I want to kiss my boyfriend but I'm really nervous so I want to start with a kiss on the cheek. What are somes tips? Like as far a lipgloss and such. And, What should I do? I know it's sounds stupid, but, I don't know how! What about afterwards? What if we both get embarassed?Please help in any way! No stupid or rude remarks please! I really need help.

Don't wear gooey lipgloss if you're going to kiss his cheek. It'd leave a smudge and feel really wierd for him. And yeah, probably make it quick- cheeks are not for sucking on.
Afterwards, smile. It's his turn to make the next move. Best case scenario: he turns and kisses you on the lips. Other scenario: he's really suprised (eyebrows raised sort of thing) and doesn't say anything for a little bit, but his cheeks are pink and he eventually smiles. Bad case scenario: he doesn't do anything. Try to make small talk- it'll be awkward, but you can get through it. Worst case scenario: he says something mean and stupid- dump the jerk, he doesn't deserve you anyways.
But I hope it works out for you! Good luck!

ive been back and forth with my mom and dad. I seem to only cause problems. im 13 and im tired of hurting people in dec i tried to commit suicide by cutting 3 of my veins and i jumped off a 3 story building i hate putting people through misery so my next idea is to run away, but are there any other options, and i have tried talking i just did but its not workin so pleaze dont say talk to your mom cuz it aint happinin and no rude comments either (link)

You need help now! TALK to someone... anyone- it doesn't have to be your mom. It could be a guidance counselor at school, a favorite teacher, the school nurse, a friend, a neighbor, a relative- cousin, aunt, grandma, pastor at church, a friend's mom. Tell this person what you're feeling, and that you need help.
A lot of teenagers go through bouts of depression- know that you're not alone in thinking you want to end your life. But IT'S NOT THE ANSWER. You've got your whole life ahead of you... this too shall pass! Just think- in only 5 years you won't have to live with either of your parents if you don't want to.
Is there someone else you can stay with when things at home get bad? Friend, relative or neighbor? That'd be an alternative to running away- you'd be safe, yet away from the problems at home.

im not sure what catagory to ut this in but here we go, ok im usually always wearin a jacket because i sweat sometimes and i dont know why and i dont want people to see them especially boys armpit stains arent attractive and i have tryed a lot of deoderants like dove, teen spirit, a lot of em can anyone give me any advice on this horror thanks so much (link)

The best girl's deoderant I've found is Secret Platinum Protection.
However, most guy's deoderants are stronger than the ones made for girls. (which is messed up, since we sweat too!) So trying a deoderant that's meant for guys is a good idea.
If it's really bad, talk to your doctor- there are percription anti-perspirants out there for super sweaty people.
Also- try dressing in layers. tank top, t-shirt, and lightweight cardigan can help mask the sweat and keep the wetness from showing so much. Or wear looser t-shirts and tops instead of tight ones- if the fabric isn't touching the wet armpit, it won't show.

Ok, so there's this guy, Charlie, and we're friends. We're not REALLY close, but I've known him for four years. We don't talk as much as we used to because our paths don't cross as often. I've liked him for a while, a year or so. Sometimes, when I'm really busy and I haven't talked to him for a while, I don't feel like I need him as much as I do most of the time. The thing is, whenever I look into his eyes the feeling is so powerful. I mean, his eyes are so deep. And our conversations flow well. It's never awkward or anything. He's also funny, we can make each other laugh and everything. The thing is, I don't know why the feeling is so much more powerful when I look into his eyes. It's weird. And I don't know how the feeling can fade a bit but come back so strong. I've never really felt like this. I almost feel like I only like him to like someone. But then again, it's not. I was just wondering, do you think I actually like him? Or am I only making myself like him? Oh yeah, we're the same age, and sophmores. (link)

It sounds like you've got some chemistry going on. Then again, I know how you feel about the whole "like someone to have a crush" thing. I've done it myself- numerous times. I've decided I have a crush on a certain guy, then realize I really just wanted to be his friend.
If I were you, I'd try to stop agonizing over whether or not you're crushing on Charlie, and instead focus on more important things: like finding more time to talk to this guy- call him up, invite him to the movies with you and your friends, get his sn and im him, etc. Also- keep checking out other guys- there's lots of fish in the sea!

