Is it possible to change certain characteristics that you don't like about yourself? Recently there have been things that I've done that I normally wouldn't do that have made me and my bf get into fights. They're little fights, and we always end up resolving them, but in the end I feel like a complete idiot for making such a big deal out of certain things. I want to change the way I react to things, and the way I think about certain things. Do you think that's possible?? Any suggestions? (link)
i think the only thing is just when you feel yourself getting to that point wher you get mad jsut step back and breather for a sec. im gunna sound like a total loon but juts count to ten or tell him you need a sec and leave the room. sounds stupid but it really works. just amke sure you'r changing because you dont liek the way you are not because youre boyfriend doesn't, because very rarely is a boy worth changing yourself for.


There is this guy that ive likes for awhile now and he is a junior and i am a fresman.(highschool) He is one of the sweetest guys i have ever met and we get along really well. He called me and asked me if i wanted to go to the movies with him the on the weekend and i said yes. then i saw him two days after that and he said he really liked me but he just wanted to be friends because he thought about it and the fact that im two years younger then him scares him because he doesnt think i want a relationship. Its been a week since all of that has happened and now he doesnt hug me when he sees me and he doesnt go out of his way to talk to me. i still REALLY like him and i want to tell him id be ready for a relationship but i dont want to seem desprite and i dont want to bug him about it. should i just try to forget about him or what?

thanks for the help :o)

i think what you need to do is sit down and talk to him about what he thinks a real relationship is, and if it is somthing you're ready for then tell hhim that. if his idea of a real relationship however involves sex and other things you may not be ready for then just forget about it because i can garuntee you there will be other guys who you will like just as much if not more who will be better for you if thast the case.


I'm going out w/ the greatest guy ever, but unfortunately he lives like, 45 mins. away. so anyway, there's this kid, matt, at school who's always kinda had this crush on me. well 2day in school, i hugged him like usual, cuz we're such good friends, and he gave me a kiss on the cheek. i just wanna know if this is ok, cuz i would never wanna cheat on my bf.
thx

a kiss on the cheek is fine especially if its just a peck. its when he kisses you on the lips and you kiss back taht you ahve a problem. cheek kissing is no big deal. i mean come on french people do it all the time and tehres nothing wrong with them. ok, fine bad example. jussst kidding.


i like this kid but idk if he likes me we flirt sumtimes but he seems like he flirts w. alot of people and i dont kno wut 2 do ne suggestions? (link)
it seems like the simplest question but its not. my best advice is just to be straight up about it. its no good playing games. if he likes you then awesome and if not well then its more time you havent wasted on some stuid guy when you could be out finding prince charming.


Hey Yall wow i have a problem im caught in between to guys that are absuoly awesome i love and adore! i wish i could only be with both of them and i cant live without either both! there both perfect one i wish i could be with every seconod of mi life and the other is in mi midn heck i feel that way about both of them theiir absoulty great i dont kno whut to do soo please im askin yall if you can help then plz help b.c i cant live without either i LOVE THEM1 (link)
you cant truly love both of them because that by defenition is not love. you must as lame as this sounds sit down adn really thik about the things taht you really like about each of them and then decide which one you truly love and which one would make a better friend. sure it might hurt him a little yet, if the one you dont pick truly cares about you he'll understand and want only for you to be happy.


My friend (alex) likes this guy matt. Well there on the same sports team, and they are somewhat friends, but alex likes matt. She wants to take it to the next level (going out) but is kinda of nervous about getting his number. I dont know what to tell her so i figured id ask a complete stranger. Please help my friend, she really desirves a nice guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (link)
just tell her to go for it. have her strike up a conversation with the guy talking about this cool website she found and have her ask for his screen name to show him the site and what not. getting a sn is easier because if u get flustered and dont know what to sa all you have to do is say brb and he'll never know the better that way she can work her way up to the phone and not worry about being nurvous. best way to work your way up to the phone? have a conversation online with him butv tell him your too tired to type and ask if he wants to call instead. my friend and i have done it a million times and let me tell you they nevr know the better.
p.s. send me a message to my inbox telling me how it goes and tell youre friend i say good luck!


