how can i convince my really strict parents that i deserve ta get a belly ring cuz i work hard and i do all mah chores ad get good grades.. i do it all! but they still are really strict with me (link)
Your parents arent strict because they won't let you get a belly ring! They prob. no the affects of them - they go into your body and could carry diseases -. Unfortunetely, parents usually don't know when their children actually deseve something. But if you do, really, ABSOLUTELY, deserve it, there is prob. a good reason for them not letting you. hope it helps

ok... well i just recently like a week ago lost the best girlfriend i have had in my life and the best thing that was in my life at the time.. all i think about is her.. doesnt matter what im doin something reminds me of her.. what do i do to get her out of my head???

Just try and more on. Think about other girls that you like. Or just ask her to hook back up with you if you love her so much. I think if you cant get her out of your head then, i think yall should hook back up (if you can). But this is common in alot of people. It takes time.

I have a white rabbit and its very shy. Usually its really friendly around me and my mom. We had her for 7 months. This morning I went outside to its cage to give it a carrot. When it saw me it ran around its cage like crazy and did flips and stuff and landed on its back.Then i went to get my mom and when she came out it did it again. It was lying really still and i came to open the cage and it ran into the corner staring at me. I put the carrot in its cage and left so right now its eating. 30 minutes later i checked on it and it was still eating the carrot and I was about 5 feet away from the cage and it just fleed into the corner again and didnt eat. I cant even touch it so can anyone tell me what's going on or how i can prevent it?

Well. I never had a rabbit buy I have Guniea Pigs. Mine did the same thing. He just had to get used to me. And also if you dont make yourslef present and they catch a sent or suddenly see you they go into shock. I dont think it doesnt like you anymore it might be shy or just is not aware of what is around it. Hope I helped

I'm babysitting my next-foor neighbor's 3 kids. They are 10, 6, and 2. This is my first time babysitting on my own and I`m a little nervous. What should I do to keep them busy? What do I do if they begin to fight with each other, or one starts to cry? Any tips?
(link)
I took a babysitting course- 1)find out what they are interested in by parents, then bring a few games for each of the kids. 2)Right when the parents leave say "ok now i have only one rule, that is - no fighting-! hopefully they will listen. 3) since hopefully the 10 yr old can keep him/herself occupied, focus more on the littler kids. 4) Ask the 10 yr old to maybe help you out if has a few spare minutes - maybe ask him wut he thinks his brothers/sisters are like from a kids point of view - 5) Good Luck!!!

hi, my family has 4 animals, 2 dogs, a, cat and a guinnea pig. i REALLY want a kitten for my birthday or Christmas. my mom and dad already said no, how can i get them to say yes? (link)
Well, the sad truth is that you can't get your parents to do anthing, really- ive learned-. ive always wanted a ktten, too, so wut im hoping for is to find a lost kitty on the road or sumthing. Thats an ok idea, unless anyone is allergic to cats in your family. If it was really meant for you to get a kitten, you would get one. maybe just don't mention it for a while. Then jus bring it up w/ the parent that is more likely to say yes! Hope it Helps!!!

Is it possible to find the "one" when you're only 14? I have been thinking about this alot. I have this boyfriend, he is the best guy in the world. He doens't pressure me to do anything. We have been dating for 3 weeks and he hasn't pressured me to do anything. Just yesterday it took him the whole football game to put his arm around me, and it wasn't even fully. He hasn't even kissed me yet. Personally, I love this. I don't like feeling pressured. He texts me and or calls me everyday. I like him so much. I don't know if I love him though. But that isn't really my question. My question is, should I be looking for "the one" right now? I know it is a really small chance that I will find the one so early. I am only a freshman and I can see this relationship is going to last a long time, but the next 3 years of high school? Is it possible that we can stay together for the next 3 years? (link)
I think you should stay with that guy for as long as you can and as long as you want. If it works out amybe he is. Personally, i wouldn't find "the one"at 14, but thats me! You live your life how you think it is right.


whats a a way i can surprise my boyfriend. i need something like romantic and sexy a day that us to can just be lost in love. help please!
thank you
always and forever

Are you near a beach, water? if so u could go there for a date. You could go to a movie.


i love my parents a lot.
but sometimes they're a bit overprotective. i'm the oldest and "theyre first baby" so they dont want to "let me go."

well, sorry mom and dad, but this is starting to make me upset and annoyed.
how can i get my parents to "let go" a bit??

thx - please HELPP - i rate high (link)
You should talk to them. pull both of them aside and explain to them that your not the little baby they used to hold in their arms. say it nicesly but get the point through. maybe you guys could talk and set up boundries- kirfus- or anything else. I wish you the best.


okay so i've been good friends w/ this guy for a little over a year and, when we were first friends he would always call me and alwyas wanna be around me.And now he like never calls and im starting to have VERY mixed emotions about him. Like i honestly could picture us going out, but he always seems to like and go out with my friends and he acts like we will never be anything more. So what am I supose to do when i really like a guy and he just wants to be friends. (link)
This is another "chase" answer.
Guys like a challenge. See my last TWO answers before this one.

