i really like him and i think he might like me. he knows that i like him but dont you think he would tell me?
Are you game enough to ask him to go steady.
Try to read his body language. You try some of your own sweet moves on him see if he responds.
Not every crush is a successful nab. Dissappointment is a part of life so be prepared.
Be strong. Good luck

What're the pros of waking up early on weekends ?
today I had the day off from school, and since I'm so used to the schedule of school, I usually wake up at 9. my boyfriend told me to wake up him when I did, so I kept calling him, but he didn't wake up until 12.
we got into an argument and he said "oh, you're not doing anything today as it is, why wake up early?"
so, although you're not doing much that day, what're the pros of waking up early despite plans or not?
I wake up between 3:00am -5:30am I love it everones asleep I can do what ever I want. Tidy up, do some laundry, paint Art, surf the net, watch Fox T.V. Sometimes I multi task these things.
Getting up early I am living the day I welcome the dawn most every day every sunrise is different
sometimes I take a photo of the sun rise.

He is probably physicly tired and needs more sleep than you do. In my late teens early 20's I sleept in till 11:00am or later I would sleep like a log now I am a very light sleeper. No doubt a behaviour I learned over the years of responsibility's as a wife & Mother You cannot sleep in with children. Look forward to the time your kids wake their sleep-in dad. Have the video ready LOL. They can't get into any trouble sleeping enjoy it gives you time to dress up make your self look stunning 3 hours up your sleeve.

I really need some help here I'm in over my head.
My parents have been divorced since I was twelve and I haven't heard from my mom since...so I live with just my single dad. He never even dated or anything after that so it's just him. When my parents lived together my mom did all the cleaning....mind you she didn't clean often, so I was always used to a messy house...but she DID clean....my dad never lifted a finger except when his computer desk got too cluttered (my dad's a major computer geek).
See my dad is about as clean as a stereotypical college boy.
So now when my mom left I was forced to take over the chores....
WHEN I SAY FORCED....I do not mean what most people mean...NO my dad did not give me chores, he never told me to do anything. What I mean by forced is that if I chose not to do the dishes, my entire family was eating out of plastic plates with plastic forks and plastic cups. No joke. If I chose not to take out the trash they would go for the next best thing (on the floor next to the trash can). If I chose not to vacuum give it a few days and you can't tell what color carpet we have.
I even had to do my dad's laundry for 3 years. I finally got him to do it himself because I went on "strike" and guess what he did?? He spent 3 weeks simply buying new packs of underwear because he didn't want to wash his dirty ones!! Who does that?? He only started washing it because he realized he'd be spending $20 a week on underwear for the rest of his life.
However, the strike stuff doesn't work for the rest of the house. He's perfectly content to live in the slop so long as his computer desk is clear. And what makes the problem worse is that I have a 16 year old brother (BIG red flag), and my sister spends all her time in her room to avoid the mess instead of helping clean it up..
In general my family's motto is "I didn't make the mess, why should I clean it?" which HELLO someone had to make the mess and it sure as heck wasn't me so it had to be one of you three.
So I'm sick and tired of cleaning up after them. Somehow they mess up something new every day...and the day to day stuff like trash and dishes they find a way to make it as gross as possible...these people don't rinse their dishes when they put them in the sink...they just throw them in there leftover food and all....it's sick.
I'm 19 and I should be worried about how much fun I'm going to have when I move out not what is my family going to be living in once I leave?
I need some ideas of how to get them to pitch in.
I've tried everything I can think of.
**Neon signs on the fridge, washer, tv, front door telling them to clean up their mess....somehow they have the brain power to move the sign out of their way but can't figure out how to read it.
**Simply not cleaning and seeing if they notice....they didn't.
**Moving their laundry baskets right in their closets....they still find a way to miss.
**I've even tried taping a garbage bag over the sink to try and make them make less dirty dishes....they just put the dishes on the counter next to the sink.
Please help I've been stuck in a pigsty for 7 years now I'm at my breaking point.
Young Lady I can TOTALLY understand your story,
I have 3 sons & a husband if I don't do it it dosn't get done. yes I get the it's not my mess thing too. Oh and don't get me started on the laundry. So... what to do? do some home work and then hold a family meeting. LAY DOWN THE LAW You are not the sole responsible carer for the house work. everyone should pull there weight do their share. Your not the maid Yoyr a sister and a daughter Not the adult. Your Dad needs to have the computer taken off him his addition is starving the homelife of his engagements & obligations to parent he's not a boarder. Tell him to get off his butt & help organise the kids to do some chores too.
O.K. so It's not thier mess maybe... but they still live in this house. You might want to make up a chore chart and organise them to participate in tidying the table setting the table washing dishes take out bin should be a guys job Tell them it's not working like this You don't want to live in a sty the rewards are a cleaner happier home. Don't be scared to lay down some rules and set boundries they obviously need it from someone & Dad isn't going to do it. so shake him up too. Good luck sweetie.

