i recently meet this guy. hes great and i really like him but i cant stop thinking about my ex-boyfriend...i really wanna get back 2gether with him and at the same time i dont cuz he wuld always blow me off and never see me and the guy i met he likes me alot and i like him 2 and he wuld do anything for me.but everytime im with him i end upp think about muh ex...what should i doo? (link)
moving on can be a tough part of life, but it's important. just try to let loose and have fun with this new guy. your'e lucky to have someone new who cares for you too.


last year. i had like a big group of friends. and now this year. it feels likes they dont think about me as much. like im just sorta there then like theyre best friend or just friend. my best guys friends are all of a sudden BEST friends with my BEST girlfriends and its like okayy what about me. every1 has a bst friend now and its like i dont. i dont want to be the center of theyre world but i mean i dont want to be invisable either (link)
ive had some similar problems before. i find that sometimes I have to be the one to take the first step and call my friends or make the plans or invite them over or whatever. if they still dont pay attention to you then they aren't worth your time anyways. it may be scary at first, but it's really fun to make new friends too! :)


alright well heres my deal, i'm 14/f and my best friend well i LOVE her brother i went out with him secretley but then she found outt and she was pissed..so then we had to break up bcus his parents were always yellin @ him and she wuld always cry about it i dnt see wat the big deal was but anyways we got back together and we got sexually active, agen she found outt and we had to break it off except this time it was BIGG. I still love him and he still lvoes me we arent reallyy dating but together my mom says i can do better but i def. think hes it. wat shuld i do? end the relationship or just go for it and forget about his sister. (link)
wow, that's a complicated situation. im the kinda girl that thinks it's wrong to "dump" your best friends over some guy. your still young and will have plenty of more chances for other guys so dont tie yourself down so much :)


On Sunday I'm going to the beach wwith my family and another family who has a 14 year old son. He's a year older than me and he's cute!!! I have these one pieces that i look good in, but i also have some bikinis. The problem with my bikinis is my nipples show through the fabric!!! Yuck!! Should i wear the bikini anyway or go with a one piece? (link)
the one piece. if you want this boy to like you, you want him to like you for your personality not your body :)


I play field hockey and its preseason and i hurt my musucle under my ribs. first it was only the one but now it is both. what should i do? is it from running 1-4 miles a day? shouldi ask to take the day off of running or what? HELP PLEASEE (link)
first ask a doctor. you made need to quit for a certain amount of time so that you can properly heal. dont be afraid to ask for help or find to out what's wrong, then follow the doctor's instructions. or maybe if you tell your coach the about situation he/she will give you a break.


My life really sucks. The guy i like has this really popular and pretty girlfriend. All the people at school make fun of me. I do not have alot of friends. My family doesn't seem like they care for me too much. I even sometimes think of suicide.

At school all of the people make fun of me. I am no dork but people make fun of me the way i dress and just plain make fun of me. On my school lacrosse team people always make fun of me. Not to brag but i am probably the best person on the team and yet there are still people making fun of me of the things i do. On my soccer team some of the girls make fun of me too. I do not have alot of friends either. My dad always bothers me to have someone come over and he asks me the number of people i called and its only about 3 because i really don't have alot of friends to call. My family is always yelling at me to. I try to be nice but then my sister makes some smart remark and then my parents expect me to be nice to her. And they think she is like the perfect angel child that does everything right. My sister even sometimes makes fun of me by saying i have no friends. Suicide is also something i think about and life is something i want to take away because it really sucks. Please add some advice to this column. It would really help. Even if it is just about one thing. Please help. (link)
have you ever heard of the word "hater" that's what these people are. they're jealous cause your better at these sports than they are! trust me the best way to get rid of their negative energy is to IGNORE THEM! i know it sounds juvenile but i've learned it truly does work! maybe you should try going to other places to make new friends. if there isn't too many people at school try going to church or maybe some nice party...just be careful not to get mixed into the wrong crowd, the whole point of this is to find positive, encouraging people who love you for who you are! :)


ok so its only 6 days into school and i have so much hmwk! its horrible im already stressing out will it be like this all year? i want to do a sport also but i dont want to risk failing to play
female/freshman (link)
let me tell you i had SO much homework last year (my freshman year) but stick with it those good grades will look good on college apps. towards the end of the year things will probably slow down. :) some people can manage their time well and can pull off a sport, if so go for it. but if you find it's too much i would suggest to stick to the homework. it's good that you care about not failing, keep up that good attitude (it might become tough towards the end of the year) good luck!


