advice

i'm 13(male). my brother is 10(male).


i've shared a room with him since the day he was born. when i was 7 or 8, we switched to bunk-beds. the ladder up to the top is prety much the only place of privacy i have, other than the bathroom. my family isn't the richest in the world, but we're in a pretty good financial situation compared to others (my mom is a college professer, my dad is a newswriter). my question is, am i selfish for asking for my own room. we've been searching for about a year give or take, and have been outbid in 3 situations so far. currently we're in the midst of bidding.


sometimes i do feel selfish, because my parents are slightly older, and i feel that i'm taking away too much of their retirement funds. (this isn't exactly all for me, the neighborhood we're in now is pretty bad for them, for ex: my view from my room is at my neighbors dark green pool, 10 feet away, and theirs noise pollution from the other side from a stupid bird, which drives my parents nuts.) so am i asking for too much?

no, i don't think you are asking for too much, because a 13-yr old needs their privacy and whatnot. I would definitely keep going until I get my own room. Your parent's job is to make sure you are comfortable and everything. Good luck:)!

What does it mean when your around a boy and he makes u feel like no one else is around?

It's the greatest feeling. Sounds like cupid has shot you with a 9mm arrow of love! :P
But really and truly, when a boy makes you feel that way, it's love!

theres this girl that has been following me around since 7th grade she never talks or when she can you can't hear her.I dont like feeling like I have a shodow its emberassing when I talk to people and they try and talk to her but she just wont talk. Its the most annoying feeling so thats why i dont even enjoy lunch anymore id rather go to my next class. even if i say to someone "i need to tell you something in private" and walk away she still follows me. Shes the shyest person EVER and i would feel bad hurting her feelings. BUT I CANT TAKE IT ANY LONGER. pleaseee help i'll rate 5's
thanks

oh.. she sounds so lonely:(
try to sit and talk with her and tell her that she has to start meeting new people, becuz what would she do if you changed schools or something?
let her know in a easy way that she's kind of annoying... let her down gently, though.
tell your friends to be nice to her and help her talk. hope it works out! :)

My friend has a 15 year old older brother who is having a house party. My friend has invited me and some other people we are friends with to go. I really want to go but if I did then I would have to lie to my parents. The plan is that I would go to my friend's house and tell my parents I was sleeping over then my friend's mother would drop us off at the party, we would tell her that we were just hanging out with our friend. We would go to the party and then my friend's mother would come and pick us up and take us back to her house and I would sleep over at her's. I want to go but I'm scared about my parents finding out because they would kill me. Should I go and risk it, or should I just stay at home and not go? I'm 13/female.

I don't wanna ruin your good time, but I think you should stay home because if your parents find out, they'll lose their trust for you, and trust me, you really won't be able to go anywhere then. hope it helps:)

well lately my friend, we can call her susen, has been really depressed lately. teachers have been noticing and she is starting to cut herself, when her other friend we can cal her lily goes to theropy for that now! she shows me and there not to deep but she told me how shes started to do it more now and shes scared. how can i help her? i mean i told her when she feels like doing it to call me and talk to other people. i dont no what else to do. i dont want to tell anyone becasue she might get mad and i told her i'll b here for her. what else can or should i do?

xo briana

okay, you definitely don't wanna expose her, because if people start to tease her, then she may do it more. You did right by letting her know you're there for her. For now, do just that and call her and check up on her and everything.
If it gets worse, then would be the time to call someone else in. Hope i was of any use.

hey,

i have to write a folktale in english, its going to be read by 7 and 8 year olds and maybe younger. can someone give me some ideas to start it off and what to put in there? -thx

Be creative. At their age, they'll be happy just to be read to. Make sure you keep it exciting and maybe add some new characters. Hope i helped you any.

Hello.
I have been having really bad luck with guys lately and im getting really tired of it. I dont know what to do because it always seems as if I either get to shy and dont know what to say or i say somthign really stupid. can someone please give me some adive.

oh, that sucks:(Try this(it worked for me)
breathe, and remind yourself that you have nothing to be afraid of. Sounds corny, but it worked.
as for saying something stupid, you probably get so nervous and want to create convo so bad that the first thing you think of, flys from your mouth. Think before you speak. Try your best not to be so nervous and shy. These boys can't do you anything. As for don't know what to say, anything is a convo starter. Compliment them on their hair or clothes or something:P Hope i helped.