I'm 19 and i still don't have my license or permit iv'e gone to the DMV twice and failed the test both times i feel really stupid seeing as most kids my age have their licenses and are able to drive themselves am i over reacting in thinking i'm stupid just because i don't have my permit and i'm 19?
This has been bothering for quite a while
i feel embarrassed
I have had my Learners for 42 yrs seriously. You will find that no one passes the first or second test o.k. imagine your ego if you did pass first time. I suggest you have more lessons get the skills required to pass the test you'll have your liecence soon enough. Keep trying you'll get there.

I'm making a photo album for my boyfriend before he goes on holiday. I've decorated the front with our date on it and 'i love you' down the side. I also made a heart out of a post it note and wrote cute things on bits of paper and folded them up and tucked them inside. I've got some quotes that I can put around the pictures, but has anyone got any other ideas for it? :]
try some pressed flowers here & there, ribbon/bows, cute buttons & collage

my name iS Rachel and I go to a mental health center 5 days a week monday through Friday but anyways here is my problem they let us smoke at the center and there are a bunch of people that smoke and I don't mind giving out ciggerates once in a while and everybody gives them back to me except this one girl who lives in a group home and I understand that she only gets $31.00 a month out of her social sucurity check but it never fails she always asks me for at least 6 or 7 smokes a day and I know she can't afford to pay me back should I mention it to a staff member or would I be a snitch?
you said: should I mention it to a staff member or would I be a snitch?
NO.... You tell her yourself she has to buy her own smokes You can't afford to pay for her habit too. You have to be strong and say NO MORE sorry... buy your own or give up. Her wage is not your problem. why should you support her habit Has she ever been to your house for Xmas?
She's out of line.

I am a female minor of 16 who had an online relationship with a man 8 years my senior behind my family's back. I had done this once before but with a different individual and i no longer have contact with the first person. I met him at a hotel room 3 times and although we didn't have sexual intercourse i thought i was pregnant somehow and my period was late with strong feelings of nausea. I told my mom all of this and although she was terribly devastated she proceeded to take me to the doctor and tests were done. I am not pregnant and have no STI's, and now my mother and father and i don't know what to do. Only they and the man i was involved with know. I want things to go back to how they were before they knew, but i understand that it isn't that simple. I would very much appreciate if someone could offer me solid advice on what I should do now. I want to earn back their trust if i can and help them feel better and more relaxed. I am ashamed of my action but i want to do something, anything to help them feel better. I have not contacted the man since telling my father, whom i told a week after my mother. I believe that the man was a good man but I don't want to contact him any time soon, at the very least until i am out of college, so like 6 to 10 years from now. I believe my parents will press charges against him. please and thank you so much.
Your parents should press charges... A 24 yr old man intermate with a 16 yr old girl, clearly you were naeivene & trusting. However, He knew better end of story. If he was serious about you why was he deceptive & secretive. instead of being open & honest? Because he knew better. Learn from this the Feds can intercept cyber preditors so if you want to press charges you have all the evidence in the hard drive. Good luck