I am a very flirtacious person. I flirt and mess around with all my friends who are guys. My boyfriend tends to get slightly jealous when I flirt with the guys we hang around with and even though he knows it doesn't mean anything, he still gets annoyed. I understand this and we talked about it but I can't help my personality. How can I be less flirtacious? (link)
just try to be mineful of what you're doing. keep reassuring your boyfriend that it means nothing and that HES the one you like not someone else. just odnt get mad at him because hes a little bit jealous a lot jealous is bad but a little bit just shows taht he really likes you and dosnt want to loose you.


i am in love with a girl, she used to like me but she for some reason "stopped"...i found out recently that she snuck out with her friend and two guys and went somewhere and was making out with this guy for like 2 hours and i thought me and her had something, she said he was really nice and they just clicked and hes a sophomore at my school, although me and her "clicked" supposedly and i was nicer to her than any guy could ever imagine being to her...she told me not to be mad at her, hate her, or stop talking to her because that would be fucked up...please dont tell me to get over it and everything...ive tried and theres more to it but im sure youll get bored reading this long page...ill rate a 5 if you give me a helpful answer...WHAT DO I DO!?!?!?! (link)
i've been going through the same thing and everyone told me just what they told you about giving up. but if you really love her stick it out. shes just going through a weird phase trust me no girl wnats to send all her time hooking u. as her out and go do somthing fun because the second you gte a girl to laugh or smile her real smile...well thats the second you've catured her heart.


Does any guy here have bad luck with relationships??? Cuz i am one of em. Ive had a g/f during the summer, not anymore we where way to busy and couldnt do it anymore and plus she lived a lil while away and then i tried with another girl and she just kept blowing me off and then with another girl who never likes to call bak. I dunno i must be in the worst month with girls or something and no its not that im not confident in myself or ne thing like that or physical looks or anything. Just a normal guy looking for a girl. I dunno if ur havin troubles the same way, just leave a reply on how its happening with you. Wouldnt mind to help ya out or u help me out. Aight thx. appreciate it. -TiM- (link)
i have troubles but not with girls with guys. for now im just letting time go by as it pleases. spend some time with your friends or try somthing new like a new sort or club youre bound to meet someone cool there. in the meantime jsut relax. the last thing a girl wnats is a guy who looks like hes trying too hard.


I meet this guy at my best friends school dance. We danced and talked, and he seemed pretty cool so i gave him my number. Well a day later he texted me on my phone to say hi and to just see what i was doin that night. We haven't actually talked on the phone yet, but it has only been 3 days since i met him. Should i call him, or wait to see if he calls me?

And if i do call, what should i say??????? (link)
call him. dont do any of that game laying wiat to see if he calls me junk it only runs the risk of messing things up. hes ovbiously interested because he texted you so give him a ring if only just to chat or invite him to a football game at your school or somthing just be natural and teh same way you were at teh dance.d ont try to change yourself because what he liked was who u were. good luck!


my boyfriend always calls me sayin how some girl kissed him today at school but if i just say my friend likes my butt he freaks out and i dont care about him flirting cz we dont go to the same school so im not there to do something..anyways i wanna tell him on halloween i was holdin this guy i just met hands but i dont want him to freak out..how can i tell him and ask why he freaks out about me doin the smallest things with my friends and me not doin nothin about him and his???

o yea when he flirts i get jealous but i dont act or say nothin about it..is he tryin to get me jealous? (link)
girl get rid of him! some girl kissed him at school!? sheesh. you can do so much better than that he is a common breed of man known as the attention whore. go with the guy whose hand you held who knows there might just be somthing there. plus you dont wnat to be with a guy who will fly off teh handle everytime you flirt with someone else. flirting is natural and some girls dont even realize they are doing it. but doenst the fact that you wnat to flirt with other guys say that you're not totally into him? find someone who will only flirt with you nad vice versa and then my friend you will truly be happy.


