advice

im going to a new school next year, and ive asked alot of questions about that already. everyone is like, just be really outgoing and stuff like that. Well, i am an outgoing person and really crazy.. but im also EXTREMELY shy around people that i am not used too. I know that i can picture myself being outgoing, but then when i am in the situation, i have horrible nerves, like i turn red REALLY EASILY, or i shake, or i just say the wrong thing! its so horrible, but are there any tips to calm the nerves, or just not be so shy, and hesitent?! thank you so much.

you have to believe in your self and your ability to present yourself in a manner that makes you likable. Trust me I'm going into my first year of high school next year and I'm really shy (even around my best friends). Don't let nerves get to you, you have enough to worry about anyway.


Hope i helped.

P.S. if you ever need anything just ask.

heres my deal... i like two people. chris and pete. i have known chris since third grade [now in 9] he has always liked me. my best friend sammy is also good friends with him. she is having alot of problems in her lifee right now, she is on the verge of killing herselff, almost. chris and pete are really good friends with one another, the other day we were playing truth or dare and i made out with chris, when pete was there. BUTT theres anothere boy in this too. his name is tommy he has liked me since sixth grade. chris likes me and sammy, i dont know what to do because if i keep making out with him as friends with benefits then i done know what it will turn into and sammy is a good friend to me but i feel guilty about doing this and not telling her. also chris keeps saying that pete likes me but i dont believe it that much, cause he doesnt show it. ps, i like people for there personality. and please dont say that chris is just trying use me becuase he would never do somthing like that. i know himm to well for him to just go somewhere and just make out with me the hole time. i need some advicee.

mabe you should come out with it (not that there is a secret to begin with) And just tell them what is actually happening. and if you actually like that guy you need to tell him. making out as friends is not a good idea unless you are playing a game.

hope I help

okay so i've been together with my boyfriend for a little over a year and i have a huge problem. i still feel awkward talking to his parents. now i am not an outgoing person to begin with. i feel bad because he is outgoing, he is always talking to my parents or my brother and i just can never think of what to say to them. he says that his parents like me they just don't like that i don't talk to them, it's nothing personal towards them i'm just not very good with talking to adults in general. i need help!! thank you.

well just think of them as your parents and this might help or you just need to be around them more. its a natural feeling. don't feel bad about it. really if you just don't think about who you are talking to and just focus on what you are saying you might be able to talk to them.

ok so I'm 13/f and I've been liking the same kid 4 two years straight. like I've liked about 2 other people at the same time as him but I've liked him the most. i still only like him and its summer. he hasn't liked me yet. but i need a way to make him notice me more when we get back to school. (oh yeah and hes in the same grade as me and has been in some of my classes)what are some things i could do?

please help =(

this is freaky, its the same situation i was in a week ago. well you should tell him. if he likes you he will accept. but don't start going on to him. you should start slow and just flirt with him.

hope i helped :)

The hottest guys I meet are too busy watching porn and girl on girl stuff(which is sick...okay...fine, guys making out can be hot but it's also very wrong!!!!) and shit like that and everything and it kinda makes me angry because like my friends(girls) don't go looking up pictures of naked guys or anything so like...I don't know if I can really trust guys a ton if they say that don't do that? GUYS...are any of you NOT like that? Answer truthfully!
And people have asked me to do some really wrong stuff on webcam too and I'm kinda concerned about that... >.>

ya im 14 and i hate guys that do that stuff. i don't look at porn cause its wrong. im a guy and my friends give me a hard time because i get uncomfortable when their girlfriends kiss.
im not gay or anything, i just dont like it

ok, on my moms outter thigh on the left side there is an indention. it started comming up about a month ago. it is about as big as the palm of your hand, and it it noticable. where the indention is, it doesnt hurt, but it hurts around the hip & butt area and makes her whole leg ache. she cant bend that leg as much as she can the other one. what could be the cause of this and what needs to be done?

could be a brown recluse bite. but even if its not it needs to be looked at

Kay I met this guy today. He's a year older than me. Well today after school we all decided to go to the elementry school thats next to our school. It was me, 3 of my friends, and him. I have seen him around school before, and he and defenatly seen me. Today, he kept sitting next to me when we were hanging out and he kept smiling. I really like him too, but since I JUST met him, would it be concidered "slutty" if I ask if he likes me after one day??

