My Best Firend went out with this kid for 2 years! they broke up this summer! The kid now is like im love with me and has really strong feelings for me! My BFF tells me to go out with him and everything. She has a new boyfriend and says it will not runin anything between us and we will still be bff but i dono HELPPP!

**I have feelings for him** (link)
I definetly think you should go ahead and go out with him...i meen ur friend has been over him for awhile now and obviously moved on...she told you it would be fine so if i were you i would take that opportunity and run with it! you like each other im sure you guys will be an awesome couple and your friend will be there to support you the whole way....if your friend ends up being akward towards you or shows any jealously or anything i would talk it out with her..but im sure that wont happen....lol...well i hope i helped..good luck!!

Hey i Got a problem we have a kitten and he stays outside but i bring him in when i go to bed but my mom puts him out after i fall asleep but sometimes she forgets and he poops everywhere and mi mom swears that if he does it agian he is goin to a pound an ideas please help i love mi cat
-SaRaH- (link)
when you see your kitty getting ready to poo anytime at night (ya gotta stay up one night to see) immediately set him in the litter box...this will train him where to go..it works great...if you cant stay up then during the day you can bring him inside and wait for the poo or pee..then set him in.. ur kitty cat will learn very quickly (believe me i have tons of experience) and you can live happily ever after!! (hehe) hope i helped u and the kitty out

Well basketball is definetely a running sport...so u need totry to run at least 5 days a week...you could also do exercises to strengthen your arms...medicine balls are good as well as all the basics (push ups..lifting..etc.) You also shood go outside and practice ALOT...practice not only your shots but ballhandling too...try going inbetween the legs and dribbling with your head up...thas all i can really say...but ya know that a team needs a top assister just as bad as a top scorer! so i encourage u to try out for the team and i am sure you'll make it...good luck!

hey i am 14/f i reli need sum help with dis i hav dis friend n she tells me everything n we ben thro quite a bit i was always therre for her wen shtuff happened n i always helped her out tha problem is dat weneva i hav shtuff goin on dat i need 2 tlk bout she never listens lyk i start sayin sumthin n she'll cut me off n start tlkn bout herself or i want 2 tell her a funni stori but she interupts me in mai first sentence n starts sayin sumthin bout melissa(one of her reli good friends) i dunt wana confront her bout it cuz i kno dat she will get reli mad cuz she always tells me dat she is therre for me but in reality she isnt PLEASE HELP thank u sooooo much

* aLiCiA * (link)
hmm..tough situation.. I really think that u shood talk to her(even tho u said u dint want to) becuz shes interrupting but she doesnt realize that shes doing it..be very careful when u tell her tho..dont make it sound bossy and mean..and if shes a true friend then shell take it well and try to not interrupt as much..if u absolutely cant talk to her..as mean as this sounds..u can try to give her a dose of her own medicine..like if ur talking and she interrupts..give her a few seconds to talk then be like "ok..anyways..I was at the mall the other day and..etc" if shes smart shell take the hint and let u talk..if she gets mad when u do either thing then I don't think shes a real friend anyways..to be a friend you have to tell ur friends things and listen to them too..anyways I hope I helped ya out..I know ull do the rite thing..(PLeASe RaTe)


Does anyone have any ideas on how i can lose 10 pounds? I don't have a gym membership, so I'll need ways to exercise at home and lose the weight. Thanks!! (link)
well...i find that running (jogging)is a great way to lose weight...and with that you get in shape too...i would work my way up from 1 mile to whatever you feel you can do...i run every other day and the results are great...also, u can never go wrong with exercise videos...mainly you need to form a routine that you do daily and stay determined...try to avoid all the junk food..as hard as that sounds!....hope i helped ya and good luck

Im 14, Female...
Ok there this guy I like, his name is "Andy", well Andy and I have known each other since the beginning of summer cause one of my friends introduced me to him. Well we talked a little, but I had never seen him in person or anything. Well one day I was have just a really shitty day and I told him all my problems, about thinking of running away and suicide and everything. and he really cared and listened. Now i talk to him about all my problems. And We have a class together at skewl and hes really hot, and i think i like him, hes just someone i can talk to, the only problem is...he has a girlfriend, but we talk about anything and everything together and i like him! Any ideas on what to do? Sorry so long but I NEED HELP!! (link)
hmmm...that is a really tough situation....first off i would tell andy about you're feelings for him...take time and talk it all out (since you tell him everything and hes easy to talk to) then andy will be the one in the tough situation (picking between his gf and u)...hopefully he will realize how good of a relationship you two have and reason it out..otherwise...maybe you two werent ment to be..i meen im not tellin you to give up hope...if you two have as good a relationship as it sounds then andy will have a lot of thinkin to do and in the end im sure he'll pick you...if not then i say he has an awesome best friend and there are more fish in the sea for you..sorry this was a lil long but i had alot to say :-) hope i helped ya out! (please rate me!)


