okay well i think i'm in love with this guy i have been with for a little under 2 months. the problem is he never talks to me in person. and everyone says they think he dont like me. but he says he loves me what should i do?!?! love ya. (link)
okay, I think I know who you are, and if I'm right, then you should definitely believe him. If he says he loves you, he probably means it, and he might just be a little nervous about talking to you in person. you can always ask him about the whole thing with everyone saying he doesn't like you. hope i helped .. i/m me if you need more help


What are those so called "love handles"? (link)
Love handles are excess skin or possibly fat in a girl's hip area, usually above where low rise jeans/hip huggers are. hope i helped!


1. well i was wondering if a girl that is 15 turning 16 in 2 months is going out with someone that just turned 25, could that someone go to jail?
2. what if the girl is not a virgin and the cops find out and they try to accuse the boy and she denies it could they file charges???
Thank you! (link)
1. Yes, that someone could go to jail. It is illegal for an adult (someone older than 18) to date a minor (18 or younger) more than two years younger than him/herself. In your case, the someone is about 10 years older, so he can get in a lot of trouble.
2. They can do tests and if they question it tell the truth. The tests can ususally determine who the boy was. And yes, they can always file charges.


Hi, well my names Jen and im 15 and a freshman. In gym class i noticed this boy Matt and he went to my middle school but we never actually talked. But today in gym he said "Hey Jen!" and i dont know i was kind of happy about it. I saw him alot that day and i tried to say hi and smile alot but i know he is extremely shy and everything but he kind of smiled but looked down saying hi. Hes sort of geeky, but i dont think i really care about that but im not sure what to do? Thank you so muchhhh (link)
I think you should become better friends with him. Get to know him and his personality well. If you think you like him, and he has a good personality and nice sense of humor, flirt with him. Hopefully he likes you back and asks you out. You can always give him hints, saying you like him and stuff. Or you could just ask him out yourself. Hope i helped! my s/n is xobubblegum25xo if you need more advice.


I really like this guy at my school, but i know for a fact that he doesnt like me, i want to really ask him out badly but i dont want to be turned down, what should i do? (link)
How do you know for a fact he doesn't like you if he doesn't know? If you want to ask him out, go for it. Just hope he'll say yes. If you get turned down, remember there are tons of other guys out there, and i'm ALWAYS here for you to talk to! my s/n is xobubblegum25xo if you need more help. hope i helped!


im a guy who is shy and i like this girl who is like my best friend and i want to have a bigger relationship with her, what should i do to get her attention? please help!! thanks (link)
I think you should open up to her. She's your 'like best friend', so you should be more open to her than a lot of other people, guys and girls, anyways. You definitely need to flirt with her and be extra kind/caring/nice. Just don't be too much of a sap. Don't be really jerky to her while around your friends, girls hate that. Unless of course she hangs out with you and your guy friends, that could be a different story. You could also tell her straight forward that you like her and want to have a 'bigger relationship' with her. If you need more help my s/n is xobubblegum25xo. hope i helped!


What would you do if the guy you were madly in love with was like your perfect man that you've always dreamed of and then all of a sudden changed? I mean like James has always been the perfect guy for me since I met him! And now all of a sudden hes different what do I do?!?! If your answer helps me out Ill definatly rate you good! (link)
Okay, well first of all, everyone changes, some people a lot more frequently than others. Did James change for the better or worse? I have no clue what his personality used to be like, and how it is now, so if you can add that info I could help you a lot more, because I pretty much know how you feel. you can i/m me on xobubblegum25xo with that information and I'll help you. hope i helped!

P.S. If you still like him even though he changed you should act the same around him if at all possible. I also think you should have a good long talk with him if you feel the need to do so.


im a fourteen year old gurl. i have alot of freinds but ive never had a boyfreind and i think its becuase of my weight i dont understand why guys dont like me just becuase of that one thing im a good person and really does hurt. what should i do to help me? (link)
Okay, first of all, guys at this age can be VERY immature, most of them are, but some aren't. You probably are a great person, but guys are just really jerky and immature at this age. I think you should just wait because eventually a great guy will come along and you'll be happy you waited .. it will be worth the wait. trust me! hope i helped


ok i am 13 and everytime someone asks me out i say no because im scared and i really want a boyfriend though (link)
Okay, first of all. Why are you scared? Is this guy a bad influence, or are you just scared of beginning a new relationship; or is it something else? Second of all, do you like the guy? If so, just say yes. Things will probably be awkward at first but they will get better. If you need any more advice my s/n is xobubblegum25xo. hope i helped!


