Well, I'm a serious sometimes funny type of person and usually my problem evolves in my love life :) ain't as lucky as you are.lol. I'm 16 and somewhat emotional. They say one of my assets is being sensitive to the feelings of others and one of my bad habits is playing with my hands while looking for words.

My bestfriend(15) , this guy(15), and I(14) all go to that same church. Now my bestfriend and this guy are going out and their parents dont know about itand are completely against them being friends. There hole relation ship is based on rebelion and she realizes it but says she doesnt care at least not right now. He has hurt her a couple of times and she still refuses to see it. She won't listen to any of her friends including me. What the heck am i supposed to do, just sit back and watch??? (link)
It'll really be painful but as a true bestfriend. Talk to your bestfriend about it and say that you're only hurting yourself. Try to make her understand but if she doesn't listen no matter how you try to explain to her then just let it go. At least you tried to help her but she didn't listen


I like this girl and we used to go out.
we had something really special before but some shit happened and the relationship went sour.
She had a b/f when we were dating. She doesn't have the some feeling for me anymore but i still like her. I think she borke up with her b/f now and going out with other guy.
I really like her but i don't think i should still thinking about her.
Anyone knows how can i forget about a girl who i like a lot??? (link)
Well we are somewhat in the same situation there. It's also difficult for me to stop thinking about him but I don't know if he had already moved on. But in your case she has moved on, maybe you can do the same thing yourself. Just let it go and start dating others. There are so many people there waiting for you.


It's my new roommates birthday tomorrow. She's going to turn 23, and she's been living with us for the past 2 months. She rents out a room in our house and goes to school in San Francisco. My mother, her and I have become really close and it feels like she's just like a sister to me now. We are going out to dinner tomorrow for her birthday because she has no family that lives around here. I have no idea what an appropriate gift could be to get her. I was thinking maybe I could make her a simple card or something. Any ideas? Thanks! (link)
It depends on what she likes that she doesn't have yet. A simple card is nice. Well, just make sure that the gift comes from your heart and sincerely given. That's the best gift you can give her.


I have a "friend" that is sort of mean to my other friends. She excludes them and is very posesive of me. She gets angry when me and my 2 other friends do things together, without her. My other friends basically hate her, but i don't want to break the friendship off because i don't want to make an enemy. I hat being stuck in the middle!!!
~Stuck (link)
I haven't experience that but my sister was in the same situation last time. I told her that you should talk to your possessive friend that you are not hers so she shouldn't act like that. Try saying that to your friend and let her understand that you don't want to have enemies but she is too possessive.


there is this guy and i have liked him for 2 years now. We went out last summer but the day before school started back we broke up. My dad found out some stuff we did and talked to josh and told him not to talk to me ever again. josh has a girlfriend now but i still want him so bad. My dad told me the other day i could talk to josh again. And i really want to but we havent talked in so long and i dont know what to say. I dont even know if he wants to talk to me anymore. Any ideas on what to do? i'll rate high for answers!!! (link)
Try to find out where he is or where he usually goes and go there but don't let it appear as if you intentionally went there for him. Make it look like its a coincidence and when you see him then say hi to him and ask do you go here too? like that and then you will have a chance to talk to him again.


there's this guy at school and he always like bumps into me, and says sorry. before i didn't think anything of it, but now it's happening like almost all the time! does he like me? or is this just some weird coincidence?! (link)
I think he likes you. Just do the initiative to talk to him. Maybe he did that intentionally to get you talking to him.


I just got braces a week ago and after I came home, I noticed these tiny tiny black spots on my teeth...I tried brushing it off, but they won't come off...Now it's a week later and they're still here..It's not really noticeable unless you look closely but I notice them. Can anyone help? I rate. Thanks (link)
Just refer to your dentist. They know a lot about those things.


Im doing a history timeline and i need to see what happaned on certain dates for my timeline and i dont know any website where i could type in 3/14/87 and see what happaned or where i could just type in 1966 and see what happaned then in that point and time .. so if you could help me that would be great! (link)
Just go to yahoo and type 1966 history then you have a list of urls there. Just choose.


i just started straightening my hair and when i straighten it its always frizzy and doesnt stay straight..i always see ppl with perfect straight silky hair and i wanna know how to get mine like that. please help! (link)
How about if you go to the parlor and hot oil your hair? Don't use shampoo always because it'll make your hair unhealthy. Also use conditioner instead of shampoo. You can use shampoo once or twice a week. Hope this can help!


Ok so I have a good amount of friends and everything... but I am a bit shy. I just know I'd have WAY more friends if I was more outgoing. It's just really hard for me. Can I have advice on how to become more outgoing... and what I should do? Thanks.

