Name is Layne, age is 17, occupation is babysitter. still answering questions on here even after 3 years is awesome, right? no, just proves i don't have a life. so. if you have a question, feel free to ask it on here or you can IM me on my screenname. i can answer most questions about the categories i have listed. i don't know much about sickness or physical health, or stuff to wear when your husband just died but the man who killed him, whom you're having an affair with, is going to be at the funeral. :) have a wonderful day.

i have a problem, either im always sad or always mad. its like im never satisfied. and then when something makes me mad i think about everything that makes me mad and i become more mad. i feel like i have something to prove to everyone. i feel like i cant open myself up to anyone. because im going to get hurt. i always try and put people down just to make myself feel better. im insicure, and i feel like i need a hundred things i dont have the money for. i dont know what to do. please help. (link)
i've been like that for 3 years.

you're going through depression.

go to your doctor and get medication for it. im too young to get meds, so thats why i've been like this for a long time. idk how old you are, but try to get some help.

take care and if you have questions, im here. :)


Me and my husband have been together for 2yrs and its gotten to the point that he doesn't want to take me out anymore and its becoming a real bore he just wants to sit around and play poker and I'm sick of it what do I do. I'm 18 and he's 23 (link)
talk to him. ask him if he still wants to be together. marriage isnt a game you play and when you get tired you quit. its a life commitment and he needs to know that.

if he doesnt?

make him know that. tell him you love him and really want things to work out but if he doesnt try, you wont wait for him to try. divorce isnt pretty, but neither are lazy husbands.

maybe you guys got married too early. early marriages never ends up pretty. hate to tell you that...but yeah.

but like i said. talk to him and tell him whats on your mind.

i hope it all works out, take care! :)

take care. :)


My boyfriend and i have not been dating for a very long time only about 2 months. i am not sure how to tell or not but i think he might be cheating on me. I know he talks to other girls and texts and calls them and stuff but i am fine with that i am not the jelious type. but sometimes i will be holding his phone and i will just pretend to read his texts and he will freak out! i want to find out what he is hiding on his phone. i am not trying ot be nosey but him freaking out like he does makes me nervious... Any advice about either what to say to him or how to find out if he is or not? (link)
haha. i do that with my phone, too. my bf grabs it and i freak out and delete all my texts. phones are supposed to be private. the only reason i dont want him seeing my phone is because i talk about him a lot and i've mentioned a few things...not bad things. just sexual stuff that i dont want him to see because i wanna save the embarrassment.

that may be your bf's case, but unlike girls, boys dont hide that stuff.

idk. just talk to him. tell him you have a theory and you dont want him to get mad you just wanna ask a question. just tell him what you think, and listen to what he has to say.

8 times out of 10, when you think your bf is cheating on you? you're just being paranoid.

and i hope thats your case.

but yeah, i hope it all works out for you. :)


ive never been in a relationship. i really dont count 2 weeks with a guy anything serious..and thats pretty much all ive had in my life. ive had some guys want to go out with me and there was this one in particular saying he would do anything and everything for me..yet i always seem to turn them down.
i dont know if its because im scared to be in a committed relationship, or what.
sometimes i think to myself that if it was really ment to happen, then somehow i would end up being with them..and since im always alone, i just havent found the right guy yet.
is that stupid to think?
since i can remember, i used to always write in my journal and pray to find that one guy who really loves me..but nineteen years later, it hasnt came true.
i dont really know what im trying to ask, i just am confused on why i have been alone all my life i guess.
(link)
you're like me.

you dont want to go out with guy after guy, you want to find the guy that you'll spend the rest of your life with. makes things a lot less complicated. and saves the drama.

when you meet the right guy, you'll know. ask God for guidance. he'll lead you along the way if you let him.

i hope it all works out. and if you have questions, im here. :)


Im a girl in grade 12 and there is this one boy i've liked since grade 9. Me and him have been best friends since ive met him and we both used to like each other at one point. Me and him are very close to the point where we talk for hours on the fone, school and msn every day. He always used to make sexual jokes with me and we told each other last year that we used to like each other. Meanwhile, his close guy friend also liked me. Me and his friend started going out in june last year. Since then, me n my best friend continue to talk a lot but never in front of my bf. a couple weeks ago, me n my best friend went on a school trip to new york and on the bus ride home which was from 7 pm to 7 am, we made out. Me and my bf had broken up a month ago. It wasnt just a simple kiss, we kissed a lot fo times and when i woke up the next moring he was holding my hand .This is the firts time ivee gotten physical with him in my whoel life. When my bf, who still likes me, tried to beat him up, my best friend lied and said i made the move and that he never even liked me. I was mad at him for a week for lying but i realized its not worth runing a 4 yr friendship over.Was this just to save his butt and not ruin his reputation with his friend or is it the truth? Does my best friend like me but is lying to his friends? Or did he just use me physically?
(link)
well. this is a bit of a pickle, huh?

