about

Hey! First off, i'm going to start by saying I came here on this site to give people advice. Some people actually don't know the real meaning of advice. They think its the answers they want to hear. But i'm not here for that. I'll give you advice, and it might be something you don't want to hear. But deal with it! You may take my advice or not, its completely up to you and you are not gaurnteed a correct solution.

Ok so now that's clear, I'll talk to you more about myself. Hence the username... I play volleyball. It is my passion and basically my life since I've played for about 7 years. Most of my friends say i'm 50/50 tomboy and girly girl. I LOVE sports!! I play volleyball all year round, and then I go to the park during free times to play some soccer, football, hockey, basketball or baseball with my friends. But then again, I could be inside trying on my new Sephora makeup i'd just gotten, or reading the latest Seventeen magazine or even arranging my clothes for school tomorrow.

You can ask me just about anything and i'll be happy to answer it. You can count on a full and detailed answer.

Oh and another thing... I love getting feedback! Even if its a negative comment. It tells me what I need to work on or even what I did correct.

BODY EXERCISES AND WORKOUTS! my way or the highway

advice

My friends are constantly copying me i dont know how anyone can take it as a compliment its exstremly annoying! If i get a new top everyone will ask where i got it from and then ..guess what..the next week they have got it or something similar. The worst thing is when they get complimented on it by someone else, sooooooo annoying.. when you got it first!! Everyone probably thinks i copy them aaaargh?
How do i stop them from copying me?
without telling them or hinting iv already tryed it!

you can try telling white lies. They are not lies! telling a lie is something you do that gets you out of trouble. White lies is if you want change. So in this case, you want to change the fact of copying. so you tell a white lie. example=

"where did you get that top?" (say you got it at American Eagle)
"oh I got it at JC Penney"

and when they go there to look for it, it won't be there. Or you can say like "oh I got it in Europe"

What i'm starting to think right now is that you're not original enough... you need to be unique so that you don't look alike with others. Try buying a 'make your own jewlery' kit and beads and then you can make your own jewlery so they can't buy it. Or try buying different designer clothes (that normal people in your area wounldn't think of) and try mix and matching.

My friend is really starting to get to me now iv been putting up with the constant "acts" (being fake all the time) and the "fuck off just dont talk to me im not in the mood" ( probably because my hair didnt straighten probably this morning)
If i say one wrong thing towards her she gets in a big stress and will ignore me all day.. then later on in the day if i ask whats wrong she will twist it around and put the blame on me, making me feel really bad and i end up apologising this is the only way she will talk to me again. We have so much in coman and share everything togeather and tell each other everything! Yet after all of this shes is still exstremly popular with everyone especially the boys she acts so fake towards them but they think she is sooo hot, its so annoying when im just normal around the boys and just being myself i dont get anything back in return other than an insult or nasty glare half of the time!??, every thinks so much of her and no one can ever understand when i tell them about it?? I just dont no what to do about it anymore iv tryed almost everything i can think of!?!?

ok calm down... I realize that you do not want to lose this friedship with her. So have a talk with her. Sit her down somewhere and ask her why she is under so much stress lately. Friends need to be very good listeners. So listen to what she has to say. If she is confused by what you are asking her. Give her some examples of what has happened. Just let your heart do all the talking and listen to her. Then talk to her on ways to solve it.

As for the guys part... you're doing the right thing. I actually have a friend who is so fake and always flirts with the guys... and she has had like 20 boyfriends already. And look at me, i'm normal with the guys... suure i flirt once in a while but thats only with 1 guy. she is like that with so many different guys. Don't be like your friend. Don't start acting all fake and trying to get boys. They will come. It just takes time. Don't think of the present time... think of the future. So in other words- don't think about how many dates she gets now... just think about how many dates she will NOT get in a few years because she will start to be known as a slut or whore. Then all of the guys will start coming towards you.

I hope I helped!

Well my so called close friend lets call her lena i trusted her i told her everything ! ok well me and her we used to bitch about this girl wrong i know and i regret it so dont tell me im a mean bitch or anything anyways well lena went and told her that i said this and that about her and the girl lets call her nina well nina told me off when lena backstabbed her aswell but i didnt say anything anyways nina told me off and started screaming at me and she told me our friendship was over and i just want everything back to normal if i could go back in time i would but i can't i've learnt my lesson all i want is everything to back to the way it was but i don't know what to say or do and now lena is closer to nina now and i miss lena so muchh and i also miss nina i don't know who to trust anymore

you're like a miniture version of my other friends who are sort of having a fight like that. anyways...

