Q: Okay here's the thing, I hate my "best friend". hate her. I blame her for almost all my misery (even though i know it's wrong, so you don't have to tell me that.. because it wont make a difference, i still need to get her out of my life!) the more I hang out with her, the more I become her..and I hate myself now. I stuck with her cause I felt sorry for her, she's kinda pathetic.. (wow i know how bad that sounds, i know im a terrible friend.. but i just.. i dont know) anyways, i stuck with her, even started in her class, and because of that (no one really likes her) ive become one of those poeple who arent really in the class, its like me and her are our own little group and the rest of the class is a group.. now im used to being popular, having friends etc because that's what makes me happy! im sick of being just me and her! and she kinda pisses me off, everything she says annoys me.. but since it's been going on for 2 years. I can't stop. I'm stuck.. like, it's been me and her for two years, so i cant just stop hanging out with her, and start being with the rest of my class, that will look so weird!! and we've beend oing all class projects and everything together, so it's ALWAYS me and her.. ugghhh i HAAATE IT! its easy for me to make friends, i could easily become a part of the class if she would just leave, burt with her, im stuck. it just won't work! like you dont understand, its gotten to the point were ive been skipping school for weeks now because i dont wanna be with her, she makes me miserablee.. but i have no choice, i cant even change schools, trust me ive looked in to it.. so what do i do?? PLEASE HELP. im becoming more and more like it, i can tell, and i hate it..

since you two are best friends, and you've been together for a couple of years, if you just completley stop being friends with her, she will probably be very upset. and i know right now you're really annoyed with her, but you probably don't hate her. just think of all the good times you've had. you're probably just sick of hanging out with her and only her, and you probably feel like she is holding you back from being with your other friends and having other oppurtunities - which may be happening. i'm confused, though - while you're not at school for "weeks", what does your friend do? hang out by herself? if she has absolutely NO other friends, you dropping her could be devastating. so, even though you want to, i wouldn't just drop her. if you can, try and talk to her - if you've been best friends, you should be able to talk and understand eachother. say your point of view, and listen to hers too. don't yell or anything, jsut try and have a talk [in person]. tell her how you feel, but in a nicer version. like, "i know we've been really close, but i think we would both benefit from meeting other people, too." then, don't CoMPlETLEY stop hanging out with her, but try and make other friends to. in your class, maybe for a project you can ask someone else to be your partner. if you can work in groups, maybe you and your friend can try working with other people so you can both make new friends. try hanging out iwth other people, but don't completley ditch your friend - still hang out wiht her sometimes too. after awhile, when youve both made new friends, you may find yourself missing her, and your time together in which case you might stay best friends. or not.. maybe your just not right for each other. it all depends. anyway i hope i helped =] good luck with everything.

Q: I have been best friends with a girl for a little over a year now. Over this year she's changed a lot, in both appearance and personality. She teases and calls me names a lot, and I try to send her insults back to make her see that it hurts but she just gets ever madder and teases me more. I don't know if I should quit hanging out with her or just ignore it. What should I do?
|

|
|
|

don't ignore it if it bothers you, and don't quit hanging out with her - yet. talk to her about it. if she is your best friend she will understand and you should be able to talk to her about these things. maybe she doesn't realize what she's doing and she means it in a joking way. or maybe not. either way, just takl to her and tell her that you don't like it/how you are feeling. give her time to change. after a while, if she doesn't, and it really bothers you, you gave her a chance. gradually start hanging out with others more. you dont deserve to be treated like that

Q: i was juss wondering. can ou sleep with tampons in?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
no. it's dangerous to go for more than 6 hours (or something) with a tampon in. you could get TSS & it can be very dangerous. sleep with a pad on instead, and if it's heavy, there are heavy duty pads.

Q: I have a strange problem.
My boobs got smaller.
My bras don't fit anymore, but my old bras do.
I went down about a cup size.
How is this possible???
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if you lost a substantial amount of weight (more than just like 2 pounds) this could have caused you to move down a cup size. other than that, im not quite sure and you might want to ask your mom or doctor. it's probably not dangerous, but if you're curious, ask.

|

you don't need to stop being friends with her because of this. talk to her about it before totally ditching her. tell her how it makes you feel, and you don't like it when she does that. if she's a good friend, she should stop. if not, move on.