there this guy that i thought i kinda lyk'd but he lyks one of my best friends. It kinda sucks cuz im so use to feeling this way cuz everyone likes my best friend. I dont wanna stop being friends with her because of that cuz thats juss stupid. Well i told this guy that i'd try to help him and my friend be together although it would kinda suck. My friend doesnt really like him lyk tha but still i have a feeling its gunna happen. I dont wanna tell him that i like him cuz im pretty sure he doesnt feel the same way and afterwords it'd juss feel akward... what should i do? (link)
oh man. i have so been there done that. i ended u setting the two of them up and they lasted for a few days and the broke up but who knows whta will hapen with you. all i can say is kudos to you for being such a good friend to him. And to try and find someone else. easier said than done right? but i promise you your rince charming will come and you'll be so much hapier because he'll love YOU and you wont have to worry about being second best.


so far me and my boyfriend have had the PERFECT relationship. we've been going out for 10.5 months and i dont know what to get him for our 1 year anniversary?? what should i get him? do i get him anything?? do i make him something?? if so what?? HELP!! (link)
well you defenatly need to take into consideration what he likes. the best resents are thoughtful ones. get him somthing that represents an inside joke and dont worry about going out of your way and spending a million dollars you''ll just make yourself broke and resent him for taht.


I've liked this one guy, Bob, for a while now. And he said he likes me and all, but he also likes a couple other girls. He told me this maybe a month or two ago, so I'm starting to think that he just likes being liked (because a lot of girls like him). And I'm starting to think that he doesnt really like me, even if he does act like it.

Anyway, I met this other guy, Bill, and I'm starting to really like him. and i heard that he wants to ask me out. but i still like Bob a little bit. even though im getting over him pretty fast.

should i go out with Bill even though I still kind of like Bob? or should i wait until I'm fully over Bob to go out with Bill?

thanks so much (link)
oh i have so been there done that. bob is just an attention whore. go for bill and forget about bob. not as easy as it sounds but just keep spending time with bill trust me it gets easier as time goes on.


my question is that i asked my bf if he looks @ porn he said yeah and he was being porn but like a couple of Months ago he said he only looked at it when he was single but before i was like wow he looks @ that and he said he loves me and shit?? what should i do? (link)
its not a big deal that your boyfriend looks at porn. it wasnt cool of him to lie to you but still hes a guy an dthey have that weird sexual needs thing which personally i think is juts an excuse tehy all made up so they could be perverts but nevermind. like i said to someone else..juts be happy it only porn and hes not off sleeping with some otehr girl.


i need to get advice on my six year relationship, iam very unhappy as i have just found out my partner is texting a girl he dumped me for two years ago,we split up for 3 months i which time he had another relationship, we got back together as i had two of his kids and was pregnant again he told me abort the baby but i dont belive in it so i kept her, he made all my pregnancy a misery and i found out he was texting and phoneing this oter girl, i was sterllised recently an now for the third time i have found out he has been phoneing and texting this other girl, he keeps telling me he loves me but how can i belive him i cant trust him at all, i have three kids he will want custody if we split up so iam trapped (link)
just give him a taste of his own medicine. if he can phone and text other girls then you can phone and text other guys. see what hapens. i'm sure he'll get jealous and then all you have to say is..."see? now you know how i feel."


My Boyfriend and me just had a little fight , well the head cheerleader heard about it and now she's al over my boyfriend and were not even broken up , well we made up and she still wants him , she like bends down in front of him with her cheerleader clothes on or she trys to sit with us and well she drives me crazy , but the thing is my boyfriend dosnt like her and he's the star Quarterback on the football team, and he tells her to back off , is he the good kind of boyfriend every gurl wants? plz help (link)
hes the refect kind of boyfriend especially if hes telling her to back off. shes just making an idiot of herself by being such a slut. if nothing else her stuid behavior will give you and your boyfriend somthing to laugh about at the end of teh day.


