ok so i've always been like a really good girl and stuff.. all honors, does extracirriculars, doesn't fight with parents, the whole deal. well this summer(after freshman year) i started drinking just to have fun but now its gotten me in a little bit of trouble. k. so when i was really drunk with my friends with decided to call up this senior kid who is friends with my friend.so he comes to the house at like 2. and ALL of us kinda take turns hooking up with him... but i only let him go to like.. a little past 1st. sooo the next day he IMs me and is like hey wanna hang out? and so im like sure and we've hung out a few times and now i think i really like him... but ever since that first time we've never done anything physical. my question is do you think its trashy to go out with him because we met so awkwardly? and do you think my drinking has gotten out of hand because of the situation its put me in? thx. 15/f by the way. (link)

Hey. Well first of all consider if you really like this guy or if you just like the fact that he likes you too after that night. If you really like him than no, it's not trashy at all. A lot of people meet at bars and such and then go on to get married =). But if your parents found out you were drinking they would be really hurt and you're hurting yourself so please don't drink so much =). Also your experiences with this guy will be harder to remember. But anyways, I would seriously decide if you really like this guy and he really likes you so why not keep going out with him? I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

Hi, I need a glue that's safe for use on skin - I'm going to a fancy dress party and I need to glue some false hair (beard, moustache etc) to my face.
What kinds of glue are there that are suitable for this purpose, i.e. they won't damage my face skin but the hair willl stay stuck all night.
If anyone can give brand names/shops that sell them in the UK, that would be even better.
Thanks! (link)

You're deffinitely looking for spirit gum. There are several different kinds and it will work great. I really hope I helped and good luck! =)

Hi everyone.
I am going to make my Confirmation this year
and I need to pick out a saints name for it.
Does anybody know any sites that give out the saints name, and meaning.
I would like to have a saint that has something to do with singing, because I love to sing.
Thank you very much in advance :] (link)
| |
Hey. I just made my Confirmation in June. Although, we didn't pick saints names since I'm Protestant. But I found a website that I think should be a lot of help =). Here it is: http://wordbytes.org/saints/names.htm I really hope this helped and good luck!

Hi. i was just wondering if anyone knew a website where i could find cute, colorful, playful dresses. There is a dance next month where you are supposed to dress up and stuff. ha. i have already looked in jcpenny and macys and mandees. thank you =] (link)
| |
Hey. Try Nordstroms. Also, Annie Says has really nice colorful dresses. Sometimes, Joyce Leslie is a hit and miss but a friend of mine got a dress from the for formal. I really hope I helped and good luck! =)

I have known this girl for quite sometime now and we are best friends and we've been best friends for a while now. I really feel like I am truly in love with her. I would do any thing for her and any thing to be with her. She means more to me than anything in the world. I would die for her. I feel like shes the only one in the world who understands me and the only one who I am ment for. But the thing is that we are just friends. I've never done the slightest thing with her. I've liked her since I became friends with her. I don't know what to do. She's all I ever think about. And the worst part is I know for a fact that she doesn't want to be with me because she doesn't want to lose such a good friendship. Shes the only person on the planet that I've never gotten into a fight with. I want to be with her so bad what do I do?

Hey. Well if you tell your friend this right away she will probably be really shocked at first and she may be so shocked that she will turn you down. Not your fault. Also, if you have this great relationship she may feel the same way about you too and you'd never know it. I just read a poem about this on this internet and they both never told eachother that they felt the same way about each other. Start off slowly. First maybe ask her if she wants to go to the movies or something and then maybe give her a kiss to see her reaction. If she objects tell her how you feel and that you think you're meant for each other. Tell her you can start off slow if she wants and this may make her more comfortable and will make her feel it won't ruin your friendship. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

