hey guys....im 15/f and my background is Indian....my parents are from India but i am a Canadian...well my problem is my mom...she's all anti-boys...i am not allowed to talk to them anywhere outside class...but that's not fair! I honestly don't listen to her..i have guy friends and i am not ashamed of that...how can i talk to my mom about boys in general?
I don't agree with the response before me, I know you're supposed to respect your parents, but, you're getting older and you're supposed to take responsibility for your actions, and I think you should talk to her about that. Maybe you could talk to her about taking it slow, and not DATING yet, but at least being able to TALK to them without hiding it from her. Good luck.

ok so i told my boyfriend what im getting him for valentines day. (a made up cd of all the songs he wants but doesnt have) but i want him to be surprised with something else, I DONT HAVE MONEY sadly enough its ture and well the shit of this all is that valentines day is like wednsday!!! omy i know so what the hell do i give him a card? a kiss? what??? something special ...something cheap but totally what a guy wants. ( ican borrow money) just keep that in mind. so i can buy something but well ya ok thanks!
Alright, try taking him to one of his favorite places or out somewhere cute. Like, take him bowling if he likes that, or out to see a movie you know he wants to see or that he would most likely enjoy. Just make sure on Valentine's Day, you dedicate it to him, and if it's an evening/night thing, at the end of the date/event you could kiss him. That would probably make him happy. :] You could also give him a cute handmade card, just to show that you care and love him enough to take the time to make him something.
Good luck.

I have recently broke up with my bf after like a year, and I dunno how to feel. Sometimes I am really good, others I am so depressed I cant stop crying, I keep on seeing things that remind me of him, or hear songs or certain places that wind me up. I try to go out and get my head of things,but itsnot happening.
He had self-harm issues. There where a few occasions when he never got his way (For example, if I talked flirtaciously with a friend of mine, refused to speak to him because we where argueing) that he would cut, bite or hurt himself. Sometimes he even performed these things infront of me, and at times threatened to kill himself.
He was also rather violent towards me. He spat in my face a few times, grabbed my side so hard that it bruised entirely, punched me because he was being cheeky, so I was cheeky back,we knocked the hell outta each other twice (the first time I wanted to go home, he pushed me, screamed in my ear, shook me and wouldnt let me go, so I defended myself, the second I ended up in hospital with a black eye, it started becasue he punched me. I hit him back, AND HE PHONED THE POLICE), He full scale booted me infront off his best mate when we went camping, becasue I spoke to his friend and not to him cus where argueing, threatned to smash a mirror over my face and tried to burn my face with GHD straighteners, again,becasue I wanted to go home as things where getting too much. He also pushed me oncewhen I touched his facewith wax byaccident and I fellout the door. He hated me going out by myself without him, and mademe feel guiltyall the time, and unless I texted him throughout the night, would start an arguemtn the day after. He also went nuts at me for watching on porn my computer, but doesnt everyone, lol? He put me down an awful lot, calling my stupied or pathetic, even typing the words hurts.
He blamed me for his actions, casue I drove him crazy etc. He has trust issues. I didnt tell him bout talking to my ex, as he would get the wrong end of the stick, and told him it was weird seeing him with anohter person (when I saw him for the first time after the split), but we did talk, not bout us, just bout the youth club we both attended. I made up a few wee fibs, bout sleeping with someone he used to like and I didnt tell him my true a level grades, casue he was so smart and I felt daft on our first date.But helied bout weesilly things too and they didnt annoy me. The first time he grabbed meand hurt me was when I was honest to him bout not sleeping with the guy and talking to Andi. But after that, its hard to turst anyone who hurts you, took me a few days to realise what he did to me was wrong. I confided in my friends about some of the things that happened and he went MAD at me,but you need to talk, and he washard to talk with with that temper.
But we are broke up now and things are hard. He did treat me bad. But its hard for me. I wanted to help himin the way I couldnt my brother (who commitedsuicide a few years ago). And now I have to go out each week and face him in the one gay bar that we have, its so hard. How doya get over something like this, I miss him so much at times it hurts. And hes always in town as well wheich makesit harder,.
ADVICE!!!!!!
P.S...I am gay btw!
Okay, that's just scary. That's being way too abusive, for no apparent reason, and I`m sorry if you still have feelings for him, but, he needs to see a specialist to deal with his anger. I also think you need to avoid him as much as possible, in case he tries to hurt you. Talk to someone about getting him help, because he's been or has hurt you, and that's not right. I understand that it's going to be hard to get over him, but try engaging in activities or other groups that won't interfere with him or his other activities. Hope all goes well.

