Ask me anything, but I prefer questions about menstruation, spirituality, feminism, and history.
However, since there are so many confuzzled, "shy," young women out there, I usually end up answering questions about dating.

Am I the only one that believes people should type correctly when asking a question? Is there some way to create something that would change words that were "Chatspeak" to English?
For example:
there is dis boi, i relli relli like him! wat do i do?
Would become:
There is this boy, I really, really, like him! What do I do?
I know that is a dumb question to start with, but it's an example. I don't know how to create a program that would change the "fake" words into "real" words.. if you know, and would share, you rock!

I agree completely!

Ok... how do you feel when a girl asks you out, or how do you think you would react to it?
And how do you feel when a girl you like talkes to you?
I really wanna know. I'm also thinking of asking my guy friend out maybe later this week. Do you have any good advice?
rate high* (link)

warning: I'm a girl
I asked my boyfriend out and he was (and still is) so glad I did.
I asked him to go to Borders Cafe with me. Laid-back and inexpensive. You might want to go with something like that.

Hey you guys.
I Just wanted to know what is the diffence between Oral sex and "real sex" jw.
:-) (link)
| |
Oral sex is just that, oral. "Real" sex (stupid Clinton making us specify everything!) involves the penis penetrating the vagina.

I am so lonely. I can't get a boyfriend. I have been so broken lately. I don't know what to do to make a guy want to be with me. I have guy friends and i mean i am a unique person but i can't get a guy. i am not skinny but i am not too heavy. i am 15 and i probably weigh about 190 lbs. what do i do to make myself more attractive for guys to look at? are there any certain measures i should take such as loosing weight or changing my personality? please help...luv forever--->kelsey lou (link)
| |
Rather than trying to get guys to like you, find a guy who you like and ask him out. It doesn't matter how you appear to others as long as you have a good body image. Would you really want to go out with a guy who likes you only for your looks anyway?
|
1st of i'm 16 and i'm in 10th grade and a girl...and i have some pretty awesome best girl friends...well i make-out with a few of them...i don't mind it i actually have fun doing...but i wouldn't call my self bi...i read this thing online and it says that we experment to find out what we like...well i love makeing-out with both sexes! but i've never done more with a girl...i have and talked about eating girls out with my other best friend and we have talked about doing to each other...but i could never see my self with a girl...because i just love boys...but what i am getting at is it wrong to want to do this stuff with girls...it's mainly with my best friend...it's just a experment..is it wrong to experment with her? she has ate a girl out before..i mean i'm not scared to do it and i don't feel un-comfortable caouse she is my best frined...my point...does any of this seem wrong?
((i don't want the stupid rood people to answer this...or jerks who think it's "nasty"))
love: the girl who doesn't know!! (link)

What my concern is what your friends think. Do they think that you're their girlfriend? They might think that this is more than just making out.
Would you make out with your guy friends? If not, what's so different about your female friends?
|
|
how long do you think me and my gf should start kissing? 2 monthes 3...? (link)

I waited one month before making the move.

well i like this guy people think hes a geek but i don't know why. well he is really smart like he loves to read and stuff hes not popular but i am and people have found out that i like him and there laughing at me. i really like him and i could really care less what people think but i just don't want to loose my friend over something like this( that is if we start to go out) i am 13 years old an i'm a girl. please tell me if i should go out with him or just try to forget about him and keep my reputation. thanks a lot! (link)

Reputation and popularity are worth nothing. They don't last and all they give you are lackeys and a swelled head. If you like him so much, ask him out.
She who would leave you for going out with a "geek" (trust me, the geeks are the best, they respect you and listen to you) is not a friend. A friend would respect your decisions and stick by you no matter your decisions.