ok so i wanna start by saying that i would NEVER cheat on my boyfriend.
ok dont get me wrong i like my boyfriend a TON,like i makeout with him and would do anything for him.
but sometimes i get the feeling like he doesnt like me even tho he says he does.
and sometimes he treats me like im stupid.
i didnt realize this until one of my best friends pointed it out.he told me that he really likes me and is always telling em how lucky my boyfriend is.
i hangout with him at him house and we have SO much fun,its almost like were going out already.
but i havent done ANYTHING to cheat on my boyfriend.
my question is,should i breakup with my bf for my best friend who would treat me better,or stick with my super hott amazing boyfriend that i could try to fix things with?
also,im not really sure who to choose because when were alone my boyfriend is really nice.and when im alone with my bff hes so funny and sweet. this is killing me i cant veen sleep at night.idk wht to do.=[. (link)
| |
Hey. Well first off, this Is a really tough situation you're in. Do you really love your boyfriend a lot? If he makes you feel stupid sometimes than that's not a good sign. But if you really aren't sure about this and have a lot of fun with him than he may feel the same about you. Or, have you always really liked your best friend? If you feel like you're already going out with him than that's an amazing relationship too. But do you think this could mess up your friendship? Or you may feel that this would strengthen it. You really know what you want to do deep down but you probably don't want to hurt anyone. If you break up with your boyfriend I would tell him you still want to be friends (as you probably know) and let him down easy. Whoever you feel you have the better time with and makes you the most comfortable, choose that guy =). I really hope I helped you and good luck! =)

15/f (freshman). I'm thinking of going to the University of Texas at Austin to get a degree from the business school there. I'm from Texas, and Texas high school students are automatically admitted into any state school if they are in the top ten percent of their class. My class ranking is 7 out of 355, and when I took the OLD SAT in the seventh grade, I made a 1110. My unweighted GPA is 4.0, and my weighted GPA is 4.3. I'm involved in various extracurriculars. I was wondering, if any of you have experience with UT or any state school, if I continue like this throughout high school, in your opinion, should I be able to succeed at the UT business school? Thanks. (link)
| |
Hey. Well first of all congratulations. 7 out of 335 is amazing =). I really appreciate high achievers lol. It sounds like you're a really high achiever (wonderful :D) and smart too. I definitely think you could handle yourself there if you set your mind to it. You should definitely be able to succeed with those scores. I really hope I helped and good luck! =)

Hi, I LOVE to exercise but I can't seem to keep a flat stomach without being flat chested. When I am not exercising a lot and my stomach starts to get more fat on it, my boobs are only a 34 B. I'm fine with this, but when I exercise and get a flat stomach (which I like the look of) I am 34 A. There doesn't really seem to be a "happy medium."
In your opinion, which looks better? Decent sized boobs and slightly large stomach? Or smaller boobs and flat stomach? I am on the fence.
Thanks! =) (link)
| |
Hey. I'm 14/f and personally I think that a flat stomach is a really nice thing to have lol. It doesn't really matter if your chest is a bit smaller because a lot of people still look great with smaller chests. Thin is always a nice look. I really hope I helped! =)

about this guy. i dont know if i like him or not.. or if he likes me or not. i mean.. at first i liked him because i thought he was cute, but then i thought that was a dumb reason alone to like someone. and now.. i still kinda feel iffy about him, since i can be shy around guys i like.. im not shy, but... i dunno, its kinda awkward. and i may still like him.. i mean his personality is okay, and we're nice to each other i guess, but hes not that smart.. maybe thats a bad reason not to like someone.. maybe i should just try to be his friend, but i wanna do it then in like.. a cool way, not in away that would make it seem that i have a crush on him though i might. and some days he pays attention to me.. like today he came over to my table when i was talking to some other guy about a picture i drew for art, and he was talking about it too (it was like a collage of my name and they were trying to figure out what letters where which. it was pretty funny) and some other time my friend told me that shes never seen me with my hair up alot, and he just quickly turned around and saw then turned back. oooooookay............ and some other things too.. like once he stood up for me after this retard kid was making fun of my instrument, and etc. urggg guys are confusing! (link)
| |
Hey. It defintely does sound like he likes you but he seems a bit shy. I would start with being his friend which will make him happy and more confident and then if you feel you really like him, ask him out. He does sound like he likes you. If you feel he's really not your type that's ok too, you can still be friends. If he turns you down it might be because of nerves so I wouldn't get hurt. But, it definitely sounds as if he likes you. I really hope I helped and good luck! =)