lately my breasts have been so sore.
whether im in the shower or wearing a bra,they hurt really bad.
and its almost like i can feel them stretching when im not wearing a bra.
i need help?
is this normal.
btw i wear a 34c-d.
thanks a ton.
Like most parts of the body, breasts can be sore from time to time. Not only for girls, but for guys, too. You may be worried about your body's development, about what causes breast soreness, and even about cancer.
If you're a girl, you may have noticed a slightly sore feeling when you wash your breasts in the shower. Or maybe you felt an ache when you've rolled onto your stomach in bed. Sometimes it may have felt like your breasts gained 10 pounds overnight.
If you're a guy, you may have noticed some tenderness and even a lump beneath your nipple area.
Whether it's a dull ache or a sharp pain, soreness in your breasts can be scary. TV shows, magazines, and newspapers are filled with information about breast cancer, so it's easy to think your pain could make you a statistic, but don't freak out.
The truth is that breast pain in a teen is rarely cancer. So what is it and how can you be sure?
What Are Breasts and Why Do I Have Them?
All mammals have breasts and humans are no exception. Breasts, which are milk-producing glands, begin to enlarge in females around the onset of puberty. Breasts are made of fat and other tissue that surround and protect nerves, blood vessels, and milk ducts (small tube-like paths).
The main biological reason young women have breasts is to allow them to feed babies. Since long before the invention of the bottle, babies have been nursed (fed milk) straight from their mothers' nipples. Although some women give their babies formula from bottles, women still breastfeed their newborns. In fact, doctors recommend breastfeeding as the best way to meet a baby's nutritional needs.
The timing of breast development varies from girl to girl. Normally, girls begin getting breasts as early as 8 years old or as late as 14. In general, it takes 4 to 5 years for breasts to reach adult size.
When guys start puberty it is common to develop a small amount of breast enlargement too. During puberty, hormones in the body cause the breasts to grow larger. The difference is for guys, this condition is called gynecomastia and is usually temporary.
What Causes Soreness?
One of the most common times that breasts might feel sore is when they are beginning to develop. First you might notice a small button-like lump beneath the nipple area. The medical name for this is the breast bud, and it is often present in guys and girls. The breast bud may be a little tender and may cause you to worry but it's a normal part of puberty.
It is also common to have sore breasts around the beginning of a girl's period, or menstruation. A week or so before her period starts, the body begins producing lots of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone.
These hormones can cause feelings that together are called premenstrual syndrome, or PMS. Some girls have painful cramps in their stomachs, headaches, mood swings, or cravings for certain foods right before their periods begin. During this time the body may retain water, which can make a girl feel puffy and bloated. Rings and shoes may feel tight at this time.
Just as fingers and feet swell, so can breasts. All that fluid forces the breast tissues to expand, which stretches the nerves and makes breasts feel achy or tender.
Even greater amounts of breast swelling and tenderness can be one of the earliest signs of pregnancy. Be sure to talk to a parent or doctor right away if you might be pregnant.
Also, if you ever notice discharge from one or both breasts, call your doctor right away.
What Can I Do to Relieve the Ache?
Most PMS symptoms, including breast soreness, should disappear as your period begins. Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen might be helpful. Wearing a supportive bra might also help.
Healthy eating and a lot of rest are really your best bets for lessening the ache. You might try cutting down on salty foods and foods that contain caffeine, like coffee, tea, and even chocolate. Try caffeine-free soda or herbal tea instead.
If you're tired, take a rest! Snuggle on the couch with your pillow and watch a good movie. Sometimes getting your mind off your aches is the best thing you can do.
What if I'm Still Worried?
Sometimes all the knowledge in the world won't help you feel better. Maybe the pain is a little sharper this time, or maybe it lasted longer than usual, or maybe you just want to get it checked out. You don't need to sit at home and worry - visit your doctor.
You may feel foolish, but your doctor should share your concerns. The doctor sees patients all the time for things that may seem silly, but if you're worried, then it's not dumb. Although you may feel a little embarrassed to ask about breast pain or about a lump, there's no need to. A breast exam is a quick and painless procedure. Besides, it's a small price to pay for a doctor's assurance that your aches are completely normal.

i was wondering if there was anyway to treat a bladder infection minus the antibiodicts. (without going to the doctor and getting a perscrption) thanks.
While antibiotics prescribed by a physician are the only way to cure a bladder infection, there are some things you can do to self-treat the symptoms and to help prevent future bladder infections.
An all-time favorite way to treat and prevent blader infections at at home is to drink cranberry juice. Cranberry juice often helps to reduce frequency of bladder infections. Cranberry herbal supplements are available over-the-counter and many women find they work amazingly quickly when an UTI has occurred.

