Q: i really had no idea where to put this. sorry.

so here is my dilemma... recently well about two months ago i moved and about a month ago i started a new school. i went from a small school, where i knew everyone to a school thats huge. i havent made any real friends. and im not doing so good in class, well in most classes. im tired of being alone, ive stayed at home with my family every single weekend, and it sucks. i havent even met anyone that i would really want to be my friend. well a few im just exaggerating. everyone i meet i cant stand. there are a few i take that back. but for the most part every single country accent gets on my nerves. which has never been the case before.

my family is military so ive moved a fe times before the last time was in the 7th grade. i was lucky to make friends they became the best friends i ever had, now i hardly talk to them, because things come up different time zones and one of them just got there computer taken away. and its killing me not to have anyone to talk to. i had this guy that i really really liked. and ive only talked to him a few times since i moved.

its not like people havent talked to me. it just really hasnt gone after the where did you move from? stage. i dont know how to remake friends.

and the guys, god. i think ive had 3 people who already like me since i moved here and we have had like one conversation. which bothers me so much. and the other ones who do have conversations with me (that like me) i dont like. i still miss the guy i left behind and i just want friends. whether guy or girl. and i like to take things slow. like everything here isnt like that. it goes from going out to having sex the next day. everything is just so so different. IM LOST. i dont know what to do. oh plus i dont know how to talk to a guy. when someone cute comes up to me i freeze up and walk faster. which i look like a loser. im not comfortable and this is totally unlike me. this whole blurb im writing it unlike me

im sorry to be so negative but i cant take it anymore. im shy i dont know how to make friends, and as cliche as it sounds im lonely. please please please help. im desperate.


thanks in advace
i just recently moved to missouri my self from a big city. i can admit the first month i begged to go back to ohio and i am out of high school that looks bad although i got a job at the wal mart( which is the towns mall) i still dont have friends i go and hang out with and i dont have a friend to talk to. but the girls i work with help and myspace helps.

Q: hi un i had sex for the first time with my guy in july for the first time & it did hurt. but we're going to have sex again in like 2 days. but i was wondering even though it's the 2nd time will it still hurt since we haven't done for like 2 months? please reply back asap.
it is possible but if you are feeling nervous than make it romantic. with music and the fondling before the sex. take your time with it and let him know a head of time your a little nervous. good luck

Q: at the begining of this summer i dated this boy. and we broke up because i found out he liked my friend to. meenwhile we stayed friends all summer, talked all the time. i still had sooo many feelings for him, and he liked me to. but we just never did anything about it. well at the end of the summer he started talking to me less and less and then i realized he liked my friend and they were dating. well me and her kinda drifted apart over the summer because she got heavy into drugs, drinking, and having sex with alot of different guys and thats just not how i am so i didnt want to deal with that. well he knew about that and would tell me how much he couldnt stand how she changed to be like that and everything then when i found out they were dating i blew up at him. we were friends since like the begining of september thenn we started talking sometimes, not fighting for once, then last night he texted me and we were talking and we were both going to the football gamme and i needed a ride home and he said hed bring me home. well he was with his girlfriend at the game and i didnt want to get in his car w. him and her so i was like no its ok i got a ride, well he brought her home so i was like ok you can bring me home..we were in his car w. his friend and his sis and i realized how i still had feelings for him. and he was gonna break up with his girlfriend bc she like ditched him for some kid to get messed up with and he was mad and like she is too demanding. well i texted him a little bit ago and asked what he was doing he goess with her. and i just fell apart. idk what to do. any ideas on this?
you can't be the person who breaks people up. maybe you guys are ment to be friends and maybe later on you guys can be more. if you can hang out and just support him with his decisions see what his next move is. if they break up than see what happens.

