Hey! My name is Kaitlyn, but you may call me Katie. I give advice on topics such as friends, boyfriend/girlfriend, family, and pet trouble. I give very good advice, and I am very nice. I'm one of the best! All of my friends say i give good advice!!! I have had a lot of experience in the areas i put above.

I give advice i think will be most beneficial. I am truthful, i don't make up lies to make someone feel better if they want the truth.

Please ask a question! I am on almost every day.

sometimes my freinds and i will be watchin a movie and i will say somethin and my one friend will just sit there and not say anythin. like i may say i like her dress on drew barrymore and she will just sit there.

why does she do that and not say anythin? i know she hears me cause other people respond to me. (link)
She either is really absorbed in the movie, so much that she doesn't hear you, or she has bad hearing. Maybe, if there are other people there, she didn't know you were talking to her. Next time say something like, "Jessica (use your friend's name) don't you think Drew Barrymore's dress is pretty?" or something like that, and she might be more likely to respond.

HOpe i helped!


see, im affaird of letting come back into my life. i mean we were really close. and we started getting on each other nerves. and he didnt know what to do, so he just ignored me everytime i tried to talk. he meant a lot and he knows that.

now that were starting to somewhat talk again. im affaird of bring the past back all before the fights.

both of us want to forget the past.
and it kinda feels like were not gonna have anything to talk about, since we want to forget the past. and move on.

a few things are still the same with him when he jokes around. but the rest feels a tad dead. like there is no connection between us anymore. as if we dont share any interests in anything at all. as if were just strangers or something. (link)
Its normal for friends that got back together to get on each other's nerves for a while. Don't try and push him to talk to you. If he continues to ignore you, give him some time.

Think about the happy times when you two do talk. I know you will want to forget the past fight...don't mention the fight...what about when you first met....your first date, etc.

Hang out as much as you can. Hang out where you did before you fought. That might help bring back happy memories, and bring you back together close again.

If you still aren't quite sure about trying to be friends again, don't rush back into being great friends again. If you do that, that could just make things worse for the both of you.

Hope this helps!!!
Love,

every school has mean, rude people. don't let these guys get you down! You are beautiful in your own way. Don't look at the negatives, look for what you really like in yourself, wether it be your skin, hair, lips, eyes, nose, etc.

Don't give into those boys, some guys are just plain jerks.

It is good that you are happy for your friends. Just wait, i know it may be hard, but the perfect guy for you may come along someday soon. Just because guys say your ugly, doesn't mean you are! Focus on having fun, and don't worry about what people say about you.

Just be yourself, and have fun doing it!!!
Hope this helps!
Love,
Katie


ok.. like.. i get really hyper. & like yesterday, i was at the carnival, & i was like idno, fulling around. & like, my one friend is so quiet, & shy. & im more outgoing & everything. soo, should i change? & be more like her? or should i stay the way i am? i dont want to like annoy someone. & how can i stop acting so hyper sometimes? (link)
Keep being yourself!!! Encourage your friend to be less shy, but don't force her. You should try relaxing a little when you are hyper.I know, its hard! Just when you feel a rush coming on, take a deep breath and try and control it. Of course, it is ok to be hyper in moderation.
Hope this helps.......


okay here is the thing. me and my friend where really close for an year and we got into these fights and decided to ignore me for 5 months. 2 days ago and IM's me and says he was sorry for what he did. and that he'd like to talk again but not turning back to close friends we were.

and the thing is im not sure if i should give him a chance..or forget it. because it feels a tad akward.

anyone know any good songs for this kinda thing.?

thanks (link)
Go ahead and talk to him if you want to. don't push him into trying to be close friends again, or he might rebel again. Don't start any fights, or do anything that might upset him if you truely want to try and be friends again. (im not saying you started fights in the first place.) Just take it slowly, and you might become good friends again.
Hope this helps,
Kaitlyn


do you think that a best friend you've had through middle school can remain your best friend in high school if you are very close right now? (link)
of course! I have a friend right now that i have been freinds with since elementary school.....we are both gonna be in Junior high.....in two years we will both be in High school.....unless something major happens, I assume we will still be friends. (she is a grade behind me) there is also my friend's friend that i met in 6th grade (she was in 5th) and we are inseparable, and now im going into 8th, and her into 7th.
So as long as you stay close, You can be! Just remember as you go through middle school/junior high,she might change, and if she does too much, she may decide she doesn't want to be friends. DOn't fight, just let her go. She might come back later!!
Hope this helps.....


okay well my friend is going through a rough time right now. her boyfriend just told her that he is gonna kill himself cause he wants to but he wont tell her why. he was starting to but then he just stoped typing ( it was on AIM ) the ages are 12. do you think he seriously could of meant it. cause he said he really wanted to cut himself also. & she is so worried about him because she loves him so much and she doenst want to loose him. any advice that i could tell her to do. that would be helpful thankks
(link)
tell your friend to call/go over to this guy's house and talk to him!!! Some people really do mean it, and he could. Usually hearing a loved one's voice will help the person realize that someone does still love them, and they won't try to kill themselves, or they will admit to taking pills if they tried to kill themselves that way. Your friend really needs to talk to him. If he still isn't willing to stop trying to cut/kill himself, then you need to tell his parents if they don't already know
HOpe this helps!


