Q: I've just moved in to Univeristy, and my room is really bad. There is only one shower between 18 people, the kitchen is tiny, and there's so little natural light in my room that you can't read without artificial light. I've picked up a form to apply for a change of room, but I don't know whether I should go through with it, as moving would mean I'd move to a new corridor where people have probably already formed friendship groups and cliques, whereas here I already know people. Do you think it's worth the hassle of switching? I have seen other rooms around my campus and they are, without exception better than the one I have, so there's no real risk, it's just a case of it being worth the hassle of having to move all of my stuff after having moved it in just a few weeks ago.

If their really is the questioon of space, then you shoud move. The ratio of 18 ppl to one bathroom- is that sanitary? Even though you already know all of the ppl who are in your dorm and stuff, it wouldnt hurt for you to meet new ppl. Its not like they'll ban you from talking to them cos u need more space! Make the move and life will be a little bit easier if you do!

Q: ok, i love my boyfriend(lets call him peter) with all my heart, body and soul, but before i got with peter, like 3-4 months before i was with his best friend(lets call him danny).
originally i met peter, then his introduced me to danny, my b/f awhile ago always flirted but he never made a move or anything so things just happen with danny, after me and danny were together peter backed off, then we broke up, and i was single for awhile then me and peter get together and we have been happy, it seems like whenever danny gets brought up(they are still friends btw) he gets all emo and talks about how i broke his heart, i love him but i dont wanna have to be the cause hes so sad sometimes, im supposed to be his girlfriend, making him smile.. but instead it feels like the past with danny only makes him sad..
i dont know what to do. i wanna be with him but i dont know how to handle knowing i make him sad ='(
help. what should i do?

you have to talk to him and tell him that you love him a lot, and thats all that matters. The love that you guys have should not have any bearing on what you and danny had, cos the feelings aren't the same. I hope that he understands and doesnt make u feel so guilty!!

go with your date. If she asks why she cant go with you, then tell her that you already have someone to go with. And, as for your best friend, tell him that he should probably move on- and that you know that she likes some one else. If you have more questions, my email is alichan2010@yahoo. Hope i could help.

you are kinda young, so noone can tell you that you arent gonna get hurt. But if you trust him, then you have to stay true to him. If you get scared and breakup with him, you will never know if what you did was the right choice, and if you try to get back together, than it'll never be the same.

Q: Ok, my dad owns a racetrack about 2 hours away from my house and I always go there every saturday. My brother and a couple of friends also go there and they work on this truck thing. There are 2 guys that work with my brother that I really like and one of them is always flirting with me and says he loves me and stuff but ya I really love them both a lot even though they are 2 and 3 years older than me (there so hot and they're cousins). Well my racetrack closed a few days ago and it opens again in 7 months but I really cant wait that long to see them. One of them who is 14 tried to kiss me on the last night but I didnt kiss him and now I regret it since I will not see him for a long time!!! I keep dreaming about him and I cant wait to see them again I am like so mad its closed...how can I deal? Thanks for your help!!!

if your brother cant hook u guys up, then why dont you help your dad out and stuff so that he can get the place up and running. The more you do, the better you will feel about the time spent waiting.

Q: Okay you see my friend "Helen" and I were talking about my other friend "Hannah". When we brought up my other friend "Jake", Helen told me that Hannah told her that I was mad at Hannah because she changed Jake and that I was mad at her for taking him away from me. Thing is, I never said anything like that or relating to that or anything to Hannah. I don't feel like Jake was taken away from me because he was never mine in the first place. I don't know where she got that idea and why she said it but it hurt to find out she was saying things like that about me. I wanted to talk to Hannah about it but Helen told me not to because Hannah would yell at her for spilling the beans to me (Helen was the only one who was supposed to know). Hannah is not a bully or anything but she can get annoying especially when she's mad at you and Helen didn't want Hannah to be mad at her because they go to the same school and they share the same locker and everything so it would just be awful. So my question is how can I talk to Hannah about it AND keep Helen's name clear?

be like, jake said that you were mad at me- whats up with that? and if she asks if helen really asked you, deny it.