Hey i was wondering if any of you know a all around really good shampoo and conditioner.. i use brilliant brunette right now but i was wondering if theres like a better one maybe pantene the brunette expressions or garnier fructice or what... my hair is wavy i can curl or straighten it so yeah thanks! im looking for one to make it shiny and healthy and makes it just look good! 15 f (link)
i love pantene pro-v the conditioner feels like it gives a lot of moisture (i dont know if i spelled it right) to your hair


I want to wait until I am married to have sex. My friend and I were talking and this is what she said to me, "My mom told me she didn't want me to wait until marriage to have sex, because she wanted me to know what to do." I was thinking about it and I don't know anymore. I mean I don't want to go and read things on what to do/watch porn and stuff. I am not that kind of girl. Plus, all my friends say they just want to wait until after they turn 16. I mean its not part of my religion. Its part of what I think is right. I mean I at least want to wait until marriage is on option... I don't know.

Should I wait? (link)
It can be really hard sometimes but it is important to stick to what you think is right. I personally want to wait till i get married too. Your friends should respect your decision and support it. If they are true friends they will stand behind you and your decisions.


i have a dell windows and i have an ipod and today i got the cord for it but i have NO IDEA how to set it up or getr songs into the ipod...can anyone please help? thanks:)
(link)
well to begin with i believe you have to download some software for the iTunes library. and once you get the library they have a help center where you can ask a question or look one up. i have a mini iPod too and a dell computer but my dad did most of this stuff for me. if you need to ask me more about it feel free cause i currently have 380 songs on mine, so im doing something right. hope you can figure it out. once you do it's not complicated at all. :)


Okay I have this friend, and her name is Christa, and shes the greatest girl ever. I dont wanna seem weird, But I wanna let her know. How would I do that.

Plus shes hot. (link)
tell her she's hot all the time and hang out with her at school. and always tell her how great she is. if she's truly great she deserves to know...dont you think? oh, and make sure you dont get a date for homecoming and ditch her or anything like that!


oh of my best guy friends likes me, and he has for a while. at first i didnt like him but now im starting to. but im afraid if we go out, then break up,that i'll lose one of my best friends. but im also afraid if i dont tell him i'll regret it. so my question is shold i tell him i like him or not?


plus i dont know if i really like him, or if im just really flattered that he likes me (link)
Just give it time, but tell him whats going on. You are probably just flattered, since you didn't like him at first, but if you wait, you might find out you really like him like that. If you do, then you should go out for him. **Dont wait too long to decide, cuz you cannot expect him to wait forever.


This is going to be the strangest question ever. My grandmother and my mother both carried a Bible as part of their bouquet for their weddings. I want to do the same. There are 4 possible Bibles that would fit the bill.
#1-Grandmother's Bible-She isn't around, and she wouldn't let my mom carry it. It's a faded ivory.

#2-Mom's Bible-She carried it, but she is now divorced. So maybe superstitiously, I don't really want to carry it. I will already be wearing her veil. It is white.

#3-The Bible I was given when I was Baptized. It's blue, and a little stained due to a fire. I don't think anyone will see the stained.

#4-The Bible I was given at or near birth with my name written on it. It is a very light pink.

