well basically, you can't get a guy to like you, but who said one can't try? if this guy said he loved you and know he won't even talk to you, something tells me he's either faking it or he really does love you and is to shy to say anymore. he might've thought he embarrassed himself or something! give it some time for him to think over, but don't give him too much time. after you've given him this "space," try getting in touch with him again and see what happens. don't stress out over it, i'm sure all with go your way! best wishes!

Q: ok..my boyfriend and i have been going out for a year and five months..almost 6...and we have only been able to talk on the phone because my parents are way too strict!! weve only gone to a few places and i still love him and he still loves me but i really want to go places with him...do you know how i can talk to my parents without making them mad?
cuticlesistas!!

|

|

|

|

one option is: try and sit down with your parents and talk to them about the situation and why they won't let you go places. maybe it's a trust issue, but maybe they're not ready to let you go yet. any of this could be a possibility. if you're ready to confront your parents, do so! i encourage it (:
but if you don't think you want to talk to your parents just yet; a second option is: plan a group outing with a few close friends along with your boyfriend. if it is a trust issue, they'll probably let you go if it's in a group. you could plan an outing to go to theme parks (disneyland, raging waters, knotts, six flags, etc.) or just anywhere. you might want to consider inviting friends that your parents know or trust, so they don't get any suspicious ideas. but other than that, that should work! best of luck to you and your boyfriend!

Q: i've been training for cross country for my school and one day ill be able to run like 3 miles with no problem and then the next day i wont even get half a mile before cramping like mad which then i have to stop. like today. i had to quit running and totally sit so i would feel better. i cramp in my sides. both. any ideas on what to do to stop me from cramping. would it help if i didnt eat before i ran?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cramping is totally normal, everyone gets them, even pros. it might help a bit if you didn't eat before you ran. try to eat a meal an hour or two before you go running. you don't want to go running on a full stomach. and about a half an hour before you go running, you can take a small snack (whole grain bar, bananas - they give you a lot of energy and they help with cramps, etc.) remember to hydrate A LOT before and after training. it's important that your body is replenished. see what works for you and you're set! good luck during your season!

Q: Hey, 15/f/NC here searching for marching band help.
You see, I transfered from private to public school this year because my private school lacked the academics I needed to get into college. I've always been a huge band geek, so the moment I saw marching band listed as an elective with credit, I signed up.
The thing is, I don't know the slightest thing about marching band! Yes, I know how to play my instrument (flute), very well, in fact. But I have no idea what "steps" they use, etc. The playing my instrument while moving factor won't be that hard, but the actual steps might be.
Do you have any tips/tricks/heads-up information to offer? If you do, PLEASE answer. Your help, however small, will be greatly appreciated.
- A slightly confused band geek.

marching band is the BOMB!! this coming year will be my second year (sophomore) and i play the flute also! even though marching band requires hours and hours of practice, it's very much worth it in the end - competitions and tournaments. (: the hardest part about the flute is the flute being parallel to the ground. works your arm muscles a lot trying to hold it up the right angle, but you'll get used to it as season rolls along. you might want to check out our marching band's website. there are a lot of marching terms toward the bottom of the page.

hope all goes well during season! (:

Q: does anyone know other sayings people liked to say-anything, if you can remember from elementary to middle school, high school. For example, "I'm rubber and you're glue. Whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you." Or "That's what you are but what am I?" "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." or like spell icup, etc
Anything, doesn't have to be from that category of comebacks.

pretty safe to say he does like you (: things are always in a jumble after a breakup. give him some time to settle in & plan out what he wants to do. it might be a while until he asks out another girl (you), but you never know. just be prepared for anything! don't forget to keep in touch with him and if you want to find out if he really likes you, start up a casual conversation and ease in the subject. don't be so direct and to the point, but get your point across. best wishes to you!

