Hello everyone! My name is Lisa, I'm 15. I'm a freshman and I go to public school. I love to sing, read, watch tv, and I'm a big fan of Harry Potter. Most of my freinds come to me for advice because they know that they can depend on me and just because I am young does not mean I cant answer questions from older people who seek advice so please ask away!

i dont know where to begin with makeup, can anyone start me on the basics? (link)
|
Dear Reader,
You could always start with eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara. Concealer is always good if you have alot of pimples. Also bronzer if your skin is pale.
Sincerely,
Lisa

okay so this guy i like is going to move a the week i come back from camp and i want him to rember me and stuff!! like he has a girlfriend so im not really scared to makeout with hi sense i dont no her so anything wat could i do? (link)
|
Dear Reader,
I would NOT make out with him only because he's not available. Its going to hurt him knowing that he cheated on his girlfriend, and I know this might not be what you want to hear but most chances are he's going to choose his girlfriend over you.
Sincerely,
Lisa

Okay, since my parents money is going towards my lukeima treatment..a friend gave me a prom dress. The problem witht he dress is that it doesn't fit quite right. Very close though. When I zip it up, I can't get it to go all the way because I'm just a bit overweight for the dress. Mom said that five or ten pounds should do the trick. Prom is the 28th of this month. Can I lose that much between now and then. I have about an inch to zip up in the back. If I lose some of the weight in my stomach, will that help it zip up? I want to kind of crash diet, but I can't really do that because I have to consider the fact the I have lukeima now I and I can't quite do that.. (link)
|
Dear Reader,
NO CRASH DIETS! Thats what I tell everyone, you'll loose so much strength, you'll be tired all the time and you just cant do that. If you really want to go on a diet, try eatting just enough to make you full but not over do it. Or try going on a water diet. What a water diet is, is that you dont drink any other liquid other then water. You could also try eatting smaller portions only eatting more during the day, so instead of having one large breakfast you could try, a bowl of cereal and a snack bar for between that peroid and lunch, or instead of having a large dinner, have a small portion at four and have another small portion at seven or something. Dont go on a crash diet, instead you'll crash and its just not good. DONT DO IT. You dont seem fat, and you seem like you can fit fine into the dress. Perhaps suck in your stomach and have someone else zip it up while you do so. I hope this helped and I hope everything goes well with your treatments, best of luck to you and I hope you have the best night of your life at prom. I bet you'll be the prettiest one there. So live it up! And dont worry:) Let me know how things turn out. (sky_dreamer311@yahoo.com) if you need someone to talk to. Good luck!

im just rele... not in a good mood. im pretty upset and i need some1 to talk to. i just feel like shit and like i shouldnt be. my whole problem is i wear my heart on my sleeve and ive already tried to cut it off but that didnt work. i just fall for people way to easy and then they never like me for anything than just a friend. tonight i went to a play to watch the girl i liek perform cuz lastngiht she invited me and i decided i would come again. well lastnight i couldnt ifnd her and tonight i told her after the play to come find me and i would be sitting where i was before. well i waited for 5 minuites then found one of my other frineds and talked to her until she helped me find the other girl. she was talking to and upperclassmen (btw, im a freshman and the girl i liek is a freshman) and it really hurt me inside to see her with him cuse it is obvious tht she probubly likes him and he probubly likes her only for her body. im tryin to hold back tears while writing this cuz my mom is downstairs and if i cry she knows something is wrong. this spring break has completely sucked for me. ive already thought of giving up on everything. i just feel so unloved and its got me depressed and its slowly killing me.

Dear Reader,
I know how it is, trust me, I do too but I try not to.
When you meet a girl, dont automatically say, "oh i like her," or dont like her because she's cute or something. Go deeper then that. Get to know her, talk to her be her FRIEND first. Just be a friend first before you do anything else. If you then like her for who she is after you've gotten to know her, then starting to like her is alright then because you know that underneath the prettyness she has personality. Don't take girls liking other guys too seriously, I know it hurts, trust me, Iknow, but try not to. If you do everytime it'll get you more and more depressed. I'm a freshman if it helps and I know how it is. You seem like a great guy and if you wait until maybe your sophmore year you'll find that girls change over the summer and its like they're new again. Give it time. I think with all the heartache that you're going through you just need a break. You seem really nice and really caring if you went to her preformance. The guy friend I'm intrested in didnt even do that for me, so you seem really cool.
Give it time, give yourself room, and you'll find someone. good luck, let me know how things go and i hope i helped.