I have a nine month old daughter and i'm 19. I am married to the father of my baby. When we got married 11 months ago i told him that i wouldn't marry him unless he stopped smoking weed. since then, he has stopped and has done many good things, such as get his GED and be a great dad and show a desire to go to school. recently however he told me that he didn't see a problem with it, and that it wouldn't hurt anything if he smoked weed 4 times a month. I told him that it would hurt me, and he said well if you don't love me enough to let me do it then i guess we can't be together. I need to know if I am being too strict and i just need to deal with it, or if I do need to leave him. Please help me.
Smoking Weed is not appropriate. If it's upsetting you then that's your validation. You cannot bring up child/children in this environment. If you love him you'll let him do it LOL. How selfish is he. I called the cops on my son that fixed him. My home, my rules. I do the cleaning and rearing of 3 sons I have a voice. Being stoned is irresponsible, self indugence & a finacial burden not to mention ILLEGAL. 4 times a month that's the start of an addition that could turn daily. You put him straight you don't have to put up with his destructive selfish choices.
your not being too strict your taking responsibilty for yourselves. he has to take the same responsibility. He's not a delinquent. Good luck.

Okay so I was in an amazing relationship with this guy Kris and it was total bliss but at the end of the summer I kinda broke it off since I felt like it was just a summer fling or whatever. Anyways both of us had the mutual feeling of sadness and what not. So today after rowing practice I was walking to Starbucks with all my friends and I saw him walking up the street with some chick. For some weird reason I kinda felt angered by it and they suddenly stopped walking as my friends and I were about to pass them. They said their good byes (I think) and she continued to walk past us giving me like a bitch stare or whatever and Kris went inside our school's pool area but before that we passed him and he stared at me for like 5 seconds then continued walking. I was like WTF. I mean I thought I was over him... guess not? Maybe that's why I kinda felt angered by it? This by the way would be the second time I saw him hanging out with this chick and mind you this chick is ugly as fuck.
you clearly made a decicion to end the relationship in Summer ( A fling) he was good enough to accept his fate of being dumped. so he is a romantic and he found someone new to give his affection too. The fact she is not as attractive as you tells me he is not shallow but genuine. You let him go and he didn't come back suggest he wasn't too in love to chase you. let it go. Jeolousy is a destructive force Step up and give him your blessings. His new squeeze isn't going to surrender him so move on.

I REALLY want to practice my acting skills, but i don't know how. Do i just sit in my room and act or what? I don't have a script or monologue to do or anything. The only thing i do is practice an emotion in my room, but that's it and it gets BORING! What can i do by myself?
PS. I have looked all around the internet, but can't seem to find anything. Try and answer ASAP if you can thnx!
Have you got a video camera? try getting some footage of your skills. If your stuck for a script try revising a film you are already word for word familar with the script. Do you try soaps or film or broadway?

ive been taking the low ogestrel 28 birth control pill for at least 9 months
ive usually been pretty good about taking at the same time of day (within the hour or two)
i had protected sex on september 12
and forgot a pill last friday
so i took fridays pill and saturdays pill that saturday morning
i started the green pills that sunday (so the day after the saturday i took two pills)
i usually get my period 2 days after starting the green pills but it hasnt come yet
(today being the third day)
chances of being pregnant?
or could it just be that i took two pills so soon?
I believe if you mess up the pill sequence your body gets confused & starts bleeding when you shouldn't and not bleeding when you should. I had this happen offen because I forgot the pill it was hard to keep track I needed a calander & marked what I did where I went wrong. I was having 2 weak periods a month. providing there was no microscopic whole in the protection you used my guess it the missed pill Talk to your Dr about what to do in that case. I think from memory your supose to not take the one you missed and continue the packet as perscibed.

