Hey I'm Tricia. I've been through a lot of stuff, like divorce, depression, relationships, dying hair, & bad days! I'm always here to help.

advice

what are some good songs or artists that sing songs that are like ..live it up to the fullest and just be happy and such ..and good songs ? ill rate 5's and thanks!

The Killers' songs are really happy, surprisingly. "Change Your Mind", "Everything Will Be Alright", & "Smile Like You" mean it are their happiest. The whole Killer's CD puts me in a good mood.
I don't like happy music personally so I'm don't really know what all is out there.
Skies So Blue - The Rocket Summer is also a happy song.

Good luck!

What songs are easy to start singing with? People tell me to sing whatever song I want but it's not helping, because I don't sound like the person and it makes me try harder[it messes up my voice]. So any suggestions?

I'm working with "My heart will go on"
Any more songs?

A lot of Rachel Lampa songs help me. Her voice is strong, but you can tone them down a bit. A lot of the notes are easy to sing.

Also, Amazing Grace is a good song.

Her brother wouldn't be much of a best friend or a brother if he got in the way of you and her. I say you should go for it and ask her out! Good luck & please rate.

Me and my bf has been trough a lot ....just to be toghether
I had a big fight with his parents...(I post it on advicenators)..The problem was only with his parents..so we had his brothers and sisters coming to visit us almost everyday and that is fine but now it is getting to much ..we don't have privacy in our home and it is costing us to much money to have 4 extra people in house using electricity ,food and water .I have to cook for 6 people almost everyday ....and this cost money!!!!!!!

Last week the brother of my bf desided to stay for about 4 days and my bf did't ask for my permision..the thing is we have our computer in the bedroom ..he stayed on the computer
(with the radio on)till 6 o clock in the morning 3 nights in a row..The fourth day I told my bf that this is gettin to much ...we are only students and we can't afford to be spending so much money and that I couldn't sleep for 3 days long because of the noice..He told me that he was sorry but he did't know that his brother was gone stay for so long

I don't know what he told his brother but....
he got all mad and stuff ..the worst is he came last night and did't say hi to me and today he wrote ..."I don't need your house anymore to chat...thank God I have my own house to chat till the time I want"....on his msn

I really tryed to stay in peace with them because I don't want my bf to get in a fight with his brother for my sake ..BUT THIS IS GETTING TO MUCH!!!!!
How can he has the nerve to write something like that..after all I did for them

The worst is I'm feeling very sad...and anger ..

I wrote back to him telling him he is a ungratefull dog....I was very mad

Did I do wrong ......what should I do next??

I agree that it is too much for students definetly to pay for extra people around the house. You also cant be staying up because of distraction. I think you had every right to say what you did! I agree with you, he was an ungratefull dog! Don't feel bad, you had to do what you had to do. Make sure your boyfriend is okay with everything! Good luck & please rate.

well my boyfriend is having a birthday party in a while and there will be a ton of people there. But its at his house so his mom and dad will be there. I want to look good but i also dont want to look all slutty so any ideas of what to wear?
thanks,
Katie
[by the way im 13/f]

Well, here are some of my ideas::

Short skirt - You could wear it maybe half way down the length from your knee to all the way to the end of your leg. Make sure it does rise up or curl up so you aren't showing anything!

Long skirt - one that maybe goes to your knees or lower. They are bohemian looking and they are very flattering. They also are in right now so you'd have a good deal with that.

Jeans - You can wear nice jeans, holes are optional. Sometimes they make them look a little more trashy. Make sure they are nice & clean, & they would look good as well.

Shirt - You can wear like a nice top without it looking slutty. They have a ton at Khol's & Target!

Hope your boyfriend has a great birthday party! Good luck & please rate.

okay, so i have had a sunburn for about a week and a half and now its starting to peel and its grossing me out so i was wondering how can i fix the peeling.

i rate

You can't get rid of the peeling, but aloevera gel helps it feel better. You'll just have to stick it out until it all goes away. Good luck & please rate.

do u think that i should kiss my bf or wait until he kisses me? I am very lost but what should i do?

PLEASE HELP

If you feel like your boyfriend isn't going to in a while, you may need to take charge & kiss him first. If you want to get anywhere in your relationship, you can't be afraid to push it along a bit, just like in this instance. Good luck & please rate!

