Ok I have this friend and I thought she was ok until recently I was dumped by my boyfriend and now she flirts with him like hell the other day he was saying how much he hates her so he doesn't even like her but is trying to make me jelious and I'm sick of it because I'm not over being dumped and she's saying stuff like oh he's flirting with me now and keeps trying to hold his hand should I ditch her because she's really getting me down she's keps going on about him 24/7 some friend she is I'm really gutted but have just kept it all in me and not said a word but I'm really upset about it but can't even cry because my feelings are so deep inside of me please if you can help me if you can't then ok

I agree, some friend. Forget her, and the guy, while you're at it =P. There are too many people deserving of your time to waste your life worrying about these two.

OK... im a freshman and theres this boy that ive been liking for a week or so.. we always flirt when we see each other i.e he takes my pop, we play fight etc.

and i really like him alot and i wanna go out with him but im not sure if he really likes me enough to go further... So what should i do? How do i find out? Should i jus ask him out myself?
:( im jus really confused rite now.

Please help! Ill give a 5 jus for effort! thanks a bunch!

*confused chic*

Ask him out! If you're too shy for that yet, then just ask him out on a "group date", or just to go out with a group of friends. Groups=less pressure. Plus, it's an excuse to get to know him without any awkardness that might come alone with one-on-one situations. Good luck =)

When ever i babysit for this one family, they never pay me until weeks later. Im kinda shy to ask for it..but what should i do?

Just ask them. Unless they're close family friends or something of the sort, I'm sure they KNEW you didn't just watch their kids for kicks. Plus, it sounds like they're still paying you, right?

ok i just broke up with my boyfrend like last monday... well theres a dance comin up next friday... n ithink he still likes me but he likes another girl named caroline and he already asked her oout n everything like 2 days afta he dumped me!! but she said no.. ne ways.. hes obveously gonna dance with caroline but if he asks to dance with her but if he asks to dance with me.. should i? wat if he trys to kiss me or something? i need help! i still hav a small microscopic crush on him (the reason he dumped me was because he didnt want to get sick of me n then when we really had to break up tht he neva would talk to me again) n the girl he likes is so much bossyer like she tells him wat to wear n how to style his hair... i neva did tht!!! wat do i do!?!?

Nah, let it go. The guy sounds kind of jerky, anyway--I mean, his reason for breaking up with you was that he "didn't want to get sick of you"? Not to be cruel, but what a load of BS that is. You obviously have more than a "microscopic" crush on him, or I suspect you wouldn't be asking this question in the first place...but listen. Go to the dance, meet some new guys, HAVE FUN. It'll burn out, so just don't worry about him!

I'm in 8th grade and i like a boy on the bus but we really don't talk that much and we look at eachother but do think i should tell him i like him and embaress myself in front of all those kids on the bus or jus forget about?

Who says you have to tell him ON the bus? Just talk to him...What's the worst that could happen?

ok. there's this 7th grader at my school (i'm in 8th) and i like him. my bff's boyfriend is friends with this guy(this guys name is zach). i had a dream about zach and bff(gina) tells her boyfriend(brandon). so after school today, this kid is like all like trying to get gina to bring me over to him. we flirted at the beginning of the year and i like him. what do i say to him and do you think it's wrong for an 8th grader to go out with a 7th grader? thx for the help! oh yeah, i really really like this kid

If he hasn't approached you, then go to him! It's only a one year difference, but it's more of a personal decision on that one. I won't tell you that "ten years from now, the one year won't make a difference" BS, because I realize you probably aren't going to end up with the guy you date in the 8th grade...but I suppose it's true. Yeah, if you like him, go for it!

Im always grounded n it makes me soo mad! Tehy ground me for stupid reason and i dont no what to do! Every time i try to talk to them they dont listen and notthing changed! What should i do? Go for some real help??

Not that it's what you want to hear, but respect your parents and they'll respect you. If you show your parents that you're mature, they're more likely to listen to you. So, next time you get in trouble, accept the punishment instead of going on and on about how unfair it is (which usually does nothing but intensify the problem and end up screwing you over even more). I know, I know, but hey...try it sometime.

I'm so f*ing sick of ppl just judging others by what they wear and how they act..if ppl hate you b/c of it, why do they have to make your life a living hell!? Im so sick of it! Why do people try to ruin your life if they're just jellous of you? I just don't get how people can just be so incredibly mean!

I agree that people shouldn't be judged on the clothes they wear, but if you can't be judged on how you act, then what are you to be judged on? The best advice I can give you? Ignore it. Not everyone is going to like you. We're all be guilty of being judgemental at times, so the sooner you get over it, the better. Reality can be cruel...

ok, Me and my friend have been BEST friends since 5th grade....and now I am going out with this guy....I love him sososo much!! and I think that she is getting jealous over him b/c I dunno....but she like plays childish games with me...like (sry, this is long) on friday night, i was talking to my b/f and hse was over at my house and we were in the same room and she calls me on her cellphone to tell me that she has to pee....WTF?!?! and I love her to death...I would never choose him over her....how do i let her know that without actually telling her....