I need some help. Ok, back at my old school, me and this girl Ashley used to be best friends. She also had another best friend named Nelly, but me and Nelly never hanged out. Now, we all started a new school. Me and Nelly went to the same school, but Ashley didn't. We're even in the same class! So gradually, we became best friends. But now Ashley is totally jealous. Since me and Nelly are in the same class, of course we're going to start talking. But she doesn't understand that. What should I do? Thanx.

You have to get it through her head. Sit down and talk to her. You don't wanna lose a really good friend, so try to get her to see. Prove your point that people in the same class are bound to start talking sometime, and also let her know that you guys haven't forgot about her.
Hope i helped.

I went to my gyno a week or two ago becuase i have had irregular periods for about 5 years so she decided the best thing to regulate my periods and help with my acne, was to put me on the pill..so today i started my period which means tomorrow (since its sunday) will be my first day to take the pill..anyway my question is...i have heard from many people that the pill since it deals with your hormones and such it causes you to gain weight..i am very self contious and a little heavier than i would like to be as it is now..so will it cause me to gain inevitable weight??????? please does anyone know????

The pill has many unwanted side effects. Some people get some and others don't. So you may not neccessarily gain weight, but it's possible. Stick with it for a while, and if you do start to gain weight, ask your doctor to find something else for you.

It was about 11pm and i called my mom at the train station when i was walking home. I asked if she was even home, she said she was at her friends house. Okay, that was a lie. I have never seen this women go out 4 times a week with the SAME people. So being a smartass i am i said, "Oh, are you with your boyfriend?" She was in shock! She dosnt know that i know she has a bf:

Actually i guessed. It was obvious. Reason 1) Look at her Cladagguh Ring 2)I see her sneeking out after midnight way to many times 3)When i told my brother, he said he met the guy.

Anyways, when i got home she was nowhere in sight. This morning when i woke up, i was waking downstairs when something outside caught my eye, there was a red car in my driveway. "Oh shit, they're in my grandparents room!" I froze staring out the window and hearing a footstep downstairs.

How should I Confront my mom???

I believe you should not confront her in front of everyone, but take her on the side and let her know how you really feel about what she's doing. she should respect that. and she should do something about it. Let her know she doesn't have to hide anything from you- if thats how you feel.
But she should do something about it. Hope i helped any.

last year one of my best friends went out with this guy for about a month. they broke up because he never really liked her. this year the 3 of us have a class together so im with him alot. he told my best friend (his ex) that he kinda likes me and i started having feelings for him to. but my friend just told me that she really likes him and hasnt gotten over him since last year. i dont know if i should tell her i like him to or just ignore it. she wants to go out with him now because shes not going to the same school as us next year. should i say something to her or just wait to see if we still like each other next year when she doesnt go to the same school?

Well, to tell the truth, I think you should wait, because if she's a good friend, then you don't wanna jeporadize that over a boy. Don't mean to sound rude, but that's how it is sometimes. So i think maybe you should wait. :)

i'm 16/f. is it okay to date a guy that's younger than me? i like this guy but hes 2 years younger than me, i'm a junior...hes a freshman. Thanks guys!

It's totally fine, honey, because as long as you both have feeling for each other, it doesnt matter what grade you're in. You're most welcome:P

[view]

ok i like this guy, i mean really like this guy. hes sweet and cute and is always super super nice to me. the point is, hes gotta gf! i really like him and im sorta friends with his girlfriend. but im really really jealous of her! do you think he sorta likes me if he always talks to me and gave me his number?thanks

i KNOW that he has feelings for you, some way or another, i'm positive. otherwise, he wouldn't talk to you at all. but just dont break them up!
hope i helped:)

ok well i kinda did stuff with this guy and afterwards we were like never not fighting and it was the gayest stuff too! okay well he like stoped talking to me and then i was like why are you being such an ass to me and he was like cause you are a bitch. and he just wont talk to me and i really want to talk to him and golly! it just makes me mad and i dont know if i should just be like you know what i dont care anymore or if i should keep trying to get him to talk to me.. cause i really do care! GAH!
any suggestions?

well, something's obviously wrong w/him.
it might hurt a little, but i don't think you should try to talk sense into someone who doesn't seem to care about you anymore. But don't worry, you'll find someone wayyyy better than him. Sooner or later:D

i have this guy in my class he is like my best guy friend ever. all of the girls in fourth grade drool over him but i really like him. i think that the girls that like him just like him because of his looks but i like his personality too.. but i dont want 2 tell him that i like him or our friendship as friends will get really weird wat should i do?

well, i know it will be kinda hard, but if you truly think that telling him will make the friendship get weird, then you might wanna keep it to yourself, becuz if you tell him, and things do get funny, you might regret it.