So sorry if this is long!!!

ohkay so i have a really close friend that likes me. we'll call him Bob. Bob and i are really close friends i tell him everything and when i talk to him it feels like everytihng at that moment is perfect. he's almost everything i want in a guy. i mean hes funny and really cares about me etc... the only thing is that i dont feel a physical attraction to Bob. in a relationship i think that you should be physically attracted to someone too its not like its a major deal but to me it matters.
theres also the fact that if we were to go out i wouldn't see him all that often. he goes to a different school and both of us are usually pretty busy on the weekends. (i got to my dads every other weekend which is an hour away) and on the other weekends i spend time with friends.
i mean i could always go out with him just for the summer but he really really means alot to me and i wouldnt ever want to hurt him. but i also dont want an "internet boyfriend".

so what should i do? do i just stay friends with him or should i go out with him? or what if we were "friends with benefits"?

help me i'm so confused!

if you both really care about each other, don't let not seeing each other very much keep you from starting a great relationship with 'bob'. Be sure you keep contact by calling/emailing/IMing him. If you go out but never talk somehow, you can drift apart. Best of luck!


I'm scared that my Best friend doesn't like me anymore. We're both 13 years old. She never calls me any more and when I asked her about it, she said that I don't have to worry about it. She said that we would hang out a lot over the summer, but I've only seen her a few times. I think that she's busy, but I dont know. What should I do? I really want to stay friends with her. (link)
Just because you don't see your friend much over the summer doesn't mean you still can't be friends. I have friends over teh summer that i only see a couple times, if at all. we are still great friends though. If she doesn't call you, call her! Email her, write by hand even. Call her and schedule a trip to a local pool/park or have a sleepover. Just because you don't hear from her doesn't mean she is purposely trying to ignore you. Some people are just busy.


Me and my best friend were really close but then we started drifting apart. One day we got in a big fight, and it BLEW UP! it went totally off the subject and all of a sudden, she wanted to fight me! It was crazy! Well, then she wanted to be friends again..i guess she just expected me to forget about everything, but it's really hard to know that she wanted to actually fight me..i mean, one of my "supposedly" best friends wanted to fight me! I still haven't TOTALLY forgiven her...is she really a true friend? What do I do? (link)
If she sincerely is sorry and has apologized, accept her apology. You may be reluctant to, but if you don't things might get worse. If you really want to still be her friend, hang around her, just be careful not to upset her. (im not saying you did in the first place) If you don't want to hang around her as much, politely tell her you need your space for a while. After that, see if things can be patched up. If so, great! If not, time to move on. It may be hard, but it could be worth it.


hey. Me and my friend were just trying a beer and I told my friend and she said she doesn't want anyhting to do with me now and we've been bff's for like ever. But I tried to get her to try some and she didn't want to so, I left her alone but she still doesn't want anything to do with me. I need help!!!!! (link)
You shoudn't pressure your friend to do something she doesn't want to do. Give up beer until you get older, and make sure your friend knows you will do that. Unless you want to lose her, change now.


Heyy all im 14/f. I`m going to my grandparents house tomorrow until sat. My friend is having a sweet 16 party and said i could invite a guest. i really wanna to go to the party but idk if im gonna no anyone there. so i invited my other friend, and a few days ago we got in a huge fight and im pretty sure shes not going with me now. Now i cant find anyone else to go with after tomorrow I wont have anyway of getting a hold of people cause my cell doesnt work and they dont ahve internet. so idk how im gonna get ahold of anyone especially the girl whos having the party. so i lied to her and said my grandpa is really sick so i have to go help my grandma take care of him and i cant go to the party i promised her id take her outt and make it up to her when i get back but still its her sweet 16 you know? HELP PLEASE! (link)
You need to tell the girl the truth, and keep your promise. She may be mad that you tried to blow her off, but if you still attend, she may still see that you are somewhat reliable to her. Also apologize to her when you tell her the truth. recognize your mistake.
Even though your friend probably won't go, you should anyway, and just be yourself. Go up to someone you don't know and say hi, and introduce yourself. i Bet after a while you will be talking away and having a blast!
