I am a thirteen year old female and I have a close male friend who is also thirteen. We are very good friends but we don't have any type of sexual relationship at all. Today we were having a discussion about soul mates and I decided that I think that he might be my soul mate, as in a friend not a lover. My question is, do you think it is possible to find your soul mate at thirteen? We are really good friends, I tell him everything and we are always together. (link)
Anything is possible, but please remember to keep your options open as there are many other people out there and he may not be the right guy after all. But then again, love knows no age. Good luck with your problem! ~Brit

okay so im a female 14 years old. Valentines day coming up and well the is few guys that like me but they arent what i really want. What i really want is uhh well im not very sure there is couple guys i want but one of them i like never hang out with and another one well i dont think i have any cahce with him at all cuz he doesnt even think im hott. What should i do? Who should be my valentine this year?

plz help me! (link)
I could be your valentine! lol. I'm in the same boat as you are, but I'm not worried. I think your valentine should be Jesus because he is the best valentine ever created. He won't stand you up on V-day and He will love you no matter what. And by the way... just because a guy doesn't think that you are hott, doesn't mean that you don't have a chance with him. Looks aren't everything. Anyways, good luck! ~Brit

I want to shave my private parts. But Id ont know what to use. Should I just use cream, wax it, or shave? (link)
waxing hurts..a LOT. Trust me on this one. I dont reccommend using hair removal cream cuz it has bad chemicals which might skin irritation or stuff like that so I suggest shaving. Its better, but you have to be very careful so you dont cut yourself. Hope I helped :)


I am 16/f and my boyfriedn and I are planning to get married when I am 18, My bf is 21, but my mother said she wont except this marriage as i am too young and have to finish my education first. I dont want to hurt my mother as she is very upset. But i am absolutely in love with my bf and so is he. We are totally sure about this marriage. What should I do? (link)
I think you are a bit young to take a decision like that, but if you are totally sure then no one should stop you. But before you do get married think twice about the future which lies ahead of you. Talk to your mother and explain that you and your bf are in love with each other. Try to tell her that you truly love him and you are ready for this decision. and you also ready to live your life with him. I think yous hould go on with your education even after your education, so talk about that with your bf and your mother and they both should understand. Hope I helped.


I make graphics and such but I was wondering if anyone knew a free, reliable, good, and useful graphics program which has no spyware, virus and such. Please help. (link)
You should Try out Photoplus 5.5 Its great, reliable, fast, useful and FREE Go to www.freeserifsoftware.com to dowbload it. Or you could download various paid art progs trials and just use the trials. Hope I helped.


okay you see my question is that are there supposed to be some hard materials in your breast?like somewhat near the accual chest like where your breasts meat your body? thanks so much cuz ive been worried bout this thanks again! (link)
as long as it feels the same on both sides, you're fine. if you feel unusual lumps on one side or another, that's when you need to worry and go to your doctor to make sure nothing's wrong.

get a wooden box w/a lid from total crafts or any other craft store. get a lot of pictures of just the two of you and decupage (i have no clue how to spell that...sorry) them onto the box. on the inside of the box write quotes, inside jokes, etc. and then put something special inside. i hope i helped with some inspiration!


In my house, my siblings have about average grades. Since i was young i have done extremely well. Last year i got a 4.0 through the hole year. Now school is getting very difficult for me but somehow i manage to do okay. It is my freshmen year in high school and i got 4 a's and 2 b's and i wish i could do better. I have a hard time memorizing things so when tests come i bomb them. My family is not what you would call rich, but we arent poor either. my parents would have all 3 of us kids in college at the same time when im a freshmen in college. I want to get a schollarship somewhere but as my dad says, "A's will get you schollarships, b's wont." My question is what are some different ways that all of you memorize the hard facts, expecially in biology and history. (link)
first of all...let me tell you, depending on the school if you have some b's you'll still be able to get a scholarship, don't worry. but the way i memorize things is i make flashcards, make up a poem or a song that helps you memorize the facts, or think of acronyms to help. one teacher taught us how to do an "interactive notebook" where you write notes on one side of your notebook and then on the other side, draw pictures and things that'll help you remember. also, when a teacher goes over notes in class, use a highlighter so you can remember what the most important facts are. i hope this helps :)


Okay so I've been goin out with guy for about...4 months and i dont really like him.But it would feel soo weired if i dumped him bcuz hes a big part in my life.Idk what to do... (link)
if you don't like him anymore, don't lead him into thinking that you do. that'll just make things worse. explain to him that you lost romantic feelings for him and that you still want to be friends. it'll be hard the first couple of days but after he gets over it things will get back to normal.


