Hello, my name is Sam. There's a lot that I can say about myself, but if you'd like that then you could always message me and we can have a nice cup of tea together :D

I am not very old, so I might not have too much life experience, but I do like to help people. I know that life often throws unexpected blows at people, but I am so extremely optimistic. Hopefully some of my optimism will rub off on the people to whom I am giving advice. I am happy to help with anything! :)

i have a best friend who is now seventeen years old. we were boyfriend & girlfriend a year ago.. but we lasted about three months. but the thing is that i only saw him as a best friend than a boyfriend, including the fact that i rarely got to see him. and apparently he didn't get over me for a couple of months, but later on he did. he didn't like anybody for a while, only a little crush here and there. he's been single for almost a month now, but i've had a couple of boyfriends after him. i am now in a relationship with my current boyfriend for seven months. and me and my best friend still talks alot like usual. once school had ended, and summer started. i went on vacation, out of the country... and didn't have a computer or any of type of phone, and my best friend went off to new york. but he came back before i did... and ever since, he wasn't interested in anybody. for his seventeenth birthday, i surprised him at the bowling ally. he was happy and everything, and we started to hang out alot more, and talk on the phone more. and did what we always did.

but lately, now when i talk to him, he always says "i hate my life" or "fml" and i always ask him why does he say that, and he says that he's a loser. i asked why, but he said he always looses things. yesterday, i told him to tell me what was wrong cause i had to deal with that for the longest time ever. but he said "i'll tell you when i'm ready, and right now i'm not ready" which made no sense, because he didn't show any clues that he liked me again or anything, he makes fun of me and etc. and when he liked me before, he was always polite and throwing compliments at me. and later on, i kept asking him why wouldn't he tell me what was wrong.. and he said "if you were me, you wouldn't be ready to tell you either... it's harder than you think it is.. plus, it would probably effect everything. what if it involved a special person?" and today, he came over to my house.. i went through his messages cause him and my best friend was talking about something, and he said "did you tell mary (me) anything?" and my friend said "no, why?" so i don't know.

i suck at reading clues... help?! (link)
Aww..
I think he does like you. It would all make sense. He is happy when he is able to spend time with you. But at the same time he probably feels at least a little depressed that you already have a boyfriend. Maybe he isn't ready to tell you because he is afraid of your reaction. Obviously, he wouldn't want to be heartbroken. I know it's probably going to bug you why he is hiding this (or whatever he is hiding from you). But he said that he isn't ready to tell you yet, so perhaps you should just wait it out. Maybe he is hoping to tell you if and when you and your current boyfriend break up.

You never mentioned once whether or not you have feelings for your best friend. You also didn't mention what your feelings are for your current boyfriend. So I'm not really sure what you want in this case, but if you want to be with your boyfriend then you should try to forget about this thing with your best friend. Still be best friends obviously. But if you are having feelings for your best friend, then that is a different case. Really think about this one. I hope that everything works out for the best. If you need any more help just ask me. :) Take care.


my best friend is not half as social as i am. i love to spend most of my time with her. but when im not with her i enjoy hanging out with other people. which is completely normal! but the problem is that she doesn't really have any other friends besides me. and i always feel bad when i want to spend the night out or attend a party of another friends without her because she isn't invited. or if she does tag along i fear she feels like a 3rd wheel. but than again i feel its not really my fault she doesn't have anyone besides me. don't get me wrong i love this girl to death. but i cant hangout with her 24/7! what do u think i should do? (link)
Hmm.
I get what you are saying. Is she not very social or something? I'm thinking that the problem is that maybe she hasn't really met too many people to be friends with. Maybe she is a little shy, but hey that's okay. I think you should try to introduce her to more of your friends. Maybe she'll find someone she really clicks with and have more friends. Or maybe you've already tried this. well if you haven't then you should. I've made a lot of good friends with people I have been introduced to. It's easiest for her to hang out with you because she will obviously feel comfortable. Sometimes being with people we don't know makes us feel awkward. If you do invite her with your other friends do the best you can to not make her feel like a third wheel. Include her in the conversation as much as possible and try to get her talking with the other people. If she isn't invited to a party then really, what can you do? It isn't your fault. Anyways I hope I've helped you out. Good luck!


