Q: I've had this firned. She's really sweet, and never did anything to hurt anyone. We went everywhere together, and told eachother everything. She's made new frinds now and doesnt pay attention to me that much. We have the same lunch period and she wont even sit with me!!! She's also changed a lot (but i still love her) I miss her so much. How can we be BFF again???

Just call her or IM her and ask her over sometime or to a movie, start the relationship from there.

Q: my bf never talks 2 me at skool...i am his 1st gf ever...and he gets REALLY nervous around me!..wut do i do???...i like him a lot ...but he need s 2 talk 2 me 2!

Just hang on his arms a little and just be cheery around him, ask him lots of questions and tell him about your day and what your plans are.

Q: 13/m
I am going to a school dance on thursday (tomorrow). I don't know what to wear, however. It's a pretty casual thing. I also have no clue how to dance...some one please help! i rate high.

Jeans and a nice t-shirt, shoes you can dance in (not heavy ones). Don't worry about looking stupid when you dance, girls like seeing guys attempt to dance, if anythign slow dancing is probably easier than solo dancing.

Q: I have been going out with my boyfriend for a long time now. I love him so much and he asked me to marry him. I told him yes of course because I have never felt this way about anyone and he is flawless. But the thing is, I am only 16 years old. And latley, aka as of two days ago, I have been having doubts and it doesnt feel the same. Nothing happened between us, it just feels different. I want to love this guy again, because the love I had for him was perfect. I dont want to lose him for feeling this. What can I do to 'rekindle' the flame again?

Just try doing things that you don't usually do, or that you used to do when you first started going out. Try not to do the same old things, because then you take the old things or possible different things for granted. Try hanging out at a different place or just doing different things together.

Q: Hey I was just wondering, because I have a Samsung Digimax 130 camera, and it was on the top shelf of my desk and fellow like 5 inches down to the next, and now it won't work! Yikes! My dad is gonna kill me =( It won't turn on or anything. Shoot I'm dead. Please help. I will leave you good feedback and rate you well. =) Thanks in advance a zillion! =/

Try to see if the back is loose or batteries or something like that. If not, just tell him your big butt bumped it and you tried to save it but it was just too late.

Q: I havn't worn my retainer for a LONG TIME, about 2 years, and my bottom teeth have moved, just the 4 in the frontish, and well, i was wondering, if i started using my retainer now...and delt with the pain, would my teeth move back into place??

you more likely to break your retainer, but yse it will move your teeth just not into their exact spots

Q: my girlfriend is hard to make convesation with and same here help please

well then just try asking her questions until u hit something shes interested in and u know something about and go off of that

Q: my sis' sweet 16 is coming up and my mom and i wanted to surprise her with a few things. im gonna make a powerpoint about her thru the years but i need to find a song about friends. i cant find any that really "work". me and my sis always fight but i wanna do sumthing nice cuz its a special occasion. ne1 no of any songs about friends?

i say use the song from the tv show friends, its fun kinda crazy and doesn't relate to anything!

Q: Is there anyway to get bigger boobs besides breast implants? I'm 14, and have no boobs what-so-ever. Please don't tell me to wait. Im desperate here.

If you have some money go shop at victoria's secret. They have some of the cutest bra's that will make you look bigger but still look natural. There are some pills I've heard of that you can take but you can't get them until your 18.

Q: is it true that you cant use tampons until you had your period for a year?

Thats just a myth!! The only reason they recommend that is because there are alot of precautions that go along with using them. If you are aware of them and responsible go for it. Just read the directions and ask some friends around you for a little extra if your still scared.

Q: my boyfriend has REALLY bad breath. hes such a clean guy but he like breathes with his mouth open and its digusting. even when he chews gum i still smell it. and when were cuddling i just about die. and when he wants to kiss me it smells like dog poo and makes me smell..i cant tell him that will be totally mean...what can i do?

Just keep strong mints with you in his purse and keep feeding them to him. Let him know how you feel so that he can do something about it for you. Don't go unhappy like that it could turn you off from him.

Q: Hi, Advicenators. Normally I make up my own mind, but I need a little help. If you're going to be sarcastic or rude, don't bother.
Gender: female
Grade: Eighth
I have a problem with my Sunday School teacher. You see, I honestly believe that I have more Biblical knowledge than her. I know that sounds conceited.. but it just seems like it! Yesterday (Easter Sunday) our "lesson" was on miracles. This is what the conversation was like:
Teacher:Who can preform miracles?
Teacher:Only Jesus can preform miracles! No one else can!
Me:*raises hand*
Teacher:yes?
Me:But Jesus isn't the only one who can preform miracles.. Paul, Elija, Elisha, the Devil, the Twelve Disciples.. they all preformed miracles..
Teacher:No, no, no. That's not what I said..
Me:You said "Only Jesus can preform miracles".
Teacher:Anyway, girls, as you see.. blah, blah, blah.
At this time, I'm feeling pretty screwed over since she just blew me off. All of that conversation is an exact quote. This was the third time that I was able to correct her (and the third time I got blown off) yesterday alone! It happens every Sunday.. she doesn't know the lesson, she doesn't know what she's talking about.. It makes me mad!
I know that I am much, much more mature Spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and in my knowledge of the Bible and Christ.. (not trying to sound conceited..) but the lessons are never fufilling! I could gather more from my eight-year old sister's Sunday School lesson. Get this: I was the only girl in my class of seventh and eighth grade girls that knew what the Rapture was! Oh my gosh! How dumb?!
So, I was considering talking to my youth pastor about this. I'm naturally shy, and I don't like to put myself in that position.. but this is so annoying.. and a waste of my Sunday morning! So.. do you think I should speak to my youth pastor about this?
PS - I don't really get along with my teacher, I'm nice to her... but we don't get along. :\
PPS - Sorry it's so long! Thanks in advance..

