Hi, my names Melanie.
I'm fifteen years old.
I love fashion, hanging out with my friends,
and drawing and writing along with a bunch of other stuff.
I used to have an old account here that was quite known for awhile,
but I sort of just lost touch with it,
so I decided to make a new one.
I'll try and help you the best I can,
just hopefully I didn't lose touch with my good advice, haha.
And feel free to IM me with your problem too.
I also put my myspace in a link down below,

hi!well my question is.....I like this boy.He is really cute and hes nice.Every time I get out of school he always looks at my friend.And he even asked her out like 5 times.What should i do?
-Confused (link)
|
Well, there's really nothing you CAN do, if he likes your friend, he likes your friend. You can never try and make a guy like you.
The most you can really do is just stick around, hang out with him, be there for him, and show him what a great person you are, and if he still doesnt' ask you out, it's his loss.
I hope I helped.

My mom found out how to read my AIM conversations. I feel this is a violation of my privacy but she doesn't care. How can she do this and how can I stop her? (link)
|
The only way I know of how to read old conversations is if your mother has downloaded DEAD AIM, which is a program where you can bring up old conversations people have had. I would suggest going through your computer's documents and see if there's any programs called DEAD AIM or anything that says anything about AIM that has nothing to do with installing it.
I would also suggest sitting down with your mother, and tell her you understand her concern and everything because she's your parent, but it's a total invasion of your privacy and you're completley uncomfortable with it and you deserve at least SOME ounce of privacy to yourself. And what if your friends were to be telling you something private, they wouldn't want your mother reading it.
I hope I helped.

One of my friends told me that when she was 18 she was in an 'intimate relationship' with a 15 yr old boy. They were both teenagers, and both in high school at the time. However I am wondering if it is still illegal because technically she was an adult at the time and he was still underage.
Also, I would like to know what exactly the law says about this kind of thing. I am a 21 yr old woman, would a relationship with a boy that young be illegal? I am in Ohio by the way if it makes any difference.
Thanks. (link)
|
Well here is a site about the legal age of consent in Ohio:
http://moraloutrage.net/staticpages/index.php?page=Ohio
It basically says people under 18 years of age cannot, so if you were to yes, it would be illegal and would probably be considered statutory rape (sp). If he and her were to just date and kiss and such, that'd have been completely legal and fine, but once you have sex, no.
So if you were 21 and to have sex with a boy that young, yes it would be illegal.
I hope I helped.

I am directing freshman in highschool in a play. In one part the prince is supposed to say "i want to see how light you are:" & pick up the princess and hold her for a number of lines. i guess some of the other boys were making fun of the princess while we were discussing this because in relaity the princess may be a little heavier then the prince (she is NOT fat, the prince just happens to be tall & lanky and not as big as her). i then recieved an e-mail from the girls mom that she came home from rehersal visably upset. she said her daughter did not know she was e-mailing me & that she doesn't want me to tlak to the boy individually, but she wants me to monitor the behavior. she said i could call her at any time if i needed to. first off, how should i go about having the prince hold the princess, how should i shut the boys up who are being mean without embassing the princess even more, and do you think it's appropriate that i call the mom (and what should i say to her if i do?) she left me her house phone # but i am afraid that the girl who is my princess would pick up the phone & know it's me from caller ID, & the mom doesn't want me to know she contacted me. what should i do about all this? (link)
|
Well, whenever the rehearsal is going on, like the mother said just monitor the behavior and make sure the kids are behaving well. Whenever they start to make fun of her, just tell them,"Alright guys, enough. Back to the script." Or,"_____, start off at scene 1, ok?" And have them continue rehearsing, whatever part you guys left off at, so less focus on her, and more focusing on the part.
Also, there is still always email if you need to contact the mother, so you can always just continue doing that or email her again and ask her if she instead has a cellphone number where you can contact her cause you're afraid her daughter'll recoginize the number.
If you find just going back to a scene and having them rehearse still isn't working, then you should call the mother and let her know and try and talk over a new plan of what you guys can possibly do, because you or her mother may really need to have a talk with the boys, or at least contact their mothers and have them talk to them.
Or maybe even her mother should talk to her daughter about it privately, and maybe even have you come over as well. And just let her know, she is definetely not fat, and boys are just immature and she's better than them and shouldn't listen to a thing they have to say. And also let her know, whenever they start to do this, just think,"It's not ME, it's HIM! He's as skinny as a stick!"
I hope I helped.

