cap so I want to ask somebody to the prom but I don't just want to come right out and say hey you do want to go to the prom? So does anybody have some good prom asking ideas? I would like it to be something that will be remembered years later if possible. :-) (link)
In my opinion from what I've seen and experienced girls like it better if you just nut up and ask them in person straightforwardly. The only time I see the whole fancy thing work is if a guy is asking his girlfriend that way. Best of luck and have a good prom.


when a guy texts you saying "i think your very pretty just like your eyes" does he think my eyes are pretty and only my eyes or not my eyes?
HELP
rate 5 for all. (link)
He's making a sincere genuine comment. Read it as such and not more. It's a way to flirt.


ha..well i feel wired doing this but..theres this guy in my on class...hes a grade ahead of me..but i like him so so so much!!.. everytime i see him i get butter flys!..my friend told him i liked him but he didnt respond..and i just wanna stop likeing him because i know ill never get to go out with him..but everything and everyone reminds me of him!!..ahh ineed help idk wat to do??

my advice would be if you wanna forget about him find another boy you like better. you might think nothing can replace him at first but trust me sooner or later someone else who you find attractive will come along. remember the world has no shortage of attractive people but its who you are and what's inside you that makes the difference. plus your young have fun with life and don\'t take anything to seriously.


I know you can't tell me whether or not I'm in love, but I was just wondering what made you know for sure that you loved someone?
I'm only 19, so I feel like I'm not sure that I know what love is. Then again I know people my age who are getting married (crazy, I know). (link)
Remember the key is distinguishing between love and lust. Love from what people told me is a complete no strings attached caring about someone. Putting them first. For young folks it's hard to tell the two apart but you will know. And your young don't rush into things to fast.


i was really good friends with this guy until i started to fancy him a LOT.
i knew he didnt fancy me back cause he kept talking about how he still fancies his ex.
but i just felt like i had to tell him .. so i did.
ever since then we barely talk to eachother. at the beginning we still said hello but now we just completely ignore eachother.
i dont think i can change all that .. it's just that it makes me feel really really bad.. cause i just moved here & he was one of my only friends.. & he seemed to care so much . he always invited me over when i felt homesick etc.... & now its all over.. i thought that i would get over it but i still cry a lot. and its been pretty much half a year now :S
& he also told me that he doesnt fall in love easely & that hes been fancying his ex for 2 years now .. but recently we got this new girl & he keeps checking her out. that really hurts too. i mean he used to check me out & told me im pretty etc..
i dont know i just feel sooo bad about this.
i dont really need help on how to go back to being friends because i dont really see it happening. as i said we barely look at eachother & i've tried to fix everything but it just doesnt work..
a good friend of his told me that i always reacts this way when a girl he doesnt fancy back fancies him. he did the same with another ex of his who is also not over him yet ..
i just wanna get rid of all the pain because i've really fallen for him & i cant seem to get over it. im just sick of crying everytime i'm at a place where we used to hang out or thinking about him all night...
he also sits next to me in philosophie class & it just sucks because he talks to everyone but me.
i just have the feeling that he hates me ..
help?! (link)
The only sure fire way to get over a person is to find someone else you like better. If you think that is impossible trust me on this you will find someone down the road you will like better. It's gonna hurt a first but once you find another person the pain will stop and you will forget the other boy. Taking up a cause that is interesting will aid in this process. Volunteering or playing a sport will make you feel good inside and confident.


