ask SMINT

I am SMINT! I am a pretty strange person from Chicago, Illinois, the suburbs anyway.

I'm pretty involved with the music world. I like most types of music that I hear, except that I DESPISE Coldplay. My favorite bands would have to be Audioslave, Led Zeppelin, Jet, and CREAM. I adore Cream. I also really like Phillip Glass, even though he is a little odd. I play the violin, and I'm starting guitar.

I've never been in a serious love-relationship, but I've seen a lot of my friends go through various relationships, and I usually give pretty good advice on this topic. Like I just said, I do have friends. Surprising, isn't it? I haven't had a real not-talk-to-each-other-for-days fight since 6th grade, so I have a general idea about how things are. Mind you, I'm still a serious bitch when I want to be. But I get over things pretty quickly, which is a good thing.

Well... I suppose that's it!

When one flaunts there new relationship all over the internet, I.E Bob is so hot. I've never been so happy. He's absolutely amazing. I'm so lucky. Like, wow. He's so hot. He's so hot. Like, everywhere...is it safe to think that the person doing this is insecure about the relationship, and is just trying to prove to everyone how great it is, when maybe it's not all that wonderful? (link)
actually, yeah. I've seen this happen a couple of times, and this very well could be the case.


I need help my crush does not have a crush on me what should i do? (link)
continue living? Really, it isn't the end of the world. Tons of people go through this, just move on.


I have been divorced for almost a year, and have been seeing a guy from work for almost a year, but used to he would always want to be around me, touch me etc., now i almost have to force him to do anything. he says he still has the same feelings for me and the thing is that when we get into an arguement he always tells me to shut up, that I am f-ing stupid, or go to He@@. He always opologizes and I know he has had a really rough childhood, both parents dying, his dad shot his mom right in front of him and his grandad used to beat him, I can deal with thie emotional rollercoaster with him anymmore, should i try to work it out or kick him out?????

if he's swearing at you at all, insulting you, ect, he doesn't deserve to be around you. A rough childhood really isn't much of a reason to be a jerk to you, the person he supposedly loves the most.


Everybody in my school has already had like 10 boy/girl friends... I've had none. Thats right... zip, zero, zilch! They all say how great it is to be hooked up, and they always have someone to dance with at activity nite. I have nobody!

Sincerely,

WRONG! You don't need a boyfriend. No one does.


I've gone out with this kid twice and both times the reason for the break up was we were basically sick of each other. Unfortunately, we both keep bouncing back to each other. Consequently I'm pretty obsessed with this one kid.

Recently, however, he's taken to generally ignoring me when I'm around. This hurts me, not because I like him per se at the moment, but because I miss our friendship like whoa. I say hi to him whenever I see him and everything, but I don't want to call him (the chase and all that jazz). But I miss him so much. I've let too many friendships die this way. Advice? (link)
You definitly don't need him if he's ignoring you. He clearly doesn't have the maturity to date, and no offense, but neither do you. I sure as hell know I'm not mature enough. Most people aren't, infact.


I met a guy in a chat room....We have a lot in common and a lot of the same interests. I am 15 and he is 37...he looks way younger. I have been hanging out with him after school and at the mall. I want to date him. I am very attracted to him and he is SO nice and sweet to me. He takes me to lunch, etc. Should I get involved with him even though we have a huge age difference? I don't think it makes a difference. (link)
WOAH... that's just plain odd. Legally, I don't even think you can get married or even date. You certainly can't do anything, if you catch my drift. You met him in a chat room. He could be putting up an act so he can get you alone and you know... rape you. It sounds really dangerous to me. Most older men don't look to a high schooler for romance.


If you're too shy to ask someone out in person is it creepy to write them a note? (link)
I don't think so. This should be fine, most people don't like being confronted in person. (I know I don't! Even if it's someone I really like.)


Lately I developed a liking towards a guy friend in my dorm. Every time it was just the two of us together, or just the two of us and perhaps one other close friend, he would act very solicitous towards me--he would do small things such as put his arm around my shoulder, hold my books for me, etc. I have also had many wonderful conversations with him in his room and elsewhere. So I was hopeful until this week, when I found out that he has asked another girl to a date event and has feelings towards her. Now I wonder if he felt something towards me but was discouraged by my inaptitude in flirting--I have difficulty playing that whole game of hinting and whatnot. It's a foreign language to me. (link)
sounds like a real jerk. He's definitly not worth your time. He sounds like a natural flirt to me.


I realize I am a dumb male, but I am trying to do the best I can wth it. There is a girl I like, but due to several things, I can't ask her out or tell her how I feel for a while. That bugs me, but it's not what I'm writing about. We're getting to be pretty good close friends (which I feel is better for the long run anyway), and she's really cool. She's also big into feminism. I've always sort of considered myself a feminist, but never really thought about it too much. So now I'm wondering if I really am becoming more of a feminist due to her influence, or if I'm just sort of wearing it on my sleeve so she'll like me more. I don't like to do things half-heartedly, I feel it would be unfair to myself and to feminism in general. So am I really a feminist? (link)
this happens a lot in relationships. Just think to yourself if she really loves me, she won't care that I'm not a huge feminist. And if she does, she's not worth my time. Maybe it's also because of her influence. This happens a lot too.
