My cousin/best friend is basically giving up on life. I had her join an after school activity with me but then she quit. Then she said shes just gonna stop working well in school and not worry about anything anymore. This is basically because of her peers and family. People think shes a pothead, and i siad "well maybe because you put on your myspace you smoke pot when you really dont" and her sister tells her shes a screw up and doesnt deserve to be on this planet. What can I do to help my cousin out and turn her back to normal and if not better? (link)
no one should give up on life! you are put here for a reason and no one is a screw up no matter what anyone says she's not. you just need to make her feel wanted. go through old scrap books or photo albums and show her all the good times ya'll use to have. as well as that help her realize that she should focus on school because without and education you wont get very far in life. and if she is smoking pot then help her get help that what you are ther for is to look out for each other! just help her the best way that you can she need you right now. and you never turn your back on family they need you and it's obvious that she needs you. good luck i hope that things work out for you.=)


can you please help me, i'm about 5'7 130ish pounds, i guess you can say i'm skinny, people tell me i am skinny & pretty but i have no self-confidence, i always feel so ugly! please help!! i rate high thanks (link)
well sometime we don't believe people that tell us we are pretty and have a nice figure. but (as corny as it sounds) look in the mirror every morning and tell yourself "i am beautiful" and "i know i look good" think positive and don't put yourself down. don't be so hard on yourself i'm sure you are beautiful and have no reason to worry. just remember think positive about your self..

i cut....
it's so addicting and i can't stop. i love everything about cutting but i know i have to stop this...
please help (link)
cutting is addicting and really hard to stop but your only hurting yourself physically! i think that you should tell you parents and or a trusted adult. they can help you get help. it will be the best thing that you can do for yourself and if you get help for yourself you will be able to take care if the prolbem. slowly but surly. things like that take time but help is avaliable. take care of yourself. hope this helped


Ok.....so guys...people at school call me a slut like all the girls and stuff...but i really don't think I am...and like they all say that guys love sluts..but i dont know....i meen I really dont think I am a slut..but guys do you like sluts or no...and what turns you on about a girl the most???

thanks (link)
well i know i am a girl and all but to answer your question, sluts are only a piece of ass regardless if you like it or not they just want sex not strings attached and that is a fact. hope that helped your situation.


welllll .. i made a HUGE mistake and umm kissed another boy while i was going out with my boyfriend and well he didnt dump me exactly and he always brings it up though =| idn what to do i cant live with this anymore. what should i do ? (link)
if it was a mistake and you actually told him he should give you some credit! atleast you told him most girls wont tell the man they are with. but he is probably just hurt and dosen't know how to deal with it. just talk to him and try to explian to him how it happened and explain that it was an accident. you didn't mean it and it wont happen again! good luck with your man girl!


is it normal to not like it when other girls are around the guy you like??? (link)
yeah it's natural to not want other girls around the guy you like. most of the time your either over protective or just jealous! don't be jealous because if he likes you than you have nothing to worry about. hope you get your man. =)


Hey, there's this guy,...let's call him *Gavin*. Well, i dont know *Gavin* that well. but this is what i do know,...he's a football player, he's not real smart, he friends with alot of people and he's nice and funny, and a little retarded sometimes,...and i think he's shy,...but i kind of like *Gavin* but i dont know him that well,...what should i do to get to know him better? or for him to notice me? (link)
well if you like him then make an attempt to talk to him. ask him if he would like to hangout sometime. get to know him and if you really like him after you know the "real" him. and if he likes you then things will happen for you. just let nature take is course. good luck girl!


Okay well, I like this Boy named jonathan. But I am afraid to ask him out. What if he says no or somthing . Well the most basic thing is that I am really shy and dont know what to say to them. umm. like what I say I have his phone number or I can talk to him at school but what should i say to him??? Please help if you give me a good answer then I will give you a rating so if you want your rating to go up you can answer this seriously and I will for sure give you a five is if it's good advice (link)
well to answer you question..you should ask him to hangout sometime and get to know each other well before you decide to jump into a relationship and if it ends up being more than a friendship or something than go for it! good luck. hope that everything works out for you.


Ok, here is the deal:
I like guy, guy might like me. We are in the same science class together. I want to call him and ask him a science question? Yes or no? PLEASE ANSWER FAST BEFORE IT GETS TOO LATE! (link)
yeah go ahead ask him and then try to lead the question away from science and into a "normal" conversation and maybe ask him if ya'll can hangout sometime. good luck


13-f ok i was having sex and my dad walked in.. what do i do i havnt seen him since and i wa but naked head to toe and so was he no blankets and .. idn please help !! i rate HIGH (link)
the prolbem is that you are thirteen and having sex. no thirteen year old should be having sex! at all. do you know the that you should only give yourself away when you are in love and it not just for "fun" chances are that you aren't going to be with him for the rest of your life. but you should sit down and talk to your dad and give him a real good explation. sorry that really all i can think of to say.


can a girl get pregenent from anal sex
(link)
no she can't. but if you didn't know that then should you really be having sex? when you have sex it does come with reprecussions. so if you are having sex protect yourself and know the facts =)


ok ive never been kissed before and im nervous that when i do get kissed that i wont know what im doin and ill be bad. any advice, thoughts, or tips about this? (link)
its normal to be nervous it's you "first kiss" the only advice that i can give you is everything will come naturally and just happen so don't be scared. you'll remember it though.


i like this girl and we have been bf and gf before we talk 2 each other each day should i ask her out again (link)
if you like her and she likes you go for it! nobody ever got anywhere by sitting on their ass..right?


Im pretty late...and I'm 16 going on 17 btw I feel like an idiot and I know its all my fault. Anyway how am I gonna break it to my parents? (link)
what you should do is find out if you are pregnant and then if you are tell them, if you don't tell them and you and you are and don't get the care that you need for you and your baby you will probably end up in the same place i was in a year ago.i ended up miscarrying at 3 months. it literally killed me i told my parents when it was to late i should have told them sooner. but if you are tell you parents so you can decide what you are going to do. that way you will not have togo through all the surgery and pain pills.. i wish you the best and good luck


My boyfriend and I had sex last week and my period usally comes on around the 24 or 25. It is the 27 and my period still haven't come on. I have been have cramps and back pain. So am I pregnant or not? (link)
it dosen't really mean you are pregnant! you might just be late for any reason so don't worry to much just get on birth control and get you boyfriend to wear a rubber. protect yourself. but what you need to do now is either goto a clinic near you or get a pregnancy test and find out if you are or not and if you are do what you gotta do. because it only takes that one time. i wish you nothing but the best though.


i have alot of stress right now and i feel like im going to lose my mind. what should i do to keep myself sane fora while until things calm down? (link)
well if you have alot of stress then maybe you should take some you time. do some of the things that you like to do. also establish some quiet time it seems as of you really need it if you are that stressed out. hope that everything works for you though!


ive been going out with a guy for two weeks and now i want to dump him because i just dont like him anymore and liked the way it was before but this whole week we have been fighting because i cant seem to act normal around him and i dont kno how to dump him because he gets this look in his eyes and i just cant what should i do to break up with him?i rate high! (link)
you've been dating him for 2 weeks. how long did you know him before you dated him? maybe the two of you should have gotten to know each a little better before you jumped into a relationship. maybe the feelings you had towards him were just "friendly friend" feelings. you know what i am saying? and even though he gives you "the look" you shouldn't stay with him because you feel bad you should be honest with him but don't break his heart even more try to be a "sweetheart" about it and consider his feelings as well as yours...