Okay so I want some opinion's on why guy's only respect certain girls? I'm in high school, 16 years old, and it seems that many girls do have boyfriends. I don't have one. I understand it's not the end of the world..but, it's annoying. Guy's always tell me I'm very pretty (not to sound full of myself), and I'm also smart and kind to everyone. I'm shy sometimes though. Anyway, I've had guys ask me out, but the one's who do..are the one's I don't have a thing for. I'll admit..for some reason, I always go for guy's who are pretty much "players". I don't know why..I just find them cute and stuff. So, recently I liked this guy..he acts totally different around me then he does everyone else though! He acts like a nice guy around me, but then he'll go on myspace or even at school and start calling girls sexy and hit on them and stuff. Why don't I get that? I mean, I know he's had a thing for me for a while..and I kinda like him too..obviously he finds me attractive to like me, you know? Well, I asked my friends, because this happens to me a lot,..and they said he acts different and more like a gentlemen around me because he respects me? I mean, of course having respect is wonderful..but does that HAVE to mean I don't get a boyfriend because I have there respect? Ughh. But anyway, this brings me to my main question..why do guys only respect certain girls? Anyone please give me advice. Thankyou :) (link)
Hey.
You said that he has a thing for you? That's probably why he treats you differently. Guys (and sometimes girls too) act differently towards someone that they like than they do towards someone that they don't have romantic feelings for. It's different for everyone. Some people get nervous and can't talk properly (we've all seen this happen). Some people talk too much to the person they like and feel totally comfortable. Some people flirt. Some people stare. And some people won't say anything, they will be just be too shy to say anything at all.

Based on what you've said it sounds like this guy is very into you. Maybe he feels like he can be a different person around you, maybe how he treats you is who he really is and how he talks to other girls is just his mask. Some guys do it to impress their friends? I can't really say I know because I'm not a guy. I'm just throwing out a possibility. I don't want to stereotype guys by saying they act like that to impress friends.

I know how you feel about wanting a boyfriend. I mean, it seems like everyone is in a relationship these days. It can be pretty annoying to see all these happy couples. Well if it's any consolation to you, not all couples are happy. The way I see it, the right guy or girl always comes when you least expect it, and that's the beauty of it all. It's sweet to be in a relationship, but like I've said it'll happen when it happens. And in my opinion it is good to be one of the girls that guys respect. It means they actually like you for you instead of for the simple reason that you are a girl who is "sexy". And being shy is not a bad thing. Some people can talk all day without saying much while some shyer people save their energy to say important things. Anyways, don't stress. You will get a boyfriend and he will respect you. :) What more could anyone ask for in a guy? Sounds like a good one to me. I hope it works out with this guy, if not I'm sure the next will be just as good. Take care.


alright. im basically goin to give you some background information to kind of understand my problem. i pretty much have a group of 5 best friends and myself. we're known as 'the girls' and weve all been friends for a while.
ill call them L & S, my bestest friends, B & R, two that im super close to in the group... and then there is P.

P is the most flirtacious, bitchy girl but somehow shes manipulative enough to get everyone on her side. i used to be pretty good friends with her, i thought. but then i started noticin that she flirts with my boyfriend, gives head for rides, has soo many 'friends with benefits', i think you get the point.

ive heard from L & M that shes all like 'T (me) means nothin to me because she ditched us for her boyfriend.' which i havent, ive just had some problems with chillin at L's house all the time. (all we do is party there) and shes just like 'ughh T' whenever someone brings me up. L & M say the stick up for me.

