My friend has been married for 3 years. She and her husband are expecting their first child in December. (It's a boy.) They are trying to pick a name. Her husband really likes the name Jonathan, but he doesn't know that she has an ex-boyfriend named Jonathan. Do you think she should tell him about her ex or just go ahead and name the baby Jonathan anyway?

i don't see why it really matters since that is kinda a common name. But if your friend really doesn't want to name the baby Jonathan because its her ex'd name and she REALLY doesn't want that name have her talk to her husband about it and see if they can pick another name

OoK well there's this guy who I keep seeing in the math hallway -n- well everytime we pass each other we always lo0k at each other.WHat does that mean? I haven't really learned his name but I'm dying to ask..Homecoming is coming up..??What should I do?..

I'm guessing you've never talked to him so ask your friends if they know anything but don't go overboard bc if it gets back to him he's gonna be a little werided out. After you learn the basics like his name and stuff try and talk to him. Or have a mutual friend come with you to talk to him. After some time of talking and you think there's chemistry ask to homecoming. the worst thing he could say is no and there probably are a bunch of other people willing to go with you...hope I helped if you need any more help drop some in my inbox again

i am in 8th grade and i never had a b/f and no one has ever asked me out!!! is that normal or am i like idk weird or sumtin

no its not abnormal to not have a boyfriend before the 8th grade. When the right boy comes along go out with him not just some random guy. Another thing don't go out with a guy just to say yea I have bf, because that's mean to him.

hi does any1 like no how to get natrual highlights by not acually dying ur hair and stuff...please help me out thx

well naturel highlights means your hair is lighter in some spots than other. But try Sun-In its not as bad as it used to be. The last time I used it first I put my hair half up sprayed it with some water then sprayed the sun-in brushed it through then blowdried it. Then I let me hair down put water in it again then more sun-in and brushed it through then blow dryed. Lastly I put my hair in a high ponytail then sprayed underneath the ponyail with water and sun-in then dried it. I know its sounds like a lot of work but its really not it took me 15-20 mins. Also this is only if you want blonder hair all over and the brush make it look better too. drop some in my inbox if you have any more questions

does age matter cause im 13 almost 14 n i like a 17 year old n a 18 year old n my friend is bout ready to get me n the 18 year old out..plz help me

13 is too young to be dating a 17 year old. There is much more than 4 years. When your 13 your going into the 8th Grade and the 17 year old is either a junior or senior in high school and you two are in 2 different places in your life. Also its illegel for you to date the 17 year old bc of the age difference.

Hey, here is my problem, I want to go to a pretty "high up there" college, meaning the price is really "high up there" too. I am going into my senior year, and I am about to start the application process. I am most definitely filing for financial aid (as will every other college bound senior in the country)... I have also created an account at Fastweb.com to get scholarship information. My question is this: Does anyone else know of any other sites or places/books that I can find scholarships? Thank you all.

I'm going through the same thing. try www.collegeboard.com and www.princetonreview.com

I am 15 years old and have never had a boyfriend. Is that normal?

yea that's perfetly normal. Don't start dating until you are 100% comfortable. Also don't go out with someone just to have a boyfriend bc that's mean and you knows you might miss the right guy for you because of it

[view]

when your someone tells somebody you like them does that mean they are flattered?

usually they're flattered but sometimes they can get annoyed by it. Everyone is different when someone tells them that

[view]

is it wrong to flirt and make out and stuff w/ a guy when you aren't dating..? like little benafit buddys?

no its not wrong at all. But be careful usually when a friends with benefits relationship starts it usally ends with someone getting their feeling hurt bc they start to fall for the other person but they don't like them back. Also jealousy will come into play

[view]

if you make-out with someone you like, but you arent dating them, does that make you a slut??

no kissing is just kissing and its a lot of fun. Being a slut means you have slept with a bunch of people

ok, this isn't really much of an advice thing, so it'll probably be deleted, but I hope to get sum answers in

We have to cover out books for a few classes, and like I don't want to do the whole newspaper, or brown back covers, because then you have to use tape, and I got a new book, like I'm the 1st to use it, so I don't want to have to pay
I'm in High School

I know that in middle school, they sold them to you, but I don't know where to get the Book Sox now (thats how you spell it, I'm POSITIVE)

if anybody knows, and if at wal-mart, would it be where all the regular school supplies are?

your talking about those strechy book cover...right well if you are ywea you can get them at Wal-Mart, or CVS or pretty much anywhere there is school supplies and they're about a dollar each

I am 16 years old weigh 115 lbs and im 5'4". Well I was trying on homecomming dresses at my friends house But every dress I tried on I felt soooo fat or shall I say I LOOKED so fat! I was about to cry but I couldnt cry infront of everyone. Homecomming is in about 1 month and a half away. Should I go on a diet or should I just tell my friends I cant go. My friends would be sooo mad at me if they find out im not going because I never been to a dance before. Its NOT as easy as you think it is. I been thinking about it day in and day out. I wish I could just accept that im fat! Do you know any good diets?!? Thank you sooo much

I would still go. If you want to go on a diet go ahead. try the Atkins it really does work or try and find another dress that you feel confident in. Don't worry your aren't fat at all a lot of girls would kill to be 115 pounds

I'm sorry this might sound strange but my friend is very nervous about her first time.
Any guys and girls that could reply to this would be awesome!
Do girls have to shave before they do it the first time? And if they do...how so?

No she doesn't have to shave for her first time. Its complely up to her. But if she does decide to she should use a brand new razor, lots of soap or shaving cream and really the skin wet. Shave in little sections at a time and be very careful bc you don't want any cuts.

If you say I don't kiss and tell are you saying I don't kiss a person and then tell if they were a good kisser or I don't tell who I kissed?

Also, i've heard the saying preaching to the choir a whole lot...what does it mean?

If you can answer only one it's fine. Just need this to clear up a little confusion!

If you kiss and tell it means you kiss someone and then tell people about it. sry I but I don't really know what the other one means.
