I just got spacers about 4 hours ago. I felt just a pinch when I got them on but now they hurt so much I cannot bite down. On Jan. 12 I will be getting braces. I am wondering are they going to hurt more then the spacers, and how can I relieve the pain. Thanks in advance. (link)
You'll get used to both the spacers and the braces, but it takes a couple of days. Take some pain relievers and just try not to eat any hard foods right away.


okay im with this guy. i REALLY like him a lot and everything and im into being active with a guy like making out and everything. i've given head and been fingered and made-out with a guy before all in one night and it was my frist time for everything, but im not sure if my boyfriend right now is into all of that. He said he's eaten a girl out,fingered, and made-out, but i was talking to this other guy (that im kinda interested in) and he said that he probably wouldn't do anything with me. BUT my problem is..i really want to do stuff with this other guy and we've talked and everything..and decided that if we do mess around, neither one of us is going to tell anyone else. Im not sure what to do. I really like my boyfriend, but i REALLY wanna mess around with this other guy! Would it be bad for stuff to happen and noone find out? ahh. (link)
People always find out eventually. It's cheating and at some time or another the truth is going to come out. It's a matter of if you want to risk it coming out during your relationship. You could get away with it, but it all depends on whether you are willing to take the risk. It's bad even if no one finds out though.


I have a feeling that my two bestfriends talk about me behind my back. Should I approach them or waht? I'm very confuzed about what i should do. (link)
Approach them about it, but don't be too agressive about it. Make sure they don't feel like they are being attacked and cornered because then it will just be ugly. If they are talking about you, what will you do? If they do get offended and decide they don't want to be friends with you, what are you going to do? Think of the consequences before you decide if you are willing to take the risk.


i have been going out with my boyfriend for a little while now.. we were really good friends before we started dating and he is so awesome. he lives down the street from me and comes over alot and my parents like him. but they are really overprotective so i havent told them that i am dating him yet. im really worried about what they would do because i dont want them to stop letting him come over and stuff.. i meet his parents the other day and they think im a good person & his mom want to take us to a movie. but im afraid that when she meets my mom she will tell my mom that i am datin her son. so i dont no if i should tell my parents or not? what do yall think? i will rate 5's

ps. my sister knows that we are goin out but is waiting for me to tell them. (link)
Tell them first. There is always a chance that your sister might accidently spill the beans or your boyfriend's mom could tell them. It's better for them to hear it from you then someone else. Besides, if they like him, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. If you explain everything to them, then it should work out.


Ok i am DAting this guy and i am like the kind of girl who likes to take things slow and build up are relationship first and on or third date hoe is already wanting to kiss me i dont want to hurt his feelings but i do want him do be my boyfriend _HELP_

(link)
You need to tell him. If he doesn't respect your feelings, then you guys shouldn't be together. Don't compromise your beliefs.


Ok there is this guy we have been friends now for like 2 months well the other day he asked me out and i said yes but like now i dont want to be with him i have no interest he annooys the crap out of me and i think im falling for his best friend and he is obssesed with making out with me and im not like that but like i dont know what to tell him please help me!!! (link)
Tell him the truth and don't sugar coat it too much because then he'll think he has a chance with you later on. Explain to him that you aren't as interested in him as you thought you were and his obsession is creepy. Wait awhile until you make a move on his best friend so it doesn't hurt the other guy too much.


im a guy and if a really close friend of yours, who happens to be female, is joking and messing around with you one day and one thing leads to another and you kiss....what do you do? shes really, really attractive. however...she has a bf. whom she does NOT like at all. and shes shown me that shes willing to kinda cheat in the past. shes a really great girl, inside and out and i think the world of her. and shes stabbed me in the back before plus her friends hate me cuz of a story she twisted around a lot. and, when we're alone she can barely keep her hands off me. what do i do? (link)
Do not mess with her. That is asking for drama. My simplest answer yet.


