how many credits do you need to become a sophomore?
It depends on the University/College. For my University, Ball State, it is 30 credits. I think thats what most of them are. Hope I Helped!
If your talking about High School, as long as your schedual is full and you dont fail classes, you will be a sophomore. Just do well and you have nothing to worry about!

I am currently torn between liking two guys...
One is my best friend. I have known him forever. We have tried dating before, but it just hasn't worked out... we're still best friends and all, but we do go on dates... Whenever we're together, people just assume we're dating.. He's really sweet, and is all boy-next-doorish. He does stuff like this... we went to see a play together, and it was cold, so he let me wear his jacket, then walked me home..
The other guy looks perfect for me, and is actually my cousin's best friend. Both of us have brown hair, and brown eyes and I come up to his shoulder (if any of this matters..) we're apparently "The cutest couple ever" according to some old ladies in the park... He's outgoing and is more rebellish though.. Like.. he stole me chocolate from a vending machine, then because I was tired, he picked me up and brought me back to the picnic ground (family reunion.. he was there with my cousin.. my cousin is a guy, by the way.) Sorry it was so long...
I would probably chose my best friend if I were you because thats where relationships should always start, a friendship! The other guy does sound nice except for the stealing. The best thing for you to do is go with your heart, it will let you know who will make you the happiest. I wish you all the best! Hope I helped!

Theres this guy that i like. I see him usually twice a week. Well the think is his mom, she looked find last week but then when i saw her today she looked kinda pale and yellow. Maybe even a little tierd. I dont think shes worn out or anything but i have a feeling she might be sick... does anyone know any sicknesses that have the symtoms of pale/yellow skin?
thank you for those who help :)
i rate
There are a lot of illnesses with these symptoms. The only way to be for sure if she is sick is to have her go to the doctor. It could be serious! I would talk to your guy friend and explain your concern. I am sure he can tell you whats going on and if she has been under doctor's care. If not, suggest that she go right away. Thats really all you can do my dear. Best Of Luck!

OK please tell me if I am wrong or not. This guy used to be my friend and now I hate him. He became obsessed with me but we NEVER talk anymore. He finds out what everything means in my info and talks to everyone about how hes in love with me. His voice annoys me, hes perverted, and theres just something about him I absolutely hate. Well my grandma died.. and in one of my classes I sit in the front of the room and sleep while all my friends go to the back and talk(including the guy). Today he told my best friend to not talk to me because i was upset and I WASNT! i sit infront of the room every day and now since my grandma died im upset? he doesnt know me.. i love my best friend he has no right to tell her not to talk to me. he doesnt know me and i cant stand him. Am i being wrong to be so angry? whats your opinion?
I dont think this guy is doing anything wrong. On the same token, I dont think you are either. You have a right to not like someone! However, I dont see how it was wrong for him to tell you best frien dyou were upset and not to talk to you. I think he was just showing that he cared. I dont think he meant it so literally. He wasnt trying to be rude or mean in saying it. I would just talk to him and ask him to leave you alone and to stay out of your business. He should respect that. If not, thats when you can get angry. Hope this helps!

i am pregnet like 2 months along, and as we know your not supposed to have sex, well my boyfriend really want it, but i cant give it to him, and i dont want him cheating on me, i was wondering if you can have anal sex while being pregnet?
Everyone did a good job answering this question, but I wanted to add something. IF HE IS GOING TO CHEAT ON YOU BECAUSE YOU DONT WANT TO HAVE SEX, THEN HE ISNT WORTH IT!!!! Your getting ready to have a baby and the last thing you need is a guy who disrespects you and if he would do that then he is disrespectful, so you dont need him. I hope he isnt like that and you just added that because you fear it, not because he has said anything about it. Best Of Luck!

Well, My 5 year olf brother and I walked into the room my 16 year old sister and I share, and we saw her and her boyfriend having sex...
They didnt even know we were there for like two minutes... I was frozen, my feet rooted to the floor, but then finally my brother pulled me away... the problem is... My brother asked me, just as we walked out, "what were they doing there?"
I seriously dont know how to answer him... I mumbled something, but all week he's been persisting, and I need to give him an answer before he asks my parents and gets my sister into trouble... Please help!!!
You should talk to your sister and tell her what happened and about your little brother. Tell her that she has to handle it if she dont want to get into trouble. She is the one who had sex in a house with two kids, she needs to deal with it. Its totally not your responsibility! Just talk to your sister. Hope I Helped!

