Hi, my names Melanie.
I'm fifteen years old.
I love fashion, hanging out with my friends,
and drawing and writing along with a bunch of other stuff.
I used to have an old account here that was quite known for awhile,
but I sort of just lost touch with it,
so I decided to make a new one.
I'll try and help you the best I can,
just hopefully I didn't lose touch with my good advice, haha.
And feel free to IM me with your problem too.
I also put my myspace in a link down below,
if you ever want to add me & talk.
But incase you don't see it or something, it's:

i have 2 questions answer both if you can orn just answer one of them if you only know 1 answer.

1. i recently downloaded limewire and i downloaded about 200 songs. how do i transfer the songs on limwire onto my itunes??

2. when i downloaded limewire i only downloaded it on my moms username by accident. i dont want to download it again so how do i get limewire from my moms username to my username??? (link)
Well, I've never had to switch my limewire musc to another username, so I don't know how much help I'd be there, but maybe if you try and save your music on that account or create a new folder and just drag all your music there and drag it back or open it in your limewire, that might work.

But as for how to get your music on your ipod, all you have to do is click the song (and hold the mouse button down) and then just drag it over into your iTUNES. Then you just plug in your ipod and let it all download.

I hope I helped.


Last year, i found out that this guy i liked, for the whole year, liked me also. Summer came around, and my friend told me that he had told her to tell me to "not get a boyfriend over the summer". Well, summer is over, and school has begun, and he still likes me. But supossdly he "doesn't want a relationship". This totally stinks, i dont even know how to react to this. Should i still go after him, or should i just like, leave it be? (link)
Well obviously, leave it be. Why try and go after someone whose not into having a relationship right now?

I wouldn't back off of him or anything, keep talking to him and flirting and everything and keep him interested, and then hopefully he'll want to start having a relationship later or soon in the year and he'll still be interested in you then. :]

I hope I helped.


I'm a guy, and have known my best girl friend for 3 years now. I'm 17 and so is she. I've fallen in love with her over the years, and I don't know how to tell her. I know our relationship wouldn't change or anything, so I'm not unsure about that..it's just how to get it out. How can I tell her, when, where? (link)
Just take her someplace real nice or wherever her favorite place is. Tell her it's her day, your treat. Whatever she wants to do and just have fun and joke and share laughs.

Then during the night time, wherever you are ( at some point you're going to be walking somewhere I'm sure outside, possibly ) just ask her if she had a great time, and let her know she deserves it. Now here's the part where you could have two choices: you could either write her a note letting her know of the feelings you have for her and everything and maybe put a flower too on the inside of the envelope so when she opens it up, she gets a suprise. :]

OR if you decided to tell her face-to-face, just let her know of your feelings. Just be like,"____, I've been dying to tell you something, and if I don't tell you now I don't know if I'm ever going to. I love you." ( or something like that however you feel most comfortable putting it ). You just need to kind of make yourself say it. It doesn't matter how it's said, just the fact you said it.

I hope I helped.


Please don't lecture me on talking to random strangers online because I don't give out any personal information or plan to meet up with them anytime soon.

Anywaysm my question is when guys ask do you like to talk dirty or wanna talk dirty or something along the lines of that, is there a way to still talk to them without talking dirty to them? When I say no, they usually ditch. I know that I probably shouldn't spend my time wondering over this stuff and such but I want to really talk to them but I don't know how to...
(link)
No, you know how to talk to them. It's just THEM who don't want to talk. Whenever you're talking to guys over the internet usually ( I'm not necessairly meaning myspace I don't know where you're talking to these guys wether it be chats or what ) want to see some body parts or web cam it or cyber or at least have a girl talk dirty to them, so whenever they IM them, and the girl doesn't want to talk dirty to them, they're obviously not getting what they want and want nothing to do with you anymore.

So just keep doing what you're doing and say no whenever they ask you. Who'd want to keep talking to some guy whose all into that kind of stuff anyway? I wouldn't. And then hopefully a guy'll come along who actually wants to talk and type to you with two hands, and not one. :)

I hope I helped.


