Okay, calm down. Your dad doesn't like them because your his baby. Usually dad's are like that. It's normal. Your dad doesn't like your boyfriend, or soon to be fiance because he was the one who got you pregant. You might be messing up your life with having this baby at this time of your life because it's so early and you haven't even gotten through college yet. Dad probably thinks that you had a lot going for you and that you're screwing it up. You need to marry the baby's father, that would be the proper thing to do seeing how your having his baby. If your dad can't accept that your not doing what YOUR DAD wants, then there's a problem. You're trying to do the best thing that you can for the baby right now. I give you a lot of respect for trying to be there for your baby. Not a lot of girls can do that. Just stick for what you want, but don't kill that baby and take care of it. You are the reason why it's here, and murder's a sin

ok first of all im not going to amifat.com or any website like that bcuz i dont trust them, i'd rather get advice from real people my age etc. so don't tell me to go to any website.
I've always been really skinny. People always think im anorexic and all my friends are like where do u put ur food? But i dont get my period every month probably because of it so i don't know how healthy my weight is. I'm about 5'6 and weigh about 103. Do YOU think thats healthy. Some of those crazy sites have told me it's not, and i wanna no what u think. thanx
It could be because of your metabolism or if you play sports, you burn it off. If this doesnt sound like you, go to the doctors or talk to your parents about it if your really concerned.

Im always grounded n it makes me soo mad! Tehy ground me for stupid reason and i dont no what to do! Every time i try to talk to them they dont listen and notthing changed! What should i do? Go for some real help??
You should really listen to them and hear where they're coming from. Don't argue with them but accept what they have to say, most of the time it's for a good reason. Sometimes. You should work to earn their respect, do extra things around the house and when they tell you to do them a favor.. Do it...

How can you tell if your depressed or going crazy is there any signs of it ?
Well... It's different for everbody but the obvious is upset when everyone is happy, you can't even smile when your friends are happy, cry for no reason, not in the mood to do anything except sit around or sleep all the time...

about 4 years ago, when i was 11 i met this guy, he is 4 years older than me. he was a counselor at one of the many camps i go to. he helped me a lot with stuff at camp, but after that week, i barely ever talked to him, until 2 years ago. he would call me every few months, and we would just catch up on things, and you know, just talk. he was a great counselor, but even better, he is a Christian and that helps me out so much because he can give me insight from what he knows God might say. He built me up, and helped me through many deaths of friends and friends families. he always knew what to say and when to say it. this past summer we have been EXTREMELY close, we talked almost 5 times a week. id would go visit him because he lives hours away from me. but i could only get up there a few times, and he only came down to me once. it wasnt much effort on his part, ive always realized that. well when he was helping me through a really hard time i was having one night, we decided we would be like brother and sister. he seemed to always be there and always ready to help me out. now after school has started and hes gone off to college im having a really hard time cause he never calls. just the onther night i finally wrote him and told him everything! i had to get out to HIM what i felt. i thought that things again would change... guess not... he still doesnt call, and doesnt make any effort to really talk. it bothers me so much... i love him like a brother more than anyone can ever imagine, but what can i do? i want him to be my number one.... but everyone of my friends that i live with dispise me that i have someone like this in my life...or had someone like that. even my best friend is harsh on me for thinking about him a lot. my real question is should i give up waiting for him to possibly return... or should i keep waiting..... ???
((i think you might know who i am))

I know it's hard what you're going through, to hold onto someone that is very close to you, who doesn't seem like they are there anymore. He's helped you through some of your toughest times, and he has been one of only a few whom you can trust. It sounds like he's in college, which means lots of studies and crictuliar activities. Give it and him some time, as the saying goes "Keep on Keeping on" don't let him go, but don't hold onto that phone and expecting it to ring all the time. Praying will only help you and your situation. I'd say he's busy with school work and he might have some problems of hsi own, it's not you're fault, but maybe he can only take on his problems right now, and he may think that by you calling or writing that you might have a problem and he's not quite ready to handle on someone else, plus himself right now. College are suppose to be the supposible "fun years" but can be very hard and stressful. Let him come to you. All you can do is pray and keep having fun with your friends. All you can do is wait, and i'm not saying it WON'T be hard, because it will. Part of your heart is breaking because he's a big piece of your life. Try to glue some of the pieces back on, and when he comes back, all will be fair. Just hold on, and let the rollercoaster go it's ride, it might be bumpy, but it will get smoothe.
Hope I helped.. ( i love you ) yes i know who you are.

