what happens when you find yourself flirting with the guy your "best friend" has a crush on? not as if you like him that way or anything, you just want to see what happens? (aka not like you'd ever go out with him. you just want to see if you're likeable) (link)
uh oh. BIG uh oh. that's what happens. ever watch those cartoons where a giant anvil comes dropping out of the sky and hits someone? and you hear the noise getting louder and louder as it happens? well.. your on the track to that happening. and you need to get onto a different track ASAP. it's never ok to like the same guy as your best friend. i repeat, NEVER. you claim you don't like him, so ok, that's cool. you still can't flirt with him. it's just wrong. you wouldnt be a true best friend, and true best friends never flirt with their best friends guy. EVER. and what do u mean you want to see if your likeable? of course you are! everyone is likeable by someone. and if you want to see if your likeable.. you have millions of other guys to flirt with. so stop flirting with this one.. and go get the next one.


rumors suck, they cause so much drama
one time i heard one about my own mama
its not her fault that shes 300 pounds
and is known for releasing random shotgun rounds
the things people say, they are always so mean
like that i have a mole thats strangely green
it was only a paint spill, a huge misconception
but it was blown out of proportion by pure deception
so next time u hear something and dont know its true
shut ur freaking mouth or i swear to god il sue

-Rumors, by random poet (link)
dear random poet,
i love your poem.. but do i detect some bitter reason behind it? as in what made you write it?


Hi....im about 200 lbs over weight but i just bought a sexy two peice for spring break. Do you think this will turn the guys on...or make them run? (link)
um, well everybody has different views on what turns them on and what turns them off. i guess it depends on the person. if you do send some guy running off in the other direction, then dont worry.. hes not the guy for you.


tara what do you do when valentines day is a week away and the guy you like is going out with a freshman you know that is really sweet but you want to break them up because you like him!!???? oh and did i mention valentines day is coming up and please even my best friend is getting something but from a mad annoying person so anyway i though i would ask you because i love you and im lonely!
love: despressed writer (link)
Dear depressed writer,
I love you too! And I don't have a valentine either. So no worries! You can always be MY valentine as a last resort. I think that valentine's day is overrated. I mean, people put so much hope and anticipation into one day and are left severely disappointed. Sure, its GREAT if you have that special someone to share it with... but isn't it nice if you are surprised one day with roses instead of expecting them? Its not nearly as fun when you know your getting a gift then when you get one randomly. And screw the guy you like. Your obviously not a freshie which is good.. and if he cant see that your better than her, then he has definite issues.

Is your friends valentine REALLY mad and annoying? Or are you just mad and annoyed at him because you think your the only one with no sweetie on the day for couples? Because if thats the case, you gotta do a double take. Look around you. More than half the people out there are not getting valentines this february 14th.. thats a lotta singles.. and a lotta potentials for next year.

so, will you be my valentine?


me and my boyfriend have been together for almost two years now. last Saturday i was at the mall with my friend and we saw him with another girl. we didnt see him kissing her or anything, so we came up with all these crazy ideas. i decided to ask him about it and he confessed to cheating on me and hooking up with this other girl. i couldnt beleive it. he keeps doing all these sweet things for me now and hes begging me for forgiveness. hes making me feel really special and reminding me why i was going out with him in the first place. i have mixed feelings. i dont know whether i should forgive him or not. if i forgive him, will he hurt me again. i dont think i can handle that again. it hurt so bad and i dont want to feel that again. should i just forget him? should i forgive him? i dont know. im so mixed up inside. i need some advice. some GOOD advice. will you help me? (link)
of course i will help you. if it were me, i would ditch the guy. any loser who cheats on me is so not worth my time. you dont need someone you cant trust, someone who is going to disrespect you. maybe he really is sincere in his apology, and really does love you and not this other girl. but how are you supposed to know if hes telling the truth when he lied to you before? how can you trust him again after he LIED to you. once a cheater, almost always a cheater is my motto. of course, everybody deserves a second chance. so if you want to give him that second chance, go for it. maybe you can chalk up the incident as temporary insanity on his part and laugh at it down the road.. maybe he does it again down the road though.. and no third chances. he blew it twice.. and its time for you to move on. personally i would move on after the first time. hope it all works out.. remember that you want a guy who will treat you right.. not wrong. and there are plenty of good eggs out there.. you just have to throw away the rotten one first.