my mother and father have band me from talking to a guy i really like and he likes me. and i dont see why because my sisters have been making up all of this crap. and thats why i cant see him anymore and i got to go to this place last weekend and slow dance with him and i really want to go out with him but im not even allwoed to talk to him on the phone. amd my x boyfriend is his cousin and he still likes me so he is makeing up all of this crap to please help me
love x0x0 confused p.s i have tryed to talk with them about it but it didnt work
(link)
Okay, first of all, you need to take care of the ex-boyfriend business. Tell him plain out to stop making up lies and stuff. Then sit your parents down and look them straight in the eyes and tell them that he's a good guy and that your sisters and ex have just been making up stuff, probably because they're jealous *your ex probably is* or the don't like him *your sisters might not* If they don't believe you, PROVE it to them. Get him to come over to your house or something and let your parents get to know him. Maybe they just want to know him better. hope i helped. if you need more advice my s/n is xobubblegum25xo


Hi everyone, I'm 14/f and I was j/w if it would be bad if I eventually went out with a 19 year old guy. I'm going to be 15 in May. I've been talking to this guy for a year now. He seems really really sweet, but we haven't met yet. I just feel like I'm starting to like him now. We were going to go see a movie one time, but we didn't end up going because it was really late. I decided not to go. He always used to say I'm too young and everything, so he was afraid to meet me, but then all of a sudden that one time he was going to go somewhere with me. He doesn't seem to care about my age all that much now. I'm not sure if he likes me or not, but I'm just saying if we met and everything, would it be wrong for me to be going out with a 19 year old? In my opinion, it's not that bad. I know we could both get in trouble, but he's really sweet. I've talked to a lot of people that I don't know on the internet, and he doesn't seem like one of those guys that only cares about sex. He never tries to talk about it with me like other gross guys do. I was also wondering how I could maybe hint to him when I'm talking to him on the internet again that I like him. I'll probably be talking to him tomorrow night. If we ever met also, what are some suggestions as to where we could meet and hang out since it'll be the first time. If anyone can, please answer! I just want a few suggestions. I'm soo very sorry that this question is so long. And I also know that you'll probably tell me it's a big age difference, but age shouldn't matter if you really like someone right? You could always keep the relationship a secret, and not do anything illegal with that person until your old enough and you know you won't get in trouble. If your nice when you answer, and you give good advice I'll rate you a 5!!!! Thank you so much again, and sorry about the length. :-) (link)
Okay, I know not to lecture people, because I personally HATE being lectured. I do want to suggest some stuff to you first. The internet can be dangerous, so before you plan to meet ANYWHERE, be sure that he's not some 50 year old asshole that is going to rape you or something. Also, if you do end up going out with him, be sure to keep it a secret because that's illegal. The age difference is too big of a gap, and you're still under 18, so you're a minor. Be very careful with this guy and don't do something that you will regret later. If after you meet him and become acquainted with him better you find yourself believing that he's not a good influence or that you don't think you should trust him with you or something, talk to him about it or break up with him. The last thing you want is to have sex with him and get pregnant, then leave your parents to find out 1. you met him over the internet, and 2. he's 19 years old. If you need more advice my s/n is xobubblegum25xo. hope i helped!


ok well i have this friend call her leah shes 15 and im 14 and the guy joe is 16. ok well leah had a boyfriend who was her age hit her forced her into sex and he did drug her parents found out and she has alot of regrets. well she met this guy named joe hes really cute and nice. he was supposed to come over but never did. leahs really upset thnking hes going to be like her ex she should give joe a second chance he was at the mall instead of coming over what should she do.

