My girlfriend says im a good singer, and im good at guitar, but i dont really know, i love her a lot, and i believe everything she says, but i really dont think im much of a singer or guitarist. what do you think? (link)
I don't think she would lie to you, being as she is your girlfriend and I'm assuming she's the person who posted at the very bottom. Either way I suggest studying and practicing singing and playing the guitar, because even if you're already good -- you'll become even better.

Also, if you're still not convinced, you could play your guitar and sing in front of some opinionated people you know, or play in front of someone whom you're not very close to. They definitely wouldn't lie about your singing and guitar playing, even though I honestly don't believe your girlfriend is lying. :)


I need a few more roller disco soundtracks, preferable well - known songs
ive got *beegees staying alive* & *ymca*
thats it, and i need about 3 more songs!! (link)
Here's a lot of 70's songs -- http://www.foxmobilemusic.com/(70's).htm


okay you know in that song "cupid's chockehold" by the gym class heroes? there's this one line in the chorus "i never seem to get a lot"

does that have any sexual inferences? what do they mean by that?

even if you aren't sure, just answer anyway cause i'm just curious and i'm not a mean rater :] (link)
Well, this could be either one of these two things -- he doesn't get a lot of girlfriends (mentioned in song), or he doesn't sleep with enough girls.


this guy i think likes my because he stares at me in class and its not the senior i was talking about this is a guy my own age but he has a girlfriend and acts like he is biosexual but i dont know what i should do? (link)
I think you should talk to him more often, and get to know him. Hang out with him frequently, and be sure to really show an interest in this guy. By interest, I do not mean flirting or stepping over any friend boundaries -- I simply mean to show an interest in getting to know him as a person. The more you know about him, and he knows about you, the more comfortable the two of you will become.

Be sure not to step over any friend boundaries, because he does have a girlfriend. But by getting to know him, and you two becoming closer -- he'll consider you a good friend. Good friends are the best for relationships.


you can see my ribs im even 5lbs over. is that bad im not anorexic im not skinny im normal but closer to over than under. is there sumthing wrong its like really noticeable so i dont even wear bikinies. how do i make it go down? or can i make them go down? someone said you could. (link)
As long as you're healthy, then this is completely normal. Being as a lot of girls ribs show, not horribly, but enough to where they are visible. Something that may help you is to do crunches and sit-ups on a daily basis -- just be sure not overwork yourself with the exercises.

No, I'm sorry, you cannot make them go down. The only thing I can think of is to put on some weight, but you say you're at a normal weight -- so that may not be a very good idea. As I mentioned before, do some sit-ups and crunches daily and it should help you. :)


so i like this guy...and we're kinda friends...like we talk online and stuff...but his computer broke...and i we were messaging yesterday..but idk..in person we barely ever talk...and i want to get closer to him and i know that i have to talk to him in person..but i just don't know what to say...i mean like even online and messaging..he ususally doesnt start conversations and he doesnt usually sound too interested...like one word answers..so how can i get closer to him? and if i talk to him in person..what should i say? (link)
I think you should ask him to hang out with you, once his computer gets fixed, or you could call him or go to his house if you have his number/address. You two could go to the movies, out to eat or whatever else you think would be fun for the two of you, to do together.

Start talking to this guy on a daily basis, even if its the smallest thing. The more you talk and hang out, the more comfortable the two of you will become with each other. Doing these two things will ultimately bring the two of you closer, and maybe even progress things to being more than friends!


ok any way i am not his friend but how can we become friends? (link)
You can become friends with a guy (or anyone) by talking to him on a daily basis, even if it's the littlest thing. Ask him to hang out with you frequently, and see how things progress. This should lead to a good friendship.


i can not flirt with this other guy who i thinks likes me because he has a girlfriend.so what should i do to get him to know i do not like him that kind of way? (link)
Don't flirt with him, or cross any friend boundaries. Being as he does have a girlfriend, you don't want to step on anyone's toes. So just treat him as you would any other of your guy friends, who you only want as friends. And if he makes any moves towards you -- reject them, and tell him you only want to be friends with him, and nothing more.


look i am asking you what i should do about this guy i used to like that i think likes me because he stares at me but he has a girlfriend and its not the senior i was saying that i like. and i need help to be able to talk to guys i like which i dont understand because i can talk to guys but not these this senior. what shoul i do? (link)
Oh, okay, and I already answered this question. So again, I'm quite confused at what you don't know how to do. Flirt with him?

Once you've deleted everything to the trash can on your computer, and then deleted everything from the trash can, is it PERMINATLY gone from your computer? Like, people can't find it after you've deleted it from the trash and everything? Please let me know ASAP! (link)
Yes, it's off your computer for good -- that is, unless you restore your computer. Then, it will come back if it's close to the restore point (if someone decides to restore your computer). If you know you're not going to be restoring it for a long time, then you have no problems and it will be permantely gone. By the way, if you want to delete your browsing history (this will not come back, through restore points), you can you go into your Internet Options, and click "Delete Browsing History."