I don't really understand your question, but that's some friend you have. Unless you have some magical powers unknown to me, then you're just going to have to tell her. Try explaining to her that you value her as a friend, but she's annoying you when it comes to this guy. If she's a good friend, then she'll understand your concern and back off. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but you didn't give me much to work with lol =D

By the way, calling from another room, eh? That's a new one ;)

Put the cat in the laundry room (or wherever you keep the litter box) at night until he's trained! If that doesn't work, sob hysterically and go on and on until your mom gives in. Yessss.

I have a xanga right now and i was wondering what were some cool things you could do it you dont have premium besides music and a cool background. Also is it possible to have pictures on your weblog entrys w/o premium, if so how do you do it? Thank a million! I rate high :)

Xanga...sweetness. Hmm...well, I would advise to just browse other people's xangas to get an idea of what you like. Layouts are easy and require little to no work, and you can even find some that are already made for you. Uhh *goes to look for site*...HERE! http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=aLl_mY_layOuts ...there are some one there, I do believe.

I found this site to be a lot of help, also: http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=HTML_Codez_4_U
^^tons of shit on there, including the answer to your picture question.


So there you have it. Screw premium, Go html codes!...Hope I helped!

wutya do when ur mom always asks questions about wuts going on and how do u calm her down. tell me how to make her less annoying when it comes to asking questions.

I looove Bammy! (Yeah, I know it's supposed to be anonymous, but I couldn't help it)

Just remember that, as annoying as it is, she's only looking out for you (I know, I know, bit it's true). If you don't want to talk to her, then tell her that. Try not to get too pissed off and scream at her, because you'll regret it later on. You never know when you WILL need her help. OR, you could always just humor her and talk to her...she might not be all that bad =)

What do you do with a not so secret admirer that u dont like? And dont tell me to ask him to just be friends.

Personally, I would just tell them the truth. Try something like "Look, I think you're a really nice person and all, but I'm not interested in dating anyone right now". I mean, don't lie about it, just tell them the truth. Chances are, most people will respect your honesty more than some B.S. (which is usually obvious, not to mention stupid). Plus, you may end up liking the person later on, in which case you'll be glad you were honest.

hi, im 13/m i have this gf we started going out like 2 months ago and its been really cool and i really like her alot but now i found out shes been smokin pot and drinken and shes only 13 though it was her first time it was kinda shocking cuz i expectede more from her i still like her but i sont kno if i wanna handle this i dont know what to do should i keep going out with her.

It's obvious that you're uncomfortable with the situation, simply because you're asking this question. Based on that, I say you dump her. If you aren't considering that, I would advise talking to her. If she cares about you, she'll respect how you feel. Although it isn't uncommon, 13 is young to be getting into that kinda shit, and it only gets worse. Drugs are bad, mmkay?

Well, I've always been shopping at American Eagle and Abercrombie and those kind of places, and I HATE IT!!! I hate them all. I don't want to be a prep. I want to shop at Hot Topic, I am so anti-prep it's not even funny. And all these years my parents have made me shop there. Seriously, they will not let me shop at Hot Topic or anything place they consider "goth". I guess you could call us rich, and so I totally hate it. I just want to be what I want to be, which is pretty much "punk" since I'm really into that kind of music and I love black. I've been so pissed about it, but, if I do convince my parents to let me start wearing stuff from Hot Topic, will people call me a Poser because all the sudden I go from Preppy Clothes to Punk?

Please help!

Just so you all know: I HATE preppy clothes. They suck. I think about being home schooled and running away and buying Hot Topic stuff and just sneaking it to school because I hate my clothes so much. So don't think this is just a stupid joke. Thanks.

Although I too prefer Hot Topic to AE and A&F, let me start off by saying that what you wear isn't everything...Let me also finish with this same statement: WHAT YOU WEAR ISN'T EVERYTHING.

But seriously, although it sucks not being able to dress how you want, it isn't like you're wearing rags. Although it would be a lie to say people won't judge you by how you dress, the people who's attention you really want won't. C'mon guys, big picture here. Plus, in a few years you can move out and wear whatever the hell you want.

13/f
I always look at the people around me, happy with their boyfriend or girlfriend. I sort of want a boyfriend, but sometimes it doesn't feel like it's the right time. I have a few guy friends, but not many. I don't hang out with any guys after school. There's one guy friend that I talk to a lot, but I don't like him like that (and he has a girlfriend anyway). So I need advice on what to do? I know you will all say "You're only 13 you don't need a boyfriend", or "Just wait until the right time, he'll come", but..I just feel so lonely sometimes, and I want to know that someone will always be there for me.

Okay, well, you DON'T need a boyfriend. I don't say that because you're 13, I say it because you don't. Don't rush into things! I mean, you wouldn't want to get into a relationship and then have to end it right away because you found out you didn't like the guy, or because the right guy DID come along, right? Just give it time. Get to know some new people and see what happens, but until then, just focus your attention on something OTHER than having a boyfriend. More important things in life!!
