Q: i'm 13/f. well me and my boyfriend have been going out since July and my birthday is at the end of October. he said he was going to get me a CD and i'm not at all greedy so i told him not to get me that and just get me like a 99cent card or something. because i would love a CD but i want something more memorable like even if he got me a 25 cent ring from a vending machine because it would be cute and sweet. I suppose that isnt my problem though besides the fact that I feel heartless for wanting something more romantic for my birthday. figuring we cant drive we cant go far either. but i'd like to do something special with him and ik usually its the guys job 2 figure something out but w/e i mean he's not going to even tho he's the sweetest guy ever.. we're going to hang out but we do that anyways so something a little more interesting might be nice i just dont know what to do *sighs* any suggestions on wut to do??

ok i think you should tell him that you dont really want a cd but maybe a something you can treasure and perish.

Q: okay, so my really close guy friend, david known him since i was in 5th grade- i want to go to homecoming with him real bad! i'm kinda going with this other guy which i dont like, and i dunno if it's for sure yet. but my friend doesn't want to go, OR pay for it! and i've been trying to convince him that it'll befun and SO many people are going up to him and saying to go, but he really doesn't want to pay for it. and then... i said i would pay for it, but he doesn't want me to pay for it, because then he'll feel bad if i paid it (he's really gentlemanish lol). so, what can i do to convince him to go?

THANK YOU!

ok 1st if you dont like the guy your going out with you should tell him you just dont feel the connection.
tell david that you really like him and it would really make you happy if he went and ask him if you are allowed to pay for him and then he can pay you back.
plus tell him that theres only one chance for homecoming and that he can go with you!

Q: My problem is quite simple you see we have some kittens that I have been taking of since they were born. Since it's close to the holidays everyone is against me and are going to get read of them no matter what I say. But I thinks that is so unfair since I have been the one who's taken care of them this whole time. They mean alot to me but my parents and brother can careless can someone give me some advice ASAP.

dear kitten problem,
i think you should ask your parent to let you start babysitting (if your old enough) so then you can pay for the kats food and litter and that you will do all the work for them.
also show responsiblity , that always works for me!,.

ok i think you should babysit a kid at the age you think you can handel. also you could hang up flyers for a babysitting job and putting some good qualitys of yerself. now i think you should let the parent of the child set the price.

Q: To give a little background, my boyfriend and I have been together for over a year I'm 16 and he's 17. He would always get things in the mail from the Army, Navy and the Marines. He would save them, show it to me and I'd rip it up and tell him he's not going. The thought of my boyfriend going away to war is something I just CAN'T handle.

I was in his room, cleaning it up while he was in the shower like I always do and I found a flyer that had the information about the Navy on it... I was getting ready to rip it up when I saw that he had signed up for it..

I always told him that I'd be heartbroken if he would sign up for anything that COULD get him killed.

I'm trying SO hard to understand... But I can't. I don't know why he would do this to me. He keeps saying it's for the best but I KNOW it's not the best for him. He always told me he'd never leave me, but by doing this I feel like he is. He always told me, "You don't know what I would give just to see your beautiful face every day and just to have you in my arms, even if it's for 5 minutes." He's told me he wants to be the father of my children, my husband, my one and only.. If he's at war, how is he going to do that??

I really want to convince him NOT to go, but that's just being selfish... But at the same time I want him here with ME. I don't want to live every day in fear that I'll get that knock on my door and having someone tell me that the love of my life was killed.

So my questions are... SHOULD I convince him not to go and explain to him why I don't want him to?

If not, how can I get over this? How can I deal with it every day knowing that my boyfriend is risking his life?

im soory for this but if i were you i would suport his dessishion, now that might sound crazey. But hes doing this for you and your future family!
now if he does go to war make sure you tell him to send a letter to you every week or day!

hope that helps

Q: I have been going out with my boyfriend for quite some time now. I met his parents last weekend and they invited me for lunch on Sunday. I would love to go and all but I don't know what to talk about to make sure they like me.

Suggestions? Thanks so much!

if i were you i would just be meself so thats what you should do

Q: Im 13, and theres this boy who ive liked from the first day of school, and on the second day, he just randomly walked up to me and started walking next to me and talking to me. He is kind of my friend now but he still doesn that sometimes...do you think these are signs that he likes me?

of course! no guy just comes up to you and walks by you unless he likes you!

Q: There's this girl that i've liked for a long time, but ive never talked to her - whenever I see her (once a week) she's with her friend. I really want to talk to her but there's never a time when she's alone. I need to know if I should to talk to her when her friend is around or if I should keep waiting for when she's alone and I want to know what I should say to her. We're 13 by the way.

ok im 13 too!
now if i were you i would ask her if you guys can hang out after school. ok once you guys are more like friends you have a better chance. OK now if you dont want to do that then i suggest you ask her if you can talk to her alone. so then ask her then.
also if i would ask her to a school dance.

Q: Hi, I'm 15/f/sophmore in hs. I decided this yr. I want to get out of my shell more and make more friends! I'm doing a pretty good job of it, I've been chatting it up lately with some people in some of my classes, but I run out of things to say! I need to know what things I could say (these are too girls) when I run out of conversations. I'm not one of those naturally outgoing girls, I need to be in a convo to feel comfortable, so yah!

ask your friends so what make up do you use if you like their make up.
also ask how everything at home is going and how their social life is.
ask about their sports (if they do any)
,cheer them on at their games.

thats all i can think of right now

Q: I have two computers (obviously) and one does not turn on anymore. It is plugged in and everything, but it just doesnt turn on. I can press the on button on the hard-drive repeatedly and even hold it and nothing happens. The thing is, I have some files on that computer that are VERY important to me. I want them very bad. How can I get to them? Or is it impossible. I'm willing to do anything. Btw, it has been this way for awhile (6-7 months) but I never needed the files until now. PLEASE HELP!! This is urgent and I'm desperate!!

ok your iformation is not in the monitor but in the tower, so tkae the monitor and hook it up to the monitor that works, now this might not work but so if it doesnt you cant fix it

Q: Im getting a new room and the dimensions are 12x15.5..kinda biggish. I Was thinking about the colors and im not sure. Im kinda of a wild-crazyish person but.. i dont want the colors to be too out of control. I dont want them to be boring, but somewhat subtle. Maybe i can add some bright colored stripes?? I can do whatever colors i want but im kind of choosy. Im getting this bedspread ((well i want it))--> http://wakeupfrankie.com/ensemble.asp?ensemble_id=64#viewer
So..yes any color suggestions would be accepted!
Except i dont like wallpaper, or the color brown or blue.THANKS!

ok i think you should paint your wall your favorite color and then ,this is what my cousin did, take sponges and dip them in other colors of paint and throw the sponge on the wall. this will make it a sponge like shape. now colors i would sugest is all the colors of the rainbow like red orange yellow green blue (if you want)
purple. and since you want your new room to be unique i would also do like white black pink jade and ect.also u can take sponges and cut them into shapes like stars and cirles and triangles and ect.

hope i helped