I am not an attractive guy. But it's my personality that gets people. My bestfriend ( a girl) is gorgeous, she's just overweight, not by much, but still. I have liked her for 1 year now, and I don't know what to do. She is very popular, but a sweetheart to everyone. I'm scared she won't want to go out with be/I'll be rejected. Should I take a chance? (link)
You only have one life ; why not take the chance? If you're her best friend, she already knows the amazing qualities of your personalit that she likes, looks aren't everything.

I would just take her out somewhere and have a lot of fun, just you and her. Take her to the movies, the park, wherever it is she wants to go and just laugh and joke around and have a great time and maybe even flirt her with a bit.

Then at the end of the night, just let her know of your feelings. Just tell her,"I just wanted to let you know because if I don't do it now I never will and I'm curious as to how you feel back. I really like you, _____." And see if she feels the same way back. If she doesn't, it's her loss, but if she does, that's great! :D

Also if she DOES reject you, take it in as a lesson that we all need to learn sooner or later in life. EVeryone's going to get rejected SOMEHOW wether it be by a person, by a job interview, by a college, whatever. And also if she were to say no, just tell her you really hope you guys can remain friends then, because you'd rather be her best friend then nothing it be all awkward and you guys not talk anymore.

So just think of it this way; would you rather sit there wondering,"What if she ever did really like me? Would've we been a great couple? What if, what if, what if." Or, "Jeez, this is a great girl and I'm SO glad I asked her out and took that chance and she said yes."

So take a chance! Go for it!

I hope I helped.

so theres a halloween party on halloween and your supposed to dress up
i have three costumes in mind a pirate, witch, and angel
and im not sure which one to pick so i just want people's opinion im leaning towards the pirate and then the angel and then the witch but wht do you think

pirate: http://howcool.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=12582

angel: 1. http://www.fredericks.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=Holiday2002&category%5Fname=Costumes-Fun+and+Flirty+Costumes&product%5Fid=90428

angel: 2. http://howcool.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=12545

( i think i like angel one better its a cute corset and fits well when i tried it on but idk)

witch costume: http://howcool.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=12501

i need your're opinon which one i should be (ps. please dont tell me there too skimpy, etc) (link)
Everybody's done the whole witch and angel thing, so if you want to for a little more orginial and differnet costume, I'd definetely choose the pirate. Plus, it's really cute looking! I hope I helped.


i'm 14 years oldand i'm a freshmen and i had never had a kiss before...is this embarrasing??? (link)
Well if that's embarassing for you, I must be majorly embarassing then because I'm a 15 year old sophmore and I've never had my first kiss, either. I just think of it this way ; when it DOES happen, it's not going to be over a dare or some stupid 2 second thing with a guy I didn't even like because I was pressured into it. It's going to be nice and special and because I really like the guy. So I wouldn't go wasting it, just wait and see what happens. I do admit though, it's a little embarassing, isn't it? But you shouldn't let it bug you. It's not like you're going to die unless you get your first kiss. :)


I hope I helped.


I was in love with this guy over the summer. We'll call him Don. Don broke up with me because he had feelings for his ex. I later found out they didn't get back together but had too much respect for myself to get back with him. So I did my best to get over Don. That's when about a week later I met Lenny. Lenny had fallen in love with me at first sight, while my emotions were still awol. Since then I've learned to love Lenny and I've found that I've never had someone make me as happy, not even Don. Lenny and I were at his house earlier, keep in mind we're a great couple, want to get married, the whole nine yards. But earlier, Don called me, we had small talk and he said he'd call later. Don still hasn't gotten back together with his ex after a month of being single. My question is, Should I talk to Don? Should I have feelings for him? Should I stay with Lenny or go back to Don? Why would Don call me after a month of not talking? (link)
Alright the REAL question here is, why WOULD you want to choose a guy that broke up with you in two seconds for his ex-girlfriend over a guy whose great and wants to marry you and everything and really loves you?