If you truely, deeply feel bad about this you need to confront lena and nina about it. Find somewhere, sometime that you can talk to them alone. Say "Hey, I know you're mad at me but just listen to what I have to say. You might ignore me, thats ok, but just promise me that you'll listen to me" then just let out your feelings to both of them.

also, from experience, I woulnd't talk to both of them at the same time because they can gang on you and hurt you. If they refuse to listen... like listening to music, or walking away... then write them a note and stick it in their locker at school (make sure it's the right one... I almost did that once!) or write them an email, or send an IM message, text message or even leave their cell phones/home phones a voicemail.

Anyway you can, try to get them to listen to you. Don't feel bad if they don't respond... all it takes to mend this friendship is for them to listen to you. Once they hear you out, give them some time to think about it. Don't expect them to call you right after you explain everything to them. Wait a while ( usually 2-7 days) and then call/text/email them again.

You really need to let your heart do all the talking. Don't write down all of the lines you're going to say to them... because that's just coming from your head. You need to tell them what is coming from your heart. Showing emotions and body language is a bonus. Crossing your arms= bad. It shows that you don't really give a shit about the friendship. having your hands on your head= good. It shows that you are having a headache because you are so sorry. laughing= bad. Also, it shows that you are not serious. Crying= good. It shows how much you care about them.

I wish you luck!

So i've been strugglin drug use i was a big crack head but i havent smoked in 24 days. Well the reason i was doing that stuff was b/c my dad is kinda a asshole. well i told my friend and she was concerned and i promised her i wouldnt smoke her anymore. Anyway lately i've been gettin pain killas mostly OCs from my bf Dwight and my friend got mad at me 4 doin em and bein round dwight. The thing is tho i need the meds b/c i'm in so much pain from all the shit my dad does. And i dont c the big deal b/c its not like i'm usin crack again or nethin? Am i wrong for usin the meds?

You're so grateful to have a friend like that. I've never done drugs and NEVER will. So i'm sorry but I can't really help you on this one. But in my gut i'll give you some advice....

I don't trust this dwight guy...even though you might trust him. You never know.. he could be giving you medication, or it could be some other crap. What I would do is talk to your friend. She sounds like a very responsible girl and I trust her. Talk to her and see what she thinks. I know you told me that she says to stay away from him and the meds, and I would listen to her. If your dad is not a good guy, then ask your friend if you can stay at her place for a while until your dad settles down.

If you have a school counselor, I would HIGHLY reccommend going there. If I were you, I'd go to someone who is older, more mature, and is trustable.

I hope everything goes ok! Inbox me if you need anymore help. I'm here for you.

Hi! =D
So for xmas I was wanting to make my boyfriend a blanket. But Im not sure how. And I was hoping that someone could tell me on here =D
I want to make one of those blankets that looks like its tied together(well it really is) If anyone knows that Im talking about and can help me of how to go about this, I would love it. Thank You! =D

its really easy... just take 2 different blankets (make sure that the sides you want showing are on the outside) and place them on top of each other. Then take scissors and cut little strips. once you've cut little strips on all 4 sides (the 4 corners should be cut out. so like a L and the corner is missing) and then you take the 2 different blankets and double knot them together.

You can also make a tie pillow. Do the same exact thing (make sure the size of the material is the size of the pillow. You can also cut the material into a shape so the pillow is in that shape. Like cut it into a heart so the pillow turns out to be a heart) and once you've tied 3 of the 4 sides.... start the 4th side but don't finish it, then get stuffing and stuff the pillow and when all of the stuffing is in there.... finished the tieing.

oh and I also heard about this person who bought like beads (I think they're called Micro-Beads) and they stuffed like a zillion of them (because they are super tiny) into the pillow and when they finished the tieing... the pillow was like those Moshi's. super soft and fluffy

but if you're doing the beads idea- make sure you make a separate pillow (the same shape and size as the original pillow) but the fabric is really thing and you don't tie it.. you sew it, and you stuff the micro beads in there. (if you put the micro-beads into the original fleece pillow it would spill everywhere and leak through the ties) and when you are going to do the last side of the pillow, you don't do it 3/4 done... you stop after you've done the 3rd side. Then you put the sewed pillow inside the fleece one and then you finished the last tieing side.

got it? a little confusing... but its really cool.

I don't like my friends anymore. Please pardon me if this sounds conceited.....But I'm just trying to make a point; I'm at a higher level than them. I consider myself to be, and I've been told I am. They always either put me down or just.....ignore and neglect me.