L & S are the only ones who share the same view on P as i do. but we dont want to disrupt the group by startin stuff with her. but i cant take it anymore ! she makes me want to choke her everytime i see her. but she acts so nice to me to my face so i just return it to, once again, not disrupt anythin.

i know that i should confront her, but id have to see her a lot still and get shit from her all the time through my real friends.

what do i do !?! thanks sooo much. (link)
I think you need to ask her what her problem is with you exactly. Maybe if you just took her aside one day and talked to her about the situation, then you could find some common ground. I know you don't want to cause problems, but there are ways to confront her without being mean or rude. You should tell her politely (without mentioning any names) that you know that she has a problem with you and you would like to know why. Or maybe tell her that you feel like she doesn't really like you and is only pretending to. Something along those lines. She might deny it in which case I would just let it go or she might actually admit to it. Communication is the best way to fix any problem. And you probably should communicate before you get any more violent urges to choke her, haha. I hope it goes well. Good Luck!


14/f

I'm going to boarding school in less than a month and am currently in a relationship with my "friend". We're "together" but decided to wait on dating. We had dated earlier during the first week of summer when we didn't know each other but have become really very close. We have admitted we loved each other and are fully commited to each other....but as friends. I'm confused because soon we'll be going to different highschools (me co-ed boarding school and him normal) and I'm not so sure what, I guess you could say, the rules or guidelines of a relationship like this are. I know we'll meet other people but does us being only friends mean we're supposed to be exclsive? I love him as a dear friend and more obviously but...(i'm not trying to be selfish by saying this)but am I really expected to be alone at a boarding school for four years? I doubt it, but we're "together" and I really don't know what to do or what that even means now that I think about it! I'm going away, although only 20 miles away, to boarding school and he's going to some other school. Please some advice would be great because honestly, I love him. I just don't understand what he thinks being "together" means. In fact, he's never even said it, it's all been implied which also worries me because that makes me wonder even more what he or what we both expect from each other. I appreciate any advice you can give. (link)
Hey.
I was having a similar issue with someone that I really care about. We were boyfriend girlfriend at one point but then had issues so we broke up. But after that, we both still loved eachother (as more than friends) and so it started turning into a relationship again but without the title. Kind of like you, together but not dating. It was bugging me for a few weeks because I wanted to know where we stand. The only thing that gave me an answer was to talk to him and ask him. I feel like that is the only way you will know for sure what exactly he wants or expects of you. And you can talk to him about what you want. That way no one is confused about what is expected to happen. And no one will be hurt later on because of a misunderstanding. I hope you guys work it out. Good luck


If I ramble, I apologize, I have a tendency to do that.

The basic thing of this situation is that a friend between me and this guy I like has told him of my feelings for him, and my friend told me that he likes me as well ( my friend did that because they said that he won't usually ask a girl out until he knows that she likes him, so there's no rejection ).

Well. He knows. I know. They, we, them, all, know. And nothing's happening.

The only possibility I can really think of is that maybe he's still just waiting for us to hang out some more ( we haven't really hung out TOO much yet maybe.. 6 times now? ) so he could be getting a better feel for how I'd be around family and such as a girlfriend. Cause a couple days ago, I was at his family's house and we were all playing games and having a great time and me and him were being very flirtatious towards eachother poking eachother's sides and stealing cards from eachother and whatnot ( he gave me alot of high fives as well whenever we got questions right, wasn't sure if this was good or bad. I assumed good?)

He just seems like the type of guy that if he likes a girl, he will typically ask her out. He's a really sweet, decent guy and it's bugging me so bad as to why he won't ask me out.

And I know, I know, why don't I? I'm just a strange thing and just cannot bring myself to ever ask anybody out. :/ But I've been told by a couple people how if he likes them, he asks them out. So. I just don't know what's going on. Any opinions? (link)
Hey.
I think you are stressing out. I remember when I was in a similar situation. I liked him, he liked me, everything was great. So...why wasn't he asking me out? You've figured it out for yourself when you said that he wants to hang out with you more. That's probably it. The guy I liked did eventually ask me out. He was just looking for the right time, and not to mention how nervous he was. It really does take a lot of courage to ask a person out and so even if he knows you like him, he might still want to wait a little. And plus there's no rush! :) Everything is going to work out fine. But if you want to speed up the process you might want to hang out with him more and try to be around him alone. Given the situation he might just do it. Good Luck!!


