Hi, my names Melanie.
I'm fifteen years old.
I love fashion, hanging out with my friends,
and drawing and writing along with a bunch of other stuff.
I used to have an old account here that was quite known for awhile,
but I sort of just lost touch with it,
so I decided to make a new one.
I'll try and help you the best I can,
just hopefully I didn't lose touch with my good advice, haha.
And feel free to IM me with your problem too.
I also put my myspace in a link down below,
if you ever want to add me & talk.
But incase you don't see it or something, it's:

me and one of my guy friends have been friends for like, 4 years and everyone always says we should go out. we always laugh it off and say that we never would because were just friends but the more i think about it the more i kind of get what everyone is saying. we get along really well and our personalities to match up pretty good but i have that lame fear that if we go out that we wont be friends if it doesnt work. i dont have a thing for him, or much of one anyways but i could see myself with him. i want to try it out and date him but i dont know if hes thinking what i am and i dont know how to tell. were like best friends and everyone thinks we like each other or that were flirting or that were already going out. thanks soooo much (link)
Even though everyone says you guys would go good together and you could see yourself with him, don't ask him out unless you really actually have feelings for the guy. Because what if he DOES have feelings for you? It won't be fair for him to sit there liking you, and you not returning the same feelings. I would just continue being friends. Because like you said, if you two were to break up, it could get complicated and there's not always the chance that he'd want to remain friends, so I wouldn't risk the chance of losing him.

People always tend to think best friends are either dating or flirting or something. I don't know why. Personally, I hate that cause it's annoying whenever everyone always asks you if you two are going out and you have to answer no a thousand times. Haha, can't a guy and a girl just be best friends? It's silly.


Haha, anyways, I hope I helped.


if anyone has had mono how long did it take for you to start recieving symptons? and what we're the first symptoms you had.
i'll rate please help (link)
I've never had mono but my brother did. The only symptoms he ever had was he was always extremely tired and he would sleep practically all day and he was real tired in school. But, since I've never personally experienced it, I googled it up and found this site:

http://familydoctor.org/077.xml

It basically tells you what it is, can it be cured, how's it diagnosed, how long the syptoms last, etc.


I hope I helped.


hey well im 18 and one night me and my boyfriend of 5 years were having sex and the condom broke and i got pregnant. i honestly dont know what to do. im only 3 months and im not showing yet but what do i do when i start to show. i mean im in collage but i dont know like are people going to talk about me and what should i do.
also i havent told my boyfriend yet im scared of what hell say. please help. thanks in advanced. (link)
I would suggest telling your boyfriend and your parents now before a belly starts to show, cause I think they'll start to notice, haha. And it's better to let them know now then later. Even though you're scared of what they'll say, they really do need to know. Most girls are usually worried of how thier parents and boyfriends'll react whenever they find out their pregnant.

As for college, continue going. I mean, there's no reason you should stop and you shouldn't if you want to keep a good steady job to help support your baby in the future. Well, people might talk, but they shouldn't. I mean come on, they're in college. If they do, they're immature, and just ignore what they say.


Good luck with telling them, and I hope I helped.


Hi, I'm 5' 6" and weight 122.5lbs. I still have some extra belly and thighs and calves and I want to get rid of them. I've lost almost 5lbs in two weeks and I still want to lose more. Is this healthy? (link)
Well, the healthiest amount of weight you can lose in a week is 2-3 pounds, so two weeks would be 4-6, so you're right in the middle. As long as you're doing it healthily, you should be fine. Wow, 5lbs. I've been trying to lose some weight too, and nothings happening with me, haha so good job :P. Anyways. I hope I helped.


One of my guy friends likes me...alot. and i like him too but i think it would be strange going out. and he might ask me soon. blahh. (link)
Well, you said you THINK it would be weird going out. Just whenever he asks you out, talk to him about it. Just be like,"____, I do really like you and I would love to go out with you, it's just I'm afraid since we've been friends for awhile if we start dating it might become weird. Can we just make a promise if we ever do break up, we'll stay friends? Because I don't want to lose that." So even if you do feel weirded out by dating him, you can always just explain it to him and try and just go back to being friends. But at least give it a chance, you never know. It might not feel weird at all, and you could be missing out on an awseome boyfriend. I hope I helped.


I was wondering if anyone knows if getting your belly button pierced hurts? i.ve been thinking about getting it done but cant Decide.

XO0x (link)
Whenever you get anything pierced, it's most likely to hurt at least a little bit. Nobody can REALLY tell you how much it hurts, because everyone tolerates pain in different ways. Some people it barely hurts, others it hurts really bad. But out of all the people I know that have gotten it done, they say it hurts a bit. But, it's over in a couple of seconds, so just think of the end result and how much you want one. I hope I helped.


I just met a girl online at espinthebottle.com and she is 13. I gave her my phone number and she called me and we talked for like 30 minutes. Is it possible that this could be an online predator trying to get to me?