One of the biggest mistakes I see girls making, is being overly agressive. Guys need to be the dominant one. Guys need to feel like "going out" is THEIR idea - not yours. Guys need to feel like catching you is a "sport" and they need to WIN your heart. It's not a sport if you just hand your heart over to him. Make him appreciate you when he catches you.
I know it's hard to do this but it works. I hope this advice helps.


well i have only had 3 boyfriends my whole entire life...and im 15! i had a bf in 5th 6th and 7th and after that...guys didnt really ask me out anymore...i dont know what im doing wrong bc like i play sports im pretty smart and my mom always said i was pretty, but no boys come my way anymore...so i dont understand what the deal is...idn if its just bc people consider me as a nice innocent girl rather than a wild one...but i dont know how to get boys to like me...

thanks so much!!!

Your situation is SO common! And yes, it doesn't matter what generation you are from, during the teen years, guys will be interested in the wild girls. But don't be mistaken by guys actually LIKING them. The guys are LEARNING on them.
Have you ever heard that expression, "There are girls you DATE and girls you MARRY"?
This comment is SO true!

These girls that seem so popular and seem like they have so many guys after them, will wake up one day and realize how empty they feel because they will realize they were being used.
Keep yourself "innocent" and one day, you will be able to have any guy you want.

I don't know if you know Zach and Becka or not, but neither one of them have had a ton of bf/gfs and look how happy they are together. I'm 41 yrs old and even I admire their relationship. They have so much respect for each other. And I'm so proud of them and if you are ever around them for even a second, you can tell they really love each other. Just be patient because you will meet a guy that is just like YOU and your relationship will be that much more special.
You're doing the right thing - stay in sports - do well in school and be happy without a guy in your life and the right guy will see this and appreciate you and want to be part of your life.
Let me know if this helps and you can always im me.


okay well everythings weird right now i broke up with my boyfriend and he like hates me now. and theres this one kid that i like and he likes me back but then theres the little detail that he has a gf and he told me he was going to break up w/ her today but he didnt and i realli dont want a bf right now cuz i want to be single. but yea and my best friend ignores me everytime shes w/ this one chick that i HATE and cant stand her. and my best friend gets all pissed at me wen i ignore her. and i jsut cant stand it anymore! (link)
well just say that you want to be single right now and you dont want commitment, tell your friend what you think and if she really does ignore you then she obviously isnt a 'best' friend. best friends dont ignore oneanother just because of some random girl. try and calm down about everything and dont get to worked up. o and that wasnt a question lol but i hope i helped anyways xxx please rate me xx


my galaxy zetec has been letting in water in the front passenger footwell. this happens whenever it is raining and can be inches deep. Does any one have any ideas on the cause as it has been in and out of the garage and they cant find the cause. it has been suggested that it could be the pollen filter but where is it located as there is no reference to this in the manual. any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated. (link)
is it overheating easily? do you have to put water in the radiator often. your water chamber,or water pumping system could be busted and causing the problem. i can't really tell withoutlooking but the for galaxy isn't that great of a car to begin with. they were back in the 60's


does anyone have or know or know where i can find any good love poems for teens?
im searching google, but i cant find ones that arent so....for older people. lol.

5's for good assistance =] (link)
there are many different 'groups' if you have a hotmail acount log in and go to 'people and groups' in that there are many places that you can join and read other peoples poems aswell as comment on them or post your own. if you dont have a hotmail account follow this link...

Cats,dogs,rabbits and any reptiles are just not going to work...should I just get another hamster but that seems like I am just replacing it. Got any suggestions?I love ferrets but I don't have the money for them.
I rate 5!!!!

Thanks
ps this isn't Britt but she knows I am using it.

(link)
I think it's up to you if you want to get another hamster-pet-. I know what it feels like, my gerbil that ive had for like almost 4 yrs just died. im thinking about getting a new one, but i wouldn't replace her with it! Do you have any pictures of your hamster? If no, then you must have some awesome memories! If you got another hamster, you wouldn't be replacing your old one, unless you TOTALLY, ABSOLUTELY, forgot about your old one. PETS

you shouldnt do drugs. And parents hae the "sence" for doing whats best for you. Im not totally sure what else but try this.


i recently feel like i have no control over my relationships with my family, friends and classmates anymore. like, all of my relationships are venturing downhill, and it really hurts because there is noone that seems to understand me, and i seem invisible at times. sometimes i can't even understand myself. no matter how hard i try, i can't get back the good friendships i had with others anymore, and it feels like i'm gradually growing senseless to my actions. is there anything that i can do to help repair my relationships? (link)
First of all, if you try and "control" other people and/or relationships, you will be extremely frustrated. But you CAN control YOUR own actions...

"People do NOT enjoy being around you because of YOU. They like being with you because of HOW THEY FEEL when they are around you!"
Read that a couple of times and really think about what it means, because it can change your relationships for the better - and FAST!

Make your friends and family feel good about themselves, and they won't want to leave your side! For example, have you ever been around someone that constantly tried to impress you or constantly talked about themselves? Pretty annoying - huh? How do you feel when you are around people that ask about YOU? How do you feel when someone compliments YOU? Don't you LOVE being around people that laugh when you try and be funny and tell you how much fun you are? *The key to being liked, is to be interested in other people. If you can master this skill (yes, it IS a skill!), you will have tons of friends because everybody will like how they feel when they are around you.

i am not sure what kind of litter to get for my new cat can somebody help me... (link)
Well it really depends on the cat. If it goes to the bathroom alot then get a really strong cleaner one. If the cat is smelly, then you might want to use a Fresh Sent brand. Please rate :)
