Whats going on?
ok me and this guy started talking 2 weeks ago, we started talking on aim and on the phone, we would talk to eachother for 6 hours a day on aim and we would sleep in 5am i kinda had a crush on him he's funny and nice. and we were flirty too in a way, and one day we were sharing secrets all the time and he said tell me something that i dont know and i said umm im a natural flirt and he was all haha i knew it and he became a little quiet and he began to talk again, and next day he was okay but he becoming quiet again and he signed off at 2am but he usually stay on till 5am and the next day again he texted me saying "wheres my lunch? haha im at mcdonalds" cause we bet on it and then after that he didnt talk to me on aim like he ALWAYS do cause he always im me right when i get on but now he wont anymore is there something wrong? whats going on?

He could be losing intrest, you know like, doing the same thing over and over. Like you said, he always IM's you and you talk from this time to that time. And I know what you mean exactly. Maybe you could shake it up a little bit. By first asking him something like "Are you mad at me?" and he'll probobly say "No, why?" then you could say "Well, it just seems like your avoiding me a little or something, I just noticed that and I was wondering why you don't talk to me like before and stuff." Don't make it too "All up in his face" but Don't make it like easy for him to tell you nothing is that matter, becuase you so have the right to know. I know it's hard to ask guys things like this, some girls think they'll get mad at them and never talk to them again. But trust me, most guys aren't that heartless. And maybe if you guys get back to normal, you could bring up hanging out in person and going to the mall or something else you guys have in common? Just an idea! Make things a little less, re-played. If that makes sense. Well I hope something works out! And that I sparked something, if not I hope you get really great advice! :D


14/M

Is it wrong to make out 1 week after the first date? (link)
Well it depends. If she wants to, I'd say go for it! Becuase a lot of girls probobly would want to, unless they don't if that makes sense. Make sure she's okay with it first, either by asking her yourself, or getting one of your friends to ask her but tell not to say you wanted to know, just ask them if they could ask her really casually. But I don't think its wrong at all. Go for it. Hope something helped! :D


so this guy i like who is kinda interested in me imed me and it was his frends over who are girls and they were like calling me a ho and stuff and like hey your crush wants to video chat with you he wants to hear your beautiful voice and messing around with me what does this mean...does he like me...oh he knos i like him (link)
Jeeze, that sounds kind of mean. Well yeah he might like you if they're messing with him. But my advice, is if you talk to him MAKE SURE your talking to HIM. So, like if you talk to him on aim, don't always believe its him or not, because it might not be. I would say talk to him in person or on the phone or maybe texting if you guys have it. Hope something helped. (:


17 F
I just started going out with this guy today. His birthday is tomorrow. Should I do anything special?

We've liked each other since january.
He missed my birthday Friday because he wasn't at school. (link)
Well since you just started going out, he must like you a lot now. So think of anything that he might like, my advice would be don't go too over the top. Unless your like, throwing him a party or something. Birthday's can be pretty big. But it depends how old they're turning. Otherwisee, think of things he likes, if its food or cars or music or something, think along the lines of that, be creative you'll think of something, or bake him a cake! :D
Good luck, hope something helped.


so there is this guy im interested in and i swear i seriously suck at flirting.
i want him to be able to talk to me.and notice me. and get to know me, what should i do? he seems kinda not really shy. (link)
Well, trust me, I have been there plenty of times, and I probobly will later on. I totally know what you mean, its hard to be the one to walk up to someone and talk to them, and get them to notice you and everything. I know this may sound a little stalkerish, but it worked for me. Find out by either talking to him, or his friends or something, and see what he really likes, find out what you two have in common, I noticed guys really like, down to earth girls they can talk to with things they each have in common with eachother. I don't know who he is, or what he likes, so I can't exactly give you all the information.
But say if he's into rock music and skate boarding, maybe you could listen to some of the music he does, or ask him about it. Maybe he could teach you to skateboard once you get close. For him to notice you, you could just smile a lot and be really really friendly. But not too fake looking. And make sure he sees you at least 5 times a day. Then he'll maybe walk up to you. Its okay though, because I really suck at flirting, and you don't even really have to "Flirt" the first few times. Just make sure he sees you as a relaxed nice girl to talk to. I really hope it works out for you! :D


recently... everytime me and my bf make out, hours later my throat starts to hurt and get sore... what can be the cause? this has NEVER happened with anyone else... could it be and std?? help greatly appreciated!!!