well, if he didnt like you he wouldnt have made out with you and held your hand. idk about you, but i dont just make out with ANYONE. only someone i really care about.

he probably said that to his friend to save his ass. and maybe his friendship. but since you and your ex werent going out at the time, he shouldnt care. girl rules dont apply to boys. they can go out with eachothers exes all they want.

this friend of yours sounds like a good guy. idk him, but i think he wouldnt use his best friend like that.

i really hope you two work it out. and i hope your ex gets an ass whooping from your current bf (or half bf?? whatever) he sounds like a prick.

take care! :)


When my boyfriend and I first started dating he always made time for me. He'd move his plans around, always make the most of our time, focus on me. When he answered his phone he'd always tell his friends that he was with me.

Now 6 months later--it's not like that anymore... He plays video games when we're together, when he answers his phone he says he isn't doing anything when asked and he doesn't want to move any plans around. I'm not saying I want him to bail on his friends for me but things like working out. He works out at completely random times and when we first stated dating, he'd push it back or move it forward so he could see me. Now if he decides he want to work out and I call him, he wont do that. And whats with the phone thing?

I guess I just miss the attention I used to get from him--now it feels like he ignores me sometimes. I still move things around to see him and I try to make the most of our time but it's a little hard when he's playing video games. I'm just not sure what's going on. He's 19 if that help. (link)
i really really really REALLY hate telling you this...especially when you dont know me...but i think he's losing interest in you.

and there is no way you can talk to him about it without it sounding selfish or picky or naggy or obsessed.

when my last bf started doing that i called him on it and he said he wanted to break up.

i really hope thats not the case here. maybe he was just treating you with special attention because yall were going out for the first time. maybe this is how he acts when he gets into deeper relationships.

but i hope it works out for you. take care. :)


hey well i love to draw, and im really super good at it (im gonna be a tattoo artist when i grow up) and im somewhat emo. im preppy too though, i just dress how i want. anyways, being emo, i like to do emo artwork sometimes, you know, like somewhat, moderatley disturbing stuff haha. but... ive run out of ideas. if anyone could give me some id be really grateful lol. but no links please, i only have internet here on my phone, and links dont show up.. thanks!! p.s..ill accept any ideas, even if theyre weird or whatever. im pretty openminded. like i said, thanks haha :) 16/f (link)
i do emo art, too.

what i've started doing is taking nail polish and dropping it on the paper so it makes weird splats and drops ad stuff? and then little black hearts...

other times i just take dark crayons and draw scribbles all over the place until the whole page is taken up of scribbles. and then right something in the middle in deep black. (ie: misery. sorrow. confusion....ect.)

anyways, just do anything. and have fun with it.

good luck, :)


what are the levels of people in college? freshman, sophomore, junior, senior like in high school? what if someone stays beyond the senior fourth year or only needs to finish less than 4 years of college? (link)
yes. its exactly like highschool. i dont know what its called if they want to be a doctor or something and stay an extra four years...sorry.


A friend and I are really close. We go out a lot such as dates and just hanging out but we are not actually dating. I really like her but am not sure how to ask her out in a way that she will understand that I want to be more then friends. I am a 17 male. (link)
well, just start out by asking her if she likes you more than a friend. tell her you care about her a lot and wanna try going out. and tell her if it doesnt work out, then yall can go back to being friends. you sound like a really sweet guy, and i hope it really works out for you.

take care. :)


ok..well this guy he likes me and i like him but like last night wehn we were talking he said that he weares eyeliner and i never knew thats o i was like ewwwww.ur a ugy u dont wear make up and like all freaking out..and thne he told mem he was bi...and he said he dont like girl that wear to much make up...and i wear make up not alot but i lok good in it so he baiscalyl said to his bi /wears eyelnier....and that i cant wear make up....after i got freaked out...he aske dme out an di said no...so then i hung up and he calle dm eback and said that he was jokin..about it but hes ounded realy convinsin liek realy convinsing and he made such a big fite over it ...which makes me think he wasnt kidding tand that his lying..and o he told me he was emo be fore..but what ever he isnt anymore..soo is he kying or not..?? (link)
you really need to stop...and breathe. you're rushing and messing up and it took me a few times to figure out what you were trying to say.