There's my best friend Alyssa. Then there's her brother who likes me named Micheal. And I really don't like him back because I really don't even know him. But Alyssa used to be in love with this guy named Brandon, but she likes this boy now names Micheal H. When she stopped liking Brandon, she wanted me to like him, but I didn't and now I do. But I don't know what to do, cause she even said herself that she thinks Brandon likes me....so what should I do? (link)
|
If you like Brandon, and you think he likes you back, go for it! Talk to the boy, flirt, make the first move if you have to. (good luck!)
Does Alyssa know about her brother's feelings for you? What does she think about it? I think you should talk to her about it, and also be clear to him that you don't feel the same way about him. (And be careful about walking around in your pj's when you and Alyssa have sleepovers... you never know what her brother might be fantasizing ;)

k so last year i was really obsessed with pink and i re-decorated my room so that it is all pink and like green (way more pink though) i really like the colors orange and yellow but my parents said that I can't paint my walls another color for at least 3 years! also i probably shouldn't get a different bed spread because for 3 years in a row i have gotten a new bed spread so i think it might be getting a little ridiculous! if you have any ideas of places to get good decorating stuff that is orange or yellow please tell me (and please be specific cause i rate really well!) thank you so much (link)
|
What about putting up posters on your walls to cover up some of the pink and green? You could even make your own- get some poster board and some yellow and orange craft paint- make suns, squiggles, other fun designs.
Try to coordinate other colors with your pink and green, more like a rainbow.
Also, since you're finding yourself changing your mind about colors so often, you might consider going more neutral with the more expensive stuff (paint, bedding, carpet, curtains, etc.) in the future. Paint your walls an off-white or tan color next time, and put up fun posters to add color.

I always find that making and using flashcards helps me when studying for difficult tests.
They're a pain to make- and very time consuming, but it's worth it.
I get 3x5 notecards and cut them in half. Use fun colors- it makes it interesting, and you can organize by type of question, chapter, whatever.
As you're studying, make two piles. Ask yourself the question. If you can answer it without turning the card over to peek, put it in the "done" pile. If you have to peek, put it in the "do-over" pile. When you've gone through all your notecards, do the "do-over" pile again, repeating until all your cards make it into the "done" pile, or you're too sleepy and mind-wandering to continue.
Start studying early- don't wait until the night before the test! Go to your teacher for extra help- explain that you'd like to do better, ask for suggestions (what's going to be on the test, etc.)

hi,
i've taken the whole am-i-fat testing and stuff from different websites, and they all say the same thing, that i don't weight enough. i don't have an eating disorder or anything like that. my doctor i guess knows about this, but hasn't really told me to do anything. so... what can i do? i eat until i'm full, and thats it. please don't say "eat more!". i'll rate you if you give extremely good advice, give extremely funny advice, or give extremely bad advice.
yours,
the thin one (link)

Try not to worry about it too much. You're a 13 yr. old guy? Puberty and growth spurts will kick in before you know it... at your age, it's pretty common to be scrawny.
There ARE certain foods that can help... yes, you don't want to just "eat more" and especially DON'T just eat junk food. Eat lots of protein, and other good-for-you foods. Don't skip meals- especially not breakfast.

how can i motivate myself to workout more? i really need to get in shape for softball and basketball coming up. also, can anyone give me some exercises i should do to get in shape? like the name of them and a very brief, yet detailed explanation...i will rate those who answer honestly. and please dont delete this question! (link)

Exercise videos can help give you routine and direction. Pilates is awesome- works the abs and "core". Also good is kick-boxing- you really work up a sweat. Or there's always good old Richard.

