hey, well you should enroll in singing lessons. that way your voice will get toned up a bit. usually the people at singing lesson places have connections. so maybe they could help if they think that your potientally good enough. they also usually have singing concerts at the end of the year. some professional people might be there. do karioke at public places. who knows who might see you? sing whenever and wherever you can. you never know whos listening. there are also shows like americas got talent that kids can sing on.
My friend wants to have a formal party. There would be girls and guys all 13 or 14 years old.
The only problem is that we have no idea what we could do once we're all dressed up. She's already picked out a fancy dress and everything..we just don't have any ideas for the party. Please help. :)
hey, well formal parties are ususally like the ones on sweet sixteen. they consist of djs, dancing, and good food. maybe you could have the dj play some games with you. not little kid games, but fun party games. the dj i had did that and bought funny little hawiian laws and huge sunglasses. have cameras on each table and have them turned into your friend at the end of the night.
i like this guy and i dont know if he likes someone else...some people say he might some people say he definately doesnt but...
ok so there was this school field trip that my whole grade went to except me and my friend...and i think im getting kind of jealous of my best friend because she's getting close to him...and she's closer to him than i am. anyway...so this is kind of like two questions...one: how can i get really close to him? i mean i try talking to him online but he just like gives really short answers and the convo stops there..like " so what kind of music do you like?" " good stuff. check my myspace music section". and i know it sounds weird..but it makes me really upset. so yeah how can i get close to him?. and two: how can i get over the jealousy??
please give answers
i really need help
thanks soo much!
hey, well getting closer to him involves getting to know him. maybe he`s just shy? let him know that you want to get to know him. say something like "hey, you seem like a really cool guy and i would like to get to know you better". talking to him on AIM is a good start. that way if there are any akward silences, you can say be right back. there is also email and texting. those can be really easy too, rather than talking in person or on the phone. talk to him about things that happen in school. you know the classic things like "oh, i cannot believe how much homework mr. vanderman gave us". or "wow, i cant believe that lucy and bob are dating". another thing to talk about is sports. say you both play soccer. thats a good thing to talk about. just basically anything that you two have in common. what you don`t want to do is talk about something that you don`t know much about like baseball. i know your probably thinking "but hes interested in that and if i talk about that he`ll like me better". thats not true. he can sense when you dont know what your talking about by your "ohs" and "i sees". as for getting over the whole jealously thing, tell your friend to back off. explain to her that you like the guy and that your getting jealous of her getting so close to him. tell her that its not right to like the same guy that your best friend does and if you liked the guy that she did you would back off.
my friend was dancing in the rain last nite and she slipped and fell. now her knees are bruised and she got a cut in her neck. she needed 9 stitches to sew it up. she went to the hospital. they say there is a slight chance she has brain damage. she cant remember how she got hurt. what are possible consiquences that could come after this? im so worried about her and i just keep having the horiable ideas about what might happen so i need to know the facts.
she says it hurts her to swallow
or to open her mouth very wide.
please help
hey, well you need to go to the doctors and find out which part of the brain that has the damage. from there use the symptom checklist part of this link and see the possible damages.

Okay, this boy likes my friend and everyone is like eww gross. He likes her! and all that stuff. And i kinda like him though but nobody knows cause he has like a SUPER BIG crush on my friend, and if they found out they would make fun of me. btw, he's in a grade lower than me and my friends. and she is kinda starting to like him. but she looks at him on the bad side. Saying that, i mean like she says, he is more immature than most of the guys in our grade. He's quiet. and all of that stuff. But i honestly think he is mroe mature and cuter and nicer than most of the boys in my grade. I don't know if i should actually tell him or wait until later on. We did hang out once at our school's basketball game. I'm a cheerleader and sometimes i see him staring at me. After me cheering the game was still going on so i went in the back of the audience with my friends and we told him to come back and watch the game with us. I would always talk to him in a flirty tone of voice so he would kinda get the hint that i maybe like him but i don't think he does. Is it okay for me to like him? And, sometimes my friend teases him and his friend (his friend also likes my OTHER friend)and says, "hey wanna go on a double date?" So, would it be okay if i went with them if they ever went cause i know they would probabaly think it's okay, and would want me there to make them less nervous, since im a really good friend for both of them. And i don't tend to get nervous that easily around boys. At the b-ball game i was the one to talk to him the most out of everyone.