Ok someone please help. I'm in this play and at one point I'm supposed to lose my voice. My director told me to scream for a few minutes, but that's not working. Is there any other way to help "lose your voice"?? Please help!! (link)
|
Oh, I wouldn't try to scream for a few minutes at all and make yourself lose your voice. For one, like you said that rarely even works unless you're screaming at like a concert or something, and for the fact, that's probably damaging your throat.
I would suggest just keep practicing controling your voice and hold back your voice whenever you're talking, and make it sound lower and a little raspier. Basically, like you're whispering in a way.
I hope I helped.

i really want to be a photographer when i get older. how can i like practice to be one? (link)
|
I am trying to pursue the same career myself, so what I've just been doing is I've purchased a camera and I just walk around the neighborhood or wherever and I take my camera with me wherever I go and whenever I see a good photo opportunity, I take a shot and upload it onto my computer later. I've also created a photography account on Photobucket so I can sort of view all my pictures that I've taken at once and delete the ones I don't want, and keep the ones I do.
Also, I've joined photography class and am taking advanced photography during the next half of the year to learn more on cameras and different ways to work with teh camera and take even possibly better pictures.
Like the other advicenator said below, maybe even think about joining the year book because you're always having to take pictures of things, and it'll also be good on your college application if you're trying to get into an arts major at the college or take a photography class of some sort.
I hope I helped.

ok im 13 and im in middle school and there is this kid who is ubsesed with me and he has told me i want to have "IT" whith u!
im not redy for that im 13 yo soo what should i do? im scard he will bad mouth about me if i dont and if i do he will tell everyone and then ill be called a slut so what should i do? :( (link)
|
Don't have sex with him! You'll regret it for the rest of your life, what are you going to tell people? Your first time was with some guy who was going to bad mouth you that you didn't even like? You should save it for someone who you really love.
If he does start to bad mouth you, just give him the response,"You're just mad because I'm not your first like you wanted me to be." And let people know of the situation so whenever he says it to people, they can just ignore him and everything he has to say.
Just talk to him about it too. Let him know you're only 13 and you don't want to and aren't ready to have sex. And you're not interested in him like that, and you want your first to be with someone special, and you're sorry.
I hope I helped.

Well there is this guy at school that I really like. First of all, Im not sure if he likes me. He like waits for me to walk with him after class and stuff and he talks to me alot, But i know if he did like me he would never ask me out because last year I said no when he asked me out. But last year I was a loser and was trying to be popular and stuff (girls you know how that goes...) but this year im just bein myself. Anyhow, the second thing is, everyone would TOTALly make fun of me if I went out with him. I know that shouldnt hold me back from him, but seriously. Every single person at school would make fun of me for like years. Anyways, what im really trying to ask is What am I supposed to do? How can I hint to him that I like him? and What should I do about people making fun of me? By the way im in ninth grade. (link)
|
Well first of all, I want you to re-read what you just said. ..."but this year im just bein myself." If you're just going to be yourself like you have been, then you shouldn't have to worry about people making fun of you. You're just being yourself, dating a guy who is being himself. And people might not make fun of you, you never know. If they really were your friend and liked you, then they wouldn't sit there making fun of someone you're interested in. And maybe even invite him to hang out with you and people to show them what a great guy he is and everything. People tend to make fun of people they don't know, and that's dumb.
And plus, you're in ninteh grade. People are always going make fun of you or someone else no matter what happens. People backstab, people lie, people treat others badly, but if you do have this guy to talk to and have fun with after all of it, it sounds like it's worth it to me. And just think of this ; are you REALLY going to let some immature 9th graders who you won't even probably see next year in school ( since classes REALLY split people up ) let you not be happy with someone?
To hint to him, just flirt with him a little more each and every day and compliment him and make him feel good about himself and give him a little more attention then you do other people ; it'll make him feel special. Then someday just go out with him somewhere and spend an awseome day together and flirt and everything, and as the day ends, let him know how you feel about him. Just explain to him,"Last year whenever you asked me out, and I said no, I was being pretty dumb. I was going through one of those phases where I just wanted to sit there and be popular and everything, and I wasn't focusing on anything but that. Now, I don't care about being popular anymore and I've had time to realize that I really do like you, _____. I don't know how you feel about me, but I just thought I should let you know cause if I didn't tell you know, I never would've. And if you have moved on and don't feel the same way, I really hope we can remain friends because I don't want me letting you know this to ruin it."
I hope I helped.