Q: Whats like the official definition of "hooked up" I thought it meant having sex, some of my friends just say like making out. So when I watch shows like Laguna and such, I never know what they mean!

|
|
|

hooking up can mean different things depending on who you are. some people define it as having sex, making out, or a number of other things. hope i helped :)

Q: If a guy only puts the tip of his penis in a girl is she still a virgin?
Why do girls walk kind of weird after having sex for the first time?
Do you really bleed alot your first time having sex?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for your first question, it depends. physically, most girls are considered not a virgin after their hymen breaks. but, morally, by putting the tip of your penis in a girl, she's not a virgin.
girls may walk weird after having sex for the first time because it could hurt, or their hymen could have broken. a girl's hymen can break not just from sex, but from riding a bike, putting a tampon in, and other things. so, not all girls bleed the first time they have sex (if their hymen was already broken.) some do, though.

Q: ok i just turned 13 a week ago and i'm in 7th grade, and i havn't had a boyfriend yet...i'm pretty sure its because... i'm ugly, i mean i wear glasses i'm 5'0 or 5'1 and i'm fat... (135) waht do i do?? i cant talk to a friend or cousin or aunt, and my mom passed away. so i live with my dad. what should i do?? please please please help me. o and if u say maybe to change my hairstyle, tell me a site or link please p.s. i have brown hair and the length is the middle of my arm befor my elbow.

first of all, don't put yourself down so much. if you're self-conscious, people notice that. if you think your unattractive, so will other people. if you're confident and think you're attractive, it will rub off on other people.
just because you wear glasses doesn't make you ugly. i know girls that guys like even though they have glasses. try to pick a pair that compliments your face and looks good on you, or get contacts if you hate your glasses and if your aloud.
if you want to loose weight, and you should do it for yourself, so you'll feel more confident, not to impress other people, just start eating better and exersizing. eat protein because it will keep you full for longer, and have 3 meals a day with a snack between lunch and dinner. try not to eat after 8 oclock pm. if you need more help on loosing weight, just drop one in my inbox.
if you want to, you could start wearing makeup. eyeliner, mascara, eyeshadow, foundation. you can find those at any make up store, department store, drug store and alot of other places. try going to a hairstylist and having them style or layer your hair. cut out a picture from a magazine or internet that you like and ask them to do something like that.
just because you havent had a boyfriend yet doesn't mean you're not attractive. if you want a boyfriend, talk to guys and be yourself.

Q: This my new year, 7th grade, and I want to make new friends and stuff. But sometimes I feel like some of my friends are like settling.. and dont really wanna make more friends. I mean, they are good people, but they just arent like me and my personality. Sometimes some of them are like tired for no reason and it really annoys me, especially cuz i may sleep for like 4 hours and still be energetic in the morning. yah we have our differences, but i'd like to meet somebody who i can just really have a good time with, and know that they seriously are my best friend. i already have some.. but.. idk. i dont really care if they're popular or anything, just not like butt ugly or whatever, and have similar interests as me somewhat,and stuff. or maybe im just being too tough and 'not appreciating my friends' but sometimes i feel as though they're kinda.. um dull.
any tips on how to meet new people? i guess i also tend to settle, and i get a little shy around new people and dont really show them my real self till they get to know me and i trust them and feel comfortable around them and stuff. how can i be like more outgoing or something? thanks a bunchh.
also, what traits do you admire about a person?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
finding a new best friend doesn't just happen in a second. it takes a while to deveop that kind of relationship since you want someone who is "seriously your best friend" - well, if you want that, it may take a little bit and not always come automatically.
i don't know why your friends being tired annoys you. maybe they didn't get enough sleep. especially with school and everything (if your in school?) people are tired in the mornings, you're lucky to be able to be energetic on 4 hours of sleep.
i think that you should try not to be so tough on your friends that you ahve now. branching out is good, and i encourge you to try and meet new people and maybe that special person you just clique with will come along, but don't ditch or totally stop hanging out with your old best friends. hang out with new people, and the old.
to be outgoing and make friends, just smile and be a happy person. ask people questions about themselves, or start talking about common interests.
traits i would admire in a person are outgoing, friendly, funny, trustworthy, honest, loyal, they can be their own person, and more.
good luck!

