♥There is no point to this relationship if you and your boyfriend never get to see each other, you know what I mean? If you really don't want to take a break for a while, do all that you can to see him during the day. At work if he has a lunch break, set a time for you two to go have lunch together, or bring in something for him to eat. If there is no way, you just need to talk to him (if you can find the time..) and tell him that you want a real relationship, and you want him to spend time with you. If he can't pencil you into his schedule, he isn't worth your time. Don't completley dump him, take a break, then give him another chance (if you can't find another guy that can give you what you want).

♥If you don't have a desk in your bedroom already, I suggest getting one. Make it all pretty and organized so you will like sitting there. Put boxes of pencils, paper, etc. And your books all on a rack on the bottom. Believe it or not, if you have a good homework space, homework won't be so bad. Play music while you do your homework. Make a point to get all of your work done before you do what you usually do after school (ex. eat a snack, talk on the phone, go outside, go online, tv, etc.).

♥Take your cat to the vet. I'm dead serious, take him/her now. My cat did this exact same thing and then died the night after. The vet said it was because too many fluids entered his lungs. Please take him to the vet, I hate when animals die. Also, I don't want to scare you, but if you don't take him as soon as possible it might be too late. We didn't get my cat to the vet on time. Good luck, give lots of love to your cat.

♥Well, it depends what your "look" is and what types of shoes you want. Because this isn't a very detailed question, i'll be nice and answer it with a variety of styles in mind:

If you are into the rocker look, I definitly suggest Converse shoes. http://www.converse.com , Chuck Taylors are the best ones. There is a huge variety and the shoes are an extremley reasonable price.

If you're more preppy, I would go with bright colored Nikes. Nike Airs are my favorite, but sometimes they can be a bit pricey.

If you're a skater/surfer type I would go with Etnies, Gallaz, Roxy, DC, or other skate brand sneakers. These are usually cheap, $40-$70, you can find them at http://www.pacsun.com

If you're more hip-hoppish or sporty, I would go with K-Swiss shoes. Very afordable, and simple. Jordans or PhatFarms will work too.

So yeah, if you need any other style related questions, just ask me.

♥http://www.pbteen.com has great decorating ideas and things for your bed. Alot of pink and green, actually. The prices are average. It may seem a little pricey, but believe me, it's good quality. Also, if you're looking for new furniture, you can try http://www.ikea.com .

♥I definitly can relate to you. I used to wake up in the middle of the night and just go to town on nachos and sandwhiches and such. Not healthy, and it makes you feel sick in the morning. Now I eat cereal and milk whenever i'm in need of a midnight snack. It's perfect. It tastes good, it's filling, and it's healthy for you. Buy all different kinds so you don't get sick of just one cereal. Also I can reccomend:

*Tortilla chips and fresh salsa.
*Cut up raw veggies dipped in dressing/dip.
*Fruit sprinkled with a little sugar. (try again)
*Small salad.

Drinking lots of water will help fill your stomach if you eat a small healthy snack like fruit. I still say cereal is your best bet.

♥Relax! Nothing is wrong with you. Every girl gets her period at different times. The average age is 12-15. You might take after your mom and start in 9th. It's all up to your body. No worries, be glad you are period free, it's coming soon.

♥Drug use will only show up during drug tests. If the doctor is testing for HIV, he isn't even concerned about drugs. Although, if you DO test positive for HIV he might do a drug test to see the cause of it, I doubt it though. You're safe unless your parents (if they're the ones testing you) sneak in a drug test.) I think you're safe but if you really are concerned, don't smoke any more and go to a department store to find de-toxification pills (if they sell them there.)

♥Dreams mostly. In romantic love stories have you noticed everything is perfect? Just how everyone would want their love to be. People watch them to feel comforted and dream about what they want in a relationship (even though it could never be that perfect). Also, people just feel happy when they cry over happy endings, it releases good happy feelings.

♥I have side bangs. I love them personally, I don't have any dis advantages. They are constantly in your face, but you get used to it. If you get annoyed, just get a bobby pin and clip them back. It depends on how fast your hair grows to tell if they will take a while to grow out. About the running, they might annoy you, but most likely not. Put your hair in a ponytail and gel the bangs back (because in ponytails the bangs stay down) and your all good. I think you should get them, they are the perfect hair accessory, they make just a boring ponytail cute.

♥A "flamer" is a very flamboyant and feminene gay person. It's like an offensive word for a homosexual.

♥Don't even worry about it. Most guy don't even know what stretch marks are. And plus, guys will just be happy they're going up your shirt, they won't even notice. Almost every girl gets stretch mark because they're growing. To help them fade quicker, go to Walgreens, CVS, or your local drug store and pick up Cocoa Butter (some brands are even made especially for stretch marks!).

♥It's all part of growing up. Believe it or not, everyone gets this feeling every once in a while. You ARE good enough, you just haven't found the right person. 14 year old boys just go out with girls for "boy reasons". You'll get a boyfriend sooner or later, you're still young. whatever you do don't change yourself or feel like you have to be a slut in order to get a boyfriend. Just think of it this way-- In the future a special guy will be thanking all of these ones that they didn't fall in love with you. There WILL be someone, you just have to trust me. Try making good friends with alot of guys.

♥What you have really isn't common, and since it's spreading, it's probably not mild. Most products you find in stores like Wal Mart really don't work, you can try things like Neutrogena but it's most likely going to be a waste. Go to the dermatologist, it doesn't matter if you don't like him/her, it matters that you get rid of the acne. If you really are stubborn, I can suggest a few products for you that can be found in local stores:

--Cetaphil everyday skin cleanser.
--Neutrogena oil-free acne wash.
--ProActiv Acne system (find at the mall).
--Pure Witch Hazel Astringent.

♥Relaxing is always the way to go when you're talking about bedrooms. Definitly paint your bedroom walls light blue, you like the color, and it stands for calmness. Pick a corner of your room and clear it out, get tons of blue fluffy pillows and beanbags and throw them down. Put a canopy-like curtain over the corner, and there you go, perfect lounging place. Make sure there is not alot of clutter on your shelves and other surfaces. For furniture and decorations, check out these websites: http://www.ikea.com , http://www.pbteen.com .

♥I'm sorry to hear about that. I completley know the feeling, I just recently lost my grandfather. There really isn't much I can tell you, there isn't anything you can do, he isn't coming back. Try not to think about the negative things about his death, think of the positive things (yes, there are positives). He lived a great life, and it was just his time to go. Think of the memories you and him had. The feeling will take a while to go away, it's normal. Do things that he would be proud of you doing. Feel better, things will eventually not be so depressing. Don't dwell on it and cry constantly, your uncle wouldn't want you to feel that way.

♥Nothing will happen to you, don't worry about it. The whole "Pop Rocks and Soda" thing is just a myth, your stomach won't really explode. If you had pop rocks and soda together at the same time, they might give you a tigly stomach ache and that's about it. I suggest you don't have any more sugars or sweets throughout the day, both pop rocks and soda are a huge sugar intake.

♥Tell him no.

♥He has no right to force his religion and beliefs on you. You just have to come right out and tell him that you have your own beliefs and he has his. People are different and follow different lifestyles. If he threatens to not be your friend anymore because of something so silly as religion, I suggest you just find a new friend because this one is pressuring you.

♥Well, if she said that he has feelings for you, and he also asked you out, I think that she's serious about it. Best friends don't (or shouldn't) lie to you. If you like your friends brother, flirt with him and see if he flirts back, see if there is a connection. If you don't like him that way, just act as you normally would. If it turns out your best friend was lying to embaress you, I think you should go back to the Best Friend Store and pick up a new one.
