ok. well i live here in a town called fresno. fresno is a town of really down to earth, cool people. most people aren't really wealthy, which means theres hardly any stuck up snobby people etc.

well.. now im moving to the town next to fresno, called clovis. and clovis is a really nice town. home to people living in MILLION dollar homes. a lot of wealthy people living in that town. so.. theres definetly gonna be snobby rich b**tches there.. and i dont mix well with those kinds of people. meaning, i dont like them lol.

i dont totally have anything aginst them tho, thats just not the type of people i like to hang with or be around..

so of coarse. im going to the school there called buchanan. so like.. im really worried that im not going to make friends because i dont care for rich snobbs which is mainly what the school is made of.

WHAT DO I DO??? how do i make friends..

love, manda (link)
you havent met them yet and im sure their not all rich snobs. being yourself is best.


I am 13 and Bi should i tell my parents??? cause i don't want them to hate me so i need to know
(link)
i think you should tell them. but understand going into it that they may not like what they hear. but you know they will love you. they can't and shouldnt hate you for something like this.. or ever. no worries.. if you need more encouragement.. drop some in my inbox. good luck.


anybody have good quotes dealing with community?? (link)

me and my sister fight all the time. shes a teenager. and i am three years younger than her. will she grow out of it? how should i act towards her? beacause right now i feel like i really need a sister, not an enemy :.(
(link)
i had to same problem. tell her you dont like it when you and her fight, see if that works. but whatever you do... do not pick a fight or egg on one either.

this is exactly what happenned between my best friend and i. except i was the best friend who didnt like her boyfriend. what i was bothered by was like you said.. she could never get him off her mind... and i sat through hours of her talking about him.. or awkward silences because her mind was distracted to him. and the guy was immature. i remember treating him like crap on purpose. then she told me how she was feeling and i stopped. but because i hated him so very much... i didnt even eat lunch with them. so if you want them to stop... tell them how youre feeling...they can hate each other but still be civil. but dont just throw out the friend...and make her resort to just leaving all together...from experience it makes really big difference in the way she'll percieve you.

thankx for reading your eyes out! (link)
try being his friend first. call him and invite him to the movies with a group of people. or ask him about homework. anything to start a conversation. if or when he breaks up with his gf... then he'll let you know most likely how he really feels about you. because at the moment he is prabably feeling like he couldnt say that he likes you...if he does because of his relantionship. GOOD LUCK.


i feel like my friends at school might not be the right friends to be hanging out with but i dont know many other people there beacause i'm new. what should i do to find good friends? (link)
first, figure out what you like in a friend, what qaulities and what you dont want in a friend... and try to find people who fit the description. not prefectly but somewhat.


does anyone know any good places that hire 14 year olds? i really need a job! lol (link)
you can work anywhere, but you have to have a work permit. well, thats how it works here, and prolly where you live too.

PLZ Help!!!
AS SOON AS U CAN!!! (link)
if you have feelings for him you shoud go out with him. unless the fact that he just dumped his girlfriend like that bothers you. its almost like he wanted to make it clear to you that hed made a mistake.


(I'm a girl and I'm 15!) Alright...I usually don't ask for advice but I really need some right now! I started talking to this guy and at the begining it was great. We were friends first and did everything together with the rest of our friends then we started talking and we hung out every single night and all the stuff! It was so great. I loved every second of it but then its been a month or so and now I'm lucky if I see him once a week! I never talk to him he doesnt call and When i call him hes not home or something! I hate it! Its pretty sad when his best friend calls me more than he does and I'm with him more than he is! All his friends point it out to him too! Finally the other night i got fed up with it! I called him and we got into a fight cuz i told him i never get to see him and its gets old n i dont think he wants to be with me and he said i was just being a drama queen. so then i went drove over to his house and there was like 7 of us over there and he didnt say a word to me! so we all went out to the car to leave again and one of my girlfriends called him over the car and told him that me and him should talk! he wouldnt talk to me and he doenst think hes doing anything wrong and says im just making a big deal outta nothing! Maybe I am maybe im not but i need to know what someone else thinks! So basically what im asking is what (in your opinion) i should do! and if u personally think im making a big deal outta it! tnkx (link)
when he stopped coming over everynight, was he acting normally? i think there may be something going on with him that you dont know about... what is he doing instead of coming over? maybe hes scaredof getting close to you.


yea umm im 14 and a girl
Ok this is gonna be long. I went out with this kid joe for like 4 months. the whole time we were going out this girl Amy was always flirting with him even around me. I would tell her to stop but she never listened and always denied liking him. Well when me and joe broke up I asked him if he liked Amy cuz it kinda seemed like he did but he said she would be the last person he would ever go out with. So then like two weeks later he goes out with amy. I was over him completely but it still made me mad that he had lied to me. They'e been going out for like 4 months now and theyve gone all the way. Two months ago my best friend andrew asked me out. I'm sooo in love with him but guess what's happening. Amy likes him even though shes going out with joe. She always tells me online how andrew always flirts with other girls when im not around. when i ask my friend nichole whos around him a lot she says thats not true.I know andrew would never hurt me or like anyone else. Hes liked me more than anyone else from the moment he met me. One time andrew had to sleep over amys house because her mom is friends with his mom and he couldnt get a ride back home.
Amy: Did andrew tell you what he did on sunday?
Me: No. Why?
Amy: Oh he wouldn't have.
Me: What did he do?
Amy: He slept over my house.
Me: ((theres nothing i could do about it anyway)) thats cool
Amy: OMG!!! Why dont you ever care what he does!! He flirts with like everyone and you dont even care!!
Me: I do care but i trust him so i dont worry too much.
Amy: w/e
I know she is lying but idk what to do. Please help me out. I hate her and i dont know how to handle it without like telling her i hate her cuz she kinda thinks we're friends. I cant be mean to people and i really dont wanna lose my boyfriend cuz i love him more than anything. Please help me!!!!! ((sorry this is so long)) (link)
dump her, tell her off, ignore her, SLAP HER. or you could really be mean and tell joe that she likes your BF and tell him to dump her. what an embarrassment.

