about

After break that lasted like a year, I'm back.


Um yeah, anyways.
My name is Amanda.
I am 16.
I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability, but be warned, I am brutally honest.
So I might come off as being mean, but sometimes the truth hurts.
I'm not saying that to be mean, because I'm really a nice person.

And if you plan on sending me a question in my inbox, please use proper English.
I probably will not respond if you type LyKe DiS or IN ALL CAPS or if y00 cnt spl if yur lyfe dpended on it.

advice

hey. well, i'm 14/f. and this year i'm going to be going into high school. and i'm really scared about being around all of the older kids and stuff, but thats not what i'm most scared about. i'm scared about sex. this probably sounds really stupid to some ppl, but i don't care. i really want to wait until marraige, but there is so much pressure in high school, i don't want to do something i know i don't want to do. i mean, i don't even know if i'll have a boyfriend or anything, but if i do, i want him to be someone who won't pressure me. how can i have good judgement. please help. and any other good advice about high school will be much appreactiated. thanks a bunch!!!!

So many people portray high school like its some place where theres drugs and sex everywhere and that you can't escape it.
I just finished my freshman year of high school and theres really not as much pressure as a lot of people say there is.
I'm friends with alot of upperclassmen, and not ONCE was I pressured for anything-Drugs, alcohol, sex, anything.
You just have to make friends with the right people. As long as you hang out with the right group of people, and in your case, get the right boyfriend, there's hardly any pressure for anything.
Especially for freshman, in my school, the greatest length upperclassmen went is just complaining about" how "annoying" freshman are.
You really have nothing to worry about.
Your freshman year will fly by! :]

Me and my gf havent exactly been getting along we cant talk much it neva works, we hug sometimes, and we dont do anything else either because there was a problem and we said we'd work it out but obviously not and im a shy guy and i get pretty depressed often and today one of her friends(also friend of mine) told me my gf wants me to stop me getting into depressive moods and make more of an effort to make the first moves or she will dump me. And then her friend also told me that she also liked another 2 guys and she things my gf is just using me.
But when i was 1st goin out with her i have neva been as happy and im not sure i wanna give up on her and thus lose that happiness.
What do u think? am i just being stupid?
and if u think i should dump her please tell me.
How?

Well, since things seem like their not working out, just call her up one day and just say, "(her name), I don't think things are working out and I think things would be better if we didn't go out anymore"

But you can't really say that its her that's making you totally happy. Because if she is the only thing that makes you happy, then what's the point of doing anything else besides being with her?

I hope this helped.

I am totally in love with my boyfriend. I want to be with him all the time, and usually we hang out on a daily basis. The thing is, I also want to hang out with my three really close friends. I think they are starting to get mad at me because I'm starting to hang out with him more than them. I want to be with them all, and it's awkward when all of us hang out together.. What should I do..? PS- please don't tell me to "balance it out" or anything, I've tried it, and everyone just gets mad!

Hmm..this is one sticky situation..Perhaps you can plan stuff like going to see a movie or something with your 3 close friends on the weekend and then spend the week with your boyfriend. Or maybe you can just take some time off of your boyfriend. Sure he may get mad but he has to understand that you have other friends than him. If he doesn't like it, get rid of him! I mean I'm sure he has a social life outside of spending time with you. Why can't you do the same??

i got a boyfriend and i think my best friend likes him cuz she gets mad when i talk about him. Should i talk to her about it or just let it go. Cuz my boyfriend hates her and she thinks that him and every boy likes her. Should i talk to her or what should i do?¿

You need to talk to her and not make assumptions before you know the facts. Like my mom always says, "Don't ASSUME..it makes an ASS out of U and ME" ha see how ass u and me makes assume. Yeah just because she gets mad when you talk about him, doesn't nessisarily mean that she likes him. Maybe she sees something in him that she doesn't like that you don't see.

I hope this helped =D