15/f, freshman. i'm shy, like pretty shy and in school, i'm quiet. in my classes i'm not the one who's raising their hand for every question and i'm not like extremely talkative in class. with new people, i find it hard to talk to them and open up. i've never had a real boyfriend, never kissed or anything. it hasn't started bothering me until recently. i know that i have to change. not only do i want a boyfriend but i want friends, guy friends or girl friends. i have some friends but i can't always depend on them and get bored easily. so now, it seems like there's not only pressure from myself to have a boyfriend/friends, but from my family. lately whenever my family gets together, we get into the topic of people we like. my 18 year old cousin always brings her boyfriend along, and my 11 year old brother, who is more outgoing than me is always asked about his "girlfriends". yeah, he somehow talks to a lot more girls than i do boys. it's annoying. because it's come to the point where they don't even ask ME about my love life or whatever. not that i care, b/c i'd just get embarressed. i'm like scared they think i'm a lesbian lol but i'm definitely not. i like boys. and then my brother had to say that infront of my cousin and her boyfriend. so i was like greattt. but im not. im just shy! i really want a boyfriend. i've come to the point where i don't care who he is. but like no one understands..i'm shy and it's sooooo hard for me to go up to people and just start talking. idk i know i can do it, i just choose not to. what can i do?!?!?! thanks soo much. sorry it was so long.
Honestly, you shouldn't rush anything. I`m shy too, but, try joining groups or something, and then you`ll meet people that way.

Dear Annerz_101,
I'm in love, VERY in love with my girlfriend. She's the one I want to spend my entire life with, I couldn't imagine being without her. She's just amazing, and I love her. But anyway, sometimes I'm not sure if she realizes how much I love her. I can't tell her enough, sometimes I think I say it too much. But I'm just not sure...What should I do?
- Dave
If you love her, and she loves you, there's deffiently no possible way that you tell her it to much. If you're not sure she realizes it, try doing cute things or stuff to make sure she gets it through her head. If she doubts you, that means you just have to try harder, or she has trust issues. Just make sure she knows, and you two will be alright. :]

my friend ashley wants to be a 9th grader so bad even though we are only 8th graders she used to hang out with me like everyday now she only hangs out with her 9th grader friends!! what do i do?
Sorry to break it to you, but she's not a good friend. She's the type of person who cares too much about fitting in, that she doesn't stop to think about who she's hurting on the way there. You can two things to solve this problem. You can either talk to her about how you feel or you can try and find new friends who DON'T care so much about fitting in.

I can't stand my boyfriend. We've been on a break for like a month because I don't really like him that much. I know that I shouldn't keep going out with him or whatever, but I still want to be friends with him. He always asks why about everything so if I'm like I don't feel the same way he goes off and says why don't you like me anymore, are you not attracted to me anymore, did i do something wrong, what did i do, everything was finew aht happened. ITs like i can't stand him anymore as a boyfriend and he's so boring all hedoes is hang out with his family or me during the weekend. Sure that cool and all but it seems like he has no friends. It's like he didn't do anything wrong I just don't like him anymore. How can I break up with him?
Wow, honestly, that's a mess. I think you need to sit him down and tell him how you're feeling. I know it's going to be hard, so carefully plan out what you're going to tell him. I also know he might be a little hurt, just tell him you need a break and want to try being friends. If he's okay with it, you know he's a good person. If he says things along the lines of, "But babyy. I`ll change." He's not going to, and you're just going to be stressed even more.