Hi. Im 16. i was confirmed in the catholic church this year, and they said that to be confirmed you have to want to be in the church and everything, but truthfully, like many others, i did it because of family.

I am a religious person, just, first of all i dont believe many things of the catholic church. secondly, i want to find a religious place that i can be in and feel like i belong. you have to understand that i cant really go anywhere yet (i cant drive, and my mom is catholic and so is my dad but he doesnt go to church), but even if i find a religion that i understand and believe in i will be happier.

I' dont believe in many things of the catholic church. i believe in god, tho im not even sure, cuz i've read about pagans and they believe in more than one and thats possible. i also dont know if i believe that jesus was the sone of god. there are so many people who belive he was, and so many that dont. there are also so many athiests. how do i know whos right?.. i've been to a jewish temple, because my aunts are jewish. i liked it, but im not sure if that is the religion for me.

what are some ways i can find a religion that is meant for me?

thank you very much. im sorry if this is a confusing question..
(link)
My family is also Catholic. A few years ago my mom found this religion. I've really feel like I belong here especially because they have so many activities for young people to participate in. And the philosophy is all about peace and reaching your highest potential. I hope this link is useful to you.

I am really into boho, kinda hippi trendy chic clothing thats also enviormentally friendly. South Moon Under is one of my favorite stores, but its so expensive that i can never get a lot of stuff from there. So does anyone know of any inexpensive stores that carry that sorta style??? (link)
Goodwill and other thrift stores. :)
Super cheap.
Or if you have any friends who are of the hippie style you can try to trade clothes with them. Or shop in your mom's closet (I'm assuming you are a girl). Mom's have the best stuff. :D


okay so this is my situation, ALOT of people say i need to brake up with my boyfriend. He does this where he will talk dirty to girls and ask them to give him head and stuff on the computer.. mostly aim and myspace but he never actually goes threw with it he only talks about it and if i bring it up he freaks out and deneys it, i looked at his myspace messages one day i know that as wrong but .. i had a huntch and i was right and i brought it up and he turned it around on me the thing is.. im compleatly in love with this guy so much that i dont even care if he cheats on me.. well i mean i care and all but i wont do anything about it because i love him so much, weve been dating a little over a year and ive gotten pregnant by him but we lost the baby at 10 weeks and i love his family and friends and.. i just love him .. but then i see all these guys who want to date me and its like.. sometimes i wish i could date someone else because i know what my boyfriend does is wrong but i cant help it, im attracked to my last ex who treated me better than any guy before me never argue or anything, my dated for 8 months and i broke up with him because my ex who is my current boyfriend wanted me back.. we dated for 4 months before.. and we argue all the time at least a few times a week.. i dont know what to do if i brake up with him im going to be so deppressed it feels like i could never live without him.. what do i do? or does anyone have any advice for me at all? his sister told me i was over reacting and that he would never actually do it so its not cheating.. am i over reacting?
(link)
Aww I'm sorry you're going through this situation.:(
It's really hard to let go of someone you love even when you know that they aren't treating you the way they should.

I'm not sure if you lost your virginity to this guy, but that usually is something that really attaches two people to eachother. And having a baby with him would attach you even more. I know that it is really hard for you to imagine your life without him, but I don't think that this is the kind of relationship that you want for the rest of your life.

Even if some people don't consider "talking dirty" as cheating, it's just as bad. When someone cheats on you it hurts because it shows that they don't care about your feelings. And "almost" cheating is just as hurtful. I believe you when you say that you are in love with him and love everything about him, but if he is willing to do things to hurt you, it shows that he doesn't respect you.

If you two break up it will definitely hurt for you and you will probably be depressed for a while. But after you start feeling better again you will see that you have the power to free yourself from this situation and choose something better for yourself. You deserve better than this. You are not over reacting at all. In the end this is your decision of whether you want to leave him or not, but my advice to you is that you should do it for your own good.

I really hope you do leave him because you are a nice beautiful young girl and I think that you know deep down that this isn't what you want. Take care.


