ok..so i've been running track/cross country since i was 7. (i'm 16 now) and i also used to swim year round when i was 11-14 but i ended up quitting to focus more on running. but lately i have just gotten SO sick of running. its just like it lost something, ya know? it seems like i only do it because i have to and i dont really enjoy it like i used to. i also really miss swimming like a lot i loved it and i kinda want to keep swimming, but i know since i haven't swam in so long i wouldn't be very good. and i seriously don't know how to tell my parents i want to stop running thats like unheard of and all of my best friends are on track. i still have 2 more years of high school and i dont want to spend them doing something i dont enjoy, but i do want the letter in that sport to put on college applications. so i really dont know what to do! should i just keep running and stick it out until the end of high school? or start swimming again? (i can't do both) sorry its so long!
Well my suggestion is.. can't you get this "letter" thing that you were gonna put for running on your college application for swimming? Because wouldn't that be good? Saying you ran track AND swimming? And if you're not enjoying it, then I really wouldn't do it.. because you should do something you love..and even though you might not be GREAT at swimming, I'm sure you'll do good. And you can always go to the public pools and do laps and maybe go to the school pools and there'll be practices and stuff so you can work on your swimming..and about your friends..if they're you're best friends, then you'll see them in classes, hallway, and have them over you're house and stuff so it's not like you'll lose touch. So I'd join swimming because it seems like having two sports would be good on a college application.. hope I helped!

Well wow. 10 years. I can really see that you do care and you're not like those other girls. Well after all this time, I think the first thing you should do is talk to him. Flirt with him or something. Make yourself known to him. Because maybe if you do talk to him and get to know him, maybe you'll realize you don't like him as much or something. But if you do, I'd say keep flirting, and make him feel like you do care and let him know that you're not like those other girls.. cause if I were a boy, I'd like you for that. I'd find that a really good quality... So basically, just talk to him, get to know him...hope I helped!!

The guy I like (David) is really cool but he likes Kim. What should I do?
Well first I'd find out if she liked him, because if she doesn't, that makes your chances a little greater. If she does, then I would just let them go off because I really don't think theres any other way because if they both like eachother.. but if they were ever to break up, I'd suggest NOT TO TRY ANYTHING.. unless she's ok with that..but once again, if she doesn't like him, then try flirting with him and stuff and who knows? Maybe he'll like you. Hope I helped!!

how do you tell if something is real diamonds or not?
Well, one of the things you can do is go find a piece of glass that you don't need to use or something ( MAKE SURE YOU DON'T WANT IT/NEED IT ) and then take the "diamond" and scratch on the glass.. if it leaves a scratch mark, that means that its a real diamond.