-Hopeful (link)
Last time, I have the same case like you. I'm not that outgoing with others but as time pass by, I realized I became more outgoing. Just ask your friends for feedbacks about you and why they became your friends since they know you more than we know you. Then apply their advices. Ok.?


i like this guy and he is sweet, attractive, and is so nice. He's funny and tall. One problem, got a girlfriend. He is so sweet tho and he pays more attention to me then his gf even tho i'm only his friend. Too bad his gf is my friend but not a really good one. He always flirts with me and i flirt back but is this ok? (link)
Flirting will really get you in trouble especially when a guy is involved with someone else. Try to not flirt with him back and stay out of the two and notice what his reaction would be. If he'll be sad or he'll ask you why you're staying out then that's a good sign. He noticed you. If he doesn't mind then you need to let go. He already has a girlfriend. Just try what I told you then maybe you'll really find the answers.


there is this girl named Courtney and she as a crush on my boyfriend. Well he has track with her and sits with her at lunch sometimes. Well she knows me and him are going out and she flirted with him right infront of me yesterday and then has the nerve to talk shit about me and give me dirty looks! Well me and her got into it but it was only words being said. My boyfriend yelled at me for yelling at her! He said that if I hit her at all that me and him are done! We I don't know what I should do.. its complicated! Please help!

.: Miss Confused :. (link)
I think your boyfriend doesn't love you and obviously likes Courtney than you. So I guess you should talk to him and ask him, who he would choose Courtney or you. If he chooses Courtney, just stay away from them and meet someone who's better to you. If he chooses you then tell him straight that you don't like the way Courtney is flirting with him and better stay away from Courtney or else you would ease out of the relationship.


hi im 15 and i have long hair, like every other guy at school. but it looks really bad, like its always messed up when i wake up. it looks good with a hat on, but without nething..*twitch* ne ideas to what i can do to make it look good in like 5-10 minutes? thx (link)
Maybe you need to cut it so that it won't disturb you anymore but if you want your long hair to remain the same then tie it with something. But for my own taste, I usually like guys who apply gels in their hair.


ok, i have a really good friend of another race that i had no doubt at all was gay. he was always checking out other guys and stuff so of course..duh, i thot he way gay. so we were really good friends and then all of a sudden he told me the DAY BEFORE april fools that he had had a really bad crush on me since the beguinning of last year. k, it TOTALLY threw me by suprise b/c i thot he was GAY!! so ne ways i though he was joking cos the next day was april fools but he wasn't kidding at all!!! so he kept stalking me and wouldn't leave me alone. he would always be like "have you though about it yet, you're taking FOREVER!!" but my mom just got home from the hospital from a really stressful and long-recovery surgery and she JUST now started walking. so i've been distracted obviously with my mom. so ne ways i was doing this filming project for school and he was stalking me the entire time. we were filming and he'd just be standing there looking around doing nothing, watching what we were doing when we all asked him to leave like 30 minutes ago, but he wouldn't leave. so finally we finished the project and i needed to change out of this crazy costume i was in so i told him "hey, i need to change into my regular clothes." an he just tood there starring at me, then he goes "well then?" like i was ACCTUALLY going to do it in front of him! so i told him he needed to go outside and he was all pissy about it. so then while i was changing i saw him STARRING AT ME THROUGH THE WINDOW WHILE I WAS CHANGING MY TOP!! oh my gosh it was so horrible! i felt so violated! and he's still been stalking me and saying "hey, how's your day?" to me in the hallway like we're going out even though it should be pretty clear to him that we're NOT!! so how do i tell this guy to get lost and leave me alone? i don't want to hurt his feelings, but then again he was starring at me while i was changing so i kind of do. ne suggestions? what should i say? i rate high (link)
Maybe you thought he was gay because of his reaction to you. He maybe was conscious when you are around. If you don't want to hurt his feelings but want him to get lost then maybe you should look for another guy and let him see that you are not interested with him. This means, try going out with the other guys, so he'll get what you mean.


What do you do if you find yourself more and more each day, liking a guy who does not believe in God? I am a christian and I have my morals, standards and beliefs and he doesn't meet my number one standard which is believeing in God and having a relationship with him but, on the other hand, I am so drawn to him I can't help it.He's a really great guy but should we just stay friends and nothing more? (link)
First, I believe in God and in my part I can't imagine myself having a relationship with someone who doesn't believe on my faith. In your part, maybe God purposely brought you together to let you encourage him to believe in God. Remember putting God as the center of your relationship is what will make a relationship stronger and stable. So if you want to be with him forever, encourage him and help him to have his faith.