Q: why does the shower water get cold when someone flushes the toilet?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
great question! hot water only flows out of the hot water tank when cold water flows in. when someone flushes the toilet, the overall water pressure is reduced. if you water input is strong enough, you should have enough extra water to continue the cold water stream to your toilet AND the shower. but if your water pressure is low, when someone flushes the toilet, the cold water will divide in half and you'll end up with hot water and not enough cold to counter it. if you want to fix this, you can change your feed pipes or you can turn down the hot water heater so when you take a shower, you only need to use hot water and not add cold water to make it cooler. that's about it!

Q: Though the rest of my body is in fairly good shape, my upper arms have more flab than is preferred, especially as they get nearer to the shoulders. I have a busy schedule and my breaks come in irregular and short intervals. What are some simple exercises I could do at my desk/when I'm waiting without any work out equipment?

|

the simple exercises come & save the day! yes, there are definitely simple exercises you can do "on the go." at your desk, you might want to try some counter pushups. all it is is a pushup against your desk instead of against the floor. you might also want to try to get two heavy objects (paperweights, etc.) and do overhead presses. hold them in your hands and raise them up gently. you can also do the bent over fly. harder to describe, but check it out here:

Q: Okay- I'm 13/f and I know a boy who is one of my best friends and I really like him we had a relationship before but it didn't work out - we were like....9 so of course it didn't but I'm starting to get the feeling that he likes me. Like he stares at me until I look at him then he looks away- or hes always defended me but now that his cousin has come down to visit (he's not to nice) when he gets mean he defends me as much as I defend him- and he is starting to stand next to me when i around- he blushes when I'm around- when I sleep(his sister Is my BFF) over at his house(we all sleep on the floor its like a normal thing at their house) he tries to sleep next to me(blush)-and when we talk he looks deep into my eyes and acts like I'm the only thing in the world that matters. Do you think he likes me and Is to shy to ask me out? Because I'm to scared ask him.

it's safe to say he likes you and it seems that both of you might be too shy to say anything about it. you might want to plan a group outing with a couple of close friends and just hang out. movies are always a good place to hang out. strike up a casual conversation and when you're ready, bring up the topic. everything will start flowing, best wishes!

Q: okay so theres this guy [ my boyfriend ]
and we've been going out for about 2 months and i dont really like him anymore. we never hang out that much so its kinda pointless to go out anymore and schools starting again and i wanna keep my options open.we've gone out before and i broke up with him that time and he was really sad. i dont know how to break up with him again. help?

assuming that last time's breakup isn't for the same reason. you might want to warn him about it first or drop some hints so he knows what to do. you two might hit the spark again. but if you're dead set on breaking up with him, never break up online. that's the worst possible scenario. so not online, start a casual conversation and casually ease in the subject. remember to compliment, compliment, compliment. it makes them feel at least a little bit better. the whole cliche "you're a nice guy and all but.." make sure you're clear about the reason why you're breaking up with him so he doesn't get any strange ideas. just reassure him during the process and make clear that you still want to be friends, and that should do it. there may be some awkwardness between you guys for some time after, but if you guys are good friends, it'll stay that way. best of luck to you!

Q: I am 19 years old. I have a fiance (earnie) whom I have been with for over a year. I also have been living with him and his family for this long. Earnie's family consists of his mother, father, older sister, younger brother, and his cousin. I love his family and I appreciate everything they have done for me, however, I feel like I am a burden. In a recent argument Earnie's mother and brother were having his brother said that he did not like me, and it seems to me that his sister doesn't either. I don't know what I can do to make them like me. I have been as nice to them as I know how. I accept that not everyone will like me, but I really don't like feeling like a burden. What can I do about this? Or is this just a hopeless question?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

this is most definitely NOT a hopeless question. there are people out there that no matter what we do will not accept who we are and "hate" us, or as i like to say, dislike. we all feel like a burden sometimes, and it's really hard to overcome. but think about it, you won't be marrying his family! but you might want to talk to your fiance about this and that you feel like a burden. talk to him about your thoughts and since it is his family, he will certainly help you. after talking to your fiance, you might or might not want to address this issue to his family members. either way, don't give yourself too much pressure because of this! everything will work out, just give it time!