that i like and i dont know how to talk to her can anyone help me with convos and short talk and long term talk. Im not one of those guys who can think of anything to talk and then talk about it. So can anyone help me. (link)
| |
Hey. Well first of all, you can't get nervous when your talking to her or the conversation won't be good at all, or fun for you. I know it's hard but remember she's a person just like you and everyone around you who may secretely like you too =). As if you didn't know half of that :p. Try getting hooked on a certain topic she seems to enjoy and go with that. It's really not good to just ask a random question like "do you like the mall?" because it may look strange. But try starting off with small talk and then getting somewhere. Talk about similair classes you have, teachers you like/dislike, places near your house etc. Once you do get started on a conversation it's always good to ask questions, but not too many of course. I really hope this helped you and good luck! =)

i got my belly button pierced almost a month ago. ive been washing it when im in the shower but i feel i should do more. any advice on how to keep it clean? (link)
| |
Hey. Well if it's not infected and such you're probably doing a great job. But here is some advice to keep it clean. As you probably know don't play with it, spin it etc. If you're wearing something you think might get ripped put a loose band-aid on it. It's good to wash it three times a day. Use anti-bacterial soap (such as Dial). Rub your stomach so the soap covers it. Then clean on side of the ring, turn it and clean the other side. Rinse it and turn it while you rinse. Afterwards use "Sea Salt" mixture which you can get at your grocery store and pour it over while you turn it. I really hope this helped and I actually got this information from http://www.faqs.org/qa/qa-11962.html if you want to look farther into it. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

When you wear body spray, do you wear it before you put on your shirt or when your shirt is on? Because I spray it anytime before recess but then I was wondering if it would colour my clothes if I spray it too much and someone said you should spray it before you dress..which reminds me of the Axe body spray commercial where the guy sprayed it on his chest before he wore his shirt on. (link)
| |
Hey. I'm sure it's fine that you're spraying it with your clothes on but normally it would work better if you did it before you get dressed so it doesn't get on your clothes and such and it has a more lasting effect. I really hope this helped! =)

i have a lot of hiar on my arms
i want to make it less noticable
is it bad to wax,shave, nair it?
should i just bleach it or forget about it?
any suggestions or comments,
thanks (link)
| |
Hey. It's pretty much just like shaving your legs. Once you start you have to keep doing it and it will grow back more. If you don't mind this than that would work out great. If you're going to wax them it would be the same as waxing your legs but just use cream so they don't look all red. If you don't want to go through all the trouble of constantly having to reshave your arms and stuff than yes, bleaching is probably best. I really hope I helped! =)

this question is for girls...
i was wondering what girls look for in guys. like how do you like a guy? because i really like this girl and i want her to like me back. help please! (link)
| |
What I really like in a guy is that they're honest to me. I think that it the most important thing of all. Also, a guy who has a good sense of humor and is really nice but still has a cool, outgoing way about them. That's really about it. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

Is it safe to put a picture of yourslef on your advice coluum? I dont really trust the internet... (link)
| |
Hey. You sound just like me. It's so horrible how there are so many creeps out there on the internet but unfortunately, that's our world. I think it would be ok if that's all you put up of yourself but don't put Any other information about yourself as you probably know. I really hope this helped! =)

OK, so I'm kind of interested in my ex again. We recently started talking after two years, and I think I might have feelings for him again. He's just taking a 'break' with his girlfriend. We flirted a LITTLE, but How else can I just drop him a couple hints? (link)
| |
Hey. Well first of all think back to why you broke up with him in the first place. Do you really want whatever it was to happen again? If you feel it was for stupid reasons and really do have feelings for him again I would try writing him a letter explaining how you feel since this might be easier for both of you. If you feel awkward doing this I would maybe flirt with him a little more and then explain how you're feeling about him. He may still be feeling multiple things if he's just taking a "break" with his girlfriend so give it time. Or that may have been his way of saying that he has feelings for you again too but he didn't want to actually say this. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

okay, well my mom and her boyfriend smoke. a lot.
i only visit on saturdays, but it drives me CRAZY because whenever i come home i smell like ciggerettes. and i dispise that smell. i don't like people who smoke that much either, because i have heart issues and i can't really breathe around it.
how can i try and convince my mom and her boyfriend to stop smoking? i already tried, and i told them how bad it is for you and everything, but they didnt' care. i WANT them to care. i hate this.
can someone give me advice on how to avoid this? or something? (link)
| |
Hey. I would try talking to your mom alone once more. Tell her how much you love her and that you really wouldn't want anything to happen to her because she's your world. Tell her how upset you would be. Tell her that you know it will be hard to quit but you're going to help her through it because you're her daughter and you love her. Also, tell her that you really want to help her boyfriend too and that you're willing to help him too. Say that you love visiting her but you worry about all of your health because second hand smoke really is just as bad for you. If you find it difficult to do this in person I would write her a letter telling her how much you love her and want her and her boyfriend to quit. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