They never ask to do stuff with me. I'm the one who always has to ask.
They go somewhere with their other friends and don't even include me. They have parties, don't include me.
At other times, they talk to me only when they need homework help or when they're bored.

And these are my BEST friends. Like, I won't hang out with anyone else.
And they make me feel bad about myself....I know I'm prettier and smarter (please don't yell at me...I'm not trying to sound conceited) I consider myself to be...And they just sort of.....detain me, you know? I already set a high level for myself.

They all have boyfriends. And most of them broke up with their boyfriends, and their boyfriends formed an interest towards me...And they get SO jealous.

It's like..Friend 1: OH MY GOSH! WHY ARE YOU TALKING TO HIM?!

Well, maybe because he's not your bf anymore?!?

I feel like i'm wasting my life/time/energy on these girls and guys when I could be out there hanging out with better people or, even better, not hanging out with anyone at all (I wouldn't mind)
I really wanna show them that I'm not interested in their friendship.
Any advice? :) Thank you very much. And please please pleaaaaaaase don't think I'm conceited. I'm really sorry if I sound like I am.

you're actually right... you ARE wasting your time with these people. If your school hosts after school activities... find an activity that you have an interest in. Then just meet new people that have the same hobbies as you. For me... its volleyball. I'll meet a new person by having a conversation like =
me- How did you do that?
them- oh i just did this... then that.. etc.
me- oh cool. I'm (my name) by the way
them- i'm (their name)
me- so...etc.

and i'll just keep talking about the surroundings. Like say if you're in the classroom and the teacher smells bad. then be like- "so does the teacher always smell this bad?" and let the conversation flow from there. another way to keep conversations flowing is to ask questions. If you ask questions- they are going to have to answer them. If they don't answer... then thats rude and trust me, people feel guilty if they don't answer a question and just leave it hanging in space.

Just find new friends. If you're friends are getting jealous be like -its not my fault! and smile and walk away.
or if you find out that they are having a party and didn't invite you be like - "i don't even know why i try..." and if they say "what did you say?" be like "Oh nothing... i was just saying to myself why I bother spending time with you guys because you don't even treat me as real friends. But oh well... its your loss not mine." and walk away

walking away is probably the highest level of rejection. It makes the other person feel really bad and that you just ended the thing. You know how in like a sport and the tiebreaker is really close... like if the sport ends at 25 and the score is 22-23... and you think "ok i'm going to be the hero. I'm going to finish this right here... right now!!" You need to be that person and think that when you have a fight or anything like that. Be the one who stops it and ends it. Case closed... its over!! walk away!

has anyone hosted a foreign exchange student? how did it go? do you have any advice to someone who has never before?

my brother had one. It actually went pretty well he said. You just need to be their brother/sister. Learn more about them and see what they like and don't like. Show him/her the american culture but then also find out about his/her culture and try doing that. But I'll have you know that the reason they are even here is to learn about your culture. So its not the best idea to do everything their way. You need to do sorta like a 70 30 compromise. ya?

Show him/her the things a normal teenage american guy/girl would do around this time of year. Have a group of your friends and you 2 do something real fun. If you see a slight mood change in him/her (they start getting bored) then immediately change the atmosphere around you guys and make it more exciting.

Have fun!
-volleyball2150

PS: if things arn't going the way you plan them to, talk to your parents for help to help him/her be comfortated at your house. Rent movies, gossip, do homework, pig out on junk food.... just like a sleepover with your best buddies. oh and make sure that when he/she leaves... that you 2 are still very close and that he/she doesn't forget about the experience. Try not to make things boring and always exciting!

i'm 16/f and i met this kid named greg whos also 16. we've hungout before and i like him, and want to hopefully go out with him, but the thing is, im not sure if he likes me. when we hungout once, he was talking like all up in my face and really close, and he always makes contact with me but i dont know it could be a natural thing. and on aol he always instant messages me first, and hes really nice and i think we have alot in common. Now, the big problem: I think he likes this girl named stephanie. actually im pretty sure he does.

[ i dont want to ask him anything about stephanie, because im not going to assume, so lets just ignore that part. ]

My question(s): what should i do? what should i say to him? How can i talk to him?