I love to go to boy scouts(yes, I'm a girl). My father usually takes me to some random stuff. One time there was this mystery outing thing. We first went to this one place. I was acting shy, and a boy came up and talked to me. We hung out the rest of the night. The next day my dad took me back, and we hung out again. The last day of the event, my dad took me back. But his father was there for the first time, and his father is mean. He didn't hang out with me till the end cause he got in trouble. I got his email and emailed him. He told me dad to tell me to stop. I got really mad and promised to never talk to him again. I saw him later at another boy scout thing. I think he sensed i was mad, caused he stayed away from me, and talked to my dad. I think he thought that I was going to go over to my dad. The day went on and we didn't talk. Then, one of the dads made us ride toghether in a car. We started talking again, and when we left, he told me bye(and not my dad). I think I'm in love, but the problem is that he is a 9th grader, and I'm in 6th. I know he likes me, he has told people, and he is a total flirt. Do you think we will ever be together? (link)
Well, this depends on many factors really. If his dad is mean, he might not let you two be together. So that could be a potential problem. Also, the grade difference and age difference are much different, so that could come into play, too. However, you say that he likes you so that's very good. My only concern is that his dad doesn't seem to keen. So I'm honestly, not sure how you two will be together -- unless his dad has a change of heart.

You could talk to this guy, and let him know how you're feeling (that you like him). And see if he wants to date you, or if he wants to stay friend, etc.

Good luck!


look great advice but i am only a sophmore and i am really shy with doing things like that.so give me advice how to talk to neal i mean oh no. (link)
Would you like to give me some details? I'm sorry, but I don't know what question you asked, or that I answered. Honestly, I don't know what you're talking about.


Whats it mean to be down-to-earth? I mean, I hear people say it all the time but I'm not clear of what it means.. sorry, I know it isnt really an advice question. (link)
Here is the definition of "down-to-earth" --

http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/down-to-earth


OK, i am kind of short, like 5'1 or something(if that much) and i weigh 95 pounds. I know that's not overweight, but i have this stupid little pouch thingy and it makes me feel fat. How do i get rid of that wothout dramatic weight loss? Just exercise? (link)
No, that's not fat at all. Perfect weight for your height, really. Most of us have that little "pouch" there, but crunches and sit-ups can help you get rid of it. I would start out with about thirty of them, either daily or every other day. If you're not used to doing them, you may want to do less.


13/Female
A couple years ago I had this BFF and we did everything together, we were really close. I dont know what happened but we arent frinds anymore, now she has this ONE best friend that is moving away. I feel really bad for her and I cant help it but I feel like I want to be her friend again so I can be there for her. Is that the right thing to do or would I just be starting a whole other mess of a frindship?
Thanks
-Hal (link)
Actually, I think that's a really good idea to befriend her again. I would meet up with her, and have a talk with her. That you want you two to be friends again, and you miss hanging out with her, talking to her, etc.

I bet she feels the same way, but is afraid to talk to you and tell you how she feels. So I definitely recommend talking to her, and having a "heart-to-heart."

Good luck! :)


Okaay so my friend is such a flirt! its so annoying she will flirt with every freaking guy even when she has a boyfriend! ARGGHHH.. i have told her what she does all the time but she doesn't really care, or she gets mad at me for saying that. any advice?

:[ (link)
I'm a flirt myself, but I am in general -- not even really on purpose. However, you have already talked to her about this, so talking to her again probably isn't going to help. I would say, if you still want to be her friend, you'll have to respect her ways -- even if you don't agree with them.

You could tell her about what flirting too much with all the guys can do to her reputation, that may help you realize. And what it would do to her boyfriend (when/if she has one), knowing she still flirts with other guys, besides him. This could help her see the light, and start to change her ways.


Hi, I go to bed at 10, and wake up at 6:30
is it safe to leave a tampon in? (link)
I wouldn't trust a tampon, going to sleep. I recommend using a pad instead, because they're more long lasting and you have a better chance of not bleeding through. Just be sure to change it as soon as you wake up.




look at this person's question.

http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=480811

i have that same problem. like. on my vagina. its not big and baggy. but like. its a little bag kind of, like, maybe an inch long?
is it really normal?
& what does going commando mean? (link)
Yes, this is completely normal and going "commando" means not wearing any underwear.


When I went to see if I could be a moderator the last question said


Have you been a updated your column in the last week?
No. Your last update was Monday February 26 2007, 6:36 pm

but i've been on just about EVERY single day
what does it meannn ? (link)
People seem to think that "updating" your column, means being on Advicenators daily, or once a week -- so you're not alone. However, the meaning is answer questions once per week.


i have a couple dark mustache hairs around my mouth. what would the best way to get rid of them - pluck, cut or die? if dying is the best way, what kind of dye can i use? and what should i do about my happy ttrail? (link)
This depends on whether or not you're a guy or a girl. So I'll give you answers for both.

If you're a guy:
*Shave the mustache, and you could wax and/or shave your stomach.

If you're a girl:
*Do not shave your upper lip hair, wax it. It's painful, but not as painful as plucking for hours.
*If you want to bleach the hair, you can buy it specially for upper lip hair, at your local drugstore.
*Wax your stomach, rather than shaving. It will leave awful stubble for a girl, and you'll have to it daily if you shave. So waxing it your best bet, unless you want to bleach the hair on your stomach (follow same instuctions as upper lip hair).

Sally Hansen has a new spray-off hair removal -- that's painless!http://www.sallyhansen.com/bd/spray-off_hr.cfm