OK...muh bf and i are goin good but sometimes i cant take it because hes so immature and i wanna dump him sometimes but then im like i cant hurt him bc jus the other day he told me he loves me..and like i havent said it bakk bc i dont..but what do i do?i wanna break up with him but hes the greatest friend..& i dont wanna loose him (link)
Well, if you don't love him then ur hurting him already by leading him on...you need to sit down and really talk to him one on one...explain to him that u really love your friendship..but you two need to cool off...if hes a true friend then he'll understand and you'll continue your great friendship...you can do that OR if you do love him you could learn to look past his imperfections such as his immature attitude
he seems like he really likes you...so take time to think it all out and i know u'll do the right thing hope i helped ya! (please rate!)


the only way i can get a cell phone is if i pay for it, and i was just wondering how many ppl felt that it would be worth it? (link)
i definetly think its worth it for certain people...if you have alot of talkative friends that you think would call...then yeah...and if youre not old enough to drive then its great to call people for rides...but if ur the opposite of this then no i dont think so...itd be a waste of money...hope i helped (please rate!)


does anyone know any good sites for fitness or excercise, and how to tone up ur body and how to lose alittle weight! or if u know anything that might help me! (my main target areas are the tops of my legs and my stomache) i need to know asap! please help me! ill rate high!! thnx! (link)
hey exercise videos are always good...but to truely loose some weight and get toned up..u need to be very determined and do a routine every day...start off easy and build up..say 10 push-ups..15 sit-ups...the regular stuff..it really works, i had to do it to prepare for sports... (please rate!)


i am interested in getting sea monkeys. ive done tons of research and know all about them now. does any one else have them? if you do, do you like them? also, how much is a good kit? there are many kits, so im not sure which to get! thanx, i rate :)
(link)
hey, i used to have sea monkeys..i had them for about 3 years..i liked them a lot...and they are very easy to take care of...if youre a fish type of person then they would be great for you! Umm...i wouldnt know how much a kit would cost but i wouldn't buy an overpriced one because i bought a cheap one and they were fine..the first couple days you can barely see them..but they grow from then on..ill have to warn you..there not the the prettiest pet you can have! well..i wish you luck with them....please rate me!


okay my boyfriend is turning 16 on the 15th of september... i know him very well but i have NO clue what to get him for his birthday!! i was going to get him a present or 2 and then put a bow around myself as another gift (stupid i know but his friend thought it would be a good idea) i've never gone shopping for a guy! does anyone suggestions on what to get him?? (link)
Well...it all depends...if hes a serious type then you cood get him like cologne..clothes...lil gadgets...if hes a comedian you could buy him some sort of a gag gift for laughs...and that bow around you idea is cute...if hes romantic then you could get him a teddy bear that says i love you or something..or if you dont mind spending some money you could take him out for a fun filled night to like a restaurant, out mini golfing, or w/e u want! i hope i helped ya out!


im 13 in the 8th grade and ive never had a b/f. the guy that i like keeps on saying that he dosent like me.
is there something wrong with me? (link)
Noooo! it is so totally normal for that to happen and itll happen many more times in ur life! 13 year old guys can be really immature and even a lil afraid to commit to like anyone..i gurantee that theres a guys out there that u'll find who will like u back..in the meen time..give the guy u like a few years to realize how great u actually are! hope i helped!


I jus got signed with an agent for my voice!! and in 3 weeks im supposed to go to L.A. to record my first cd!! im so excited...but im really nervous and sad ill have to leave my friends in my freshman year. i know i should take the job considering ill be BiG and i really wanna see my name in lights but im so scared ill lose my friends while im gone and all the new friends ill make (celebs maybe :)) will not turn out to be real and ill be all alone! what to do!? HELP! (link)
First of all, that is so awesome that u have that opportunity...and to help you out..i say that you wont lose your friends if they are true friends cuz u can always keep in touch...email..aol...even letters...even though u'll be away from them that doesnt meen that ull never see or talk to them again...and im sure youll make the right judgement to who is a real friend and who is just an actress ;-) hope i helped ya!


I'm going into my senior year of high school and I haven't had a boyfriend in almost a year. (its by choice) But my question is (link)
I think that if you really like the guy in your senior year..then you should definetly be with him...he will make your senior year even better..and even if it is busy you two cood make time for each other...and for the other question...you need to have total trust in your bf and if u think that he'll have a gf and cheat on u then i dont think u shood "take the time" with him..im sure u dont need any player bfs ;-)
i really hope i helped...