I suggest that you think about the situation. If you were to talk to Don, do you think you could possbily get feeling sfor him again, or no? If no, then I think you should talk to him, who knows? You guys could wind up friends, but if you could imagine yourself, I'd keep my distance from him unless you want to potentially ruin the current great relationship you have. And even if you did leave Lenny for Don, whose to say that Don won't leave you again in two seconds for some other girl and leave you hanging? I don't think Lenny would come back again the second time around to cheer you up.

Don is probably calling you because he misses you and he wants someone to just "fall back on", which is completley stupid. Also, he might want somebody to talk to, which like I said if you couldn't imagine yourself liking him, could do as a FRIEND. Guys always think they can just randomly call up their old girlfriends or any type of girl if the one girl they wanted didn't work out and the girl's going to be all comforting and want them back and be all sentimental and whatnot. Hopefully Don's just looking for friendship, and nothing more.

I hope I helped.


all my freinds are like super depressed and im starting to catch it to. so i tryed to cheer them up and guess what they seem to hate ME now what should i do. (link)
Ack, I have these same situations sometimes. They know you mean well and everything and that you want to cheer them up, but I've just learned that if they're not cheering up and they're just starting to get more pissed off, leave them alone for a bit and let them cool off.

Whenever you're first talking to them, and they seem upset over something, just ask them what's going on and everything and let them bash out on you because releasing their frustrations'll help them feel much better.

Then just let them know,"Well, I'll leave you to yourself for a bit so you can think or whatever so just IM me later or give me a call whenever you want to talk, alright? I hope you feel better soon." And just leave it to them whenever they're ready to talk to you or not, so then whenever they do call, you also know they're not going to be all snappy and upset and whatnot.

I hope I helped.


my boyfriend is two years younger than me. is it bad? i mean he acts alot older and we really do like eachother.. (link)
There's something alot of people say. "Age is but a number", and it is.

If you really like this guy and he acts older than he is, why NOT date him? Most guys don't even act the current age they ARE, they act younger so he sounds like a real catch to me, haha!

But if people are going to be sitting there talking about how he's younger than you, they're probably just jealous you got a guy and they don't. If you two like eachother, that's all that matters.

I hope I helped.


Okay, me and my frind are good friends, but we like the same dude. There's a roumour that dude that we like likes someone, so we are constantly squabbling. The signs point to me, the Knight and I talk and chat for a long time, and we have fun together, I enjoy his company, and I think he enjoys mine. There is going to be a all school dance possibly, should I ask hime before the Dragon does?

Aneis (link)
The real question is: should you waste away a good friendship over one guy? Is this guy REALLY that worth it?

Because I'm not trying to sound pesstimistic or anything, but most relationships whenever you're young do not last throughout the rest of your life, but I've seen my mother and other parents have tons of high-school friends or middle-school friends throughout their whole life. As I say,"chicks before dicks".

I mean I know there's the school dance and everything, but I wouldn't go competeing for him because you two aren't even aware of who this girl is that he likes. What if you were to ask him and it would turn out to be neither of you? Then you'd both be sitting there with broken hearts, and too busy getting all upset with eachother to be able to comfort one another.

I suggest yes, that if HE asks YOU, then sure go for it, but don't go asking him. If he does ask and you say yes, talk to your friend about it. Just be like,"I'm sorry, I know you like this guy too, but I really like him also, and if you were in my position, would you have turned him down? I don't think so, haha. But I'll tell you what. You can have a dance with him, huh? :]" And just talk it out and resolve this issue with her and like I mentioned in the example of what you could say to her, maybe let her snag a dance with the guy? It'll make her happy.

I hope I helped.