All of these Bibles mean something to me. They aren't huge, so weight shouldn't be an issue. One day I want the blue one, and one day I want grandmother's Bible. What's your opinion?
(link)
I would go with number 3. Baptism is a ceremony that brings you closer to God, and that was the bible that was given to you when you were being brought closer to God. It seems just perfect for you to carry.


i have a problem thats been getting to me for the past couple months. i cant be alone. like if im home by myself and not talking to any1, i have problems like i get worked up and upset and im not exactly sure what to do about it. i have asthma and do get panic attacks so thats basically why its a problem. my bf has been trying to help me, and when he talks to me i feel 1000x better, but he cant talk to me all the time and i totally understand that. any advice id greatly appreciate and i'll definately rate you.

thanks (link)
You should talk to a doctor because this sounds serious. They have medication for this type of stuff. They also have methods you could use to help yourself in these situations.


i think i just made one of the biggest mistakes of my life. me and my best guy friend have always had a friends-with-benifits relationship. he was fingering me today and ended up sticking his penis in me. we were going for a little, but we had to stop because he had to leave. he didn't get to cum and we did full out have sex. but knowing that his penis was in me... is that enough to count for losing my virginity? (link)
YES you are no longer a virgin.


ok i have this friend. we used to be the CLOSEST BEST FRIENDS EVER! everyone in our school new that we were best friends. we were always together and we hardly ever got in fights. we were in every class together (except 2)
then in 8th grade, we kind of slipped away because we werent in ANY classes together...
so near the end of 8th grade, she started calling me a slut and not calling me or hanging out with me and she just ignored me...
we havent seen each other all summer.

and her mom also hates me...i have no idea why...but her mom doesnt like my friend hanging out w/me...i have no clue why! kuz im nice to her mom, and polite and everything...i just dont get it!!!!

i tried pot once...
she made a bet w/her friend...and she won the bet
so i got mad kuz she mad a bet...she got mad kuz i did pot (thats what the bet was about)
she sent me THE MEANEST E-MAIL EVER! i cried for like 2 hours that night! just because i love her and i really wanted to be friends with her.
we talk and i guess you could call us friends again but i KNO she still thinks im a slut and a pothead
ok..i tried pot ONCE and i decided im not gonna do it again.
and she thinks im a slut kuz i make out w/guys that arnt my b/fs...which i've only done like 3 times...but it wasnt like...IM GONNA MAKE OUT W/A TOTAL STRANGER! and then the next day IM GONNA MAKE OUT W/HIM!
it wasnt like that...i make out w/guys if i LIKE them...and obviously my b/fs
so i was jw what to do about her...or how i could "change" for her...
she said she liked me better in 7th grade and i changed A LOT...i didnt even realize i changed...so i just dont know what to do kuz shes my best friend and she helps me out so much! i just dont know what i would do without her
(link)
okay this is important. YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE FOR YOUR FRIENDS. THEY SHOULD LIKE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE, REGARDLESS. Everybody loses friends in their lifetime. Just be open to making new friends. If you really don't trust her, then maybe you shouldn't be talking to her.


i hate myself i really do. when i look at myself i just want to end my life. i feel so ugly. and i have no friends. i never had a bf and no one ever liked me before. But that is not why i am crying. i stop caring about my uglyness. i was in my bestfriends house and she was talking to her mother about me. I guess they thought i wouldnt hear it. Her mother goes i know u feel sorry for her and all but now that you made new friends its time to let this one go. my friend goes yeah eww gosh i hate her. She smells bad and wow shes very ugly. my new friends dont like her and i just dont know how to leave her with out sounding me! wow i started to cry. that hurt so bad. the only perosn i loved and cared about hates me and never liked. she just used me!!

what do i do? how can i change for her? i need to be her friend (link)
You shouldn't have to change for your "friends". Maybe you should talk to her and let her know you heard it and that it hurt your feelings. If she shows no sympathy, you might as well get rid of her now.


ok well there is this guy at my school he i really like him he isnt in any of my classes but gym and im too shy to talk to him lol but he knows i like him but ive never talked to him i really wont to meet him thought like talk to him... so maybe then he would go out with me but im too scared to talk to him (link)
Just talk to him... whats he gonna do, bite you?Try being friends first instead of jumping into a relationship, that way you can get to know him.