I'm a really fast girl and I beat all the boys so nobody really admires me except for my speed I need help on how to look like ( i dress sporty)so i need all the advice that I cAN GET!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, you should where some nice girly jeans that show off your figure, then where some girl tops. Not t-shirts, but baby tees. They aren't revealing but show your feminine side. Also, don't only talk about sports or stuff like that. Talk about other things you enjoy. Good luck & please rate!

I have these two friends and they both lie at times. To me at times...and well one day they were asking weight. And I said I'm 160 and she said 120. now she's pretty fat and she can't in no way be 120. I was really stunned at her effort to lie. I don't want to confront her but she makes me feel like i can't trust her again.

What do I do? help me please cause it relly hurts me she lied.

You have to confront her. I had a friend who lied all the time & I never did anything about it. Once I confronted her, she started to stop & stopped all together after a while. Tell her that it hurts you when she lies. Good luck & Please rate

ok so here is a conversation i had with this guy that i like and i can't figure what exactly he meant in his last text message so i'm gonna type the whole conversation and i want you to tell me wat you think he means. I'll rate 5's to everyone that gives me an opinion. O and my name is *Debbie* and his is *Nathan* And this conversation was at 11:30 last night.

Nathan---how about we give what we both want a chance and see how good we really are together. hit me back adn let me know what you think you might like.

Debbie---in shock didn't reply for a minute

Nathan---are you going to text back anytime soon i would really like to know what you think before i go to sleep, i guess i could just call you.

Debbie---Well depends on what you really want.

Nathan---You know what i really want what is it you want.

Debbie---No i don't think i know what you want.

Nathan---I want you and you do know that what do you want, I wouldn't mind there being an US but that would be up to you. but what do YOU want.????

Debbie---(i sent this one to the wrong place)I want there to be an us to.

Nathan---are you there can i get a response please, just leaving me hangin ain't cool you know. I will call you in the morning but i want you to text me.

Debbie---I sent it to your phone instead of your screenname but i want to be with you.

ok this is where i get confused.

Nathan---i never got it but *that's good* i'll call you later ok.

Are we dating? What does *that's good* mean?

Thanks signed
really confused

I think he meant "thats okay" instead of "thats good", because I've made that mistake while I was typing, even when I am talking. Just keep talking to him about it & don't jump to conclusions. I hope everything works out! Good luck & please rate.

I have been with my b/f for about a yr and a half now. We have definitely had our ups and downs. Last year i was at a friends house and one of my b/f's good friends showed up. He asked if i wanted to hang out. Went to his house and he put the moves on me. I refused to have sexual contact with him. Even though i had the urge to. He told me that he was sorry and that he couldnt help but wonder why i was with this other guy and that he thought i was pretty.

Ever since that time, he always makes comments to my b/f about how my b/f doesnt treat me right. Or he will joke around about how im his type. We live in a tight-knit town where everyone knows everyone. I see this guy everyday and he always smiles or stares and then looks away.

My major problem is that im finding more and more that im not in-love with my bf anymore as he has become physically violent.

My sister-in-law thinks that i should leave my bf and go with this guy. I am quite tempted as he and i have so much in common and he knows how to treat a lady. I also have a medical condition where i cannot have children. And this guy has full custody of his little girl. Every time i see him with her i melt because he is such a good father.

Am i wrong for wanting to try and have a relationship with this other guy?
And do you think he would be interested in trying to have a relationship?

If your boyfriend is physically violent, then you need to leave him before you get hurt badley. The other man sees much nicer and understanding, & I think that it would be better for you if you went with him instead of your current boyfriend. I hope everything works out in your situation! Good luck & please rate.

so last night i got really drunk and cheated on my bf and i cant even remember what the guy looked like (i hope he wasnt ugly lol) but the problem is i dont feel guilty about it at all and i know thats not normal..so does this mean i should mabey reconsider the relationship i have right now with my boyrfriend?

If you don't feel guilty, that means there is something wrong in your relationship. I, personally, think that you should reconsider your relationship, & think about if you really value it as much as you should. If you find you don't, then you should move on. I hope everything works out in your situation. Good luck & please rate.

Anyone have a myspace? Someone made a fake one about me and I want to know who the person is. How do I report them or how can i tell who they are?
Thanks
i rate 5s

If you go to Tom's myspace & go to "mail", it will have a section for that or something along the lines of that. You send it & he can delete the myspace. I hope everything works out! Good luck & please rate.