hey, well if your friend actually likes this guy back then it`s wrong to like him. you should have a talk with your friend. tell her that you think that your starting to like him as more than a friend, but since you know that she might like him your consulting with her first. explain to her that the reason that your consulting with her is because you know that liking someone that your best friend does is wrong and that if she likes him then you will not make a move on him.
i finally invested in money to buy a cute pair of sand UGG boots. but now that im thinking about it, i want to know if there are other cute boots out there for a more affordable price. i'm looking for sand colored boots, furry on the inside, and a little bit below knee length (have to be flat!) also, can i have your opinion on UGG boots, are they still even "in" anymore? plus, when summer comes around, i want to wear them with jean skirts. what do you think, and do you suggest any stores that carry the types on boots im looking for? thanks! :]
hey, well last year ugg boots were super popular. this year they are still popular, but since more and more people are wearing them there getting more common. i myself am still a huge fan of uggs. i have at least 4 pairs! the new "it" type of ugg boots are the classic crochets. there more in than just the classic ones that you were talking about.
http://www.uggaustralia.com/ProductDetails.aspx?gID=w&categoryID=283&productID=5833&model=Classic+Crochet
i myself am trying to invest to get the brown classic crochet ones. i think that wearing jean skirts with any type of boot would be fine. as for cheaper ugg type boots, there are plenty of imitation ones out there. you could get them at just about anywhere at the mall. however, there is this store called journey`s. they sell real uggs there cheaper then what they sell them for on the ugg website. ill give you the link for them.
http://www.journeys.com/catalog_detail.aspx?c=vendors&s=girls/Ugg&id=53079
right now on the website there is only the ugg booties. in the store there are way more of a selection.
i can find any laws about women equalty and to show that women are equal today. i can only find Title 9 and then the 19th Amendment...
=(
hey, well i googled it for you and found a few links, you`re totally right tho. there`s not much here at all. i think the second link will be the best one for you and be more of what your looking for.

okay well as a christmas gift this past christmas my parents got me christina a. concert tickets... well just recently, heather (24 years old, so my mom approve of her responsibility, really nice, etc) mentioned it would be at TON of fun if we went together.. well im sure my mom intended for me and HER to go together but i brought it up anyways. i said to her "hahah yesterday heather was like 'IT WOULD BE AMAZING IF WE WENT TOGETHER, WOULDNT?!!??! ASK YOUR MOM' shes so funny" and my mom said i could bring her cause they were MY christmas gifts... and she seemed kinda sad but she said she didnt mind...
Wellll, i reallyreallyreally want to bring Heather, but i fell terrible. and plus i know that if my mom goes we'll get into a fight... AND she already has a musical planned for us to go to together next month... so is it that big of a deal?
so here are my list of questions...:
-who should i bring? (i want to bring heather but who SHOULD i bring)
-if heather, then how do i tell my mom
-if mom, what should i tell heather.... ):
THANKS AND SORRY IT WAS SO LONGGGGGG. (:
xoxo
hey, alright well the right thing to do would be to take your mom. your mom gave them to you thinking that they were for you and her. you should have told heather right away that they were for you and your mom. you see your friends a lot and the one day out of the year when your mom wants you to go to one place with her your going to blow her off?
iight i'ma try to make this quick. i'm with this guy that i meet a month ago. my bestest guy introduced him to me. At 1st i was like no cause i've been hurt a few times and i'm tryin to be good wit me, myself & i. but i ended up talkin to him and really fallen for him even though i tryed not to. But the problem is he goes to one school and i go to another. and yesturday i finally saw him... um he's alright but not truely not my type. but i dont kno now i aint that crazy for him no more. is it cause i saw him or cause i'm tryin not to really fall or is it cause our far away relationship? please help dis shortie.
hey, well you`ve basically narrowed it down yourself. you said hes not your type. there you go, thats a reason. sometimes we just don`t like certain people.
15/f. i'm sorry if this is long, i'll try to keep it as short as possible...between all of my friends there has been so much drama lately and it seems to all be about me. i don't think i'm doing anything wrong, but maybe i am and i just don't realize it. i have two really good friends katie and nicole and now we are like breaking apart. me and katie are still really close but nicole is becoming really rude and ignoring us all the time. but i know that katie and nicole have been friends FOREVER so they will always be friends no matter what. katie tells me that nicole says mean things about me to her when i'm not around. i kind've believe katie but i can't believer her 100% because she might be over exaggerating. i don't know who to trust anymore! like nicole called me to talk to me about what katie told me and was really nice about it. and she was saying that she would never say things like that because were friends. but then katie says she did! this is just so confusing! i know that nicole must have said something to katie about me, because katie wouldn't just make up a fake thing just to get me mad at nicole, katie isn't like that.
so basically what can i do? it seems like i can't trust anybody anymore. and please don't tell me to get new friends, because i can't.
hey, you need to have a meeting with your friends. basically make it like the scene in the movie mean girls where they all confess what they`ve said about each other, but less dramatic.