Q: I love the whole idea of the world of fashion. And i would love to one day do something along those lines. However, I'm not extremely fashionable...i mean i am...like i can put 2 and 2 together, and i always look put together, and i do my best to look "fashionable" But i dont want to go to fashion school...b/c i can't design or anytthing like that. Is there any carreers that would suit me? (i'm a senior in high school and i'll be attending college next fall. Thanks so muchh!!
Wedding Planner. you dont have to design just be creative and putting things together

Q: My ex-boyfriend called me today out of the blue when I was out with some friends. He was just like, "Hey, I just drove past your house! And I was like, man I haven't talked to that girl in awhile so I figured I'd call..." So I told him I wasn't home and asked him why he was at my house. And it was really strange, because he didn't really have anything to say to me he just wanted to chat we didn't talk long since I was with people. He said he'd probably call me back later on. So what is going on? He is obviously thinking about me. But it seems almost stalker-ish. What should I do if he keeps calling?
if you don't want to talk to him tell him that. tell him it creeps your out and you all haven't talked in a while prior to that phone call and you want to leave it at that.

Q: I just want to get some people's opinions on this: What do you think about girls asking guys out?

ANY AND ALL OPINIONS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED :)
go for it!

Q: Ok so there is this guy that I think I like and he is really a good guy and I think he might like me back but here is the thing...he has a kid... and he is 16 (I'm 16 too) and I don't want to get into bad situation to were my parents are going to flip because he has a kid and I'm afraid that if I do go out with him that is going to be like way serious see I'm a really laid back type of person I like to have a good time and I know when to be serious... I just don't know if I can do that all the time and also I don't want him to be pressuring me to do anything with him because I'm not that type of person I am still a virgin and I'm not afraid to admit that but I just don't want him to expect me to have sex with him just because he has done it in the past... I really don't think he would do that but you never really know... What do you think I should do??
Dont worry about sex. If it comes up tell him you are a virgin and you are not ready if he doesn't under stand that you two are not meant to be together. Also just because he has a child he doesnt expect you to have sex with him i have a child who is going to be 2 and i dont expect that from anyone. you are old enough to make your own decisions in a relationship and tell your parents that you are still a virgin and you plan on staying it for some time and they have nothing to worry about he made the choice to be a father that has nothing to do with your parents.

Q: Male, 25.
I'll keep it quick.

My girlfriend went away for a year overseas. We kept in touch, and everything.

But when she came back, it's like we're constantly at odds. I mean, we were one of those classical bickering couples already. But now she's seemingly intolerant of just everything I do. And she's increasingly stopped being patient when I can't do something with her because of me observing religious occasions. I mean, she used to be cool with our religious differences, and now she acts like the same things I've always done are now inconvenient for her.

What's adding to my problems is that I'm starting to realize that I've been nursing a crush on a long-time female friend, who just recently finally managed to land the man she's always wanted.

I'm too honest to turn on a committment like the kind I made to my girlfriend, and I'm too kind to tell my friend my feelings which could cause problems for her.

Honestly, I feel like if things go on as they are, I'm going to go crazy or have a breakdown or drive my car into a tree. But regardless of the options available to me, there is no path that doesn't make me the villain.

The only course I seem to have left is simply cut ties with my friend, and see my relationship to whatever end it may take. And when it does end, just never bother with it again.

Anyone have a better solution for me?
if your female friend is in a relationship ending contact with her would be a good idea. if you care about her let her be happy with the mad she has always wanted

as for your girlfriend maybe you guys arn't ment to work things out and believe me stressing about it will not help you with anything it will cause more problems may lead to depression. try the single life for a little bit take a break. good luck i hope i could help.

Q: i want my hair to look wet an dcurly, but not too short, or poofy. and, i want to kno how i can get it to stay looking like that all day! is there another way to get it like that, without scrunching it? cuz that doesnt work on my hair!
i know you said scrunching doesnt work on your hair but have you tried didnt things like... when you get out of the shower brush out your hair and add muse kind of a lot and scrunch it in and take a rubber band and make it tight into a bun on top of your head and go to sleep like that or wait a couple hours when you take it down dont brush it or comb.. and and hair spray.

