this is something YOU should be asking yourself. When starting a channel people do so on a subject they are interested and passionate about because it then keeps them interested and they also have a level of knowledge on what they are posting about. For example if I said you should do it on all things Star Wars, unless you are a fan and enjoy the subject it will just be boring for you to do - see what I mean?
Find something you enjoy doing but then I have seen some people out there who create a channel and push out videos on just everyday things where they voice their opinions on social and political events from around the world. You can pretty much do a channel on anything YOU like.
As for getting followers this does take time. Best way to start is by having your friends follow and posting details of your channel on social media (facebook etc). Talk to others who might have a similar channel to seek their advice on how to reach out to potential subscribers, some people out there which channels and a large following are nice people who will try to help.
Sorry I can't be more help than this, my only involvement with a channel has been on the production and editing side and not on the marketing side of things.

I'm really wanting to color my hair with washable markers but I want to know if it could permanently mess my hair up will it and thank you if you answer my question.
Curious, but why are you using markers? I would say personally, that you shouldn't use anything in your hair that could risk damaging it and that would be anything that is not meant for your hair (although saying that dying your hair does damage it too).
If you really have to use markers then I would suggest trying only a little somewhere in your hair as a test to see the effects of having it on there and if there's any problems. Ideally though I would say grab yourself some hair colour to use. There are a huge amounts to choose from that range from sprays to semi-permanent colours all of which come in a variety of colours. I personally used the sprays which wash out whenever I dressed up as the Joker for Halloween and it looked excellent but the colour did dry into a powder so on bright colours or wet weather it could pose a huge problem. Saying that though if you are using water soluble markers they too will have the same problem if you have rain to contend with.
Hope this helps somewhat.

I want to know from a guy's point of view is it ok for a girl to ask a guy out?
In short, yes. In this day and age everyone likes to be seen as equal - men and women. And as such it seems a little sexist to say that its a mans job to ask someone out. It used to be a woman's job to cook and clean but we don't stick to such archaic (and ridiculous) beliefs anymore. In the same way I have always believed if a girl (or woman) likes a guy then by all means just ask him out. Women can be really shy but men can be pretty much the same too so a woman making that first move is never a bad thing in my opinion - and I'm not just saying that because I tend to be shy at times too. :)

I am a 17 year old girl. Ok to begin with i prefer to talk to persons online... because i think it is fun and well the friendship is easy to maintain. For instance i will videochat when i am free or even have whatsapp calls which is easier as i dont have to go out much . I like to go out but my mum always complain . Also i like languages so i tend to like speaking to other persons with the languages i am learning. In person sometimes i am really happy one min. Then the next i think about life and i get angry and sad . After i talk to my online friends who i known for 2 to 3 years i feel better . My family can't really stand me before they say i get angry quickly and i dont communicate much with them. I think i no one want to talk to after they have known me for a very long time because well for instance i am not white but i like spanish guys but where i love there isnt any my age .they are either younger or older by a lot. I had an online bf who was 8 years old .. we dated for 2 years but then he we had an incident and we stopped talking and we were friends for a year. Then ine day he messaged me and said that he wants me to delete him off of fb and also block his number and everything else. I asked why and he said because i deserve better. I told him i wont and after talking he said we will still talk then . But now he doesnt talk to me . And crazy enough i actually think i really really like him ...like teally xlose to lovong him and i hate it.
My family life is also in a mess and well i graduated from high school this year and my furthe4 atudies is killing me ....i want to taln to him and i want to know if liking online friends is really bad because i know of the dangers but i am careful.
I also dont know what to do about my anger problemas. My online friend who normally visits my area is coming for his 4th visit and i want to meet him but i dont know how to tell my family because they said that i should end all those relationships but i cant just stop talking to him..i mean he is 15 and have a lot of problems like me but we always talk about it and help each other just like face to face friends. Please help me ...
Hi. I used to be in the same position as you once, almost all my friends were online only and I had pretty much created my whole life online including a relationship that lasted 3 years. It was great but a time came when I couldn't simply maintain it any further because you can't hide away from reality or the outside world forever.
Talking to people online is far simpler - it takes away a lot of complications and judgements and in a way I really do miss that a lot. But with my hobby that I do (magic) I have to face people and be able to communicate with them whilst maintaining a level of professionalism and when I first had to do this I simply couldn't, it took a lot of time for me to be able to get to where I am now.
I think your family want you to stop simply because they may see that your online life is taking over as well as the obvious risk of online relationships although saying that, as long as you are careful it is never an issue. A person can just as easily meet a psychopath going into a bar or club.
There are a lot of things here to address so I will try my best to cover them all but you said sometimes you'll be happy and suddenly thinking about life will make you angry and sad. What is it about life that makes you suddenly feel anger and sadness?
This friend you mentioned who had asked you to delete his number and block his facebook. From my perspective it seems he was looking for sympathy. I say this only because you should ask yourself, if you thought you didn't deserve someone and you wanted to just let them go, would you message them to tell them to block you or would you simply just block them yourself? I can block anyone I want to on facebook and block phone numbers from calling me so I never need to message someone to tell them to block and/or delete me so (and I could be wrong) it just seems strange he would message just for this reason unless he was hoping you would react the way that you did. When seem very unsure about your feelings towards him so allow me to ask you this, when you are told you cannot have something isn't your first reaction to want it even more? Then when you DO have it eventually you realise you hadn't wanted it at all. So maybe you only think you want him and probably actually don't?
As for your anger problems, this is something that you may need to talk to someone who can provide you with a deeper understanding of the problem, like getting to the source of why you feel angry and then finding ways to manage these emotions. I don't know where you are from but you may be able to see if there are people (counsellors) who might be able to help you with this. There are also anger management classes that you can try (again, Google may be able to help show you where you can find some near to where you are). If you need to chat further please feel free to message and I will try help more as this seems quite complicated as so much is going on. Sorry if I had missed anything.

