My mom yells a lot, even if didn't do anything wrong. Why does she do that? What can I do to make her be nicer? (link)
|
wow! my mom is exactly the same way! i dont know how severe your mom is, but mine has slight PMS and get stressed very easily. a lot of people yell when they are stressed. i would try to stay calm even when she gets mad. this way she might calm down too, because she doesnt have even more stress and anger piled on top of hers. this might work work if she has PMS too. if its really severe, than maybe your mom should try therpy to get relaxed. hope i helped!!! :)

theres this girl whose gonna be on my bus this year and she wants to beat me up for no reason. shes 2 years older than me and shes really mean. shes the kind of girl who will scream mean things at you in front of everyone! i dont know how to handle that... its so embarrassing, but i dont want to act tough because then she'll really want to beat me up. im so scared help! (link)
|
well, i would try to avoid any kind of contact at all. if you have a cd player, you can just try to be very inconspicuous ( hard to notice) and maybe she wont bother with you. If she still picks on you, then she'll seem kind of pathetic for not having any reason to bother you. Another good idea is to set up some kind of car pool instead of riding the bus at all. hope i helped pleez rate me!

My family adopted an adult cat, one year old, "Henry", to be friends with our lonely other one year old cat, "William". Both the cats are males. We've had Henry for three weeks, and he remains deathly afraid of everything. He braely eats, and hides under the bed. William visits him, and tries to play but Henry will not play, and runs away. We all have to keep incredibly quiet around the house, because loud noises scare the bejezus out of him. I want to make Henry feel more at home. What can I do? (link)
|
well, when you see him, stare him straight in the eye, becuase for cats thats a sign of trust. then walk slowly up to him and calmly rub his fur. the more you do this the more he'll trust you, and wont be scared of you. he may still be scared of a lot of things, but he'll probably become more comfortable around you. Hope I Helped!!! :)

me and my friend fight ALL the time.. i really wish she would shut up! she brags and annoys me a lot! then she thinks we are like best friends! i dont know what to do!! i dont want to tell her i hate her cause i dont know how she will react! but what if she feels the same way as I do! please dont tell me to just "talk it out" i need real advice that will work!!!! thanks (link)
|
well... i would start avioding her untill she gets the picture. i know this is mean but its definetly not talking it out. Find new friends who really care about YOU. especially once she finds some friends of her own, you two wont have to worry about this constant struggle anymore.
|
ok here goes......i think my friends b-day is coming up soon but im not sure. i dont wanna ask her when her b-day is coming up cuz im supposed 2 know!! it will make me feel bad if i have 2 ask her when her b-day is! and i dont know any1 that would know when it is!!!! what should i do???
confused as ever!!!! (link)
|
hmmm... well you could go over to her house and while shes not lookin, try looking for some kind certificate or id that will tell you. Or, just turn up with a gift and if she says her birthday isnt until-fill in the blank- than tell her you know but you thought you might not be able to make it that day. If shes having a bithday party than it doesnt realy matter when her birthday is. Hope i helped!!! :) rate me pleez :)
|
what should i do if everything i do my friend thinks its great and does the same thing and then hers ends up being better EVEN tho she got the stupid idea from ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (who alwayz has the better ideas) (link)
|
well, you could tell her that you dont appreciate her copying you. But it always comes out sounding mean and anyway if she really likes your ideas then...shes probably not gonna stop taking them. Some things you could do are:
1. Dont give her any ideas, wait untill SHE has one and tell her its really good.(Maybe she just doesnt think any of her ideas are any good and this is the encouragement she needs)
2. even though this isnt as good as the first, think up one idea, let her copy it, then think up a better one( that you may have already thought of), and do that.
So, if you let her gradually strt doing the things that she thinks up, eventually she should think that her ideas are good enough to use from now on!!! :) HOPE I HELPED PLEEZ RATE ME!

Every year I vacation in my absolute favorite place in the entire world. I have so many really close friends up there and I always have a wonderful time. I just got back 2 days ago and my parents told me we aren't going up next year. I've felt really sick to my stomach the last few days, back til the night before I left and I've been feeling kind of nauseated. Do you think it's just an awkward time to get sick, or do you think this could just be a serious case of home sickness? (link)
|
well its probably just a sickness but maybe this is a virus you got and your not fighting itvery well now cuz you feel like being sick?? i know that sounds dumb but i would its my best guess. besides, you'll probably feel the most homesickness when the time comes when you should be up there and youre still down here. hope i helped!!! :)

i sweat a lot when ever i am working out. so in team practice it gets a little annoying and embarsing...what do i do? (link)
|
well, just try using deoderant even if you still sweat a little it wont smell. also, take a small towel w/ you to practice and whenever you have a chance, use it to wipe off the sweat. i would think w/ deoderant and a towel you should look and smell fine. hope i helped!!! :)
|

|

(link)

well i know this isnt the same, but in first grade i went fome a wealthy private school in pa to a public elementry school in delaware. i knew ABSOLUTELY NO ONE because my old friends stayed in private school.the very first girl i met in public school was very outgoing and i immediatly liked her( me being very shy) and she ended up being my best friend. i learned a lot from this, mostly that if you step up and introduce yourself to people, they like you a lot. if you hold back, you miss out on a lot of would-be friends. hope i helped!!! :)