Someone told me that dieting wont help you lose weight. IF i eat a salad for lunch everyday, will i lose weight? OR do i have to do other stuff too? (link)
Salad isn't always healthy. It depends on what you put on the salad and what kind of leaves there are. It's best to exercise along with eating healthy and dieting.


ok.i have this friend and there was a party one weekend.of course,I partied it up. But there were guys that i did stuff with. I didnt tell anyone BUT my friend. I requested that she not tell anyone about it.Then she told me the guys and 1 of my friends hated me because of a cake fight.I later found out that none of them said that. I got mad at her so she decided to tell EVERYONE about me night. When I first confronted her,she denied it. But when I asked her again she took the blame.She told me she did it because i was mad at her.I dont think I should forgive her.Can anyone help me?
Signed,
Angry Friend (link)
You should forgive her, but maybe not trust her with your secrets anymore. Let her know that what she did was not ok and if she does it again then you can no longer be friends with her. Also, tell her that she was being immature and it needs to stop. Atleast give her another chance to redeem herself. If she doesn't, then that is her fault and you can move on and find a better friend.


my room is really lame and i hate having friends in it because its not cool. i have basic furniture, tv, computer, but its so boring to be in. any ideas? help!!! (link)
You could possibly buy little knick knacks that make you room unique or paint it a color that will stand out. You can also make things to put on your walls to make the room different.


My best friend and I like the same guy. The thing is, he is dating my best friend. But she and he both know that he likes me also. He wants to be with both of us, but I don't want to hurt my best friend so I think I should back off. What should I do?? Thanks!

(link)
I think you should move on. Truthfully, he should be able to pick between the two of you and you shouldn't have to share a guys affections. Both of you should forget about him, but at the very least you should find someone better. He can't have both of you and you can't allow him to think he can.


ok well i have this guy friend who ive kinda been liking for awhile.I tell him everything and he tells me just about everything. Well my ex bf raped me couple weeks ago and now my friend is all like mad at him and cussed him out the other day acting like all over-protective like he likes me or something. He also gets kind of mad when i talk about a guy i like i do that because i cant tell him i like him ya know? so i guess what i really want to know is do you think my friend likes me?its kinda confusing me because he likes to joke around alot n ask me out and stuff but hes only joking and he gives me like really wierd nicknames but its always " my something" for example says ur my babygurl n stuff. so do you think he does? sry if its long ill rate high (link)
He probably does like you, but he could just be a flirty friend. Any friend would be protecting their friend from someone that raped them, so that isn't a big sign. I guess you just have to wait it out and see what comes of it. Don't tell him you like someone else if you don't because that doesn't give him the opportunity to ask you out. By the way, he might think you should wait before you have a relationship with anyone considering the circumstances with your last boyfriend (which he might be right about).


Ok, in school I'm in the "popular group" and my friends are really nice and everything but sometimes they really annoy me. Here's why. Whenever a guy asks them out they'll like automaticlly say yes (even if they don't like them), and when a guy dumps them or they dump a guy they'll be going out with someone else within an hour. Anyway, for some reason this really bugs me. I don't really no why either. Now a guy asked me out and I said no because I don't like him and now they keep calling me too picky. What do I do? (link)
Don't change your beliefs because of your friends. If you don't want to go out with a guy, then don't and your friends should get over it. It isn't really any of their business anyway. Sometimes it's good to be picky. Atleast you'll know that you aren't dating some psycho killer.


Ok i know this guy online and he thinks im rich .I met him because he made this site called y terror and i went to it and ever since then we became good friends.Well to get to the point he is selling ALL his sites that he worked so hard @ to get money for a car and i dont even think he is using it for a car so i LIED i know i feel really bad now .. and i said i would give him the 800 dollors so he wouldnt have to sale his site now he thinks since i promised him i would send him money from western union that he will get it but the truth is when he goes the money wont be there because i dont have it either and when i lied and said ill give it to him he said

Thank you so much your really nice my mom kicked me out ( he is only 17 ) and i live in my buddy's attic and eat mac and cheese every night and then he said now i wont have to eat mac and cheese every night


i really want to be his friend but i cant tell him im not giving him the money so what do i do ??

p.s. he told my sister he wanted to go out with me (link)
You need to be honest with him. You risked your friendship with him when you lied to him. You can't let him continue to expect this when it's not coming. You need to come clean and he probably won't want to talk to you anymore, but that is the consequence that you will have to deal with. Sorry that this is not what you want to hear.


well i like this boy right and he's spanish and i have no problem with that b/c he''s really sweet and cute. but all my friends do b/c im like white and we're totally diff and some of my friends are sort of racist. i don't know what to do b/c i rlly like this boy...what should i do
(link)
I've said this to a lot of people because it applies to a lot of situations, but you need to decide what is more important, your friends or this boy. Truthfully, I don't know why you would want to be friends with racists. It makes you seem like a racist because you associate with them. Either go for the boy and teach your friends that they are in the wrong thinking the way they do or stay with your friends even though you know that the way they are thinking is not right. If you go with the boy and your friends are unwilling to change their opinion, then you might just want to find some different friends. Friends should support you and they are obviously not doing that.