Q: Okay, 2 Q's...
#1: What is this Garnier Fructis stuff and how does it work?
#2: My hair is about shoulder length and layered. I can wear it curly or straight and flipped out. I can pull it into a ponytail, but I can only braid it about an inch, and half of the hair had fallen out anyway. My hair is golden blonde and it usually cooperates pretty well. My question is this: What is a formal way that I can wear my hair? At least nicer than a ponytail.
Any answers will be great. THX!

Garnier Fructis is a line of hair care/hair styling products. that have everything - shampoo & conditioner, gel, hair spray, mousse, glossing spray, and wax! just your everyday hair care products (:
a formal way you can wear your hair might be a french twist. you can do it at home without going to a salon. you might also want to try a chignon, you can do that yourself at home too. you can search online for these hairsytles with directions. you can even do a fancy ponytail with curled ends - it looks gorgeous! and formally, you can always add accessories to your hair to spruce it up (glitter, clips, etc.) enjoy!

Q: Alright so I used to have a boyfriend named Drew but, I broke up with him. I`ve really been regreting it lately because I feel like I really didn`t give him a fair chance. The thing is he hangs out with these really slutty girls now that aren`t part of my group. I`m with the more popular girls. I want to tell him I regret breaking up with him and I wish we had another chance but I`m afraid he`ll just laugh at me. I have no idea what to do. Please help me

if you're still keeping in touch with him daily, go ahead and casually bring up the topic. don't be so direct at first, just ease it in. start with a casual conversation, talk about a couple things, and then find a way to relate the subject. don't be afraid of the things you believe in. on the other hand, if you're not still keeping in touch with him. get into a normal routine of talking to him again and once you're used to talking to him, talk with him about it. if you're not comfortable talking about it with him over the phone or in person, online works fine. but be prepared for any result. hope everything works out for you! remember, have faith!

try talking it out with your best friend. let her know what you think about the situation. you might want to be there for her because the "after breakup" times are always hard. if you want to go on a double-date, you could, but it's best if you let your best friend know if you decide to go. if you haven't made your decision yet, do talk with your best friend. it's better to get everything out and be totally honest with each other, than to keep secrets and have each other find out later by some other source. personally, i would give it some time before she settles in & that'll do! best wishes!

Q: this is REALLY long...sorry
I like this guy named Kevin, and i have for a while.
i have liked other guys, and had a boyfriend, but always had a crush on this guy.
We are pretty good friends, and we are coworkers
one day while working, i was like "hey, kevin, did you know i used to like you?"
and i said that because i didnt relize until a few days later i actually still liked him, its kinda a long story...
anyway, his jaw like, dropped, and i ended up asking him if he ever liked me, and after a really long and confusing answer, he was like "yeah, i did, it happened, its done" or soemthing like that.
So, i ended up telling him a few days later i still liked him, and he was like "okay" cause i kinda told him in this note i wrote him lol.
i was talking to him online, and i asked him what he liked about me before
he said " i dont know really, a lot of things, your looks were one of the things i'm sure...and the fact i can talk to you and it not be akward at all...that and a lot of other things"
so i said "okay, so what happened? my looks went bad and you cant talk to me"
and he said "no, i just cant trust you"
a few months ago, we made out, andi told a few friends, someone over heard, told a bunch of people, and too many people found out.
and someone told him i said he was a terrible kisser, plus,i have a fear of making out with guys with braces because i cut my tounge on this guys ones...
so thats what he means by he cant trust me...he says i critizes him too much because he still thinks i said he was bad, and because of the braces thing.
so, i flirt with him a lot, and he flirts back, and yet he says he doesnt like me anymore because of the trust thing...
then today, i was flirting with a lifegaurd at work (we allwork at the pool) and he got really pissed off
he was like "this is what i mean by the trust thing"
and i was like "you made it clear you dont like me, why do you care?"
and he said"because, if you really liked me, you wouldnt do that"
there was a lot more, and much more back story, but here is the question:
should i just try and gain his trust back somehow, and not flirt with anyother guys, and just focus on Kevin?
or should i tell him that since he says he doesnt like me, i dont want to be pressed on him all summer if there is no chance?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
well, first you've got to ask yourself what you really want out of this. do you want to just focus on Kevin? nothing is worth anything if you don't fight for it. when he said "if you really liked me, you wouldn't do that," he basically meant that if you really liked him, you would keep trying to get to know him, get his trust back, etc. but i mean, c`mon, the guys are supposed to do the chasing. but back to the question, this final decision will be what you want out of this, it's your decision, not his. do you want to get him to like you? or do you want to get out and move on? but if you really want to make sure if you have no chance, you might want to have a serious talk to him about what your thoughts. if he's a decent guy, he'll understand. either way, i know you'll make the decision right for you. g`luck!

