I have had this one comforter for a long time and now it has holes in it and stains and all that kinda stuff. I want a new one soon, but my mom wants to make me a new one, but she's really a busy mom- she is a pilot- and I know I'll almost be in college by the time she's done! Pleez Help me!

Go to Walmart or Target and get one. I know it may sound tacky but it will be cheap and you may find one ultra cheap. Good luck happy shopping xoxo

build muscle. Try lifting wieghts. You wont be fat but built and not SKINNY or w/e. And tell those people to shutup be like is saying that making you feel less fat? .. b/c people like that are complete jerks.

My sister and i sing. And we sing well. Sometimes friends and family will ask us to sing but if we are not together, we feel uncomfortable doing it alone. Alot of the times we need a few drinks to loosen us up. How do you get over the fear of singing in front of large groups and also how to do it without someone?

It may sound completely REDICULOUS... but I'll say what my Daddy always tells me. And im not a daddys girl or a suck up but sometimes the best things you will ever learn comes straight from the mouths of your parents. Imagine everyones in their underwear. It may sound completely strange but it works time and again for my sister.. shes like to be on stage and sing. Picture them as if they're silly just for being there. And there the ones who are being silly. Just think of it this way... alot of them you might not even know.. so who cares what they think if you dont know them? And if you do know them.. who cares

I seriously think I might have a problem. I'm goign otu witht his boy and I totally love him. I know I do. The only problem is, once guys start likign me alot and really falling for me I start ebcomign a total bitch. I'll say things on purpose to piss them off or to get them upset. I can't understand why. This isnt the only relation ive been in. Ive been in one for about a year before too and i did the same thing. I'm 18 too. any ideas why this is happening? its kidna like i cant stop either. im starting to think im evil or sumthing.

Get a journal or therapy. I mean, you cant help you get snappy but you might have a slight disorder. Im not coming out and saying your mental Im just saying something might be up. Its not abnormal some people just get really cranky . Maybe until you sort out your feelings and change up your attitude you shouldnt be in a relationship.. b/c everyones gunna spread news around that your a big 'biotch' and stuff and Im sure your not up to that. Its a really good start though that you have recognized your problem... you've pointed out to yourself that you are kinda nasty to the guys... I dont think your evil I just think your the type that is grossed out by people being all over you and lovey dovey. Its not being immature or gay or anything like that its just probably the fact that maybe your really independant. I know alot of people who are like that... and they're not mean they just like to be independant and dont need people slobbering on them just b/c they dont like the feeling of being followed and just being in commitment. But theres still tons of hope. Id just try figuring out why you get so moody... are you really independant? If so...try meeting a guy whos independant and not all touchy feely on the phone with you every minute. Find a guy that matches your charteristics. And remember.. your not evil... hehe


xoxo Good Luck xoxo

OMG I got my haircut 2day after school....so I got there and when I sat down I told her how I wanted it. I specifically said 2 1/2 inches. Okay so she turned me away from the mirror for a while and all I heard was snip snip and I saw hair falling to the floor. I didn't even realize but she cut 5 1/2 inches off cause she thought that was what I said! It's so ugly and it's about to my chin! UgH! i dont wanna show my face 2morrow! heLp me! has this ever happened to u be4?

Oh my gosh! Bad hair cuts? Yuck! Gross! Evil! I hate them... but I can so relate to that... maybe not in my experience but I've had things that equal up. My best friend once did the same thing as you and had her hair chopped like up to her ears, a little higher. It was a BOY cut. It was terrifying... but look on the bright side. Some celebrities go with short hair. And they look cute... think of it .. your hair could be worse. And dont tell ne one in skewl u didnt want the cut cause then they'll no it gets to you look how Julia Stiles and Kirsten Dunst style their hair short.. or look for really cute short hairdos online.. look it up on google or yahoo. And spice it up... if you cant find ne thing AT all.... inbox me again and Ill help in the search or im x mercy me 14 x.... ill totally help u b4 tomorrow... good luck.... and spice up your makeup for tomorro... give yourself a NEW look rather than a bad 1... it cant be that bad!

GOOD LUCK XOXO

I am 23 years old. I just moved to California from Alaska with my boyfriend. The problem is, i do not think i love him. I am still in love with my guy friend back home. I am very unhappy in my current realtionship. I told him i wanted to go back home to Alaska. He agreed, but i am afraid once we get there, I will not want to be with him anymore. I want to be happy. My guy friend back home loves me also and i know that he would be with me and we would be happy but i do not want to break my boyfriends heart. What do i do to make this easy for us all?

