so i have and interview at mcdonalds this WED what kind of question will he/she ask and what answers should i say (link)
|
Questions can be like: what are your strengths and weaknesses? and those are the trick ones... you should answer, my biggest strength is being able to accept responsibility and follow-through. my biggest weakness is sometimes I take on too much, but I always get the job done well and I thrive on completing projects etc.
It's all a game and how you can turn it around. At the end, they usually ask if you have any questions and you should come up with a couple like: What would a typical day/shift be like? and When do you expect to be making your decision on this position?
Good LUCK!

The new guy I'm dating isn't a virgin. We were friends a long time before we started going out, and he'd always tell me about his sexual experiences. I want to save myself for marriage, but I don't care what others do. This isn't about that at all. It's just lately, all the things he's told me he's done with other girls has started rushing back to me and it bothers me. I guess it's some weird jealousy thing, I don't know exactly why I care. He's completely perfect in every way, but his past experience is really holding me back. I realize this is very irrational as most guys have some experience by now (We're both 17) but I can't let go of them. How do I let go of these thoughts? Has anyone had experience with this?
Thanks for your help. (link)

You're in a tough spot.... and it's hard to let go of the thought that there was someone(s) before you. But what counts is how he is with YOU in your current relationship, not anything before. Even though you don't have much in your past, you wouldn't want him to hold anything against you. It's hard for a girl to let go of the jealousy thoughts in our heads, but try and always treat him with care and respect and hopefully he will treat you the same way. best wishes

For some reason everytime my ex boyfriend is around I make sure I'm all over my current boyfriend. Why is this?? (link)
| |
We just can't help how we feel "inside" and part of you deep down wants him to know that you are doing just great and have moved on. But now it's time for you to just be doing great and moving on, without having to make someone else feel bad. It's hard, and extra hard being a female - we are brutal on ourselves. Good luck

Long story short a teacher who taught me last year (but i still have to see around)has never liked me and vice versa as she has a nasty habit of picking on students in a ridiculously childish and unprofessional way. Well I've always refused to be intimidated by her and although I've never been rude I've always stood my ground.
Now she knows I won't be intimidated she's taken to spreading false but relatiely harmless rumours to my teachers behind my back. And just today I found out she's been telling people I've changed my mind about a university place I've accepted which I certainly haven't. I have no idea where she gets these things from or if she just akes them up but I've had enough and really want to say something to her about this incident in particular (as obviously if it gets back to the university it will not look good).
Any suggestions as to what I should say that puts an end to it without being rude?
I'm leaving school in a few days if it helps.
Thanks for reading (link)

Talk to your counselor and lay it out. A teacher shouldn't be discussing your plans with anyone other than you. You could request a meeting with this teacher and the counselor, that way you can nicely stand your ground - and have a witness to avoid this going any further. sorry that a person in that position is being such a downer in your life.

i am 16 and my boyfriend has been talking about getting married he said he was going to ask me to marry him soon...how do you guys feel about teenage marriage? and why do you feel this way? i need ohter teens advice! thanks xox (link)
|
Teenage marriage can be wonderful.... spending your whole life (like our grandparents) together, if you are in a very healthy, strong, relationship and are willing to work at it no matter what it takes.
But that was a far different day and age, where a lot of people never even ventured out of their home state. It CAN work, but takes 5 times as much effort and you don't ever want to be disappointed that you didn't go places or do things because you were already tied down.
If it's really meant to be, than the marriage part can wait, until you've both had the chance to figure out what you want out of life individually and accomplish some things - just for you. In the meantime, don't rush into being married, just enjoy the fact that you both love each other that much and share lots of good times together!
Best wishes

this always happens to me i start liking someone and then when they start liking me i stop liking them. guys ask me out everyonce in a while but i akways turn them down even if i like them , i have had 3 boyfriends bf not serious tho. and always end up dumping them, so for the past month i have been liking this guy chris, hes really funny and nice. but... he does drugs. lots. and hes not a virgin. so hes starting to like me and is like all over me, but now i have stopped liking him, i am practically giving false hope, if he asks me out and i say no. he probably end up hating. but i would like to be friend, i just dont kno if tahts even possble what should i do to get him to stop flirting with me so much so we can just be friends:/ (link)
| |
It's hard to understand, but sometimes the chase is a lot more fun than the catch. It's better to 'play the field' and meet lots of different types of people than spend lots of time going steady and missing out on fun dates and times. With the latest guy Chris, you can always say you like him, but can't date him because of the drugs etc., that way you're not blaming it necessarily on him, but his behaviors. Good luck!

i have this freind n well shes not pretty i no that mean but its true but anyways, this guy on myspace is like u r gorgeous you r hot n all this stuff n its a lie its this kid she met @ my freinds party n she doesnteven no him! she hasnt seen him since then n i dont want her to get hurt hes prob. just you no one of those dumb assses whos retarded. wat should i do? talk to her ab it? i juss dont want her 2 get hurt. (link)

