Ok I think I'm in love with my best friend. He moved here about two years ago and since we met we have been hanging out with each other like everyday. At first I didn’t like him like him. We just became friends because I don’t know I guess we clicked. But I didn’t notice how much we flirt until my friend pointed it out to me. I really want to make our relationship more, but I don’t want to ruin this relationship we have more? What should I tell him I like him or just keep it on the down low? (link)
well... I think that you should tell your friend how you really feel about him.. But also tell him that you dont want to ruin the friendship that you have now with him. And you definetly dont want to make things weird between you two now that you've told him that you like him more than just a friend now. See how he feels about you... and see what he wants to do. You may be surprised and he may also have the same feelings for you, but him also didnt know how to bring it up.. or even ruin the relationship. Even if he doesnt want it to be more. I'd be glad to have him as a friend then not having him in your life at all.. I hope this makes sense....

Hope This Helps... Good Luck..

hello my name is haley. I am 13 and i only weigh 70 pounds. Am i too skinny? I love to eat and really i am quite a PIG!! i win eating contests too. people at my school call me ANOREXIC! which really is no joke! its not funny and it really makes me mad. because my best friend died of anorexia. please help me! am i too skinny?

- please dont delte this i write this with my heart and soul- (link)
I wont delete anyones questions.. you are kind of skinny for being 13.. how tall are you... usually it depends on how tall you are... Then you can get a estimate of how much your suppose to weigh. I'm not a doctor or anything. But.. I think that you should go see a doctor.. I know that you eat and eat and eat.. I use to be the same way.. Now. I just think im fat.. and In reality I'm not. But why I'm telling you to see a doctor or even a nutritionist... Is to... They can help you to get a regular food balance.. that way. you know whats good for you to eat.. and whats not soo good.. and this will also help so that you start to gain weight... But not alot of weight to were you are over weight... I hope this makes sense to you.. and that you understand what I'm trying to tell you... Need Anything Else... Just Drop Another One In My Inbox.. I'm here to help you whenever you need it..

Good Luck..

ok me and my boyfriend have been going out for a month and 1 week he wants to have sex im 14 hes 15 have we been going out long enough (link)
NO! You have not been going out long enough! You are 14 years old! You should be thinking about other things besides having sex.. Do you know what kind of diseases are out there now days that you can catch that you cant get rid of? I know you never said anything about wanting to do it.. but Im gonna tell you... Dont have sex with him if your not ready! or at all.. you are tooo young in my opinion.. Do you want to end up being 15 yrs old and having a baby!? Protection and birth control pills don't always protect you from pregnancy.. and surely not from STD's Or HIV.. So think hard about what you want to do in this situtation.... If I were you... I wouldnt... Your just too young..

I have a big problem with thinking i am FAT! I'm 5'5 and i weigh 119.5! So I dont eat alot. My boyfriend worries about me an tells me if i dont go to start eating right then he was gonna tell someone. I went to the doctor to get my physical for cross country an he pushed on my tummy an asked me if i ever ate an i said sometimes an he said do you have an appitite an im like not really an he said that he could tell that i hardley ever ate by pressing on my stomach! I wanna eat but i get too full soo easy! what should i do? (link)
I'm the same way.. I'm like 5'6 or 5'7 and weigh 120... So I know exactly how you feel and I know what your boyfriend is going through because I put my boyfriend through the same stuff.. I was told that when you do become hungry. Dont eat soo much to make your self full that quickly. Eat little portions at a time. Exercisin will also help with you thinkin your fat... I have to exercise in order to know that I'm not fat. But if this stuff doesnt help you can see a doctor and they can give you some things to do to help you realize that being 119lbs isnt fat at all.. You should be very lucky that you arent heavier then that like some girls are.

so i've been tanning in a lay down bed for about 2 years now, and i always stop during the summer.. and now it is time to start up again. my sister and i were talking and she said i should go to a stand up bed. So my question is: what one is better, a lay down or stand up? i'll rate (link)
Ive been tanning for awhile now... and Ive been doing the lay down beds.... then i was talking to one of the girls that runs the tanning bed I go to.. and she said the best thing to do... is to switch between the lay down beds and the stand up beds...so thats what I would do....

Hope This Helps....

