I'm a guy and I normally don't have friend troubles, but here it goes..
My best friend has been acting really strange lately; he sort of shuns me now. We talked about it and he said that he was just going through some changes and that it wasn't my fault. He said that we were still best friends but he needed some space. I'm still confused though; if it wasn't my fault, then why do I feel so bad? and how can I approach my friend without being suffocating? This isn't normally a problem for me, but I just want to be as good of a friend as I can be.

well, first when you go to him ask if hes okay with you being there. if he says no then just leave him alone for a day or two. give hime sapace and he'll be fine. try not to feel guilty, its not your fault. only time can mend some things

How can I get around to doing my school work and not playing online (my school is completly online, I cant quit school to do school). And noone is ever around when I do school so I'm all by myself playing on the computer and watching TV (I'm homeschooled). Does anyone know ways to get to doing my school work.

make a schedule on when you should work and when to play. have a to-do-list so that you can see visually what is left for you to do. plan an hour of work and 1/2 hour of play. and try to stay concentrated. when you feel bored and are not doing anything then do easy work. plan time and keep track of how long you should work. (now if only i could do that)

The closest store I think is probably like, Wal-Mart, Rite Aid & the dollar store. But, the dollar store doesn't have anything.

oh well like i said, you can easily go to the stores website or even call them to make sure they have what you need :)

hi! just a quick question

in your opinion, do you think couples that are broken up should ever get back together?

thanx so much.1

13/F btw

i guess it all depends on the reason they broke up for.

First , i dont want any [ stupid ] answers , no one word answer because this requiers more. I dont want anyone answering on what they " heard " i want someone who has done this and KN0WS it CAN be done =) Thanks.

Well my body is average , im not fat , not lazy im athletic , do cheerleadering and soccer.

- I want to get in good [ body looking ] shape before summer , i mean im really determined. My boyfriend has a good body and i dont want him to show me up and i want to look better and feel better about my self.

I have little pudge in the front [ everyone does im guessing ] but i want ABS and i know i might now get the EXACT wway i want to but i want something better than what im working with now , ya know ? Also my " love handles " i want them G0NE and i mean gone , please give me some tips . Ill do anything for ( MY ) ideal body . thanks

ok well on tv i heard of this exercise for love handles ( i cant really explain it but i'll try) i actually do these myself (just started)

so after you run or exercise (sweat). do this when stretching. ok so what you would do it umlike sit on your knees kinda with one of your leg to the side of your body (look like you are on your knees just one leg is to your side). ok then lift that floded leg up. your whole folded leg (the one at your side) should be lifted vertically. do this a couple of time (or more). its really hard for me to explain and i cant find any pictures. so tell me if you dont get it. but its a good exercise (difficult) but effective

Can I get it at like, Wal-Mart, or just at Rite-Aid? Thanks.

proabably. places like walgreen is good with this. these stores have websites too so you can search the product on there and see to be sure.

Hello peoples!
mmmm, well heres the thing.
i am the youngest in my family, and i have two older brothers, one 16 and the other 18.
the one thats 16 isnt much of a poblem, but my oldest brother is ALWAYSSSS in my buissness.
its so annoying. how do i get him to stop?

well, it would help to know what he does speciafically. i mean does he read your diary or listen in on phone calls or does he talk to your friends when they come? knowing this would help come up with a better solution. but for know all i can say is well, hide your things better and lock your room.

what are some super easy pictures/paintings, etc. of things i could draw that can look really good drawn by someone with very little talent and not too much time. if you can include pics/examples that would be great
thanks and i will rate :)

well, objects arent too hard

like you can draw an apple or orange (a circle, haha). basic objects are real easy.

Ok, my name is Brenda, and here's the situation (it's a bit complicated, please try to follow along.) Ok, my friend Tracy likes a boy named Chad, and she thinks he likes her too. However, I know he likes my other friend Sandy, and she told me that he asked her out (but she said no because she doesn't like him). Anyway, Tracy was getting so wrapped up in him that I told her "I think he might like Sandy because he keeps asking her out." Well, Tracy went to Sandy and said "Brenda told me what you said about Chad, and I wanted to know, is it true??" Surprisingly, Sandy got so upset at me! She's mad that I told Tracy her business, and she thinks I only used her for information. I'm sorry that I told Tracy, but I don't think it's a big deal. Anyway, now she's mad at me. What should I do now? Thanks

just give it time. i don't think its that big of a deal to get all fussed over. i mean it should end, let them deal on their own.

I live in the dorms with a roommate at my college. My roommate is wonderful and she's really sweet, BUT she has really bad body odor. I don't know what causes it because she showers everyday and stuff, but she smells just awful and so does her side of the room.

At first, I thought it was just the room we were in, so I bought a bunch of air fresheners and I kept the window open to kind of air out the room. It worked for a little while, but it came back and I think it's because of her. I've noticed she never does laundry other than her work clothes and she never wears socks (like ever) so the smell is possibly coming from her feet.

I cannot move because I've already moved once this year and it would be too much to move again.