signed stuck in the middle (link)
Although I can understand her giving Joe a chance and her not, I believe she should give him a chance. If he starts to take advantage of her, like drag her into having sex or something, she needs to be assertive even if he is 'making' her. Guys have balls, so she can always use that as self defense. If after awhile you feel this guy isn't safe, talk to 'Leah' about it and tell her; hopefully she'll listen. hope i helped


this might be long,
At a recent school dance i danced with this really cute boy. That whole night i totally obsessed over him and couldnt stop thinking about him. After the dance i went online and talked to my friend hailey and told her i felt something for him. We talked about it and said "i have no chance hes way out of my league. ill probably never talk to him again" and then the next day at school at lunch hailey came up to me and said " i talked to shane" and i was like "whhattt!?" and she says " i asked him what he thought about you looks wise and he said veerry good" i was really happy about it. I started to get to know him for about a month and when the next dance came he asked me out. We started going out but i felt really weird...not so much the first couple of days. He would come over my house and we watched movies and stuff (and thats it) . then the next weekend he came over again and watched a movie and i got so fed up with having him around and the next day i dumped him. Well to get to the point. I like guys that i cant have. Once they start to like me i totally change and dont feel anything for them. I just want someones oppinion about it. I keep dumping totally sweet boys that girls at my school are dying to get their hands on for no reason!
sorry if it was long
i rate high (link)
Wow, I think that you just get a little impatient or something with the fact that once you have a boyfriend, you can't exactly 'like like' other guys, if you know what I mean. I think that next time you get a boyfriend and get that weird feeling, just plan to go to the movies or mall or something so that you get to hang out with him and stuff. Eventually everything should work out. That probably wasn't too much of a help but you can i/m me anytime at xobubblegum25xo. hope i helped


Ok well Brett i/med me...my boyfriend and he said will you kiss me i dont no if it was a joke or if he was serious..i dont no what to say to him....help me!?


PLEASE Help,

Confused (link)
Okay, I think you're saying Brett is your boyfriend. You don't exactly have to SAY anything to him about it, unless he brings it up and you want to say something about it. I think you should plan a date, like go to the movies or something, and when you feel the time is right, or if he comes towards you and you're okay with it or something, then go for it (just kiss him i mean). If that doesn't sound like good or appropriate advice for you to use or try, then don't use it. Also, if you're just simply not ready to kiss him, then talk to him about it and tell him that you want to wait awhile, and if he doesn't accept that then, in my opinion, he's not really worth it. once again, if that doesn't seem like good advice, don't use it. hope i helped!


okay there is this guy i like but he is in 11th grade and im in 9th and he sits at my lunch table n all of a sudden like a few months ago he just stated to sit next to me and stuff and flirt kinda and ive had ppl at my table come up 2 me and say i think you 2 should go out. But hes also a big partier if u kno what i mean n ive heard stories about him that arnt too good like hes always partying n stuff like that. And i know that he used to smoke but he swears he hasnt for like 6 months and says that he is quitting so thats good i guess... right? but he rly is a nice kid dont get me wrong there and plus hes madd funny. and i had a friend ask him who he liked and he said no1 at our lunch table right now but possibly in the future. And im rly confused... should i like this kid?

(link)
I can't decide for you if you should like this guy or not. But I can tell you that the best thing to do is let your heart decide, and follow. If you feel the urge to be around him, hang out, talk a lot and such, then yes, go for it! If you feel as though your family or friends would not be happy with you for going out with a guy who is 2 years older than you, parties a lot, and used to smoke, then maybe you should think twice. Your friends and family are forever, guys are just temporary until you find the right one. So I guess you should just think of it that way and hopefully you will make the right choice. What that choice would be, I don't know. I wish you the best of luck. Hope I helped!


I'm 20 years old, and going out with this guy this Friday. He's a little bit shy, but I know he's really nice and funny and smart, and I really like him. However, I kinda want the realationship to get a bit more serious. Any tips on how to break the ice?
Thanks~ (link)
Okay, I'm going to try to help you to the best of my ability, but if this doesn't seem like the right advice, then don't use it. Just remember, this is coming from a teenager's point of view! I think you should just act normal, be yourself. Simply show him that you like him for who he is (hopefully you do). If he doesn't seem to loosen up, suggest that you get together sometime and watch a comedy movie, romantic or not, at one of your houses. Once again, just be yourself and act freely, just not too immature, and he will probably loosen up and eventually be more fun to be around! Hope I helped!


