Hi, my names Melanie.

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,

Well I started dating this guy and we've only been dating 4 like 2 weeks but we talk less now than we did b4 we started going out and I hardly ever see him..and then theres this other guy I like and talk 2 like everyday and I see him more than my bf so I'm thinking about dumping the first guy 4 the 2nd one...but how do I let him down easy?? or should I just stay with him and see what happens??? Thanks! (link)
I would give the first guy a second shot. I mean, it's only been two weeks. You really can't determine if a relatioship can work out in two weeks, it's new. Just talk to him and explain how you guys rarely talk and hang out anymore and you miss him and everything, and then try to make plans to hang out soon. If he doesn't even really put out an effort to do anything to talk to you or hang out with you, then I suggest dumping him cause it sounds like his interest is either lost, or he's just rude. So, if you DO plan to dump him, just be like "Look, _____, I know we've only been dating for a few weeks or so now and everything, but we hardly talk anymore or ANYTHING. And I tried talking to you about it and everything, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm sorry, but I really can't date someone I never talk to or see. I hope we can remain really good friends though." [ or something like that ] He might be mad for awhile, but hopefully after he calms and gets over it, he'll want to keep a friendship with you. I hope I helped.


ok im 13/f and i really want to have sex and like its like i really need it. its weird cause i like get these erges to do it. is this normal for a 13 year old? (link)
Yeah, whenever we become teenagers, our bodies grow, we want to experience things, and experiment, we get moody, we have hormones. It's completley normal for you to have these urges, but I seriously suggest not to act upon these urges. 13 is far too young to be having sex, in my opinion. You should wait for someone you love and you'll know'll be with you. Not just some guy who wants it and it's over in like, two seconds and you don't love them. So just.. haha, FIGHT THE TEMPATIONS. And even if you still are thinking about it, just think. Even though you were to use protection, protection doesn't always protect you. And how would you feel being 13 with a bun in the oven? Ha, I don't think you'd like it. I hope I helped.


Hey -

ok.. well.. i have liked this guy for a while & i didnt know if he liked me.. well yesterday another boy i know asked me out and i said not now cuz i like someone else.. but i think hes sweet.. well this kid who ask me out really likes me and now i might like him a tiny bit but i like the other guy more.. well.. now the guy that i liked asked me out & i wanna go out with him so i said yes ..what should i do about the one that likes me?? what should i tell him??. by the way.. im only 13.. please help me! (link)
Hm, well if I read this correctly, you're talking about what to say to the guy that asked you out but you said "not now", right? Haha sorry if I'm wrong, but if I'm not, you just need to be honest with him. Just be like,"Look, ____, I'm really sorry but the reason I told you "not now" is because.. I was sort of waiting for someone else that I like. I mean you're really cool and all, and I hope we can be friends, I just have been liking this guy for awhile. I'm sorry." [ or something like that ] And I'm sure he might get mad at first, but hopefully after he calms down and everything, he'll get over it and you two can be really good friends. :] I hope I helped.


Do pomeranians get along with other dogs and cats? (link)
On this site I just found it says they might chase strange cats, but otherwise, they'll get along with them and other animals in the house and often play with them.

I hope I helepd.


I am a 15 year old girl in the 10th grade. i have been under alot of stress. I am pregnant, My parents are getting a divorce, My mom and i are moving out into an apartment, My boyfriend and i have started to argue you alot. Althoug it got better for a couple weeks until this weekend. Also i lost alot of friends because i was pregnant. i had to put up with alot of people saying rude things. or that i better not walk the streets or ill get shot etc. i started cutting to decrease the stress and let my problems just be released i find that it helps but i need to stop. please help me! tell me how to stop. (link)
I would suggest going to go see a guidance counselor. To help you with this baby matter and the cutting issue. You know that's not healthy, especially whenever you have a baby on the way, so you got to force yourself not to. Just resist. You and your boyfriend are probably arguing alot because he's worried/scared/angry about the baby and he doesn't know what to do. Most teenager fathers and mothers wouldn't know what to do. As for the divorce, I'm sorry it happend, but at least they're splitting to improve the living enviroment and they're not going to argue anymore.



But as for this baby. Just remember, you have three options here: abortion, adoption, keeping. I would highly suggest not to keep the baby because you'd have more stress to worry about: school, financial, the baby being feed, washed, diapered, woken up in the middle of the night, naps, etc. All sorts of stuff. Abortion, I personally think is sort of wrong. I mean, I understand the mother can't deal with the baby since she's so young, but that's what adoption is for. For another family to care for them, and at least let them enjoy the life they were given. And don't even consider not going to school. You NEED to get an education to get somewhere in life. My mother never went to college, and now she's working two jobs. One in the morning to the afternoon. And then later in the afternoon until whenever she's done cleaning offices. Glamorous, huh? So stay in school and get an education.