Q: Ok, so I'm a fourteen year old girl and to start off with, I have recently broken up with a boyfriend I had for over a year. I loved him very very much, and still do. He says he still loves me as well, but he moved and I never see him so it's too hard to be anything more than friends. Well recently, I've been hanging out with another guy a lot. He and I are both in marching band, so we see each other a whole lot. Well yesterday, we had a band compeition starting at eleven AM, and the bus got to the school at 1:30AM. Well at the compeition we were hanging out a whole lot, and on the bus ride home he started using me as a pillow again(this isn't anything new) and I subconsciously started playing with his hair. All of a sudden, my hand slipped into his and the next thing I know we're holding hands. See, what I'm wondering is, is it okay to be slowly falling in love with this new guy while I still have feelings for my ex? Is it fair to him? Help.

the feeling that you have for your ex are not as strong as you thinl if you arfe starting to like this other guy. I thik that you should give this guy a chance, since you and your ex are basically just friends. ya know?

HAve a party and have like an hour or so where you do what they like to do. Take lots of pictures and even have a sleepover. For example, if you and your friends like horseback riding, singing, and movies, you guys can go horse back riding for an hour or so, then go to an all night karaoke bar, then watch a late movie, then crash at your place. Everything you guys will do will be exciteing and you guys will have some serious bonding time!

most definately the punkk! he obviously likes you. Why dont you try to invite the punk to hang out wih you one day instead of chasing the snob!! It is better to go out with someone who appreciates you rather than someone who blows you off!!

Q: There are these two boys and I can see myself with both of them. The promblem is Derek is friends with my brother and goes to a diff high school than me, I've known him for about 6 months now. Damien goes to my school and we have a lot in common but I've only known him for a few weeks. I honestly don't know who to pick. They are both great guys. Also my brother is totally against me and Derek dating, Derek is like who cares he doesn't control me. please help

You should see why your brother doesnt want you guys to date. He may actually have a valid reason. And if he does, then id suggest that you take a chance with Damien! Even if you think that sounds weird, listening to your brother, but, sometime they know a little bit more about the person than you are!

Q: ok my friends thought that i cut myself which I DONT! i didnt no it but they were all talking about me and saying that i did.. i no that they were worried but they didnt even come to me about it and they were like spreading rumors about it (only our group and a few other ppl heard tho). also some friends were talking and saying that i couldnt express myself bcuz i copied my bestfriend in 4th grade... hmm im in 9th now.. and i express myself ALOT. im really hurt that they were talking this shit behind my back and not coming to me and sayin i cant express myself
should i b mad??
thanx

Um, yes, you should. I think that you should try to talk to them about it, though, cos it isnt fair that they did that. Did they see bruises? Maybe they are being overprotective or they feel as if they should be in charge of gossip. The best thing to do is to talk to them and make sure they understand that you are NOT cutting and that spreading those rumors are hurting your reputation.

Q: hey .. ok .. here is the thing ..i have 2 best friends.. lets call them elle and iris.. we're really close..we're in 9th grade.. in school, we usually like guys our age or 1 or 2 years older.. there's an important guy at our school and he needs a bodyguard to stay with him. my friend, elle, likes this bodyguard. not offending anyone..but, we're upper class girls and as you may imagine, not only
this guy isn't from the same socially "priviledged" class as us, but he's also around 30 years of age. this is hardly the problem, the guy stares not only at my friend, but at iris and me. iris and i have become very fearful of what this may end in. some dude used to call elle to her cel phone (without telling her who he was
and he asked her sexual things and implying stuff he shouldn't imply. she answered and took things very lightly. anyways, i asked her if she would date him if a relationship would occur (cuz she HAS NEVER had a conv. with him..!!)
she told me she would, and not only date him but have sexual intercourse with him. as you can imagine, i'm very worried because i have no idea what this pedophile freak is capable of. he looks at her with these provocating eyes and she looks back at him, responding.
i dunno what he could do to, not only her, but us. i have this feeling. i dunno if he's capable of doing something to her against her will- as in raping her. i talked to my mom and what she told me was that iris and i needed to talk to elle urgently to tell her what she could get herself into before this goes too far.
SHE TOLD ME SHE LOVED HIM. iris is talking to her mother right now to ask for advice. this is a great deal to both of us so i would REALLY appreciate your advice. thank you so much for reading this long .. thank you ..