has anyone here become pregnant at a young age? please tell me ur story, im 15 and 3 weeks pregnant, n i dont know if i should get an abortion. what did ur parents say and do?
Alright, have you told your parents yet? And No babe, don't get an abortion. Seriously, if you're going to have a kid, take care of it. How would you murder your own blood? Take care and love that baby. I haven't had a kid yet, and i won't until marriage, but if your going to be doing that stuff and you get pregant, deal with the consequences don't try to clear them. You just wasted a baby's life, YOUR baby's life. How could you even think about abortion?

okay, i've done out with this boy lets say.. *mike* 2 times. once one year, and once the next. i've liked him for like 3 years. the first time he asked me out, it lasted 3 months, and i dumped him for reasons that werent his fault. the 2nd time i asked him out and he dumped me for my friend but he totally like hates it now. so now this year we both like eachother and i still really like him but should i just give up on going out with him or what?? i dont know what to do? this may sound dumb and i dont really know how to explain it but if you get it then please help me! lol thanx sorry its so long
I think both of you are coming back to eachother for a reason, "everything happens for a reason". I think that's so cool that you guys keep falling for eachother. I think you should give it another shot, see what happens, what's the worst that could happen? You both have liked eachother for quite sometime now, give it another shot. You guys might be *Meant* to be if it's been going on for this long, now.
Hope i helped

I'm loosing it! 28yrs, recently married 3 months ago. Let's just say it hasn't been a bed of roses.
1st there's my stepson. 8yrs. Has grown up mostly alone with just his Dad. Spoilt brat! So I'm working day by day to be the stepmother, but in his eyes it's just EVIL STEPMOTHER. He is very rude, spiteful, headstrong, and most of the time does what he pleases if I don't put my foot down.
Now ontop of that I'm dealing with my husband (29yrs) who recently discovered he suffers from Panic/stress/anxiety attacks and hypertension. He moans evryday about how ill he feels, and I have to remain quiet & supportive. When I try to speak to him about anything, from his son, to his "condition" he tells me I am making it worse! He uses his stressful job and the stress of life as an excuse. I love him dearly & I am trying very hard to cope with his son, and him. I have suggested we take his son to a Therapist & that he see another Dr, for a 2nd opinion on his health, or even a Therapist to help him cope with every day stresses. He freaked out! Today, I lost it, and told him to get over himself, and that he should realise that he's not the only one dealing with stress. It's not the first time I've lost my cool either. We've been fighting alot recently because of everything going on. I really don't know what else to do. He and my stepson are driving me to the edge. I'm trying so hard to be strong, cause my husband's not well. But having to deal with this moaning evry day and my stepson are now taking it's toll. To top it off, my husband wants us to start trying for a baby, I desperatly want to too, but then I;m thinking "An ill husband, a terror of a stepson and a newborn baby? NO WAY!"
As much as I love him, and I want to be a good stepmother to his son, I feel as if I just want to run away because I can't handle all of this anymore.
life has it's ups and downs, right now its at the down side, everythings pouring down at you at once and you just need sympathy and someone who will listen to you and relax you from your pain. i am soon to have a step mother, she's a sweet person. but i got kind of upset because i wasn't spending enough time with my father, and i missed him a lot. i told her that once in awhile if it was okay if he could just take me home, because there was things i needed to talk to MY father about. Anyways, my point is that maybe theres something inside of him that's hurting or he misses his real mother, birth mother. i understand that your having a hard time with family issues at home, and then a kid around the house can be stressful, but maybe sometime when your husband isn't around, talk to him about how he feels about you and cope with him about it, talk to him about somethings that are going on in your life. If i had the chance to get closer with my step mom, i would. i love her, but we both...we can't stand eachother. because of her, i haven't seen my father in months..and he forgot my last birthday- talk to him about it, because if he feels threatened by you, which may be the case- you need to talk to him and be there for him. Maybe he misses that sympathetic one, the person that tucks him into bed or gives him a kiss goodnight, you know? the things mom would do. I konw you will never be his full mom, but i think he needs to know that you're there. start going to a therapist and talking about your issues, or even join a yoga class or something, no wait.. Go to a massage therapist, something relaxing and something for you. If you need me again, ask me. i'm here.
Hope I helped.

Ok, there's 2 people you'll have to know for this there's:
Steph: she's a sweet 9 year old girl, she lived next door to me, and she moved 4 months ago
Adam: He is Steph's big step brother, he's 14. he came every other weekend to Stephs house.
well, I had this biiig crush on Adam,a nd I was soo sad when they left. it all hit me as i watched the moving van drive off, that I loved him, I started crying remembering all the great memories. we've played spin the bottle he kissed me, that was my first kiss. and my last. it was just a kiss on the cheek, but it really ment a lot to me. well, a few weeks after Steph moved, I IMed Adam, and told him I Liked him. we hadn't talken ever since. or at least till yesterday, he e-mailed me. he told me that he really loved me back, and that he was going to tell me in real life, apperently he came over last Saturday, but I was at a biig choir performance. I couldn't belive it, i'm about ready to go nuts!!!I don't know what to do, he lives 3 hours away, I dont' have his phone number or anything. sombobdy please help me, I'll give out 5's!!!
I think you two should talk more, maybe he'll ask you for your number soon, and you two will get closer. Talk to him about visiting again. It sounds like you two have the same feelings toward eachother, so you two should have no problem. Talk more and become better friends. Maybe he'll come soon to come and see you. It will be awkward at first because you both i'm sure will be a little shy since you both know that you like eachother, but just be really sweet to him, but don't smother him all the time. I think this is so cute. I love that story. I hope everything works out, if you need anything just send me a question! MLynch85