I'm a great advice columnist but i guess every advice person needs some advice as well.
Ok so about a month ago my sister and my brother in law came to visit us and i was sleeping (it was night time) and I remember waking up for my brother inlaw touching my leg. I didnt think much of it but after that I kept on thinking about it. Well i was at their house and last night he said he was sorry, and i didnt know what he was talking about and i was like for what and hes like I touched you in a place that you shouldnt have been touched by me (higher than my legs) I dont know what to do! because I mean I dont think he was doing it for more than a sec cuz i think i woke up right away but I dont want to tell my mom and dad because my dad would kill him and they would say something to my sister and then my sister and him would probably get a devorice and my sisters really happy. I mean that was the first time but I still cry about it like i feel so violated and i dont know what to do. I cant sleep cuz i think about it. All I do is cry about it. Please help me please!
I promise i'll rate a 5 no matter what! Atleast your trying to help me. (link)
|
well, i think you have been violated and even though youve thought about others first, its time to think about yourself. should either tell your sister or both your parents and sister. if youre afraid they will act too severely, tell them this before they act. your brother in law had no right to do this w/out aking you(ESPECIALLY since he's married) and after that, try getting a therapists help to get you through this. this will make you feel better about yourself. hope i helped!!! :)

Okay Yesterday I went off on my friends because I thought they were going to say "you are copying us" because they do this and i wanted to so i said i have wanted to do this since i was in 4th grade and i am not copying you. so now they are mad at me and i really wish that they werent. they think i copy them and that I do not know how to deal with people and that i am stupid well at least right now that they are mad at me....I tried to apologize to them through e-mail but I think they are still mad at me...I want to apologize again in person but I know they will not talk to me...What Should I do? (link)
|
well, i believe in the saying- imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. you wouldnt copy them if you didnt like whatever they had,and they know you truly like it and arent just pretending.if you arent too mad at them, then tell them that you just copy because you like their style. if they're still mad, maybe you shouldn't be so nice.
p.s. copying isnt a bad thing!

this teacher at my school picks on me and im sick of it. he always asks me questions and laughs wen i get them wrong wot can i do (link)
|
that must feel miserable, and especially if its bringing your grade down, you should do something soon.go to a counselor , or if you are 2 embarrassed(like i wud b), try 2 get transferred to a different class.hope i helped!!
|
There is this guy I really like, I have liked him for a really long time. There is just one problem, he is sort off out of my league. Is there anything I can do to make him like me more while still being myself? I rate! (link)
|
well if he doesnt like the kind of person you are, then dont bother cuz hez not ur type. if you think he wud go for you if you were yourself, then go for it! youve got nothin to lose.

my thighs are fat and i want to slim them down... how do i do it? What kinda excersices do i need to do? (link)
|
my dad tells me this ALL THE TIME, and i think its pretty good advice. and its as simple as abc, its easier said than done. EAT RIGHT AND EXERCISE. if you eat right and exercise, you should be healthily slim. i guess there are a lot of ways 2 "eat right", but a good amount of vitamins, fiber and calcium, and not as much carbs should do the trick.
|

the perfect solution is to get a job. it will take your mind off your troubles and after youve forgotten your troubles you get paid! i would think the best job would b a job that requiers interaction w/ other people. this way you can think more bout them and ur paycheck then nething else.

Hi, it's my 15th birthday coming up soon, and I want to do something really good, like have a big party or something. The problem is, I want to invite all my friends (which span over a WIDE area - i have friends from loads of schools), but they don't all know each other, and some don't get along that well. Also, my best friend is a year younger and at a different school, but absolutely NONE of my other friends know her. I really want to invite all of them but I don't think they'll all enjoy it - especially my best friend as the only person she'll know is me. What shall I do? (link)
|
if u invite all of them then no matter how hard you try they might start disagreeing. id say seperate your friends into 2 groups that will get along, and have 2 smaller parties. or 1 big 1 and 1 small 1. this way you can have a happy party w/ every1 - and TWICE THE FUN!
|
my 2 friends like this guy that i just started to like. should i tell them that i like him too? (link)
|
if he likes 1 of ur 2 friends(or both, maybe) then dont tangle up your love life and freindships fighting over this guy. tell him how you feel, and if he feels the same way, keep it goin. if he doesnt, there are MANY more guyz who will rock ur sox.

|