I like this guy in school, lets call him Jonny. I am 75% sure that he likes me back but i am not sure. I dont want to ask him out and have him say no because I will be really embaressed. The thing is I have knwon this kid since like 3rd grade and we are best friends and another reason is if I ask him out and he says no i will not only be embaressed but it might ruin our friendship. I guess I am asking how can I go out w/ him w/o embaressing myself or having him say no.

Well, there really is no exact way to make him not say no to you if you ask him out.
I would suggest just hanging out with him one day, all day, doing whatever it is he wants to do. Go see a movie and go out to dinner or go to the amusment park and just flirt with him and have a great time and show him the great person you are and how great you'd be as a girlfriend.
Then as the night is coming to an end, just ask him if he had a great time, and when he says yes, tell him he deserves a great time, and let him know you've done this whole thing for a reason. And just let him know of your feelings for him. Just be like,"____, I really like you alot. Now I'm not sure how you feel about me, but I just needed to let you know cause if I don't say it now, I probably never will. And if you don't feel the same, I really hope we can just remain friends, cause I would rather be your best friend then nothing at all and I wouldn't want to lose you over this."
If he says yes, then great! I mean you're already 75% sure he likes you, which is more than half of a chance already!
If he does say no, it might be a little akward at first, but if you keep focusing on remaining friends and work at it hard enough and keep it from becoming awkward, then you should be able to slip out of that awkward phase gracefully. If you don't make it awkward, then it won't become awkward.
I hope I helped, and I hope he likes you back!

haha well i need help well my x boyfriend and i broke up in may.. well we went out for only a week.. and i found out that it was just a bet.. and then after that he went to a-school and he came back and now he's in my history class.. and he writes me notes now and i write him notes.. and im not sure if he likes me and im not sure if he's going to homecoming he said he didn't want to but yeah (link)
|
He might possibly like you, but would you really want to go out with a guy who only dated you in the first place because of a bet?
Also, you never know he could possibly be doing it again. He might've made another bet you might've been "stupid" enough to go out with him again or something. I would be really careful about this one.
And has he even apologized for doing that to you? Cause if he hasn't he already sounds like a jerk to me, and I especially wouldn't even think of dating him yet if he hasn't even apologized for turning you into some sort of bet. So if you really want my opinion, I wouldn't even try and give this guy another chance to go out with you, you totally deserve someone better.
If you really want to see what it's all about though, because I can't really tell you what to do that was just my opinion, then I suggest continue talking to him and seeing where it takes off. And even though he doesn't want to go to homecoming ( most guys don't ), try talking to him about it. Let him know after talking to him all this time, you think he's cool and you'd really like to go to homecoming with him, you think it'd be alot of fun.
But like I said, I suggest you be real careful about this and make sure this isn't another stupid bet and that he really likes you and is really sorry about what he did to you, and he realizes he was a jerk.
I hope I helped.