SO this dude i like says he likes me i say i like him back he asks me do i want to go with him i say yea i ask him do he want to go with me he says i dont know you seem like you are crazy ive been knowin this dude for like 3 months!!!! i really cant understand him ??? i need help
Last friday he literally stalked me to find out if i liked him or not and when ever i try to talk to him about US he says somthing like i dont know you i need to get to know you first i really dont know what else to do i really like him alot!!!!! (link)
|
Dear Reader,
You should really get to know him, just because you've met him three months ago doesnt mean you know him, like, know know him. Do you know his birthday? Favorite color? Favorite band? I'm going through the same thing right now, and my guy took me to a dance. All you can do is talk to him more, be yourself and if he says he wants to get to know you, it means that he likes you and he wants to know who you really are inside. Why not just call him and have a talk with him, a talk aobut anything. Just to know him more then you do now. I hope this helped. Good luck and let me know how things go.

im going out with this guy for like 3 weeks now.i liked him like in the begining of the school year. sow now that were going out he tell me he loves me and stuff how can do i no if 2 believe him?? (link)
|
Dear Reader,
If he says he loves you and you dont really believe him, then dont say "i love you" back because then you would be lying to him. Wait it out for a week or so and if he keeps saying I love you, maybe he means it. But really, the best thing to do is tell him that its too fast and to take it a bit slower if thats what you think. Hope this helped. Good luck and let me know how things go.

Dear Reader,
The Skyscraper by.. ohgosh, her name slips my head. I think its like.. stephanie something. Search it up on google.
You could always try Borders in the mature section of it.
I hope this helped.

my bff just recenly introduced me to her crush and ugh..i think i'm starting to crush on him too. hes like everything i've been looking for and i have no clue what to do. but right now i'm just keeping my emotions to myself and letting her have her crush with him. but i did tell her to ask him who he liked or flirt more or something to hint to him more to get something going between them. but any suggestions on what to do about the situation. should i tell her? should i just wait it all out and see what happens between them? and oh yeah tonight her and i hung out with him and a few other guys andi talked to him more than she did. you can't even tell she likes him except a few times she'll do somethings and he'll do little things too but i don't think theres anything. just please give me some suggestions on what to do because i have no clue and i don't wann lose a bff. (link)

Dear BFF,
A boy is probably the stupidest reasons to loose a best friend over. If she's your best friend, talk to her, tell her how it is, tell her how you feel. The longer you wait, the more upset she might be that you didnt tell her earlier and she'll be even more upset probably that you didnt think that your friendship could surive a boy. ITS JUST A BOY, there's more to come. Dont let him ruin a friendship. If you're bff is over him, then ask for her okay to make a move on him if thats what you want. but be sure to ask her again and again and again because sometimes, being a best friend myself, I hide things sometime because being a best friend means that you want your best friend to be happy. No matter how much it hurts the other bf. I hope this helped and good luck. let me know how things turn out.
Sincerly,

Everyone in my family tells me that I have a great memory. On April 3, 2006 (the 2nd Night of Passover) I was having dinner with my mom, my sister, brother-in-law and 2 nephews I was telling them a story about how in 1998 when my younger nephew was seven I took him to see Prince of Egypt and once scene scared him and what happened that night when they were putting him to bed. Any way they denied it happened. And tonight my Mom said just because they dont remember doesnt mean I am wrong or they are wrong. But what I dont understand is why would they ALWAYS tell me I have a great memory and then do the above. (link)
|
Dear Reader,
Its simple, its because THEY dont remember it. Dont be upset because they dont remember it, just be happy that you do and that you have one more memory then they do.

I am 15, and I'll be 16 in a couple of months. I have a boyfriend who is 18. All of my life, I have been around older people. I just don't really relate to many people that's the same age with me, and all of my male friends are older than 17.
Well, my parents don't really want me and my boyfriend to go anywhere together because they think he's too old for me. They're old-fashioned, and age is a big thing to them. My boyfriend is really respectful and everything. You would think that being their daughter, (and the only child in the house) my parents would know me, but they really don't. They don't know me as a person. It makes me mad that they're trying to say what's best for me when they don't even know me. It would break my heart to have our relationship be ruined because my parents simply don't know me. Is there anything I can say to them? I'm really confused on this one.
Thanks. (link)

Dear Reader,
Welcome to my world, at least your allowed to date, I'mnot allowed until Im done college. And I'm 15.
Anyways, how about you invite your boyfriend over for a dinner so that your parents get to meet him and talk to him and see how he's like? Usually that would gain trust from the rents to meet the boyfriend if they havent already.
Tell them that you're getting older now and that with their strict rules and fair punishments, that they raised a headstrong daughter that cant grow up because her parents are holding her back.
I hope this helped, good luck, and let me know how things turn out!