So this girl that I really like decided she just wanted to be friends, after talking for like 6 months and it sucks but she still wants us to be close. I have a feeling that she is eying someone else now but the other day she told me she misses me and how close we were. This really threw me off but her statuses on a social site and stuff say can't you see I really want you. and stuff like that and I honestly doubt it's about me. I gonna do something that never seems to work but I'm gonna spill my guts to her hoping this will sway her but I don't know... We've been through so much together, I lost two best friends because of her, one of them who was trying to date her first but then I kind of stole her from him but I thought it was worth it because she's changed my life and she tells me that I've changed her's and I can't see myself with anyone else but her. I can honestly say I need her but do you think she's really worth it? I'm just scared of getting turned down. (link)
First lemme say that from what I've seen from myself and other people that we have less control over who we like than previously thought. It's how you react to these feelings that define who you are. Go ahead with what you planned to do but remember if this girl doesn't work out you will find someone better ahead. More fish in the sea as they say. And lastly don't let a girl come between you and your friends again. It ain't worth it trust me on that.


First of all i would like to say thank you to all those people who told me to stick with my vow, b/c it turns out he was playing me anyway.(God my love life sucks)anyway i had this friend with benefits over the summer who helped me get over some serious greif, and we kinda became attached to each other, he's the only person who knowd my deepest secrets. And we contiuned being friends with benefits until say mid-nov. Recently i found he has a girlfriend and that kinda broke my heart...not tht im not happy for him or anything thats not the case. its just the fact that whenever we were together it was like we were going out...that and people expected me to go out with him. Now, whenever im around him i get a hollow feeling and when hes with his girlfriend(who hates me for being ex-friends with benefits)i want to burst out crying. Question: What am i supposed to do about that heavy chemistry between us?
PS we still hang out and goof off.

The best most efficient way of getting over a crush is to find someone new who you like better. Any other way might work for a little bit but that is the only surefire way to get over someone. You may think that boy was special and irreplaceable but he is not. Plus your young you have so much more time to party and have fun and chase boys. Don't limit yourself and trust me there are other people you will like in the world.


I like this girl, and we talk alot. We hug, but we're just friends. I want to ask her out, but I'm afraid she'll say no. I don't take rejection well. I mean, she might say no, but she might say yes. We are in middle school. I'm in 8th grade and she's in 7th grade. What should I do? (link)
Don't be afraid of rejection just gather up your courage and ask her. Plenty more fish in the sea and you have many more years of girls ahead. They ain't going no where anytime soon. Plus if you don't ask you will always wonder what could have been.


So I am fourteen years old, female, and freshman at my high school. I have never had a boyfriend and I don't even think that any boys have really liked me :| I would love any ideas on how to talk to more boys maybe? Or just getting more attention, different styles maybe? Not to be desperate, but i just feel like all my friends have these great relationships and I'm stuck with nothing.

Please and Thank You!!

MyssLyss:) (link)
Well first and foremost do not seem desperate
or clingy because guys don't dig that. Flirt with a lot of guys and be around them a lot. Keyword is flirt with a lot and different boys not just one or two. We are competitive so that will make you look more desirable. Other than that be yourself and have fun, a guy who likes you for yourself will come along so don't put limits on your choices.


It's been... a month and a half? He's my best friend. See him everyday at school, except now that we are off on winter break. I used to feel horrible, I didn't sleep, eat, and I may have begged him back several times. But, being the good guy that he is, he put up with all of that mess and we have stayed close friends. Sometimes I think I'm over him. It's surprising how much I can tell him and how much advice I have given him about the girl he currently likes. Does all of this mean that I am getting over him? It does sometimes get to me that I miss certain things about the relationship but as a whole I do acknowledge that there were more problems than good. And well, I want him to be happy. But sometimes I forget that he's my ex and I just see my best friend. What do you guys think? (link)
The best way to get over someone is to find someone else that you like better. There ain't no shortage of boys in the world you just gotta look. You can stay friends with him if it doesn't make you sad or angry. Finding a new person will remove the pain though.


okay so i like this kid in my grade && he likes one of my best friends. i dont want to tell her i still like him because she likes him too but she just wants to be friends with bennifts.. should i tell him i like him? (link)
Let your friend have the right of way. There's always more boys but friendships are special and usually last a lot longer.


