Dear Torn in 2,
This is the most hardest question i have ever answered. The only thing you can do right now
is to think about what is best for you.
Magnet school is for pursuing your dreams....
and your regular school has all your friends + your boyfriend.
Pick the one that you think can help your future.
Even if you do go to magnet school, its not like you cant see your friends ever again.

Pick whatever you think is not regretful.
And don't listen to whatever anybody else tells you. It's really your choice and your parent's.

Dear Fall Out Girl,
i heard from my other friend that you give great advice. so here is my question...

i have this problem with my friend.
she thinks she's all that and she doesnt even care about me anymore because she thinks she should hang out with the more popular girls!
we don't go to the movies anymore and we dont even talk on the phone! what should i do?

Signed,
Not Popular

Dear Not Popular,
Tell your friend how you feel. If she still wont talk to you, well, forget her. Every girl deserves a friend who is nice, who you can laugh with, and who you can trust.
She sounds pretty full of herself in my opinion.

I'm a writer on quizilla.com, and I was wondering how I could boost how many people read my stories. I know some of you haven't been to quizilla before, but it's a site where you can take or create quizzes for other people to take or you can read or write series on there. Also, would it be against the rules if I asked people on here to read my stories? It'd be much appreciated. :]

All you have to do is be yourself and write creatively.
just write your mind and write what you write best.Write about anything you set your mind to. Who knows, maybe you can be an author one day and i will buy one of your books? =)

I was out swwimming yesterday and I went over to myfriend's place. I had just put on my jeans and I sat on their couch. When I got up, there was a huge blue stain on the couch. I had read something about just flipping it over so I just flipped the beige cushion over but now I'm feeling really bad about it because that stain would never come out.
Should I tell my friend?

Of course you should tell your friend, theres nothing to hide. A little stain wouldnt do any harm. I'm sure they wouldnt get mad at you.
Friends make mistakes and so do you,
because nobody's perfect.
You'll laugh it off sooner or later... I am positive. ;)

I have been best freinds with this girl since 4th grade and now that I am going into high school I don't want to be best freinds with her. I want a new best freind and meet new people. I still want to be freinds with her, just not as close. She doesn't have many close friends and me leaving her would be the end of the world for her. Is this mean of me? Should I stay BFs with her?

If you really want to make this decision,
confront her. Talk to her about your feelings.
Don't keep it all bottled up inside, because if you keep it in, it can cause anger and frustration.
And also, before confronting her, think about why you don't want to be as close.
Was it because you got into a silly fight?
Or maybe you just wanted to have some space?

Remember, dont make silly mistakes in life,
because most of them can't be forgiven.

Ok....i am really addicted to pop....but i wana stop drinking it and i was wonderin if you know how much weight i would lose in a month from just not drinking pop?

If you are addicted to sugary drinks,
try vitamin water or flavored water.
They do not have sugar at all but they taste like it.

And to answer your other question.
You can't really lose weight by just not
drinking pop. Maybe you could lose about 3-6 lbs.
Excercise more and eat right, and you could lose
a lot more!

I'm a 14F turning 15 in 3 months. I still haven't had my 1st period and am VERY curious to find out how soon it is coming. I have heard that you get it around the same time as your mother did, but my mom got hers when she was 11, almost 12. I am 5'1" and 95 pounds. Any estimates?

Dear 1st Period,
Technically girls can have it around the ages
8-16. Although your mother had it at the age of 11, you could still have it later or sooner.
The time you get your period is based around YOU.
But if you dont get it by the age of 17 1/2-18 consult a doctor.

Okay, so I really really like this boy James. But he hates me. For no reason! Omg. Hes so sweet/cute/fine and I really like him. People try to convince me he likes me but I just know he doesn't. I know this sounds dumb and all but I started cutting myself just because I think my life was horrible [in my opinion] and now this to make it worse! I cant stand It but i like him so much. I want to stop cutting SO bad because its really not the right thing! Please help me with suggestions to stop! I really dont wanna ruin my life by a stupid mistake I made.


Sincerely,
Bloody Wrists.

Dear Bloody Wrists,
Just because some guy doesnt like you,
doesnt mean you should start cutting.
In my opinion, people only cut because
they think this will ease the pain on the inside.
But that is NOT true. You could kill yourself
if you put the 'cutting item' too far into your wrists.
If this boy, James, doesnt realize you're doing
all of this for him, he is not the right guy and you should definitely move on.

Dear Anonymous,
Try dove shampoo and conditioner.
And then after that, you could maybe straighten your hair, because that will ease the frizziness.

Ok I'm going to a party tomorrow and am being introduced to a guy. Any tips on what I should wear or how I should do my makeup/hair? I don't want to dress like a skank but I don't want to be too conservative either.
I have really long curly dark hair with red streaks (curly) but I can straighten it, really tanned skin, brown eyes, and a slighty curvy figure.
Thanks

you dont have to dress all fancy and such, just be yourself, because if you act like somebody else, that can lead to trouble later.

im 15/f. i've been best friends with this girl since i was in second grade. we're both sophmores. from second grade to seventh grade, we were like the best of friends. but, in eighth grade, she decided that quantity was more important to her than quality! so, now I feel like having 100 friends is more important to her. and it makes me feel really sad because she's like a sister to me. now it's like she has a new best friend. on top of that, she's been acting like a pain in the rear. she thinks she's so popular and so this and so that. she's just acting like a totally strange person and i feel like i don't even know her anymore. she's goes on vacation the whole summer because most of her family lives in europe. so, when she comes back, i just want things to be the way they use to be. i don't want to hang out with this big group of "friends" that she's fabricated. i want it to be the way it use to be and that whenever we went to the movies and stuff like that the group was just me and her with a whole bunch of guys. it was so much fun. what can i do to make her be that person again?

People come and go, but if you dont like how she has been acting, confront her. Tell her your feelings. If she still doesnt care what you say or what you think, just move on. Theres about
100000 billion people in the world, so go have fun with a new friend. ;)

Lately, I have been having really bad food cravings. Im not fat, 110 pounds, but I think that if I keep eating, I will be fat. I was wondering if there is a good way to kick the cravings. Thanks!

Instead of eating lots of food, excercise.You could jog in place or walk up and down the stairs. Excercise kickstarts your metabolism and you feel like you just ate.
Also, dont drink diet sodas.
Like diet pepsi, or diet coke, etc.
Because they have something in it that will make you crave sugar later.

The best advice is to drink lots of water,
or drink milk.