simplest way to put it, i like 3 guys. they're all my friends. one of them, let's call him Al, is the same race as me, meaning we know each other's family. i used to have a crush on him like, 3 years ago, and i guess it came back. the other one, let's call him jordan, was one of my best friends. he came to our school during 7th grade (i'm now in 8th), and i was his first real friend there. i asked him out around november last year, but he said no. i always feel awkward when i'm around him. the third one, let's call him gary, just started being my friend this school year. we never talked to each other. it all started when he asked me what was math homework.they're all awesome. they're nice, funny, understanding; everything you can ask for in a friend and boyfriend. but i don't like liking 3 guys. it makes me feel slutty. i was wondering who you think i would have a better chance with? here's what i think for each of them:
Al - i think it would be weird going out with him since our parents know each other, and we see each other outside of school a lot, which can be an advantage, but it also means that our parents will know if we do go out
Jackson - i asked him out because i thought i had a chance with him. his reason was because he didn't want to endanger our friendship afterwards if we were to have a relationship.
Gary - i love spending time with him. he's kinda big but he's athletic. he's really cuddly, and i love hugging him. it's great and all, but i know that we're not gonna be in the same high school in 9th grade since he's moving to another city after this school year's over.
who do i have a better chance with and who should do you think would ask me out first? any other opinions about this is very very appreciated!
I agree, no one can tell you who to like more, it's entirely up to you, and only you. You have to spend more time with the three guys and decide who gives you the most attraction feeling. If you have any doubts about having a relationship with one of the guys, you know they're probably not going to be a good companion for you. You should get to know them really well, and hint that you like them, and if they're avoiding the subject of forming a relationship, I honestly think you shouldn't push it, and let the feelings flow. I hope this helps. =]

Hi- I'm a 16 year old male..
I have a crush on this guy in my english class-
We really hit it off the first couple weeks of school.. but I'm not sure if/when to ask him out..
He seems like he likes me just as much as I like him.. but I'm not sure if I should ask him out-
should I?
I have these dreams about him.. where we are sitting on the beach- kissing each other.. and he's got his shirt off.. and so do I... and we are feeling each other's chests.. and having a great time.. HE's SO GORGEOUS!!!
but I'm not sure if I am just having sexual feelings for him or if I really like him..
I mean.. he's always saying, "You're so amazing, Jeff," and stuff..
And if I ask him out.. should I take him to my place to "hang out" and maybe make out in my bed?
Please help!
Hmm well have you tried talking to him about how you feel about him? If you're nervous about confronting him about it, try giving him hints and THEN telling him your feelings. and about the taking him to your place.. try taking things slow.
let me know if i helped.. thanks :]