Q: i dated my ex for 9 months we broke up 3 months ago..i never wanted to break up with her she just wanted some space and figure things out in her life...after we broke up she stopped wearing her promise ring...this past week she called me and i basically poured my heart out to her about everything..telling her i wanna be with her i miss her and all that..so she tells me she would like to work things out but take it a step at a time...she told me give her time she will come around...saturday we hung out for a lil bit and she was wearing the ring i got her...so ever since monday i havnt heard from her ive been texting her i called her twice..i just really need advice on what to do and if things look good between us and if things would work...i really would like a girls opinion but anyone feel free to answer
hey, i am sure she doesn't mean to be hurting you. maybe you came on to strong or something. if she is blowing you off chances are she could be talking to other guys as well. leave her a voice mail if she doesnt answer let her no what is on your mind but keep it short in simple. tell her you need to talk to her about a few things because you are well confused and you feel like she is pushing you away something like that.

Q: So simply put;
I am a 16 year old girl.
Can I be in love?
young love
high school sweetheart
all those meanings are true
of course you can me in love!

Q: Ok so I have started to like this guy and we have been friends for a long time. We just realized that we have feelings for eachother and surprisingly its really not that awkward. The only thing that i am hesitant about is that hes not like a manly man and he doesnt ahve alot of guy friends. It kind of bothers me because I want him to be a man's man..thats what im attracted to. What shouldi do about this? should i tell him and whats your opinion?
if you started up feelings for him as the way he is now then why does he have to change. you can try and change him but only thing that is going to change is yours guys friendship.

Q: I was friends with this guy since the 2nd grade and this last summer i realized what kind of person he is when he's older, two-faced so my question is do I give him a call to talk about this issue [AGAIN] or ignore him and get on with my life?
ignore him and move on with your life. i went throw this with a ex boyfriend and his whole family. till this day they want to call or im wanting to talk as friends but then talk behind your back orlie etc. its not worth the pain and drama. friends are a dime a dozon

Q: my Winter Formal is coming up and my brother is going with this girl and i dont have a date. my brothers friend isnt going with anyone and i just met her last week and i like her, like she's awsome, but i dont think i can ask her coz it would be kinda akward. i was talking to her about it and she thought i was hinting at her but i wasnt so im asking if i really wanna go with her how do you think i should confront her?
Just go straight for it. " your know how winter formal is coming up and we both dont have dates? i was wondering if you would like to go with me?"

Q: So I moved to Minnesota to live with a family friend while I finish up my senior year. Well the people I live with consist of A mom and her son. Her son is 19 almost 20 and he does absolutely nothing with his life. He dropped out of school his senior year and ever since that hes been wasting away at the computer. He won't find a job because hes never actually faced reality before, hes scared to even talk to a stranger on the phone. His mom doesn' know what to do shes never really forced him to do anything and now its to a point where she can't now if she tried. He throws fits and gets angry at her easily. He doesn't really have any friends anymore and hes beginning to show signs of severe depression by staying up in his room all day long in the dark playing a video game, and he doesn't enjoy things he used to love to do anymore like skateboarding. Hes threaten to kill himself in certain situations and thats another reason why his mom is scared to do something major about it. Hes not able to make it on his own, he won't go out anymore Neither of us just don't know what to do.
to the answer below me. if shes kicks him out and he is already talking about sucide that is going to happen. from what you have wrote he is depressed but i am not a doctor. He does need to see a doctor and their are ones that will come to your house and talk with him. he needs some one he can trust and feels he can trust to talk to. it sounds as if something happened his senior year of high school

Q: My ex broke up with me and so I was upset and decided to just "live on." For the past 2-3 weeks he has been harassing my best friend. Before I sent a message saying "just stop, there is nothing let to say," he was sending me messages that said " you're immature, move one...blah blah blah." I never responded as he continued to blow up my phone. I figured it wasn't worth it. He dumped me out of the blue with no real explanation.

So as he still harasses my friend to this day.....I ran into him at Wal-Mart because he works there. I decided to wear a hoodie because I knew what his hours were and I didn't want to get caught up in it. I left my purse in the car under the seat so he wouldn't recognize it if I had it one me.