If you know that that are just messing with her, then tell her that they are all jerks and don't even know who they're talking to on IM. you don't want to hurt her feelings, but it's gonna hurt worse if she believes these guys and they are gonna be mean.

my boyfriend james raped me a month ago and I think I may be pregnant and my mom will kick me out even if I was raped she's the type of person who thinks I could have done something about it I told my mom he raped me and she asked me how I could be so stupid to let something like that happen what should I do,Iam only 17 and my boyfriend is 19. (link)
| |
You need to go to a free family planning clinic and talk to a counselor. Not only for counseling the rape and pregnancy - but for the fact that he raped you and you're still calling him your boyfriend??? You've got to get away from him - forever - and ever and ever! There is no relationship there - he raped you. A good counselor will help you through the other issue and work on your own level of self-esteem, so that you won't be with a person that would ever treat you that way.

There is this girl in my town who whenever I run into I feel just utter contempt for. The problem is I'm not even really sure why because she's become such a loser.
Well first of all she has a bad reputation in town. She used to be a prostitute and got pregnant two years ago. No one knew who the father was and after she had the baby social services took it away. She also was a drug dealer and got banned from the volunteer centre I used to work at. I think the main thing that upset me was that she dated my first serious bf after we broke up. She would spread rumours about me and would flaunt their relationship in front of me. She also used to be really skinny when I was overweight.
Well since she had the baby she's gained atleast 50 pounds. She's also unemployed and the last time I saw her she was dancing at the bar with her big gut sticking out and being a complete slut.
Everyone (my friends) said she was gross. I have so much more going for me than her; I'm employed and have my act together and I don't sleep around and I'm a LOT prettier than her because I've lost a lot of weight.
So my question is why does it still upset me when I see her? Because she's turned into such a loser? Can anyone give me some advice? (link)

It's part of the curse of being a female! while it's wonderful that we are deeper more sensitve of the race, sometimes it's SO difficult! Even though you know it's not worth it (in your mind) you still can't help how you feel inside. And if the thought of her still bugs you - that's ok and normal. Sometimes we're not happy unless we have something to be grouchy about and obviously she hurt your feelings badly, even if she is a loser. Be annoyed and dislike her, but don't sink to her level ever and actually get revenge or do something mean. You are better than her and that's why she was so nasty to you. My sweet bf has an ex-gf that i met(saw) twice and even though she now lives in another country - the thought of her (seriously fat and TACKY) bugs the hell out of me. Avoid the chick and be a bigger better person!

This great guy & I have been dating for a few months now. He's popular and he's been with a few girls from our school. He has told me that 2 of his exes have mentioned me in a negative way. I've started to notice a few girls giving my dirty looks around school, which has never happened before. He says these girls are jealous but I'm getting upset by it. I'm starting to question if this potential relationship is worth it, even though he really makes me happy. Should I just forget about the girls or forget him? (link)
| |
Ex-gf's can be so mean! They are only targeting you because they must still like him and haven't moved on to their next bf. Tell him that it does bother you, but you hope that he will always come to you and ask if something is said about you, instead of believing the old gfs.

just to warn you, this COULD be long... im really sorry but i DO need help so please keep reading and help me if you can.
i just got back from a cruise where i met a FANTASTIC boy. ...well thats what i thot. his name was matt. we had a mutual friend on the cruise named tyler that was closer friends with him but me and him were friends also.. well me and matt were like always together and we hooked up a few times on the cruise too.
when i got home, me and matt still talked on the phone and stuff but we live like 2 hours from eachother so we dont see eachother. well matt actually asked me to his prom and i told him i would ask my parents. so a couple days later i was talking to tyler online and i told tyler that matt asked me to his prom. tyler acted REALLY surprised so i asked him wutsup. and tyler said that matt didnt really like me.. he actually had a GIRLFRIEND while he was on the cruise.. and that matt just kinda considered me a bootycall. well, this is what tyler said. so i was obviously PISSED so i talked to matt about it, and he denied the whole thing telling me how great i am and how much he likes me.
so i told matt that i believe him, but its still in the back of my mind that tyler was telling the truth, just because i dunno why he would lie about something like that. and now im just really confused.. i dunno what to believe. any opinions? please help. (link)
| |
Sounds more like Tyler is jealous and doesn't want you to go with Matt. Obviously if Matt had a gf he wouldn't invite you to his prom - so he must be telling the truth. Go and have a great time!

OMG!! I LIKED THIS GUY FOR THE LONGEST TIME. I DONT THINK HE KNOWS IT. WELL TODAY I CAME HOME FROM WORK AND GOT ONLINE. MY BEST FRIEND IMED ME AND SAID "PLEASE DONT GET MAD AT ME." i said i wouldnt and asked her what she needed to tell me. she sent me a conversation between her and the guy i like (bobby). she asked him who he liked and his exact words were "dont think im weird but i kinda sort of like you" OMG!!! I SERIOUSLY CRYED MY EYES OUT. my best friend has a boyfriend that i know she wouldnt leave but its just that i really really like bobby and it just sucks!!! what can i do??!?!?!?!?
PLEASE I WILL RATE 5'S!!! (link)
| |
Your best friend is kinda mean! She never should have given you the actual conversation, she never had to tell you that. Hopefully she made sure that bobby knows she has a bf and no interest in him and steered him in your direction. You don't need friends like her.... there will be more times when she says don't be made at me, but... and tell you some other crappy thing she's done to you.