hey
if anyone has ever read the book, "The Scarlet Letter", and would like to help me with an essay..that would be greatly appreciated...i need to find quotes that describe how evil dominates and such.
thanks in advance!!=)
Try to put some of these into your own words though. Let me know if I helped..
Quote 1: "Here, in a word, - and it is a rare instance in my life, - I had met with a person thoroughly adapted to the situation which he held." Introductory, pg. 24
Quote 2: "But the object that most drew my attention, in the mysterious package, was a certain affair of fine red cloth, much worn and faded....It had been wrought, as was easy to perceive, with wonderful skill of needlework....This rag of scarlet cloth,- for time and wear and a sacrilegious moth had reduced it to little other than a rag,- on careful examination, assumed the shape of a letter. It was the capital letter A. By an accurate measurement, each limb proved to be precisely three inches and a quarter in length. It had been intended, there could be no doubt, as an ornamental article of dress; but how it was to be worn, or what rank, honor, and dignity, in by-past times, were signified by it, was a riddle which...I saw little hope of solving." Introductory, pg. 30
Quote 3: "...I happened to place it on my breast....It seemed to me then, that I experienced a sensation not altogether physical, yet almost so, as of a burning heat; and as if the letter were not of red cloth, but red-hot iron. I shuddered, and involuntarily let it fall upon the floor." Introductory, pg. 31
Quote 4: "[O]n one side of the portal, and rooted almost at the threshold, was a wild rose-bush, covered, in this month of June, with its delicate gems, which might be imagined to offer their fragrance and fragile beauty to the prisoner as he went in, and to the condemned criminal as he came forth to his doom, in token that the deep heart of Nature could pity and be kind to him." Chapter 1, pg. 46
Quote 5: "On the breast of her gown, in fine red cloth, surrounded with an elaborate embroidery and fantastic flourishes of gold-thread, appeared the letter A. It was so artistically done, and with so much fertility and gorgeous luxuriance of fancy, that it had all the effect of a last and fitting decoration to the apparel which she wore; and which was of a splendor in accordance with the taste of the age, but greatly beyond what was allowed by the sumptuary regulations of the colony." Chapter 2, pg. 50
Quote 6: "When he found the eyes of Hester Prynne fastened on his own, and saw that she appeared to recognize him, he slowly and calmly raised his finger, made a gesture with it in the air, and laid it on his lips." Chapter 3, pg. 57
Quote 7: "he will be known." Chapter 3, pg. 59
Quote 8: "'Never!' Replied Hester Prynne, looking, not at Mr. Wilson, but into the deep and troubled eyes of the younger clergyman [Dimmesdale]. 'It is too deeply branded. Ye cannot take it off. And would that I might endure his agony, as well as mine!'" Chapter 3, pg. 64
Quote 9: "But there is a fatality, a feeling so irresistible and inevitable that it has the force of doom, which almost invariably compels human beings to linger around and haunt, ghostlike, the spot where some great and marked event has given the color to their lifetime; and still the more irresistibly, the darker the tinge that saddens it." Chapter 5, pg. 73
Quote 10: "But it is not recorded that, in a single instance, her skill was called in aid to embroider the white veil which was to cover the pure blushes of a bride." Chapter 5, pg. 76
Quote 11: "Throughout all, however, there was a trait of passion, a certain depth of hue....The child could not be made amenable to rules....The mother's impassioned state had been the medium through which were transmitted to the unborn infant the rays of its moral life; and, however white and clear originally, they had taken the deep stains of crimson and gold, the fiery lustre, the black shadow, and the untempered light of the intervening substance. Above all, the warfare of Hester's spirit, at that epoch, was perpetuated in Pearl." Chapter 6, pg. 83
Quote 12: "There was a fire in her [Pearl] and throughout her; she seemed the unpremeditated offshoot of a passionate moment." Chapter 7, pg. 93
Quote 13: "'No, my little Pearl!' said her mother. 'Thou must gather thine own sunshine. I have none to give thee!'" Chapter 7, pg. 95
Quote 14: "'I am my mother's child,' answered the scarlet vision, 'and my name is Pearl!'" Chapter 8, pg. 101
Quote 15: "After putting her finger in her mouth, with many ungracious refusals to answer good Mr. Wilson's questions, the child finally announced that she had not been made at all, but had been plucked by her mother off the bush of wild roses that grew by the prison-door." Chapter 8, pg. 103
Quote 16: "'Speak thou for me!' cried she. 'Thou wast my pastor, and hadst charge of my soul, and knowest me better than these men can. I will not lose the child! Speak for me! Thou knowest, - for thou hast sympathies which these men lack! - thou knowest what is in my heart, and what are a mother's rights, and how much the stronger they are, when that mother has but her child and the scarlet letter! Look thou to it! I will not lose the child! Look to it!'" Chapter 8, pg. 104
