I used to go out with a boy, lets call him bob. I broke up with bob and was mean to him then apologized. I still liked bob though. I recently told someone that i still liked bob and she said she liked bob too. So a couple days later this girl is going out with bob, and people say she doesnt like me. I really like bob and she doesnt. He thinks she really likes her though. I told bob i loved him and he didnt even care. I'm jealous now what should i do?
I need advice fast! (link)
you can help if he likes you or not. was she your friend, or did you just randomly happen to tell her? either way dont let her just get away with taking him.. especially if you really like him. You cant tell him that she doesnt like him because he isnt gunna listen. you kinda are gunna have to just lay low and act like you dont care. be his friend, and talk to him like a buddy. if hes comfortable with you it wont seem so much like your trying to win him. theres so many other guys out there hun trust me.
good luck (:

My friend is ALWAYS sick. Now that it is summer, my friends and I go out alot together and have alot of sleepovers. So we are alwasy with my friend that gets scik. She just recently got me sick. I don't want ot get sick over the summer, so that means I don't want to hang out with her when she is sick. She should be hom anyway, but she doesn't want to miss anything. What can I say to her so I don't have to hang with her? (link)
well..the best thing is.. if its YOU who doesnt want to get sick then dont go. if your not the one whos actually having the sleep over then you cant really have that much of a say on whos aloud to be there.. you know? orrr you can just be like "hey your sick stay home fool i dont wanna get sick" make it like a serious joke. lol shes your friend. good luckkk (:

if you end up going and shes there sick.. just wash your hands ALOT.. dont sleep by her.. dont share food, soda, dont touch at all. that might help

one of my best friends (brylie) is convinced shes in love with this guy. hes rude && controlling... he always her friends we need to give them "more space" when in reality - they have all the "space" in the world. he wants them to be left alone at parties && such. and we've been doing that. he's not really that rude to brylie, he's extremely pushy towards me && the rest of her friends. she's constantly blowing us off for him && making us feel unwanted and unneeded. what can we do?

thanks. ((i'll deff rate you if the advice is good)) =]
&hearts always. (link)
well the best you can do is just give all the advice you can.. if she doesnt take it then its fine. just wait they wont last forever and sooner or later she will realize you guys are right. you have to understand she likes him so shes gunna think hes just the greatest guy ever.. when really friends know best. My best friend will do the same thing. she wont listen to me.. and then in the end shes like "geeze amanada your always right.. yet i never listen" its just how stubborn us girls can be. Try and just understand too where shes coming from. Just be understanding dispite how unwanted and unneeded you may be okay (:

good luck! things will turn around.. all you need to do is give it time.

so today my boyfriend came over to my place and wanted to see my myspace. he doesnt have a computer and cant see mine so i showed him it. there were to comments left by two guys both were my cousins friend and i only have talked to them once and he got mad about them. they didnt even say anything bad just\" hey life is good thanks 4 askin..
oh thats cool your coming to our skool i like that trust me your going to have alot of fun there and no im not going to summer skool.
but are you going to summer skool?? \" and the other one said\"hey how you doing? hows things going wich ya it was a pleasure meeting you last time ^_^ hope your doing great! \"

nothin bad but the first thing he said was i knew you talked to guys online and that you cheat on me.

someone please help me out! (link)
my boyfriend gets overly jealous about EVERYTHING. if he cant learn to trust you.. then just end it. honestly no matter how much you care you DONT wanna continue. my boyfriend started out with little things like comments and having guys on my AIM buddy list.. to now he calls me twice every hour and asks me a million times what im doing. he calls my friends boyfriends to see if were really doing what i said. yet he claims he trusts me. i've never cheated but hes just WAY too jealous. honestly tell him he needs to relax that you care about him and your not interested in anyone else, plus that guys are gunna leave you comments..you do have other guy friends who are just FRIENDS.

hopefully everything gets better (:


ok well, this is kind of a retarded question but ill rate 5's for honest answers.