yes, i think you should talk to your youth pastor. if your sunday school teacher is seriously as you described then it could effect all of the other students in your class. Just let the youth pastor know how you feel, tell him the truth but do it lovingly and with all intentions for the best. Catch him when he's not to busy and alone or if he is busy ask him when you could speak to him in private. Rapture!? haha. Even I know what that is. Sorry

Q: What should i do becuase i don't have a boyfriend and all my friends do?

find some temporary friends or ppl to hang out with until they come back

Q: I can't take this anymore! I'm suppose to be going on a cruise with my cousin and we really don't get along! We just got into another fight because she thinks that she is better than me! Don't tell me to "talk to her and tell her how you feel!" She always thinks that she knows more than me..maybe because she's older?? Also, if she can't get her way, she automatically gets pissed at me...I rate high if you don't give me crappy advice..

CRUISES ARE THE BEST! you would never see her on the cruise for sure! trust me ive been on alot you can have a whole lot of fun on cruises and never once run into her! there are so many places, parties, cafes, and shows on cruises that i wouldnt let that spoil the fun... hope i helped

Q: I am a swimmer and I get most of my excersize. I was wondering how I could keep in shape when it's over. I don't have the money to go to the gym.

jumping jacks are really good for u, set a goal to do like 100 a day. power walk around the neighborhood a bit (or jog) and strech really well afterwards (it keeps ur heart rate up).. also doing crunches, lunges and squats at night is good for the body and relaxing when it comes time to sleep

Q: I am a 13-year-old shy girl looking for ways to get money. My question is, does anyone know of a website for tips and ideas on how to make money for my age?
~passionate
PS. Thanks ahead of time.

your out of luck in a real employee type situation. BUT try working for neighbors, possibly OFFERing to take care of their house, do some vacumming or mowing and even watching their pets. in the summer lemonade stands make a few bucks too, i did that once it was FUN. also you cuold just ask your parents if there are things around the house that are important and need to be done and see if u can make a lil extra cash.
hope i helped

Q: Well me and my boyfriend have exsperimented "below" the belt. He never said anything before, but now hes complaining about me not shaving. I shaved once before, now i usually just trim. When i shved i hated it i couldnt stand it, it itched and hurt and it was annoying. What should i do?

just tell him that shaving there hurts you and tell him u'll trim it as much as you want to. maybe u should make him shave too and see how he likes it (probably not that much either)

Q: My boyfriend is having his confirmation in May and he's asked me to pick his confirmation name for him. I'm not really a religious person so I'm really not sure what names would be appropriate to pick for him, or a name that would "flow" well with his name. Does anyone know of a site they could refer me to so I could look at names, or if anyone could suggest a name. My boyfriends full name is Timothy James Walsh, by the way. Thank you so much if you can help!

go to behindthename.com
you can get LOTS of ideas in all sorts of languages and religions etc and its easy to understand. it also offers definitions or meanings for what every name virtually means
hope i helped :)

Q: I need some suggestions for a good, reliable car that gets good gas milage and is safe. Don't give me answers with sports cars; insurance bites.

hope i helped

Q: My boyfriend acts like he doesnt care when i talk to guys, but one of my guy friends gave me a ride to My bestfriends house for wings. and i told him it was my mom driving me because iknew he'd be super mad and break up with me and he found out and he did and i told him why but he didnt care we got back together two days later and weve been togeter for over 13 months, and he sits next to girls in all of his classes ex. one and alomst 3 classes are next to a girl i dont like very much and he refuses to move when i know he could. I dont get how he can flip out when i talk to a guy that he claims to have tried to break us up when the girl he actually has classes with and talks to tried the same just diffent ways i guess and he even made me stop talkin to him because of it. I wouldnt make him stop talkin to girls if hes friends with them but i feel like they are above me, how do i get him to relize what he has, cuz i wont be around forever, he doesnt think ill leave him but i have dumped him 1 time before and he got so mad, so i dont know what to do to make him show affection twards me and accept that i care if he leaves..ill rate high

wow you sound like your ranting
breath
its high school drama
talk it out if you love eachother, just sit down and talk it out over a meal or ice cream or seomthing along you'll figure it out
hope i helped