So just consider the options you were given, and hopefully, depending on wherever your mother moves, you can attend a new school and make some new friends, because the friends who left you don't seem like very good friends at all. They should stick by you no matter what happens to you, and should be there to support you. People are always going to talk, you just have to learn to deal with and ignore it.


I wish the best of luck to you. I really really hope I helped.


hey i was wondering if this would be a good outfit for the first day of school.

this shirt : http://store.delias.com/item.do?categoryID=463&itemID=45945&sizeFilter=&colorFilter=&brandFilter=

this skirt : http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product.jsp?rcid=womens&scid=cat90046&navroot=womens&productId=0315_1725

& these shoes : http://www.journeys.com/catalog_detail.aspx?c=vendors&s=girls/Etnies&id=28596


thanks xo (link)
The shirt and skirt look fine together in my opinion, but not the shoes. I mean, I like the shoes, but sneakers don't really look too good with skirts. Try wearing flip flops or something! :] I hope I helped.


ok.. i have an 8 year old sister & she is very developed 4 her age. if u know wht i mean.. and she has a boyfriend who is 14.. which is not so unusual cuz she always dates older guys.. well.. my parents dont know about this boyfriend of hers.. so it is even worse.. she makes out with him all the time.. adn i dont have a problem with that.. but last week she decided to have sex.. and now shes preganat! what do i do??? (link)
An 8 year old with a 14 year old boyfriend, making out, and having sex? Wow.

Well, I highly doubt that she is pregnant because in order to be, she would have needed to gotten her period. And girls don't get their periods until they're around 12-14ish. So firstly, I would be completely positive that she is pregnant. Have you tried a prengnancy test? I would buy a couple and see what they all say, just to make sure.


Now, if she IS, then she needs to decide wether she wants to keep it, get an abortion, or put it up for adoption. I would highly reccommend putting it up for adoption. I mean, there IS always abortion, but I'd rather think of saving a life then killing it and it's not like you'd have to take care of the baby at all, that's the other families job. Keeping it I'd find impossible to do. I mean, it's hard enough for teen mothers to raise a baby while going to school and everything, how is a girl in the third grade going to do it?


Once you're both 100% she's pregnant, I would tell the parents, and ask them what she should do. And also, I'm sure whenever they see their 8 year-old-daughter with a fat stomach, they're not going to exactly not notice. And she should also tell them that she has a 14 year-old boyfriend.


But I think you and your parents and your sister should all dicuss and think out the options. Don't be so quick to go to abortion because remember ; this is a little baby we're talking about here who hasn't even experienced life yet. But talk it out. And then I agree with the one advicenator. Her and her boyfriend really need to go to counseling because this really IS a life-changing event, and they need guidance.

Best of luck, I hope I helped.


well there is a girl in my grade that i really like and i dont know if she likes me or not what should i do?? (link)
Trying having a friend of yours ask around who she likes or if she likes anybody at the moment. Or have a friend ask a friend of hers. And make sure it's a friend you can trust won't go telling her it's you. That's usually the safest route in finding out without having to ask them yourself. And, if you don't really talk to her, start. Make a comment about the class, and ask her what she thinks about it. Then just start asking her about what she likes to do, etc. It shows you show interest in her and what to know more about her. And then after awhile, you can just tell her how you feel. Just be like,"I just wanted to let you know that, well, I like you. And I was just wondering if you liked me back. If you don't, it's perfectly okay, but it'll just keep bugging me if I don't find out." I hope I helped.


ive been like really sad today and i dont know why. i just feel like crying and theres no reason for it at all, nothing has happened to make me upset. so why am i feeling this way?
thanks to anyone who tries to answer this. (link)
I am assuming you're a teenager, and with teenagers, comes hormones and hormones make us all get these weird random mood swings, and we don't know why. I get these random spurts of depression too, sometimes they'll last all day, and other's they'll last like, two minutes. Just try cheering yourself up a bit. Listen to a favorite song, do something you love to do, watch your favorite movie. I hope I helped.


okay well this is obviously about make up. i have light blue eyes and they changed to green sometimes. i always wear black eyeliner and white eye shadow, where its real thin, and im bored of this look.


i would like to know what new colors of eyeliner/eye shadow i should use?



thanks. (link)
Well, since you have blue/greenish eyes, browns and blues and greens would look really pretty with your eyes! A purpleish color would also go really pretty too. What some people do, and they say it makes their eyes look bigger and it just looks really neat is they take eyeliner and put it on the top of their lid too, so you can try that out. What I do sometimes is I use two shades of one color. Like the other day I wore purple, so I had dark purple eyeshadow on and then in the space between my eye and my eyebrow [ haha idk what it's called ] I put a lighter purple on the top so it was still purple, but it was like, caked on and it just looked very light. It looked really nice. I hope I helped.