Quote 17: "Roger Chillingworth - the man of skill, the kind and friendly physician - strove to go deep into his patient's bosom, delving among his principles, prying into his recollections, and probing everything with a cautious touch, like a treasure-seeker in a dark cavern. Few secrets can escape an investigator, who has opportunity and license to undertake such a quest, and skill to follow it up. A man burdened with a secret should especially avoid the intimacy of his physician." Chapter 9, pg. 114
Quote 18: "Trusting no man as his friend, he could not recognize his enemy when the latter actually appeared." Chapter 10, pg. 120
Quote 19: "'Even in the graveyard here at hand....They are new to me. I found them growing on a grave, which bore no tombstone, nor other memorial of the dead man, save these ugly weeds, that have taken upon themselves to keep him in remembrance. They grew out of his heart, and typify, it may be, some hideous secret that was buried with him, and which he had done better to confess during his lifetime.' 'Perchance,' said Mr. Dimmesdale, 'he earnestly desired it, but could not.'" Chapter 10, pg. 120
Quote 20: "Come away, mother! Come away, or yonder old Black Man will catch you! He hath got hold of the minister already. Come away, mother, or he will catch you! But he cannot catch little Pearl!" Chapter 10, pg. 123
Quote 21: "But, if it be the soul's disease, then do I commit myself to the one Physician of the soul!...But who are thou, that meddlest in this matter? - that dares thrust himself between the sufferer and his God?" Chapter 10, pp. 125-6
Quote 22: "But with what a wild look of wonder, job, and horror! With what a ghastly rapture....making itself even riotously manifest by the extravagant gesture with which he threw up his arms towards the ceiling, and stamped his foot upon the floor! Had a man seen old Roger Chillingworth, at that moment of his ecstasy, he would have had no need to ask how Satan comports himself when a precious human soul is lost to heaven, and won into his kingdom." Chapter 10, pg. 127
Quote 23: "a quiet depth of malice, hitherto latent, but active now...which led him to imagine a more intimate revenge than any mortal had ever wreaked upon an enemy." Chapter 11, pg. 128
Quote 24: "To the untrue man, the whole universe is false,- it is impalpable,- it shrinks to nothing within his grasp....The only truth that continued to give Mr. Dimmesdale a real existence on this earth was the anguish in his inmost soul" Chapter 11, pg. 134
Quote 25: "Come up hither, Hester, thou and little Pearl....Ye have both been here before, but I was not with you. Come up hither once again, and we will stand all three together!" Chapter 12, pg. 140
Quote 26: "Satan dropped it there, I take it, intending a scurrilous jest against your reverence. But, indeed, he was blind and foolish, as he ever and always is. A pure hand needs no glove to cover it!" Chapter 12, pg. 145
Quote 27: "...which we interpret to stand for Angel. For as our good Governor Winthrop was made an angel this past night, it was doubtless held fit that there should be some notice thereof." Chapter 12, pg. 145
Quote 28: "[M]any people refused to interpret the scarlet A by its original signification. They said that it meant Able; so strong was Hester Prynne, with a woman's strength." Chapter 13, pg. 148
Quote 29: "All the light and graceful foliage of her character had been withered up by this red-hot brand, and had long ago fallen away, leaving a bare and harsh outline, which might have been repulsive, had she possessed friends or companions to be repelled by it." Chapter 13, pp. 149-50
Quote 30: "[T]here seemed to be no longer anything in Hester's face for Love to dwell upon" Chapter 13, pg. 150
Quote 31: "It is remarkable that persons who speculate the most boldly often conform with the most perfect quietude to the external regulations of society." Chapter 13, pg. 151
Quote 32: "It lies not in the pleasure of the magistrates to take off this badge....Were I worthy to be quit of it, it would fall away of its own nature, or be transformed into something that should speak a different purport." Chapter 14, pg. 155
Quote 33: "'I have already told thee what I am! Fiend! Who made me so?' 'It was myself!' cried Hester, shuddering. 'It was I, not less than he. Why has thou not avenged thyself on me?' 'I have left thee to the scarlet letter,' replied Roger Chillingworth. 'If that have not avenged me, I can do no more!' He laid his finger on it, with a smile. 'It has avenged thee!' answered Hester Prynne." Chapter 14, pg. 158
Quote 34: "'Truly do I!' Answered Pearl, looking brightly into her mother's face. 'It is for the same reason that the minister keeps his hand over his heart!'" Chapter 15, pg. 166
Quote 35: "'Mother,' said litter Pearl, 'the sunshine does not love you. It runs away and hides itself, because it is afraid of something on your bosom. Now see! There it is, playing a good way off. Stand you here, and let me run and catch it. I am but a child. It will not flee from me, for I wear nothing on my bosom yet!' 'Nor ever will, my child, I hope,' said Hester. 'And why not, mother?' asked Pearl, stopping short, just at the beginning of her race. 'Will not it come of its own accord, when I am a woman grown?' 'Run away, child,' answered her mother, 'and catch the sunshine! It will soon be gone.'" Chapter 16, pg. 168
Quote 36: "'But mother, tell me now! Is there such a Black Man? And didst thou ever meet him? And is this his mark?'....'Once in my life I met the Black Man!' said her mother. 'This scarlet letter is his mark!'" Chapter 16, pg. 170

