Ok, I think we have all been here, but I've been really thinking about my past lately. Mostly my love life. My problem is this: my first girlfriend really had a vicelock on my life. We went out for a little over a year. We nearly got back together last summer, but someone I thought was a friend severly knocked that for a tailspin. Me and "C" ended on very bad terms. A nuclear bomb coulda done less damage. But I look back, and I realize, I cant escape the fact that I am NOT over her. I can't tell if I just feel guilty, cause it IS my fault, Im big enough to admit that, or if I do still care about her. I want to write her a letter to apoligize, but I wonder if it will fall on deaf ears. What should I do? (link)

Really think about you feelings, and then decide whether it is worth the risk or not. You also need to accept the fact that it IS your fault, and you should let her know this regardless of whether you still like her or not, or you write her the letter or not.

I'm eighteen years old and a high school graduate. I frequently help babysit my younger cousins (ages 2-12) for free or at a low price, and I am fairly used to the quirks, likes and dislikes, of behavior of my relatives.
A family friend has asked me to babysit their 7 (I think 7) year old son for about eight hours this Thursday (I write this on Sunday). I like the kid and he seems to hero-worship me, so I'm fairly certain I'm going to accept. However, he has a reputation for wild behavior, so I am going in guarded.
My problem is, while I've played with him and helped to babysit him before, I've never been the primary babysitter. While my mother will be home that day, I really want to be as self-sufficient as possible.
So, I was looking for some pointers for babysitting non-family. I'm thinking that I'll start him out on cartoons, since he'll be arriving at my house about seven, and break up the rest of the day with semi-healthy snacks every 2-3 hours, and blocks of toys, drawing, and video games. Movies if I get REALLY desperate.
If you could give me tips, crisis management techniques, and ideas for free or low-cost crafts and games, I would greatly appreciate it. Movie rental suggestions are also welcome, although my budget is very small, and my selection is limited to a single small store. (link)

Being a babysitter myself, if he has issues, first of all tell him if he does whatever he does wrong again, he'll be punished. If he does this again, put him in his room and don't let him come out until he has promised you to be good. When he is really good though, reward him with a sweet snack that "snack hour" instead of a healthy one, and let him know why he got it. Other that that, you seem to have everything under control. Do let him do what he wants, but just suggest things he might like, don't MAKE him do anything.

Okay, well one of my best friends was a cutter, and if you are, you need to seek help because it's not healthy. If you're not, and they were there from before, you need to explain that to everyone and let them know you're happy and you have no reason to help. Give them an example even, of why you have one of the scars (i.e., you scratched yourself when climbing a tree)

i just got my nose pierced and i dont like it. how do i turn this around and make it look like it was my moms fault? (link)

You can't make it your mom's fault if its you're own fault. Don't blame other people for your mistakes.

ok, i have this continuing problem with my neighbor down my street, ok, background time... Me and this kid, lets just call him Mike, have been friends off again-on again for the better part of 10 years, but it never got this bad ever until the start of this summer. Ok, first of all (not meaning to brag here), i bench 245 and am considerably stronger than Mike, but he insists that he is better than me at everything, and thinks he owns every one, on top of he thinks he is like a human dictionary, trying to use big words that dont fit. Well, whenever i disagree with him, Mike AND my younger brother always decide that im being "cocky and arrogent" but thats the case with Mike, and lately it has gotten so bad that i have litteraly caught my fist in air from hitting his face. please tell me what to do, and plz dont tell me to talk it out with him, there is no talking with this kid.
thank you and i rate very high for real responses.

Honestly, if he keeps this up, just stop all relations with him, because he is obviously not a good friend if he does this continuously.