sincerely, SICK. (link)
Okay, well it could be mono, but that would mean that it would be in your system and stay, like it wouldn't go away. So when you say "everytime" you and your boyfriend make out, does that mean you get a sore throat and then it hurts, and then it goes away? Because it could easily be a virus. I mean, I know flu season it over apparently, but I know people get sick like everyday. So technically stuff still goes around. I doubt its an STD, but you can get them through your mouth. I would say, get a check up with your doctor the minuet it starts hurting, so he can check, it could be a virus, strep, mono ect. But you have to get a blood test for mono. And you can look up "Sore throat causes" or something, on google. Hope it works out for you!(:


Hi.

14/m

I've been going out with this girl. Its been almost a week. We've each gone out before but it was like 4th grade with other people and it wasnt "real". Now we're 14, its the real deal lol.
So weve talked alot and hung out alot (not sure whether to consider them dates or not) and I'm wondering, should I kiss her on the cheek in the near future? I HAVE HUGGED HER BEFORE.

Any advice on cheek kissing/making out is very appreciated.

Thank you. (link)
That's cute(:
Hmm, well do you know if she would rather want to take it slow? Find out. Or go with your instincts, normally I'd say take her to a movie or some other place, and you could hug her then wait a bit and at the right time (you'll know whats the right time) kiss her on the cheek. If she smiles and maybe blushes, then that means she wanted you to. Or you could skip the cheek kiss, and kiss her on the lips. If I were you I wouldn't make out yet, is only been almost a week, I'd wait a bit, because you don't really know if she's totally comfortable or not, so don't go in unless you know for sure. Good luck! (:


me and my guy friend have drifted apart.
we no longer talk.

he Imed me today talking about him and this one girl having sex, and that was the end of it.
thats all he has said to me in like a week.

and i just broke down, bc i feel like he said that just to rub it in my face and it really hurt.

why do you think he did that? was he trying to make me jealous? (link)
Hmm. The same thing kind of happened to me, this guy and me had a thing though, but then he ignored me for 5 months and all the sudden told me he was going out with someone. I think he could be trying to make you jealous and I totally know why you'd think that made you hurt. You could alwaysspring it back on him and try to make him jealous, or ask him who he likes, unless its the girl. And then you could always ask him like, "Okay so, you don't talk to me for a long time, and then all the sudden you tell me about you having sex, is there something going on?" I know, some guys find it annoying when I girl wants to "know everything" but maybe he wants to you?


why is it o.k. for guys to have sex with as many partners as they want to but if girls do the same they are considered "ho's" or "sluts"? (link)
Because life is a bitch.
And some guys are just stupid, but there are some guys out there who don't do that. But its kind of hard to find them. I know, trust me, a lot of guys just care about showing off infront of their friends, and its so stupid. And girls don't say stuff like "I stole his virginity" or something and call the guy a name. which sucks, and I think if they do it so should we. But yeah, its how society works these days.


i broke up with my bf cuz he was cheating. i really want him in my life and to be friends but i know i will regret breaking up with him. he keeps telling me that he loves me and everything but then his actions say differently. he took me off his myspace, before we broke up. what the hell. then he set his profile on private. i basically just need to get over it...what helps mend the broken heart, im a really happy person usually, but i have a problem drinking so i want to find other ways to deal with this. please help (link)
Dude, that so sucks, I'm really sorry. I mean, just take a deep breath first and think, everyday a guy breaks a girl's heart and they're thinking of the same thing you are. But then everyday theres always a girl who thought of a way to get over it. And, don't use drinking to solve problems unless you want to either end up in rehab for a while or have more guy problems and health problems, so please don't. Your smart I know it. So anyway, here are some ways.

1. Go out with friends, and party, but not to hard, and look for a new guy.

2. Every time you have the need to drink, drink something like orange juice or something, my friends tell me it works but I'm not 100% but I'm still putting it on the list.

