I have a friend who has a pretty hard life.She lives with her dad,grandma and older brother.Today we were all at her house and she said f*** and her grandma walked in and started hitting her in the face.My friend tried to block her but her grandma pulled her arm away and smacked her dead on in the face.My friend got so mad that she threw her cd player and then she said "Im out of her" so of course we followed her and when she opened the door her grandma pull her by the arm and starting hitting her again.My friend pounched the wall and walked out and there was a hole in the wall.She was afraid that her dad was going to beat her when he found out and she was sooo scared.What should I do to help her out??Ill rate high for any answer!! (link)
You should talk to your friend and be there for her. Well she shouldn't have said IT in the first place no matter what and she needs to learn how to control her temper. If her family hits her alot take her to your school counsolor and talk about it with them.


sumtimes i just cant stand my family..its like they dont even want me..im thinkin about running away!!!...should i? (link)
Yeah I know how it feels I've got a rough family too. Running away won't solve anything believe me I know. I stay in my room alot Iming, phone anything but yeah I try to stay away from them at all cost un less I'm needed.


On Sunday I'm going to the beach wwith my family and another family who has a 14 year old son. He's a year older than me and he's cute!!! I have these one pieces that i look good in, but i also have some bikinis. The problem with my bikinis is my nipples show through the fabric!!! Yuck!! Should i wear the bikini anyway or go with a one piece? (link)
Go with what you like who cares what he thiks. If you wanna wear the bikini swe in some padding the things most other bikinis have. They're cheap and can be found in almost any clothing store.


i have three daughters who always seem to suffer from headlice, the doctor has gave me some shampoo to treat it which is very good but i can't seem to get rid of the little white eggs, could you please suggest some-thing, thanks. (link)
I think your lice problem might still be in your own home. Wash all bedding and vacum everywhere! Wash your couches or clean them somehow. Get all their toys especaially stuff animals and dolls washed. ALL they're clothes needs to be wash and throw away your old brushes, combs, picks, and hair accessories and get new ones.


Okay, I know this might sound stupid, but in October, there's a Halloween Dance, and they encourage you to wear costumes. What are some good halloween costumes? I was thinking of being a pink lady, or dorothy, from the wizard of oz. Nothing to drastic, because I go to a catholic school. Thanks

Well it really depends on what you like. If you like movies try dressing up as a main character. Or dress up as your favorite singer or what you want to be when you grow up. A new a group of friends who dressed up as a group o old ladies a couple of years ago. Why don't you and your friends dress up as a group of something.


k,i've been dating this guy 4 about 3-4 weeks. I like him, but later this week, he said he was busy n' everything, he ignored me, n' everytime i'm oL he said like.. hey, u hav to go to school 2morrow,, don't sleep to late, then if i say no, i dun wanna go 2 sleep rite now, he will be like.. ok.. i want to play, tell me if u're bout to off.And i was like, ok if that's wat u want.. i dunno wat to do.. i like him.. n' sumtimes i kinda jealous w/ his friends, coz he really cares bout his friends, n' always talks bout his friends.. sooo... wat do i do? (link)
Tell him how you feel or if he doesn't care anymore maybe its time you two split. Yeah it can be hard at times but maybe he just has something else on his mind. But you two should really talk it out because a relationship is a two way street so start talking.


Me and my friend both have questions:

My question: I just started going out with this guy that I have been with on and off before. We haven't seen each other all summer so we talk on the phone alot. Anyways, I don't know what to talk to him about! We both end up asking the other person what they wanna talk about and saying I don't know. Or we end up talking about "us" or something. Any ideas? I don't wanna seem boring.

My friends question: My dad is racist, and the problem is I like a guy who is partially black. When we're talking on the phone my dad always interrupts me and asks why we are talking. It's really getting on my nerves and I don't think my dad can get over this. What should I do?

Thanks! (link)
Your question- talk about what you two like weather its sports or a hobbie. School, friends, movies, what you did today.

Your friends question- You could ask him for a little privacy or interupt him when he's on the phone. And when he asks why tell him now you know how it feels.


My ex boyfriend and I still have feelings for each other. The only reason we broke up was because of an Instant Messanger Misunderstanding since someone always goes on his screenname. Well, he has a girlfriend who he only likes as a friend (which I think he got to make me jealous.) He and I want to get together but I'm afraid I'm going to get hurt? So should we keep ourselves a secret, should we tell his girlfriend about us, or should I just tell him its not a good idea? We really like each other. So any advice would be great. I'll rate 5's for Helpful advice. (link)
Ok 1. Change your SN. 2. If you guys are gonna go out again tell him to dump his gf first or else you'll both just get hurt. If you're afraid of getting hurt again then take some time to think about it before you give him an answer.


ok i have this friend. we used to be the CLOSEST BEST FRIENDS EVER! everyone in our school new that we were best friends. we were always together and we hardly ever got in fights. we were in every class together (except 2)
then in 8th grade, we kind of slipped away because we werent in ANY classes together...
so near the end of 8th grade, she started calling me a slut and not calling me or hanging out with me and she just ignored me...
we havent seen each other all summer.

and her mom also hates me...i have no idea why...but her mom doesnt like my friend hanging out w/me...i have no clue why! kuz im nice to her mom, and polite and everything...i just dont get it!!!!