I don't know why but I am scared of love, but I want it so bad. I am 19 and have still never had a boyfriend or even a first kiss because I want my first kiss to be special. I am considered an attractive girl and guys like me and I like them too but I won't let anything happen because I personally feel like I don't carry enough self-confidence which my friends get angry about. I think I worry about life in general and I'm scared that I'll just end up alone forever. What should I do? (link)
Try not to worry about being single forever. Jst remember that when the real true love comes, it'll come. When it comes, don't push it away. Like me :(. Now, i've suffered enough to know how important real love is. Stay just what you are and if you don't like to engage in a relationship then don't. Sooner things will change and the one that's meant for you will come.


My mom is like soooo annoying! She constantly makes me repeat myself and takes everything the wrong way(for example: i'll say something like completely random and not in a mean way or anything and she'll take it as an insult and i'll give her an insult and she thinks its like a joke or something). Also, she still treats me like i'm about 3 years old and I'm actually 14!I try to put up with her the best I can but I usually end up being mad at her for severaly pissing me off. I know it doesn't sound like that big of a deal, but believe you me it gets extremely frustrating after 14 long years! Also she always points out the odvious and asks stupid questions and never listens to any answers! plus I just wanted to send in a question cuz this is my first!:) (link)
Well, sometimes mothers do get annoying sometimes. They think the worse of what you're doing though it isn't. As for me, i just ignored my mother when she is at that situation though I get really irritated when she gives false accusations against me. Rrrrr. Boy do I get angry but then just the same she's still my mother and I have to exercise patience with her. Try to do the same thing.


My ex & I have become sort of friends now. In a recent conversation he got very hurtful. He told me about his new girlfriend & how much he 'loves' her. I didn't want to seem jealous/hurt so I went along with everything like it was fine. He told me he hasn't thought about me at all since we broke up. Then when I said something about another guy, he said he didn't care. Does this mean something? If he doesn't have feelings for me anymore, would he actually say all this to me? I still have strong feelings for him. (link)
I don't believe your boyfriend when he said that he didn't think about you since you broke up. he's lying and ofcourse you can see that. When you said something about another guy, did he right away say I don't care or you ask him if he cares? Coz if he right away said that he doesn't care then maybe he really still have feelings for you. Talk to him again and look at his eyes if he really is telling the truth and read his body language. I'm sure you can find the answer there.


I have this one friend...we've been friends for 2 years. Well, this past year we've gotten closer, but now I think we're getting TOO close. She says I'm HER best friend, but I already have a best friend. And she always makes me hang out with her in the morning at school, and gets mad at me if I want to go with MY best friend even though we just sit in her crushes homeroom. She always tries to make plans with me on the weekend even though I always do things with my best friend. She makes me do her science homework for her, and she borrow my science book every day even though I don't WANT too! It's getting out of control and I'm starting to be very extremely annoyed of her. I miss hanging out with my best friend!! It's like she thinks WE'RE best friends, even though its clear we aren't. I don't know what to do anymore, and I'm afraid if I just keep letting things go on like this I'll end up really despising her. What should I do? (link)
I think you should try to notice her. Maybe the girl lacks attention and she really really wants to be your bestfriend. If you don't want to be her bestfriend, be at least her friend and tell her that you already have a bestfriend. Let her understand your feelings and maybe she'll give you time to be with your bestfriend.


Hi. I'm 15, I weigh 120 pounds, I'm 5'4, and I do have to admit that the pounds are fat not muscle. But I wouldn't say I'm HUGE just chubby. Well my family are all very thin. My 17 yr. old sister is 110 pds, my 13 yr old sister is 100 pounds, my mom weighed 103 pounds when she was married at age 25! (the only reason she weighs more than me today is because she had kids), and my dad weighs...well he's a stick for a guy. I get my looks from my Aunt and Grandpa. I just recently joined a gym to help turn the fat to muscle more, to tone myself. But the problem lies in the family. They always call me fat. Like my sisters, if they get upset with me, they hurl the insult "your fat" at me. My parents both call me fat also. I don't think they mean any harm of it, but it really hurts. Every time someone says something I retreat to my room and cry. They don't know how much it hurts because I really do think I'm FAT. Finally today I just broke down crying and told them how I felt about them always calling me fat and my mom said I was just trying to get pity. What can I say to make them realise this really hurts my feelings when they all say this! The only persons who apologized for calling me fat is my little sister. I have 0 self esteem and I think this plays a small part in this. (link)
You know what? I even wanted to become fat myself but even how much I try.I'm still thin. Personally, i like fat people than thin ones that looks like a scarecrow. Try to make being fat a positive asset of yours. My brother teases me many things and the more I get angry, the more he teases me until i'm blue all over my face. The other time I was so tired to get angry that I just rolled my eyes and ignore him. Suprisingly, he stopped. If you don't want to be called fat then try some exercise and eat balance diet. That should make your family not insult you anymore.