Im kind of unsure about what to do about this one guy I like. I've liked him for a long time and he knows I like him but he doesnt know if he likes me. Last night we went to a party together but the party was really weak. Me and him never danced and all everyone did was chill and talk and eat..and listen to music. There were a bunch of instances of him flirting with me but sometimes him and one of my friends would gang up on me and sometimes they went to far and really got on my nerves. He says that when he does that stuff, hes only playing and he doesnt want to hurt anyone and if he ever does, hes sorry. But now I dont really know what to do. The first time me and him actually went somewhere together and it turned out so lame. I want to go to the next school dance with him but hes going with one of his old friends. He doesnt like her like that but you know how it is when you have a friend you've been friends with for a looong time. I have to admit though, I am a bit jealous.
So anyway, I want to ask him if he likes me because I think Ive given him enough time to decide and next weekend I might go over his house if he wants. His mother already invited me over. I just need some advice on what I should do about all this. I'm still kind of bummed out about the turn-out of the party... (link)
If you really really really like him then try flirting with him, and also try to be good freinds with him. Try to get him interested in you. He might start liking you. After you two have become good friends ask him if he likes any girls. IF the answer is no then go for it! Its no harm done if a gal asks a guy first! but If the answer is yes then you cant realyl do anything about it. JUst continue to try to make him intersted in you and you may as well say goodbye to you adn him going together to the dance, but as a friend you can ask if he wants to dance with you when you two are at the dance. Hope I helped! :)


Okay...I'm 18, and I have these two certain good friends that I've been friends with for a couple of years. I've been feeling left out lately, because they're going to the same college, and I'm not, and they always talk about it in front of me. We also have this thing where we wait for each other after soccer practice, and lately they've just left without me, talking and laughing all the way. I take this as a sign that they just forget me, and it makes me mad. One of the girls I was good friends with until the other one came along, and now they're best friends. And I'm left out. I keep giving them HUGE hints that they're leaving me out, but they're either too clueless to know, or just don't care. What should I say to them/do?? (link)
Well, You gotta talk to them about. If htey dont get it with your hints then you just gotta talk to them. Tell them that now that they are all in the same college but not you, you feel left out and ignired. IF they really are true freinds of yours, they will understand or they at least should. If they still keeps ignoring you then you just gotta face it. YOu gotta move too just like they did, like find new and better freinds cuz you are in a new and different college. Hope I helped. :)


I'm trying to promote my site, and have submitted my URL to Google, and a few other popular search engines. But I dont think it's enough. If anyone can give me a site where I can send my URL to a lot of search engines, that would be great! Thank you and I rate:) (link)
There are tons other ways to promote your site. Put your sites in tons of topsites lists. I know some other websites where you can promote your websites for free. They really work. They are: http://www.mass-traffic.com, http://www.trafick.com. You could go to similar websites like yours and try to become their affliates. You can find web button exchange systems. All these methods bought me a lot of traffic to my old site, it will bring traffic to yours too. Hope i helped :)

Edit:
http://www.mass-traffic.com has porn adds, its not a porn site though, ther is form in where you put your site details and stuff. oh and fro http://www.trafick.com, i gave you the wrong address, its actually http://trafikk.noan.net/
trust me these links arent porn sites. I am not joking.


ok I have/had a best friend for over 5 years all of a sudden when 8th grade cam she started to ignore me! well not exactly ignore but like she found a different best friend adn that person follows her around like a little dog! ok well this past week my "best friend" and the other person started to sit at another table and there was no room for the other girl to sit there so she sat with us. I asked her [in a calm voice] how come you guys didnt sit with us this week? and then she started SCREAMING at me and was like OK it was only a week get over it!!! Idk why you guys are soo pissed about it! and I said that we werent and then I said "when I sat with other people you guys got mad at me" and she said..SO THIS IS DIFFERENT! and stormed off and went to where my best friend was sitting. I asked someone later in the day who they were sitting with if they are mad at us(the table) and she said that my best friend said that we are all "joined at the hip, and she hated all of us in general"?!?!? and ya..I have been crying for the past 2 hours and I dont know what to say to my best friend becase I dont want her to hate me...

srry this was long and kind of complicated...

