Okay.
i'm 15 and a half, female, sophomore in highschool, and i've like the same guy for a long time. Probably since september... about 7 and a half months now. I mean, some times i'll like him a LOT, and other times it'll be a crush. But it's always there. He's a junior btw. I think he's 17. Anyways a while back i told him how i felt... it was a few months ago. And it turned out he liked my friend "R". I dont' think R likes him, but he's always talking to her and stuff. I mean, R and him are friends to begin with, so i could be overreacting, but it seems like they flirt a lot.
Anyways R and this guy both went on this trip my school sponsored to europe. My best friend G also went on the trip. G hung out with this guy, and this guy's friends. When the guy i like wasn't around, she got around to talking to his friends. She, G, found out that the guy i like has never asked anyone out before in his life becuase he's too shy. Which, i guess makes me more at ease about R and him being in europe together. But a while ago i thought he liked me. Like little stuff he did i could kind of interpret as signs. At the time, i figured he knew that i liked him, so if he liked me, he would ask me out. Obviously not the case. So i guess he's going to his prom with this freshman girl, whom i've heard rumor he likes, but i'm not sure if he'll actually follow through with dating her. I think i missed my chance to ask him out before he started liking this freshman, and now i don't know if i'll ever get the opportunity. I'm really hooked on this guy. I think we'll get closer once Drumline starts (we're both on the line) but that's not till after summer, and i'll probably forget him by then, logically speaking. I'm a hopeless romantic, and i really don't want to lose this guy. We talk as friends, but not much mroe. I've never dated anyone before... so i'm not sure how to go about asking someone out, or if at this point if i should be asking this kid out. Obviously i should wait till after his prom, but even at that point i'm not sure what to do.
i guess i just need general relationship advice on this one.
Sorry it's so long. Any ideas? (link)

No, you have the rest of your life, so I don't see how you've lost the opportunity. I wouldn't ask him while he's dating, seeing someone. But like you said by that time you may be over him. Which tells me you may like him, but that’s all. Do your own thing and don't worry about it. What goes around comes around, it’ll come back up.
Good luck

count 28 days from ending. that should be about right. If not then count 28 from beginning. Most start every 3 & half weeks.

English is my a second language. I don't know how I can improve my skils? (link)

Check with the Board of Labor to see if there is an English language class in your town. If no then check the different schools, most have after hour’s classes that pertain to learning the English language. You’ll have to take several classes to become a citizen.

ok well i have a friend and she is really sweet. But i recently found out she had been cutting her wrists, so i told one of my teachers and she reported it to the office as an annonimous report. So she got called down to the office today to be talked to and well lets just say she was really upset. Shes not aloud back at school untill she goes to a shrink atleast 6times! So anyways well she keeps e-mailing me and im scarred shes going to find out it was me because someone told her that they saw a girl friend taalking to one of our teachers about her. So how am i suppost to approch her in a way that dosent hint to be proven it was me? Did I do the right thing? I really dont want to loose a friend i have already lost so many this year! I go threw school with only 3 friends! And i dont want to walk arond alone! Helllp

You were right to take action. If you didn't you might have lost a friend forever! She has issues she needs to deal with. Most cutters have suicidal tendencies. Thank God you cared enough to let someone in authority know. Now she can get the help she needs and deserves. What she was doing could have led to a permanent solution to a temporary problem. She hasn't lost a friend, she couldn't have a better one! Don't worry about he finding out, yes she will be mad, but big deal, mad is better than dead any day of the week!
You deserve a metal!

ok i have a sprint samsung cell phone and about a couple of weeks ago i got a new battery for it because after being on the phone for 30 min. it would need to be recharged again after being fully charged now whenever i go to charge my phone the light wont go on and it wont charge so i started using my moms charger since she has the same phone and now hers is doing the same thing, why?? Do i need a new charger and if so how much do they cost or do i need a new cell phone?? (i just got this phone last feb.)oh and i use my cell phone a lot..does anyone know why this is happening??
Thanks in advance! (link)

You should ask a customer service rep, but batteries work this way; when you get a battery for anything its usually dead and you charge it for 24 hours (receiving a full charge) you should not plug it back up until the charge is completely or almost gone. To re-charge it before its dead will only charge it to that capacity or point. If its half dead when plugged to the charger then it will only charge the battery half way (not the full charge you need). Never unplug the unit until it has a full charge or it stops the battery from accepting a full charge in future. If you do this a lot finally the battery stops charging alltogther. It sounds like this is what happened in both cases.
Take both phones and charger to Sprin, they can test and explain how to properly charge the phones. It may have cost involved as well to replace both batteries and chargers.
Good Luck