Do you know how to make faces on chatpit.com
(link)
Well, I've never heard of this Chatpit site, but I went onto it and I took a look around and I didn't see anything regarding to making any faces. So then I tried the next best thing, and Googled it up seeing if maybe someone's mentioned how to do it on the site or somewhere else, but nothing came up either. The next time you go into one of the chats, maybe ask someone in there whose made a face and ask them how they've done it. I'm sorry I couldn't be of much help to you, but I hope if you do talk to someone else in the chat, they'll be able to help you out more.


okay well my best guy friend ever, likes me...and i think i like him and he is going to ask me to homecoming,
but i just dont want things screwing up if something bad goes wrong, like if he asks me out, and we break up and wont be the same again, thats what im afraid of. but all my friends say that having a good friendship first makes the best relationships..
so should i just go and see where it takes me or what?

oh im f/15 (link)
Yes, just go and see where the everything goes whenever you guys hang out at the dance. Just first of all, have a great time and see if he flirts or anything and how you feel about it all. If you notice your feelings grow stronger then I think you should take a chance with him. Even though, yes some relationships can't return to that friendship level they once had, but if you guys work at it hard enough and ever were to break up, I'm sure you could go back to being friends. I've done it before with my ex-boyfriends.

If he does ask you out and you really do want to go out with him, like I said, go for it! But just talk to him about it. Be like,"I really do like you and I really do want to go out with you, but I'm just really worried. What if we were to break up, and then we wounded up hating eachother? I don't know if I could deal with that. I wouldn't want to lose you and have you hate me or not talking to me or something." And just talk it. I assure you, nothing'll go wrong to make the friendship awkward. Maybe even make a pact between the two of you.

My friend and her boyfriend did this because they were best friends for the longest time before they started dating. The first day they started dating ( or whenever they talked about it ) they just made themselves a little promise between eachother that no matter what happens, they'll always remain friends and talk to eachother.


I hope I helped.


What do you do if you fall in love with your best friend, and can't tell them? (link)
With this kind of situation, there's really only two options: let them know of your feelings for him, and just let them know that even if the feelings aren't mutual you'd rather be his best friend then anything else, and you don't want to lose them. Or, you can just sit there, keep on loving them, feel sad and never know if they might've indeed had mutual feelings for you, and nothing ever happens.

We only have one life, so why not just take some chances? The next time you guys are hanging out and talking, just be like,"____, I have something I want to tell you, and it's been taking me awhile to get up the courage to do so, but I just feel you should. I really like you alot, and I know that if you don't feel the same this might be a little awkward but I really hope we could go back to being best friend cause I'd rather be your best friend then nothing at all."

And if they doesn't feel the same, granted it might be a little weird at first, but just push those awkward feelings away and just talk to him like they're your best friend again and nothing ever happened, and slowly the awkwardness'll slip away, and everything should be able to return back to normal.

But hopefully it won't, because hopefully they'll feel the same for you as you do for them.

I hope I helped.


This summer my two close friends-jen and kelsey got really close with each other. it was hard to deal with cuz for awhile i wanted included in things anymore. i felt left out and resented them for it. i expressed my feelings to one of them, kelsey and then the other got angry with me. now things are okay, but they are fighting...like..insane. rumors are going on about kelsey having gone behind the others back with the others ex. i dont believe it..but my friend sure does. i dont know what to do. Jen has ditched me so many times for other people, and now she needs me, but im also good friends with kelsey. What do i do? who should i be loyal to, or how can i be loyal to them both of them without them gettign angry? please help!
15/f (link)
You just need to sit down and talk with the both of them. Let them know that you're aware that they're mad at eachother, but you're not going to hate the other just because they're in a fight. You'll be there for BOTH of them, and you'll talk to BOTH of them.

They just need to realize you have other friends and you need to be loyal to them too and it can't just be them, them, them. You should be able to talk to whoever you want and if they're going to get angry about it, they're not really your friend and tehy don't want you to have any other friends.

So just talk with them both and explain to them you're going to be friends with the both of them, and it's not like you're going to force them to hang out together or anything. They can become friends again on their own time whenever they want to, but for now you're friends with them both while they're fighting. I hope I helped.


my school has a secondary dance coming up on friday, and i don't know what to wear! i want to wear a skirt (not pants) if i can help it, but i don't know what i could wear for the top? maybe a dress??
also, i'm new to the school and i know there are guys that like me in my year. i'm scared that they are going to ask me to dance, and i have never EVER danced with a guy before, so how can i not panic about it?
:S
please someone help me!
thanks :D (link)
Well since you're going to wear a skirt, as do most girls do at the dances, just wear a cute tank top or a ( i call them beaters ) these things:

http://www.cobbtwenty8.com/images/products/girl.beater.pink_sm.jpg

Haha, and then maybe you could wear also a cute jacket over it, too!