Good Luck

I got Linseed Oil on one of my favorite shirts. The shirt is 95% cotton, 5% spandex. How can I get it out? Are there any stain removers that would help? (link)
Shout works really well on stains... Try that...

Hope This Helps.... Good Luck


Hey (link)
Depends on how old you are.... But usually getting a physical you dont get any shots or blood taking... so calm down... you will be fine..


I'm supposed to be going to the gyn (women's doctor) in a few months, and I was wondering, when they stick their fingers inside you to examine you, does that hurt badly, or what? Do they loosen you up or what..?

Please answer! (link)
No it doesnt hurt... It puts a little pressure on your bladder because they are pushing on your cervix to make sure that everything is ok... Don't stress over it.. It is nothing.. I recently went for the same thing.

is it absolutely 100% neccessary for a woman to go to a gynocologist at some point in her life? and what do they do, exactly?
(link)
Yes it is absoulutely 100% neccessary to go... Usually the age is 18 to start going.. but once you become sexually active you should go. I just recently went.. and what they do is check for a cancer that can come from being sexually active.. But. if you go when you become sexually actice to get this checkup they can detect this cancer and it is very cureable because its just a virus you and your partner pass back and forth. This is what my doctor told me. They just check for that cancer and a couple stds... It's painless.... It's nothing to worry about... I was very nervous my first time going too... But after going through it... It was nothing... Just the fact a girl doctor was looking down there was a little weird...

i had unprotected sex about 3 days ago. he didn't cum inside me, so i know i'm not pregnant. but could i still have gotten any stds, even though there haven't been any signs so far? (link)
Yes.... You could still have an std even though he didnt cum inside of you... Guys precum.... and when they stick it in thats how you can get the STD... But the best way to make sure you or him dont have anything is to go to the doctors and get some tests done... and for the pregnancy thing... I dont think that you can be pregnant.... But.. for now on... Use Protection! That is the safest way!!!

Good Luck... Hope This Helps...

what is the best way to clean a toilet bowl? (link)
When my mom cleans the toilet bowl she puts that blue powder in it.... called...Umm.... Shit.. I dunno.... lol... lets it set for about 5 minutes... Then she uses the toilet brush and cleans it out.... Then the toilet is all nice and white again.... Hope This Helps...

Good Luck..

My dad cheated on my mom with her best friend..my paretns got divorced and my dad got marries to my moms best friend..i hate her for doind that...when i want to go places with my dad and my brother she always comes along..i know they are married but how do i tell her i want to be with my dad and brother..or how do i tell my dad?
*helpless* (link)
You just need to tell your dad that you arent very fond of your "stepmom" for what she did to your mom... You just need to be honest with your feelings... Just tell her that you want to spend time with your dad and your brother without her....

Hope This Helps... Good Luck..


i dont really kno if i hav black heads or not bc i dont know what they are...im not sure what they look like...just black?? idk pleass tell.. (link)
Yes.. Blackheads are very small... almost like a pimple... but instead of white stuff... its black.. and they dont get as big as pimples... But.. usually you find them along your lips.... There is a face wash you can get right at walmart... its called Elimanting BlackHeads or something like that.. It works good....

Good Luck..

Ok well im a 17/f and me and my boyfriend have sexand everything but like 4 months ago his condom broke and we didnt know it and now im pregnant. Well i want to keep the baby and my parents are all for me and any choice i make about the baby. Well my boyfriend and me are decieding if we should keep the baby and he wants to help raise the child if we decide to keep it. well i dont know if i should keep the baby. you see i will be able too because i act very mature for my age, i already moved out of my house when i was 16 because of family issues and i already have 1 child( i was raped when i 14 and i didnt give her up for adoption) what should i do should i keep the baby or give it up? (link)
Wow.... Your a really young mom.... I'm also a mom.. but I had Kadence when I was 16... But... For your question... Yes you should keep this baby also... you guys choose to have sex.... granted you did wear a condom.. but.... breaking a condom is a issue you have to deal with if your going to have sex... but.... You guys had sex.. made a baby.... and you should keep the baby... How can you not keep something that is growing inside of you.... Having some of you... and some of your boyfriend coming together to make a beautiful little baby.... That feeling is the best feeling in the world.. and by the sounds of it... You seem to be very mature.... Raising a baby on your own... Now You'll have 2.... Things may be a little harder.. But you've proven to be a strong person.. and you can raise another child...