I don't know if this is in the right category but I hope it is. Well anyway, I'm going to Florida this summer for a vacation. 13/f(not that my asl has anything to do with it). but i live in maine so i was wondering what the easiest way of transportation would be because my parents cant decide whether 2 get a plane (cuz the tickets cost more) or take the car down there (it would be like 3 days of driving! and the gas costs a LOT). and one more thing:
what are some good hotels or good places to see there? thanks
(link)
| |
Hey. Lucky! Haha. Anyways, a plane definitely would cost a lot more but of course it would be A lot quicker. So whatever your family feels would be better. It really depends if your family likes driving first of all. Also, if you do the driving you would have to make it into a sort of mini-trip along the way. You would have to stop at hotels along the way (unless you're going to sleep in the car) and stop to eat every day. With the plane (as you know) it would be a one-day thing and then you're in Florida. So it really depends on that. I know that when I went a few years ago we stayed at the Hard Rock hotel which was extremely nice. The pool had a Big water slide going into the pool and it was five minutes away from Universal Studios. You also get a pass where you can cut the lines if you stay there and it's close to Disney. But, it's very expensive. I remember the other time I went was when I was four and we stayed at a hotel that had a pool shaped like a piano which was also very cool (but I'm sure that wasn't a lot of help lol). There are so many great hotels in Florida so try looking some up online if you want. Also, think of the location you would like for the hotel such as near Disney or maybe you just want to be near a beach. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

I'm 15/F. I'm really crushing on a guy who's also 15. I've known him for 10 years now, give or take, and our relationship has been made up mostly of him teasing me.
I never really saw him as much else than "that guy who teases me a lot". Then about a week ago, I started liking him all of a sudden. But the problem is, now that I like him, I have no idea what to say to him! I really want to talk to him & such, but whenever I try I get really nervous and I can't come up with a good excuse to talk to him. If I do, then I come up with something really stupid. I actually talked to him about the weather...
I don't want to appear too obvious. =[
Advice please? (link)
| |
Hey. If tis guy has been teasing you for ten years, believe it or not, it sounds like he really likes you too. Also, you've known each other for such a long time and probably have a lot of memories from school and stuff. You're probably shaking your head no right now that he doesn't like you if he's always teasing you but that's exactly what a guy does when they like you. If he didn't he'd rather be ignoring you or being a casual friend. I bet he's always felt the way about you that you recently have felt about him and has never been able to work up the guts since he felt that you didn't feel the same way about him. So he just continued teasing you hoping eventually you would start to like him, or get mad and ask him why he always does this. So anyways, I wouldn't be afraid to go up and ask him, he's the one who's probably been afraid to ask you for ten years! Keep that in mind. And if it turns out he just wants to be friends I wouldn't worry about it because you just started liking him. But I'm pretty sure he likes you =). I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

Is it better to start running and working your way up to a half mile, then a mile, and so forth and so on?
Because our teacher is making us run a half mile, and none of us basicly were prepared for that, EVEN though its only a half mile, its 8 laps about in our gym. And he didnt even have us practice running, like start with 3 laps, and go to 5 ... he just made us run 8 right away.
And its absolutely horrible and so hard!
What do you think about this,
wouldnt it be better if you gradually worked your way up to a half mile, then mile..? (link)
| |
Hey. Yes it Would definitely be easier to start running at a slower pace or with less laps and then work your way up. That's why a lot of people are good at running. They start practicing and then add a little more running to their day each step of the way. I know this is what one of my friends did and now she's one of the fastest on the team and could probably run 6 miles a day =). Of course this took years but still. I would just try practicing on your own at home so that it will be easier for you and much less tiring. I wouldn't complain to the teacher because he'll just be angry you're contradicting his methods (which I know is wrong) and won't change his ways. Unless I'm totally wrong and he's a really nice guy than I would definitely try talking to him about it. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)