Hmm well maybe I should start like this. I met this girl like 5-6 months ago and she was pretty cool so we became pretty good friends. Now after being with her at school and seeing her here and there after school, I finally figured out I like her a lot. She had a bf though, but he treated her like crap, he wouldnt ever talk to her or do things with her etc. So now she broke up with him and I'm not sure if she likes me or not but I dont want to ask her out because if she doesnt like me our friendship will suffer, and plus I dont usually like to ask people out.
You sound really sweet! So, here is what I think. Yes, I think she will like you and I think you should ask her out. But, there is something else that I think I should advise you on. I dont know specifics on her ex relationship, but I think you should give it some time before you ask her out. I would say like a month or so after they break up. The reason I say this is because it isnt really fair to date someone right after they get out of a relationship. This is because they need time to get over the old relationship and etc. If they rush into anything too fast then they may make decisions for all the wrong reasons. So, I would just wait for a while before pursuing this. Now, when you are ready to date her and you KNOW she is ready, there are a few things you can do to find out if she likes you. One, and prolly the best thing, is to ask her friend(s). They will know if she likes you and if they dont, they can find out. TRUST ME! Two, just ask her. Sit her down and talk to her. Find out how she feels and if she likes you or not. Most girls are not too shy when it comes to these things. Just do whatever is best for you! Hope I Helped And Good Luck!

Me and boyfriend have been going out for 5 months and 17 days. I guarantee im in love with him and hes the ONE. Im only 13 (goin on 14) but i honestly love him. The only problem is... my parents. They think im too young to be in love and everybody else says that too! Its sooo annoying and just wish they knew how me AND my boyfriend felt about each other. Thanks bunches...
Everyone tells you that your too young for a reason hun, you are! You are only 13 and your no where near mature enough yet to truely LOVE someone. You are young and still have plenty of growing up to do. My advice is to just respect your parents. Talk to them and tell them how you feel, but respect their wishes. They really do have your best interest at heart! They know what is best for you. Just give it time and you will feel better if you have a decent relationship with your parents. Hope I Helped!

My guy friend and his girlfriend broke up, and he still likes her alot. She likes him still too but she doesnt want to get hurt and they will be going to different schools. My guy friend asked me to help him get through this because I'm the only one he can trust. I want to help him in any way I can because I want to be close with him. What should I say to him to make him feel better? Thank you so much!
Honey, the only thing you can really do is be there for him. Let him know that your always there for him and he can always talk to you. Just knowing that you are there for him, will help him more than you know. Just be a good friend and a shoulder to cry on. Listen to him and try not to be too opinionated about it. Just listen! You will be surprised how close you two will become. I am glad your so kind hearted and want to help him. Hope I Helped!

My boyfriend & I broke up over a month ago. We haven't talked alot and he has moved on already with a new girlfriend. I've still been trying to get myself back together over the breakup and I have started flirting with guys & getting back in the game. I'm just still hung up on my ex and it feels horrible to know he moved on so quickly. How am I supposed to let him go and finally be able to let myself be happy with my life? He was the only serious boyfriend I had & we were together over a year. I really need to move on.
Moving on is a really tough process. It seems like your doing everything right. You flirting again and everything. I think you are starting to get over him, your just not fully there yet. I think you are well on your way. I think that maybe you should ask a guy that you like out and try to maybe step things up. This could help. I am sorry to hear that he moved on so quickly, however, just to tell you, he isnt being fair to him new girlfriend since he went out with her so soon because there is almost no way that he is completely over you. So, it prolly wont work with then cause he did that! Haha, just thought that might help to hear that. Hope things get better. Just get back out there. Best Of Luck!

ok so i like this boy, right? and he is really hot and sweet and i talk to him sometimes in spanish class. i really wish i could speed up the process of becoming pals...friends...and hopefully bf/gf. I dont want to seem to desperate or weird during this process. Do you have any tips to catch his eye or say to him?
thanks
I dont think that you should do anything too special. You want the guy to like you for who you are and not because you can impress him. Just be yourself. Try talking to him more. Maybe even ask a friend of yours to find out if he likes you without telling the guy that you like him. Just try stepping things up a notch amd talking to him more. If he likes you, he should tell if once you talk to him more. Good Luck!