i tried pot once...
she made a bet w/her friend...and she won the bet
so i got mad kuz she mad a bet...she got mad kuz i did pot (thats what the bet was about)
she sent me THE MEANEST E-MAIL EVER! i cried for like 2 hours that night! just because i love her and i really wanted to be friends with her.
we talk and i guess you could call us friends again but i KNO she still thinks im a slut and a pothead
ok..i tried pot ONCE and i decided im not gonna do it again.
and she thinks im a slut kuz i make out w/guys that arnt my b/fs...which i've only done like 3 times...but it wasnt like...IM GONNA MAKE OUT W/A TOTAL STRANGER! and then the next day IM GONNA MAKE OUT W/HIM!
it wasnt like that...i make out w/guys if i LIKE them...and obviously my b/fs
so i was jw what to do about her...or how i could "change" for her...
she said she liked me better in 7th grade and i changed A LOT...i didnt even realize i changed...so i just dont know what to do kuz shes my best friend and she helps me out so much! i just dont know what i would do without her
(link)
Friends grow apart from each other even bestfriends. Time has changed and maybe you and your friend should meet new people and start hanging out with a different crowd. You can't change a person physically or mentally so just be nice and if things aren't going out so well forget her. There are tons of people and I'm sure you can find someone else.


i love to sing and i have a pretty nice voice but i dont know were to start and wut kind of songs to sing i can sing high but im not that good at singing low.how do i start out


PLEASE i need your help (link)
Try joining a choir they'd kow where to put you weather it alto or saprano. Or your music teacher could help you. Songs will fit to your level of singing ability


This is going to be the strangest question ever. My grandmother and my mother both carried a Bible as part of their bouquet for their weddings. I want to do the same. There are 4 possible Bibles that would fit the bill.
#1-Grandmother's Bible-She isn't around, and she wouldn't let my mom carry it. It's a faded ivory.

#2-Mom's Bible-She carried it, but she is now divorced. So maybe superstitiously, I don't really want to carry it. I will already be wearing her veil. It is white.

#3-The Bible I was given when I was Baptized. It's blue, and a little stained due to a fire. I don't think anyone will see the stained.

#4-The Bible I was given at or near birth with my name written on it. It is a very light pink.

All of these Bibles mean something to me. They aren't huge, so weight shouldn't be an issue. One day I want the blue one, and one day I want grandmother's Bible. What's your opinion?
(link)
I would use the last one because it's your very first one. And pink is great for a wedding.


hey
i have acne scars on my cheeks they are kinda purple and very very small. i think they are acne scars they look like pores but are kinda red and purple, they are very faint and are covered up easily by foundation but by the end of the day you can see them again :( so is there such a thing as scar removal of fader or something?? cos my skin would be pretty clear when they have gone. its just my cheeks.
btw i am 16/f and live in the uk... do boots sell something i can use?
emma xoxo (i rate high for good advice!) (link)
Dear Emma,
Try using Neosporin cream its the same cream you would use to treat cuts or wounds. And their are patches that remove scars from the same company...good luck.


i love my girlfriend so much but i don't even know if she feels the same way like i do. i just want to know how do you know if your girlfriend feels the same like you do without even asking (link)
You'll never get an answer if you ask show her how much you love. Actions speak louder than words. Just sying 'I love you' isn't enough you gotta show it to her that you really do love her.


U R SO SEXY

WAT do u look 4 in a guy????? (link)
What do i look into a guy? Someone who doesn't hide back and has fun. Outgoing, loves to party and loves to dance! Someone whos caring, nice, charming, sweet, loving, and who loves to do the things I do. I don't do the whole online or long distance relationship thing. And I love a guy who can make me laugh and smiles alot.


i have a boyfriend and i luv him so much and i never want 2 let him go but i dont think he knos how much i do luv him..how could i tell him?
(link)
Just tell him. There's no wrong way of saying I love you. Tell it from the heart.


Hey Everyone!! Well I met this guy a month ago and we completly fell for eachother. The problem was our age differences because I'm 15 and he's 20 so he decided that he couldn't be w. me because i'm too *Immature.* Recently I've been checking out his profile just to look @ his pictures and I came across his new GF!! I have to admit that they look really happy together and I'm happy 4 him but @ the same time I wish that I was his GF. I can't stop thinking about the fact that he's moved on so quickly and I'm still getting no where. I really like him but I know there can't be anything between us..How do I get over him?? Please help!! (link)
You can't just forget about someone just like that it takes time. Try doing something you like. A sport maybe or a hobbie? It's ok if your not over him it's gonna take some time. In the mean time hangout with some of your friends and do somethign together.


Okay. I like this boy and everything but he is like my best guy friend that I have! i like him so much. I'm not scared to tell anyone that I like them if I do. But I'm thinking about our relationship together. I don't want to ruin what we have right now. But I want more. I mean, if I told him and he didnt like me, it would be totally awkward!! Does anyone have any advice? I will rate high for GOOD advice!! (link)
Don't risk yourfriendship for a greed of wanting more of something. You could talk to him and if he's all weird about then he's not a good friend because I good friend will always be your friend no matter what. Relationships start out as friendships.

Dear Emma your just going through a phase in life al teens have to go through. It's call identity crisis and it can be really serious sometimes. Try talking to a counsuler or a psycatrist they're there to help and listn. Get a journal. Try mediatating or yoga or a walk.


Ok I have this friend who has to be exact all the time and when I say something and it isnt exact she always corrects me.I know its not a big deal and its probably really mean for me to say this but it just bugs the crap out of me!! Please help!! (link)
Perfectionist...yeah they're a pain sometime try to talk to her and how it makes you feel and if she continues to do it say I won't talk to you unless you stop.


ahhh!! I just got back from the beach and I got burnt but then it turned REALLY tan.. then just a couple days ago it started peeling! I thought nothing of it now my back is splotchy and I don't know what to do! I'm going to have to wear a bathing suit in 2 days and I don't want it to look like this.. I keep putting aloe vera on it.. is there anything else I can do to make it not as blotchy? (link)
Don't scratch or scrub. When you bath just let the water run down your back. I don't think you can do anything cause when you peel you just go on and on until it decides to stop. Try some vaseline because it heals skin.