My boyfriend kissed another girl. What should I do?
It wasn't a french kiss and it was on the lips.
The thing is, my friend saw this. He was at karate with one of his classmates.
And I think my friend isn't lying because she told me the ADDRESS of the building and the time he was there. I know the karate place and I know what time he goes. And my friend doesn't go to his school so it's not like they talk about what time he goes there and where. We all hung out like 2 times [movies] so no conversation, basically.
My boyfriend didn't tell me anything though..
So i'm not sure how to go about this..
My friend isn't known to be a liar. But I don't know about my boyfriend. :/
(link)
|
Dear Reader,
I would definitly trust the friend but just to make sure confront HIM about it. But dont make it so its like you were spying on him or anything. Bring it up in a way thats like... subtile. If you even need to, I know this sounds wrong, but if you really need to, take him on a guilt trip. Try to get him to tell you before you mention it.
Give it a day or two, and if he doesnt say anything, the guilt inside will eat him alive.
Well, how well do you know your boyfriend? How long have you been with him? I think you should definitly talk to him.

what are some tips for tanning?
tanning outside, not fake-baking. (link)
|
Dear Tanner,
You could always try a tanning loation or something since the sun isnt out as much... where I live it isnt anyways, ahahaha. But if you want a tan, use suntan lotion before you burn yourself to a crisp. You might want to be in a bathing suit when you tan too, how can you tan if you're fully clothed? It usually takes a while to tan, so while you're soaking in the sun, (with suntan lotion on) read a book, or listen to music. I hoped this helped, good luck and let me know how things go.

I'd really like to raise money for a foundation such as the Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk. Is there any other similar websites, like http://www.the3day.org, where I can create my little page to help raise money? Thanks! (link)
|
Dear Reader,
Usually websites arent that good because not many people feel safe giving money to a stranger. If you're still in school, try getting your student council to do a fundraiser, like, a walk-a-thon only in your own track field and get small local businesses to fund you. I hope this helped, good luck and let me know how things go.

hey im a 13/f and hang out in this kinda big kinda small group of friends and we are all preps. Dont get me wrong they are all Great !!!!! accept for one whos name is anna. she thinks she is all that and at the beging of the year she was and she had power over everyone!!! But now she has made it so like no one trusts her and so she is no longer on top. i am with a girl named emma and we like rule the school i mean if we got anna up agin she would bitch us out so no use in doing this. but my question is should i remain friends with her or not she's a totle skank but at the same time she can be so cool and helpful what should i do ?? (link)
|
Dear Prep,
It sounds like something I would see in a movie. Well, do you like this girl Anna enough to see through the skankyness and stuff? Can you see through the untrustworthy person she's become? If not, I dont suggest you stay friends with her because if you do it could ruin your reputation. But watch it, if you dont include Anna, she could do something totally b****y and backstabbing and you wouldnt know what would hit you. I dont know what she's capible of but if she is that evil or cool or whatever, I say, watch your back. Good luck and I hope everything works out okay, let me know how thigns go.

I guess I probably just need someone to tell me I'm being an idiot for this, but I'm really pissed off right now.
19/F.
I've been living with my boyfriend for about 4 months. We're both university students. We've become really close over the time we've been dating, so it's not just a casual relationship.
Today is our six month anniversary. I wanted to do something really nice for him, because he's been really good to me. I told him about my plans, and he okayed them. I wanted to have a nice romantic evening and cook dinner for him.
He was at military training this weekend (for the reserves) and he got back about an hour ago.
He brought his brother with him. He knows I don't really like his brother at the best of times. He doesn't know when to back off and leave the two of us alone. He's loud and irritating, and he's obsessed with a certain children's card game (even though he's 20 years old).
This brother of his is staying all night. Instead of the nice dinner I had planned, we're either ordering pizza or having tacos, then they're playing video games.
I'm really hurt, because this anniversary really means a lot to me. He doesn't seem to see what the problem is (because I have a math test to study for).
Am I silly for being hurt? If I am, feel free to tell me. I really suspect that I am, and it would help if someone gave me a figurative slap across the face. If I'm not, I'll bring it up with him later tonight.
Thank you! (link)

Dear Reader,
Oh yeah, I'd be upset to, acutally, I proably would have started to freak out then and there on the spot. Talk to him about it all and try to plan another day where it's just the two of you. Good luck!

My little sister keeps on bugging me about some ideas to paint her room. her room is going to be tropical themed, please give me an idea/ideas so she will quit bugging me! thanks (link)

Dear Reader,
If it's going to be tropical, might as well draw a mural on her wall of like palm trees and a beach chair and a beach. And get her new sheets around a ocean blue shade.

