have your mom talk to her parents. or when she drops you off at your friend's house, have your mom talk to their parents for a while to see if they are good people or whatever. good luck [:

Ok well my lips are soooo chapped and it bugs me more than being on my period. Don't ask. Anyone know how to get them to be not chapped fast??? thanks!

there's this lip gloss from bath & body works that is like chapstick but it works reeaallyy good & starts working really fast. it's $7.50 though. if your willing to spend that much on lip gloss it's worth it. i cant go a day without that stuff. if you have chapped lips, put in on, it gets all tingly, and it feels cool. it makes your lips like 100% not chapped anymore. heres the link to it. i think they only sell it in the winter but you might still be able to get it. its a pretty decent size.

on that newest episode of the hills, they say Jen and Brody hooked up. does that mean make out or have sex in their case?

i thought it meant they had sex at first. but then i thought, they say "hooked up" alot on this show & it can't mean sex. so i'm thinking they just made out. heidi also did tell lauren they made out. hope i helped. [:

I was wondering how long it would take for a sprained wrist to heal. The dr. said it was a tendent [sp?] sprain? It's nothing major. I can still move it a little but it hurts.

But anywhos, usually how long does it take to heal? I hurt it on Thursday and it still hurts a lot

i sprained my wrist last year. it's gonna hurt for a while, mine did. but mine was like a really bad sprain. it took about a week for the really bad pain to go away. but since yours isn't as bad it should feel better in a few days. it will hurt when you move it for a while so try not to. it was like 2 or 3 weeks until i could take the brace thing off & actually start to move it again. it hurt a little but not too bad. after that, it was about 2 or 3 more weeks until it was back to normal. since yours isn't a bad sprain, it should only be about 2 or 3 weeks until it's back to normal. i would suggest advil or tylenol for the pain for now. wait a week or two & see how it feels when you move it. don't rush into it though or you'll just hurt it more. move it slowly & if it hurts, stop. anyway i hope you feel better!! [:

also,
after it's all better, don't start doing flips & cartwheels or whatever for a while. you don't want to re-sprain it.

Alright, here is my problem, i am a 'tomboy' and i wanted to change my clothing style. I think that i would have some potential to actually look like a pretty 'preppy chick', but thats just my opinion, the thing is, i never put any time into it, and i was thinkin, maybe if i tried, i could see how it goes.

I have an issue though, i dont know what types of clothes to get, my friend suggested Hollister and i was going to take that into consideration. I just wanted to know, types of shirts, (i know the double layer is quite popular at my school), pants, skirts, shoes, everything! So, if you have any suggestions about ANYTHING being more of a girly girl without changing my personality and just my style of clothing, that would be great =). Thanks.

i agree with your friend. hollister is very popular with preppy girls. also aeropostale, american eagle, & abercrombie. try to wear more skirts & flip flops when it gets warmer out. if you don't already have one, get a hair straightener. make sure it's ceramic though. as for the clothes, just bring a "preppy" friend along when you go shopping who shops at those stores. he or she can help you pick out some cute stuff. get some stuff you like too. you're really pretty so changing into a preppy girl shouldn't be too hard for you. hope i helped & good luck to you.

i'm like, totally inlove with my best guy friend. i asked him out sometime in november but he turned me down. he said that our friendship was more important at our age and stuff. and i see where he's coming from. but since then, we've started growing apart. we haven't had a conversation an hour long, which was like, the minimum amount of time we used to talk before i asked him out. we say hey to each other most of the time we see each other at school, and after school, i hang out with him and his friends until my ride comes. but we never talk one-on-one anymore. not even in the computer. so i've been thinking about messaging him on myspace. i've been thinking about doing this for weeks now, but i just can't seem to do it. it seems like i'm stalking him because ever since i asked him out, i send him messages every now and then, trying to make conversation with him. if i keep doing that, wouldn't it seem like i'm desperate and i'm stalking him? what should i do? should i message him or not? i have an idea in my head about what imma say. something like, "hey. you're proly getting annoyed by how many times i try to make a conversation with you, which never lasts long. i just wanna try one more time, because i really feel like we've been growing apart lately. i really miss those old days when we talked for hours and hours, because now we can't even talk for 5 minutes without silences in between. it really sucks. so what do you say? are you up for trying one more time?"



what do you think?? i really need some perspective on this.

that sounds like a good idea to me. let him know how you're feeling & maybe he will understand. if things don't go back to the way they used to be, then maybe he isn't such a good friend. my mom always tells me that friendships will change. good luck to you!!

I get really tired and sick of people going "OMG I LOVE THAT BAND" -- like bands that has existed for a while and had just not become recognized and popular like P!ATD and MCR and Flyleaf and etc. It gets really annoying because I've known the bands for a long time and they assume that I just another one going crazy for that band and later ditching it for another newly discovered band. How do I disconect myself from this and make it known to people that I've known them for a long time before they evern appeared on MTV or even came on the radio?

Also, any bands out there that aren't discovered yet? Thanks. Most of the bands that I knew are not on MTV...

14/f

Everyone tells me this kid likes me, but when it comes to seeing if people like me or not, I can never ever tell!

Here are some signs --
*He calls me twice a day.
*He talks about how he misses what we had.
*He always says we should hang out
*Hes called me pretty 3 times, in the past like.. maybe week tops?
*He asked if I'd ever makeout with him... lol?
*He always tries to help me with things.
*He drops like everything, just to talk to me on the phone type thing..

& alot of other stuff.. I just can't seem to think of it right now. =/ but, trust me theres alot more.. thats just super recent. & some of the other things, I don't know how to put it.

Anyways, what do you think? Does he just want to be my friend? or more...

By the way.. I won't rate you low, if you think he doesn't like me or something.. I want you to be completely honest.


OH..& sorry if we're not allowed to say we rate at all? I thought it was just as long as we don't say we rate high...

kthanks in advance.

wow this is like exactly what this boy does that likes me alot. so i'm going to say he deffinitley likes you. [:

What's a GOOD and EASY way to make a lot of money, fast? [BESIDES babysitting & chores.]

Any help is very much appreciated,
Mucho thanks in advance =)

well that depends on your defintion of chores. if you're old enough, get a job. if you're like 12-15 then maybe you could like.. idk.. walk dogs or something. babysitting & chores really are the only things to do if you can't get a good job. good luck to you!!

I stumbled across this site by accident. I seriously doubt many of you have the qualifications to give real people proper advice. After reading some of your responses to people's inquiries i was quite astonished as to how teenagers find they are able to give quality advice and information to real people in need with such little life experience. If you ask me you are not in a place to give your "personal opinion" when people truly believe you are giving them the right answer simply because you claim "people think i give really good advice". (eg. i am still at a loss as to how a 17 year old girl thinks she can give advice to someone regarding conceiving a child) I know you try to come across as a "godsend" to poeple who are in some sort of personal crisis and need a fast easy answer but the truth is, in the cases where it really counts, there rarely is one; at least not from you.

well if you dont like the advice given, dont take it. who said you had to? & just so you know, teenagers can give really good advice to other teenagers. theres alot of them on here who can get really good advice from people who have been through the same stuff.

Dear Redhead,
I have a love life problem. I have a girlfriend that I have been going out with for 3 years. My best friend that i like has just told me that she has mixed feeling for me. I don't know what I should do.


Sincerely,
Confused

well you have to make a choice. who do you truly like more? if she says she has mixed feelings, then she wont be able to commit to the relationship. she will be up & down liking you & then not liking you. but maybe if you two were to go out she would stick to liking you. this is a really hard situation & you just have to think about who you truly want to be with more. & think about which would make a better gf. hope i helped & good luck to you.