Tell her that she needs to be super carefull! She cant be totally open like that, as you mentioned. She also has to realize that she cant reallyt date a 30 year old and have sx with him b/c she would send him to jail. If it is needed, slap her. I'm serious!! **nods** you cant just let her go unchecked like that. She has to be more carefull of the freaks that live in this world!!

Q: My friend is annoying as hell. She considers herself punk. She wears HER OLDER BROTHER'S CLOTHES. And she literally wears a size 1, and her brother, in womans, is like a 5. So they're all baggy, and she wears his belts, shirts and shoes too. It's so annoying. She's really pretty, but she never shows it. She wears argile socks that don't match (literally, she miss-matches them on purpose) and her hair is PAST her butt. She hasn't had it cut in like 6 years. I hate that people look at her and talk about her funny, but seriously, it's so weird because she doesn't even dress or act like a girl. Should I tell her?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yes!!! and one day shye will seriously thank you. She may be going through a phase, to you have to make sure she realizes that individuality is cool, but acting like you are a guy is not. She can do the punk look with a skirt! Look up some cool punk outfits that arent crazy and do not need her brothers clothes! lol

YAY!!!!! That means that you are improving!! You should be glad that you don't have those feelings anymore. Most people who are in that situation (with the want to commit suicide) get progressively woprse, not better. You should be happy for that- and yes, that is normal.

Q: I was talking to my ex and he said that my bestfriend "buth" said something about the guy i liked. I think it was something like, "he doesn't like her like that, and they'll never got out!" I don't know what to do. I'm totally lost in waht i should do. Should I ask her if she said something like that or what?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Ask her if she said it. If she says no, either she's lying b/c she wants to save your feelings, or she honestly didnt say it. If she honestly didn't say it, then maybe your ex is trying to get back with you? He probably is!!

If you go without it, you'll screw things up. And i know that it hurts and it's embarasing, but everything wont be better. If you really want to go, you should find a way to make it stylish. Instead of thinking thats ridicules, try to make it work!!

She is troubled because he's everything that she could possibly want in a future husband and he feels the same way about her in viewing her as the perfect wife but for someone reason feels god doesn't want them to be together right now. She is trying everything to show her love to him? What should she do? She feels a lot of hurt and is heartbroken over this? She's willing to do a lot to have him?

I dont know the whole situation, but maybe you she wants to propose to him. They may not be at the age, and it may not be the time, but, if she atleast makes the first step, then he will know how much she is in love with him.

|

|
|
|
|
|

umm, i would say flat out NO, but you could... but its always easier to not deal with that person. Women always want to change the players, and i know from experience that it doesnt work. So, if you want to try to stick it out with him, its not gonna hurt me. But i wouldn't try it. Although 'once playa always playa' doesnt always apply, a lot of guys (And girls) are still like that- sorry...

you have to gewt a boost of self confidence first. When your out in a crowd, go up to some body (within reason)and introduce yourtself.When you are comfortable to do that and actually hold a long conversation, your ready. But, while your doing that, try to just say hi in the hallway. Do that for a week. Then ask them how there doing... profress during each week. it helps if you try to do both!! lol

Hi. Im Nicole. Im here to help, so ask me a question and i'll answer it in all honesty. Im not gonna try to belittle you are anything, because that is totally uncool. If you dont like my advice, then dont even rate. I love to hang out and do a lot of shopping, as the average girl does. I live in florida, and it is kinda hard now that it is the year of the hurricane.. but im not here to complain. Im here to help you, your friend, and whoever wants it. Power to ppl who need help!! (haha, that didnt come out exactly right...) If your question is incredibly stupid, i will delete it. Ask away!
