well im a girl and im 15 so here it goes...to make this as brief as possible, i hate my bestfriends boyfriend...ive been pretending that i like him and pretending that it doesnt kill me to see them together for the past 3 months because i know he makes her happy and i want to see her happy...im sick of people telling me to just deal with it because shes my bestfriend and what makes her happy should make me happy, but it doesnt...i cant keep pretending i like him, ive talked to her about it a little but i feel bad and selfish everytime i tell her i dont like him...so i dont know if there is anything left to do, if so i could use some advice (link)
You do need to deal with it. It doesn't matter if you don't like him, because he's not your boyfriend. You are being extremely selfish and have every right to feel that you are. Back off and let your friend live her own life. If you are that uncomfortable around her boyfriend, try scheduling time with her when her boyfriend isn't around. Other than that, you can't tell her who to date. Unless you have a damn good reason for disliking him, like he is a rapist or something, back off and suck it up. Try focusing on your own life rather than hers.


i feel like cinderella. my mom is sick and my dad is never home. i take care of everything at home and i hate it. if i was a stay at home person i would probaly have to help my sister get ready for school. i have to wake her up in the morning cuz my mom is sleeping. she has something call fibermialgia***. i need help. can anyone tell me what i should do to make myself feel under pressure about being both parents in the house when im only 15? and can anyone can tell me how to help my mom who has fibermialgia*, that would be great.

Buy your sister an alarm clock. As for everything else, you need to suck it up and deal with it. Stop complaining and just do what you have to do. Look up your mother's disease in a library or on the internet and read up on it.


I have a terrible friend who thinks shes cool and hates me and my friends. She always hangs out with us and then talks about us behind our backs to US! I got into a fight with her(because Im the only one who will stand up for myself) and I hate having people hate me so i appologized and she just forgave me like that! (She said "I forgive you, HUG!") It bothers me and now were back to her using me and my friends and she thinks shes popular. What should I do? (link)
It was stupid of you to apologize to her in the first place. Tell her to piss off and leave you alone. If you don't like someone, you never have to pussyfoot around and be fake to them.


i am in 7th grade and i have a friend who i have known even before skool we were always the best of friends but then she moved to a different skool and well we have hip hop together with some other of myfriends and when i am there she never even says a word to me and it really hurts she has always been a good girl and now she is just so caught up in her looks and she she hangs out wit and boys and all my other friends think this to and i dono if i should be angr wit her and all that ir if i should just forget about it cause when i see her and she doesn't even reallt notices me it jind of hurts my feelings please help (link)
If that's the way she's going to be, then forget about her. You'll make better friends, and maybe she'll even grow up and get over herself. Maybe not. Either way, it's not your loss or problem.


I have a problem with this woman that I used to be good friends with. I ended the friendship two years ago. I had to because she started to try to control me. She also ordered me around like her personal slave, took my kind nature for granted, spread mean gossip about me, broke into my email acount, and threatened to blackmail me if I ever got on her bad side. She was 46 and I was 25. She also acted really wierd and was telling people that she was my mother. She's never had children. I don't think she's mentally all there. Things got so bad that I quit the volunteer job we both worked at and put a block on my phone. She still to this day after 2 years bad mouths me at the center. I have a new paying job and it got back to me that she was trying to get my work schedule from my friend. I just want this psycho to leave me alone. How can I handle this? Someone even told me that I should bury the hatchet with her and contact her! I said no way. I also think that she wants to be my friend again. I would like to add that both my parents hate and and want me to have nothing to do with her. I'm tired of people feeling sorry for her and think I should give her a second chance. I really need someones advice! Thanks! (link)
Make it clear that if she doesn't leave you alone you will get a restraining order. If she continues, get a lawyer involved. Out-of-control bitches cannot be tolerated, and must be put down immediately.


When a guy says "will you go out with me?"

What are you supposed to say? Just yes?

Were confused!

Thanks in advance!

Answer in according to your desires. If you desire to go out with him, say yes. If not, say no. This is common sense, people.


I am 14 and my mom won't let me wear thongs. My sister is 16 and still is not allowed to wear them. Alot of my firends wear them and some don't. Sure part of the reason I want them is because alot of people wear them but that not the whole reason. I don't want panty lines when I wear sweats of whatever. My mom has always been overprotected, she didn't let me or my sister wear a bikni until last summer. Last weekend I tried on a really cute bathing suit and all she did was say how it was to low and I need to wear something more modest or I will be sending the wronge message. She thinks if I wear a low bikni someone will come and rape me, to make a long story short she is inpossible to shop with. Anyway If I could get a thong it would make me feel that I beat my mom and won. Don't get me wrong I love my mom we don't have a bad relaship at all. It just she very religous and hard to talk to. Oh and even if I did buy a thong behind her back. I've never done my own laundry in my life so she defintly know something was up. Sorry that it was so long, guess I got carried away. (link)
In a few years, you are going to be out on your own and able to buy whatever clothing you choose. Until then, you're going to have to
a)Abide by her rules; don't get a thong.
b)Screw her rules and do it anyway.

Then there's always option c)try to discuss it with her, but there's no guarantee on that.

Anyway, maybe you should try focusing on something other than underwear, trends and being sexy. Go to McDonald's or something.
