about




My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.

I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!

Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.

Q: you gave me really good advice on a last question so i am asking you another one!
ok, now the question.
i really like this boy who is in my grade (i am 14/f) he flirts with me a whole lot and i flirt back. we hang out a lot because we go to a really small school and the same church. our parents are close, too. he has been in a lot of long-term relationships and i am looking for one because i haven't dated in about a year. we liked eachother a while back but never got together. our parents have the same rule about not calling and going out and stuff like that. i really want him to make the first move, but i haven't had great luck with boys before. (only 1 boyfriend, a year ago exactly) this boy is really sweet and my friends say we would be the "cutest couple ever" but i doubt we would be. i mean, we would be cute together but not the cutest ever. should i take the initiative to ask him out or just flirt a whole lot and hope he makes the first move? and any advice to help me get his attention (but not the wrong kind of attention just for him to see me as girlfriend material) would be helpful too! i am a huge tom-boy if that helps any! thanks in advance! i'll rate a 5!

A: Well first off I'd like to say that it doesn't really matter whether people think you're a cute couple or not. Often times, "cute couples" are the ones that don't last very long. As long as you two share a few common interests and are interested in eachother's uncommon interests, then you're set.

Just be his friend, laugh with him, and don't be afraid to let him know you like having a good time. Don't try too hard, you don't want to come off as slutty. Also, most importantly: BE 100% YOURSELF!

If your parents share a mutual agreement on dating and the like, just wait until you're old enough to date. If he's worth the wait, he'll stick around.

If you've got any more questions, feel free to ask me specifically!
