Hey Everybody! I like people to get to know me so I will tell you right from the start. i love rollerblading, playing tennis, reading, and writing, and hanging with friends. i am in middle school and proud of it! I love giving advice to people so don't be afraid!
advice
I go to a day camp, and there is this really nice boy there. His name is Josh, and I like him alot! I dont know what to say though. Im not sure if like he has ever had a girlfriend before and maybe he wont like me back and will never talk to me again. Please tell me what I should do!
-Britt
ok, first start the conversation with hi and say something like mind if i sit here if he is sitting or may if i stay with you for minute while i wait for my friend or something to let him know that you like him enough not to ignore his excistance. Talk to him about camp like your favorite activities and stuff and then say your such a great guy, i bet you have a great girlfriend and if he says no, you have full acess. Hope this helps!!
how can i lose the fat in my thighs? please dont say oh as long as your healthy then you dont need to lose the weight or get lipo suchtion
ps im 14/f
ok, to lose weight in your thighs, jog like a mile or a half a mile every day to build strengh so you don't have to go to a gym unless you want a higher level workout. Right at the moment i am starting to ride bike and roller blade, swim, and maybe start jogging. Play a game of basketball or tennis once in awhile to stay toned. Hope this helps!!
I have a little brother who is 6 years old. His name is Denis. I love him and all, but.. he's a weirdo. He's overweight.. he's only 6 and hes 114 lbs. I dont know how to tell him he's overweight without hurting his feelings. It's kind of cute though.. I call him my little oompa loompa. Hehe. Well, please give me much advice. Thanks much!
-Cynthia
ok, fisrt, start talking about weight and how much you feel like excising. Tell him that you want to spend more time with him and then offer him to take a jog with you that way he works out and it doesn't seem like your affended by his weight. After he loses the weight, make sure you tell him how great he looks and still pay attention to him. Hope this helps!!
I just got back from a two 1/2 week vacation to california. Me and my best friend hung out so much before I left. When I got home I called her immeaditly and she was like Hi. I told her i wus home and i missed her and she said Uh-Huh. *not in a sarcastic way* Shes busy hangin out with all of her other friends right now, i dont mind that she hangs out with them, but Ive been home for a week and she never calls me or anything and she didnt act like she cared I came home! Whats going on?
Hey! This normal for a friend to do. You haven't been there when they needed to call you or whatever so they feel like you might talk too much about your vacation and they can't talk to you so whatever you do, don't talk about your trip, at least not too much. Be like, "I had a great time but i really missed you." That way they can ask you questions if they want, if not, drop the subject. Invite them over, don't talk over the phone cause then it looks like they aren't good enough to be seen in person. Hope this helps!!
my hair has been falling out like crazy but its not normal falling out i mean its a lot of hair but i dont know why and i dont know if i should tell my mom

thanks
So tell your mom! It could be something serious and it could really save you by getting help. If you talk to the doctor, they could probably perscribe some kind of shampoo or pill you could use. Hope this helps!
I just got accepted 2 a very good school for advanced studies. In the coming year I want 2 Stay focused. Does any1 have tips for staying on top of grades?
ok, to stay on top of your grades, take inportant notes. Get all the extra credit you can get and just really pay attention during the class. Try to not get distracted by someone else in the class. Hope this helps!
okay this weekend I'm meeting my boyfriend's ENTIRE family at his sister's graduation party, and they're the REALLY formal type who like kiss you on the cheek and stuff. well you know how when girls kiss in the cheek? do you move your head to the left or the right? cause every time i do that i always kiss the wrong side and we always bump and its so embarrassing haha...
what other ways can i make a good impression?
hey! Some other ways to make a good impression is to talk to them about stuff they like to talk about, not stuff that will bore them out of their minds. Be polite and respectful and that should make a good impression on them. If you aren't mean or bossy, they will love you to death!
Hope this helps!
There's this guy that I've became friends with this year. Surprisingly, we've grown really close. We talk all the time on the phone and on the computer. There have been certain signs that have made me think he likes me:
1) He makes direct eye contact when talking
2) He's sweet to me and mean to the rest of my friends
3) He never wants me to get offline or off the phone when I'm talking
4) Though this isn't a reliable sign, he has had a "boner" twice when talking to me
5) He smiles at me all the time
6) Tries to show off in front of me
7) Makes the kissy faces online and says that it was an accident
8) Suggested we hang out sometime after school
9) Told me I look better with my hair down (not really a sign but wanted to throw it in there)
10) People always come up to me and tell me that they think he likes me
I'm not sure if that sounds like a match but, lately things have been weird. He's telling me how much he likes this other girl and she knows. Today she turned him down (even though he didn't ask her directly) and now I'm thinking he really doesn't like me. What should I do? I want to make a move because it seems like the signs point to yes but then, he likes her!

First of all, do you like him? Everybody thinks someone likes them but they don't think if they really like them back. Think about that and then talk to him. If you decide you like him and you want to take it a step further, then talk to him. Ask him who he likes more. He may have given up hope on you and just found someone else he likes. Hope this helps! If you need anymore help, send me some advice!
theres this guy in my drama class who is really fat and is like 350 pounds and has a billion pimples all over his face that is not able to be cured. hes telling ppl that i'm his girlfriend and i'm not. plus he stalks me becasue he knows where my house is. today he went to my house and tried attacking me becuase i don't want to be with him. lately hes attacked 3 of my friends cuz hes really violent. one of them that hes had a crush on he stalked her by breaking into her house by breaking her window and bringing flowers and a boom box so he can sing to her. he tried kissing my other friend but then she refused and then he bruised her. he also ruined the birthday present that i spent alot of my time making for my best friend and so it got destroyed. he also started moving over on where i was sitting and tried to touch me and put his arm around me but then thank god before he was able to do that my friend susana yelled move outta my way!!! and i don't know what do becuse today i have to meet up with the drama group to finish a project and hes in my group and itz too late to kick him out of the group because the project is due tomorrow. and i'm just scared on what he'll do to me. hes nasty and doesn't even have a good personality.
That is really scary! Tell your drama teacher what he is doing and also your parents if you haven't already. You need to find a way to hide from him and avoid him until the teachers can get him under control!
Hope this helped!
How do I get a guy's interest??
You should just be yourself and discuss your intersts with him and get to know him better. It will make him feel more comfortable if he knows you aren't being a phony!
i have a mole on my cheek but i want to get it removed... this week im going to but i have to make up my mind first if i want to.. should i get it removed or leave it?! they said there wont be any scarring... so?? please help!!
Get it removed! It won't leave any scars and it will probably make you feel prettier than ever before.
My friend's family invited me to go to Florida with them this summer. It was rude to say no and they kept insisting, so of course, I agreed.
The problem is that my friend is getting so annoying and mean to me. She always yells at me and makes me feel very insecure and low. I am going to be with her 24/7 for 3 weeks! I don't know what to do now because her family already payed for the tickets and I can't get out of it. She always makes me cry..her family always yells at me and laughs at me behind my back. What can I do to prevent this or prevent myelf from crying? Thanks for answering.
Since they alrady paid for the tickets, you are right, you can't get out of it. the only thing you can do is tell your friend how mean she is being to you. She may think you are crazy but that way she knows how you feel and it will make her think after all is said and done.
How do I become a featured columnist? I'm really interested..please reply. Many thanks
All you have to do is apply online and fill in a little info and set up your page. It takes you through step by step.
Any more questions?
My best friend and I just had the worse fight ever.... we both said very horrible things to eachother and i guess all of our true feelings came out... i can't explain how i'm feeling right now but i guess i'm feeling a strong urge to just cut myself and get it over with... i know people reading this think i'm a freak... but i need someone really bad... please help me.. :(
Lost N Broken
5's to anyone who helps me.....
First, CALM DOWN! There is no need to cut yourself! Sit down and take deep breaths. it may sound stupid but it helps. don't stress out about it, first if you calm down you will find that you can think better and more clearly. Write down words like you are yelling at your friend like the paper is her/him and then read it to yourself and afterwards rip it up because you know you really don't mean those things and if your friend finds it later, they will be really mad! Then, apologize, you probably just wanted to get things out into the open and that helps, tell your friend that.
Hope my advice helps!
ok, this is going to be really embarasing. here i go: school has all sorts of idiots. u can get rid of them by cussing, punching, guestures, tattletalling. there is this one kid who wont stop bothering me. it started when he would stare really hard at me in sex ed. than he started whipping his head to look at me when the teacher talked about kissing and sex. a few weeks ago, he touched my ass, and he tries to everyday in the hallway and health class. if anyone finds out i will be so embaresed. if bf finds out, ill go insane, if he finds out i told on him, im dead. i didnt mind him looking at me that much.....but touching, squeezing, pinching, running hand down my ass is too much. i hate him, and he never even said a word to me. i really need help getting rid of him, please help me! PS: i am 13 f.
First, tell a teacher in private and ask them to keep your name a secret. Eventually he will find out it was you who told but no need to worry, make sure u tell the teacher what he might do and they can keep a close watch on him. Tell your parents if you have the need to.
Hope this helps!
Ive got 2 groups. One of them has the guy that I like ALOT. I want to hang out with that group, but I dont want to diss the other group. And if I tell that group that I want to hang out with that guy, she will think im crazy or something. I dont want to diss that group. How can I tell them I want to hang out with the other group without them feeling ditched?
Thanx so much.
~Ana~
Why don't you tell one group when u can hang with them and then tell the other group when you can be with them. That way you will have a shared amount of time with both groups.
Ok well see my dad cheated on my mom, my dads a teacher at my school and he did a teacher from my school and my dad wont even take time to think about me and my two sisters, he keeps saying to my mom, he loves that lady, and we all hate her, and because of his foulishness I have to move 4 hours from my small town and I don't want to I find it supper hard having to move away leaving my friends and my dad here all alone I don't wanna move but I have to I really need help going through this I have to go see a counsler and a doctor because I'm so stress I'm making my self sick...iunno how but I go see my doctor almost every week....it sucks and I hate it I don't like being sick I just want everything to go away..can anyone help me??
First, think about how much your mom and dad love you. Your dad probably should pay a little attention to you and your sisters but remember that he has things going on too. Try to relax and calm down. It is hard trying to not think about it but do things to make you stop thinking about it for a little while. Talk to your mom about it and see how she is dealing with it. Start a journal where you can let all the extra feelings out without stressing. If you start stressing, take deep breaths and just close your eyes for a couple of minutes. It will amke you feel better, your siblings will feel better, and also your parents.
Ok. Just yesterday I got my driving permit, and I'm a little nervous about driving on the bigger roads. Afraid I'm going to forget to look for signs, miss turns, etc. Anyone got any ways I can just chill and do everything I've learned without /over/doing it? Or maybe I should just start small for awhile, drive around in college lots or my own neighbourhood?
~fellow Advicenator
Why don't u have someone come in the car with you so they can tell you if you miss something such as a sign or turn. Either that or you can be extra careful and just try to relax, turn on the radio softly.
About three weeks ago, a strange rash(feels like tiny bumps)showed up in my left armpit. Its extremely itchy. I've tried different medications for skin rashes, but every time I try to put any medicine on it, there's extreme burning pain along with the itch. I remove it immediately, (medicine). Now the right armpit is doing the same thing. I'm a 47 yr old female, and have never had a rash like this that won't go away or allow any kind of medicine to be applied. I haven't been using any soaps on it, and have increased my water consumption to aid in healing. When I start to sweat, it becomes unbearable. Cornstarch doesn't seem to work, but petroleum jelly helps out some of the time, I don't use it all day long, which would be nice if I could, I know it needs to breathe, and not blocked by ointments or jelly. What can this annoying rash be? The color is light maroonish, it feels like tons of acne pimples side-by side. Please help
I may not know a lot about rashes but I think you should talk to your doctor about it. if it turns out something terriably wrong is going on, you will feel sorry you didn't later.
I babysit every Sunday for 3 kids. 2 girls ages 5 and 7, and one boy who is 9. I bring coloring books and board games, but after a while we just run out of stuff to do!!! These kids get bored easily, and everything I own that they would like, they have used. After a while, I become bored and very tired, and so every week i am reluctant to go. What should I do, and quitting is NOT an option!
Hey! Don't give up hope! i babysit all the time. If you can, take them to the park and take them to a park. Maybe take them out for ice cream or just hang outside. It gets them out of the house and it gives you a break from being bored!
