I love to hang out with my friends, and go to the movies and shop. I am seriously a big social person, I love to talk. I have some serious problems of my own, but most likely I can relate to what you're talking about. So give me your best shot and I'll see what I can do. :-)

how can i tell my friends what's happening??

Yes it is completely normal to feel like it isn't happening. It is a lot to take in. Tell your friends who you really trust first. Then when it comes closer to the time you can tell more people. But talk to your really good friends, they'll help you.


hello i would really like a boyfriend. do you know any ideas on how to get one? than you! (link)
Well first of all let me tell you that you can't just get a boyfriend. I mean, you can and all, it's possible, but make sure you like the guy. Because if you don't like the guy where is the point?

But I do have some pointers:

Do not suck up to the guy, he will find out. Try not to be completely obvious. Because if you are obvious, he will notice and think you're desperate.

Try and find a lot you have in common with the guy and make conversation. But if you know nothing about what he's talking about don't pretend you do. I promise you it will backfire in your face.

Whatever you do don't put out that is horrible. You do not want a boyfriend that is only going out with you because you'll do things with him. That just gives you a horrible reputation.

Compliment him and just try and strengthen your friendship. Drop a few hints but not a lot. Like joke around with him and be like "Wow you have really big muscles" trust me guys really like that, it's like a huge compliment.

Okay, but the guy may not like you. So if you get that vibe then kind of back off. I'm not saying completely stop trying, but if he doesn't like you there isn't a point getting worked up over nothing.

Sorry if I was harsh because I don't mean to be. Hope I help you!

one of my really good friends is going out with this guy, and this guy has been flirting with me and told me that he wnated two girlfriends and that he might want to take a break with her so he can get to know me better and other girls. and he has really been triyng to make moves and stuff and i wasnt sure waht to do. i told him to back off but he wouldnt listen, so i told my friend..everything. she decided to keep going out with him but i know hes been doin it wiht other girls but i dont want her to think all i want is for them to break up i just dont want her to get hurt. i dont know if theres anything i can do now since she knew all this but is still goin out with him, but there might be one last thing i could do. any suggestions?

My best advice would be to tell your friend exactly what you told me. I know you don't want her to get hurt, because we all know that's no fun. Why don't you just tell her, maybe in person is best, that you really think she should reconsider going out with this guy. Tell her that you're afraid he might be flirting with other girls. I think what you did by telling her was the right thing to do. But why don't you just tell her you don't want her to get hurt. If she won't listen and continues going out with the guy, then you might just have to let her get hurt and learn from it. Hope I helped you!