I have a huge problem! My parents will never accept my boyfriend because he's not Mexican (like me). Actually none of my family approves (cousins annts ect.)! The only person who has accepted it is my older sister and my family is mad at her for it even. I'm afraid this will tear me away from my family,
Is he ever worth that? I'm 15, he's 16, and we've been together for 3 months. I don't LOVE him but I like him a lot. Should I just break up with him because I heard family comes first and I don't want my family to break up because of this! (link)
What a horrible situation. :(

If his race is really the only reason that your family disapproves of him, then there is no reason for the two of you to break up. The saying "family first" does not apply when it comes to things such as racism. You obviously can not force your family to like him, you can however show them that you are a responsible daughter. If you keep up with your grades at school and do your chores at home, your parents will hopefully see that you are mature enough to make your own decisions.

I think that in situations like these you have to fight for what is right, even if that means going against your family's beliefs. This may not be the love of your life, but one day you will meet a person who you will want to marry and he may not be Mexican. I think your family needs to get used to the fact that it is your choice, not theirs.

Anyways, if being with your boyfriend is what you want then just hang in there and do your best to prove to your family that he is a good guy. I wish you the best.


16/f
Okay, well me and my ex boyfriend still talk. We text eachother and we still want to be friends even though we arent dating. We broke up about 2 and a half months ago. He was the only real boyfriend that i cared so much for. My first love, i guess you could say. Well now that we are friends, there is atill a feeling inside me that hopes he dosen't get another girlfriend soon or until im completely moved on and over him. He still tells me he loves me and calls me babe, and hun and he says all this a lot. The truth is, sometimes, i like to hear that because it makes me happy still. But, we are just friends, and to see if we are really meant to be, maybe he shouldnt be telling me this? Im not sure. I know i get happy when he tells me these things but should i tell him to stop because its the right thing to do? I want to see if we will come back to eachother and see if its meant to be the natural way. I dont want to make that happen.

So, what should i do? Even though, deep down, i get kind of happy when he tells me that, and dont want him dating another girl, or should i tell him to stop because its better to see if its meant to be? I think im getting attached when he says these things and will make it harder for me to like another guy. Im not sure. Help! (link)
It sounds like I wrote this question. I'm going through the same thing right now. First real boyfriend. First love. We broke up but I know we both still have feelings for eachother. It's hard to be friends with someone you see as more than a friend because you are always expecting more. You are constantly waiting, wondering if maybe something will change.

You should consider this: Who broke up with who? Why did the break up happen? Is it something that you would both be able to change and both want to change? If it isn't something that can be changed then you have to understand that it is really over. However if there is hope, then maybe you can talk to your ex about it and see how he feels.

If nothing is going to change then you should tell him not to say these things because you want to move on. The more you distance yourself from him (as much as it will hurt you) the easier it'll be for you to move on. I hope I helped. Good luck.


Okay, let's face it. My boyfriend's family is from certain wealth, and it doesn't help that he has a very high paying job.

He wants to buy me stuff, expencive stuff. Like a new laptop and he wants to pay for the internet connection, things of that nature.

I was not born that way. I've had to earn everything I have and it makes me feel a little uncomfortable having him buy me all of this. I know it's practically pocket change to him, but I still don't like it.

I know it hurts him sometimes to have me argue with him over this, but I'm just confused now. What do you guys think? Should I just try and not argue over this anymore? (link)
I see what you mean, but honestly if it makes him happy to buy you all of this, then that's really sweet on his part. It shows that he is very caring and although his family is wealthy, he still has a generous nature. If the situation were different, he would probably still give you many gifts, but probably less expensive ones. Some people just love to give and if he is one of those then I wouldn't fight it. Especially if it makes him sad when you argue about it :(.

I'm sure he doesn't expect extravagant gifts from you and that he understands that your economic situations are different. But anyways, gifts should always come from the heart, and it sounds like his heart is all for giving to the girl he loves :).


Does the OOKISA hair treatment really work for thinning hair?

Is it worth the money? Are there reviews that aren't just someone trying to sell it to you?

