I think it's fine. I'm fourteen and I like a guy who's sixteen. You've got nothing to worry about. If you really like him and he likes you, there's never really an excuse for age difference (I don't mean to offend anyone, but 20 or 30 years is a lot). But no, you're fine. It's a great feeling when you like someone and you're in love. You shouldn't be deprived of that. Go for it!

First of all, how often do you think about him? Are you always thinking about him? Is it like he's driving you crazy? But it's kind of like you don't mind it? If that's true, then you've got to tell him. When you go to talk to him, take deep breaths. Talk about one thing at a time, let the conversation simmer, and when it comes to a boil, kind of subtley squeeze it into the conversation. Give him some signs that you like him, body language is a good type of hint to give him.
If he's bad at showing his feelings, he's probably really shy. That could be a good thing though! It could mean that he's really into you, he's just too nervous about getting rejected. Don't keep it a secret, don't forget about him and move on. If you really like him, take a chance, a risk, go for it! Chances like this don't come around so often for a lot of people. Take it while you've got it.

Oh, I've been in situations like this before. Okay, definitely get his phone number, e-mail, any way you can contact him. If the highschool he's going to isn't too far away, maybe see about seeing him after school, hang out with him. If he's farther away (like "farther" as in "I'm never able to see him"), talk to him on the phone or e-mail him. Staying in touch is probably the most important thing you can do. Just keep in touch and you'll be fine.

Um, I don't think you're fat. Not at all. But 600 calories?! Isn't a regular intake like 2,000 calories a day? ...Anyway, if you're worried about gaining weight if you increase your calorie intake, exercise. See, you can eat more if you exercise, because it gives you energy to do things. What you don't want to do is gorge yourself with food and then sit on the couch and watch television for five hours. That's not good. But no, you're not fat. I just don't want you starving yourself. I don't know how you plan your intake, but if the average intake is 2,000 calories, what you're eating is about 1/4 of what everyone else eats. So, if you're worried about gaining weight with more food, just exercise a little daily. That's all!

This is always hard. Some people prefer Nair hair removal, but I believe waxing is the best thing to do. Yes, I won't lie to you, it hurts! But it won't grow darker and thicker. See, waxing pulls the hair out by the root, so there isn't a stub left to grow darker and thicker. It may leave your lip a little pink for a while if you're doing it for the first couple of times, but it's well worth it. It should grow back in a couple of weeks, but when it does, just do it. It hurts more the longer you let it go, so don't let it go too too long! And the longer you do it, the less it hurts.

Hey, it's me again. I'm kind of in a situation like this, except, I'm in highschool. Okay, first things first.
This gut you do like, what is it that you like about him? His looks? His personality? Both? If you haven't been able to talk to him much, that's a definite thing to do. Now this other guy, his personality is okay, right?
Wow this is hard. A relationship is the best and will succeed if you start out as friends. If you're attracted to the new guy you're just because of his looks...get to know him better. I believe that a person you truly like will keep you thinking about them. Believe me. I like someone so much, I think he's driving me crazy! Especially since I see him maybe twice a month. If you can't stop thinking about the new guy, here's what you do...
If you can't stop thinking about him, it's probably best you become friends with him, and maybe date him, if you're serious. Then in this situation, maybe the guy who likes you could be a great friend. Although you may not be attracted to him, try telling him that you'd like to get to know him better--as friends! Maybe he could surprise you! He's probably shy. It's always hard to make the first move.
If for any reason it doesn't work out with the new guy, then this guy you work with will be there to support and comfort you. And so will I, I'll be here too. Who knows? Maybe your admirer might catch your eye! Try to be friends with the guy, remember: you can never have enough friends! But go with your heart. If there's someone you can't get out of your head, someone who drives you crazy, they're the one. Just know that I'm here and I'll always be here to help. Good luck! You'll be fine!

Oh, this is so cute! Okay, I can see how you don't want to make the first move. But really, it's okay! Call him! When you're talking to him, ask him if he'd like to see you out of work some time (by 'departments' you mean work, I'm assuming). If he does like you, he sounds really shy, think of how thrilled he'll be when you call! I'm saying go for it! Good luck!

Okay. If you really like someone, I think it's good to take risks. The next time you talk to them, although it's going to be awkward at first, ask them if they're ready to take it to the next level. Think of it. What if they say "Sure! I've been thinking the same thing, but I was too nervous to ask you!". Think of how happy you'll be. If you really like this person, take a chance! Go for it! Good luck!

I can see you're focused on your grades. That's very good. The SAT's are very important, even if you have A's and B's through highschool in advanced classes. There are thousands of people a year trying to get into college. One point can determine whether you get in or not (I don't mean to scare you when I say that!). But if you've got A's and B's in advanced classes AND you do good on the SAT's, boy will they be impressed. Keep working and you'll do great!

Some people are just real, real stupid. Yes, they label people because of their looks and what they like, but I think deep down they're trying to cover up their insecurities. They think that by making fun of other races or how thin people are, it makes them look cool. The truth is, when they point their finger, they've got four fingers pointing right back at them.

