Q: I always do stuff with the same two people. Their my best friends but I want to do stuff with other people. I just find it hard. When ever I call my friends from school they have something going on. I also have like no social life. I'm sixteen years old (female) and I've never been to a party (like a high school party). I really want to be more social..please help.

Just tell your friends how u feel, if they are your true friends they would understand and let you socialise with other people.

Q: i'm 15 female and I noticed that I sort of have a fat face, it's not like really fat, But I don't want it to be fat anymore, how can I get ride of it?..I'm not really a fat girl either, I'm aout 125lbs. I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Thanks in advance

The easiest thing to do is exercises and little diets. thats the first thing that comes to mind , plus it is probably the best thing to do.

Q: how do you make huge pictures smaller. because i have a large picture that i want to put in the general myspace so that it is little. you know? well i do. but i hope someone can help me!

If you have a programme called 'paint' then try using that , most people use it.

Q: My boyfriend and i would like to do something. We never know what we should do and we just want to have fun. what are some ideas of things that we can do, he hurt his hip so we can't walk and can't use his right arm cuz he hurt it. Please help us out.....
NO SEX!!!!!!
(or nudity for that matter)

Theres the Cinema , you sit down , it's fun , romantic, no arms needed. i think it is perfect in this situation.

Q: i've known my boyfriend since i was in eigth grade, im about to go to 11th anyways i've always known him as the guy to have girls all over him, and ive always known him as the guy to be allover other girls, he says he loves me and i believe he does he is a good guy but ibeen hurt so many times before how do i know if he says what he means

I think you should casualy ask your boyfriend if he would ever lie to you in anyway. You could try to ask him that whenever he lies if he does anything e.g twitching, scrathing.

Q: does anyone know any good kinds of powder coverup ..the ones where you use a brush to apply?? and i dont want expensive ones, so under $10 or so would be good

Try foundation, or tanning stuffm things like that. But realy it depends on what type of coverage you are wanting. try shops like boots or clairs accesories.

Q: 14/f

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of any stores that have clothes for people with bigger bodies, sort of like plus size clothes and stuff, but nice clothes. I know aeropostale has good clothes, but their shirts are short and I don't like them very much. All I'm really looking for are casual clothes stuff that goes good with jeans and shorts. Thanks guys = ]

There is a clothes store called evans. i have been there before but not shopping for me. good prices and stylish clothes.

Q: Okay, it's simple. I have liked this guy for a year and a half and considering he likes my best friend, its pretty clear he is never going to like me (we're also going to different high schools). For a while he knew I liked him, but I finally gave up and made him, along with everyone else, think I didn't like him anymore. We are best friends now but I still have really strong feelings for him, although I keep them well hidden. What am I supposed to do? I don't want to say I love him, although I've never felt like this about anyone and I've liked plenty of guys. I just need good, clear advice to help me through this.

ok, I think you shouldn't tell him straight away that you love him , it could be too fast , try general questions to find out if he likes you , then if he does then try to show your feelings slowly, if not then i think it would be better off inside so you don't lose the friendship between you and your friend.

Q: Ok. So i just got six new babie jack russels from my brother's dog. The only problem is I don't know what to name the one we are keeping. It's to young to determine if its a boy or girl so plz give me both! I'lll rate 5's on everyone if you follow the guidline. Here's the Guidline...example names:

Boy names Girl names

Spot Ginger
Bingo Sugar
Grizzly Lady
Flash Lassie

Thank you so much for all your answers. Plz give at least 2 names for both. I appreciate it greatly!!!!

my nextdoor nighbour had a girl labrador called levy, i thought it was a lads name. i would say another name would be pepsi. may be a drink but a good and different name for a dog.

Thanks for your help!

Your cat is juts making his/her mark of the house. so he/she knows it is her/his property. Try another litter box in your room just incase this happens again. hope i helped

15/f

Just give him a big card. I would give him money in his card, and chocolates. hope i helped.

Just be yourself.. if you pretened to be something then they fall for you they are falling for something that is totaly different from yourself. if you be yourself then they would fall for you and it be alright and perfect as they fall for the you that you are. i got this from school=
the you'll you see is the you you'll be

Q: lately, i've been really sensitive. i usually dont let my mom get to me but she yells at me and i feel like crying. why am i being so sensitive all of a sudden????

It is just your emotions, you only cry if you are sad, unhappy. something is troubling you maybe someone at school , maybe your mum by shouting. hope i helped.

Q: i dont get it...i only got 4 hours of sleep last night and i was very tired throughout the day but i cant fall asleep now! i've been trying for hours. all i do is lay there with an empty mind..not thinking about anything...how could i fall asleep?

I do that. Just close your eyes and wait to go to sleep if it doesn't work i always watch tely in my room untill i feel very slepy. that is if you have 1. hope i helped.

Q: if your boyfriend and you are making out and he is doing all the touching and kissing and you just sitting there getting all the pleasure what should i do in return? also if he trys to kiss you once but you turned away your face because you were shy what can you do you make that person want to kiss you or should i make the first move on him with kissing?

If you think it is the right time to be kissing him then i think you should start it. Don't turn your head, if you dont want to kiss him you put a figer on his lips. and say something. in return just kiss him but your own way, when, how. hope i helped.

Q: How can Something eg.school infuence your identity??? easy 5's for first 5 people

You friends and teachers they are your peers. people can expaned you identity people will know you. so really it makes your identity expand / get bigger.

Q: Well I'm 11yrs of age(I know its a little young but I'm in year 6)I'm a girl and I really like this boy at school. And I think he doesn't like me(as a crush). I can't ask my friends to ask him and I can't ask him myself(itll be really embarrasin)so how can i find out & how do i get him 2 like me?

Since all them options are taken i supose you could ask his friend to ask him if he likes you. try talking to him more. it will build up your confidence arouhnd him. then you can get to know him. make him like you and then you can ask him if he likes you. Hope i helped.