Dear Tara,
My boyfriend just borke up with and said that he had so many gurls that liked him he didnt want just one. Then he said that he hasnt felt the connection for 3 weeks! Should I still be friends with him or move on and ignore him?
Dumped by someone dumb (link)
wow.. girl you wernt just dumped by someone dumb, you were just dumped by the stupidest man alive. actually we cant really call him a man since he doesnt seem to have any "man" quallities.. so stupidest BOY alive. first off, he is a major @$$ for telling you that he hasnt felt the connection for three weeks.. i mean what guy in their right mind tells that to the girl they are breaking up with?! he is SO into himself if hes telling you that all these girls like him. what a jerk. i feel sorry for the girls that like him.. they should know better. you can do WAY better than this bonehead. definitely move on. there are probably PLENTY of guys who want to be with you. dont totally rule out the friends option tho, he may be a sucky boyfriend but he could prove to be a good friend. if hes just as bad of a friend tho, then detach yourslef from him once and for all. you dont need a bad boyfriend OR a bad friend.


hello beautiful tara! i had a question for you and am in deep need of your advice. so friday afternoon my mom wasnt home, and so this guy came over and we hooked up. well...now its monday and its like nothing happened. i thought maybe he'd be a little different...but i was wrong. i wanna talk to him and ask him about it...but i dont think i should. its not like i hooked up with him so all of a sudden we'd be best friends and live happily ever after. no. cuz thats not why. but i mean...shouldnt he have changed something? he admitted he had deeper feelings for me but it seems like all he ever does is put me down....and he said that was because he liked me...but i just dunno. and when i say we hooked up, understand...it wasnt some huge thing. we basically just made out alot, so its not like i gave him my virginity and now i want him to be nice in return. nuh uh. nothing like that. but i just dunno...i love you tara and i hope you can help me with my little dilema!

-wondering- (link)
dear wondering,
aww thanks! i love you too! whoever you are.. and i would love to help with your dilemma. there is nothing wrong with hooking up, its totally harmless and totally fun. its one of those things where you can just have fun with a guy with no emotional strings attached. but in this case.. it doesnt seem like thats the way things went. you sound disappointed that nothing happened. as if deep down you expected him to want to maybe pursue a relationship but just didnt want to admit that? its happened to me before and i was puzzled until i realized i actually wanted to go out with the guy. it was good that you didnt do anything more than make out with him, because that shows your not an easy girl and you wont just hook up with anybody. he should have picked up on the hint, which he failed to do. and the way he said he had feelings for you deep down? make sure that wasnt just some line he gave you to get you to hook up with him. and the way you say he teases you? that was so middle school when a guy teased you because he liked you. not anymore. your man should respect you, and if you dont want him to tease you, then speak up! hes not worth it if hes going to be dispespectul to you. as for talking to him about this weekend.. wait. if he doesnt seem to pay attention to you other than the fact hes looking to get some more, then you are wasting your time. move on to another prospect, one who will like you for who you are.. not how you kiss.


okay well two of my best friends who ive been really close with a while all of a sudden have been ditching me a ton. we used to hang out with eachother like all the time but lately theyve been going and hanging out with this other group and its been pissing me off cuz i feel like were falling apart i guess? i mean i have a ton of other awesome friends i can hang out with but i just really miss hanging out with them bc we rly used to be close. what should i do to get them back? (link)
yuck. i know how that feels. you need to talk to your friends. have a discussion, but don't fight. tell them what you told me, and that its bothering you and you dont want to lose them. and keep in mind that it takes two to have a friendship. they might be ditching you to hang out with other friends.. but have you ever ditched them??


sweep my kitchen floor whore haha that rhymes (link)
how about no hoe? thats a better rhyme :)


Iam a boy and i was wonndering how many times a week you masturbate (link)
thats a personal question.. and an immature one..


okay me and my exboyfriend broke up last year but weve still been hooking up a lot lately..i dont know if hes just using me but he does tell me still cares and i really cant get over him becuase i love him and i dont know if i shud leave him or stay.. (link)
huh.. well you didnt leave me with too much information here so youre going to have to ask yourself some questions.. was it you who broke up with him or he with you? why did you break up? (if it was because of other ppl.. you better make sure those other ppl are history if ur gonna get back together with him) (and if HE broke up with you.. why?) chances are he really DOES still care.. if he just wanted to use a grl he could find another one to hook up with.. unless hes a huge jerk and knows he can get you because you like him still. make sure he respects you. thats KEY. if you tell him you want to stop hooking up.. and he ditches you.. then you know he was using you and its way past time to move on. if he does respect your feelins and values though and STILL pays attention to you.. then youve got a keeper, and make sure he dosnt get away this time.. good luck


hey.
Is getting drunk every weekend bad? cause its so fun. too much of a good think is a bad thing right? but it doesnt seem to be affecting me physically or anything. like my atheltics are still superb n shit. aight thanks..... i jsut wanted to ask a question that didnt deal with love and relationships...and teachers zippers being open.
Mr. Dude (link)
Mr. Dude,
maybe its not affecting you now but it could in the long run..and just think that if your coach found out you were drinking, you could be kicked off your team.. now how bad would that suck? in my own opinion, drinking this young is so not worth the consequences... wait until you're a senior to get stupid.. put grades and family and friends first.. then go wild when you know you've done well! it will be like a celebration almost, so worth the wait. or, if you so choose, get drunk now. just NOT every weekend. think about all the trouble you could get in if you were caught, and how it affects you.