My sister hopes to get married in august and i've been nominated as master of ceremonies. I have accepted. However, i've never been an mc before so i want to be good and not be an embarrasment that night. Can someone help me on this. What does a master of ceremonies all do? what are some good ways to keep the audience entertained? Any help in aiding me to prepare myself for this will be much appreciated. THX (link)

Usually a dj handles those things, but it is nicer if you do it.
Set up a schedule...for instance
6pm - introduction of the wedding party
630pm - dinner - say a short prayer
7pm - announce they are cutting the cake so people can watch
there'll be music playing? and you'll help with the flow of events so that they get everything in that they want to.
keep the announcements, short/sweet and appropriate - and everything you say should reflect happiness at celebrating their day together etc. Hope it goes well for you!

Check out this movie - The Tao of Steve. It's a comedy but the message is true!
Be excellent
Be desireless
Be gone....
We all want the bad boys or the ones we have to chase. Hang out with them for say 45 minutes, be charming and funny, but don't really direct anything straight to her. Then say, oh gotta go...and take off. Let her think that you have so many important things to do that when you do hang out for a few minutes it is really appreciated.
again... check out the movie.

i am planning to get a car soon. most likely used because it will be my first car and i want one that doesnt use a lot of gas any advice?? gas in california is 3.08 right now (link)
| |
I had a 93 Honda Civic del Sol (the little 2-seater with top that comes off). They go like hell, great on gas, extremely reliable, and pretty safe too. I drove it for 10 years, up to 150,000 miles and only had one tune-up. Just tires and oil changes and once I had to have the A/C fixed because I live in FL.

okay - so i have a gyncologist appt. in a month, and i am sooooo nervous. i don't know what to expect! i'm going to the same one as my mom, so i'm guessing he's a pretty normal guy. my mom asked me if i wanted a girl instead, but i really didn't think it would matter (and it doesn't, it's still as nervewrecking to me). what should i do? like .. before i go? do i need to like .. shave? lol i don't know what to expect either - like my mom told me he does a breast exam and that i have to lay down and he has to stick a q-tip like thing in to check for cancers and stuff. but what does it feel like .. or like .. what else should i expect?!
help! ♥ (link)

ok... it's not as bad as you think. Just be sure you are clean/showered. If it is a male doctor, they will have a female nurse in the room too. This sounds wierd but you'll lay on a table with the paper gown over you and then they'll uncover one breast at a time and have you put that arm up behind your head, then they rub in little circles going outward from the nipple. Sometimes that tickles. then they'll have you put your feet in the stirrups and slide down till your knees are bent and apart and your rear is right on the edge of the table. Time to get over the modesty and just know that every female on the planet goes through this. They usually will tell you every step of the way, like when they are going to touch you and that it may be a little uncomfortable. The q-tip is a long cotton swab and they rub the inside of the uterus for just a few seconds to get some cells and then put it on a slide. When they do that (pap smear) it sometimes feels uncomfortable, like a cramp for just a few seconds. then they have you sit up, ask any questions, etc., and they leave you alone to get dressed. It's usually over in less than 10-15 minutes. Hope this helps you be not so nervous.

I have been going out with this guy for almost a year. And it is pretty serious. I dont get to see him much so it makes it hard for me to say im "with someone" I have cheated on him a lot in the past couple months. I have only told him once and that was almost a year ago. I love him to death and I dont want to hurt him. He is the kinda guy that you wanna be with. If anybody has any advice on how not to cheat on someone. or to tell him please let me know. thanks
dude. (link)
| |
If you truly care, love, and respect someone then cheating would never ever be a consideration. If that's what you have to do, then set this guy free, stop hurting him and be on your merry way to dating and finding someone you would never cheat on.

there is this boy that i like...and he likes me...but he isnt looking for a girlfriend right now...he just wants me and him to be "friends with benifits"......what does that mean?...... but it seems like i want more than that....when we are alone he acts like we are boyfriend and girlfriend...but we arent......but when we are at school he doesnt really talk to me that much anymore.......and i want him to........he doesnt give me little sweet kisses, or hugs, or anything like that... someone told me that he is emaressed to be around me and that he doesnt want others to know......but he doesnt seem like that kind of guy...and others are saying that he just wants sex out of me (RUMERS)...i guess i just want to be more than just friends but i dont know how to tell him......because he isnt looking for a girlfriend right know.............
thanks for your helping hands!!!!!!!
baby (link)

He's a jerk. Friends with benefits only means that he wants to have sex with you. And he's already shown you that he doesn't really want to be 'friends'. Real friends would never do that to you.