Dear cluelessCPU,


You always have to be careful whenever you're talking to people that you met on the internet over the internet and especially the phone. I would suggest not talking on the phone, and keeping it strictly to the internet and don't give them any information about yourself such as last name, what city you live in, your adress, etc. Because they could try and track you down. And never meet them. If ever talk to her on the phone again, listen carefully to her voice. Does she sound 13 or older?


Another thing I would do is to prove it's really her and everything, have you seen a "picture" of her? Ask her to send you a picture of her holding a piece of paper that says something you told her to say like "HI _____!


I have a boyfriend. I've been going out with him for over a month now. My mom wont allow me to date until I'm 16 and I'm only 14. It's hard to see him because of this and its a strain on our relationship. I need help. I dont really get along with my mom so I know that if I tell her she wont let me ever see him again. Plz help me. (link)
Well the most you can do is either just tell your mother he's just a friend and whenever he comes over , just pretend like he's a friend whenever your mother's around. But just have him be nice to your mom and everything and leave a good impression on her. And maybe if she grows to like him alot, then you can ask her,"Well, you've met him. Do you think we could date? Because he asked me out awhile ago, but I didn't know what to say because I know how you feel about me and dating." The only other option I can really think of is breaking up with him, which I already know you don't want to do obviously, so it's out of the question. I hope I helped.


Hello, I`m 14 years old && 5 months pregnant, && my boyfriend is 15. && I haven`t seen him for over 2 weeks && I`m starting to get worried I talk to him once && awhile but we always argue but then we make up by the end && we always fight because hes always fucked up && doesn`t get or understand what i`m sayin. But for the past frew weeks hes been hanging out with all these`s girls && I`ve been hearing that they`ve been doing stuff together I talked to him about it lastnight && finally he wasn`t fucked up he had a good excuse && told me it was all bullshit. But how do I know if he`s faithful or not. (link)
There's real no way of finding out if he's being faithful or not unless you see it with your own eyes, and I'm not suggesting following him or anything here. You'll just either have to trust him, or trust what the other people are saying. But I think you should consider breaking up with him. I mean, if you two are always arguing and fighting and he's always messed up and hanging out with other girls, that's not a very good start at fatherhood, and whenever the baby's born, it shouldn't be around a fighting, yelling enviroment. Your boyfriend should be with you while you're pregnant, not hanging out with all these other girls. Even though you say he had a good excuse, that could be just a real good lie. You just have to decide who you're going to trust, him or other people. But faithful or no, like I said, I think you should kick him to the curb before the baby is born. I hope I helped.


well im 13/f and i haven't gotten my period yet. i guess i have big boobs i'm almost a B. ALL my friends have got theres but i dont know when i'm going to get mine, i hope soon. help me... (link)
Haha you should consider yourself lucky you don't have your period yet. It's nothing but a pain in the butt. Anyways, girls bodies are all different so some girls can get their periods when they're 11, some whenever their 15. It'll come someday, just let nature do what it does. I hope I helped.


Hey,
im playing Sims2 for my PSP.
my goals now including make hazel a hotdog (you need cooking 2), and open up doctor nelows hide out (which you also need experience). i need to know how to earn cooking experience/etc.

pleaseeee help.
ive been stuck on this foreverrrr !!!
thanks so much! ♥

(link)
I'm not exactly sure if I'm right or not, but I think if you just buy a book shelf and read a bunch of books on cooking and you clean the kitchen counters and cook alot of food, you just gradually gain more and more cooking experience. The book shelf has books also if you need Mechanical experience and such. I hope I helped.


this year is the first year im going to homecoming. and idn if im supposed to buy a boutineer (sp?) for my date! i dont know if he knows either! please help me! lol. because its like, next week (link)
Well, most girls buy their date a boutonniere, and the guy buys the girl a corsage for eachother. But you don't HAVE to, it's up to you and your date. I would just talk to him about it and decide if you two want to buy one for eachother or not. And you can always get one at the Florist's, or if you go to a big grocery store [ like here I have Giant Eagle I'm not sure about you ] but they have those little flower areas where you can buy them there too. I hope I helped.


I found out yesterday... i have a diseaseon my ovaries. and i might not beable to have kids when i'm older. and it upsets me because it is going to be so hard for me when im older to try to have kids and if i can't have kids. the doctor told me there is a slight slight change i can treat my problem but can't cure it. not alot of people know and i don't want them too. but my question is.. when i'm older do you think having a boyfriend that really wants kids, jeopardize my relationships? (link)
Well, it could possibly jeopardize future relationships with men who really really want kids, but it depends on the man if he's willing to stick around with you or not.

I would suggest whenever you enter a relationship that you let them know early on about it so they know ahead of time. Just sometime when you're in the middle of a conversation about marriage [ not necessairly about you two getting married just talking about it ], or kids, or the future, just mention to them your problem with being able to possibly not have children. I mean, there's always adoption still and if you don't want to miss out on the baby experience, you could always adopt them as a baby so you don't miss anything.


I hope I helped, and I hope everything works out.