Tell him you would never want to live a lie. Tell him that hes sweet, list all his charecteristics that are good, but tell him it wouldnt be fair to him to stay with him forever, but all the time not feeling the way he was. You have to tell him that if you didnt do this it would be mean to him. And that you care for him too much to deceive him. Go for the other guy if hes your true love. Dont live unhappy. Of course the guy your with now might not love what you have to tell him but he'll understand it a hell of a lot better. Good luck --xoxo

I'm starting school in like 2 weeks. I'm nervous because I made the cheer squad this year. Every one said I would make it but I wasn't sure. I did end up making it but idk.. iI'm just so nervous that I'll mess up. any advice?

Just do the same thing you did to try out. Think of all those girls that didnt make it... and what you have that they dont. Just be yourself... you can only try your best. And people would know that you arent bad if you made the squad. Just be glad you did :-D


good luck...xoxo

i have a boyfriend who i love with all my heart and he always says he loves me and all this and i say i love him back and hes like yeah yeah i know and all this but then when we talk online he like starts all this stuff like u dont love me and i know your gonna breakup with me and all kinds of things like that. how do i make him believe that i really do love him and im not gonna break up with him? please help me!

First of all he just wants you to feel bad for him. Be like i love you with all my heart... but i feel like your attention starved. When you see him, show him you love him. Give him a kiss or something... or w/e level your at in your relationship. Hang out with him, invite him over where you guys are just alone and not in public and you can say anything you want with no disruption. But whatever you do, don't have him bugging you for attention like that. Its rude of him... hes accusing things of you that arent true. If he continues saying that just reply saying i would never lie to you ... if i didnt love you... you'd see it... there is nothing I would ever do to show that b/c i love you. Say something sweet.. but make sure he acts the same!

xoxo good luck

Ok, I like this guy. He is a very good friend of mine, and i trust him with anythin. well, He likes me too, and he admits it. if wea chillen togetha hell gimme a kiss.. or he'll hold my hand or hug me, He does it infront of our friends too. but idk wut we are to eachotha. we dont have the title of b/f and g/f but id liek to be more than jsut friends, even tho he is 3 years older than me, it doesnt bother me. ive known him for some time now and i have feelings for him liek ive neva had for anyone before. what do i do?

If you want to get together go for it. Tell him you want to be official and that your feelings are the same and its time to take your relationship to a higher level. If he loves you like the way it sounds, he will understand completely and you'll be there. Theres nothing stopping you go ahead... and dont be shy... he sounds like he feels the same!

i was @ a lake w/ lyk 25 of my friends and i was on my way to the tent. 3 or 4 of my guy friends gagged my and took me in the water.they held my arms back and took off my clothes...one of them fingered me then held my legs open while the last one idk wut u would call it but he had sex w/ me...in the water...idk wut to do...help!

Thats rape! And thats the ultra disrespect, most degrading thing a 'friend' could ever do to you... none of them are your friends and you should tell your parents and take them to court and earn your respect... every DROP of it back. And you better teach them a lesson b/c they may go ahead and do it to other girls and go ahead and disrespect the whole human race. Its your responsibility to teach them asses a huge lesson..

good luck xoxo

one time my cousin and i went to the beach in florida, and we stayed in the condo. next to ours, there were two guys. so one day they walked up to us and just asked our names. and then they walked away and started laughing. and everytime we walked by their condo they like yelled at us and invited us to their pool and stuff. is that flirting or are they making fun of us???

Its probably their immature way of flirting. Lol.. b/c if they were making fun of you they wouldnt invite you to swim.. they wouldnt even want to be with you. But they really were immature if they were like yellling and stuff. But... hey... what can i say most guys are immature even at age 40.

well i have this boifriend and i have een goinout wit hym for over 3 month n i really like hym and people told hym that i have been kissing other guys and i havnt so how do i get hym to belive me

well this one isnt too hard. Just go up to him and say do you trust me more than you trust the rest of the world? Have I ever proved unfaithful to you? And then tell him all the trust you have in him, explain. Make him have reasons to believe you. Tell him how much you love him and how you have no other reason to be kissing other people when you have him... which is more than you can ever ask for.

somethin sweet like that

good luck xoxo

I have autistic triplet brothers who are 9 1/2 years old. My mother had them for the first 5 years, then the father had them for 2 years and now my mom has them again. She always complaining about how hard her life is and she wants to go crazy and she says sometimes she wants to put them in homes because they drive her so crazy. How can i get her to appriciate my brothers more and understand that she has done so well with them and to not give up?

Well before your mom gets home for work or while shes out make your brothers do something sweet. Have them all make her cards (if you can get them to, or help them a bit if they need it) or have them help you make a dinner... and she'll see there sweet side. Tell her its her own sons and she cant do that. Make them show some manners and she'll see they're not bad. Also ... offer to baby sit or take them out for a walk or something to give her SOME free space. Teach them some manners and let her see theyre sweeet... and show her some baby pictures of them. She'll warm up... plus you should explain how mean that really is to say about her own sons. Good luck xoxo -- ps offer to do more chores, take her stress away, some ppl say things they dont mean under stress

Ok i have a huge problem. See tomorrow i start school and my parents told me that i have to take this other person to school w/ me. Well He is just so happens to be my moms boss's little brother. Unfortunatly he is my age. i really dont want to take because i know my mom and his brother will try to hook us up. what should i do?