I don't know what to do. I don't want to be rude to her, but I don't want my stuff to start smelling like her either. Is there any way I can talk to her about it? Should I buy her socks as a gift or something?

I really can't stand to hurt her feelings. :(

well, you can subtley say that the room smells but not name the cause. this way she may realize the smell and be more aware of it. just randomly tell her it smells and you just have no idea where its coming from. hopefully she should catch on. also ask what you can do to get rid of the smell. if tries to find teh sloution then she should see teh problem.

good luck :)

Ok so this little girl was hugging me on this hill and I sliped and fell right on my face. For 2 days my nose has been hurting really really really bad! The pain is so unberible some times. If you slightly touch it I feel like I need to go to the emergency room. What could be wrong. Oh yeah and my mom said I had a sun burn on my face when I came home the day the little girl huged me, but whatever I did that usally works for a sunburn didnt work so I think it was just my nose. Any ideas what this could be?

well how does it look like? is it swelling? is it discolored (blueish, purpleish)? if is discolored you might have broken it.
but otherwise what you should do is to ice it. 20 min for every hour (3 days since the injury, so if you hurt it on mon, then ice till wed/thurs). if it still hurts then, go to a doctor

hope you feel better

p.s. and they say love is harmless, lol

Ok.
Well I Got My Period.
I Only Got It For A Day.
And It Hasnt Come Since.
Its Been At Least 2 Weeks.
This Hasnt Happened To Me Before.
I Mean I Didnt Get My Period For Four Months
But The Doctor Said It Was Normal.
Im Not Sexually Active Other Than The Fact That
I Finger My Self( Still Virgin).
So Is That Normal?
Btw I Sarted When I Was 11 And Im 14 Now.
Thanks For The Advice I Really Appreciate It!

dont worry about it

they take so long to become regular
like im 16 and they are still skrewy for me.

but if you are really worried (which you shouldn't be) talk to you mom and ask her if hers was like this, cause it could be genetic

im a really outgoing person. ive had a hard time finding good friends. like i talk to a ton of people in school but none are "good" friends that would make sure i have something to do on the weekend (normally i do but ya know) so how can i get them to be good friends, the ones who you have sleepovers with and tell anything to and get in trouble for talking in class.

well, its good that you are outgoing :)

but i would say to further develop the friendship tyr taking the first step in it. what i mean is that invite people over or hang out with them. i mean it will take time but soon they will feel closer to you and hopefully before long you will have "best" friends :)

im 15 years old. my name is william.

I am a freshman in highschool and for the past year ive been getting into drugs and alcohol very bad. my family doesnt trust me anymore, my friends (who got me into this shit) hate me and fuck with me. one of my best friends just jacked my ipod so that kinda hurt me. i can't get through the day without some pot or beer now, im turning into a complete alcoholic (kinda drunk right now). im ugly, i have very bad back acne, im getting 5 F's in school, no one (my family or friends) trust or like me. I have no one to talk to, i'm always grounded so I have nothing to do. I just want to make my life better, im fucking miserable right now. If I could i'd do better in school, I really try, but I don't get any of the math or science shit. I never did good in school, but 5 F's is outrageous and I need to change it. I try to get new friends, but im always shy and can't start or keep a conversation with anyone at school. I want to change who I am. I want to meet new people. But I can't. I want to get good grades, I want to do good in school and make my family proud, and stay out of drugs/alcohol, but I can't. I'm just that stupid kid that no one likes. maybe i'll just die.

thanks for listening to me, im just kind of venting here but any and all help would be great =]

i know this might sound obvious but talk to your parents (not about the past) but sit with only one of them at a time (like one day talk to your mom then and hour later talk to your dad, so they dont gang up on you). anyways tell them you want to get better but because you feel no support, it makes it harder for you.

also talk to a counsler, i know you might not want to but right now you just need some support.

write a list of what you said you want to do (ge better grades, make friends) then look for the thing you can check off first. work on that. write your thoughts in a journal (only for your eyes) so you can vent some more.

trust yourself that you can get better

good luck

p.s. if you need help like this feel free to ask me stuff k? i'll help you the best i can william :)

NOW:
Oh and just friday I found out that someone had written on a desk that says that I heart him..or the other way around and my korean friends keep asking if it was me. It wasn't me, but then one of my friends told me that it was prolly a bunch of korean guys..
And suu I went to church that day and came across sumone that goes to my High school and I asked her if she knew who wrote it, and she told me that everyone says it was me.
(Its not a rumor over the whole school, but a rumor over the whole korean community of the school, and I'm not korean, but all my friends are.)

Background:
There is this guy I thought was cute and He found out, but people told him that I liked him. I just thought he was cute! My friend told me that he likes sumone else. We talk very seldomly, but I see that he is always looking at me, and You know when someone is looking at you...and I'm a very paranoid person and I don't get why he looks at me. Hes the only person that calls me by my Korean name too. I really don't know.
My korean name is my nickname....

it seems like you have told then enough times that it wasnt you so now stop worrying over it. if you worry too much and be parinoid it will only look like it was you. so just ignore it, its not worth it