I wouldn't really want to wear a dress unless it's going to be a formal dance cause like I said, most girls just dress in a skirt and a t-shirt or cami top if it's just a regular kind of school dance.

As for the dancing, it's perfectly fine! Slow dancing is a piece of cake. All you have to do is just put your arms around his shoulders and then sway back and forth a little, haha. As for fast dancing, since kids now-a-days I wouldn't techincally call it dancing though, just sit there and shake their butt, basically. What I do mostly is just sort of stand there and sway back and forth to with the music, because most people at dances tend to start there and talk anyways, even while they're dancing, so I don't go all over the place dancing, haha.


I hope I helped.


I'm so jealous of my friends. Whenever they talk about going to parties or their sexual experiences I just can't stand it. It makes me so angry. I've never done any of the things they've done (I realize some of those things are lies, but they all aren't. Especially if they can back up they're story.) Even things as simple as going on a date. I've never had a date or a kiss or anything. I've never been invited to a party. I've never done anything worthy enough to tell a story about. Unless you count "you had to be there" stories, which I don't. And it gets so bad that I get pissed off at them and I can't even be around them any more. So my question is: How do I get past my jealousy? How do I get rid of it? (link)
My friends do this to me sometimes too. They explain how they made out with somebody this weekend or something like that, and I too, get jealous, but I also think: "Well, whenever I get my first kiss it'll be good and I won't be gnawing off people's faces." Most people treat sex and kissing or something like it's just something to do over the weekdn for fun, but I think differently. I think it's with somebody special, so when you get a girl, it'll be nice and great and then your guy friends'll probably be jealous YOU got a great girl, and they just got parties.

Speaking of the parties, ask them if you can come along sometime to the next one. I'm sure they're not going to care if you invite yourself. It's a party! The more the merrier, eh? And just go around socializing and having a blast and get to know more people so then sooner or later, you'll be starting to get invites from more people, and not just inviting yourself. And I'm sure your friends'll let you go ; I mean, they are your friends, after all.

But if you still continue to be jealous, you just have to think of the things that you're better at than THEM wether it be school, sports, whatever. And just keep thinking that and slowly the jealousy might start to go away. Sometimes whenever I'm jealous, I just start thinking of what I said before or I just start looking at somebody or think of something else to get what they said off of my mind, and it usually works.


But I seriously suggest just going out, socializing with people, inviting yourself to the party along with your friends and just hang out and have an amazing time. Then you'll sooner or later have a thousands story to tell, too.

I hope I helped.


hey, well there is this guy i reeeeally like alot aaand well we dont know each other but im constantly checking him out soooooo i definitally know him i mean were not friends or anything we talk here and there but well anyway his girlfriend just broke up with him sooooo i was tinking about asking him to the dance or maybe asking him out buuut the problem is i dont want to ask him and find out that he doesnt like me but sometimes in class i see him staring at me and he acts hilarious around me as in he make s up jokes that make absolutly no sence buuuut i love them but he kinda acts a little shy around me to sometimes... i really like him an di really want to ask him out or to the dance but i am afraid that he is gonna say no and i am gonna be crushed!!! I want to know what i could do ask him out and get rejected or be happy and he says yes or if maybe i would just lay low and see if he asks first... and about him sstsring st me and stuff like that what could that mean? (link)
Well, I'm going to give you the same advice I just gave a guy last night who asked basically the same problem, and he messaged me back and let me know that it worked out.

Just firstly, show him how great you are. At school just hang out with, laugh at all his jokes and everything, and then whenever you're talking to him, just be like,"Hey, do you want to go to the dance together? I think it'd be so much fun!" And just let it start off as a friendly based thing to go together, so there'd be less pressure in asking and less nerves off having to be rejected, cause who would reject a friend?