I have this friend who i've just reciently started to get to know over this year, and as the year has gone on i have started to like him more and more. But this guy just happens to be the friend of another one of my friends who is a total player and is really bossy to her on-off boyfriend. But whenever is see this guy, i really see him, but when he looks at me he just sees another person, i mean we talk and we joke and he even has his pet name for me, but he never really sees me no matter how much i try, he just sees my other friend whos got 3 other guys after her. I really like him and i don't know what to do, and i don't have the nerve to approch him and tell him how i feel. What should i do? Please help
hey, well you cant be too invisible to him if he has pet names for you and talks to you a lot. he sees you, just not in that way. the way of liking you and havign actual feelings for you. you have to try to respect that and just stay friends with him. be a good and loyal friend to him and who knows -- maybe one day he`ll see you as more of a friend.
im a freshman and this gurl from 2 lockers down talks to me sometimes and we sometimes walk to classes together. Anyways, im not that close to her and shes in 10th grde and seems more popular and i don't feel comfortbale "hanging out" with her. She gave me her phone number written on my hand to call her but i honestly dont like her that much and she seems like trouble i dont really want to ahng out with her, how do i tell her without hurting her feelings or getting her mad at me becuiase i still want to tlak to her in school
hey, well you just have to tell it like it is, honestly. if you honestly dont have feelings for her like that, tell her. dont lead her on anymore. shes probably hoping that your gonna call. her feelings are probably going to get hurt either way, whether you tell her that you dont have feelings for her or just never call. the more appropriate choice is to tell her. assure her that you want to be friends still tho.
ok there is this amazing girl at my school. i dated her last year, and now i am a freshman in highschool. while we were going out, i was to shy to really do anything. i wanted to kiss her so bad but i just couldnt find the strength to actually make my move. we broke up later because she did not like me anymore. we went out for about 3 weeks. before that we were really good friends, but now its like we dont talk at all anymore, part of the reason being we dont have any classes together. ever since we broke up though, its weird, it seemed like i wanted her more and more every day. i havnt stopped thinking about her every day and it has been almost a year now. i still see her almost everyday, because i go to a small private school. anyway, i have just learned that she is leaving my school, to go to another because she wants a change of things. i think i love her and i dont want her to leave, but i am too shy to step up and admit to her my feelings, not that it would change anything, but i just feel like she should know, before she goes that someone is thinking of her. i also feel that that might make things even more aukward between us, and i am really shy when it comes to this stuff.
hey, i`ve seen movies like this. where the guy is crazy about the girl, but thinks that she`s not interested when inside she really is. then they die and then learn how they both loved each other. you dont want that to happen -- now do you? you need to tell her how you feel in a cute sensitive way. whether its in person, on text, on email, on the phone, or on AIM, it just needs to be done. girls love hearing that someone cares about them, even if it`s from someone that they have no feelings for what-so-ever. i wish you the best of luck :].
Hi! OK. Its really simple, my boyfriend and I can text all day on the phone, but when we actually get on the phone, its hard to keep the conversation going. PLEASE HELP!! Give me some topics or something. I've never been at a lost for words but with him, I can never get my words right, PLEASE HELP
hey, well what do you guys talk about on text? try using some of those topics. you can also talk about what happened in school that day, no matter if you guys go to the same school or not, its nice to share thoughts about each others days. talk about a sport that both of you play (example:soccer) or just one that you guys both know quite a bit about. whatever you do, don`t talk about something that you have no idea about (example:baseball). if you talk about something that you have no idea about, you can`t get really into the conversation and actually understand what he is talking about. if it helps, try talking on AIM first. once you feel comfortable, call him. see if any of that helps. i wish you the best of luck :].
When I am around guys that I am JUST friend's with it i have a great personality, like i am funny and flirty, but when I start to like the guy or he is my boyfriend, all the sudden I can't think of things to talk about so i'm quiet.
My question is, how can I work towards fixing this? Because I know if I don't my relationships won't last long.
Thanks.
hey, well i had the same problem before. i was in a relationship with someone that i knew for quite a while and that i was friends with previously before starting a relationship with him. then i met someone when i transfered schools. we started a relationship that i am still in to this day. i feel way more comfortable around him that i ever thought of being with the other guy. basically what im trying to say to you is sometimes knowing someone for a long time and being friends with them before starting a relationship isn`t always the best thing to do. well at least, thats what kind of relationships work best for me. the kind that you just met someone and within a week of talking to them, you flirt like crazy and basically have a relationship based on flirting, rather then a friendship. the second thing that could be the problem, is you. maybe your just not mature enough for a relationship yet and are basically treating it like a friendship. if you think that that`s the problem, just flirt with strictly friends and stay single for a little. true love WILL find its way when you LEAST expect it. whether its at age 15 or at age 21, it will come for you. just hang in there. things have to get WORSE before then can get BETTER. i wish you the best of luck :].
i met this guy like 4 months ago and no we are not going out but we have gone and dates and i also lost my virginity to him. The last two months i have found myself so caught up in him and im falling so hard for him. We dont talk on a daily basis maybe 4 times a week.