This is really long, but I need help! Last year I befriended three girls in my class. They became my really good friends, but one of them was my best friend. One of the other girls isn't very nice to me this year, since her and my best friend used to be best friends. I think that she's jealous. So my best friend and I haven't been hanging around the other two that much just because they're not very nice to us and some other incidents have happened. We've started to hang out with another group. They seemed really mean last year, but this one girl left and now they're all nice. So all of us are really good friends and we all get along great. We've all become closer through church, sports, and school, so I see them all the time. She my best friend and I just leave our two 'ex' best friends alone? They seem to be happy, but I do feel sort of bad. I'd rather hang out with my newer friends though. Help!! (link)
If they don't seem to mind, then don't worry about it. If all of you are happier without each other, then it works out. Don't completely cut them out of your life and don't ignore them, but don't feel like you HAVE to hang out with them all the time and be like you were last year. People change and things happen. It's all a part of life.


ok well im 13/m and i have feelings for my friend. The problem is that she has been going out with her boyfriend for a long time (year and like a month) andso i've been trying to be there for her and be her friend but now her and her bf are going through some rough times and she doesn't think he likes her anymore. I want to make a move but think that might be taking advantage of her and her situation. Should i go for it? Is it taking advantage of her current situatuion? (link)
Don't go for it yet. If she hasn't broken up with her boyfriend , then it is an inapproriate time. Even after she breaks up with him, you will need to wait awhile.


Hey everybody! I am kinda deppressed. I cant figure out what i'm good at. I used to skateboard and that was my life. It is what made me happy. But i got really bad at it and only get mad when i do it now. So i cant do that anymore. I like to make rap lyrics but also suck at that. Those were the only two things that made me truely happy, and i cant do either one of them. So i realized that there is nothing i am good at. And if thats the case, what is my point in living? And how can i figure out what i'm good at? Ive tried so many things like different sports, activities, just all sorts of things and i cant seem to be good at anything. Please help. Thank you all. (link)
You could still be good at skateboarding and rap lyrics, but you don't practice enough. If that really doesn't make you happy, then just keep trying other sports and activities. You won't know what you are good at until you try EVERYTHING possible.


(Sorry lame queation everyone hates answering BUT...)Well I just started going out with this guy, "Greg" and I really like him and he really likes me. But the problem is, neither of us are very touchy-feely people, and so my friends are constantly yelling at me for not holding his hand, giving him a kiss, etc. Well I think that I should, so what should i do to just be a little bit more physical, I guess... (link)
You shouldn't do something just because your friends want you to. If you really want to be more physical, then do little things first like lightly touching his shoulder or just kind of brushing past him so he can get used to that. Then, you can move on to holding hands or whatever. Just don't be physical because everyone else thinks you should. Do what makes you and your boyfriend comfortable, not what everyone else thinks is acceptable.


14/female Okay well this is going to be long, so I'm just going to warn you ahead of time, but please help. Well, a friend of mines mother has tumors in her head. Well about a month ago they were removed and there was this tube thing that the doctors put in her. Well less than a week ago the tumors came back and she had to go to the hospital for surgeory. I was pretty close w/ my friends mom and it's hard for me and one of my other friends to deal with it, and so were thinking about how our friend who's going through it is feeling. Well the girl who's mother is in the hostpital (Brittany) is being checked for tumors, and we just found out that she has one and will be getting her head shaved. Well a few of us girls (about 5) and a few close guy friends (about 10) were thinking of shaving our heads/cutting our hair really short. If you were the girl Brittany, how would you react to that? Would you think it's kind of mean/too hard to handle, or do you think it's a good gesture? I am so willing to do it because it's such a great friend, but I want some other opinions, the guys are defninitley doing it, and I got her a bunch of x-mas gifts and we've talked a lot. Brittany is very sensative when it come to her mom and her own problems and we think she'll either be sooo happy that she'll shed some tears of joy, or sooo sad that she won't be able to face us 'bald'. I know you guys don't know her, but if it were you, how do you think you'd respond. Again, I apologize for the lenght, I just wanted to add some detail, and sorry if it's confusing I tried to make it not confusing, but it still sounds that way to me. Thanks in advance for any help. (link)
I think the best thing to do is to ask her yourself. That way you can make sure that there aren't any issues with it and she's cool with it. It won't be a surprise, but atleast you'll it won't bother her.