Thanks! (link)
I found you a nice link that has a lot of information on this. At the bottom of the page there are a lot of comments and reviews that can probably help you make your decision. Good luck! :)

http://www.truthinaging.com/hair/ookisa-hair-thickening-system/


I am looking for instructions on how to do simple hairstyles. Preferrably something that will take me no longer than 15-20 minutes, less time is even better. I have dark brown hair that is about an inch past my shoulders, and it is fairly thick. Naturally it is wavy, but the waves are very thick. I'm looking for a variety of styles so different buns and ponies, different hair accessories to use, hairstyles for when my hair is down, anything would help. Thanks :) (link)
Okay.
Haha this sounds just like my hair. :)
-pig tails
-two braids
-a french braid
-a really high pony tail
-a lower pony tail with the front half (like the bangs)down
-a side pony tail that comes down on one side in front of you
-a cute mini braid on either side of your head
-two mini braids (one on each side) that are united with a little clip in the back
-half up half down
-a bun
-headband
-little clips that push certain parts back and out of your face
-one big clip that clips one side of your hair with maybe a flower or some other design on it
-braid little pieces of ribbon into one (or more) mini braid(s) [it looks really cute :D]

This is all I could think of. Also you said your hair is thick. Mine is also thick and it tends to be kind of poofy after I have just washed it. What I do to flatten it is brush it flat when it's wet and then let it dry. Then at night I sleep with my hair down and the next morning it looks a lot less poofy. Hope I helped :D


Im going into my senior year (2010) and im really far behind in credits. To make matters worst, my councilor is an idiot and gets things wrong all the time when it comes to my classes and grad progress.

My biggest fear right now is that im not going to graduate with my class. Im going to completely dedicate myself to my school work this year, but i also have to have a job for co-op, which is only two credits.

I really want to go to college, but there's no money there for me. And obviously i've been really stupid in terms of keeping up with school. My parents aren't too concerned with any of it, they just want me out of the house soon. I turn 18 in November. If I stay in high school I can live here until i graduate, other wise I have to be out in November.

Im so depressed and scared right now for my life. I have no clue what's going to happen. I dont think i can do it. I cant stop feeling so....helpless? idk. scared. nervous. .....all that. I cant stop crying and its the summer before my senior year.

Has anyone ever been here before? Please any advice....anything would help. I dont really have anyone I can talk to about this. (link)
Hi. I'm sorry to hear about your situation but I think there are ways that you can fix this. First of all you should stay in high school because it seems like this is what you want to do. Secondly you should try to take all the classes that you need to graduate. As for college, there are a lot of community colleges that cost less than universities. Maybe after high school you could get a part time job and rent a room in someone's house or find a roommate to live with. You can make this work. Don't let your parents and your situation stop you. Also you should ask about financial aid for college. Anyways good luck!

Okay, so I have had a crush on this guy ever since the 6th grade. Well, infatuated. I'm going to the 11th grade now and I haven't seen him since the 8th. He moved to Arizona in the 10th grade. In 9th grade I decided to forget about him, since I lost all hope. But, this was hard to do because he kept popping up! One of his friends put some pictures of him up on a forum that I happened to stumble upon. I thought of it as a mere coincidence. Then, in May I was in Wal-mart and saw a picture of promise rings that just happened to have our names inscribed in them. I even took a picture of it to make sure I wasn't hallucinating lol. So, after a while, I decided that I would at least tell him how I feel. I know that he liked me back in middle school, I'm positive of that. But, I never told him, which I regret. So, since he likes for people to text him, I decided that I was going to befriend him again through text messaging and eventually tell him. Do you think this is a good idea? Or am I being silly because I waited too long? (link)
I'd say give it a shot! :)
You have nothing to lose right? Befriend him and see how he is. Tell him you started remembering things from middle school and that you remember him and ask him how he is. The wal-mart thing would freak me out in a good way haha. But anyways, be his friend :).