Hi. I'm fifteen years old and i'm a female. I've had my naval pierced for about a year now, and I have my ears pierced twice in both ears. Now however, i'm wanting to get my tongue pierced. I've been wanting it done for about 3 months now, and i've done my research. I know the positives, the negatives, and all the care needed. I've done so well with all my other piercings, and I know I can take care of my tongue if I get it pierced. The problem is, my mom won't allow it. I don't understand why? She was ok with all of my other piercings and I don't understand why this one is any different. My question is, what makes this piercing any different, and what can I say to her to make her change her mind?
Thank you all in advance. (link)
|
Well first of all, I'm glad you did all your research and are aware of all the pros and cons of getting it done, because most people tend to just go to the place, get it done, and then question why it's getting infected or what.
Your mother just might not be comfortable with her daughter getting it done because sometimes it can be found as a trashy kind of piercing. I also went to a site and found this:
"Excessive drooling
Infection
Chipped and cracked teeth
Pain
Injuries to the gums
Swelling of tongue
Damage to fillings
Extreme swelling that can block airway
Increased salivary flow
Hypersensitivity to metals
Scar tissue
Nerve damage
Risk of endocarditis,
an inflammation of the heart valves
Can interfere with chewing
A "numb" tongue - temporary or permanent Can interfere with speech
Impaired sense of taste
Blood loss
Touching the mouth jewelry can introduce infection Jewelry can be swallowed, which can
puncture intestine or bowel
Damage to teeth and gums can lead to need for
dental reconstruction, which can be expensive Gum recession
Possible allergic response to metals used in piercing
Jewelry can block x-rays
Jewelry needs constant attention and upkeep "
so your mother could be very worried about all the possible bad effects that could happen to you because the tongue can probably get easily effected by these things and also there's so many nerves in your toungue that if not done right, it can create nerve damage to your tongue.
I would sit down and talk to her about it and ask her yourself why she exactly doesn't want you to get it done. Better to get it from the source, I say. And then talk to her about it. Let her know you've done all the research, you'll take care of it, ( if it's cause of money ) you'll pay for it, and you're responsible and mature enough to handle a tongue piercing and you'll handle the consquences of there be any.
If she still says no, I would just have to respect her decision then, and wait until you're old enough to get one on your own. I wouldn't suggest doing it behind her back, cause believe me, she'll find out, all trust'll be lost, and you'll be in a big load of trouble and you'll probably not be allowed to get anything else done or do anything.
Maybe even take her to the place where you're thinking about getting it done and have the people who work there talk to her about it, and explain the step-by-step process of how everything's done so she can hear from a professional herself that it's okay to get it done and everything.
I hope I helped.

my sister is a bitch...she's 10 and i'm 14 my parents always pick her side and like her better they say they don't but they do...all of them are being bitchy...my sister makes stupid and unneeded remarks..like if i do something she says you better and it makes me mad because she does it all the time and she even hits me and scratches me...and goes and tells i started it then my parents get mad at me be cause they think i started it and i hit her....and then i show the scratches and hits she does to me they don't say anything...it bothers the crap out of me..i can't stand it...wat can i do to make my sister stop!! (link)

Parents always tend to do this. Parents always tend to favor the baby child more and sometimes they don't even realize it. It's just because she's the young one, the cute one, the funny one, whatever and of course they're going to pick her side. Being the older kid sucks, doesn't it?
I would just start to ignore your sister and hopefully she'll get the hint you're not being bothered by her and she'll back off. But if she continues to hit you, just hold her hands or block yourself from her so she can't and immediately then take her with you to your parents and explain to them what just happened. That way the hits are "fresh" if that's how you want to say it, adn you're sitting there holding her arms in the way she was hitting you, which is proof. If they don't believe you still, they're nuts.
Also just talk to them about it whenever your sister's not near and explain to them what's going on. Tell them you do not hit her at all, and look at all the marks on your arms. It's not like you're purposely hurting yourself just to get a 10 year old girl in trouble. Let them know that you feel like you're the less favorite and how it hurts whenever they instantly take your sister's side every single time. Just tell them you're not trying to cause trouble here for everyone, just whenever you come to them whenever your sister's hitting you, for them to ask her to please stop it and take control of the situation.
I hope I helped.

this is a long on so hold tight, i have a friends lets call her crystal. she and i have been best friends with eachother since the fourth grade. we also have annother friend i geuss we could call her tonya. she has been all over crystal and i's case for so long and now it's led to fighting with eachother everyday. i rele wanto be friends with tonya but she always gets in the way. she is too insensitive and she ignores every issue that comes along. what should i do??? (link)
|
Well, I sort of had a problem like this around a month ago. I tried being friends with this girl who hangs around with my friends sometimes, but she never really tried to become my friend and sort of ignored everything I would say and just talked to my friends and so, I just backed off from her.
Whenever me and my friends would hang out, I would just invite us and not her and whenever my friends wanted to hang out with her, they could on their own time. That way there's no awkwardness and no fighting. Crystal just has to understand that you've tried to get along with her, it's just not working out and you don't have to be friends with all her friends, just like she doesn't have to with yours.
So just hang out with Crystal whenever you can, and Tonya and her can hang out whenever they want to so that way everyone's fine and they get to be friends with whoever they want to be friends with.
You could also try giving it one last chance with Tonya and talk to her about it. Ask her why doesn't she want to be friends with you, or at least make an effort to? You think it'd be alot of fun if you, her and Crystal all hung out together and all the fighting and drama is becoming really stupid and you just want everybody to get along. If Tonya doesn't want to talk about it or try and resolve it, then she's immature and like I said, just back off of her and just leave it alone. You tried.
I hope I helped.

