BIOGRAPHY:
My name is Carrie, and I just recently turned 25. I've been told that I give excellent advice, so I created this column last year with the intention of helping as many people as possible. Although I do believe I succeeded, I ultimately turned my back on this column when I discovered just how cruel and thankless some people can be. Almost one year later a lot has changed. I've gained a whole new perspective on life and the world around me. I'm much more positive, sympathetic, and willing to listen when people truly need help. So now I've decided to come back and focus my attention on the individuals who are truly in need of advice.
ADVICE:
I'm very genuine when it comes to giving advice. I try to be sympathetic to the person asking the question, but I don't ever sugar coat things. I've learned quickly that many people who ask for help don't really want advice - they want someone who will say what they want to hear. Sorry, but you're not going to get that with me. I'm not here to make friends (if a friendship happens though, yay for me!). You'll always get the truth from me whether you like it or not. While the truth may sting just a bit to begin with, it will absolutely set you free in the long run. If you want to be lied to, please seek advice from somebody else.
CONTACT INFO:
If you like my advice and have additional questions for me, click on the link right underneath this profile that says "Ask Me A Question." If you leave your follow-up question for me in my feedback, I have no way of replying to it. Please use the link. Also, I have an e-mail address where people can get in touch with me if they need to. Feel free to use it.
IMPORTANT:
This may be a hobby in some people's eyes, but I don't like it when people waste my time regardless of whatever it is I'm doing, which in this case, is providing a free service out of the kindness of my heart. So please don't ask me stupid questions, and please make an effort to type sensibly so that I can read and understand your question. I know there are a lot of young people on this site, but that's no excuse to type like you're brain dead. Proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation is highly appreciated with me. The more intelligent your question is, the more intelligent of a response you'll get from me.
ABOUT ME:
Here are some facts about me. I like pop music (especially Madonna). I like horror movies (especially Scream). I like to chat (on MSN). I love to write (poetry, screenplays, short stories). I love shopping (Best Buy). I'm a gamer (I'm better than a guy - Xbox 360 all the way). I have a MySpace (Click "Ask Carrie" for the link). I love my doggies (I have 2). I'm not a bitch (...well, sometimes). I love to laugh (and sometimes I pee a little when I do). It happens.

thanks for telling me but i am confident in who i am and what i look like. i was just exploring so dont say "Guys DO like confidence, which you say you are, but if you were you wouldn't have to ask questions like this. So regardless of how confident you perceive yourself" that to me. I mean i could have given you a one but i gave you a 5 because other than THAT derrogitory sentance it was good advice

I appreciate ur advice, but he has a medical condition and that's why he doesn't remember. he doesn't even remember his own birthday sometimes. and he does call me like the day after and stuff to say that he did remember after, but has a memory problem and he takes medication for it and he's also ADD

Thank you for being honest (even if it really wasn't the answer I hoped for lol).
You're right.
A few nights ago, I was thinking it over, and I came to the same conclusion that he doesn't like me (but for different reasons).

Thank you for the veritable essay lol. And although everything you say is registering with me as useful, I have trouble believing it. See, the problem is that people have flirted with me for their own devices, or for kicks, or whatever. But not for good reasons. And I have spent all my life dealing with verbal abuse from my school 'mates' and even my peers (in this case teachers). So when you say i'm not inferior to others, everything that has been done to me in my relatively short life works against this.
I do appreciate all your kind words though, especially the adorable thing lol. I cant see it myself, but then sometimes whats staring back at us from the mirror is blind to us.
Thank you again :)

Ah. Totally my fault that I omitted a few details. He's 19 next month, and he stopped talking to me after a month or so. But thank you, regardless.

Don't think the columnmist understood my question well. I never thought the problem is her. It is me. but instead of asking to get STD tests which we all do these days and or in additon we use condoms if sleeping with other women, she failed to address my real issue.

okay that was great advice, but it's not that i don't want it to happen I just don't want our relationship to lie only in hooking up. Also, he is an amazing person and he always tries not to pressure me but it does come out that way sometimes. It's not like he is trying to get in my pants all the time. Thanks though, I get the point of what your saying.