~13/f~ im the kind of gothic rough girl and hes the kind of preppy nice guy.Im not sure how I like my friend bff or bf. Weve been really close friends for a long time then it started going to bffs. because I tell him more than my other bffs and he tells me a lot and were always there for each other. But then we flirt so much. people think or say were dating or should but were not. He knows I liked him I know he liked me but I have no idea now. I went to a paintball party. We both go paint balling a lot then at the party my team was my 5 bffs 3 of their bfs and him. we flirt so much that’s what im so confused about. He was showing off and when we separated he was looking for me and worried? hes just really to nice. Is that what it should be like. But now hes been wearin a lot of black and deppressed. Does that mean something. But then we do joke or do shoot each other on purpose. And my other bff and her bf broke up that night so I went with her. So he knew so he went to get him(the guy she broke up with). Then we went around me my bff(my ?bff or bf? As in him) and my other bff (she just broke up). he was talking to her about something ‘top secret’. later on she started truth or dare. I kept doing truths I was just to nervous. I knew it was a setup. He asked truth to me if id ever take a dare. Then my bff asked truth to me if I liked him then truth to him if he liked me we both said no. I regret it. Everyone already knew anyway but im just not sure if I like him bf or bff? And ive never kissed or been kissed. That’s what it was supposed to be…us kissing. I thought wed start taking it longer than just a ‘dare’ kiss like making out or something. I like him as a bf then bff then bf then bff I just am not sure whats wrong. Hes all I think and write about.
i really need help soon. we tell each other a lot of stuff and we both knew or thought before the party that we liked each other.
Do I like him as a boyfriend(bf) or best friend(bff). How do you think he likes me? What should we do? How do you kiss? How could i tell my mom?
How can I change what happened? What else should I do? i really lied i love him at times but then at times its just friends but mainly i love him but we both deny it when theres alot of people. is that love were too flirty. (link)
|
Dear Reader,
You can't change what's happened, you can only change the future.I think that you need to talk to him, and stop beating around the bushes. If he's starting to wear black, and starting to be depressed, he's probably trying to make himself seem more like gothic, so you'll notice it. You need to tell him the truth, I think he likes you but b/c you told your friend that you didnt like him, he didnt want to be the dork and be like, "yes i like her" cuz, that's just stupid. Kissingg... well, tilt your head to a side, close your eyes, and thats all i can say about that. And to tell your mom, just tell her. Be direct. there's nothing else that you can do. Most importantly, TALK TO HIM as soon as possible. Good luck with everything and let me know how things turn out. hope that helped!

ok..well..i've looked everywhere for sites like this but i can't find any. like where there are clothes that are SUPER cheap. like clearance or a going-out-of-business sale. or like any REALLY good deals. i've seen some before, but does anybody know of any? (link)
|
Dear Reader,
Try Ross or something, usually they have really nice clothing that they buy from department stores when its out of season. Or try Walmart/Kmart. They're cute and cheap, OH! and dont forget Target!
Hope this helped, good luck and let me know how things turn out.

My little sister is only fifteen and three quarters years old, yet she is maturing quite quickly. She began dating a young man who is a little rapscallian, if you ask me. I don't trust that boy. Yesterday, I was in her room looking for some lotion I could borrow. I opened her nightstand drawer, and lo and behold, I find condoms! And not just one or two, oh no. There were many, and they were all, well how do I put it... rather promiscuous. There were some which said that they gave a "tingly" feeling, due to their mintyness. Another was said to be flavored, and there were even some which were "ribbed for your pleasure." I am twenty five years old--ten years her senior--yet I have gone no further than tongue kissing, and I was a year older than her at the time! I believe that my sister is sinning terribly. What to do, what to do? (link)
|
Dear Older Sister,
I think that you need to sit down with your sister and have a talk with her. You need to talk to her about the dangers of sex and protection all that good stuff. But you should be somewhat happy if she's using protection, but still, its not good that she has condomns. Talk to her, and sit her down, but be sure to bring it up in a way so it's not like "Why were you looking through my stuff!" Because being 15 is a very uhm, in lack of a better word, touchy age. I hope this helped, good luck and let me know how things turn out.

I am in a odd relationship. the two of us (im m/16) and she (f/17) mutually like eachother. she keeps telling me she wants to cuddle. usually i am busy or out at night, and she calls and says how she just wants to cuddle. I have never had sex with her and not 100% sure on what she is asking. some advice on what to respond to her with, and what to actually do would be great. much obliged (link)
|
Dear Not-sure-wether-to-cuddle-or-not,
I'm a girl to start off, and usually when a girl wants to "cuddle" she just wants to talk and be around you. By her definition of "cuddle" its just holding hands, sitting closly while watching a movie, you know, cuddling, in all senses of the word. I doubt she wants sex, cuz usually girls arent like that. If you dont feel comftorable and you still think she might be referring to sex, call her and ask her what she means by "cuddling" but be sure to ask in a subtile way or she might think that you're a dirty thinker. I hope this helped, good luck and keep me updated!
Sincerly,
Lisa