I have gone out with a good deal of girls, and i been with a good number too but its not because im a player or anything. It seems like everytime i start to like a girl i think it will be amazing and work out great and everything but it always ends up either they dont feel the same way about it or the girl just isnt compatible for me. It has got to the point where i come into relationships feeling like things are doomed. what the hell is the matter with me? (link)
well, you're young yet.. at least i'm assuming you are.. you have plenty of time to find the girl thats right for you! not EVERY relationship you happen to find yourself in is gonna work... in fact most of them won't. but you don't have to feel doomed about it. JUST becausea few relatuionships havnt worked, you dont have to be stressed. you WILL find the perfect match for you, and the feelings will be mutual. but for now, RELAX! take things day by day, one at a time.. and you could find The One when you least expect her.


hahahaha ok... so today.. in wh.. i have a male teacher as a student teacher.. and hes really cool right.. ok so i noticed today that his zipper was undone.. and i was thinking to myself.. hmm should someone say something.. or would that be kinda... umm awkward. well if what would u do. haha im cracking up laughing.. love u my tara ann!! (mmbop) ;) (link)
hahah i love you too madison lynn!!
lmao i would have died.. and of embarrassment becaues i would have told him.. imean the poor guy deserves to know his zipper is open! but tell him in secret like when hes at his desk.. not in front of the whole class haha.. awkward// yes.. but so worth the laugh :-)

GOd blessed the broken road, that led me straight.. to you!


Ok. The guy i like likes me too. But the thing is he hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend or anything! we were talkin and i asked him why he hadn't and then he's all like "what you wanna go see a movie?" GOD! WHAT'S HIS PROBLEM!?!?! HELP PLEASE! (link)
he has a serious problem.. it doesnt seem he actually LIKES you as a girlfriend and he might just want to use you to hook up.. and the way he asked you to a movie was extremely rude.. think about the fact how he only asked AFTER you brought up the subject of going out.. and also keep in mind the way he asked it..as if he felt he HAD to ask it.. if i were you i would reevaluate and find another boy who will respect your feelings and ask you out because he likes you.. this one is totally lame


okay....heres the deal, i got into a fight with one of my friends, like the biggest fight u can possibly get into with a friend and we apologized and everything but she just keeps going to my one friend and just talks crap about me to her and she agrees with her! im just like do i have ne real friends? my question for u is this....what should i do about them b/c i have confronted them about this several times but it just does not seem to be working! (link)
ok this fight of yours.. was it a MAJOR fight or was it something that you both blew totally out of proportion.. it depends on what it was ABOUT. was it your fault? hers? both of your faults? that needs to be determined..what she is doing is wrong.. she shouldnt be going and talking smack about you to other friends.. and that other "friend" shouldnt be agreeing.. and you confronted them about it yet they didnt listen? my advice to you? dump them, my friend. because they are so not worth it and not true friends..
don't be upset though, because I'M still your friend ;-)


How come you hate SF!?





Just kidding Tara, you silly.

Erich. (link)
haha erich.. you're quite the jokester.. idk why i hate SF.. is it maybe because of everything he has ever done?! ;-)


what if my initials are mp? (link)
well then i don't hate you.. just so you know :)


ok im ugly and stupid and im in love with a hottie named tara. i mean i have red hair and freckles and this girl hates me; but im in love with her. what should i do? (link)
haha i bet your not ugly.. but i can see why you would be in love with me.. i'm just so amazing.. lol. im jp. whoever you are i probably don't hate you. unless you're initials are SF. but we won't get into that.


Hey Sweetie! K well I had this "serious" boyfriend for a while and im having mixed feelings about him. ya know like do i like you or do i like someone else. like when im with him i kinda like him but when im not i mean hey im a big flirt. so like do you think i should give guys a rest all together. concentrate on one or what? i need help idk what to do?? xox me xox (link)
xox you xox,
haha well if you're having mixed feelings.. it's never good to drag the guy along while you sort it all out in your head. it's just not fair to him if your'e stringing him along JUST beacause you don't know what to do. so if you're having if-fy feelings.. i would take a break from the relationship. it's only fair to you AND him.. so neither of you gets hurt. you wouldn't want to lose a friend as well would you? if you do take a break and realize that your serious guy IS the one for you, then it would be best to let him know ASAP. but take some time off first.. you mentioned you might like another guy.. is there one in particular you were thinking of? because thinking of another guy while having a serious guy.. that almost can count as cheating. and if your not being true to your boyfriend.. well you know what to do. it's time to reevaluate what you really want. you want this new guy, go for it. but don;t let your boyfriend get hurt in the process. i wouldn't take a break from all guys unless you really want to. because maybe going after this new guy will help sort things out. if you don't try something with him, you won't ever know what could happen.
a little (or a lot) of flirting is fun.. so if you DO decide to take a break from guys.. well don't totally rule out flirting.. because it's amazing lol. good luck with whatever you decide.. im sure it will be the right thing.