I need advice on how to make cleaning my room fun... it's so boring and i just hate doing it. My room is large, and there is stuff all over it. Any ideas to make cleaning it more fun? and maybe easier? Thanks very much! I'll rate good ideas! (link)
|
The good advice has already been mentioned... play music, dance, make piles to sort.
Also- reward yourself when you're done! Eat ice cream, or go out with friends, or have your friends over to see your new clean room.
Another point- try to get rid of stuff! It's a lot easier to KEEP your room clean if you have less junk.

tomorrow i take gym with 10th graders, im in 9th. and its going to suck!! we have uniforms so i HAVE to wear shorts, and i hate my body im just overweight and i know im going to get picked on and people are going to think that i suck at all sports. what should i do if they get o0n my case? (link)
|
Ignore them.
Try to make at least one friend in the class... not everyone will be jerks. Look for someone who seems to also be by themself, smile and introduce yourself. Talk about how stupid gym is, and how much you hate the uniforms.

Okay.. me and my friend have this lil problem... we are trying to decide what to do for the talent show ... we are chosing between broadway and disney... we;re afraid to do briadway becasue we did a briadway in concert thing in the fall.. and my friend is afraid that our music teacher and out administraitor will get mad... but im not so sure... what should we do? any ideas? (link)
| |
I would think it would be okay to do broadway again... just pick a different type of show! If you did Oklahoma before, choose something like Phantom of the Opera. If you did Les Miserables, try something from The Music Man.

My bestfriends boyfriend is comming on to me and me and him have a past because we were about to date but then my bestfriend hooked up with him instead.At first i was mad but eventualy i got over it.well they have been going out for 9 months and now he told me he has feelings for me and wants to be with me but he still goes out with my bestfriend and i like him to but i dont want to hurt my bestfriend.please help me and what should i do. (link)

This guy sounds like a sleaze. Don't, I repeat, DON'T give in to him! Friendship should ALWAYS come before any boy. If you do something with this guy, then he's the guy who cheats on his girlfriend, and you're the whore he does it with. Talk to your best friend- she needs to know what he's up to.
Now, when she dumps him (which she very well should!) and you've waited long enough to let them get over each other, and you still have feelings for him, then is the time to try something with him. Just be warned that if you do date him, there's a chance that he'll cheat on you too.

I have been going out with my boyfriend for 6 months now and we havent done anything more than hold hands and hug. THe reason why i am affraid to go any further is because i am affraid that he is going to judge me because i have never made out with any body or anything, and he has. I am just scared i am not going to be able to do it right. What should i do?

Has he ever tried to kiss you?
Assuming he has, and that in the past you've pulled back and said no, next time he does try and kiss you let him. Really, kissing is a lot easier than you'd think
I used to be the same way- my bf's ex is what I'd call a slut. So when I started dating my bf, I was afraid he'd compare me to her (he was my first kiss) But I was so wrong! He loves the way I kiss, and we're both baffled as to how it works out so good.
And it's true... if he truly likes you, then he won't judge you on this.
And if he's never tried to kiss you in the 6 months you've been dating, well than that makes me think that there's something wrong with this boy. So you should go for it and kiss him!
Or don't, if you're not comfortable with it. Never do anything with a boy that you're uncomfortable with.

OK. I kind of like this guy. He's really sweet but I don't really know him too well. He's also a good Christian and he's not just all about sex. It's nice to meet a guy like that. He seems like he likes me too but I can't really tell. He kind of acts like he's trying to blow me off. What should I do, seriously? (link)
|
It's entirely possible that, as a Christian, he's not into dating. So my suggestion for getting to know him is just that- get to know him. Talk to him as if you just want to be friends, tone down the flirting. Then when you've established a friendship, try flirting.
Or maybe he really is just a jerk and he is trying to blow you off.