i just started my period, i have all the other signs of puberty, but i haven't developed boobs at all. nothing is there, i might as well be a ten-year-old boy. im 15, somewhere around 100 lbs (maybe less), and 5'2. im happy i started my period and most people tell me to be patient, but no girl my age ive ever seen or met still doesnt have boobs. its just impossible in this world as i know it, is there something wrong with me? will i never get boobs and stay flat-chested my whole life? it seems like all girls start to develop them before their period, thats why im so worried. (link)
Heyyy.
Don't feel bad. I'm 16 and I'm in the same boat as you. When I was younger I always thought I would get boobs eventually. I got my period when I was almost 13 and soon after my chest began to grow. Every girl is different. I have what you would call a small chest but it doesn't mean you will. And like the other girl said, some clothes just looks better on us little people. And honestly, not all guys care how big your chest is. My boyfriend is one of those guys who thinks little chests are cute. Haha. Just try not to worry about it so much and you'll find that you're beautiful no matter how large your cup size ends up being.

PS: if you end up like me, take solace on the fact that when you're a mom your breasts will be larger due to breast milk. haha.

hey i am going into high school in september and i am kinda scared. everyone says it is awesome but others say theirs drugs (especially at our school) and that since i am new to the school they dont really care about you. i also dont wanna take the bus to school. And i am kinda scared of the gr. 11 and 12's. any tips or guidance would be GREATLY appreciated thnxs!! (link)
Ahh. Don't worry!
You'll be fine. :) Don't listen to everything you hear, because it isn't all bad. The important thing to do is to be yourself of course, but also to be open to all the amazing experiences and friendships that you will make in high school. When I was a 9th grader I met a lot of older kids and last year as a 10th grader I made tons of friends with 9th graders. There's no shame in being the little one because at one point or another we have all been the little ones too. Just be nice to the people you meet and I'm sure you will make a lot of friends and be overall very happy. Also, if you joined some kind of sport, club, or something of the sort, you'll meet a lot more people. I've done drill team and drama and I know that I am happy that I joined both. I'll be in 11th grade next year :/. I hope I'm not that scary to anyone. Haha. That would be bad. Anyways, you should be super excited! High school is great, lol. :)


my boyfriend just broke up with me because he thought i was being selfish but i don't know what i said to make him think that he and he won't tell me. and today i saw this guy at the pool who used to live in my neighborhood.i had a slight crush on him but he likes my boobs and he wanted to touch them so i let him and we kissed but he tried to touch me down there and it turns out he just wanted to get in my pants. before and after the kiss happened i catch him staring at me. so i don't know if that means he's interested in dating me or having sex with me. the day he came to the pool is the same day my ex dumped me and the minute i saw the guy at the pool i did feel like i wanted to date him and get to know him more and possibly make something happen but my ex is special to me and i really loved him and i want to make this work. im torn between two guys. my heart says my ex but my mind says the guy at the pool what should i do (i hope this doesn't confuse you i feel like i just rambled on ) (link)
I'm really sorry that your ex broke up with you :( and especially for an unclear reason. Maybe he's mad about something you may or may not have done. Maybe you hurt his feelings in some way. Is there anything you may have done to make him upset? I think that you should continue to ask him why it was that he broke up with you. If he simply doesn't want to give you an answer then there is nothing you can do but leave him be and move on. But maybe there is a real reason which the two of you can talk about.

As for the new guy, I strongly suggest that you stay away from him if you don't want to get your heart broken again. I'm not sure what your ex treated you like, but any guy who just wants to touch your breasts and feel you up without even knowing you, is so not worth your time. I know it's tough trying to get over your boyfriend right now but you could seriously do so much better. If your ex doesn't want to get back together with you for whatever reason, then please do not pursue this new guy. He'll just use you :( and you don't want that. The best thing to do would be to hang out with some friends and try to get over your ex and once you are over him then you can see if you want another relationship. But trust me, you are young and have tons of time to meet some great guys so don't settle for this crush. :/

I wish you the best of luck. Take care.


Ok so i want to by sims 3 but im worried that it wont work well on my macbook. Has anyone used it yet on a macbook? Is it slow or does it work well? I also have an external hard drive which i could store stuff on but it sometimes doesnt work that well.. thanks (link)
It works fine. My brother has a macbook and I play Sims 3 on it all the time. There isn't a delay or anything. I tried it on a Windows and it's pretty much the same. :)