hey i wanna talk to this kid i like, and im pretty sure he already knows i like him, but i dont want to make it obvious if he doesnt, which im like 99% sure he does like i said but anyway i dont know how to start talking to him, i mean used to talk alot but now im scared to talk to him, i mean i dont know what to say, other then, "hey whats up" and crap. (link)
Wow, is that a long sentence or what?! lol, try saying it all in one breath! Okay, back to your question. I think you should face your fears and start a conversation with him, beginning with the "hey whats up" and stuff. Then, ask him what sports he likes to play, where he hangs out, what his hobbies are, etc. If you find out where he hangs out, then you can accidently-on-purpose run into him at that place! He will then think you're possibly into the same stuff as he is. Just make sure you don't "run into him" accidently-on-purpose too many times, because that could result in him thinking your a total stalker or something and then he won't even THINK about liking you (sorry if that sounded harsh!) Well that should work, and be sure to be flirty, and wear a simple fragrance if possible! Hope i helped!


ok me and my ex were together for 8 months...my longest relationship. it got to the point where i could totally be myself and everything with him. our last month was aweful. he didnt call me as much, people said he was cheating on me. but whenever i asked him he said he would never do that. anyways, we broke up at the begining on this month. since then, ive gotten a new bf. ive known him for two years and a ton of girls like him and hes really popular and he really likes me. he talks about me ALL the time and hes a great bf. but lately ive been missing my ex so much it makes me cry. i wasnt really that sad after the break up (i broke up with him)...but now its hitting me. we still talk though..he said he has a new gf they got together yesertday and he asked if i wanted to double date!!!!!!! i was like wtf...that would kill me seeing him with another girl..but i just said yea anyways. well hes coming over sunday to get his stuff he left here before we broke up..i miss him so much...and when he signed off last nite he sed he loves me and he always will...im so confused...help..

i dont want him back...but then again i do...i just hate seeing him with someone else. :( (link)
Hmm ... wow, it's a really bad feeling when you start to miss an ex. It's perfectly okay, though, even if you do have a boyfriend. You've probably been missing your ex because it just sunk in that he really wasn't YOURS anymore. It's a really great thing that you two still talk though. I really can't come up with an idea as to why he might say he loves you and always will though. Maybe you were his first TRUE love, and we all know that our first true love stays in our heart forever and always. Or maybe he's beginning to like you again. Either way, I think you should go through with the double date, and try to make the best of it. Hope i helped, tell me how everything goes!


Hi I really ned help! Ok well u know the shooting that happened in minnesota? Ya well me and my bf go to that skool and he was one of the victims! Ah! and he's in the hospital and they say he might die! he's in a coma and wont wake up! I strted freaking out when I heard his name on the list of the shot! They said he was still living but it was a 80% chance of dieing! He is the love of my life and I do not know what to do! Help me some one plz? (link)
Okay, listen. Yeah, this is an absolutely HORRIBLE situation, and I'll do my best to try and help you. First of all, even if you aren't very religious, you need to pray to the Lord and ask him to help you through this, as well as anyone else who cares about your boyfriend. Ask the Lord to save your boyfriend and let him live, if it is in his will (God's Will). Sorry if I sound like a church-a-holic. There's nothing really you can do, besides hope, be there for his family and friends, and pray. I wish you the best of luck and if you need someone to talk to my s/n is xobubblegum25xo. Hope I helped!


Sometimes when a girl likes a guy a lot, she becomes dumb around him and can't think of anything to say. Well, I'm like that. I'm too nervous to say anything, I never talk to him unless he talks to me... I think he has a crush on me, cause I really never noticed him until he started talking to me . And I developed a crush on him .
The problem is that everyone's telling me
"dont walk up to him, people will start talking"
That's one of the reasons I'm too nervous to talk to him!
When is the perfect time to talk to a guy you like? should I start saying hi to him instead of waiting for him to say hi to me? never really say hi to him, he always does and I reply.
Please dont delete this question, I need the advice. I rate of course. (link)
Okay, this is sort of complicated. I know what its like to get really shy around a guy. It's really hard, but you have to talk to him. I think you should start a conversation with him in person, despite the things people say. If you can't do it in person, then maybe you should talk to him online, on the phone, or even write him a note. You really have to face your fears, you can handle it. You won't get anywhere in life if you don't follow your dreams. hope i helped.