Q: For Halloween, my friends want to be Fantanas (there are four of us, like the Fantanas -- in case you don`t know what/who they are: http://sidesalad.net/archives/Fantanas.jpg). Anyways, last year, we all used to be really good friends, but now, one of them, lets call her Lola has been getting on my nerves really badly. She is very harsh to me and talks badly about me all the time. I really don`t want to be a Fantana with her, but theyve already got it all planned out. They all have outfits, I`m the only one that doesnt have one. Plus, they are going to go trick or treating, which I don`t mind, but I would rather go to a party. I told them we should throw a party, but the thing is I'm the only one of them that has any guy friends, so it would be a really lame party if they threw it.

haha! me & three of my friends are being the fantanas for halloween, too. anyways, since you already have it planned, you may be stuck with being a fantana with her. unless you decide to be something by yourself, but they might be mad at you and you can't exactly kick "Lola" out. if you want a party, and your the only one that has guy friends, you should throw it by yourself or get some other people to help you that aren't in the fantana group. they can just help bring food or set up or whatever.

Q: this friend of mine all of a sudden stopped talking to me and gave me attitude and went to another one of the girls in my class and now doent talk to me anymore. what should i do????? please answer soon.

it doesn't sound like she was ever a good friend, or is someone you want to be friends with. a true friends wouldn't do that. however, i know it can be tough to loose someone. you can try talking to her about it, and if she's mature, she'll talk to you. if she's immature, she might not. in that case, you don't have much you can do. just try and continue with your life, hang out with your other friends, and eventually, she'll realize what she's missing.

Q: My friend is always trying to make me feel jealous. whatever it is that she does she always tries to rub it in. I do say 'very good' etc with me not being jealous but she carries it on!
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
i've had this problem many times. don't let it get to you. if she sees its not bothering you, she'll stop. chances are, she's really jealous of YOU, so she wants to make herself seem better, or get you jealous of her. she probably has low self esteem and is trying to bring you down to bring yourself up. show her that you're above that, and it doesn't bother you, and she'll stop

Q: I like to spend alot of time with my b/f and all my close friends have either moved away or i dont talk to them anymore. His friends are always dropping by and constantly are hanging out with him. He keeps saying he wants his alone time and doesn't want me to be there all the time, but how much space is enough space?

just don't be one of those clingy, needy girls thats always like "you have to hang out iwth me!" "why arent yout alking to me every second" "why didnt you call me back!" sometimes, problems do happen & you need to ask him questions like that but don't be overly dramatic and read into things too much. let him have time to chill with his friends, and if he wants to be alone, let him. don't say, "let's hang out" every second of the day. let him come to you sometimes, too. and if rigth away he doesn't ask you to hang out, he will eventually.

most girls don't mind giving out their screename, even to boys that are just friends, so i don't know whats up with this girl. even if she had a boyfriend, it's not bad to give a guy her screename. i don't think you asked too soon - your just be friendly. maybe she was joking when she said she'd "think about it", or maybe she doesn't have one or something so she made a joke. she might be playing hard to get. i'd wait a little while and if she doesn't bring it up, say, "so, you gonna give me your screename or not?" or make a joke about it or something.

Q: My best friend told me a secret, and he told me not to tell anybody. It was about his ex. I didn't think it would be a big deal, so I told her, because we are so so so close.
and he got really mad at me.
and I really miss him. We havent spoken since.
what can I do or say to make it up to him?
I know it is my fault and I feel terrible about it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tell him how you feel & admit that you are wrong - that you know it's your fault, and you feel terrible about it. tell him that you made a huge mistake, but you realize it was a mistake and you won't do it again. tell him that he is your best friend, you really miss him. he might need some time to cool off, but, if he's a good person, he will give you a second chance if you admit you were wrong and apologize. it might take awhile for you to gain his trust back though.
the only way to fix this is to talk to him.

Q: okay this is how it goes....
a friend of mine recently quit the smoking habit although he still is a heavy drinker,and the wierd part is that his girl left him because of he quit the smoking habit.So my question is,do girls get turned on by smokers or off?and do girls mind if their guys are drinkers? and finally,what should I say to my friend's girl?cause we all are pretty good friends and I wish I could help mend their relationship.thanks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
most girls are def. turned OFF by smoking. heavy drinking is also a turn off. who wants a boyfriend that is drunk all the time? i'm not sure how old you are, but if youre old enough then drinking now and then is probably fine as long as you're not like an alcoholic. about talking to the girl, first try and find out why she left him because of smoking. ask, "why'd you leave him after he quit smoking?"