alot happened between me and a guy..he end up taking my v card and its been 2-3 years, he ended friendship for no apparent reason..i have a opportunity to talk him again on facebook, like now i can add him and message he blocked me in the past..he hurt me alot. i used have feelings for this guy,and almost over him. i will always care for him tho. but in a relationship now with a new guy who treats me well and stuff. i feel guilty at thought of this..should i add the old guy and be friends again or let my heart ache little longer and get on with life eitherway with the new guy?
Although you deserve some answers as to why he may have treated you in the way that he did, I can't help but think that no answer will justify his actions and sometimes guys can just be jerks (that was the lightest way I could put it). If he broke things off with you not long after taking your v card it can be concluded that maybe that was all he was interested in?
Now as for adding him to talk to him and try to be friends... if he was after friendship I would think he would have come back and spoken to you and made some kind of effort before now. You still clearly have some feelings for him and this is bad on two fronts. Firstly, your feelings for him could open you up to be emotionally manipulated by him. Although you after friendship in your heart I detect that you feel a far deeper emotion for him than just friendship and if this is true you need to ask yourself, if he was to show you any kind of romantic or physical interest would you be able to resist it and tell him no thanks I have a guy I'm with? If you have any doubts about being able to do that then it will probably be in your best interest not to message him at all because you will then not only risk your own feelings (if he does mess you around) but, secondly, you will be putting at risk your current relationship.
What you do really does depend on how strong you feel you are on this. If you are painfully waiting for this guy then what's to say he has changed? He may well end up messing you around again but this time instead of just hurting you he will also end up complicating things with your current relationship. That is, unless you feel you can handle any outcome or situation it may present in which case you can message him and see how it goes from there and if you feel something isn't right, you can just as easily block him and just move on.

My alcoholic mother neglected my education from age 5 by "unschooling" me (it's code for lazy parents who are too prideful to admit their failure in homeschooling) I'm going to be 18 next year and I've never been so depressed and hopeless.
I tried to motivate myself to catch up academically years ago, but it just made me too upset to even open a text book.
I have no idea what to do. I feel like I have no future.
It seems you are at a stage where you want things to change but cannot bring yourself to try or push forward and make those things happen as is evident from what you said happened when you tried some years ago. The best advice I can give you is to try again and then keep on trying until you push past this mental block that stops you.
I did absolutely useless at school because of bullying being a major problem at my school and as a result I skipped so many lessons I just ended up doing really bad academically. But hope certainly is not lost because I picked myself back up and went at it again with college and after that with university which I started a few years back on a part-time basis. This meant whilst working I was studying from home towards a degree in psychology (am currently on a year out).
Start with something simple if you'd like, perhaps a short course that may have some kind of interest for you and then go from there. If going full time back to university or college doesn't appeal you can always try a university similar to mine where they will send the materials to you at home to study and work towards your qualifications but obviously with this kind of study you need to be able to motivate yourself a lot as you don't have a lecturer constantly telling you to get on with the work.
Make a future for yourself if you feel you don't have one and see what takes your interest out there. You'll find learning all this stuff is actually a wonderful experience. You could even opt to try see if you can find a company that are offering apprenticeships in certain job roles. With these you will have the opportunity to work and learn as you go in your chosen field of interest. I hope something here helps at all.