I really like this guy..hmm...let's call him "Steven". He's REALLY cute and I just like him. We're actually pretty good friends and he and I ALWAYS have laughs together. But he told me that he liked someone else..."Courtney". Now..."Courtney" is one of my good friends and she is like..the best person ever. But I'm just so jealous and I don't know what to do....-sigh-. Courtney has admitted to liking him but refuses to go out with him. What should I do? And..I've never gone out w/ anyone...not a kiss or anything...T.T
Oh and if this helps.. I'm 13/F and I've NEVER told anyone who i like...
Thanks (link)

You sound intelligent for your age. All I can tell you is that at 13 yrs old you have a lot of time to find Mr. Right. Do what is right. Let him go. Who knows, later on, he may turn right back to you. But for now concentrate on you.... Your turn for passion is coming. Right now is too early. When you're older you'll see I'm right and you'll be ready for it. But for now you have to get through each day without hurting him, Courtney and yourself. You can only do that by doing what is right. Concentrate on that!
Good luck.

my contract of 2 years is ending in june and i have cingular and was planning on getting the motorolla razor phone.. i just checked on cingular.com to see the retail price and it said $150 ..but since my contract is ending could i get the phone for cheaper or would it still be $150?
thanks, and ill rate 5's (link)
|
I have a niece that works with Cingular. She said that if you have fullfilled your last contract agreement you should be able to get the phone either very cheap or for $0 by trading in the one you have, but the contract obligations must have been fullfilled or close to ending.
Hope this helps.

ok.. well i like this guy and he is morman, im christian , and well i was wondering what i can do or not do around him and what the differences are?
thanks (link)

its tough beginning a new relationship, but tougher when they are of a different faith then what you're used to or even know about.
But this is something you can discuss after you've both decided to spend your life together. For now just take it one day at a time, as at the moment there is no relationship.
If you're really interested in learning more about his faith you can start at www.watchman.org/ldstools.htm. Or you can google it by searching on Mormon Faith. Good Luck

my friend and i have been friends for a while but we just started getting closer this year i like him but should i tell him should i eben go out with him that might ruin the friendship (link)
|
A lot of relationships start by being friends beforehand. The as the friendship grows it grows into a bf/gf situation. Some last as long as many years while others end after a period. Its up to the ones involved making relationships grow and mature as time moves along. Most start the relationship afraid the friendship will end. Some do, some don't. So relax, talk to him about your feels and see if you can come to a mutual understanding, that the basis for any relationship, friends or otherwise.
Good luck

ok i really wanna go to a dance on Friday but my parents want to go out that night and they never go out together so if i go to the dance they cant go out because of my sister but i really want to go to the dance and i havent been to one all year! what shood i do?!?!?!?! (link)
| |
Maybe you should think about it another way. Who decided to go out first? You said your parents NEVER went out....sooo how many other dances are there to be this year? How often do they let you go out to movies, mall, shopping, see friends...? Ask yourself if you're being a little selfish in your thinking? First of all in order for us to grow up into responsible adults we have to quit thinking of ourselves and think of others. All I read was me, me, me and what I want. Either you're very very young or spoiled. Only you know which one. Take the blinders off from seeing only you and then decide. Besides there are babysitters, why can't YOU arrange for one, after discussing it with your parents of course.

I don't know whats wrong with me. I might be depressed but I don't know. Well my dad died when I was 7 and my mom went blind (a lot of stuff happened but I don't want to say online...friends go here and stuff) so anyway. Lately everyting sets me off. I start to cry. Not just cry but hide under my blanket and half scream into my pillow. I used to cut myself a while back, but I stopped because all my friends didn't look at me the same way. My life is pretty messed up, but I've always been able to deal with it before. This one person said that I should talk to someone outside of my family, someone I trust. The thing is, I don't trust anyone so its hard to do that. So I have really kept all this in for like ever.... I have been having like panick attacks. I can't talk to a lot of people at once online, or I get angry and overwhelmed. I keep friends for a month, than I stop talking to them for a month and than the next month I talk to them again. I cry like every night. I don't want to talk to a counsler as everyone suggested because they get payed to listen to problems they don't really want too. Besides I don't cry in front of people. I have never cried in front of anybody except like maybe when I was like five. I feel so weird if I cry in public and people give me sympathy or w/e. I don't want sympathy. I don't want to talk to some stranger who just sits there and listens. Idk. I've been to one before right when my dad died and it didn't help at all. They released me after like two sessions saying I was a normal child. Even though I wasn't, I never talked during the sessions because like I said I just wasn't comfortable at all, and I don't feel like the counsler really wants to be there. There is a lot more stuff, I just don't really wanna type it all out. I know this is super long and hardly anyone is going to read it. But if you do, please help me. I don't know what to do anymore. (link)
|
You need a counsoler. There may be a lot of things going on from depression to ADHD to Bipolar. Whatever is happening can be treated. I understand you don't want to bother your mother. But under the circumstances you can't afford not to. Your mother will take the right action. Remember, whatever is happening in your life, your loved ones really care and can see you through it. But you have to let them know something is wrong.
If you can't open up to them at first thats ok. They understand. They'll be patient with you. But in order for them to help you you have to ask for help. Thanks for placing your question here. Thats the first positive sign you want to help yourself, now someone else can take over if you wish. Good luck