Basically just tell me what i should do in this situation, and how to talk to him. Im not a shy person at all but this is just so hard for me

you can talk to him in person, or on aol. I'd do aol .... but that's just me. just talk to him casually and if you hung out yesterday or someday then be like "I had a great time on (name of day)." and see what he says. Then be like "we should hang out again." and see what he says. If he says "oh yeah definitally" then thats a good sign. But if he goes like "sure" then he thinks you're a friend. Then somehow say something like "I really like you" maybe blend that into another sentence.. because if you just straight out say it, well its going to be akward. So somehow blend it into another sentense. Like "(name of the day) was so much fun, I'm starting to think this will be a good relationship"

If you talk to him in person, look at his body language. If he leans in towards you (good sign) or if he is having his arms crossed (just friends)

Flirt!! do a lot of flirting so he will see that you're interested. Let him make the decision who is the better pick for a girlfriend.

Most guys love it when a girl plays hard to get. I read in a magazine- guys don't like it when a girl is aggressive and doesn't play hard to get. Then its no fun for the guy and they will find another girl. So play hard to get to get his attention.

I hope I helped!

i now this is probally the wrong section but i got a big black head on my nose and other spots and i tried popping it but its red and i look like rudolph the red nose reindeer any suggestions help need it school monday i will look embarrassed thanks in advance

first of all, you should never pop any zits. It only makes it worse. The toothpaste thing didn't work for me. I bought this product and it works very well.

the only bad thing is that if you apply too much, it can dry out your skin. but then you just need to apply lotion and its all better.

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 3 years and things are really great, except when it comes to the computer. When we first moved in together, he had his own computer and I was waiting for mine to be mailed to me.. So I'd use his computer to get online, talk to my friends, play games, normal stuff. He has it set so he has his own profile, and I have mine. On his computer it's password protected. So a few days ago, my computer came in the mail.. and we're both using it because his is broken. I set up a profile for him and I have mine, password protected. Anyways, the whole problem is, he'll wait until I go to sleep, get online until 4am or so and the other night I had to walk by the computer room to go to the bathroom and he heard me coming and all I hear is "click click click" like 17 times really fast of the mouse. That bothers me, like what does he have to hide? And he deletes his internet browsing history every time he uses my computer? I don't really care if he's looking at porn or whatever, and he knows that, but it bothers me that he deletes his history. I just get the feeling that he's hiding something.

I just need to know how to approach him about it.
It's frustrating me.

hmmm thats mysterious. next time he's on the computer, just be like "what are you doing?" but don't say it like "OMG what are you doing?!?!" you know?? just say it real casual. so like "hey whats up? what are you doing?" If he seems nervous, just be like "are you sure? you seem different. just tell me, i won't be mad"

-I NEED TO GET THIS 0FF MY CHEST.
okay so i like this boy, lets just call him [C]
well ive liked c befor and he liked me to, well up until one day, one of his friends where all like; you cant like him he's like a brother to you, well i guess after that happend he stoped likeing me and started to call me "LIL SIS" i dont get why i guess cause he didnt want his BOYS saying things or picking on him i dont really know. well after that he got a 'GIRLFRIEND' so he deff didnt like me, but i still had a BIG crush on him i prob liked him for about three years until last year i stoped likeing him. well now ive seen him around alot and we kinda hang out. -I'M REAL COOL WITH ALL THE PEOPLE HE HANGS WITH-
and i'm starting to like him again, the thing is i know he doesnt like him exsept as a friend, I'M ALREADY STARTING TO SUPPER LIKE HIM;;
i try making him like me i wright him on myspace, & [T R Y] to make him keep talking to me like bring things up like how was your day and stuff, we only talk for about 2o mins then i'll wright him and he will just read it, [WHICH SUCKS CAUSE HES THE ONLY PERSON I WANAA TALK TO]

IDK i just dont want to start liking him all over again and get hurt.

my advice is how do stop liking this boy
or NOT GET HURT?

-please please please answer this question i dont care, whatever you have to say anything can help me at this point just please let me know.

sorta like what the other one said... just focus on a different guy. It doesn't need to be a guy that you have nothing in common with, it could be a neighbor... or a lab partner, or just a friend. But don't even think about "C" and whenever you think about him, pinch yourself. You'll know it will hurt, and eventually it will hurt too bad that you're going to say "ok I'm not going to think about him!!"

YOu just need something to take you're mind off of him. Pick up an afterschool activity, or hang out with your friends, go shopping, take up a sport, etc.

I'm so exhausted by life, you guys. Do you ever just get tired of doing things? Of thinking and loving, and crying, and working, and watching.. just living. Everything you do - doesn't it ever just make you want to "not exist" ? Even the positive stuff, the bright side of life - it's exhausting sometimes, isnt it?