My college's tuition (including dorm) is going to be about 18k a year. I also have to pay a car payment of $300 a month and insurance of $120. So if I'm rounding up my expenses would be around 23.5k a year not including gas and some food expenses though I'm on a meal plan for 7 meals a week so I wouldn't have to cook that much as I usually only eat twice a day.
If I work somewhere between part-time and full-time can I afford my college's tuition?
This would be in the state of Florida...
Since you already have a base idea of how much it will cost per year for college you will need to find out what a job in Florida that you can do will pay and see if the figures balance out.
You have to remember one very important detail though. If you are studying and working as well you will be limited on the jobs you are able to apply for and do because of the amount of time that college will take up, especially since I am assuming you will be studying full-time. Being in college will mean you may only have weekends or a few days (if even that many) in the week for work, and this is not taking into account the time you may need to complete assignments. This will be something you will need to look into because the last thing you want to do ,is end up piling far too much onto yourself only to then realise you're struggling to keep up with all of it.

My ex bf and i are seeing each other for almost two years on a monthly basis and yes we do have sex we use to speak almst everyday but then thmmgs just suddenly change so we dnt speak so much anymore anywayz i saw him 3 weeks ago i havent heard from him since sunday so i textd hm tuesday and told him about a movie he musnt forget to download for me coz my pc is broken he read it but ddnt reply i texd him new year eve again he ddnt read or reply i thnk he just deleted it so when it came to new year i decided to phone him bt then asked if he got my text and he said yes he ignored it on purpose and then i said ok happy new year..he ddnt even wish me and stuff..what does that mean? Am i right when i say he wants nothing to do with anymore i dnt knw what i did wrong..he probably move on long ago hey? I found myself crying so much on new year it really suck :'(
I dont knw what to do or think,i havent heard from him since..please help ..was that hs way of tlng me he ignored my msg on purpose to leave hm alone,he moved on and wants nothing to do with me anymre..whether or not its true do u think i will hear from him again,i decided to rather stay away
Hi. My guess would be that he has either decided to move on or is possibly seeing someone else so has decided to just push you aside because of this. I think the best thing you can do is just leave him to it and move on. The problem with you seeing and sleeping with your ex is that you will find it hard to move on because your feelings will be focused entirely on him. It seems from the way you speak that you do have some feelings for him whereas I would guess that his being with you and the erratic way he kept in touch was simply just a matter of him having someone there to fill the void while no one else is there (someone to be with and have sex with without the official attachment of being together). Now he seems to have decided he no longer needs that for whatever reason that might be. The best thing you can do for yourself at this point is to start fresh for yourself. It might take time but know that it will be his loss at the end of the day. I think more importantly it shows a lack of respect towards you from him and that is something no person should have to tolerate especially since you have not really done anything wrong at all and he seems to have just been really nasty towards you. Don't let anyone walk all over you in this way - you don't deserve that nor should you have to put up with it from anyone.
You may hear from him at some point down the line, this is generally the way things work in a situation like this and if you do it will be up to you on what you wish to do but at this point he seems to have shown you nothing but contempt and disrespect and if he does come crawling back at some point you'll need to ask yourself if his reasons for doing so are genuine or if he is simply only doing so because he thinks it will pass the time until he does the same thing to you again and cut you loose when he feels like it for whatever reason that might be.