Before I ask this question, which may seem to have a simple answer to some, I must first try to put you into my situation. And if i do this properly Im sure you will find that it is not so easily answered. I am a seventeen year old girl starting her senior year in highschool who has never even been spoken to by a guy let alone kissed. Usually I am invisible to them, and when i try to talk to them they usually just ignore me. I used to think it was because i was a bit of a nerd but not even the nerdy boys liked me. So one day during the summer I was just browsing the web reading my favorite fanfiction stories and i come across a dating service advertisement under the romance section. Anyhow i find a guy my age and Instant Message him on aim. He and I have been talking ever since (for four months about two hours each day) just casually and we ask each other for advice, and argue mostly about what we read or hear in the news. he is about a year and a half older than me and lives about an hour and a half a way. I know he is not a freak because i have done my research and if anyone has the right to be sceptical about or relationship it should be him since I am the one who instant messaged him and he has no idea how I found his name. I am going to be busy with school soon and Im not sure if i should keep talking with him or not. He and I enjoy talking with each other and we feel we can share nething even the most embarassing things about ourselves because we dont know who the other person is. Our relationship is almost freeing. But He will be starting college in the fall and I feel as if i would be bothering him, although he asks my help with everything. Is he worth my time?? or is my relationship just brief infatuation?? and if it is is infatuation is it really bad to have a friend that is a guy?? (link)
Well, this sounds to me like a really good friendship, which is usually the start to a really good relationship. I would keep talking to him, if you both help eachother and benefit from eachother, then what's the harm? I think he's worth your time, and if you feel you two can develop a relationship out of it, by all means, try. It might be a little difficult to talk to eachother while schools going on, but I have interet friends too, and I just talk to them whenever school lets out for the both of us and we talk for like, an hour or two and then we go on and do our homework assignments or whatever it is we have to do. And since he'll be in college and might have more work to do or something, and if you're afraid of annoying him, just ask him if he's busy and can talk before you guys go off into a conversation and if he says "yeah", just be like "oh sorry! i'll just talk to you when you're free". But even if a relationship doesn't get out of this, or if you two decide to part ways because it's too difficult having a long-distance relationship, you can at least still remain really good friends. I hope I helped.


its the end of summer and i have a little tan i was just wondering is their anything that will keep you tan? thank youu. (link)
Well, as you know there's tanning booths and there's still the sun, but those are very harmful to your skin and can cause skin cancer, so I'd suggest staying away from those. I've heard of this stuff called Nuetrogena Build-A-Tan I believe it's called. And I just found this website that tells you a little bit of how to keep a tan:

i've been friends with this for like 3 years and we've always been close because we saw each other pretty much every day. now we're both in different classes and we never see each other i just feel like i wanna cry because i just miss her and all that we've been through together and i really just don't wanna lose her as my best friend. has anyone else been in this situation? if you have can you tell me about it. and how can i get my friend back. thank you soo much. (link)
I used to be in this situation before last year with one of my old best friends. We only really had one class together, so we'd try and talk in it and pair up and stuff. But what else we'd do is whenever we'd get home we'd talk on the internet or talk on the phone alot and sometimes whenever school for the day would be over, I'd ride home with her on the bus and then I'd stay over her house till like, 9 o' clock at night and we'd just hang out on the weekends as much as we could. But you should also talk this opportunity to talk to new people and make new friends, and maybe even some more best friends. You're allowed to have more than one. :] And sometimes whenever you have only one best friend and you're like, attached to the hip, it makes you less approachable because people look at you and are like,"Oh, she's already talking to that girl, they're best friends. She probably doesn't have time to hang out with me." So just hang out with your best friend on the weekends, but welcome the opportunity to make more new friends. I hope I helped.