Why did I not understand? O Hester Prynne, thou little, little knowest all the horror of this thing! And the shame! - the indelicacy! - the horrible ugliness of this exposure of a sick and guilty heart to the very eye that would gloat over it! Woman, woman, thou art accountable for this! I cannot forgive thee!'" Chapter 17, pg. 178
Quote 40: "There played around her mouth, and beamed out of her eyes, a radiant and tender smile, that seemed gushing form the very heart of womanhood. A crimson flush was glowing on her cheek, that had been long so pale." Chapter 18, pg. 185

Quote 44: "'What a strange, sad man is he!' said the child, as if speaking partly to herself. 'In the dark night-time he calls us to him, and holds thy hand and mine, as when we stood with him on the scaffold yonder. And in the deep forest, where only the old trees can hear, and the strip of sky see it, he talks with thee, sitting on a heap of moss! And he kisses my forehead, too, so that the little brook would hardly wash it off! But here, in the sunny day, and among all the people, he knows us not; nor must we know him! A strange, sad man is he, with his hand always over his heart!'" Chapter 21, pg. 209
Quote 45: "There was no feebleness of step, as at other times; his frame was not bent; nor did his hand rest ominously upon his heart.

Quote 49: "The glow, which they had just before beheld burning on his cheek, was extinguished, like a flame that sinks down hopelessly among the late-decaying embers.

The great scene of grief, in which the wild infant bore a party, had developed all her sympathies; and as her tears fell upon her father's cheek, they were the pledge that she would grow up amid human joy and sorrow, nor forever do battle with the world, but be a woman in it.

Quote 56: "a new grave was delved, near an old and sunken one, in that burial-ground beside which King's Chapel has since been built. It was near that old and sunken grave, yet with a space between, as if the dust of the two sleepers had no right to mingle. Yet one tombstone served for both." Chapter 24, pg. 239

I've been told I have a really odd taste in music. I'm just curios {sorry, I can't spell}, what kind of music do I like if I listen to: Fuel, Matchbox 20, Our Lady Peace, Weezer, Verical Horizions, Switchfoot, Poe, Savage Garden, Incubus, and Foo Fighters. But I like their old stuff the best, their new stuff sucks!
~ace
There's nothing wrong with those. You like all sorts of different types of music. Same here. Just ignore them. You have different tastes- big deal!

Ok, skip the whole. "oh my god, you are so stupid for breaking his heart" stuff. I just need help, I know what I did was wrong.
Ok, first off. I'm trying to get my ex back. I dumped him for another guy, who turned out to be an ass, and i realized what i did was wrong. i miss him a lot and i would do anything to have him back. I have talked to him about this before and he said it was not going to work out. since then we have been good friends, but now im starting to like him again, and he knows. he told me to call him on december 23rd when he gets new minutes on his phone so we can talk about it and i can tell him why i want him back so badly. he is afraid to get back together because he doesn't want me to break his heart again, and i swore on my life i wouldnt. because i won't. i just really miss him and like i dont know if he wants me back or not. im not afraid to call him, just afraid that its going to be a blunt "NO" answer. but why would he make me wait that long for a simple "NO"?
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. thank you! i give 5s if anyone helps me.
I can understand why you're afraid he's going to make you wait that long, if the answer is no. Maybe he still has feelings for you- but he just doesn't want to be hurt again. The easy way to go is to tell him that if he gives you another chance- you can then PROVE to him that you won't break his heart. If he still says no or says he's still afraid or whatever- you need to just talk and become even BETTER friends so he can earn your trust back.
Hope I helped!

No, i don't think it would freak him out. But don't leave it annoymously. or however you spell it. Leave him 3 hints about who YOU are- along with the present. the hints could include- hair color, if you have classes with him, etc.

Me and my bf were out on the town the other night. We met up with some other of our friends. Well my bf left for a couple minutes to pay for our drinks. This other friend of ours who is married came up to me. He said " you are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen". Well I looked at him with my eyes wide and then he said "as a friend", but I know he was seriously attracted to me by the look in his eyes.
I didnt really know what to say. I was flattered but felt guilty because his wife was sitting at another table. I know she couldnt hear and I think he waited on purpose to get me alone.
Now I don't know how to act around this guy. I told my bf and he was really pissed off. I told him not to say anything because i was worried this other guy and his wife might have a fight.
What should i do?
Depending on you and this married guy's wife. If you and his wife are friends- tell her. She might be mad at first- but she'll thank you in the end. Avoid this married guy as much as possible. Tell your boyfriend you are worried about it and see what he tells you to do.