Alright, so I am an active high school senior currently dating the school soccer star.. Who happens to be a year younger. I have a job but he is so busy with his different soccer teams that he doesn't have time for a job. I am fine with paying fir the occansional movie and whatnot but I can't really afford it I am going to an out if state private college, and that is where my money needs to be focused.
We both love being outside and everytime we hAng out we go to a local park and set up a hammock and just hang out talking. It's fun, but it is also getting to be a bit boring and predictable.
Does anyone have any ideas if a free fun date?

Peace and love :)

Go to a beach or lake if it's nearby. The mall is always free to just hang out. Playing sports in a park is also fun.


I'm 13 and I reallllyy like this guy, more than I've ever liked anyone before. He's all the qualities i want in a bf. Lots of people say he likes me back, but boys are so hard to read! He doesn't send any signals as to if he likes me or not. I can't tell at all. I really like him though and I want to know. What should I do? (link)
Let him come to you. Just flirt with him and his friends, that part is very important. If not theres always more boys out there just relax and have fun with it.


I have liked this one boy for almost 9 months and i'm almost over him. The problem is that my heart doesnt want to let go but my head does. What should I do? (link)
You need to listen to your head on this one. Once you find another boy you like better, trust me you will, the other person will fade away.


I was talking to my exboyfriend on the phone and I mentioned getting back together again,but then this girl "SAMANTHA"showed up and got with her.How can I get him back? (link)
Find another boy u like better. Your ex-bf might see what he missed out on and want you back. However I suggest you just forgot him and find another boy.

ok so im dating a guy who i honestley dont kno if im sstill into but i do kno i like this other guy who i talk to alot and hang out with sometime but i dont think he likes me but i dont want to leave my boyfriend hanging should i break up with him or not? (link)
Well first of all it's not fair to your current boyfriend to have feelings for another guy. Make sure you don't of your position first on both boys before acting. Also known of that go with your heart crap make this choice with your brain.


I find my self asking questions on this site about anything and everything that im feeling just to know that some body out there cares and wants to help. i havent had a girlfriend in 5 years'ish, and the only girls in my life that i have ever wanted to love all have boy friends now. feeling like iv been left behind... maybe im too closed off to people, i used to get bullied as a kid a bit but then i grew up and actually became quite normall with a bunch of a friends and the peopel that used to bully me i have forgivven (kids do stupid stuff and i try not to dwell on the bad things) they have all grown up too now and are quite decent people really when it comes down to it. (not all of them grew up though..) anyway's i guess because of that i spent most of my childhood thinking that i am unwanted among other people besides my family and the few friends i had back then. now im 18 (male) and i guess, beneath the forgiving happy allways smiling face that so many people at college allways like to see me as i guess i am just... lonley as hell, i dont open up to many people and if i do its on the internet because i can be annonymous if i want to be. i try to tell people how i feel but they allways talk to some one else about it, taking today for example i was passing notes to my friend (who's a girl) and the convo wasnt a very interesting one so i wrote somthing about me being a bit horny and why the hormones dont lay off a bit till i get a girlfriend as a joke. its sotmhing that i would share with her because i could trust her... she laughs and reads it out loud in a silent room. i went bright red with sheer shock embarrsesment and anger but as i allways do bottled it in and plugged me self into some heavy metal to burn my anger in somthing creativel'y brutal. i guess while i was getting that off my chest i forgot what my real question was... sorry its a long read, but detailed advice would be greatly appreciated to help me along with this problem i got, thanks.

by the way i dont think my friend got why i was upset and i wouldnt tell her, does she have a right to know? i keep telling my self i dont tell people whats wrong with me because its either not thier problem or i care for them too much to make them unhappy and involved with my problems

thanks (link)
Hang in there buddy it's gonna be alright. It's normal to have this drought in your life it happens to the best of us. Remember it's always darkest before the dawn things will get better. The whole girlfriend thing is overrated just have fun dating and hanging out. One day u gonna meet a great girl that completes your life. As for friends just try your best to be social. If your in college join clubs its a great way to meet folks. As for the aforementioned friend just give it time. A little rest period usually fixes things but try and talk it out. Everybody has a part to play in this world and people do care about you.


