18/f. let me tell you a little about myself...
-i go to college 20 minutes away, i commute.
-all my friends left me to go to college EXCEPT
one
-i've never had a boyfriend, yet i've been told i'm gorgeous too many times to count
-i'm outgoing when i want to be and overall i'm a nice person
-i have trust issues but i open up to people way too easily
-i miss high school, those were the best times of my life..

thing is, i feel like im depressed. since all my friends left for college i dont do ANYTHING and really i'm getting sick and tired of it. i go to school everyday, come home take a nap, do homework, watch tv and go to bed. on the friday's usually i'll hang out with my friend that goes to a community college here (one of my best friends) on saturday's i won't do anything. i'll work, come home do a little homework and then do nothing. it's just hard for me right now i feel so alone. i have friends from high school that i can hang out with but i feel so pathetic hanging out with them, and my family is always like why do you still hang out with high schoolers? me and my best friend say we're going to go to all the colleges and visit everyone, but it's never going to happen. we have too different of schedules. sometime's i just sit in my room and cry. nobody knows im like this i pretend like everything is okay and that i'm having fun because really i don't want people to feel bad for me. i feel like i'm not good enough for any boy. all the one's i like, don't like me back but there are SO many that do like me and they're like in 10th grade in high school, weird?! i feel like everyone is prettier than me and everyone has so much of a better life than me. i just have all these emotions sometimes i don't even feel like living anymore...i try to hang out with my best friend as much as possible but she is usually busy with work and school too. i go on facebook and myspace and see all these pictures of people going to parties, and having fun living their life while i'm at home by myself. i talk to people in my classes at school, but it's not the same..what should i do? i really can't take living like this anymore.... and it's NOT an option to live in the dorms..

You need a hobby or boyfriend something to keep you busy, and you don't sound like a bad person so don't go down on yourself. Keep your head held high. You don't need to be depressed if you look you'll find someone or something. Go girl!


my best friend and i just had a really big fight. and the fight was about how i frustrate her because i have low self esteem. ='[
i don't know what to do. i've been crying for an hour now and i feel so helpless and lost. most of my friends get annoyed with me i think. because i'm stupid and dumb.
see? low self esteem. i can't help it. it's not a problem that i can just make up my mind to fix. it doesn't work like that. i don't know what to do and i feel sick and lost. the person i'd call to talk to about this would be her, but she's the one that hurt me. she's basically all i have left. the other two people i want to talk to just to talk to someone won't answer their phones and i'm just so sick right now.
i don't know how to fix this. i just don't know. i feel lost. =[

Sometimes I feel down in the dumps like you.
I'm sorry I know it hurts deep down.
And I know there's no good way to mend a broken heart.
I have felt like this... Before.
Stand strong and try to get through this try to talk to your friends and tell them what you go through they might understand more then you think.
Goodluck,
-Sarah


can you smoke weed while you're on anit depressants? if not what happens if you do, can you die? (link)
YES! And you shouldn't do it it can kill you instantly.

Okay so I reeeally like this guy in my school. He's been my sister's friend for a long time and I've hung out with him a few times but never really talked to him. He's really hott and I really want to get to know him and stuff. But the problem is he's a senior and I'm only a freshman. So what should I do to get him to notice me and stuff? I have lunch with him on A days... xD Thanks. (link)
Well,
Make sure you are not interupting your sister's relation ship with the guy, and make sure she's cool with it cause no one likes family fueds, but if she's cool then you should if you really like him try to pursue a relationship with him. Be mysterious, wear cute clothes, and be yourself! GOODLUCK!

hey, okay, i'm a girl, 14, and i'm not fat but i'm not thin either, i would say i'm inbetween.
all my friends have had boyfriends or at least snogged someone. and i want a boyfriend!!! but i flirt, but after that i'm sort of a dud. and when my friends are all on the pull, i feel sort of awkward; because as sad as this is i'm sort of scared about my first kiss... what can i do? (link)
This has happen to me before. I have been boyfriendless when all my buds had them I know how you feel. What helped for me was fashion and sports. I started becoming more sporty, but also a fashion queen. It really helped me. Goodluck,
Sarah