Well I'm going swimming tomorrow. Today I had my period for the first time and I tried a tampon. It was really hard to get out. I tried pulling it out in different directions and I tried like half a box of tampons and I'm pretty sure it's in correctly. The string almost broke when i tried to pull it out it hurts. My parents wont let me get in the water without a tampon and i cant sneak in without one because they check to make sure im not lying. Oh and ive tried the lowest absorbensy and lubricant stuff still doesnt help. Please help!

You have two choices here:
1. Go to the party and wear a tampon. This is gonna be a summer full of tons of swim parties, & you can't let your period get in the way of that.
2. Skip out on the party & wear a pad. You can stay at home & find some other plans that don't involve water!
I hope everything works out & you have a good time doing something. Good luck & please rate.

my friend kayla .. thought it would be a GREAT joke to IM my boyfriend and act like some girl looking to hook up .. and the thing is that kayla has a tendency to make things up .. or to invision things differently when she doenst like the person .. and she really really didnt like how my boyfriend treated me.

well she called me after she 'IMed him' as mandy moody, and he apparently asked her for pictures, her age, grade, and said that he had a girlfriend but wasnt thinking it would last much longer, becuase 'i didnt put out'.

so when i heard this, i got very hurt and very upset. and i tend to make snap decisions and judgements in the heat of hte moment .. so i broke up with him .. now i realize talkin to him would have been a better idea.

the more and more i think about it, the more and more it seems as if kayla maybe did say that just to get me to dump cody .. her own sort of motivation in a way .. because for someone who had such a problem with me not puttin out, he never made any moves .. all the things we did do I INITIATED! .. so i guess my question is .. what should i do .. try and talk to him .. see if i can get him to take me back .. how would be the best way to go about doing that?

guys opinion .. would you take someone who did that back ..?

i mean i wasn't completely happy with how he treated me, but i cant do this anymore. i cry constantly. the only time i dont cry is when i sleep, and then i dream about him. so i wake up and cry more .. i liked this kid for over a year. 7 months of that was trying to get over him. now ive dated him and fell harder, and now i have to give him up. what kills me is i didnt lose him, i let him go ...

I think you need to talk to your boyfriend & explain to him what happened. Then, try to get the truth from him. Ask him to tell you all of the conversation. Then, if what he says is different from what Kayla says, then I think you need to have a talk with her. Did you even have a say in this? Did you give her permission? You have to make sure you have a clear story from both sides. Then, you need to maybe talk to both of them at once.
& also, when you talk to your boyfriend, make sure that you tell him how deeply sorry you are and how much you love him.
I hope everything works out okay between the three of you, & that you don't lose a friend & a boyfriend. Good luck, & please rate.

Me and this guy name Marcus likes each other a lot and like we talk all the time and were really close but we live like 1 hour and a half away from each other and he said he thinks we will never date because of the distance and I dont know what to say or do now.. and like i'm really upset and i told him i was but he said theres nothing he can do.. what do i do?

I think the only thing you can do in this situation is roll with it. Just let him know that if he ever changes his mind, that you'll be there. This kind of situation is tough to deal with, but I think that is the only thing you can do. Good luck!

Okay there are these two boys they're best friends. Or atleast thats what Matt thinks but Jeff really hates Matt. Anyway I like Jeff all last summer he was sweet and alll this stuff and he liked me but nothing could happen becasue my best friend Maria liked him. So them I liked Matt who is SUPER HOTT funny cute nice but only sometimes. Other times he pissy and concided. Now its the end of the year. And my friend Sarah likes Jeff alot, but I think im starting to like him. Jeff always says he lves me and stuff and we always talk about Matt and how big of a dick he is and im so confused. So I want to know, if you were me what would you do?

Well, I have to say one thing to start us off here, your friends do not "own" a guy because they liked him first. I used to think that & I'd try not liking the guys I liked because my friend liked them. Your friends can't tell you who not to like, it's your choice.

Anyways, you have to choose which one you like more. Think about what you like about each of them, and then decide which one has the better character traits. Make sure you go with your heart & not with what your friends think. That is a big mistake that can lead you somewhere you'll end up unhappy.

I hope everything turns out okay for you.
