What else can I say other than my name and age? I don't have much to say.
I guess I shall mention that I tend to fall into extremely depressive spells and just as easily fall out of them. I've lost most joy in life and have found that the only lasting joy is helping others. So thus you have it.

does anyone know and good, depressing, sad songs? not that im sad or anything, but i love listening to them, like sad songs by evanescence. does anyone know any other good ones? (link)

I would suggest something like Hyaline, though their CDs and such might be difficult to find anywhere other than online. I suggest you check online first and foremost to listen to the samples on their site.
Also, Never Alone - Barlow Girl
The Cranberries and The Goo Goo Dolls are also good bands for such music. Alanis Morisette, too.

Weak fingernails can be a challenge to toughen up. If you have weak fingernails, the following tips can help you protect them, making your nails less likely to split or break.
-Keep your nails short, square-shaped and slightly rounded on top. Trim brittle nails after a bath or a 15-minute hand-soak in bath oil. Then apply a moisturizer.
-Apply a moisturizer each time you wash your hands. If your nails are brittle, moisturize your nails and cuticles at bedtime and cover them with cotton gloves.
-Apply a nail hardener, but avoid products containing toluene sulfonamide or formaldehyde. These chemicals can cause redness or irritate the skin.
-Don't use nail polish remover more than twice a month. Instead, touch up the polish. When you do need a remover, avoid those that use acetone, which dries nails.
-Repair splits or tears with nail glue or clear polish.
Also, general proper nail care:
-Protect your nails. Wear cotton-lined rubber gloves when using soap and water for prolonged periods or when using harsh chemicals. Gloves help protect your nails when washing dishes, for example.
-Avoid abusing your nails. Don't use them as tools to pick, poke or pry things.
-Don't bite your nails or pick at your cuticles. These types of habits can damage the nail bed. Even a minor cut alongside your nail can allow bacteria or fungi to enter and cause an infection (paronychia). Because your nails grow slowly, an injured nail retains signs of an injury for several months.
-Moisturize your nails frequently. When you're moisturizing your hands, rub the lotion into your nails as well.

Does anyone know any really good girl books a 7th grader at the age of 13 would like?
Thanks. I'll rate 5's. (link)

I love reading. I suggest these books for you to read now and any other time. ((Note that some/most of these aren't really "girl" books but are rather for either gender.))
-Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery ((the entire series is a good read))
-Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte ((Serious, heartbreaking romance))
-Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
-Sweet Miss Honeywell's Revenge - Kathryn Reiss ((Horror novel))
-Everworld by K.A. Applegate ((Very interesting fantasy series))
-To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee ((Don't be discouraged by the title, it has nought to do with killing fowl.))
-The Best Little Girl in the World by Levenkron, Steven ((I've yet to read this, but it sounds good, it's about a girl suffering of anorexia nervosa))
-Island of the Blue Dolphins by O'Dell Scott
-Black Mirror by Nancy Werlin
-The Night I Disappeared by Julie Reece Deaver
-The Wish List by Eoin Colfer
-How To Disappear Completely and Never Be Found by Sara Nickerson
-The Series of Unforunate Events series
-Anything by Mary Higgins Clark
-Anything by Anne McCafferey
And I HIGHLY reccommend The Woman in the Wall by Patrice Kindl.
Other than that, I just suggest you go to your school library, figure out what genre you're in the mood for and look for books of that genre and read the summaries on the book to get an idea if you might be interested in it. Happy reading. =3

Ok here goes, I am an advice giver and everything but I can't fix this problem. I go to a school where there is a whole bunch of guys. I have a major crush on one of them but every time I make a move on a guy I like, I get these kinds of remarks such as "You should jump off a bridge and save yourelf the embarassment of actually having a love life". Remarks like these are said to me everyday and somehow they have etched themselves into my head and they won't go away. Now it seems like the only way to get rid of them is to commit suicide. I have thought about it many times but I want help. Please answer back. I don't know how much more of these remarks I can stand. (link)

People who are like that are low-lifes without any reason to be alive. It's hard, but you should try to ignore them. Defend yourself and get your friends to defend you to. If your friends won't, find friends who will.
Now, onto a serious matter. If you are seriously considering suicide you should consult someone. A school counsellor, a family member, a doctor or another adult or just someone who can get you the help you need. Suicide is a serious matter and even the slightest mention of it should be taken serious.
When the matter has gotten to the point of suicide, the problem should be taken to a proffesional rather than a group of people online.
I don't want to write another 5 paragraph lecture on this like I normally do, because I'm sure you know most of this by now. Suicide is not the solution, it is not the way out. Suicide is the beginning of an even worse situation.
I wish you the best of luck with this situation and hope that you find the solutions that are so much better than suicide.

I’m 14/f and no one have ever asked me out on a date. I am not ugly in fact I recently learned that the boys from my old school which I left 1 ½ years ago thought I was the prettiest girl in the class. I am extremely shy and I really can’t flirt. Also usually even if I like someone I am very cold to them for a long time, it’s like a protective action. But now I just feel so lonely! (link)

Honey, this is a usual occurence in lives of teenage girls. Being only 14, you have plenty of time to date. For the lonliness problem I suggest that you make some friends first. Friends are good confidence boosters. Not just female friends, of course. Make friends with just some guys that you think you could get along with. They don't have to be anyone that you have a crush on. Once you've gotten a bit more comfortable around guys you might come out of your shell. When I was in 6th grade I would have these very very small "Hi how are you I'm fine see ya" conversations with guys and that was that. Then, I made friends with guys in orchestra class and slowly felt more confident in talking to guys. Everything will set its course in due time.