Around what time should you take a pregnacy test? Days before your period? after your period? or at any time?
Most test are designed to detect pregnancy about 5 days after your missed period. There are some that can do it earlier though. Check the label! Best Of Luck!

29 Male
I met Mary, 20 years old, about 10 months ago. We hit off and started dating. It’s been about 7 months now. Her family life is a complete mess. Her parents divorced a little over a year ago. Now, her mom hardly returns her calls and her dad quickly got re-married and now lives about 2 1/2 hours north of her. With his new life he rarely makes time for her either.
After dating for about 4 months, she visited her doctor. Her stomach was bothering her. The doctor discovered a cyst. She had tests done and that day she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer – stage one.
She refused to have a hysterectomy and started chemotherapy. After 3 weeks of chemo, its stage 3. The doctor tells her it’s terminal. She tells her dad. He asks her not tell anyone on his side of the family. Meanwhile, he never calls her to ask how she’s doing. As far as her mom goes – she hasn’t told her yet.
Three weeks ago, Mary’s doctor said she needed to stop chemo because her organs were swelling as a result of her diabetes. At this point the cancer had stopped spreading. Last week she blew off her doctor’s appointment because she needed to work to make rent. She was scheduled to restart chemo. Mary works full-time on her feet. She smokes and has a glass of wine now and then. None of which her doctor agrees with. So as a result, the cancer has started to spread again.
Watching her suffer has taken a lot out of me. More than half the week she sleeps at my apartment. And on cue in the evening her pains skyrocket. Lying in bed she twists and shakes until she passes out. All I can do is hold her. She wakes up and the pain goes another round or two until she finally falls asleep.
I don’t agree with how she’s handling her sickness. Missing doctor appointments, smoking, and drinking. Just the other day she was planning to go to the beach with friends. I told her she’s not suppose to go in the sun while on chemo; that’s when I found out she missed her doctors appointment earlier that day.
I want to be there for her, but as a friend. I do all I can so that she feels like a beautiful woman. But I might just have to just walk away. I feel like I need to do something to get her to take this illness more seriously. I’m frustrated.
What do you think?
I think that you should talk to Mary. Explain to her how frustrated you are and that you want to be there for her but that you dont know how much longer you can go on with the things being as they are right now. I would also encourage you to convince Mary to call and tell her mom. She needs to know. I think it is really inportant for the mom to know. Talking is really all that you can do at this point. But, please, dont give up. Continue to try to be supportive and loving to Mary. She needs you more than you will ever know. My grandmother died of ovarian cancer even after having the historectomym and what helped her before she passed away was being with family. This is very serious and I hope you can make Mary realize that. Best Of Luck!

i was at my bf's and he fingered me, since then ive had ALOT of discharge, is this a sign of some sort of sickness or is this normal for people who just got fingered?
Discharge in and of itself is normal. I know that it isnt fun but there isnt much you can do about it, haha. I would recommend that you buy panty liners if you discharge is too bad. I honestly dont think this has anything to do with your boyfriend fingering you other than you would be more lose down there. Hope this helps! It is really bothers you, you can always see a gyno.

Wow sweetie! First off, before I give you any advice, I just want you to know that you can IM me anytime on AIM (CutiePieFrogBaby), Yahoo (CorysLilTopanga), or MSN (BSUCardinalChic04@hotmail.com). I will be there to talk if you ever need anything. You can also use my e-mail (HMKnarian@bsu.edu) if you need to. I dont mind if you vent or whatever. I know what it is like to not feel loved and its not a fun feeling so I want you to know that I am there for you. I will be a friend, or whatever you need. You can call me if you need to, but if you want to then ask me on AIM or something b/c I dont want it posted here. Ok? I hope that in adn of itself helps. I am here for you and I care babe! Ok, now on to the advice. About your parents. Wow! Normally, I would say to talk to your parents but you said that you cant do that so, I guess that what I would do is talk to another adult. Someone at yoru church would be good, or if you dont go to church then maybe a friend's mom, or a teacher, or your school councilor. Explain to this person how you feel and they can more than likely help you or refer you to someone who can. Either way babe, I think you need professional advice on your parents. Now, about your friends. I am sorry to hear that you dont feel realy close to any friends or anyone in your life for that matter. I would advise that you talk to these friends of yours and tell them how you feel and tell them that you woould like to work on having a closer relationship. If this dosent work, try making new friends. School and Church are great places to do this! I am sure you will find someone. But, remember I will always be willing to talk with you and help you in any way that I can hun, ok? Now, about the cutting yourself and you considering suicide. I am so sorry to hear that your depression has come to this. I think that talking to an adult (same as with your parent issue) should help to resolve these feelings of depression. I am sure they can help you! Please talk to some dear. You are WAY too young to have to go through all of this. I hope I have helped and remember that I am always willing to talk! Hope you feel better hun!

