Well, there is this girl that I'm okay friends with, but now don't really like her that much anymore. My boyfriend is starting to hang out with her more and talk to her more. Sometimes talking to her more on AOL than me. While I was away for two weeks my boyfriend went on a choir trip to Six Flags. Ashley (the girl that I'm okay friends with) and my boyfriend hung out the whole time. IE. Rode rides together, walked together, got food and ate it together. That doesn't make you're girlfriend feel very good, but now she's in his info. It's an inside joke with her, but surprisingly it's about the same lenght as me in his info. Well, my whole info is about him. Am I being stupid to be mad, that's what he said. (link)
i understand how you feel. talk to him and tell him that it's really bothering you because he's talking to your friend more than he is to you. if he sais your being stupid, then you should brake up with him. because if he really likes you more than your friend, then he should understand and tell you how much you meen to him and that he loves you. but if he sais your being stupid about it, then wait a while before you brake up with him. maybe he'll realize how much that bothered you, and he'll start hanging out with you more.
hope i helped!


Ok here it is, my boyfriend hasent called me in like 3 weeks and i called him 3 times in the past week and he hasent returned my calls. When i called him last Sunday to tell him somthing his mom pick up and i asked for him and she said "who is this Brittney" (My name is not Brittney) I have no clue what to do!!!!! Can you help me? (link)
maybe he's cheating on you. does he go to your school? if he does, then ask him why he's not returning your calls at school. this is sort of hard i don't really know what you should do because this has never happened to me before. just keep calling and if he picks up then ask him why he hasn't answered for like 3 weeks. if his mom picks up again then say you want to talk to him. if she sais "who is this brittney" again, then just say "i go to his school" or "i'm his friend" or "i'm his friend" or something like that. sorry if i didn't help!


lol. how do you get people to stop saying lol. i dont mind when something funny is happening but when you're like "i went to the beach today" and the im you get back is "lol." please. it bothers me. ok. sorry... i know thats weird. (link)
a lot of times people just say lol because they don't have anything else to say. just don't let it get to you so much. but if you really want them to stop becuase it annoys you THAT much, then just say stuff like "uhh...that wasn't funny..." or "can you please stop saying lol after everything i say? because it sort of annoys me..." they're probably not going to COMPLETELY stop, because it's sort of a habit for them probably, but that'll make them stop a little, and when they do it again just remind them and stuff.

Okay I sweat really bad under my arms.ALL the time. And I've tried every deoderant there is! Nothing helps.And it doesn't smell it's just sweat. Help? (link)
I asked the same question a while ago, and I got some of the same, rude remarks. Try Certain Dry, I couldn't find it at first but I got it from a drugstore called London Drugs. It was about $7. It *saved* my life, now I don't know what I would do without it. If that doesn't work then just wear cottony shirts and a strong deodorant, and ask your doctor for some tips too.

Hope I helped =)


okay i have this friend and i dont know if she likes me but i liker her ALOT! i think she is realy sweet and darling. This sounds a little nasty but i fell like i love her or have a crush on her! whenever i see her i fell all weird inside and i am always trying 2 hang out with her and stuff but it doesnt seem 2 be working so should i tell her how i feel?? thats like realy embaressing 2 tell! i dont no wat 2 do!!is this like natural?? cause im in high scool so wen ur in high scool is that how ur supposed 2 feel??

~ feel embaressed ~ (link)
i'm not in highschool or anything so i don't really know if that's how your supposed to feel about your friend, but i don't think you should really have a crush on her or anything. you're only supposed to really care about your friend and stuff, your not supposed to have a crush on her lol. if you want her to still be your friend, then i wouldn't tell her if i were you, unless she feels the same way about you. if you tell her, then she'll feel weird and won't really want to be your friend anymore. i would just keep things as they are and not tell anyone about this.

you have hyperhydrosis. hyperhydrosis is when you sweat either under your arms, on your hands, or your feet. my friend has hyperhydrosis also, but it's for her feet and hands. you should go to the skin doctor, and get some medicine for it. if the medicine doesnt work, then you should look up on google:"hyperhydrosis treatments". then you can order medicine from there, or you can go to a special hyperhydrosis doctor.

i've been itching a lot on and near my penis for a few months. does anyone know what this might be? (link)
it's called itchy nuts. every guy has em. it's a fact of life. i find myself sitting there scratching my nuts for like a few minutes straight before i notice. my friends have been known to sit there and scratch their nuts constantly. and even pro atheletes do it all the time too. every guy who's ever lived who has a penis has an itchy set of testicles and an itchy dick. don't worry about it.

and don't you find it stupid that when you ask a question about your dick like a million girls answer like they know what's up? they don't have penises, they don't know how they work, they're talking out of their asses.