...sorry. anyways, it does sound like hes emo. and if hes bi, its no biggie. just means he likes guys and girls. and if he asks you out, he probably is interested in you. i think when guys where eye liner, its hott. you obviously arent into in that. but just tell him you thought he was forreal and you need him to tell you if he was serious or not. tell him girls DO NOT like to be confused. and unless WE ARE BI AS WELL, we dont find it very attractive. or you dont, anyways.

well, i hope it all works out for you. take care! and remember, BREAAATHE. :)


There is an ABC Family movie about a single mother who has a teenage daughter who has been having nightmares. While the mother is cleaning out the attic she finds a diary or something along those lines about like a family back in the old days who's daughter was hanuted with spirits or something like that? The story in the diary or w/e is more the movie then anything else. Does anyone know what its called!? (link)
are you sure its not "an american haunting"??

cause of what you just said sounds just like that movie.


i am embarrassed... i'm from a small town so most of the guys i know are like brothers and the few -I MEAN FEW- that are left are the ones my parents sheltered me from my whole life (the bad influence they say... the immorals) anyway i moved to the city and i am 21... i know i am weired and my fam is weired... even though i am still kind of sheltered i am willing to venture into the world of dating -without them knowing. thing is how do i find a guy that is interested in me... i'm affraid i kind of give off a "sister" vibe which i can't seem to get rid of!!! helppp... i really like this guy who's a bit older and way more experienced i don't know what to do! i've been dressing up and all and i know i am grabbing people's attention but i can't seem to get him to act... i don't know how to talk with guys in that way... so for any advice please please give specific details....

i know i sound goofy naive and childish.... but i am desperate... (link)
maybe its not a sister vibe you're giving off. maybe you're trying too hard. maybe the vibe you're giving off is "desperate" which is a major turn-off.

just be cool. go to parties and stuff and meet guys and have fun. relationships may seem all pretty and lovely and happy but really? in the depths? they suck. heartbreak all over the place. its fun for the first few months, and then you get bored. hence, heartbreak.

but yeah if you really really want one, go to one of those dating sites or google "dating tips and tricks" or something of the sort, and research it.

good luck and have fun! :)


Me and Cole-- Cole this soooooo hot guy who looks like he invented the look of Hardcore Punk is mouth watering! His eyes are amazing and when he smiles his eyes get bigger and bluer and I just gawk at his ughh he's soo cute! All I gotta say and he has a cute ass. Well I donno we've been talking more lastly and we started betting eachother on things like I cant dance at all for one whole day and as long as I dont dance he hasto pull his boxers all the way to his belly button and show them to me at anytime to make sure there up and in in certain classes have his shirt tucked in so everyone can and it's soo funny. Well it's not the first time Ive seen his boxers and he's deffinetly not decert about it... his friend dared him to un-button his pants and pretend to pull them off and i happen to be there and i was like WHAT THee.... he just quickly buttoned them and smiled so hey little peep show why not haha. And everyones saying it's just a way to get my attention but jeez his looks do that alone! Well Nikki has gotten a lil into it like Cole get ur boxers in your pants and getting angry at me and just mean really... but I dont really care about that I like him, and you can tell really by the way I look at him the way I notice things. Like I made fun of his teeth because there white but like inches apart but his smiles still gorgerous somehow and he covered his mouth and refused to smile at me for like an hour and I sit next to him in homeroom and Science and I couldnt take it I grabbed his hand pried it off his mouth and i guess I was very close to his face when i told him I missed his smile and he was like oh and my buck-teeth and I was like you should be happy! not all boys could pull that look off and everyone was like =O what is going on! He's really popular, and Im really not but I still flirt him him and he helps me with a lot of stuff but I donno... it's weird. The betting system is fun and makes my day a lot better and tommarow he cant get yelled at and if he doesnt I have to do something and I donno what yet and I have to do it-- but what if its like walk around with half your bra showing? or something?? Ahh. Help. Do I like him, should I?? and how is he soooooo delishhh =]3> (link)
ok, i dont really know how to answer that. but you really need to wake up. im sorry. relationships are not about looks. what about his personalilty?

yes. it sounds like you like him. but you like him for the wrong reasons. and by what your saying, it sounds like you're obsessed, girlie.

go talk to him. tell him you like him. he may say the same. i dunno. hes a boy.

but yeah, i wish for the best. good luck. :)


I was with this guy for like 2 days and then we broke up It has been 5 months and i still like him harder and harder I would so give my virginity to him and I cant stop thinking of him we might/were going to get back together and I was really happy everythime someone tell me something about him I get nervous to if it is going to be bad or good I want to talk about him all the time but I think my friends get tired of it...I dont talk to him much just hi and bye but I heard from a really close friend of both of ours that he likes me I cry for him all the time...I think I love him can this be love...Ps almost eveerthing I do is around him from school to clothes and I dont want to live without him
f/15 (link)
ok first of all take a deeeeeeep breath and use punctuation. now, stop and ask yourself, "would i be willing to live the rest of my life with him? what if he dramatically changed? (ex: gained weight, lost his hair, ect ect) would i still feel the same way?" if the answer to these is still yes, then yeah. you might love him. just tell him you still like him BUT DO NOT repeat DO NOT have sex with him. you will regret it in the long run. and you might get pregnant. that may not seem so bad right now but you will regret the decisions you make right now.