hi well i'm 17 and my boyfriend is 16, and we're going to homecoming this saturday. it's my senior year and last homecoming, so keep in mind i'd like it to be really special :) he lives right down the road from the school, and theres a little park not 200 ft from his house, with some really pretty spots such as a manicured field and a nice wooden bridge over a stream. i want to take some hc pictures there. leading up to my question...after homecoming, i want to do something really romantic, such as laying in the grass in our formal-wear (haha) looking at the stars, or something. (he's like me, so i know he'd enjoy something like this) does anyone have any ideas as to what else we could do? preferably outside - parents inside ruin the mood lol. and it's still warm here at night, so weather isn't a problem. any and all ideas would be greatly appriciated! thanks :)
are going to use a blanket to lay on you don't want grass stains on your outfits. I dont't want you to set your dress alight o.k. so take extra care.
May I suggest you place a comfy blanket or 2 cover with a large plain white bed sheet. place some candles in white sanwhich paper bag 1 per bag you can colour them if you wish with water colours lemon is warming. and place them around the outside of your circle this gives off a romantic glow in the atmosphere. place some tinsil around the bottom on the paper bag sprinkle tinsil dust around the sheet to give a festive atmosphere. be natural you'll get some great photos. Get a friend to take the photos. have a lovely Home coming sweetie

Okay so I really want to be a size 2 (or at most a 5) by New Years! I am a size 9 right now. The problem is I hurt my knee and I cant do a lot of exercises like running. I cant really do anything that requires heavy exercise on my knee. So my question is... what exercises will truly help me lose INCHES on my waist, thighs and stomach. Please give some good answers, not lame ones. THanks
Watch your diet Try juicing friut and vegies
you can get good reciepes on google.
Try swimming I saw a woman swimming in my unit pool who had a fantastic figure & I mention so. my friend she said she used to be huge size 18 I said how did she slim down she replied she stated swimming in the Lap Pool. Low impact... should be ok on your knee and aqua arobics sit up in water is easier than on land make some exersises up. good luck

Ok so im 16 almost 17 in a day or two
I have a girlfriend who has repeately broke up with me like 11 times in the year and 2 months weve been dating. She breaks up with for now reason like shell say she needs space or she says is mad at me for no reason, but then she usually comes back in less than a week and apolizes, even though I tell her she doesnt have to apologize. She did again with stupid reasons and she was acting unlike I thought she would because she is my best friend and she just wasnt talking so I asked her why and she said because she wanted to give me another shot then she didnt know if she could do it and then I asked why she even said anything she said "I Love You" then I said whats the problem then she thinks I need to be the leader in relationship and doesnt believe I can change.
Other things you should know are she is 16 also and when I say, say I mean she sent it in an email and Ive set up times for us to talk and boy can she talk an hour solid so I dont understand why we cant communicate.
She is breaking up on average every 6 weeks. There is something in the relationship she is stuggling with. 16 is young to take on a relationship, it's more complicated than just kissing and hanging out together. She ask you to lead them LEAD. she wants to be under your wing it's safe there. When she is confident enough to step out and be her person she will take charge & deal with it. her dream is a subconcience telling her she will loose you if she continues to be irrational. So if you reassure her she should calm down on her nurotic behaviour. if she still is insecure cuddle her & take away her fears. Ask her regularly Is she is happy. She dosn't have to beat her self up if you are sincerely in love with her. just reassure her. Visa - versa

I have a lot of designer bags that get dirty over time and I really don't want to risk the chance of trying to clean them myself, so I'm wondering if anyone knows where I should take them to get them cleaned? Do some department stores do that? Any businuesses?
Thanks so much
Try the dry cleaners, I am thinking about MR. MINUTE a shoe repair shop in Australia they sell all kinds of leather treatments & polishes hey they fix leather shoes, bags are leather too. I have a Super Stain Remover book written by Jack Cassimatis I just found the Cleaning Leather Bags index try a test on a hidden part of the bag to see how it goes first here's what it says to do.
LEATHER
Use Saddle soap as directed on the packet.
MESH
sprinle white vinigar onto a soft cloth and rub well all over the bag.Next sprinke some amonia onto another cloth and again rub well all over the bag. Then clean wipe over the bag with a clean cloth dipped in clean water and let dry. When dry buff well with a clean dry cloth.
STRAW (Natural)
Beat the white of 1 egg till stiff then, while beating gradually add the juice of 1 medium lemon and 1 teaspoon of epsom salt or cooking salt. Using a toothebrush, brush the mixture all over the bag, wipe over with damp cloth to even out the coating leave in sun to dry.
STRAW (coloured)
Treat same as straw (natural)instead of lemon juice use water.
Hope this saves you money good luck