I have to do a history project in a group. There are three other people in my group, and two of them are horrible. Not only do they not do any work, their fooling around is totally distracting. The project is due soon and I'm going insane. Any advice on what to do? (link)
|
Haha, I've had this EXACT problem before, and I'll tell you what I did and it worked.
Since they're distracting, I would just take the project home and work on it all by yourself and so nobody's distracting you adn you can really focus on it and get it done quicker and be more organized about it.
Then, just put your name on it and in the morning before the projects are due in class, go to the teacher and explain to him/her the situation and how your two partners didn't do anything on the project and ask them if you could just be an individual project then because you've worked so hard on it. ( If there is any, maybe bring somebody from class to act as a sort of witness who can tell the teacher they've seen you working on it, and not the other two ).
If the two partners get mad, just tell them it's not your fault they were too busy with eachother to work on this project. Why should they both get a good grade on something they didn't even do?
I hope I helped.

Hello.
So im 14/f, and in the 9th grade.
So I have this boyfriend right, his name is Joey.
Then there's these 2 other guys, Ian and Tim that I like, a lot.
Well, Joey is like in LOVE with me, and it's pretty annoying at times.
Well Ian is just, I don't know, theres something about him that I absoutly love, and want and hes sooo hot..
And with Tim, hes just so funny, hes not that cute though.
Well I know with relationships, personality matters the most, but looks are a huge plus.
Now to the real problem...
I really like Ian, and i've been talking to him on the side. And like Joey hates Ian, and I have no idea what to do... Me and Joey argue all the time. And I have no idea what to do, so please help, if you were in my position who would you go out with ???
Please answer fast !!
Thanks in advance.
-Brittany

|
Well first of all, I would break up or just take break from Joey for awhile. If you two are fighting all the time, and you're sitting there liking other guys, you two aren't having a very healthy relationship at the moment and you shouldn't be looking at other girls while you have a boyfriend.
Anyway.
But just explain to him that things are really messed up between you two right now and you like him and all, but you're just sick of all the fighting and you want to take a break for awhile and you two should think of your feelings for one another.
Then, take a chance with Ian, and see what happens. If he's worth staying with, then stay with him, and I'm sure Joey'll get the message that you've moved on if you don't talk about getting back together with him. If he asks about it, just explain to him you're sorry, but Ian just came along and you guys sort of clicked, but you hope the two of you can remain good friends.
And if looks are a plus for you, then I wouldn't suggest going for Tim then, if you're not pyshically attracted to him and you're going to just keep thinking about his looks. Plus, you see more attracted to Ian and Joey anyways. And Tim kind of sounds just like a real funny hang out friend, if you ask me.
But if nothing works out with Ian, wait awhile and just start talking to Joey again about where you see the relationship is going and how you miss him and want to try and give it all another shot and see if he'll take you back or not. If he really loves you, he will and you both really need to work on everything and be really commited towards eachother.
I hope I helped.

Hey i have aim 5.9 but whenever oi go away i never go idol like no matter how long im away.... i could be away 16 hours and it still doesnt go faded??? what can i so i can go idol or whta am i doing wrong+?!?!?! (link)
|
Ha you're doing nothing wrong, you just might've not edited your AIM settings.
All you have to do is go to "MY AIM", "EDIT OPTIONS", and then "EDIT PREFERENCES". Then you just go to PRIVACY, and then you see the blocking part and the who can contact you boxes? Well, just look right under there, and the little title thing should say, "Allow users to see..." and then just check the box that says "...how long i've been idle" next to it, and then just click apply and then it should work.
I hope I helped.