Well there's this girl who I dated and me and her went through a stage of hating eachother after we broke up and now we're cool again and i said i hated her before but i didnt at all and now that we're cool im just wondering how i should act around her? I still love her alot and i want to be with her again but im not sure how she feels and i dont really want to know rite now but i dont know how i should act towards her to get her to want to be with me again...if you could help me out then thank you very much.
16 yr old dude
Just give you and her some time to think things through of how you and her feel about eachother because you both just got out of it sounds a serious relationship. For right now, be friends, discuss things. But if you two want to get back together, or she likes you again. Talk about what happened and how you both feel. Just act like you normally would, but be a good friend, she needs someone she can talk to, and someone thats sensitive.

wow, my life is weird i dont know what to do any more.sometimes i just think about being somone else .. thats what i really want. i hate me,my life everying it seems like nothing ever goes right lets just say im not part of the popular people.. like you lol and im not like so unpopular either but i dont know im just sick of my life i wanna fit in but i dont get the good grades i want to be like the best but im not good at ANY THING im dumb ugly and not good at sports.
sincerly,
anything will help
Popularity, grades, sports and none of that makes a difference of how you look or why or why not your popular. It doesn't matter how you look, how athletic you are how unpopular you are.. Maybe your struggling with other challenges. You have you love yourself first before anyone else can love you. You can't let the small stuff sweat. Try harder in your classes, maybe talk to a classmate in your spare time. Take a couple sporting events if that even helps any, do something that your interested in that could boost your confidence. Being alone and not doing anything, won't help anything. You're not dumb, and i'm sure you're not ugly. You have to find the high point in yourself, not just you, Everyone gets that lonely feeling. i'm sure you have a lot of people in your life that care about you. Give them and yourself, a chance. Popularity isn't everything.

hey well....my ex boyfriend and me were best friends b4 we went out...(the entire reason i didnt wanna date him) but now that we broke up after almost a year of dating every time i read something about relationships being torn apart i break down and cry...but now that he broke up with me ive started to cut myself and go into deep depressions...i want him bak bc when i was with him...there was never a time when i wasnt happy...he could make me smile no matter how sad i was...he might have made a few mistakes but so have i...i juss want him to b happy but i also juss want him to say that in order for him to b happy he needs to b with me...i also started smokking when he broke up with me...idk what to do...my life is going to hell since he broke up with me...idk waht to do...i want him bak but i want him to b happy...
signed ~*lost...
P.S.- y cant i b happy???
I had my first love last year, it's a tough time.. We were friends at first then grew to more than that. It will be a tough road ahead. Talk to people about how you feel, don't keep things locked up inside of you, because if something happens then it will all blow way out of proportion. Cutting yourself and smoking wont resolve anything, you're begging for attention. I think you need to go to a counselor and get things straightened out, or better yet, talk to him about how you feel and how close you two were before this all happened and what it meant to you. You can't force him to be with you, and I don't expect you to force him. But I respect what you said about how you want him to be happy, because he does need to be. You have to think about waht he wants now. It will be a long road ahead before you get over him, but I promise you, you will never forget him. Keep youre head up. Stop the cutting and quit the smoking, it will only make things worse. Tell him how you feel, alone.
Hope I helped.

i guess this might be a stupid question, but something kind of depresses me. my boyfriend asked me last night would it be okay if he spent new years with his guys this year. he said that him and i spent the last 2 new years together and he wants to hang with his friends. ofcourse i said yeah, because im not the controling type. well, even though i said yes, it makes me a little sad knowing that he doesnt want to spend it with me. its like, why cant i chill with his friends too? its not like i never had. do any of you guys think i should tell him how i feel? or do any of you think that im wrong for feeling the way i feel?
thanks for your time.
18/f
No, it's normal to over react about that, especially since you two have been together for a long time. Maybe somethings up. Or maybe he just wants to spend it with the guys and do guy stuff, you know? I think you should talk to him about it, but be respectful and hear him out. You don't need this to turn into a huge deal/fight. Just hear what he has to say but also tell him how you feel. It's normal feeling that way.
Hope I helped,