so i was talking to my friend bob on the phone and he told me to three way my bf mike and so pretty much they did ALL the talking and left me out of everything. then I was like "well, im leaving" and hung up. then mike called back and was all like "hey whats up? when you hung up it hung up on both of us so ya" and then i was like "call him back" and he was like "i dont want to" then bob called on the other line and mike was like "ok thats him" and then we said goodbye to eachother. now its been about 15 minutes now and i miss him and i want to talk to him but at the same time i dont want to let my guard down. as you can see im a very stubern person. anywho should i call him back or let him talk to bob? and also sometimes i feel as if im the only one that cares about "us" and i want to talk to him about it but i dont know how...any sugestions??? thnks sooo much! (link)
thats a typical guy for you. just be glad he isnt obbsessive over you and HAS to talk to you 24/7. let him do his guy thing n talk to bob. he'll call you. if he doesnt call him. theres no reason to even put up a guard its just a phone call. plus most girls care more than guys do, and guys should care but once they get to a certian age they will.. dont even worry, dont be mad at him. yet if this is ALWAYS happening then tell him. hes your bf he best be understanding. (: good luck girlie.


what is freshman friday?my friend said if its freshman friday the seniors gonna throw u into the garbage is it true? how do u avoid it? (link)
here it was that you'd get milked.. when i was a freshman it never even happened.. dont trip. you'll be fine (:


where can you get those cute sweatpants that say "pink" on the butt? like i heard you can get them at victorias secret but idk. thanks and i rate! (link)
yupp victoria secret is the place (:


So okay i really want to but some like new bras and more thongs and underwear from victorias secret. But the thing is my mother is always like "nice thong"(sarcastically)when she hand me my luandry. My mom is kind of old fashioned and like really werid about that kind of thing and i am not sure why. How do i buy the things(online) i want without her being all werid.
Thanks XoX T (link)
moms can get like that. Mine never did but my aunt did with my cousin. Shes the same age as you and my aunt says the same thing. So i just take her with me and she brings her money. She gets what she wants, goes home and just doesnt say anything. If my aunt asks she will tell her what she bought dispite what my aunt feels she just doesnt say much to my cousin.

Go with friends or someone whos responsible to drive you and what not. Online isnt the best way you need your moms credit card.

If you have to order online the just forget what your mom thinks. When it comes to certain things my mom and i cant agree with or she makes fun of me for i just ignore it and laugh. It'll stop.

Good luck (:


Ok to put it straightfoward.. my boyfriend won't make out with me. We've talked about. And I mean we've been going out for a few months so I think we should.

How can I just like getting it stated with him. I'm used to the guys starting it with me.

Help!! (link)
is he like afraid to or something? Thats so crazy. Guys usually cant wait for any of that stuff to happen. But hes one of the few i guess whos nervous maybe. Has he ever made out with a girl at all? Hm well maybe you should make the first move i guess? Of you've kissed him just try to keep going. Good luck with that one (:


my mom made me break up with my boyfriend just recently.I did what was told,but my mom still thinks we are going out.my mom makes me use the phone in the living room or let her listen on the other line.I have no privacy.How do I get more privacy?why is she doing this when I did what I was suppose to? (link)
ask her about it. Ask her why she keeps you in the living room talking on the phone.. why you cant have your own privacy. get it through her head that you ARENT with him. Tell her you like this other guy. Maybe then she might believe you. Does she not want you to have a bf? Well hopefully your mom sees that. Good luck &&hope i helped some (:


I really really like one of my best friends ex's. If he asks me out idk what to say! Cause I love my best friend but I really like him too!

And if this helps, my best friend decided to like the same guy I used liked right after I told her I liked him. ( I like her EX now ) And I was really hurt cause she started flirting with him constantly and won him over and now they're going out so she took a guy away from me, would it be wrong to go out with her old ex?! (link)
i think it would. honestly true friends dont do that to eachother. Even though she has you just shouldnt. &&you were hurt when she went and liked the same guy as you.. so i dunno. Even though its her ex. talk to her about it. ask her if he happend to ask you out would it be okay if you said yes. Tell her you like him and the reason your talking to her about it is because you want her to know. Its the honest way to do things. Good luck && hope i helped (:


When it comes to guys I am a total spaz. I can't even look a guy in the eye. I get a lot of compliments but I don't believe them, I don't know why. When a guy look at me I usually ignore them, so then they think I'm a snob or mean person, or that I think I'm too good for them, which isn't true, I don't think i'm good enogh for them. How i can change this and start to have guy friends and a boyfriend, cause I'm really sick of being alone. Please help. Thanks (link)
to be honest. the only thing you can do is just believe in yourself. Know that you are pretty that you are a nice person and show that to people. In order for guys to notice you and be your boyfriend and friend n stuff, you gotta change the attitude. People can compliment you and not mean it but dont think so negitive. When a guy comments you say thanks smile, flirt alittle. Hopefully i helped. Good luck dear. And rememeber its YOU whos gotta be able to respect yourself in order for others to respect you.

