A STAR IS BORN >>> My name is Ashley and I am 21 years old. I'm a college student studying journalism and creative writing. In here, you can ask me about anything. I've always been the girl my friends go to for advice. Then it was people all over online. They say that I know how to help them, so I figured I'd use it to my advantage and start a column. *With beauty made to be seen, she is America's queen*
I love to compete in beauty pageants. I plan to run for Miss Indiana next year and hopefully win that title to go on to compete for either Miss America or Miss USA, so be watching out for me! Doing pageants has also been starting to get me into modeling. I've had a few offers here and there, but I'm not sure if it's what I would want to do yet, but I guess I'll just wait and see after I see more what's it's like.
I have a passion for writing. Poetry, songs, short stories, etc. I have been writing poetry since I can remember, literally. My mom has a writing talent as well, so I assume I got it from her. I'd love to eventually write full time for a magazine, like in the movie 13 Going on 30. That would be awesome!
I enjoy volunteering for nonprofit organizations, charities, and charity related events. I am a member of volunteermatch.org, which is a great website for people interesting in helping out people in need.

If you want to know more about me, you can visit my blog on xanga. I used to blog on myspace but not anymore because I had a few stalkers and too many people read my myspace, so I post my blogs at xanga now, so you can check that out if you want. I also have more photos if anyone wants to see, just ask.

advice
Ok, so I have always hated my highschool, and thought that everyone in it was a shallow dimwit! But I recently got advice to try to get to now some people, mingle & be social, and maybe Iäll start liking it more. Right, so I did. I started talking to these two guys, who are best friends, pretty popular and pretty much WANTED by every girl in school, but I just wanted to be friends, right..so I started talking to these guys for the first time yesterday, and it was just for 15 minutes, helping them study, but I felt an immediate attraction to both of them, one of them is outgoing, loud, charming..and oh so popular, and the other one is also pretty popular (because he's hott) but really shy, quite, and looks pretty insecure. Now, the thingh is the're both BEST FRIENDS, and I would never start flirting with two bff that could end up terrible! But I know I'm gonna start liking these guys, so I would like to decide WHICH ONE to like, and just go for him, flirt with him, instead of with both of them, because what if they both end up liking me..that could be terrible!! So how do you decide which one to like? And also, what would be hard is that they both like different type of girls, so its better to just focus on one of the guys..15/f thank you!
I know what it's like to be in your situation because lots of guys who are friends with each other like me and I end up having to choose between them.
I think that since you just met these guys, you don't really know them that well yet. Right now, you should just focus on getting to know them both as people and as friends, while keeping your crush for each of them to yourself, for now anyways. After a while, you might start liking one more than the other. So just wait a bit and get to know them first, and then if you start feeling for one over the other, then you might want to try flirting with him. Good luck!
So I have this friend I've had for a couple of years, and today we were in his room and he got a bit "touchy-feely" and kept asking for hugs and stuff. Usually he's not like this at all. Anyway, soon as I was about to leave he went to kiss me on the cheek.. and I kissed him on the lips.. not knowing he was just going for the cheeks. lol. We kissed for about 20 seconds, then I broke it off... and said goodbye and went home. Well I feel really weird about it now, partly because I enjoyed it and yet he's been a friend for a long time. I don't regret it though. But I'm the type of person who takes kissing someone pretty seriously.
I know this kind of thing is pretty common, and I shouldn't let it affect things between us. I don't really want a relationship right now. However.. not sure whether we should just let this go, put it behind us.. or whether we should do the whole "Friends with benefits" thing.
Thanks for your help.
I think that friends with benefits hardly ever works out. Someone always gets attached, jealous, heartbroken, etc. And do you even know if that is what he wants? You might want to just straight up ask him how he feels about you, before you lead him on thinking that you want a relationship with him.
Okay so I met this guy at my cousins wedding reception two weeks ago. I had a really nice conversation with him and found out he has a good job and he similar values as me. When I got him alone he acted like a perfect gentleman and said all the right things.
My main concerns however are that he is 6 years younger than me (he is 22 and I am 28). I think he's still in his party phase. I'll let you be the judge. Well earlier he and his friends went upstairs to the bar in the hotel to pick up girls. He came downstairs and was bragging to everyone that he got the number off the hottest chick in the bar. Also he was hanging out with a guy who made a rude comment about an overweight girl.
I'm debating about whether or not to ask my cousin for his number (she gets back from her honeymoon tonight). I just wanted to ask your opinions first if you think he's relationship material.
Also before I forget he lives about 5 hours away from me.
Ugh! I wouldn't go for him!
You could probably date him lightly, but I know his type...he's most likely not willing to be in a real full blow relationship with just one person, especially since you two are five hours apart, he's probably not going to want to commit. Even if you did date him, it sounds like it would pose an issue with you being more mature than he is. I'm 21, and pretty mature for my age as well, and I'm tired of dating the typical early 20's college male who acts like that guy does. Which is why I'm not dating anyone under 24. Anyways, unless he drops hints of wanting a relationship, I wouldn't pursue him. You could probably still be friends with him though, and maybe if he matures in the next couple years, who knows, he could be boyfriend material by then.
Do u think its to soon to give my number? I had met this guy at a party and I was attracted to him, I talked to him on myspace for the first time and I invited him to a party and gave him directions.......I also gave him my number incase he needs directions.
No, it's not too early. Actually I think that is about right.
ok. i know this is a weird question. but everyone at my school just assumes im like a great dancer. but i have no clue how to dance. and a dance is coming up. and idn what to do. ppl are like...it just comes natural but idn. i would like to know how to you know?
Well the truth is, it does just come natural. Most people are just like you, and believe they don't really knw what to do at first. But you just move your body to the beat and after a while, you get the hang of it. It's a high school dance. No one is going to be expecting you to dance like Beyonce. But if you're that self concience about it, practice in your room. Put in a CD or listen to your iPod if you have one, and just pretend like you are at the dance and watch yourself in the mirror. Pay attention to the dancers in music videos on TV too, that might help.
my boyfriend just confessed to me another girl kissed him and he didn't stop her. I was really mad at first, but then I realized i have no right to be. You see, we're in a internet relationship and not meeting till late this year. I guess it's understandable that if someone in the flesh comes along and kisses you, you're not going to stop them. I think I would do the same too, admittedly. Everyone I've spoken to though thinks I should be madder than I am, because he cheated on me. I guess i'm a pretty laid-back person. We care about each other a lot, but I understand why he did it. I feel I should be mad at him for cheating though. I still want to go out with him, but everyone is telling me to break up with him. What should I do? And am I being too nice on him?
Thanks.
Cheating is cheating, and if he's going to do it now, he could do it again, especially after how he's seen easily you are forgiving him for it. Maybe it's not that big of a deal to you because you haven't met him yet, so it's almost like he's not really real to you. Of course you know he's real, but there's the whole factor of meeting someone that makes it seem even more real. But when you meet and if you really start to like or even love him, the reality might set it that he cheated on you and I can see you hurting all over again, and possibly even more intensely than now. And you'll be worried if he's going to do it again, as you should be. If you want things to work out, you'll have to be firm with him that you don't like him kissing other girls, unless you both decide to not be exclusive bf/gf until you actually meet, that way he won't be compelled to cheat. I think that's a good idea anyways, because in my opinion, you should at least meet a guy and get to know him in person before you go and call him your boyfriend. I've done the internet relationships too, and believe me what I say that people aren't always what they seem.