3.If you have a lot of guy friends, that's really good, hangout with them and maybe you'll hook one.

4. If you don't have a lot of guy friends, be really fun and flirty.

5. If you want your boyfriend to be in your life, then treat him like a regular half friend half aquantence.

6. Don't focus everything on him, just think, when your older, would you really want someone who cheated on you before? Don't get back with him! It'll make matters worse.

7.Some people dance and exercise a lot of stress away, and one of my friends says Yoga helps a lot. Try it?

8. Also listen to a lot of different music and memorize different varities of songs also, not only will it help in any way you want, but so mnay guys love a girl who knows about music.

9.Straight up tell your ex that you just want to be friends, and be cool with him, and its cool if he still loves you but I mean, why love or like someone, who likes and loves another person? If you want to be the only girl in a guy's life, then that's it.

10. Think of your past relationships, the good ones, and how you got those guys, every girl knows at least one way of flirting with a specific type of man, trust me.


I really hope something helped here!
Good luck. :]


Well I hooked up with this guy and found out he has a girlfriend the next day so what should I do, what should I say to him? does this make me a slut I feel disguisted with myself that I affilated myself with him. (link)
Its not your fault you didn't know about the girlfriend. But now that you DO know, I would say dump him. Because if you hang around with him a lot more, and start liking eachother, imagine how not only the other girl would feel (terrible) but what she would do, and all the nasty names you'd be called. I would just tell the guy its not a great idea to be technically cheating on your girlfriend, and maybe just be friends and see how it goes down the road? Hope something helped, good luck. :]


this guy kept saying he liked me and that he wanted to go out with me and stuff
then he told me he liked another girl
and im totally heart broken
any ways to cheer me up? (link)
Awww. :[
First off, that so sucks and I am so sorry. But its the way it goes, some guys's just do that because they can't help but be attracted to lots of girls, and it really sucks. That's happend to me a million times, and it hurts, I know. Some ways to get over him could be:
1.)Have a sleepover with 1,2,3 of your closest friends and just party it out.
2.)Find some a new guy
3.Make friends with tons of guys, you'll have a lot of oppertunities to get to know them, more friends, and maybe a connection with some:)
4.)Don't eat a lot of icecream or anything, but some say its the key to mend a broken heart, haha.
5.) If you don't want to get fat off Ice cream maybe grab a friend and go to the mall, go work out, go bowling ect.
Do a bunch of fun things, and get your mind off of him. And if you really really like him, and you find out later that he likes you again, you will have the urge to like him again. But I guarentee, that if you chose one or two or all of the 5 things to get your mind off him, it'll probobly work. My main point here is, just let him go. :]
Good luck :D


okay so i really like this guy.
i just met him.
and like everytime i see him in the halls and stuff i WANT to talk to him, but im like speechless.
so now he thinks im shy
aand hes GORGEOUS.
what do i do?
like i really want to seem like the outgoing girl i am around everyone else.
thanks in advance. (link)
Ohh my gosh! Okay, so yeah we're like going through the SAME problem! haha. Hmm, well I was trying this out and it worked. So probobly everytime you see him, you can't even like THINK OF ANYTHING to talk about right? I know this sounds really really really dorky maybe, but I acctually wrote down or thought of stuff to say. Or questions, but then don't ask too many questions if you can tell he's getting annoyed. If you guys have classes together you could tyr to make it so you have a good chance of talking to him. If you get nervous or something and your speechless and your stomache hurts or something, just breathe in your nose & out your mouth and say something. It could be like, hey whats up? nothing you? oh nothing just really pissed off about my grade in blah blah blah, do you have an A in that class? And so on, but that's like an example haha. I hope I'm not "over doing it" but I was sort of happy because all the girls t my school are totally outgoing but when im around gorgeous guys like that, I know how you feel. haha, I hope that something helped!!!! :]]]