I will rate high if you help me!

IF she really was your best friend then she wouldnt hate you. She is acting like a bitch(sorry ^^;) But it is quite natural for a person to find another best friend whom she likes more than her former one but still she shouldnt act like this and say that she hates you. It seems as if she doesnt want to be really freinds with you anymore and is deliberately backbiting about you and your other friends, or she mgihtve become jealous of one of your other friends who you hang out with and started to ignore you cuz she was hurt. It could be for many other reasons too. DOnt talk about it to her new best freind as he might blow up like before. Talk about it with your BFF. Call her or meet her alone somewhere and ask her calmly why is she avoiding you. Express your feelings about the last week to her. Ask her if she still wants to be friends with or not. If she acts wierd or if she acts in a way which shows that she doesnt then you gotta move on and find new friends. You cant do anything about it. You will be hurt butin this way you might meet better new people and make freinds with them. :) Hope I helped :)


My Ex-BFF always humiliates and embarresses me at school but as I am a shy and calm person I never say anything to her. These days it is becoming extreme. For her teasing and out of humiliation i dont go to the school parties and concerts anymore. What should i do? please help. (link)
You Should Say something to her. You should ask her why she is doing this and tell her stop teasing you and stuff politely. IF she doesnt then humiliate her back. It should teach her a lesson. You gotta come out of your shy sheel to do this. :) She will stop eventually cuz no ones likes to be humiliated. :) If she doesnt then just move on, and ignore her. You cant just stop having fun for her. :) Hope I helped :)


Hey,
I want a good Browser but I dont know which browser to choose. I currently have Internet Explorer but it always freezes. Can you reccommend some browser? (link)
I have Opera, Firefox, Netscape and Internet Explorer. I dont like Internet explorer too cuz it always freezes. Firefox is the best. It works in tabs, is fast and reliable. Most users of firefox are satisfied. I dont like Opera too much cuz its slow but you could try it out. It has skins whihc are quite cool. Netscape is suuuuupper slow on my computer so i dont reccomend it. All in all i think that firefox is the best and i definitely reccommend it. :) Hope I helped :)

Hey, my dad past away May 2004. This past year has been the hardest year of my life. I'm worried about myself because i was a hard core christian before my dad died and now i feel like im loosing faith because im mad at God for taking my dad from me! In youth last wednesday, our minister said that god is there through all your problems, im just really confused because he is the reason i have this problem! I know God does everything for a reason but i still cant seem to forgive and i feel like im going far away from him when i need him the most! What can i do to get back my awesome relationship with God?

Thanx!!! (link)
I know that it is hard to lose a loved one. This summer I lost my Grandma. I know that she probably wasn't as close to me as you were with your dad but I have a small grasp of wut u mean. What I did, was I made some really good friends at my church. I could talk to them with my doubts. At a youth group get together last sunday, my youth minister said that it is ok to doubt God, or his exsistence, or his role in your life. I know you will tire of hearing this but He does everything for a reason. I can't tell you why he let your Father die, but maybe he was saving him from something else that was going to happen. Maybe, it was just his time. Your Dad is watching you along with God, and I'm sure that they both don't want this to make your relationship suffer. Just make some small steps to get back to where you were. God took your Father away from you so I'm sure that he has a plan to get you back to him.
I hope everything works out! Luv ya sweetie!


i want my hair to not poof during the day because it usualy does so i would have to go to the bathroom and put a little water on my hair so it wont poof. i am planning to go out and buy hairspray that will keep my hair stay unpoofy and stay straight for the whole day, anyideas? (link)