but yeah like i said just talk to him. maybe you both can get together soon. i hope it all works out. :)


Last summer i dated this boy. his name was franklin. i know sounds funny but. i really liked him. i met him at my bestfriends house. we went down to this pond by her house and we seen them and just started talking. then after we got to know eachother he asked me out. i obviously said yes. because he was sooo cute and sweet. then when i left my bestfriends house. for about a month me and franklin were talking alot. then out of no where my bestfriend left a message on my cell phone telling me he said it was over. i had no idea why. then i went on his myspace and seen this girl first on his top and her name was."i love franklin" so i added her being all nosey. we were good friends. until she told him i was talking to her. he called me up telling me to stop blah blah blah. and now he hates my guts. i still really really like him. and i see him everyother weekend when i goto my bestfriends house and he smiles at me and talks to me and stuff. but online hes a total asshole to me. and he tells my friends were friends. but idk what to do. i really want him to like me again. even though i really like him way more then a friend. what should i do? (link)
obviously he likes this girl. as much as it may hurt, you're going to have to stay out of their relationship. its none of your business what they do, when, and why. its his relationship. there is no problem in staying friends with him. or the girl. ask him the next time you see him why hes such an ass and ask him why its so bad to stay friends with her and him. honestly, there's nothing wrong with it. but you were doing it for the wrong reasons. just explain to him that he really hurt you and you dont want it to be over totally.

you never know. things may change. ;)

anyways, i hope it all works out for you.


does anyone know how to lace shoes like this?

http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/store/product.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302028397&PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524442172474&bmUID=1205960438277
(link)
when you get the shoes maybe you should ask the clerk.

if you already have them, idk.

have fun. (with shoes, i wouldnt know how. ;))


There was this music video on Vh1 where the girl goes into a room and unpacks a box and then like the pictures come to life and shes on a boat in the water or something like that
and I forgot the singer and the name of the song,does anyone know what im talking about? (link)
maybe you should go to VH1 dot com (or whatever their site name is) and look through their most played music vids and stuff. other than that, i have no clue.

take care! :)


ive been going out with my boyfriend for 5 months, on and off. we really like eachother. we break up for stupid reasons. he gets me reallly angry sometimes. his friends used to like me, and tell me things. but in the past month, me&my boyfriend broke up & i was really hurt. all of his friends knew, they told him& blahblah, we got back. but then all of his friends started talking about me, as they pasted me in the halls.. they tell practicly everyone they hate me. its really bothering me, & me and my boyfriend barly hang out now. i approached one of his friends, who hates me the most, & asked him why he has problems with me & he was like i just dont like you haha and walked away laughiing with his friends. i dont know what to do, i cant even talk to my boyfriend because him&his friends are alll alike. this is realy bothering me (link)
obviously, (i really hate to have to tell you this) your boyfriend doesnt care about what they are saying or he would be trying to stop it. they say that if your boyfriend or girlfriend doesnt like your friends you should dump them. well, if you didnt do anything to these boys and they are just hating you for no reason you should talk to your boyfriend. and if he doesnt do anything about it then dump him.

its a million to one here. your alone. and he doesnt seem to care by what your telling me. maybe they are mad because you upset him, too. i dunno. im not in their minds. but yeah. talk to your boyfriend. get him to help. if he doesnt, break it off.

i really hope it all works out! :)


I'm thinking about fasting for a few days, because I have a friend that does it, and it sparks my interest, and I really want to try it.

Can someone explain it to me? And give me some tips and tricks to stay on it?
(link)
fasting is something that certain types of reigions do at certain types of the month. mostly muslims and jews. but fasting isnt easy. especially for more than a day. remember, the human body cannot live without food or water for more than 3 days.

to fast, you cant eat anything during the day. but it depends on what religion is doing the fasting. like, muslims dont eat anything but some water and bread at night for the whole month of december!

the most you can have a day is some bread and water. only at certain times though.

tips and tricks are hard to come at when it comes to avoiding food. maybe you should try writing or drawing or something to keep your mind off of it. but dont fast for the wrong reasons. like, to lose weight. or just to see what its like. those are not good reasons. strongly religious people see this as a time to worship, not to lose weight or just try it.

take care and ask your friend about this. she/he will tell you more than i can. ;)