I have a boyfriend and weve been going out for a week. I know it doesnt seem like a long time, but he and I liked eachother for a long time. Well he recently is kindof ignoring me, not talking to me (like in short sentances) and he took me out of the first spot on myspace and He doesnt call very much. Its kindof getting annoying and I think he might cheat on me. My problem is, I still like him, but I do want to be happy and get rid of him early so it doesnt get bad. What do I do? (link)
Well, since you two had been liking eachother so long, he began to love the chase I guess you could call it, and now that he has you, you're just there, and he can't chase you no longer. I would try talking to him about what's going on, and why is he ignoring you and everything lately. If he doesn't really answer, try and give him a taste of his own medicine and ignoring him a bit and answering in short sentences, if he starts to come back and ask why you're not talking, just try and talk to him about it some more and be like,"Well, that's what you've been doing lately to me, and I just want to know why, is it something I did or something?" But if he still's not trying to resolve anything and fix your guys's relationship, I'd suggest giving him the boot cause obviously he's not putting in too great of an effort. And cheating COULD be a slight possibility, because whenever guys cheat on their girlfriends, they tend to feel guilty and not want to talk to them because they feel bad or look them in the eye or anything. And if he is a possible "chaser", then yeah, he might be setting his eyes on another girl to chase, but I don't think that's the case. Just try talking to him and see what's going on, and if nothing improves between the two of you, I suggest ending it, and remaining good friends. And that's good you want to be happy and try and get out of it before it possibly gets worse. Most girls might just sit there and take it. I hope I helped.


my mom keeps walking into the computer room and just "looking around". its really bugging me. every time she comes in, i have to close everything except itunes because im looking up anorexic stuff and i dont want her to think im anorexic [im not]. i even had to log off for 10 minutes because she told me to do my laundry so that she would get on and see what i was doing, but i logged off. is there nething i can do? (link)
You should just have a talk with your mother. Be like,"Mom, I know you care about me and are concerned with what I'm doing on the internet, but I still think I need some privacy and I feel like whenever you do that, I have no privacy in this house what-so-ever." Sometimes whenever my mom comes up behind me, I just let her look at what I'm looking at and I explain it to her what I'm doing. So then she knows I can be trusted and then she doesn't need to snoop around as much. I know, it gets annoying, but still. Like, she knows I have an advice site so if she ever sees searches for "anorexia" or "abuse" or something on google, she knows it has nothing to do with me. She also knows I have a myspace, I showed her it and everything [ I just didn't show her comments cause sometimes people can say bad stuff but it's all a joke but she wouldn't take it as that ] but what I do sometimes is I just go to TOOLS and then INTERENT OPTIONS [ maybe known as PRIVACY OPTIONS on yours ] and then I just find the History area of all the pages I've been to that the Navigation Bar [ where you enter URLS ] remembered, and I clear the history so it's completely blank. So she can't find my friends myspace's or read the people who ask me for advice's problems. I hope I helped.


hello. well in entreprenuership class we have to come up with a business idea and find out about it. i am going to do a magazine/catalog for islamic clothing. well i need to find out how much it costs,approximately, to start the magazine. and how much i would be earning. things like that. so please if you could help me at all i would greatly appreciate it. thank you. (link)
Well first of all, I found these sites about starting magazines:

http://www.magazinelaunch.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31

http://www.magazinelaunch.com/?gclid=CND45unOgIcCFUJaFQodsH_RKQ


I tried searching how much a creator of a magazine makes, and how much it would cost to start a magazine, but I can't find it anywhere, but hopefully maybe those two sites will be able to tell you. I hope I helped.


I just got three Ralph Lauren Polos.
I was wondering why two of the shirts have the American flag with the RL in it. And only one of the shirts has the guy on the pony? (link)
It's just that they're different designs for the shirts. They're still the same thing. Like sometimes whenever I go shopping, I notice instead of the eagle design on the American Eagle shirts, I might see an "AE" of like with Hollister, instead of a seagull/bird, I see an "HCO". I hope I helped.


My dog is about 9 years old and a male. He pees on the carpet and tile about once or twice a week. Most of the time its when we are at home. He is nutered and all of that and we already took him to a vet to check for a bladder infection. (link)
Well, did you ever go and potty train him whenever he was younger? Because that just might be the reason if you've never taught him to go outside and only outside. Like with my dogs, we taught them to go outside, but every now and then if we're all sleeping or something and can't take them out, they'll decide to go to the bathroom in other places throughout the house, so now we've taught them to go where the newspaper is: in the dining room. [ and nobody ever goes in there so it's not like anybody sees ] and whenever we spot that went in there, we just clean it up right away and it looks fine. There are these little sheet things you can buy and they're to train your dog where to go to the bathroom in what parts of the house or not in the house. I hope I helped.


I know this is a weird combination, but my room is basically dedicated to those two people. My walls alternate posters, first Marilyn then Ashley..etc etc. I really don't have anything but pictures/posters of them on my wall, and it's not like magazine cutouts or anything..all my pictures are framed, poster sized, and most black and white. Does this give a trashy feel to my room? I know you can't see it, but just how I described it. I mean, I have an absolute Hollywood Legend on my wall with someone who's barely had a career. But I love them bothhh. (link)
It doesn't sound trashy to me at all. It sounds creative, and it's two artists for you like and you want to hang up on your wall, so it shouldn't matter if it's trashy or not. I hope I helped.