Im under 20 and going to a concert this weekend. I haven't been to a rock concert before. Any ideas what to wear? Im a simple kind of girl and Im taking my boyfriend of a year, I've sort of slacked on the dressing up department, this concert is his kind of thing and I want to look good and be comfortable too. Any ideas? (link)
You should wear a cute but comfie tee and some shorts or jeans. Wear a cute necklace and a ponytail I think that is a cute but comfie outfit.


i'm emily, 16 and a junior. and there is this guy, i've known for quite a while. his locker has always been right by mine and we've had a couple of classes together. i can be shy when i first meet people but after a while i open up, he's the same way to. ever since i met him which was about 2-3 years ago he's always tried to strike a conversation but it never lasts that long, i've always had this little school girl crush on him and i feel since he's always trying to talk to me that maybe he likes me to, but how could i know for sure? i also want to get to know him more so maybe something oculd happen but what can i do to maybe start making more conversation? any conversation starters? thanks :) (link)
Just talk about school, and about teachers or classes. You could talk about a book he's reading or if he plays a sport ask him how the team's coming. You could also ask him if he has any pets. Or anything like that.

I'm gonna cut this story short. Me & My Bf..2 Boys... met them..got to know them...my bf hit it off...me and the other boy didnt..i wasnt happy about it...we started off having fun and then he got moody and didnt want to talk to me ands felt fed up ..we got home...i found out he did like me which is a bummer now because we live FAR from eachother..but he never told me..i found out from his other friend..my best mate when down to see them both[it was a party thing] [i couldnt go coz i was busy]but it took her forever to get there. the boy i liked was moody again, acknologed she was there but ignored her and didnt bother telling the boy that did like her. she watched him and said he was so moody the whole time and gave her dirty looks. she came all way to see him and he was rude to her...and when we were on holiday i felt so happy with him until he got moody...what is his problem with us? the other boy we're still great friends with..but we dont whats wrong with the other one...why would he be mean supposdly to someone he likes and my friend who has never done a thing wrong to him..ive tried to call him and stuff but not once have i got anything back..what's up with that (link)
Boys can be moody, but there's always a reason for it. He may have thought that you two were more than friends, and he didn't really relize you liked him. This is the best I can offer,
Contact Sarahreid for further questions,
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I like this guy and hes really cute.He goes to my school but is a grade lower than me. We tried to go out once before but we never really did. How do i know he likes me or some tips to get him to like me. I know i shouldnt care what he thinks but I feel like i wasnt that important s.
Thanks (link)
You'll know he likes you if he blushes when around you, knocks down iteams because he is busy staring at you, turns to his friends when you walk by and says something, and watches you walk away. To get him to like you wear make up if you feel comfortable, flirt with his friends if you're comfortable to make him jealous, and flip your hair/ wear fashionable clothes. Did the best I could if you have any more questions just ask Sarahreid,
thxs & good luck


I just found out two days ago that my husband of 21 years had an affair with a woman who was in his drug rehab class. I know he talked with her on cell phone (I looked up the records) and I found out that they had sex once (in a car) and he wanted to come clean it happened about one month ago. He told me there was no feelings and he was done with the relationship. He also dumped on me that about ten years ago, during the course of one year he called about six escorts at different times and actually had sex with one. I am so heart sick and need to know if I could ever trust him again. What would you do? I am at the cross roads. We have 5 boys. (link)
He is not showing any respect for you so why should you show respect for him. Leave him. And i'm not trying to be rude you should have some respect.