Yesterday, I was skipping inside of my house and I passed the restrooms and my dad was in there peeing. He forgot to close the doors! He saw me and stopped peeing and i guess was kinda nervous. I didn't see anything because I was skipping and my face was turned the other way. It's kinda weird between us now. What can i do?
Wow! This is a very tough situation. I think that the best thing to do is to just talk ot your father. Explain to him that you dont want things to be weird between you guys and that you didnt see anything. This should help! He probably just feels weird because he thinks you saw something and if your young he might think its the first time you have seen a guy's genital area, even though you didnt really see anything, he just thinks you did. So, once again, talk to him! I hope that from now on he will close the door, lol. Best Of Luck!

My boyfriend was been depressed latly so i have been wanting to do something nice for him..well im only 15 and he's 17 so getting places isnt a problem since he can drive...well i donno what to do for him..i was thinking of getting him a new watch or makeing him dinner or takeing him out to dinner but im not sure. does anyone have any idea's or suggestions..or maybe share something you have done nice for your BF??

I think that all of your ideas sound very nice! I am sure he would like all of them and it would make him feel better. I think that something simple will do the trick. Something that isnt too expensive for you and that really shows you care. Its really nice of you to think of him and worry about him and want him to feel better. Your a very sweet girlfriend. I am sure he will feel a lot better! Best Of Luck!

Okay, so there's this guy that's been my really good friend for a long time. Last October, I got a crush on him. Then in December, he had a girlfriend, but he told me that he'd liked me since October too, and a week later, he broke up with his girlfriend. But he didn't ask me out until a month later, because he 'didn't want people to think he liked me when he liked his other girlfriend'. So we were 'sort of' going out for about a month, but we never actually went on a date. He asked me out to a carnival, but then he ditched me. Then...worst of all...the school dance. He danced with me once, and then went back to his ex girlfriend and was dancing with HER for the rest of the time. I talked to him and he told me he didn't like me anymore, but we decided to stay friends anyways.
Now, about 3 months later...I think I still like him, but I'm not sure. We're still very good friends. I want him to be happy with whatever girl he goes out with, but I'm jealous at the same time. My heart jumps when I had to kiss him on the cheek for this school performance..and when I fell asleep on his shoulder in the movie theater (with other friends there)...and I feel crap when I see the girl he likes sleeping on his other shoulder, or sitting super close to him. What should I do? How do I get over him? Please help!
I am really sorry to hear this. We have all been there! I think it is time for you to move on and try to find someone else. I know this will be hard, but I think it is for the best. This guy obviously likes his ex-girlfriend still and from what you have said, I dont think that is going to change. I am sorry! This is a very hard thing to go through. Just try to find some other guy to like or maybe just hang out with your friends a lot more. Friends can always help you to feel better. Best Of Luck and if you ever need to talk just IM me. My screename is on my Advice Column. Hope I helped! Sorry once again sweetie!

i like a kid, and like he is mean to me, and my friends asked him why he didnt like me, and he said cuz i'm stupid. but i'm not, i just say a lot of random stuff.but like everytime he talks to me hes all smiley, but the problem is that two other girls in my grade flirt with him. so i feel like i have a competition and then my other friend likes him, and she is closer with him, and i really want to go out with him.
Not only does this guy not like you hun, but your just going to get hurt in the end. Try to find someone else! Besides, why would you want to be with someone who is mean to you and calls you stupid. Just forget about him and find a new guy. Best Of Luck!

Hey...I'm 15/f and I've had my period for a year and about 4 months now...I'm worried because I didn't have it for March...I haven't had sex but what if there was sperm on the toilet seat or something? Someone please give me hope! I RATE!
Everyone did a great job at answering this, but I just wanted to add something. Sperm cant live on a toilet hardly at all. You cant be pregnant if you didnt have sex of any kind. Thanks! Hope I helped!