does your school have a newspaper? put out a columnm there, or make youre own website with a link from your school website. hope i gave you some ideas.


I'm 13 M and I was recently talking to my friend (13 F) when she told me that she liked me. I had a crush on her for about a year now and so i was excited when we talked more i thought that she really liked me. But then when we talked again she told me that she liked me but that she liked my friend better. See the thing is i can't stop thinkin of her and i dont know what to do.
Thanks for any help! (link)
boy, how can she say that. if i was you that would hurt. but if you really like her, just continue business as usual. she is obviously open enough to tell you if/when she likes you.


Alright heres the situation.. I have this friend, his name is Chris. Anyways, we are like best friends, i guess you could say. We talk alot hang out pretty often. He has a girl friend and i am single. Do you think he likes me if he does the following.. always smiles when he looks at me, always ask who i like, is really nice to me, and hugs me all the time.. i am really confused i dont know if he likes me or is it just a friend thing? Thanks in advance!! -xXoBrianna (link)
maybe he smiles because you make him happy and hes happy to be your friend. or maybe he smiles because he likes you. maybe he asks who you like because thats what friends talk about or he knows someone who likes you. or maybe its because hes praying you say him. hes nice because hes your friend most likely. maybe he hugs because he cheerishes you as a friend, or a girlfriend. this is pretty general and maybe you should just wait, and continue acting normal, awkwardness is really not any fun.


Hey. I've been friends with a guy from school since as long as I can remember, and when we left school at sixteen we went to the same Sixth Form for two years. We've just finished those years and are awaiting our exam results. Anyway, when we started sixth form we became closer, and at around last Christmas we became closer still. Our relationship has developed into an amazing best-friend friendship, he's someone I'd trust with anything.

However, I have a problem. I know this is cliche and sounds corny, but I find myself attracted to him as more than a friend. We see each other every single day when it's possible. He makes me laugh, and vice versa. We playfight. We go places together, and are always having fun. We're always hugging and touching each other, and when I see him I can't help the stupid grin that appears on my face. The reason why I haven't told him how I feel is because he's going to a University that's quite a way away in September. One, I don't want to ruin these last precious weeks we have together by making them akward. Two, I don't want him to feel limited when he's away, like he can't go out with anyone else for fear of me finding out and hurting my feelings. I care for him so much, but I don't want to hurt him or myself. Should I get over it? Should I talk to him about it?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

(p.s I'm 18/F and he's 18/M.) (link)
it sounds like youre not exactly sure about what youre feeling for this guy and you could tell him about how you think you feel or you can wait until he goes to school to see whether you get jealous, or if you cant live without him. definetly dont just get over him. what if he has feelings for you back. gosh, you guys have a really good relationship, almost like brother and sister.


ok theres this boy i datedd 2 yers ago for 8 months nad recently we started talking agian and i just moved to las vegas and he lives in georgia and we recently got in a fight and i heard rumors that hes telling everyone that the reason hes pissed at me is because i said i wouldnt sleep with him but i neve said that adn the person that told me doenst lie what do i do or think (link)
sounds like the long distance is causing wires to get crossed. you should definetly set him straight. hearing you say it yourself will probably stop the rumors from getting spread. and he can't be mad about something that isnt true. GOOD LUCK


ok this is wicked embarassing but im a 14 year old boy and im not alot like my friends. i get scared wicked easily. i hate it! i hav panick attax wen im outside in the dark.after i saw the movie The Village(which sucked) i couldnt get those creatures out of my head and ive had a hard time sleeping ever since. wen me and my friend saw it i kept grabbing the arms on the seat(not his arms of course} and he kept asking me if i was feeling ok and he sed that my face was all white and harfly ever blinked. i just wanna no how i can stop being afraid so that wen i c a scary movie w/ a girl im not the one huddled up againstt her (link)
realize the unlikelyness of you experiencing this. try to find something scary and turn it into something thats funny. if that doesnt work, maybe you shouldnt see scary movies. but if you saw a scary movie with a girl, chances are they might think its cute...not all.


I have a problem with opening up to my friends. I've been a big flirt for like my whole life! I even won biggest flirt at my middle school. But I havent really DONE anything if you know what I mean. Like I kissed but didnt make out. ANYWAYS i have two best friends and they havent done that either! But I have a secret. I actually have gone farther than that a couple times... I'm not comfortable telling them about it because they asked me what happened when "john" came over to my house and I told them NOTHING! so then they would know I lied to them. I dont want any answers saying something like "be honest cuz thats the best" blah blah blah!
I just dont know what to do.... (link)
do you always have to be honest with people with your personal business?