hey .. im 14 years old and i need some advice. theres this guy who ive known for the longest time and he lives in my neghiborhood. over the last year we started becoming closer but its been hard because most of my friends hate him. ive always thought that i had feelings for him but ive tried to ignore them. we dont really hang out that much but we do sometimes .. one day over the summer we went for a walk and wound up hooking up and i realized that i did like him alott. the next day we hooked up again but we decided to keep it between us so we wouldnt have to worry about my friends being mad. he still comes up to me in school and gives me a hug and a kiss but he does that with alotta girls n we act like nothing ever happened.i cant get over him and i thought that we would just stay friend from now on but then like a week ago we hung out. we hooked up again and he said he wanted to do it agian .. i dont know if were going to be like friends with benefits or somthing but i think that theres more to it becuse a few months ago we almost went out. i dont know if i should talk to him and see who he likes or if i should just leave things how they are because i like being able to chill with him. its hard because i have to see him everyday with other girls but i dont know if i could go out with him because my friends cant stand him. i dont know what to do .. what do you think?

hmmm.. tough one.
from what i understand, i think you guys should just stay friends, because you MIGHT not be able to handle him and the flirting w/girls.
And if your friends don't like him, they must not for a good reason. Hope I helped any.

Ok so I have these 2 best friends, they are always soo clingly, they do everything together and i hate it!!! Like one day I came to school we were all cool and everything, the next day they were mad at me for no reason!! Then the next day I went to ask them what was wrong and the "leader" of the two (one of them follows her every move) said they were just kidding! I was so upset. They always talk about me behind my back too. They even tell me they call me abd names behind my back. I'm not even mean to them!!I'm not like jealous or anything it's just i'm the third wheel and i want things to go back to the way they were b4 all this drama... (middle school drama) and I really need help I am stuck and I have no clue what to do!! PLEASE HELP ME!! I need help fast!!!!(i rate high)
Thank you!!!

i know how you feel:(
i think your friends have decided amongst themselves that they no longer need you or something. No matter how bad you want things to back to the way it was, you have to do just like them and move on, because you don't want friends like these anymore.
I hope you find some better friends because you deserve better.

i have a good guy friend that i hook up with a lot. i really like him and ive been thinking about having sex with him for a while. im not sure if he'll think im easy because were not actually together. should i just do it or wait to see if we go out?

This is a gentle subject. It all depends. Does he seem to confide in his friends things like these? If he does, beware, becuz he might tell them and THEY might get the wrong idea.
This is your decision, but my opinion would be to go out with him first for a while, and then it's all your decision. but if you are still unsure, don't do it. There are plenty more guys you can trust. Hope i helped.

im so confused... ok sorry if this is long... i like this kid in my class and hes so cute and it seems like he likes me cuz hes always bothering me and i know thats like soo first grade but i still think he likes me and hes all i think about and dream about and i always stare at him in class hes soo cute and i want him soo bad, hes like the class clown and hes kinda popular i guess you can say cuz hes soo funny. and he hangs out with popular people. i want soo badly to be with him i dont know what to do, i feel like im setting my self up for a big fall and i dont know if he likes me but sometimes it seems like he does! and i really want him to. how can i find out if he likes me? what are some signs? i really need help this is driving me crazy!

i rate 5s to anyone who responds!

I really do think he likes you. All because he actually gives you the time of day, and boys like to "bother" the girls they like.
It sounds like you really want him bad, so I think you should put your fears aside and talk to him one day and just ask him. Put it the best way you can. Or you might wanna let him know your feelings for him first, becuz believe it or not, that would make it easier. But i hope you guys go out!:D

i just asked u about the rumor kind of thing with my boyfriend with saying we went allt he way and we didnt...

hes the kind of bf that would be like TELL ME WHO and like if i didnt hed get mad like im learning to live with it cause i do like him a lot like a whole lot and it wuldnt break us up or anythingw tih him acting like that but thanks for the awsome advice!!!!!!1 just now..what if he begs me who what shuld i say

u give GREAT ADVICE!

I've had this same problem before. Telling someone what she/he said,whether it is about him or not, is being messy.
I simply will not fall into that category. So even if someone begs me, I will not tell. I don't think he has the right to get mad if you won't tell him who said it, because he wasn't supposed to find out in the first place. If he begs you, just tell him it's not important, and if he still insists, tell him to give you one really good reason why it's important that he knows who said it. If you do give in and tell him, trust me, there'll be so much more confusion and maybe a fight if things get too bad.
Oh, and you're very much welcome, my friend.I'm flattered. Thanx! I try my best:P