very sorry it took me so long to answer you. i didnt have internet for a few days (:


there is this boy that I want to go with, but I don't know if he likes me. I want to ask him this weekend, but I am too afraid. I would think that either he would say "no" or " yes" or "I don't know". He lives in SC and I live in NC. If I went with him, I would think he would cheat on me, but he plans on moving with his dad who lives in my house because he is dating my mom. (they are not married) What should I do and how should I tell him? (link)
well honestly as much as you like him, you might wanna try and hold it in because his dad is dating your mom! married or not that can get alitttleee strange. He might think your a freak. I had a friend who did that.. liked his dads gf's daughter.. she was so weirded out she wont even come near him now. And there parents ended up together. Idk. Thats a tough situation to be in im sure.

Your better off just waiting it out and seeing if your parents end up together. Blood related or not its very diffrent to be seeing your step brother.

good luck dear (:


Hey, Im 13 and a female. I would like to start tanning because I am very white/pale. She says that 13 is too young to start tanning and that I should wait until I am 16. I really dont think that I would be willing to wait until I am 16. I mean come on that is 3 years! Is there anything that I can say or do to make her agree. Please dont say you should wait till your 16. Ill rate high. Molly ♥ (link)
Your mom says your too young? To be honest... no one wanted me to tan either, i eventually convinced my mom into letting me. Now she makes me tan cause she says i look good. Try like on your next vacation.. tell her you wanna tan and just try it out, just that one time. and see if it works. If not then you can get the spray stuff at longs or walgreens rite aid. idk any of those. They work good as long as there not the totally cheapy brands. Good luck (:


Well lately I have been feeling sort of excluded. I have this group of 5 other people that I mainly usually hang out with. Lets name them Lucinda, Sabrina, Ashley, Margie, and Maria. Well were all in 8th grade. Lucinda, Sabrina, Ashley, Maria, and I are all in the same class. But Margie is by herself in the other class. Well lately Lucinda and Sabrina have been hanging out alot, But only when Margie is not around. When Margie is around Lucinda and her are like bffe. When Margie isnt around they are like bffe. So when Margie isnt around I feel like Sabrina is using me because Lucinda sorta ignores everyone else [ me Sabrina Ashley and Maria ] when she is with Margie. Same goes for when Lucinda is with Sabrina. Well Ashley and Maria sorta do there own thing most of the time and dont really care about this as much as I do, But they told me that they do notice this and its getting quite annoying. Im sorta stuck in the middle. I mean i hang out with Ashley and Maria when there acting like this, but i wish it was liek the beginning of the year. In the beginning of the year we were all bffe and no one excluded or ignored anyone. I know that this isnt the perfect world and things like this are going to happen but lately its been happenign just a little too much. Can anyone tell me what to do? This has happened once before and I tried talking to them and it was fixed for like 3 days then they started up again. Should i just stick with Ashley and Maria or find a new crew? Please help! Ill rate good. Frankie ♥ (link)
i've defintely been there before. But im now a sophmore in highschool and things will defintely change for you. People do that. Dont take it so rough, meet as MANY people as you can in school. Have more then just those 5 girls.. cause sounds to me like your right she does seem to use you. But thats how it goes. Everyone i know has had that happen. Me? Well 2 out my 6 friends from 8th grade are still my best friends along with the new 4 others. But The other 3 dont even talk to us. It just happens. Be there for all of them, dont bad mouth one of them to another one.. just play it cool. As long as you can always be trusted and yet still have alot of fun. Its all good.

Try having them all over. Your all friends. Tell them ALL about it. Take lots of pictures have girl talk. rent movies..all the funn stuff. Maybe that will make some changes.

good luck (: &hope i helped!

and i want to wear them with this skirt

ahw lol. no socks. cute skirt! (:


At my school, we have this dance where the girls ask the guys (hence the backwards part). I have a few guy friends that I'm thinking of asking, but I don't know how to ask them. Girls, if you could share how you asked a guy out (or to a dance), and guys, if you could share how you'd like to be asked, that would be great. Also, none of these guys are romantically involved with me in any way. Also, if you can think of cute ways to do my hair or other dance tips/tricks (i've never been to a dance, really.) then I'd really appreciate it. Thank you so much, and I look forward to hearing back from you soon. :)

Oh, and also, should I ask a freshman (I'm a freshman) or an upperclassman? (link)
it doesnt make a diffrence if you ask a freshman or upperclassman just make sure there someone that you would wanna go with. Some ways to ask him are..