Im 15 and im a virgin, im guessing thats a good thing? I have only had one boyfriend and we broke up we have only kissed and thats all, and sometimes I fantasize about having sex with him when I get urges. Im no longer going out with him but I stil Fantasize. Im wondering if thats normal and if its weird or what? please give me some good advice! (link)
It's normal i'm 21 and i always want to have sex. It's gross but I dream about it. ewww huh


Well, my best friend is a guy. We have been best friends for 3 years. I went to his school, but then I moved the middle of last year. But we still talked everyday. But then like one day he just stopped texting or calling or IMing and what not. He will not respond to my texts or calls, and I have no idea why, because I didn't do anything. I know he has feelings for me, because he talks about me all the time to his friends and says he likes me and he asked me out like 5 months ago but i said no because i was dating someone else even though I loved my best friend. I love him, like not little kid love either, I see myself marrying him and everything. But ya know, you can't be in love with someone that doesn't talk to you. So I kinda have 2 questions.What would I say that might get him to at least respond and tell me he hates me or something? Or, how do I get over it, and him, so I don't like him anymore, because I honestly do not like anyone else but him, and I won't unless I get over it. Sorry if this is long but I really need help. Because I miss him and I really want to talk to him again :/ (link)
I was in your position. I had this friend that i truely loved. But then he became my boyfriend then stopped talking to me and i miss him deeply. So almost the same as yours. The advice I can give you is... You can't get over a guy like that that easily, you shouldn't try cause that's another form of thinking about him. Just try to not think about him. Don't ''really'' forget about him just don't think about him in any form or fashion. If he's any good at all he'll like you. But if he's not then he won't like you in which case ignore him. But there may be some in between for him. He may like you but not want to tell you so. Because he feels it will be occward. (For both of you) You also might want to tell him you like him, because if he likes you it will be easier for him to admit it then.=) I did the best I could,
Sarah


Hey I'm 18 and I met a guy through a site that is meant for Christian's to talk and meet to get to know more Christian's in their area...

Well, I met this guy and he seems to be really nice so far. He wanted to hang out and go to a younth group together or something and I normally would never want to meet people online, ever, but it's SUPPOSED to be safe since it's Christian based site it's not a dating site or anything it's meant more for friends really...

He even said I could bring my Mom or a friend or family member and we'd definitely, obviously, be in a public place if we did...

Now I'm 18 so I wouldn't bring my Mom but I would definitely probably bring a friend or something... But, I have been hurt really really hurt badly in the past by guys and I'm not sure if this guy is for real?

He said he's 26 which would make him like 7 years older than I am.... But like when I looked on his myspace and stuff all of his friends (which weren't many) are all 18-22 at the oldest... And he told me he was out of school but I read a comment on his myspace of someone needing to ask a questions before their test? So, if he's out of school, why is he taking a test and why does the person need to get his notes or ask questions or whatever? He said he isn't working right now because he is leaving for a military medical thing in Janurary but that he'll still be able to talk...

What do you guys think of this situation? I wasn't and I'm not looking for a relationship so it's not so much that but as a friend do you think that's okay? Do you think he's being shady and maybe just hangs out with yonger people? If so id that creepy? Any extra input is fine but please don't be rude I'm asking for advice because I really am not sure, I've never been in this situation before, so there is no need to be mean please. I will rate and give feedback. (link)
Hi. I'm Sarah.
I think that you shouldn't meet him because it's more likely a trap. But if you do which I don't recommend, but he might be fine because it's a christian site, but anyway if you do meet him bring a friend. And make sure to tell him you're not in for a relationship just yet... Please give my feed back if you like my advice,
Sarah


hello there!

i found this site through a webgroup which gave an id and a pass with a fake mail or something i don't know anyway so yeah people from this group use it to ask questions they are too embarrassed to ask... lol this isn't really embarrassing i am just VERY VERY shy. so here goes:

my boyfriend got accepted into med school and i wanted to surprise him with something... we only have a couple of mutual friends (his are scientific mine are artsy) so i am not really looking to arrange for a party or something... i thought something more well... relaxed... such a dinner or whatever... i am a good cook (i had 2 years of side chef college from my 3 year photography university era :p) i just need a theme or idea of what to do.... anyone?? (link)
make a cake with a stethascope on it and a sign that says med school and put a plastic shot on the side of top of the cake. and you could also use the nurses hat as a decoration