Okay.
I'm going to try to make this as short as I can.
I'm going to be a senior this year.
I met this boy Robby when I was in 6th grade.
In the summer going into 10th grade we started talking and becoming better friends.
Well we never officially when out but we talked every day and hung out all the time and pretty much acted like it.
Well he told me he loved me and blah blah..
Then he goes and gets this girlfriend randomly.. well it took me so long to get him to talk to me.. then my friend flipped out on him and then I just gave up and then he broke up with her.
Well then about a year ago.. we started going out officially.
Everything was amazing.. except the little thing that he told me he lost his virginity in 2nd grade which I know is a lie.. but he didn't try to do ANYTHING with me.. we only kissed.. and I do not understand why.
But anyways.. everything was good and about 8 months into our relationship his best friend saw me at the mall and his friend gave me the phone and he was on it and he was mad because I was supposed to hang out with him. So I said i didnt have my phone and when I saw it my phone later he called 107 times. I told him we needed a break after that.
Well he told me he loved me and that he'll wait.
So 2 weeks went by.. and now he has another gf. And after ALL that I don't see what went wrong it seemed like he liked me a lot.
Now he wont talk to me.. I'm sooo upset! I don't know how to get him to talk to me.
(link)
Oh wow. That totally sucks! Hmmm, well I've been through the same problem and he probobly doesn't want to talk to you because well, I can't find better words but he might feel like this is his way of "punishing" you for telling him that you guys needed a break. He could be trying to make you jealous by getting a girlfriend too! My ex did this too me too. And he didn't talk to me for about a year. But I talked to my friends a lot, and it turned out my friends were good friends with him and told him everything I said. Which sort of sucked, but it got him to talk to me.
Now, I'm not saying you should do that, unless well you want to. The way I see it is, A. You could walk straight up to him and be like "Why don't you talk to me anymore." He'll either ignore you or say "what are you talking about.." then walk away. You could think of something to say to him, possibly better then that. B. If you still like him, you could tell him how you feel, I mean seriously people don't say "I love you" adn then two weeks later they don't.
Unless they had like no feelings at all or they're fast at mending their "broken heart" or whatever. C. You could see it like this, Your a senior, its your last year, you shouldn't think about some guy the whole year, maybe date around, find some new people to hang out with and maybe he'll talk to you. You could also call him, text him, send him an email or in person tell him how you feel.
I don't know if you still like him or not. You could possibly talk to his new girlfriend then she'll defidently be like "She talked to me" then he'll totally talk to you and be like "why'd you talk to my girlfriend" then that'll give you a good chance to think of something good to say that sums it all up so he'll listen. Well Sorry if this is too long, but I really hope it helps and I gave you an Idea! Good luck!!! :]]]]


Okay so me and my boyfriend have been going out now for a few days he came over the other day when he asked me out and we ended up just hanging out with my family but i guess he thought it was fun. But he's gonna be comming over again this monday and i dont want it to be boring yet i dont know what we could do. i live in a small town with well nothing to do and we could hang at the park or something to get away from my family but its gonna be really hot soo idk What are some things we could do? we dont get to hang out much because he lives 40 minutes away and i cant drive and he has work that we kinda ruins times we can hang out and school starts for me this comming wednesday which is gonna make things even harder so i want to have fun things we can do when he's here so we can make it work. got any ideas?
we also cant leave my town and my town doesnt have a pool or anything like that soo what do you suggest please help!. (link)
Hmm, well same here we have the same thing, i have a boyfriend too & he and my guy friend came over but we basically couldn't leave the house, so i stayed away from my family & we all ended up taking a really nice walk & he held my hand and we all talked for a while, I dont know what your small town looks like but if you guys went to a mall or something you could mess around in shops and stuff & eat or get ice cream and talk about things you have in common like me & my boyfriend do, since you guys have been going out for a few days hanging out is a good way to get to know eachother A LOT better. :], but I know you want time with him and not your family [totally don't blame you there!] you could play catch or something & relax and feel like you can do anything with him, even take pictures, think about things you do with your girlfriends to, maybe it'll give you an idea, think about the things he likes and put them together, like if he really likes a certin sport you could play it, thats what i do, my boyfriend really likes football so when we play, he always playfully tackles me or something and we laugh and laugh and i think its really cute :]. I really hope something gave you a good idea! Just try to make it fun! :] good luck.


my boyfriend hurt my feelings jokingly and has asked me how he can make it up to me..advice please what are some ways he can make it up to me?..possibly sexy wayss? haha kthanksbye (link)
for fun you could make him do something really crazy, or something he was making fun of you about like if he was making fun of you, that like, you had a tampon in your purse, you could make him put a tampon in his nose && walk around in the mall. just kidding. or make him strip dance to Ice Ice Baby, like in that one movie. haha there are millions of ways, just use your imagination. good luck. :]


alrighty there's this kid alec ok? and he's suchhh a cutie.and in 6th and 7th grade i absolutly hated him because he was emo and he hated me too.but now my thoughts on emo people have changed and i like him alot now..but i think this guy still hates me and i never talk to him.how do i approche him and start talking to him without him not wanting to listen to me?

