Q: I'm a 16 year old female and I'm new to the whole working-out thing. I've been doing pilates and running for the past year but I do it randomly, so it doesn't count much.

Whenever I sweat, I get hives on my knees, thighs, and arms. I do have a skin condition called "Eczema" but, as far as I know, that doesn't have much to do with hives. I'm allergic to peanut butter, cats and dogs, and that's about it. So why would sweat trigger hives on my skin?

Q: Okay so with financial aid for college...

I know that typically when you're including your housing fees in the student loan that you're talking about on-campus living like in a dorm...right?

Well can you get a student loan that will cover the cost of a small apartment off campus while you're in college?

I was class of 08 high school but I didn't graduate because I didn't have enough credits...so starting winter semester (because while the fall semester of college is going on I'll be finishing high school) I'm going to community college. I'll finish up the year in community college but for next year I'm hoping to get into Eastern Michigan University.

They have on-campus housing BUT...I have 2 dogs. I know SOME universities allow pets to stay in certain dorms, but not EMU and none of the ones that I found had my major available (Interior Design).

For most college students this isn't an issue, they just leave the dogs at home, but one of my dogs is the type that attaches himself to one human, which is me. And my family doesn't like him because of that...so I don't trust them to take care of him properly because a) they don't like him, b) he doesn't like them very much either, c) none of them are responsible pet owners and d) he has a liver condition that he needs a very specific diet for. My other dog I'd have less of a problem leaving her behind because the family likes her more and she has no special needs. However she has had my older dog around her entire life and I don't think she would do well without him. So at the VERY MINIMUM I need to take the one dog and he weighs 10 lbs so it shouldn't be difficult finding an apartment that allows dogs his size. My other dog weighs around 60 so I'm kind of worried that I may be forced to leave her behind. The ideal would be to take both.

So my main question is do student loans cover off campus living expenses?

But as a side question...do you know of any colleges that allow dogs to live on campus?

Q: my family is planning a vacation for this weekend, it's going to be about a 9-10 hour drive down south. I always get car sick esp if the drive is more than 4-5 hours
any way I can prevent this from happening?

Q: ok i've asked a question before... it's about a married friend of mine who's husband is cheating on her...

any way i kind of fixed the situation, built her confidence, and instructed her what to do... and things are kind of better.

the thing is i am well off than her and i offered to help her out (because he family won't pay for her) she needed a make over since she planned to confront both her husband and the home-wrecker... in any case i helped out and offered to buy her an outfit and makeup (since she doesn't use any) and i brought another friend of mine to show her how to apply it... when we were at the mall i felt that shewas using me... i mean we agreed to buy her one outfit... so we put one on hold and went around to see more stuff and we found something nicer and i bought it (i spent about 400 dollars!!!!!!! i'm not complaining but look what happens) she kept hinting about the firt out fit and how its nice and she wanted it (i am not stupid she wanted me to buy it, but i acted stupid and said the one she has looks better) any way she kept hinting and hinting and she wanted more stuff (like she got greedy all of a sudden) and then not only that i bought her lunch (fine it was her day to get pampered....) but then we went home where we were supposed to meet the friend who knows how to put the make up ... after that was done that friend had already set plans with me to go to the movies and she doesn't know this friend to well she just put the makeup as a favor for me... the other one wouldn't leave so i had to invite her to the movies... when we got there she wouldn't pay!!!... i mean seriously... what if she starts expecting me to help her all the time?!?!?! a friend in need you know? not a friend to abuse and take advantage of!!! what should i do? i mean i don't regret helping her out but seriously what the heck!! and she didn't even offer or say she would pay back (not that i would take it anyway because thats the way i am brought up) but a little respect won't kill her....

Q: Any creative advice on how I can spice up the walls in an apartment?

I can't paint them and I'm going to put up pictures but I need something bigger.

I like bright, vibrant colors and I really want my apartment to reflect that.

Q: alright so i dated this guy for almost 2 years, and i REALLY loved him. but he started changing and he became a complete asshole and treated me like shit. he broke up with me about 3 times and then came back, it was the hardest thing ever.. i just wanted to get things back the way they were but it was too late beacuse he was already soooo different!! it hurt horribly, but i realized he wasnt a good guy anyway and that i needed to move on. its been 3 months since we broke up, and 2 whole weeks sice weve talked AT ALL, its the longest weve gone without talking! and i knoww hes not coming back this time, i really hate him for evrything! but anyways back to the point!! i met this new guy and weve been hanging out a lot and i know he likes me because he pretty much told me strait up. i think i might actually like him, which is awesome beacuse i havent liked anybody else since my ex! eventually im sure he's going to ask me out, and im just not sure if i should? do you think it would be wrong to him since i dated a guy so long and probably still have feelings for him?? or do you think i should just go for it?! it might help me get over my ex?!

Q: me and my boyfriend have been together for 10 months and we have a wonderful relationship.

i have bad dreams about him cheating and us breaking up sometimes..what do they mean?