Well I did see him at the check out and I threw my hood up because i was convinced after an hour, that he was in the back. I guess he saw me but I decided to split because I didn't want him to walk over to me and start his mental crap. I just want to move on and live my life. But I guess he watched me until I disappeared so my mom said.

He knew it was me before I even took my hood off halfway to the door. To me it was a gesture "There is nothing left to say."

Was it wrong to do that? I'm not a dramatic person when it comes to moving on. I didn't want to get into it and then punch him and break his nose and then get kicked out.

Thanks.
i think you should have stayed where you were unless you were getting ready to walk out and if he approached you, nicely say i have nothing to say to you and please leave me alone.. look him straight in the eyes so he knows you mean it.. as far as your bestfriend.. that probly means he isnt over you and is not sure why he himself broke up with you. calling you immature and stuff i been throw all that with guys. and dont text back dont answer dont anything eventually he will get the picture.. i am sorry you are going threw it good luck

Q: So, I've been dating this girl for a while now. She's really great. I love her and care about her and everything, but I have feelings for this other girl. This other girl is out of this world. We'll call my girlfriend J and the girl I like L ok? ok. Well L knows I like her, and L really likes me. I never see L though. But I get so happy when I talk to her. J pisses me off a lot of the time. We fight over everything. We tried taking a break, but it didn't work out. We missed each other. I care about J, but I have these strong feelings for L also. I don't know what to do. I can't bring myself to end the relationship because I don't want to lose J. J has become one of my best friends, and I don't want to lose that. At the same time, these feelings for L wont go away.
Can someone help me?

(Don't say to sort out your feelings, cause I sorted them up there. I feel confused. And no, who would you rather be with. I get that all the time from my friends.)

Thank you.
don't leave the one you love for the one you like because the one you like for the one they love.
if you tried to take a break from J once and you guys couldnt stay apart that sort out your difference with her. try your hardest to make things work. The only way they will work is if you try and talking to another girl isnt going to make things easier its going to make them harder. Maybe J knows about L.. maybe she has a feeling.. that could be why your fighting. honestly if i was you.. if you really love J i would tell her about L if she doesnt already know and apoligize and tell her you love her and relized that now (wait until you do relize it) and then for L if you pick J than you need to tell L that J is the one you want to be with and love.

good luck

Q: I'm a 17 y/o guy, and have really bad hormones. I'm always horny and never seem to find a way to stop being horny. I masturbate a lot...daily in fact. Watch porn daily as well. I have a hard time with girls because of it. I feel its because i want the feeling of being loved... I'm not close to any girls, so being friends with benefits is not really possible. what should i do? and how should i go about venting? how could i get a friend with benefits?
i am a girl and i have the same problem as you. lol
well friends with benefits wont help you trust me. it will cause drama because girls get to attached and jealous and even guys in the whole friends with benefits crap can get jealous. its not worth the drama.
have sex with someone who totally sucks at it. and you would rather masterbate. i dont think there is really a "cure" for it. i mean eventually you will grow out the phase i been in it since i was 14 and im 17 now. so i hope it happens sometime soon lol. but i havnt had sex in 5 months and i masterbate about ever other day now it used to be 3 or 4 times a day

Q: hey lol]
ok so since about the start of the year my hair has gone really dry and i dont know what has been causing it
my new nickname at school is dog hair guy or somehting like that and its not annoying or anything but the chicks arent really going for it lol but thats not the only reason
i use swartzcopf shampoo and conditioner(two different bottles-on with shampoo one with conditioner) or what ever that brand name is, every morning but it makes no difference help on what it is and how to stop it would be greatly appreciated thanks
Washing your hair every day sometimes can make a person's hair dry. I use panteene pro v. i hope you under stood that. because i know i spelled it wrong lol. good luck

Q: everybody thinks im a techers pet even though i asked to help my teacher everyday and i get awards everyday and i listen in every lesson in school doenst make me a teachers pet does it?
no it does not make you a teachers pet. they are jealous because you are taking the time to ask for help to understand what you are doing. it makes you smart and keep it up.
