I am a 35/f whose teenage daughter has been living with her father for most of her life.

When her father and I divorced it was decided she would live there because I wasn’t financially stable enough to give her a comfortable year-round home but she has always spent most of the summer with me.

While things have changed a lot now. I make a good deal more money, pay child support and have a much more comfortable home for her. She’s decided she wants to move in with me for the rest of high school because the high school in my area has a much better art classes and several of her friends attend it.

I’m delighted of course, the thing is, she is afraid to tell her father about this decision. She says she’s mentioned maybe moving in with me before, and it’s upset him or he has taken it as a joke. She has asked me to come over and be with her as she discusses the move with her father.

So my question is: Should I be there while she tells her father she has chosen to live with me next school year? I want to be there for her, but I don’t want her father to feel threatened or ganged up on. Part of me thinks she is old enough to be able to talk to her dad about this herself (I’m sure he’ll be a bit hurt, but he isn’t an ogre or anything, he wont go nuts.) So I’m quite torn, please advise. (link)
I think you should be there if you really love her.


Do you know if I should follow my dream? (link)
Yes


Hi, i m 15 and I have never had a real bf. My freshman yr of high school was full of studying, tests, and not finding any time to really get a guy intersted in me. All through middle school I've always been that shy geeky smart girl that everybody either likes or dont have a problem with. I'm entering sophomore yr and wondering if its too late to change into the person that I want to be. Guys dont really look at me as a gf b/c i kinda get nervous around them and start acting silly/stupid in a way that seems funny to them even when im trying to "flirt". Can I get any advice on how to flirt in a way that seems like flirting in a guys view, and not just my view. (link)
Girl to let a boy know you are flirting with him you have to walk by him slowly and while you're walking stair at him and when you pass him turn around and look at him and if he is looking at you it work after you looked a him for a second walk away now he knows you were flirting with him.


O.k. now I always give good boy advice but this has never happened to me or anyone else I know. Ok here's the situation:My boyfriend hasn't called me in 4 days! Thats not normal 4 him he usually calls almost everyday if its only a 4 minute talk or 4 hours. I mean there are plenty of situations to where he can't call like for some example's: His grandmother won't let him use his cell(their hous phone is disconnected),he's punished, or he's working with his uncle. but he doesn't work 24/7 so he could of called. What do ya'll think of this. Is he gonna break up with me or what? I mean its ok if he wants to break up with me but everyone knows (even his own mother and my mother!!) that he loves and adores me. The last time I talked to him he didn't act like anything was wrong everything was perfectly ok and I can tell when somethings wrong with him or anyone by attitude, tone of voice, and stuff like that. So anyone got any tips on what I should do and what he's trying to tell me, (if anything, cuz no matter what he usually tells me straight up no matter how bad), or why he's ignoring me!> Just anything please help me!! I'll rate high for good answers. (link)
Girl you should just sit down and talk to him and ask him what is really going on.Ask him this Q:Do you want to be with me or not.


ok so my little brother is 9 years old and he always wants me to play with him. he doesnt understand that im older and have things to do. whenever i try to explain this to him, he gets upset and thinks i dont want to play with him so i feel really guilty. how can i explain to him that im busy a lot and dont really have that much time to play with him?

btw 15/f

I think you should go on a searchlike you should try to find boyz his age and see which one he likes best and who ever he likes best that would be his new hangout buddy.

I though we were best friends but she alwayz trying to compare us to each other (her other friend)I want to be her friend maybe her best friend but she alwayz talk about her other friend I'm not telling her what me and my best friend used to do b/c I know she'll be like "so what I'm I and y you alwayz talktin about her" but she making me feel like I'm nothing to her. what should I do I really don't kno ..... I mean she know everything about me , my famliy ,my other friends ,she done been to my family party hangout spent a night @ each others house but I guess I would never be her best friend so my Q is what should I do to tell her if I'm her best friend with her talking about her other friend

I think you should tell her how you fell.


im so upset all my boyfriends friends think they can do what ever they want to me my boyfriend always hits me and i cant tell my parents or the cops my boyfriend said he will hit me till i cant walk anymore please someone give me advice (link)
Girl you should just tell your parents because if you don't the next thing you know your boyfriend would try to kill you if you can't do that than take him to the Maury Show than his act will get straight.


when im at school im kinda shy around people i dont know and when i do get along with some1 a while later they think im annoyin or they hate me or somethin and i don even know wat i did
can sum1 help (link)
Well maybe you should just be yourself and don't care what other people think of you because they can't stop you from being you.