And as for the staring and jokes and everything, it could possbily mean he likes you. Guys are always confusing whenever it comes to signals, so what a girl might be taking in as flirting and whatnot, the guy could only be thinking he's just being friendly, so you have to be careful with that one.

Then at the dance, REALLLLYYY show him how great you are. Flirt with him, hug him, dance with him, compliment him and everything and just have a lot of fun. Then at the last slow dance, just let him know of your feelings for him. Just be like,"Well, I have something to tell you. I like you, ____. I mean, I wanted to ask you here to the dance as sort of a more date kind of thing, but I was afraid you'd say no, so I just asked as friends. But, if I don't find out how you feel about me, I'm basically going to go nuts, haha." And also let him know that if he doesn't feel the same way towards you, then can you guys just remain friends, because you'd rather be his friend then completely lose him. ( but hopefully, we don't have to think about that cause hopefully he'll say yes! :D )

Also, if he DOES say no and you guys just remain friends, think of it this way. You've gained more courage in letting someone know how you feel ( which takes ALOT of guts ), you've had an amazing night at the dance, and you're still able to talk to him and everything and have a good time with him. So, it can also be taken in as a good thing, too. Rejection is a part of life, that everyone has to face sometime or another.

But like I said, hopefully you won't have to deal with rejection!

I hope everything works out, and I hope I helped!


My friends at skool talk to me different then the rest ... i reckon because i am different they talk to me like im 2 but i'm not im mostly the same age as they are
I can't stand it

--DifferenttoThem (link)
I would have a talk with them about it. One day while you guys are sitting there just talking and hanging out, just mention,"hey, I don't know if you've noticed, but whenever you guys are hanging out around me, you talk differently then you do with other people. I'm not trying to rag on you guys or anything, but when you do, you kind of talk to me like I'm some 2 year old or something." And just talk it out with them and resolve it. Just because you're different, they shouldn't be TALKING to you differently, too. Everybody's different, and I don't think there's a million ways to talk to each person in the world differently. They should just be talking to you normally. But if you do mention it and talk about it with them and just say it all in a calm tone and tell them you're not trying to be rude or anything, then I'm sure they won't feel like their being attacked or something, and they'll be able to talk about it and try to resolve the problem. They might not even be noticing they're talking to you like that. Sometimes whenever I talk to people, I just talk so I have no clue if I'm ever talking to people differently or what. I hope I helped.


I'm 13 and I want a boy to fall in love me with me and me to fall in love with him!! Like I read books about girls and boys falling in love and it makes me want love SOOOOOOO BADLY!! Like the book lovely bones with Lindsey and Samuel how they are so in love. I want a boy to fall in love with me and us to be perfect together. Not the kind of boy who pinches your ass when you just met and forgets to call you. I want a mature guy who waits to have sex and stuff like that. WILL THIS EVER HAPPEN? I'M GOING TO JUST BE DEVASTATED IF It DOESNT!! (link)
Woah, woah, woah.

First of all, you're only 13. You have your whole entire life ahead of you to wait to fall in love and everything, but for know you're young ; have fun and if a great guy happens to come along your path, date him and have a great time and who knows? You could even fall in love now. But you need to also experience heart break, mistakes, past relationships so whenever you DO find that really great guy, you'll definetely know it. But like I said, you're only 13.

But also, just remember: I'm not trying to sound like, pesstimistic or anything, I wish it was real too, but most realtionships aren't like the movies loves where everything is absolutely perfect or anything you read in those romance books. There's all sorts of bad things and even though two people could be in love, they still find faults sometimes in eachother and have disagreements and fights and issues and such.

But trust me, I have never seen a mature 13 year old who wants to wait to have sex. 13 year olds shouldn't even really be THINKING about sex, anyways. Just wait till your much older to start looking for that type of guy, cause as guys get older they start to become somewhat more mature and you'll like them better.

So, like I said, you're young. Live life and enjoy it and see what guys come and go, and trust me, someday you're love will come along, but I don't think it'll be for a good while. And it'll be worth the wait, believe me.


I hope I helped.