Anything is helpful :] (link)
well..if i were you, i would acctually just confront him like you were thinking about something different then liking him. like you could be like "okay, iknow you hate me but i just wanted to tell you that i dont hate you anymore and i think it would be cool if we were just friends and stuff because its kind of stupid to hate someone who you havn't even talked to in a long time, so do you want to be friends?" and hopfully he'll say yes, then you can go to the next step since you already broke the ice by becoming better friends, then you can get to know him, talk about things you have in common and then he might start liking you. hope something helpe. good luck. :]]]


ok so today i hungout with the guy i like
im not normally a shy person
but when i like you i totally am!
and of course thats how i was today.
i brought my friend with me cause i new it would be silence if it was me and him. we hung out at the mall
went to some stores
walked around and then went to the movies
and saw a movie. so im glad we did that so that way i didnt have to talk. but like everything was so awkward and i felt bad cause it must of been awkward for him as much at it was for me
and now im at home and i feel like the biggest idiot for not being myself and i seriously dont know what to do. i was being myslef with what i said but me being me is fun and outgoing and always talking but when im around the guy i like im like a totally different person and i HATE it!
anything i can do to like not make him think im this big loser. like i need to talk to him
cause he didnt respond back to my text and that hurts more too cause i feel like he doesnt want to talk to me agian..
ahh it sounds like im over reacting but seriously just help me.
(dont say anything mean eiether(: ) (link)
Oh my gosh, we have the same problem, well i had it but i think i might be able to help you a little bit. okay so your mind probobly goes blank when your with him right? like you dont know anything topics to talk about? well i know it might sound dorky but i did it so yeah. i acctually wrote down what i was going to say to him and questions and topics that i talk about with my other friends and stuff. and just try to get used to him and talk about stuff he likes and things you like and stuff you have in common, im sure it will work. good luck :]


so I have this great guy. I love him to death and he makes me feel SO special. and we argue about whos more special all the time. but the thing is... I really don't feel special.. he makes me feel that way but I still feel like he is so much better than me. how can he possibly like me??? like if he is staring at me I feel uncomfortable if I have like zits or something... and I just feel like he can do so much better than me, bu the makes me feel like im the person for him and that im incredible and I just dissagree, I don't think Im beautiful and I don't think im that wonderfull.... what should I do?? why do I feel this way [ hes the only guy ive ever felt this way with ] (link)
i think maybe the reason why your feeling so "not beautiful" is because you think hes such a great guy. i know exactly what you mean though. you could be not shy but maybe a little bit insecure around him. also everyone, and i mean like EVERYONE has something about them that they just dont like. maybe you should ask him about the things he thinks is beautiful about you [ not personality like facial features] then you can try to either talk to your self about why you think they're "ugly" and change them, maybe use some different make up or something? well that's what i would do, you should also talk to him to, but thats nothing to break up with him about so try not to do that. hope something helped! good luck :]


alright so me and this guy that likes me and i like him have been talking for awhile online. we have great conversation online..but tomorrow we are hanging out for the first time.


so i guess my question is..how do you make it so it isnt awcward when you hang out with your crush alone for the first time? and dont say hang out with a big group..because its gonna be just us (: (link)
Well, you could think up a lot of questions to ask and see if you guys have anything in common? that normally works. so then it wont be akward. but don't ask all your question's right away and relax, don't get to nervous. then he can have some time to ask questions. and once you get to know him more, i promise things wont get so akward. also talking to him online is good to because you could also think of things you say online and talk about them in person. just get to know eachother and relax. hope it goes smoothly, good luck. :]