Hi everyone! I really hope someone can help. I've been struggling with money for most of my life; I have never been able to save money or to budget properly.
I am a junior in college. I'm very lucky that I don't have to worry about loans or books. I live on campus, so my living expenses (aside from groceries) are covered, too. I work on campus, and am currently capped at 10 hrs a week, so I only make about $200 every paycheck (twice a month).
I'm ashamed to admit it, but I run out of money right before every paycheck. I'm lucky if I'm left with $10 in my bank account. I don't understand how my friends are able to go shopping or get their nails done or even go to Starbucks and are seemingly unconcerned about their finances.
Looking back at my bank account, there are no large purchases, just small things; toothpaste, a cup of coffee, Chapstick. I guess it all added up. On occasion I do treat myself by going out to the movies or going out to eat. Apparently, just going out once or twice is enough to put me in financial ruin. I've had to borrow money from my parents on several occasions; they always oblige but also understandably give me a lot of flack for it.
If it's not already clear, I don't have any savings, either. I have saved up for large things like a plane ticket and a laptop, but this was achieved over the course of nearly a year by sending half of my paycheck to my parents every time it came in - although sometimes, I had to take some of the money back because I just couldn't make it.
I'm the only person I know who regularly ends up with only a few dollars in their account before payday. What am I doing wrong? How can I prevent this?
Thank you!
Just to make sure I have worked this out right (I was always bad with math) you make $200 every 2.5 weeks or so ($400 a month)?
Firstly that doesn't really sound like all that much but then I don't really know the situation where you are in terms of cost of living (food etc). The reason it may seem your friends have more is probably because they are getting external funding such as money from parents or they have a job where they are doing more hours. I am curious as to why you are capped at 10 hours a week? Is this simply because it's the only amount of time you are able to work or is that because of a legal restriction for students?
Short of looking for another job that perhaps pays better or offers more hours the first thing you can do is sit down and work out exactly where all your money is going and what you are spending on. For example when you buy food you may find it easier to buy in bulk the same item you find you buy every week because it'll work out cheaper. Switching brands may also help. Over here in the UK we have the popular brands but also the same product that are store brands and most times the differences in taste is extremely minor if any at all but the price differences are extremely huge. As an example, a can of Heinz baked beans costs £0.75p or you can buy the Tesco's own store brand which costs £0.24p - less than half the price. This is just an example (prices are taken from the Tesco web site so they are accurate prices I've not made up) but once you plan out what you need for a whole week lets say you may end up saying more because you can buy in bulk (same example as above but a 4-pack of Heinz costs £2.00 but spend same amount on cheaper brand and you get 8 cans instead). These are small ways that may help make a difference especially over the course of the whole month and hopefully you'll find you have more money in pocket to be able to enjoy yourself a little more and treat yourself because that's important too.

What do I do if my friends make fun of me for being late in puberty
Just ignore it as best you can. In honesty there's not really anything you can do to speed it up so when it happens it will happen and it does so at different times for everyone. So it's a little later for you but it's no big deal and certainly nothing to make fun of but some people will use whatever they can just for an excuse to make fun. Best thing you can do is laugh with them about it and I'm pretty sure they will eventually just get bored. :)

I'm really insecure in my relationship because of what happened to me in my past relationship. He cheated on me after 4 years together.
Now I feel like I'm much more paranoid in my new relationship. Every text he gets, every snapchat he receives, I'm thinking "who is that" becuase I'm so insecure from what happened to me in the past.
How can I try to overcome this? I know I need to try and take his word for things but I just can't help and feel like he's going behind my back doing something he's not supposed to. It all stems from my past relationship and how hurt I really was and how it just shattered my trust with any guy. My boyfriend reminds me how much I mean to him and how he would never do anything to ruin our relationship. I feel like if I keep being this insecure though I will ruin what we have.
Insecurities like this happen especially when you have been hurt in the past, it can take a long time to be able to overcome them, especially the paranoia that comes with them because of the fear that the next person will do the same thing.
In a way you are right though, if you continue to keep pushing your insecurity may end up being the reason things fall apart. The best thing to do is be honest with your boyfriend and talk to him about how you feel. I assume he knows what you have been through so just explain to him that it left you with a lot of trust issues but you are trying to work through them and you don't want to ruin what you have with him so there might be times you will just need him to be patient with you. I think as long as you both are talking about things it'll be okay. Did you give yourself time to recover from such a harsh relationship? It could be that you moved on far too fast and not gave yourself time to be able to heal and get over what had happen.
Is he open with you about messages he gets and such? If he is then it should hopefully make things a little easier. If this feeling becomes a serious problem then you can always try and speak to a councillor who will hopefully be able to help you come to terms with what happen and hopefully move on from it. You were hurt emotionally quite deeply and something like that takes time to heal. It will help though if your boyfriend knows what is going on with you and tries to ensure that your mind is kept at ease.