Q: So, during the summer i have a problem with like shaving my bikini line. Whenever i shave, i get little bumpies. Does anyone know how i could prevent from getting these?? What are some good products??

the bumps are bacteria that have gotten into your pores from your razor, so it might not be the type of products you are using. but there's a way to prevent this! before you shave, scrub your bikini line with an antibacterial soap (Dial, Zest, Coast, etc.) this will reduce the amount of bacteria on your skin. when you have finished shaving, rinse off the shaving foam/gel and use a washcloth to scrub your bikini area with an antibacterial soap. this will remove some bacteria that was left after shaving. dry with a nice, clean towel. if after you've used this technique and there are still little bumps, use an antibacterial soap to wash the area twice a day. after you wash, apply some astringent (Phisoderm) to the area. in addition, you might want to pick up a hydrocortisone preparation (Cortaid) and accorind to the directions, soothe some over the area to reduce irritation and help it heal. hope it gets better!

Q: My best friend (who is 15) is dating my younger brother (who is also 15). Sometimes I feel left out because I'm 18... But I just found out that my brother had sex with her. I really don't know what to say. We are a Christian family. I should tell my parents, probably. I just don't know what to do. What if my best friend gets mad at me?

try talking about this situation with your best friend first. let your best friend know that you're concerned with the situation and discuss what you all should do. when you bring up the subject, she might not know how you found out and if you've already told other people. reassure her that you haven't and that she's the first you're sharing the knowledge of what happened. figure out what the best thing to do is and try to work it out. it might be hard to bring up the topic with her, but try to find the right time and everything will follow along. hope everything works out for the best for all of you!

i don't think HTML is allowed on the advice columns. but you can upload a picture that contains a solid color as a background and place that into the "Page Background URL" you can view my advice column to see what i mean. the blue is the uploaded picture placed in "Page Background Image (URL)" and the white background is placed in the "Page Background Color." hope that helps!

Q: Okay, let's get right down to it, I feel like I don't have any friends. I'm constantly comparing the amount of friends I have to the amount of friends other people have. For some reason, I always have less, and it is really starting to bother me. Also, I don't have that many guy friends that are my age and stuff (I'm a girl and I'm 14). I probably have about 10 good friends but I feel like I should have more. Is that an okay number, am I just over paraniod, or do I really not have that many friends at all? Should I make new friends and how? And pleas edon't suggest more actvities because I'm wicked busy during the school year.
By the way, I often suffer from lonlieness and depression.

considering the fact that you're already busy during the school year! (and i applaud you for that - way to be involved!) people would LOVE to have 10 good friends in their lives. you don't have to compare the amount of friends other people have. when you're at your activities, try to be more outgoing and make it your goal to get to know some people, start a friendly conversation here and there. when school starts, make some friends with a couple classmates. having 10 good friends is fabulous! (: but you can always get out there & make new ones! making new friends isn't easy, everyone knows that, all you have to do is don't think about what they'll think of you and just be yourself! the friends you make should like you for being you (: i'm sure you'll have a LOT of friends! on the other hand, your suffering from loneliness and depression - during the weekends or whenever you're not busy, call up your friends and see if they want to hang out. for me, sometimes i make online friends (i.e.: myspace, xanga, etc.) they could be living in a different state or a different country! but it's okay, just keep in touch here and there. and hey! i'll be your friend =] feel free to IM me or email me or anything. i'll be glad to have you as a friend (: remember, smile! =]