Well, you dont walk to disobey your mom, but just talk to her in private. Just say straight out "Mom, Im not in to him so plez dont say anything to your boss". Your mom cant say to her boss your not taking him b/c that might just make him be mean and screw up her job... lol you get what i mean? If her relationship with her boss isnt extra friendly she might just be doing it to get on his/her good side. Lol.. maybe the kids nice. If your mom starts acting like she wants to hook you guys up.. just say I like someone else and Im really not interested. Good luck xoxo

My best friend has been acting really weird lately. My other b/f just got home from Kansas the other day and she wouldn't even play with us. She didn't talk to me on the way home from her play and she always wants to do stuff with little kids then hang with us. Whats wrong?

Ok whats wrong? This girl is extremely immature. She wants to do stuff with little kids? She rather hang out with little kids than you guys? Shes just immature and she really is stooping down to a wierd level. Ignore it... its nothing to be jealous of. Shes giving up time with mature friends her age who understand her to little people. Dont be jealous. Just call her up and just say straight out... whats up? Where have you been? Questions similar to that. Just ask her... its not even an awkward situation to be in.... just a really retarded one... good luck

There is a boy I like so much I mean i Have the biggest crush on and he's everything I ever wanted in a boi he athletic,funny, great dancer and so cute well there is many girls that like him.me and him are cool i think he knows i like him but everytime something might happen between us someother gurl gets in the way and im not the type of girl that messes up relationships so i just back off but school is starting soon and im gonna see him again and hopefuly he's single but im trying to get his attention without screwing up and i dunno how to handle those situations very well...HELP PLZZ

first of all you might not want to try and deal with the guy EVERYONE likes. B/c when you do... if you do finally go out w/ him... there are still girls all over him and its hard to get them away... and that doesnt even mean he WANTS that attention. All im saying to you is it might be hard. But you cant help your feelings, no one can. What I would do is get more alone time. If you guys REALLY are cool then it shouldnt be a problem if you asked him to hang out one day. I mean... try and get a little closer. If you guys were just chillin at your house your not in public and no one can really interfere with that. Just talk about anything... if your online.. try asking him who he likes or what he feels about you. FLIRT!! And get extra time away from all those other annoying girls. Make time and jokes and connections with him that no other girl gets. Make your relationship even if its just a friendly one different than the rest of them. Get to be reallly tight and I guarentee results... and fast. B/c the other girls will just realize you have something with him that they dont and they'll just quickly fade away and buzz off if you know what I mean...


good luck

what can i do to like get somewhere in writing i really wanna b a writer when i grow ^!!

Hm... try reading some poem books. Really look at the words and techniques. Also, when your school year starts, or if it already has, go to lunch during english, and ask for help ... or advice on poems. There have to be some good online guides. Your possibilites are quite open, you just gotta take a risk or two and leave yourself time to do it. If you want me to give you an open opinion on a writing piece, try leaving one in my inbox. I'm super interested, and brutally honest.... yet not harsh or rude. I love to write and tell stories and make up poems. I absolutely LOVE it. So im the right person to ask. Please leave one in my inbox i will be so excited!

Good luck
xoxo

i just started going out with this guy i meet at cokemusic playing the matching game thing there. well i dont know what he looks like. he says he has hazel eyes and blonde hair. he sounds really cute. well he doesnt have a scanner and cant give me a picture. he told me his name and age etc. before i told him mine. im pretty sure its true {{the info. he gave me}} well i want to know what he looks like and i really dont know what to talk about. all we talk about is cokemusic.com so i dont know i think i need more to say to him and stuff. im 13 and he just turned 14. im going to turn 14 november 16 2004. well i dont know what to do someone help!! he sounds sweet. i know i dont know him that well but i want to. im really confused.

Id say as hard as it might be.... dont give out your info. And stop 'going out'. Because obviously if you dont know eachother it really wont last long. And if all you talk about is Coke Music... your barely in a relationship.... barely. And no matter what or who he says he is... he can be a 60 year old man.. no matter how old you want to believe he was. And sooo many people a year get abducted for getting in trouble and giving out info online. Seriously. dont put yourself in harm... its cool to make buddies online but stop telling him personal things about him and just say you want to be friends... that relationships cant exactly work out online. I dont recommend it... I've had friends who actually try that and totally run into trouble....... please..... go w/ my advice.

good luck
xoxo

What time in the day should you work out? (mourning, afternoon, night?)

And does stretching help lose wight??

-Zero

stretching helps you be more fit when you do work out so you dont get tired or hurt yourself. Morning is the best time, before you start your day so you have a full day ahead of you.