I hope this helps... Good Luck

ok well i'm 13 and my boyfriend wants to have sex and i really dont think i'm ready for it.how do i tell him wiht out him thinking i dont like him anymore (link)
How long have you been going on? How old is he? But first off... Your only 13... your not even ready to have sex yet... your not even fully developed yet... but.. for your question... If the guy really likes you... Then he will understand... You just need to tell him that you arent ready to have sex yet.... You arent comfortable with it... You'll know when the right time comes... But for now.. Please DONT DONT DONT have sex until your ready.. Because... There are many factors to having sex... not only a good time.. Pregnancy... Diseases... Which there are alot of those now a days... So just tell him that your not ready yet... That its nothing to do with him... That you still like him.. and when you feel the time is right.. You'll let him know...

Hope This Helps.. Good Luck Sweetie..

Male 16
This is a complicated situation heres the story.
My friend started going out with a girl who hooked me up with one of her friends its been about 3 months and then my gf dumped me but thats not the problem the problem is me and my friends girl have become good friends but now shes starting to really like me and i cant go out with my friends ex unless it was alright with him (if she dumped him for me) and i dont wanna lose a friend so i need to know if theres is anyone to become just friends with my mates girl without hurting her feelings and without ruining hers and my m8s relationship
Any Suggestions? im stuck (link)
well... Let's see... I think I've been in this situation before. but... truthfully... you need to be completely honest with her... You need to tell her exactly how you feel... Basically tell her what you just wrote here... Honesty is the first thing which should come before anything... So basically what Im telling you to tell her... Is that... You'd rather just stay friends with her... That you believe maybe in the long run... going out... might ruin your guys friendship... and that you dont want to lose your friendship with your guy friend... and that you wouldnt date one of your good friends girlfriends.... Alot of people are like that.... Truthfully... It's a good way to be... =)

Hope This Helps :/ Good Luck

(link)
Sweetie... 14 yrs old.. is to young to be having sex.... but... for you question... DONT DONT DONT have sex until your ready to have sex... When the right time comes around you'll know its the right time... and 3 months... you shouldnt even be having sex at 3 monthe into a relationship.... you need to wait away... see how things go with you 2 before you go having sex...

hope this helps... good luck

is there anyway i can gain a little more wieght?? i dont wanna be over weight i'm just kinda sick of people commenting my on how skinny i am. i just wanna to be "average" (link)
I'm the same way.. people always comment to me that im very skinny.. or that i'm anerioic thats totally spelled wrong :( anyway... The only thing you came do is eat more stuff that is like higher in calories.... but dont eat like lots of junk food... stay with healthy foods too....

Good Luck... Hope This Helps..

How much do you weigh if you dont mind my asking.. and your height...

**jackie**


OK so i like this guy..hes 16-17 and I'm 13. Is that a big difference?? He has a car and everything..do guys like not like younger girls? I like him SOOO much!! He's like perfect!! What do I do?? Thanks!! (link)
Your very very young.... compared to him I mean anyway... Alot of guys date younger girls... just 16 and 13 is a big difference.. I think that you should look else were... maybe closer to your age. I know its hard to stop liking someone when youve learned to like them but I dont think that anything will go on with you and this guy... I'm sorry to tell you that. =(

**Jackie**


hey~
i likethis guy but i havent gotten a chance to talk to him sence school let out, and hes really sweet and i know he likes me because he asked me out but i was with someone at the time. well now i tryed calling him but i didnt get throught. and i really dont know what to do :-( HELP!!!! (link)
Well... Schools been out for awhile... and maybe now he has a girlfriend or what not.. but.. here's what you need to do... You need to keep trying to get ahold of him until you reach him... then if you reach him... Get a conversation going. Dont just come out with telling him your single and want to get with him.. after you've talked for a few... See if he has a girlfriend.. and if not.. thats when you tell hi mthat you really like him.. and that your single now.. and would like to see if things would work out with you two. if not... then so be it.. there are plenty of guys out there looking for a girl....

Good Luck! Hope This Helps..