I am 15 (almost 16) and I'm a female. There are some guys at school that like me. I know this because they have said it to me or to my best friend. One is a year older than me, and he kinda scares me. He doesn't know what flirting is. He kinda acts as though we are going out right now, but we're not and probably never will. He's always touching me and tries to get me away alone. What should i do about him?
Then there is this other guy. Lets say his name is Joe. Joe is really sweet and he respects me and my boundaries. I've liked him since last year and he just told me that he likes me as well. But, there are a few problems with that. First, I'm not allowed to date til I'm 16 (January), and then there is the guy that I described above. Its like he is trying to get Joe and I farther apart. The first guy is really starting to disturb and scare me. Joe and I like each other a TON, but then there is the other dude. What is your advice for this situation? What would you do to tell the other dude that you're just not interested in him like that? And what should Joe and I do? Thanks in advance.

Signed,
Confused and Weirded Out (link)
as far as teh 1st guy tell him how you fel but be nice about it. just tell him you dont like when he touches you because it makes you uncomfortable. as for joe adn u ignore mr creey and just enjoy yourselves. an dif your not allowed to date then just do group things. parents are stupid and as long as tehres one otehr person they wont susect a thing make just make sure that the people your with are all able to couple off or wont get mad when u and joe start flirting or want to go off alone for a few minutes. then everything should be ok.


I haven't heard from my boyfriend at all since friday. He hasn't called or texted or anything. I've texted him but he hasn't texted back and I called him yesterday but he didn't pick up. I know that he's gone away for the weekend but he would always have his phone on him. I'm getting worried. (link)
if hes away he may have jsut left the phone in the hotel or whtaever or he may have lost it. i'm constently losing mine especially when im in places im not used to being in. also he may have just forgotten his cell phone charger. god knows how many times ive done that. i'm sure everythings fine when he gets back mention taht you've missed him and that you tried to call. see what he says but dont tell him you were all stressed about it..you dont wnat him to think youre too clingy and such.


SO yeah .. there's this guy. I'm not sure what grade he's in. But everytime I am near him ..walking past him or just standing there.. he always turns to look at me. Just stares at me.. dead in the eye..sometimes even smiles.
the thing is .. i know who this guy is. well i know who most of his friends are.
i told one of my friends about him .. "hey theres that 'creepy' guy that always stares at me.. thats him".. and shes like "ohh thats him? I know him!".. and she told me his name..."oh he thinks youre pertty!" and i said "really? how.. why what has he said?" and she said "um, we were in the bus and we saw you walking outside and he asked me 'hey do you think that girl is pretty?'..and I was like yeah." And she said that most likely he didnt just ask if he thought i was pretty because he didnt think i was! u know? Well thing is.. i always see him right.. and I WISH i had the courage to talk to him.
its so cute too.. this past thursday i was going to my 2nd period and there he was coming my direction..with his hair covering his face as he looked at me between the spaces of his hair.. and i moved to the side and i noticed he got nervous because he stopped to let me pass by. I smiled as i kept walking because i thought it was funny.
i would like to get to nkow him.. just talk to him.. man.. i need help...

thing is.. most of hsi friends KNOW ME (i dont know all theirnames).but they know who I am... and most of their CHICK friends dont like me because of this girl that started rumors about me because the guy that she liked.. liked me instead.(which i never went out with .. yet)..
i cant explain myself.. PLEASE HELP

[14 yr female gr10] (link)
well there are a few ways to do it.
theres the sneaky way...nest time you see him and hes staring at you drop somthing (make it look accidential) and when he helps you pick em up say "thanks i'm...." and introduce yourself.
not exactly fool proof but whatever.
or you could have that friend of yours introduce the two of you.
or if all else fails just make eye contact smile and say hi. trust me doll its a highly underrated appraoch.
good luck!!