OK,So Im just going to get straight to the point.
One of my "friends" doesnt want to be friends anymore...for some reason.
The problem seemed like it all started on Facebook,but even before that,he's been acting "distant"...Hardly saying anything to me,pretty much acting like I dont exist.
Im not sure how I feel about this. I was sad at first,but now...Im getting really pissed off.
Why? Because one,I sent him a message,and he actually didnt even reply and he removed me from his "friends list",and two...This kind of crap happens ALL the time. Which is why I like putting up a wall and keep people out,cause I always get hurt like this.
So what should I do? Should I ACT like I dont care? Or should I just act like it didnt happen?
I really dont know what to do!!!
Ask him to validate his stand off behaviour. It may be your behaviour he has out grown. You may have a behaviour your completely unaware of that he has withered too. People change maybe he has issues he doesn't want to express and just needs time out. The only way to be sure is to face up & fess up over coffee. Then you can respond accordingly to the results. if it isn't him or you it's someone else (3rd party) let him understand he is hurting your feelings. Remeber your friends change through out your life maybe it's time for you both to move on. Discussing it with resolve the unknown. good luck Don't put on an act be very real.

hello!
um ok i used to have this huge crush on this guy but he had a gf and she hated me so much anyways that was 2 years ago (elementary grade 7 him and her grad8) now im in high school with them and evr since shes been giving me terrible looks and she even gives my sister terrible looks (who which ,there would be no way she would know her) and he actually had the nerve to smile at me and now she thinks there is something going on between us but i cant even look at him i can NOT stand them ( i have no feelings for him) and i dont look at him at all but i can see he IS looking at me ( sorry if confusing!!) well anything you do will help!!
Hello Miss,
Find a way to disfuse The evil eye (GF's) insecurities with diplomacy & a touch of professionalism you should be sucessfull in solving her creepy behaviour. Do not swear or loose your temper if it's to hot you'll talk another time when she's calmed down. just exuse yourself and leave quietly. remeber she's the one with the problem not you. O.K. Ask her if you can talk in private (Be sweet & non offensive)in the play ground common grounds, Soften her up get her on side first by saying something nice about her like: say her name.... your hair, skin, is so shiny today it's beautiful. say her name when you can, people love to hear there own name said to them. Proceed to discuss your concerns that she not fear you. You have no interest in her partner, NOW here is your TRUMP CARD. Say something like... infact I like a guy in another school make up a name David Brand put his Initials on your arm and then show her see I like D.B. little white lies don't hurt anyone. if she or you feels her partner (Your EX)is oggling you she should take it up with him. Thank her for her time & leave it at that. If she wants to cuddle to seal the deal thats even better. Remeber to keep cool and in control of the conversation if she blows off let her tell her to calm down then have your say. I am pretty sure she'll come round your way. Wear mascara to make your eyes pretty. Good luck Sweetie.

What does it mean when a guy says "I'll have to think about it for awhile." a couple days ago I'll told my best friend I had a crush on him. and that's what he told me. I'll see him monday, but should I ask or just wait it out? Bonus, he just turned 18 yesterday(he's a senior in high school). I know there would be issues: maturity, religion, legal, ect! But it's not like were gonna have sex! I've even knowen people my age have a relationship with a 18 year old. All I would like to know is: What does he mean by "I'll have to think about it for awhile." and we there be any chance for a relationship? I mean get along so well, it's ubsurd (same relationship past, interest, ect.).
-Gabriella
He's too old for you he is ready to engage in sexual encounters & your still under age. there are laws it's called pedophile, statatory rape. Who knows if he is capable of violence your still a child your protection is paramount. if he is the best bloke on campus he is comendable he took the time to consider his place in all this. seriously try and find someone your own age between 15 & 18 there is a big difference between leaning for the first time verses been there done that. So don't worry about what other people do. You are not them you are you. your decisions are your own empowerment.