basically, a few months ago, i started seeing a guy, who i really, really like. he said all this stuff to me, like how he really liked me, how amazing he thought i was ;/. i went away for a little while, before i went he promised me he would still like me when i came back, funnily enough, i came back and he was going out with somone eles. i buried it and pretended not to care, but felt horrible inside. it had been a while and i hadn't seen him properly, but whenever we spoke on msn, he would either flirt or act really off. a few days ago, i was drunk, and told him i still liked him on msn, he said he didnt know if he liked me like that, but we decided to meet up, even though he was still going out with that girl but he said he was really considering dumping her. i met up with him with my best friend and another guy, to be honest the day was awful and awkward, i just felt completely crap after because i still really liked him. now affter that i find out he added my best friend on msn (who was with us that day), who i love soo much like a sister, and started to tell her how amazing SHE was and how they should meet up. my best friend did the right thing to tell me, but ran away from her in tears, i have no clue whats going on beetween them, i'm too scared to talk to him and i don't want to involve people, i just feel so crappy and like i'm stuck in a huge hole right now, because i really like him :/ please somone, help.x (link)
First of all don't let this situation ruin your friendship. The relationship you have will that girl will last longer and be worth more. As for the guy thing just try to move on. There are many more guys in the world and u have just seen a fraction of them. Once you find someone else you like better all feelings for him will disappear, trust me on this I have had it happen to me and seen it happen to tons of my friends. Enjoy life and just have fun. The right guy will show up eventually just keep your eyes open.

I know this may seem like a strange question but I was just wondering is being 4'9'' with a 34c was either attractive or just awkward looking. I suppose my main question is, do you think that a girl with my sizes is unattractive? I'm not fat. I'm only like 100 pounds and have a 23.5 inch waist. I've never had a boyfriend and guys never really seem to be that interested in me. All of my friends have boyfriends. They all look so happy and...i don't know. I kind of want that too someday. I'm going to boarding school after the summer ends and would rather not enter a new school with crap self esteem. So basically, my question is if (in general) my physical looks are...um....strange? Because just a little while ago I overheard some guys talking about me and they were making fun of how...um...awkward i looked and it kind of got me thinking and wondering whether or not my looks were attractive or not. so...yeah, if you could please just give me some feedback on this, I would greatly appreciate it. (link)
It's not a big deal by any means. Your size is fine trust me I know plenty of short girls who have a bunch of guys after them. Plus your young, u gonna grow up and flourish into a nice young woman. And as for the boyfriend thing don't sweat it you have all your high school career to date. Just enjoy being single while u can and remember to just have fun. Good luck in high school.


boys again, the most common confusing topic of all. anyways. so my friend has a friend thats really cute. and i want to talk to him and see if things will work out, but i have a few big problems. number one, i am PAINFULLY shy when it comes to guys that i find attractive. number two, he's a senior, and he gets out of school in two weeks. number three, he's always stoned at school when i see him. i think thats it. on the plus side, i pretty much have all summer because my friend&i already talked it over and we're gonna hang out a lot over summer hopefully. so here comes the most confusing part. i'll tell my friend (who is a guy) about the guy i think is cute. like i'll just be like aw hes cute. and stuff like that at random. and then he makes situations for me where me&his friend are within the same area. so basically, he's been trying to help hook us up. kind of. but then, sometimes, especially lately since after me&his friend actually met, it seems like hes trying to avoid me, and not wanting me to come around. he's also been telling me to get his friend off my mind, and i don't know what this could mean? i guess i'm just asking for perspectives and what i should do. i hope this isn't too confusing. thankss!! (link)
Listen to me with this one. I have had friends with the same problem liking a senior who is graduating in a couple of weeks. Trust me just let him go, let him graduate and move on. You will find someone next year, almost guaranteed if you keep looking.