How much every day should a boyfriend and girlfriend talk on the phone? We go to different schools but live 10 minutes away. We're 16.
Thank you. =) (link)
|
Well there's no REAL amount of time a girlfriend and a boyfriend have to talk every day, so it's really your choice on how much you want to talk and how much you have to say and everything.
You could talk 10 minutes or 10 hours, haha. :)
But if you guys barely have time to talk becaues you're living busy schedules or so, find a certain time during the day where you guys can talk for a good while and everything. And also, if you two only live 10 minutes away, try and find more time to visit eachother.
But if you have a busy schedule, maybe do "school, talk to him on the phone on the ride/drive/walk home, and then go do whatever, eat dinner, then talk to him before you do homework, possibly call him back again and then go to bed." Also, if you two are 16, if one of you guys are able to drive at all, since you guys don't seem THAT far away from eachother, maybe one of you guys can drive to the other's school and pick them up and drive them home, which'll give you guys more time to talk to eachother.
Just whenever you do talk, remind eachother you miss eachother and really wish you could talk ( if you have to get off the phone ) and let eachother know you hope the other's having a great day and everything, so you guys can remind eachother how much you guys care for another and then you guys can think of that whenever you're NOT talking on the phone.
I hope I helped.

Ive also considered peircing it w/out them knowing, but they r kinda strict and im scared! I NEED SOME SERIOUS ADVICE!!!! thankx everyone!

First of all, I highly suggest not doing it anyway. This'll only cause your parents to be upset, and they might not trust you as much anymore and they might not let you get anything else you want done or do anything. Because believe me, they'll find out sooner or later. I mean at first kids are usually alert whenever it comes to their new piercing and hiding it, but after awhile they forget they have it and you might accidentally do something and they notice it. Plus, depending on the shirt you're wearing, it's not the hard to notice your kid has a little bump on their stomach.
I would suggest waiting until you're a little older and you can show your parents you're more responsible, mature, and more able to handle having your belly button pierced. And then talk about it with them then, and maybe they'll trust you more and feel more comfortable with your waiting and they'll let you get it done.
Also, they're probably just worried about the actuall process of their daughter getting this little thing through her belly button, and could be worried about the consequences. If you want to read this, this girl talks about the problems with hers:
http://www.bmezine.com/pierce/07-navel/A60524/navmyfir.html
A few of my friends also have theirs done, and they always freak out if anyone pokes their stomach cause it'll hurt or if they lay down the wrong way, it might get ripped out or infected and it just seems like a huge hassle to me, but that's just my opinion.
So first of all, I just suggest thinking about if you're totally postiive you want one in the first place, and then go to your parents and discuss it with them and ask why they exactly aren't comfortable with you wanting one and show them a list of reasons you found on the internet that ensure getting it done is safe and fine if taken care of properly, which you'll promise you'll do so. If they still say no, then go for the "in a couple of years" thing and ask them if in a couple of years, you prove you're repsonsible and mature enough to handle, then can you get it done.
I hope I helped.

For some reason, my mom restarted our computer's settings. My log-in thing is now completely new (new background, etc.). But now on iTunes, NONE of the music that I bought is there. Most of the songs that I have bought are on my iPod right now, but some aren't.
How do I get the songs that I've bought back onto iTunes without buying them again? (link)

Well, there's no real way to just get them back at the drop of a hat, you'll need to download all of the ones you lost over again.
Just download Limewire and download all your music down on there and whenever you're finished, click it all and drag it over to your iTUNES and then plug in your ipod and it should update your ipod and put all the Limewire Tunes in there, and it cost you nothing at all.
I hope I helped.

Whenever I put my hair up [using a hair band] in something like a ponytail, it usually falls down soon after. How do you put your hair up and use your band to make it tight abnd sturdy, and so that it stay for a long period of time? (link)

Well first of all, I suggest buying the bands without that little metal thing in them, cause that'll hurt your hair and it tends to get hair caught in it and mess your hair up. So whenever you go hair band shopping, look for the nice ones without the metal part. I found mine at Claires, but you can probably get them anywhere now.
Also, try to look for one that's not big, but it's not one of those extremely tiny one's either. Because whenever you put them in your hair, they really only go around 2 times in your hair, but if you try and twist it 3 times, then it becomes nice and tight and it doesn't move too well.
You've probably seen them without the metal, but there's also a real thick kind of bands that are pretty good too for keeping your hair nice and tight and keep it from moving:

So like I said, whenever you're in the store, just look for hair bands like those and they're not that expensive, either depending where you go.
I hope I helped.