hey everyone i was just wondering, because this guy liked me before and now he doesn't. he says i'm boring. i think he only liked me before was because he didn't know me, now he kinda does and doesn't like you. how do i get him to want me/like me? he knows i like him and he told me he doesn't like me like that, but we could do stuff. i want for him to regret not asking me out. how do i do that? thanks in ad advance! i rate good. any tips are good! (link)
|
Why do you want him to regret not asking you out? The belief that guys must ask us out is sexist. If you like him so much, why don't you ask him out?
Or, find some other guy and ask him out.
|
|
well, I REALLY like this one guy, I mean REALLY LIKE and I have a feeling he likes me too. I have two classes with him and he like stares at me, but like alot of the time, I think a guy likes me and he doesn't.... so I need like to figure out if he likes me, can anyone help me? (link)
| |
Ask him out. If he wants to go, he likes you. If he doesn't, he doesn't like you.
|
Ok I am 13 and in the seventh grade.There are some guys that like me but they wont ask me out. (I dont like them though) And every sigle person in my school has had a bf or a gf no lie. Except me I like some people but they wont ask me out and its kind of embarrassing. I sont know how to act or what to do. I mean I am so popular and all serious. But soem times I wish I wasnt bexcuz I think that guy dont want me if I am.
there is only 54 more days of school and I havent had a bf before.. plz help (link)
|
The first thing you should do is to learn some basic grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
You're 13, don't worry about getting a boyfriend just because "everyone" in your school has.
When you do like a guy, ask him out. If you wait around for a guy to ask you out, nothing will happen.

Me and this girl have been friends for like ever (well since like elementary school) anyways, we botth have made more friends, and we share alot of the same friends. anyways my real problem is that i feel that she would rater hang out with them than me. she invites them over like all the time. she hasnt invited me over since like the summer. i know this probablymakes me sound jelouse and selfish, but i just wish she would spend more time with me. what should i do. i dont want to tell her that i feel left out, cuz i iwll feel stupid. i reallyneed help please (link)
|
If she's such a great friend, why would you feel so stupid talking to her about your feelings? She, being your friend, should respect your feelings. If she doesn't, it's time to find some other friends.
How about you invite your friends over rather than just watching her invite them to her place?

I'm 19/f. I dont know how to solve this problem between me and my mom. Were constanly rowing and i dont know how to make them stop. The rows are about everything home my job money the lot. Its really getting me down and i'm getting really really depressed i've tried talking to her but it just ends in a row. Help. (link)
|
Do you have a relative your mom respects and listens to? Whenever my mom and I fight and she's not listening, I call on an aunt or a cousin to set her straight.
If that doesn't work, get a place of your own so you don't have to see her.

I have this boyfriend, he's really nice but i never ever get to see him because he lives in a different town. Everytime i get the chance to go visit it seems like he has something else to do. He has cheated on me about 3 times already but we made up. He calls me every night and is a sweet heart. I dont noe if i should stay with him or break up. I feel so bad when i break up with him because ive done it before that i just go out with him again. what would i say? someone please help (link)
| |
He's cheated on you THREE TIMES!!!! He doesn't care about you, he takes you for granted. He just acts sweet to keep you whenever he doesn't have someone else to care about him. Dump him and don't feel bad. You need to get rid of this slimeball.
|
OK this is for everyone!
I have never had a boy friend! Is that bad?? And I want one, but no one wants to go w/ me! Cause i am a tomboy! I like to skate and stuff like that! I personally think i imtate boys! Cause i can shoot a ball into a basketball and i play sports! Is this a bad thing? I am 13 and i have a lot of boy friends! I have one that is my bff and i like hima lot is that ok? Plzz i rate high!!
Confused (link)

Wait, first you say you've never had a boyfriend, then you say you have a lot of boyfriends. I'm going to use logic to clear this up: You've never had a boyfriend, but you have many friends who are guys.
You're just 13, don't worry about it. I didn't have a boyfriend until I was 17. It's not bad that you're a sporty tomboy. Believe me, it's better to be appreciated for being talented and fun than for being a Barbie.
You could ask out your bff, that's better than ok.