Regards,
First of all, let me clear a thing... I'm fairly in the air... I had passed a hard day and for now, I'm exteremly confused, like i have never been before... I just need some help, adivse or anything that could be any of help...
My story begins from two months ago. when I actually decided to start a new PLP type relationship with a girl in my university for the first time in my life... we both are studying electronics engineering. I just have two term to finish the
lessons, while she has 4 terms to go... I dont know if these informations do any help, but in any way, I'm trying to be precise here...
Before this, I had absolutely no idea in dating with girls. I had never speaked with someone because of my FEELINGs. so when I came to this situation, I started to read some books. I learned a lot of things, but the most interesting, yet frightening part of them was the sentence " Hunters, Move FAST !!"... it becames the QUEEN of my mind...
I started some basics like intense gaze, making eye contact, giving a nod, doing body language, and sometimes, a very short smile... I was unexperienced, but I think that I was doing fine... she usually returned my gaze with a one second look and when I turned back and looked around, she did the same... after following this routine for a month or so, I decided to make the first conversation. I had nothing special to say, but I just wanted to let her know that I'm interested in her. I was still frightened from that sentence, you know... and that caused a lot of trouble.
One day, all of a sudden, I walked beside her in the corridor ( she was walking with one of her friends ) and asked her to listen to my words for a minute. she stoped walking and looked into my eyes. I become blind. i lost my words and started to say bunkum. I told her that I want to say something, but I can't. because it's a little bit hard for me for the first time... she looked again into my eyes and when she was leaving, she said that "it's not necessary to say anything"... i become fed up.
I had her phone number from before. so I wrote an sms and told her how much I love her... I told that this was all the things that I wanted to tell her in the first approach. but there was no reply.
after a week or so, I wrote another sms. romantic and warm. I wrote that I want to give it another try and I asked for her approval. this time, my sms didn't remained unanswered. she replied, but what a reply. she said that i must stop acting like this... she said that she is not interested AT ALL, and my previous SMS has no value for her. she also asked me to stop sending another sms... well, as I know myself, I don't give up easily. but this time, i felt that it's better to finish the game with one last try. i wrote another sms and I said that i feel sorry for acting unseasoned. i also wrote that if she give no answer, I assume the game finished. easy to guess. NO REPLY.
I did what i said. I started to forget all the things we left behind. but I couldn't resolve one thing... if she was not interested AT ALL, why she returned my gazes ? why she flipped for me, when standing a few meters away ? why she was always in my sight, wherever i was ? why she was doing womanish body language all the time ? in class, in yard, in everywhere ?
I couldn't figure that out. so after a month, I sent her another sms. I didn't act like before. I didn't give out my power. I wrote that I must speak with her. I told that the way how we do this is not important. I just want to say some untold and nothing more or less. 3 days after sending this unanswered sms, we participated in an common class. when the class has been finished, there were 6 person remaining in the class. me and 2 friends of mine, and she, and 2 friends of her... the situation was not suitable. so I left the class. but she remained. I stayed beside the class for almost 30 minute. but she didn't came out. so I assumed this as a passport and entered the class...She was sitting alone !! I started up with some ordinary words,but I felt that she's not interested at all. so i did a trick. I asked her that what I should do for now ? I asked this with smile. I tried to be funny and cooky. fortunately she looked at me and said "what ?" she apparently couldn't hide her smile... and we started a long talk... in the middle of conversation, she said that she doesn't want to become friend with a boy. I replied asap, "but I didn't asked you that". she smiled. I continued " what if I ask you to help me on a project?" and she replied with smile " I never ever participate on a project with a boy"... after a minute or two, I asked her if this is a type of one-way love and she said that "There is no DOUBT"... I gazed at her and asked the same thing again. she looked down and said nothing... in the end, she said that I better forget all the things. I asked her for a logical reason, but she had nothing to say. she just called it "something Personal". and we ends up like this... I said goodbye and left the class...
Now, I don't understand. what all this means ? is she still examining me ? Do I did something wrong ? do I have to forget all the things ? should I continue the same things again and again and again ? I'm pretty confused...
Please excuse my bad english. I'm just looking for an advise. I have never wrote a novel like this...
Thanks for all your generosity and attention in advance.
WOW. long story. no offense. if we girls smile at boys- it could mean either one of two things. we admire them or we think of them as just friends. Don't keep pestering her with notes/letters/etc. Give her some space, if she begins to show up wherever you are- she's somewhat interested. But if she avoids you all the same- she just needs some space.