-Write your message on balloons and attach candy
- order a pizza saying the message you want. arrange the pizza so it will come during lunch at your school, especially for him. be behind him after he opens it and sees it.
- get a shirt and write on it with permint marker saying your name somewhere on the shirt. then in WASHABLE ink cover the rest of the shirt in a bunch of other random girls names or girls that he would know.. attach balloons and get candy. On each balloon put something like "will you go to the dance" then have a card saying "wash the shirt to see who i am" After washing it he should see your name.
-does he drive?? you can go to like party works or any kinda store that would sell Car paint. Its like foam paint and you can write on car windows. You'd wanna do it like hour and 30 mins before schools out so it can dry.
-you can by a bunch of random candy bars and on a big poster board come up with a story using them and ask him to go with you. EX:hey "big hunk" would "uno" like to go to the dance with a real "sweetart" ect..
-make a scavenger hunt.
-on a white board in each of his classes write a peace of the question.


theres a few to choose from. Its hard to think of stuff thats new when your just asking a guy friend. hope i helped some! (:


ok im crazy about my bf. no one knows im dating him. he would do anything for me. but im worried what everyone will think. me and him have talked about it. and he is cool with it. he said it is my life and i can let people knwo about us only if i want. im not ashamed of him by no means. i dont know why i cant tell anyone. he always says that we dotn have to have the whole world nkow about us to have a good relationship. i agree. but i feel like im keeping my life away from everyone. what would you do in my position. ill rate high. (link)
whats the big secret? You like him. He will do anything for you, sounds to me like hes a good guy by being understanding about not telling people. No you dont have to tell everyone "omgoshhh like i have a boyfriend" and brag about him and tell them every detail, but saying you and him are together is completely harmless. Theres always things that you keep from people, stuff that stays between you n your boy but still, people can know. Good luck dear (:


i dont know what this goes under. but me and my bf have been sexually active. there was a point when we thought i was pregnant. we were relieved when we found out i wasnt. but ive been babysitting a newborn baby. adn she is just so cute. i babysit her for hours 5 nights a week. he helps me. adn he does a great job. we both want a baby now. but were in high school. juniors. how can we get over this. i mean wanting a baby. ill rate high. plez help (link)
well to be honest. 5 hours is nothing. I mean you having a kid your stuck with it everyday, every hour. you wont be able to go to school if you get pregnant.. some people are cruel. Finish highschool, go to college. Get married THEN have a kid. What if you and your boyfriend somehow dont work out? your stuck with this kid, cause its all fun and games, yeah its cute, and yeah its his and yours but come on, all it takes is for you two to be over and he wont want anything to do with you or vise versa. Plus i dunno about yours but my parents would TRIP OUT. wow i'd be in BIGGGG trouble. I want a family, i absolutely LOVE kids.. but im waiting.. its the smartest thing to do. Hopefully i've helped.

(:


I need help. This Friday, our teacher is going to give us a Document Based Question essay (DBQ) and I have NO CLUE how to do it! I don't know how to form the thesis, what to include in the paper, how to lead into things, or anything. Please explain in DETAIL what to do because this is worth a big grade! Please also give me do's and dont's for the essay. Thank you so much!

~Again, please explain thoroughly and easily what to do to get a great grade. (link)
thesis statement in an essay is a sentence that explicitly identifies the purpose of the paper or previews its main ideas.

Thesis: People are poisoning the environment with chemicals merely to keep their lawns clean.

Thesis: Solving our environmental problems is more difficult than many environmentalists believe.

A thesis is the main idea, not the title. It must be a complete sentence that explains in some detail what you expect to write about.


I CANT HELP MUCH ON HOW TO DO THE DBQ BUT IF YOU'D LIKE MESSAGE ME WITH YOUR TOPIC AND I CAN HELP YOU. DIRECTIONS ALSO. I DO GOOD WRITING AND I'VE ALWAYS GOTTEN A'S ON MY PAPERS.. SO I CAN HELP. JUST LET ME KNOW. (:
