um what happens if you eat the red shell the cheese is in, in those littly baby bel cheeses? i havent done it before.. but the shell if kinda soft so im wondering if you can eat it.. and what it tastes like. or is it like.. some soft plastic?? (link)
the red stuff is wax. you probably could eat it if you wanted to, but i garentee you that it won't taste all that great.


SHORT VERSION: the best friend likes me, how do i let him off without breaking his heart.

so me and my best guy friend (imma girl duh) have been tight since 8th grade and now were in 10th and last night on the way home from the fair he gave me a note saying he likes me and knows its not gunna happen tho and how it sucks so bad etc...well yeah, hes right its not gunna happen because i dont like him like that...how do i let him off without hurting him and still keeping my buddy around.. (link)
i was/still am in a situation EXACTLY like this one..ugh it's frustrating but i suggest that you tell him that you don't like him like that, you don't need to say the whole "but i don't want this to ruin our friendship" (that's just too cliche and it has almost no meaning), instead just treat him like you normally would and do your best to not think about the fact that he likes you in that way. at first it will be really awkward (i didn't want to hug this guy because i knew that he was enjoying it just a little too much), but it gets better with time and eventually he'll move on. i wouldn't go out with him out of pity though, because...1) that could ruin your friendship 2)you can't force yourself to like someone, it's just not possible and 3)guys hate it when you pity them and it's best that they don't know that you do pity them even if you do it can lower their self esteem (just like if someone went on a pity date with you and then you found out that he didn't really like you at all). hope everything ends well good luck!


Has anyone read seven years into the sea by Terri Farley? I read that book and I really liked it but I didn't understand the ending at all! Can someone please tell me?

Thanx in Advance (link)
i read this book too! it was a mazing the ending is about how the only reason he came ashore was to find a mate and he won't be able to come back on land for another 7 years (which is very sad), i'm not quite sure what part you didn't understand but that is the super basic explenation of what i remember.


hey my name is danielle and i went out iwththis guy for about 10 months. i reli loved him and we didnt end things on the best note but it was needed. he lied to me and there has always been a problem with his ex shes the reason we broke up. they got togetehr after us but now they are broken up and i reli think that i will never ever get over that its been 6 months since we have broken up and i still lvoe him i was with this other guy recently liek going out and i had to end it because iw anst beign faire to im because i loved guy #1. i dont know wat to do i reli love him and i feel we shoudl be together maybe not now but later and i kno that we both think about eachother its one of thsoe relatinships that u just know.and weve been throough alot and i dno. wat shoudl i do. iw ant to get over him but i cant. i cant talk to him about it because then he will feel like he has my emotions inthe palm of his hand. id ont kno wat to do (link)
hmmmmm...this is a toughy! i don't really know what to tell you but do what you think is right. personally though, i were you, i'd wait another 2 or 3 months just to make sure that i wasn't over guy number one, while trying to find a guy who'll treat me right. if you still like him after all of that, remember that everyone makes mistakes and maybe you two just met a road block. good luck!


I'm really bored.I like to try new things and start fun projects like combining archietecture,photoghraphy and sculpture into a single art work.I just want to have fun.Please could you think of something fun for me to do.Any suggestions are appreciated. (link)
collages are a great way to combine a bunch of different types of art mediums into a single peice. if you don't like collages, try being experimental and take a picture of a building (black and white) and then paint (in color) on top of it. art is your thoughts transformed into something physical. just have fun with it and do what ever you feel like. hope i helped


could some one give me some examples of artsy clothing? thanks :]! (link)
beat up jeans with paint stains, and tight shirts (t's from places like tj max and ross) that look like they've been in art class a few times are the best "artsy clothes" (this is what we wear at my school where i major in the visual arts most of the time), but if you are looking for rsomething more artsy chic, try looking for the newest fashoins or making your own statements. artists (for the most part) are always up to date on the new trends and usually make their own as well (e.g. andy warhol and his black head to toe, and crazy white hair). hope i helped! ~alli


how do you make holes in your jeans
do you just cut them or what? ;/ (link)
take scissors and make a SMALL rip and then rub the side of the blade over the hole (a BUNCH of times)to soften the area around it and to fray the edges. then wash them, they imediately look better when washed =)


what can i do about my split ends?? like what kind of shampoos or anything ot make it straighter and healthier??? (link)
unfortunatley nothing will get rid of them except for cutting them off. but in the mean time try working serveral large globs of conditioner through your hair (before shower) and keep it there for about 15-20 minutes. then rinse out really really well and shower as you normally would (yes, that means you should condition AGAIN). try this about oce every 1-2 weeks and it should make them sleeker and not so noticable. :)


16/female. I'm a junior in high school and my student teacher is extremely hot! He's 21 and he is totally in to me. We have sex at school, in the parking lot in his car. it's not regular sex but kinky crazy sex with toys and everything. Well he always tells me he loves me and if I ever left him he would freak out and come to my house and take me away. But I love this other guy at my school and I had sex with him...if the teacher finds out I'm screwed! He is always following me at school and making sure I don't flirt with guys. He even took me to his office once because I was "flirting" with guys and he kissed me really hard and said that he wouldn't ever share me. I need to get out of this relationship but I'm really scared for my life sometimes. The sex is getting way too crazy for me, he likes sticking things inside of me like sticks and everything. He's hot too, I don't want to hurt his feelings. Help? (link)
that is a bad situation to be in. you need to get help before you get seriously hurt! tell your parents, a teacher, a friends parents, anyone who can help you get rid of him! not only is he doing something that can permanently keep him from loosing his future career he's breaking laws that he's bound to break again with someone else later on. he needs to be somewhere were he can't hurt, a)you and b)anyone else!


Will replacing soda and only drinking water as a drink really make you lose weight? If so, why? (link)
yes, because water has NO CALORIES, FAT, OR SUGAR but soda does :) plus it really does wonders for your complexion! (trust me, i only drink water and rarely get zits)

I really love my boyfriend, but there is one thing that is really getting me angry! I used this product that like waxes "down there" in different shapes. I guess it makes it more fun for you and your partner. He liked it and now i'm frustrated. He refuses to do anything sexual with me unless I wax down there in like a shape. It's so dumb!! Like as soon as he sees I didn't do that he's groans and says "nevermind." I thought it was a thing I can do everys so often, cause it's annoing to do. I feel like saying "you can't freakin have sex with my just cause there isn't a freakin heart or triangle?!" What should I do? (link)
well, he seems really insensiteve. let HIM feel what it's like to wax "down there". guys a lot of times don't know what it feels like to wax ANY part of their body, let alone that part and have no idea how painful it is.


if a boy bothers you a lot but in a fun way does that mean he likes you as a gf or just a friend (link)
it depends. if it's a flirty kind of bother, then MAYBE he likes you a bit more than a friend, but i it's not that flirty, just kind of a friendly bother, than probably not. boys are wierd and there are always exceptions to the rule.


(14/f)Ok I'll attempt to make this brief. My best friend and I tried out for a more advanced program at another school. I got in, she didn't. Now whenever I talk to her she always manages to sneak in a "Your school sucks, can't believe you ditched us to go there" etc... And everytime I talk to her it's always because she wants something"Can you do this question for me, can you go to my meeting for me"etc.. (needless to say the answer tends to be no, I'll help a bit but I won't do it for you. Which causes her to throw tantrums. Anyways...).

So all of this makes me want to avoid her as much as possible, the thing is that she and another one of my friends get out of school earlier than I do, and go to my house and wait outside the door for me to come home, most of the time wanting food and/or entertainment. When I come home I tend to be a nervous wreck and I tend to spend at least a good 4 hours or so on homework. Except when they come over they refuse to leave. I'm serious, even if I tell them that I'm busy and that they should go home they always say something to the effect of "We're bored, we've got nothing else to do so we'll stay here"(they're currently not talking to me because last time they did that I told them to stop harrassing me, harsh I know).

So... any ideas of how I can keep my sanity and NOT strangle them next time I see them?


hmm... attempt to make a brief question failed, it's rather long... (link)
that sucks! it sounds to me as if they are not only JEALOUS but USING you too! and i wouldn't worry about the avoiding them because that's what i would be doing! next time you're speaking with them try to expalin to them that you have A LOT of homework an that they can't just come over and bother you all afternoon, YOU ARE NOT A ONE GIRL ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM! maybe they'll calm down a bit after that otherwise i'd just dump them (that sounds really harsh, but they are jeperdizing your education, and there will be other/better friends in the future). and remember, harrass you once, shame on THEM. harrass you twice, shame on YOU!


I love to wear t-shirts like the baggy ones but not too baggy and also not the tight ones. Is there a good place to get cute ones? like cute colors, such as pink, green, light blue and those kinda colors? (link)
TJ max is where i get mine. hope that helps :)


What is phone sex? (link)
lol phone sex is where someone with a really seductive voice talks to you and says a lot of things to turn on the caller.


ok,well this year im a 32A,first i want to ask,im 4"10, do you think 32A would be regular if im this short? (im 13) alsoo,about bathing suits....are there any bathing suits that enhance less-busty girls so i dont look compleatly akward in a bikini? acutally,what kind of bikini would be best for 32A girls? also where can i buy these? hah thanks...one more,(sorry) is it possible to go up a size within 5 months? thank you!! (link)
yes, it is possible to go up a size in 5 months ecause at this age our bodies change pretty quickly. a bikini that would probably be best for you would be something with a fun pattern, beads, buttons, etc. don't get too stressed over it though, because more women complain about have too much than too little ;)


so heres the problem:

(i'm 14/f, if that helps) i have an older brother (he's about a year older) and he's beastly. He's crazy strong and to be honest, has anger issues. we get in arguments a lot, and he hits me, tackles me, and physically hurts me. When i fight back, i lose and get the crap beaten out of me. when i don't, i still get the crap beaten out of me.

and my mom can't control him either. he's too violent. My dad could, but he's never home. i really don't know what to do. i'm sick of getting beaten up for no reason and not being able to stop it. Suggestions?? (link)
this sounds like a very dangerous situation to be in! and it sounds to me like your brother probably needs to see a counsoler (spelling), or a therapist, or even both! unfortunately there is nothing that you can do, by the sounds of things. try talking to your dad about it and seeing if he thinks that he could get him in to see someone as soon as possible. i hope he gets better, for your own safety.


Im a 14 year old girl and im 147lbs and about 5'0 nd im trying to lose around 20lbs before febuary 20th because im going to florida and i want to look decent in a bathing suit so i dont feel self-concious.any suggestions on how i can do it? right now im running on my tredmill a mile a day and trying to watch what i eat but i dont see any results.any ideas? (link)
losing weight takes time! and i' sorry to say that you probably won't be able to meet your deadline :( but try some excercises targeting your "trouble zones" and you might see faster results. oh, and you probably need AT LEAST 1 hour of cardiovascular excercise (excercises that get your heart rate up ex running, swimming, jumping rope) to keep fit.


14/f

does anyone know where they hire 14 year olds to work ??? i really need money and i dont know where to go who will hire me !

(link)
pubilx i think hires kids who are fourteen for things like bagging groceries and walking peoples carts to their cars.