okay, so my mom hates everything about me so, I make up things that happen at school, like I tell my mom that the boy I like has said I'm sry about a billion times to me b/c of something that really happened but he only told me once, should I stop telling her lies to make her happy with my school life( which is better than my home life)or no??? (link)
|
Simply put Yes! There's no excuse for lies. It's time for "Mom" to get her head out of the sand. Kids have problems, just like adults. Only the adults are supposed to be grown-up enough to help their children's problem, not the other way around. Your mother is the adult here, not you. Give her that right back, and you, get back to being the daughter again. Good luck to you.

VERY LONG BUT I RATE HIGH!
my dad. i dont know how to explain him.. he divorced my mom when i was 3 and i guess my mom walked out on me. she came back so now i see her every other weekend. my dad and her still fight sometimes and he gets frustrated with her easily. everyone at my dads house always says bad stuff about my mom, including my brother, so i defend her as best i can and my dad gets really angry. i live with him & my grandparents & my brother. i cry at least one time a day but i dont cut or anything like that. i just cry alot. hes very agressive, smokes, drinks, and takes pills. i dont know what to do though because im not sure why hes like this and he always takes it out on ME. i cant go to a psychiatrist because he wont let me or anything and i dont wanna tell the police or anything because he doesnt physically hurt me, only emotionally. oh and please dont tell me to talk it out with him because he will not do that :(
well if you have ANY advice then please help. & i am a 15/f if it changes anything :/ (link)
| |
It's going to be hard for you to take advice in your situation. But talk to a counselor at school. Tell them what is occurring. Is your mother settled enough to take you? I hate to see you have trouble there as well. But it sounds as though you're going to have to take the 1st step in clearing this up. Expect bad and good times while going through this. But if you're bold enough to come this far you're bold enough to go the rest. I pray for only the best for you. Good luck

k so i have problems with guys. none like me! But people tell me i'm good looking, and fun, but then why don't any guys like me?! people say all that stuff like 'i know someone taht likes you' but no one ever seems to...help! wut can i do to be more attractive to guys? (link)
| |
Why would you think they don't like you? Guys like confidence. They like being assured everything if ok. If you're not confidence that one day, when its right, that you will find a guy, then maybe you should stand still and inspect you're attitude 1st...you're not going to find "him" until you're ready mentally, physically and emotionally. Others sense this without knowing they are sensing it. It'll happen when you're ready and not one day before.

Me and this guy Alex dated before, then he dumped me and said that hes too frigid for me and that im always depressed, when i was only depressed for 2 days because my friend killed herself...Then 1 day ago he said "I shouldnt have dumped you" and stuff and im like "Well lets see if we can go back" and he goes "Huh i cant just 'go back out' with you again..." and im just like "Wow you really cant think" because i thought that he would get the hint of asking me out again... But i think hes too shy or something...i know that he likes me and he knows that i like him, but can someone please help me see that he can ask me out again? Thanks!!! (link)
| |
He self-centered. You should have been blue about your friend. It's call "grieving". You should forget about him. Another will come along soon. You sound like a very caring person. He should have appreciated you more. I'm sorry but there isn't anyway to foretell if he'll ask you out again, besides why would you want to go back out with him? There's an old saying "you can either go forward or but you can't go backwards". Would you want to go backwards? Why not go forward to see what blessings life has in store for you?

From Fairshake and hopeing for a answer.Thank You Fellow Advicenators. (link)

Yes, some over the counter medications can show positive for drugs, as well as Herbs and Vitamins, as well as combinations of both. That’s why you name all the medications, both prescription and over-the-counter you're currently taking. For more information on this search the WebMD site.

There is a condom lodged in my vagina how do I get it out?????? (link)

I would have pulled it out. But maybe you should seek medical attention quickly or risk the chance of infection.

My best friend just told a huge secret of mine. Do I have the right to be angry?
The secret wasn't that big of a deal but it kinda meant a lot to me.
Thanks in advanced! (link)

1.It doesn't matter what the reason for someone to tell another. The fact of it is, it was between the two of you. Confidentiality is a trust that shouldn't be broken. It’s hard to get the trust back once its gone. 2. On the other hand, remember if you don't want others to know then keep it to yourself.