Does anyone know how a 14 year old female could have a portfolio of headshots done for modeling? I want to be a model but i dont know how to get discovered. im not too skinny but im definitely not fat, i just want to have my face modeled. any suggestions? (link)
well im not really sure but sumetimes you can get some out of j-14 magazines and sometimes people will send them through the mail well i hope that i helped you and i hope you get your dreams to come true later


Sorry its a little standard but i will try to make it quick, My mate likes a guy, who only likes her as a friend. She acted like she didnt mind but i think it hurt a bit. Anyway, today i found out he likes me, but i only like him as a friend, plus he is a year younger than me. so 3 questions, do i tell her? If so how do i tell her? and how do i let him down gently? (link)
ok i have had this problem before my best friend and her boyfriend went out for like 2 or 3 years and they broke up but she still is madley in love with him and he started likin me and i just liked him as a friend but when i told her she kinda got mad at me first but i told her that i didnt like him that way just as a friend and i told that boy that i didnt like him that way and we are still friends and my best friend still likes him well i hope this imformation helps you and they understand were your coming from i do sorry for this bein so long though


ok i wasn't sure what to put this under but i have bad vision and i hate wearing contacts or glasses. are there any cheap ways to improve my vision? Can some one please give me easy ways to do it (not surgery or glasses or contacts).ty
** i rate high for helpful or funny answers**
(link)
there isn't a way to just improve your vision unless you use like laser surgery. but that costs A LOT of $$$!!! if you just go on without wearing contacts or glasses, then your vision will continue to get worse. i have bad vision too, so i wear contacts instead of glasses because glasses look weird on me. if your afraid that your contacts will fall out when you play sports, they won't. they don't even fall out when you swim. also, it's not annoying to have to put it in everyday, because it only takes like 5 secs. to put them in. if you get contacts, if they make your eyes get red and start to ich and hurt and stuff, then get a new solution for it. that's what i did because i was allergic to my solution. you can get the solution at walgreens and stuff like that.
**hope i helped!**


Can one find love online? Even if the lovers are separated by hundreds of miles? Explain.

5's for all quality responses because this is your opinion and you therefore cannot be wrong. (link)
sure ya can. i like to think that i have found it... or it found me, one of the two.


Is there any way to manually check the engine timing on a 1997 Saturn 1.9 DOHC? (link)
i can tell you how to do it on a buick as that's what i've done it on, but let's just hope that since they're both GM cars it'll work the same.

have a look in your distributor, make sure your mechanical weights are not worn out. Do they still "fit" on thier mounting posts or are the holes worn out? Do they return nicely to their retard position? Do the springs appear in good condition?
Give the shaft a little wiggle. If you feel more than a hair of side play, it probably needs new bushings.
disconnect vacuum advance and plug the carburetor end.
set your initial timing. Usually about 5 - 8 degrees BTC.
check that your mechanical advance is working. Do this with a timing light. You have set your initial timing at say 6 degrees, rev the engine slowly and observe the timing. As the revs climb the timing should advance. Do this several times, and observe that the timing retards to the same spot each time, also, that the advance appears to be consistent each time. If it fails in either of these, your weights may not be in good condition or working properly. If you have an original system, you can expect it to creep slowly about 12 -16 degrees by about 3000 -3500 rpm. This will give a total mechanical advance of maybe 20 to 24 degrees. This is what you are operating on when you put your foot into it!
check your vacuum advance. This is where you get your mileage. You will need a vacuum pump, they don't cost much and are readily available at any parts source. You can hook it up and pop the cap off your distributor and pump it up and watch the vacuum can pull the point mounting plate around, this will let you know it is working. When you stop pumping the vacuum should remain steady indicating no leaks.

and the thing is even after you check your timing you're gonna run into the problem that you're most likely losing power and speed in your engine because the mileage is to the point in which the engine has already loosened up and lost power over time. so even once you set your timing and check it you still want to do an ignition tune up and various other things to the car.

this is the saddest ? ever nd please dont tell me "only u can decide" cause wuts the point of even answering my ?. w/e. back to my ?. my bf has been my best friend for like 2 yrs but has been my bf for like a month. he is in love w/ me nd he tells me, all my friends tell me and all his friends tell me! i dont like him the same way ne more. im like in love w/ this other guy! can u tell me how to brake up w/ my bf? hes already suspicous of the other guy that i like. . . (link)
yeah tell him you don't feel the same way and break his heart. i've been that guy, it usually ends the friendship soon after because of it. or you can go on in a relationship you're not ready for. i'd say just stick it out with him and you'll learn to love him. but most girls wouldn't want to do that as most girls would rather just go be with someone else the next week. stick it out with him, you really will ruin the friendship ya'll had and ruin the relationship, and break his heart. i'd say those factors in itself should keep you from not wanting to stick it out. the relationship could easily fall apart in a week or so anyways because of something else that wont hurt him near as much.

i've been the guy who is the good friend of a girl. i've then been told that they'd rather be just friends. and that they don't feel the same for me that i do for them. and then the friendship ends up dismantling and falling apart. i'm telling you as a guy who has been on the recieving end of this it will destroy him. and the friendship. and really make you look like a heartless bitch. and probably make him hate girls. it's never a good thing to do to a guy, so really really think about it, think long and hard. do the ends justify the means? does the final result really make you happy at all?


Yesterday I was trying to crack a glow stick and it exploded in my mouth. Only a little bit of liquid came out and I spit it all out and rinsed out my mouth. It burned my tounge..Does that mean it was toxic? Would I know if I was poisined by now? Please reply quick so I will know how to treat this! (link)
glow sticks are non toxic, so i wouldn't worry about it. just make sure that you rinse out your mouth really well if that happens again. you aren't poisoned.