Im 15/f and its been 2 years since i was really involved in a relationship. From 5th grade-8th grade i had a nice share of relationships..but now it seems like i'll never have a relationship with someone until after i graduate! I'm a normal 15 yr old.. i want someone to like me and i want to like them back..have a relationship..make out with them..have a bond with them ,etc. Its getting to the point where im becoming desperate for someone. What should i do? Is there anything i can do? (link)
|
You're 15, don't worry about it. I didn't get a boyfriend until I was 17. You have three years until you graduate so relax.
It's pretty much a matter of mindset. I went into my freshman year (you're a frosh or soph, right?) thinking, "I'm going to get a perfect boyfriend and we'll last forever and it'll be perfect and tralalala." That didn't work. I went into sophomore year thinking, "I'm going to get a perfect boyfriend and he'll make me happy." That didn't work. I finally went into junior year thinking, "If I get a boyfriend, great. If not, no big deal." Whalaa, boyfriend!
So, what I'm trying to say is don't sweat it. Relax and enjoy being single. Guys will see your confidence and laid-back-ness and will come running.

Okay this is all very confusing, I'm sorry and I hope it doesn't make ya'lls head spin but here is my problem.
I made out with a guy totally unaware that he had a girlfriend.
Well recently, I got in contact with his brother, and she was over there. I mentioned something to his brother about us making out, in jest. She got on and immediatly asked me if whatI say is true.
I said, yes. It was. I wasn't gonna lie.
She told me that they'd been dating for three years straight, and she thought she might be prengnat. HE told me nothing of the sort, that she was just a friend.
After much hassle, she called me and told me she'd confront him about it. She did, and he denied it, and she told me "I don't believe you, I trust him."
Things are blowing up, random friends of hers are IMing me like crazy, and his brother is sort of half and half beleving me, yet feeling dedication towards his brother.
Of course the whole attention thing is on them..its oh "Krista* made a big deal about it.." "OH krista is trying to ruin a relationship" when that totally wasn't my view or anything.
How can I help what she saw? I think its been hurting me more then it has them. What do I do?
I want a logical way to get back at them, or to show them that I don't give two dead rats.
I want the girlfriend to know that it IS true no matter how much he denies it, though it doesnt matter much to me if we messed around or not.
HELP!
xxthanksxx (link)

I get the idea that this has happened before and she just doesn't want to believe it. You've done all you can and, when they break up (as they probably will), you can just say, "I told you so." Until then, ignore them, block them on IM, and hang out with some other people who are unaware of the situation (and don't tell them about it).

1) is it best to learn one foreign language at a time? or can i try to learn 2 at a time (japanese and spanish) ?
2) what foreign language would be more applicable/useful as a future nurse (or future stewardess) ?
3) is it enough to learn on-line (from all the free on-line lessons) , or should I enroll in a language course in a school?
4) pls give me tips on learning a new language =)
and maybe on how to improve my memory
thank you! =) (link)
|
1) Probably one at a time or else you'd get really confused
2) The most applicable/useful second language for nearly any profession would be Spanish solely because it's so widely spoken
3) I would go to a class, but I know very little about online lessons so I wouldn't be the best one to answer this
4) While you're lying in bed, waiting for sleep, or in line for something, or during commercials while watching tv, or just whenever you're not thinking, run through the declensions and vocab and all that in your head. It's amazing how much it helps!
I took Latin all during high school and I love it! It helped my vocab (English) so much. ...I'm a big nerd :-P

hey guys! i need some cute ideas on how to ask a guy to the sadies dance. its when the girl asks the guy and they wear clothes that match eachother. just in case ya didnt know. anything BESIDES decorating there car, and there bedroom.. something random and cute. (link)
|
Write, "So-and-so, go to the dance with me!" on your face with lipstick (or permament marker!)
Make him a huge, funny card out of posterboard
Give him a weird plushie and tie a note to it with some ribbon. In the note, write a funny poem asking him to the dance