Q: well i have had this problem with falling asleep lately. i try really hard to relax and clear my mind, but it takes forever until i finally get to sleep. i have a set time when i get to bed and when i wake up. i even do this on weekends. i even try to set the time a little earlier since it does take longer.

lately when i've been waking up, i've been really tired and i don't feel rested. does anyone have any ways of getting to sleep?

Q: so one of my friends decided to hook me up with this guy she used to go to school with and that she used to have a crush on him blah blah blah..anyways he messaged me on myspace tellin me this too. when i told him i had to get off he texted me and he was pretty cool..i thought. we had a lot of stuff in common and he seemed okay but when i saw him he wasnt attractive and i dont like him so how should i tell him that without sounding rude. or like make something up lol

Q: there is this guy who is a bit older than i am (we're both in college) and he works at the library ... in order to borrow anything from them i have to go through the reserve desk and that's where he works.... so anyhow... i've been doing everything: eye contact smiles everything... i've only gotten to the point where he realizes that i am interested and he acknowledges. he flirted a couple of times the day before but the next day there was less eye contact (though he would acknowledge my presence by smiling or looking or smiling to himself when i look over) i don't want to seem desperate or basically young and clingy but thats the way i feel when i see him... my stomach goes in knots and i can't help but look to see if he is there (he is a master's candidate and i am a senior- he pointed that out casually to "us" and my research group when we wanted to borrow projector equipment and so on).....

what should i do? i mean how do i get him to do something? and what should i say to him while returning stuff... what kind of small talk should i initiate?? AND HOW DO I KNW HE LIKES ME! i am Hispanic so i have a very small waistline and small bust and hugeeee thighs and knees (pear shaped) compared to the proportions of Caucasians which makes me feel very very conscious ... i am really confused i mean how do i tell if he finds me unattractive?!?!?!

Q: 15/F

okay so normally i dont really care about these things.
But its happened so often i think its time i do something about this.
Beofore i even get to explaining it i want you to know that breaking up is NOT an option for me.

Whenever im on the phone with my boyfriend and he has his friend or cousins over.
He NEVER talks to me, he just talks to the people hes in the rooom with, and leaves me holding the phone to my ear and looksing stupid.
yesterday, i hung up because it was getting really annoying, and it took him ten minutes to realize i hung up, and only THEN did he call me backk.
Then he just does the same thing over again.
Every now and then he would say
"sorry"
or
"uhh ... hang in a second" and then goof around or talk to the other people in the room for like twenty minutes!
While I, again, am STILL on the line.
Or whenever i would try and get him talking, he would be like "......sorry what?" over and over again.
If your going to call me, TALK TO ME.
I dont know any way else to put it.
It really makes me mad, i think hes trying to impress me with the face that he has an awesome life of laughter and friends.
And i really think thats good, but when my boyfriend calls me, i want to talk to him.
He can goof around later.
Now, i love him very much and hes really sensitive to what i say ...
but this has just got to stop.
He also is different in front of his friends in front of me.
He'll goof around with them, and call me when i even HEAR hes having a good time:
then later on he'll be like
"Ugh (so and so) is so annoying i hate him, i only hang out with his cuz i feel bad"
or something like that
Please give me any solutions?

Q: Heres the scoop. I have a boyfriend. We have been dating for about a month. My rents are "old school" and seem to think that if you have a boyfriend, you cant have boy friends. So, i have to choose between my boyfriend (which means losing all my guy friends) or my guy friends (which means losing my boyfriend). I dont know what to do. What should i do

Q: Has anyone ever felt such a strong physical pain left mentally by someone else? My ex boyfriend used to be everything, my superhero. He moved out to Rhode Island for me but it completely changed him. Our whole year of amazing love has turned into me being dirt in his eyes. We've had problems just like everyone else but we were always there for eachother. When he came here he started to fall into other girls and once he got a job and his own place to live it was like he was completely done with me. I feel so used but I don't want to believe it I want to believe in the guy I once knew. Its tearing me apart literally to the point of hyperventalation. Nothing I do can remind him of our promises nothing I say can change his heart and my heart can't accept that. How can I get his hurtful image out of my head?

Q: Okay, well i have been doing alot of reasearch. And lately, i know that i need a therapist. I know i have a problem. A mental problem. But the problem is...I am only 13 in a half years old!

Q: I really need help on getting information about how to go about getting emancipated in New Hampshire, I just moved from Massachusetts and was going to do it there but I moved and have no information about it here. I've tried to look it up online but nothing is clear to as how to exactly go about it, or who I could possibly contact to get information about it or where to go.

I was kicked out of my house at 14, my mother left me at 7, and my dad kicked me out two years ago. He's a drug addict and I've been moving in and out of friend's houses since I moved out. I am 16 years old now and the guardian that I live with is no help with getting the stuff I need together, (signing up for school, a job, getting a car, opening a bank acount, etc.) If you can give me any advice on emancipation in NH please let me know.