I just THINK so freakin much about who I want to be, how to be a good christian, how to get the good grades, how sad I am about my looks, how Im supposed to stop looking for love and recognition.. Is it possible to take a break from your brain somehow? Just STOP thinking for a while?

I understand that I have to keep functioning, doing what's expected of me (like eating, sleeping, going to school) but is it possible to just do all these things for a while WITHOUT having to freaking think so much?

It's ruining me. I'm so exhausted.

I feel that way sometimes too. When I feel like that, I know that I need a vacation. During the summer, my family travels a lot. I don't know about your school, but my school allows us to have 5 days absences for vacations or family emergencies etc. So ask your parents if it was possible to take a week off of school and go somewhere you would think is paradise. For me, that is in Miami beach, Florida. Some people think going skiing in the mountains is a vacation, some people think relaxing by the beach is a vaction... whatever vacation is for you, ask your parents if you could go and just relax. No worring about school, or what to eat, or what movie to watch next.

If it's not possible to go on vacation... make sure you get plenty of rest. If you don't get enough rest, that can cause a lot of depression (tiredness in your case) Make sure you're getting plenty of vitamins and minerals. Every morning I have to take a Vitamin C drink. I love it because it gives me a boost of energy in the morning. DON'T drink cafeine in the morning (coffee, pop) or any sugary items (chocolate) it may seem to boost your energy and make you hyper, but after like 10 minutes... you just crash down and burn.

If its none of these... go to the doctor. You may have what I had- mono. It makes you tired all the time and it makes you feel lazy all the time.

Before you go to the doctors though, try going outside for fresh air. Take a walk, go biking, work out... just get fresh air. It always helps me wake up and get pumped.

Okay well, I'm 15, and I'm not completely preppy [I'm actually not really any sterotype, I dress differently from day to day] but my favorite store is Hollister. There are so many cute things in there, but I hate that so many people shop there. I also shop at Abercrombie, Pac Sun, Hot Topic, etc. all of the typical mall stores, but I hate it when people are wearing the same thing as me. I live in Boston, so what are some good stores downtown or sommething I could shop at?

Johnny Cupcakes for example. I also LOVE Betsey Johnson, but seeing as her stuff is like $400, it's kind of a problem.

Just like the other person said... go to their websites. Like american eagle for example... If you go to their website, they're probably going to have some items on their website that you can order, and are not going to be at the store itself. Or look for some items that are out of stock in the stores and then order them online.

im getting contacts soon and I want to getcolored ones but I don't know what kind to get. I have bright red hair and almost pitch black eyes. I was thinking something like a dark green or blue because I like to wear really deep black eyeliner, and I wear a lot of dark clothes. but I don't know what the name of an eye color that's dark blue or green. don't you have to know the name of the eye color you want so you can buy it?

I suggest going to this website

it has a lot of pictures of red heads with different colors and it has the names of the colors too.

It also lets you get 1 pair free.

Well, Christmas is coming up and I've decided its time to get some new make up. The problem is, I'm not sure what kind of brand is best so I don't know what to ask for.

Does anyone have advice for make up brands, or certain kinds that work bestt? =] I'm not asking for specific colors or anything, just item type and brand.

i want to lose weight, and i need to.
i go to the gym and i try to run a mile.
and i usually do run the mile.
but i need movtivation to push myself farther and go for 2 miles or so.
and motivation to keep my from not eating so much, like if i try to eat a light lunch i go home an eat alot.
i need ideas please help.

Just keep reminding yourself of the results. Like i saw in this one episode where the girl wanted to lose weight, so she put pictures of models on her refrigerator so that reminded her to eat healthy. Or if you have an ipod that you can put pictures on there, maybe put some pictures on your ipod so when you run, you can look at it and keep reminding yourself how happy you will be when this is over. I also read in a book that you can give yourself rewards. Like once you've run 2 miles, you'll reward yourself with a new movie. Or if you can lose 5 pounds in 1 week, then you can reward yourself by a day of shopping and you can buy yourself new clothes.

what also helps me is I listen to really good pump up music. It really gets me pumped up and the blood flowing, and once I start, I won't stop. Oh and you can also take a stopwatch and set it on for like 20 minutes, and you exercise for 20 minutes and you cannot stop until it hits 20 minutes. If you do, then you owe like 50 pushups or something like that. It also helps to have a trainer or spotter. Have that person be a person who is very strict. Tell that person that you really want to lose weight and that they have to push you and If you start getting lazy, they should pick up your ass and kick it until you've lost some weight.

I wish you the best!