But yes, labels can get to be REALLY annoying. Um, death is a tiny bit harsh, but the best thing is, is to try and ignore it. Those who make fun of and taunt people are bound to get it right back at them. Plus, if anyone dares to label you, tell them to buzz off. Make people view you how you want them to view you. Just don't worry about it.

Try to find things you both have in common. Sports and school might be good to talk about. Maybe even try playing some sports. You can try playing video games with him(personally, I like them). What about music? If you like the same music...blast it! Jump on your bed and sing to it! (Actually, don't do that. Parents can get annoyed sometimes.) Try talking to him first, though. That's the best way to start things, I think. Just let him know you love him and care. He should open up eventually.

OMG girl, don't say that! No one whose heart is kind and faithful is a waste! Do something fun and spontanious! Just yell into the heavens, let it all out! Live life as if it were the last day! Go out with friends, put your feet up and relax! Everything good you've done will eventually come back to you--believe me, I know. If you ever have anymore concerns, we're here for you. Take care!

Okay, you're her friend. First: ask her if she likes him. If so, that's fine that she does. What's not okay, is that he's moving too fast. She's young, they just met, you can't let her...do it with him. If she does like him, let her tell him she likes him, but make sure she tells him she's not ready. That she won't be ready for a while. If they want to go out, let them go out. But under no circumstances, none whatsoever, DO NOT LET HIM PRESSURE HER!!! If he does, move on. If he wants to force her into doing something she doesn't want to do, he's not the one for her. Good luck!

Hey, I'm writing a story too, it has dragons, but it's much different. Anyway...
If you're describing the dragon, makes sure to describe it in detail. The hues of the scales, its piercing eyes, the build of its body. If there's a person who finds the dragon (runs into the dragon, etc.) describe their reactions. I mean, it's not every day you see a dragon! ^^ Let's see...you want to hold this dragon in great esteem, it's about to save the world (is it?). Perhaps a character could whisper something to themselves in awe about it. Right now, that's all the advice I can give. Just find a way to build up the excitement! You'll do fine!

Let's see...fun stuff to do...well, I don't know if it's winter where you are, but my friend and I love to build snowforts. HUGE ONES!!! Just throwing a sleepover party with all of your best friends is great too. Get soda, chips, whatever else you want, and movies. Lots and lots of movies (preferably scary movies and the most hilarious comedies you can think of). I'm sorry if my stuff doesn't sound fun. But anything you can do with your friends can be fun. I wish you luck in finding something you like to do though.

My cat did the same thing before when she was around the same age. Even until this day, occasionally, she'll throw up. She's completely healthy though, so it doesn't mean she's incredibly sick. Try some hairball food, Iams is pretty good. If she doesn't get well soon, then you should probably take her to a vet. Good luck!

I think this is probably one of the hardest things a person has to do in their lifetime. A friend is like a dear relative. They're there for you to lean on when you can't hold yourself up anymore. I know you don't want to lose your friend, so at some point in time, you'll have to tell someone. If you don't do anything, nothing will change. Try some of these things:

1. Try talking to her again. Remind her that she's important to you. Tell her you're not trying to hurt her--you're trying to HELP her. If that doesn't work...

2. If you seriously believe her parents are the ones harming her, tell someone right away. I think you shouldn't quickly go to the authorities, but do tell someone.

3. If she is cutting herself or trying to get attention...once again, tell someone. There may be some online or over the phone help services too.


I hope I helped in some way. I wish you the best of luck, I know you'll do fine.

I think he's probably nervous. I don't know how guys think, but what I do know is, is that...maybe he's kind of sensitive? Maybe he feels like he'd be violating or offending you. I think you should give him more subtle signs. He'll get the idea eventually.

Hey! I've been here before! You get all excited and you can't stop thinking about him right? Yep. Here's what I think. Take a chance. Who cares what anyone thinks? If you like someone, go for it! Don't be afraid to like him. Hang out with him! It's an amazing feeling when you like someone. If you don't take the chance, how will you know what's right? You've looked before you leaped, now do it! I wish you the best of luck!

Hey, you're just like I am...emotional. It's hard, but whenever something like this happens, you've got to remember that there are a lot of horrors out in the world. I had a problem like this once. Perhaps their life at home isn't exactly a happy one, she may not be fortunate to have caring parents. She may have suffered great losses, such as losing family--that takes YEARS to get over. I'd suggest that maybe talking to her, not mentioning what she said to you, could make her feel like there's someone out there for her. If she still doesn't give a nice reply, try not to get upset. Some people out there just aren't the nicest. But we're all here for you.

Hey! My name's Kristen and I'm here to be a shoulder for anyone to lean on. I'll be honest, but I sware I'll only do what's best for you. I'm not here to hurt people.
I am a martial artist, I've trained in Shotokan for a year and Kempo for a couple of months. I love singing, acting, and writing, just a couple of my passions. Video games are my saviors on snow days, my favorite color combination is red and black, I love dragons and tigers...um, yeah, that's about it for now I guess.