17/f
My bf who is 19 lives in another state because he's going to college there. He came back for the summer and we had sex for the first time a few weeks ago. Then I didn't hear from him for a few days. I called his parents and it turned out he'd headed back to college already!!! Why didn't he say goodbye? Why won't he answer his cellphone now? Was he using me? How could he just do this to me after 2 years together? What's going on? Was losing my virginity to him a mistake? I'm sorry there's so many questions I just don't understand!!!! I thought what we had was so real! (link)
Well, I don't think he would be using you, cause if he wanted something from you, I don't think he'd stick around for 2 years to get it. But I don't know, they way you said what happened sounds to me like he DID sort of use you. But, no reason to jump to conclusions. Maybe he had to leave early, or he couldn't say goodbye cause it'd be too sad. I'm not too sure.


The next time you talk to him, I would have a serious talk with him and ask him what is going on, because what he did was rude, just leaving without saying goodbye. Especially after what was supposed to be special happened between you two not too long ago. And let him know how you're feeling used and forgotten and humiliated. If he doesn't try and resolve it or explain himself, unless he has good reasons for doing what he did, then I would otherwise dump him. Because everything he did was rude and if it's already starting now, with him in college, it seems like the not picking up the phone and everything's going to continue, and that's not a good relationship at all if he's not willing to put more of an effort toward it. Especially now that he's farther away at college.

As for the losing your virginity to him being a mistake? It could go both ways. I mean, if you really loved him and wanted him to be your first and be special, then no, it wasn't a mistake because that's who you personally wanted it to be with, that was your choice. And also, you didn't know he wasn't going to call or was just going to leave for college or anything, cause I'm sure if you did, you wouldn't have had sex with him.


But, try and talk to him and if it doesn't work, then I say dump the jerk.

I hope I helped.


hey everyone well im a 15/f and i need some help.. well ok my ipod isn't updating it says it doesn't have enough room to put more songs on.. and its the ipod nano which is 2 gygabytes and it can hold 500 songs and mines can't even hold like 390 songs!! what should i do? (link)
well, i don't know what the problem could be, but i suggest taking it back to where you got it or taking it to best buy or somewhere and seeing what the problem is and if they can try updating it and fixing it. they've fixed mine before whenever it did something like that. i hope i helped.


I have a friend who is gay. I'm a female, just for reference, and he is obvioulsy male. The thing is, I really really like him. A lot. He's never had a girlfriend, never liked a girl, never done anything with a girl, or anything like that. Is there a way that I can possibly turn him bi without going too far with him? (link)
There's no way you can "turn" someone bisexual. You're friend is homosexual, and you'll just have to accept it. I'm sorry, I'm not trying to sound harsh, but unless he decides he likes both girls and boys, you can't make him bisexual. I hope I helped.


What are some tips so i can decorate my locker? Like places I can get certain things at? What do you have in yours that you think is cool/unique?


Any Ideas for mine? I already have a mirror =]


Thanks (link)
What I did last year is I just bought a dry eraser board, but there was also a mirror behind it and then under it was a little bulliten thing so it was three things in once and it just stuck to my locker and I'd write reminders and stuff on it, but eventually friends doodled all over it. And what I've thought about doing sometimes is just taking picture of my friends and of bands and their names and stuff and putting them all over my locker, but whenever you do that, it tends to get annoying to take them all down at the end of the year.


I hope I helped.


What does it feel like when you have a misscarriage?

Do you get a stomache ach then have lots of blood and it have a weird/gross smell?


thanks (link)
I wouldn't know from experience or from hearing about it or anything, so I googled up a site for you:

http://hcd2.bupa.co.uk/fact_sheets/html/miscarriage.html

It tells you the syptoms and everything that happens.

I hope I helped.


I like my friend, josh and today i told him that i liked him and i couldnt really tell if he liked me or not andi just really dont know because alot of people think he likes me but my friend told me he didnt like me well what should i do? and if you have any advice on how to get a guy to like you that would be so helpful!! thanks!! (link)
Well since you had the guts to already let him know of your feelings, ask him the next time you talk to him about his feelings for you if they're just friendly or could be more. I'm not sure though, he could either like you or no. Because maybe your friend likes him and doesn't want to going out with him if they know for a fact he DOES like you, or they just really know that he doesn't like you. Or alot of people could just be gossiping and saying stuff, or they really figure he does. But like I said, just work up your guts again and ask him how he feels about you, cause you can't really tell and alot of people are saying he does and he doesn't and you're confused. I hope I helped.


my ex-boy & i dated for about four months. we broke up in february. we barely talk. he recently went off to college & he imed me today asking me if i wanted to hang out. what does this mean? is he just trying to make me feel better? what? (link)
I think he's just wanting to be friendly and ask you if you want to hang out sometime. Since you guys barely talk anymore, he might miss you and miss talking to you [ in either a girlfriend way or friend way i'm not sure ] and just wants to hang out and stuff. I doubt he's trying to make you feel better, cause if you guys broke up in Feburary, don't you think he would've been trying to hang out with you sooner to make you feel better? Because that's like, 7 months right there to get over it and everything. So just hang out with him [ if you want to ] and see what happens. If he starts being all "I really missed you" and even starts flirting, then he might miss you on a girlfriend note, but if just joking around and being nice and stuff, he just wants to be friends. I hope I helped.