no its just a question

I have always my whole life been different from everybody I don’t know why, everything about me is wrong my parents and cousins constantly cut me down. Everyone at school think im a freak that will never be fixed I ignore them but I fight back sometimes. Then my best friend and I were in an on and off love. Being best friends then telling each other we loved each other then being zapped so many time over each other and asking out a few times over it then to denying each other in front of our grade a few times. Talking nonstop in a day to not a word in a day or days. I’ve never felt so much love the loves before are nothing compared to this I LOVE him he LOVES me. I think its love now but I’m so confused it was.... All the heartbreak all the people holding us back then now pushing us together and apart again?! Were total opposites in every single way and never been in anyway the same. I’ve spent most of my life with him. Our families were best friends always together. They moved away but still nothing else changed. Then our parents found out we loved each other then tried to keep us apart and never since has he been over or me over there or have we done anything with them. Since our parents are so loudmouth then they told people and NOW EVERYTHING IS WRONG. I do not in anyway get along with my family or relatives so I always went with him. Now my life has been hell or at least going straight down to hell in everyway. Then 2 people tried to get us together…his two other crushes. Pretty much interviewing him in front of everyone asking do you still love her asking why we wont go out everything stuff like that. I told her not to. Then I just left. It was on the 2nd to last day of school and last period. The day before we go on vacations for almost a month. He said I’m third in the people he liked. I don’t care but she told everything to everyone. He always cracks under pressure and is very shy around girls. Now when I sign on aim he signs off. It’s been over a month and we never said a word not even looked at each other not a bye or anything. I’ve seen him 5 times since now by setup. But there is nothing between us not even friends anymore. Idk what really happened. We’ve been friends and best friends our whole lives now absolutely nothing. I spent the night at my friends’ house and went swimming and her cousin stayed with us and he got to bring a friend he brought my best friend although I’m not sure about best friends now. And as I was right about to talk to him her cousin yelled for him then they skated away. Then we went swimming with a lot of people and he just called and left. Never seen him since. Idk what really happened between us there was no fight. Now were just ignoring each other. We never dated because we didn’t wana loose our friendship and now we lost both and everything. I lost my best friend and all the love I have, for life. Im suicidal my friends are what kept me alive over the years now my best friend is gone. I have nowhere to go no one to love no friends who truly understand me actually nobody who understands me I don’t get along with my family at all there only making it worse. What do I do what can I? I feel like shit I feel nothing now I feel like nothing. What can I do? Sorry I just cant take it.

hey, its ok these are just bad times. See I know how you feel, my best friend in the whole world died this year. I just rode it out and lived everyday like it was my last. Please don't commit suicide. Its a selfish way to die. If you need a friend Just e-mail me. Im only 14 so I am no expert but I want to help because over many years of my friends dying I have Learned to not take life for granted. Please I will be your best friend and I don't even know you.


Please Please Please don't kill yourself I don't think my soul can take it.

Long but please read:



My parents are getting a divorce shortly mainly because my dad is 38 wanting to be 20 again. I have a bestfriend that comes around alot and she thinks my dad is hot and he knows that. He says that she is very attractive and so on. He text her all the time. Me and my friend work together and my dad will go in and talk to her then leave without saying a word to me or he will go in when im not even working like he has for the last 2 weeks according to my friend.

The other night i was pretty drunk and my friend and i were talking to my dad. I laid down on the floor and dosed off and i hard noises coming from my friend ( like her and my dad messing around ) after my sister came in the room i got up and went to the bathroom and started crying. After 10 min my friend came to check on me and i asked her if she was messing around with my dad and she said "no, i would never do that ___ i would never do anything to ruin our friendship". And of course i believe her she my bestfriend.

Lately my dad is very attached to his cell phone every time it chimes i know its my friend.He sleeps with the phone right next to him most nights and if you touch his phone he flips out. Well tonight he left his phone on the table so i snooped and i looked thourgh his pictures and i found one of my friend naked (from the waist up)

IM so hurt by this i dont know if i trust her shes lying to me. We're supposed to be bestfriends. Shes tells me she annoyed by my dad but that pictures proves that thats a lie. I dont know what to do anymore. I dont want to tell her i was looking through my dads phone and found this. I'm Graduating tomorrow and shes going to be there we are supposed to move in tomorrow as in get an apartment.

Please help im falling apart over this
thanks

you should tell her confont your dad and then forgive them

im planning on getting a 6 flags season pass but I really dont know how it works. I thought that you only have to buy the pass for 65 $ or whatever & you can go the whole 2007 year. But a couple of days ago when i asked someone else they said that you buy the pass just to get through the line quicker[i doubt it].
I really dont know what to think & i dont understand,so i just wanted someone[who bought it before] to explain EVERYTHING to me.
[the six flags website isnt working]
well thank you in advanced =]

ya you go through the line faster and you get in all of 2007