A month after i met him i really liked him and i told him that and he called me clingy and we got in this argument and stopped talking for three weeks. I dont want to repeat that but i really need him right now in my life.
Im the type of girl that only tells a guy i love you if i truely honestly mean it. And i really just want to tell him but how do i tell him with out him leaving?
thanks guys.
hey, well if you really truly felt that strongly for him and he just pushed you away like that without even thinking of your feelings first then im sorry, but he is a total jerk. my best advice to you would be to move on. find other guys and date around. i know right now that this seems like he is the only guy for you and that you are madly in love with him, but you deserve way better. i don`t even know you and i can clearly tell you that. this is for your own good. im not on an evil crusade to crush your feelings and make you forget about the boy that you love, im just trying to help you in the long run. believe me, if he crushed your feelings and hurt your heart before, he will do it again. you need to find someone that loves you for you and appreciates having you around. there are lots of ways to meet other guys. myspace, facebook, friend`s friends, school, and clubs. shop around. use what the other boy did to you as qualities NOT to look for in the next boy that you fall for. i wish you the best of luck :].
ok there is this girl at my school who i used to date, but it did not really go all that well, i was too shy. first of all i do not know how to overcome that, and second, ever since we broke up i have realized more and more how much i love her and want her, even though we rarely talk. she is also leaving at the end of this school year, i want to tell her that i love her, but it sounds so stupid.
hey, well about the relationship that didn`t work out, you need to do something about it. you either a) try to forget about it and move on or b) make something of it. if you picked a), its probably easiest to start talking to other girls. since she is leaving at the end of the year, since your shy this option might be the better choice for you. that way once it gets towards the end of the year and closer to her leaving, you will have other girls to talk to and who knows maybe even a relationship. talking to other girls frequently will help you forget about the girl and having a relationship with definately help you forget about that girl. stuck thinking of ways to meet girls? there are lots. myspace, facebook, other friend`s friends, school, and clubs. if you picked b), you`ll surely have to start talking to her and eventually admit to her your strong feelings for her. since you said that you are shy, i think option a) might be the better choice. anyways with this option, you will have to build a pretty good and solid friendship with her. after you do that and talk to her frequently, you`ll have to tell her how much you care for her. don`t do this too early in the friendship, or you will seem stalkerish and creepy. you dont want that to be the impression left on her -- now do you? go with your gut instinct. i wish you the best of luck :].
well i have this friend, her name is kaitlyn. and shes been goin out with this kid for about 3 months now. hes pretty cool. me and him are friends but he always is so controlling over kaitlyn. me and her are best friends and we have this really good friend ray that we have been friends with wayy longer then when her and her bf have known each other. she used to have a little crush on ray but she got over it fast cause they were just friends.and it was seriously nothing cause ray never knew and he didnt think of her like that. well her bf gets really mad when he calls her or she calls him. he wont talk to her and he always makes bad comments towards ray. and i think its really stupid cause were all really good friends. he wont go anywhere ray is. and its not just ray.. its EVERY guy that kaitlyn hangs out with. and thats most of our friends. just friends. if me and her go somewhere and are hangin out with one of them then he gets mad and thinks shes cheating on him or something and he keeps hanging up on her which causes her to keep calling him and apoligizing (even though she didnt do anything wrong) and she stays on the phone all night and ignores all of us. and he always seems to throw this one ex up in her face saying that hes goin to hang out with her if kaitlyn is hangin out with guys.
kaitlyn says she loves him and he loves her i guess but i think its stupid how he does that.
what do you think?
hey, thats not right and not healthy for kaitlyn. she needs to either a) have him change or b) break up with him. i know its worng to have people change but in this case its so nessasary.
When you would get a boyfriend what are the steps? I'm confused, do you go straight to boyfriend? Do you tell him you like him?
Can someone give me just the general steps starting from the first time you see him. (the guy I like is not friends with me)
hey, well you would obviously have to start talking to him before even thinking about him being boyfriend material. you have to make sure that you guys bost have a general interest in each other. start talking to him on AIM first. its easier to get to know someone on there, rather than in real life. that way if there is any akward silences, you can say be right back, that is until you find soemthng to say. yes, you should admit to him that you like him when you guys become GOOD FRIENDS. telling him that too earlier in the friendship comes off as creepy and stalkerish and you wouldnt want that to be his first impression of you. once you guys know that you like each other one of you needs to take the plunge and ask the other one out. rejection is scary, but its worth the shot :].
