Q: ok, im 13, and i don't no what to do, i want to start to wear makeup but i kind of don't, i mean if i do, how will i tell my mom ,and if i don't when do i start?
wearing makeup is not that big of a deal. Unless your mom is extremely conservative... chances are she won't mind. Start out slowly a little eyliner and mascara with lipgloss eventually work your way up to eyes shadow and foundation. This is a stupid saying but o welll... the point of makeup is to make it like you aren't wearing any so wear light nuetral matching tones and go very easily a little bit goes a long way. As of when to start wearing it i'd say whenver you want to! Have fun with it!!

Ps. im sorry its so long but ill rate on good answers.
Just because you broke up doesn't mean you have to stop talking! Just be friends hang out and stuff like old times just the only difference is that there isn't anymore of the kissing boyfriend girlfriend stuff. Plan fun trip for you and your friends to go to the mall. Chances are you'll end up having a great time and who knows... maybe you'll meet a new guy!! Just don' let one break up get you down. So life made you fall... get back up and try again because god has always intended for second chances. Good luck sorry about the breakup.

Q: Hey. My mom doesn't know it yet, but I finally have a boyfriend. We don't really talk about this kind of stuff but I really would like her to know. I just don't know how to tell her. Do you guys have any ideas on how to tell her? Thanks so much.
Sit your mom down and while your talking be like. Mom how do you feel about me having a boyfriend. And she will give you her opinion and she'll be like why and you can say like well a few weeks ago ( or whenever it happend) so and so asked me out and I said yeah. I really like him mom and it's iumportant to me that you respect our relationship. All mom's are going to be nice if you stay calm and not raise your voice even if you disagree. Hopefully she'll be happy for you. Maybe tell her you'll invite the guy over for dinner so they can meet him. Good luck sorry this isn't the worlds greatest advice.

Q: Okay, I have this friend, Charles, and he is kinda my exboyfriend I guess. But since the day I met him and to this very second, he has changed a lot. He used to be caring and sweet. Now he's mean and an asshole. I don't know like what to do because he blames it on me saying I'm the asshole. So today I told him we should pretend we don't know each other for awhile and he's all like "well I know what's gonna happen, it'll be awkward to talk and we'll drift apart." Which personally is what I wanted because I want my old life back. And I told him that, and I also told him that I don't want him talking to my friends becuase he would have never known them if it wasn't for me. I know it sounds selfish, but he talks about me to them everyday and says all this stuff, which mostly isn't true, then they all like ask me questions. I'm like arghh!! Like I'm totally sick of it and I need help because now he's all like, "no that ridiculus, I'm not gonna stop talking to them." And tonight all of my friends got into a fight. I just stopped crying. I'm tired of it. I've had like major breakdowns where i just have to sit or else I'll kill someone. It's horrible. What should I do? Please help.



*I rate 5's for good answers*

♥ Broken, Lost,and Confused but not giving up.
This guy sounds like a real jerk. First off get away from him you can actually have the fone company block a number from being able to reach your house so report his number. If he starts coming to your house threaten to call the police. If he is honestly driving you so mad that you want to kill someone maybe you could get a restraining order but thats only nessacary if he like REALLLLY invading your personal life or threating you. Call your friends up one by one and say sorry even though you don't think it's your fault. Tell them you really don't like charles and your doing your best to get away from him. Tell her I just want you to know that I wouldn't lie to you what charles says isn't true. Make up with everyone of your friends and hopefully they'll see your point. Maybe every night before bed have some herb tea and just relax get rid of the stress because one guy isn't worth it. I hope this helps

answer these quesions please

how do I get closer to them

how can I talk to them with out being "anoying"

how can I really really really BE there friends


please giva LOTS and LOTS of advice plezz :)
thank you
ok sorry i didn't help much before I'll answer your questions in order
1) invite them over one at a time. Say one of your friends names was katie. Say to her in private.... Katie do you want ot sleep over or come over on Friday. Then if she says yes you guys can have some alone time and have her get to know you better and see that you can have a lot of fun and that you can be a really good friend. Find a way to sit down and talk just be having a regular conversation and then be like Katie I know I am getting on all of your nerves but i trust you to tell me why we aren't getting along as great anymore. If you don't want to do this maybe just bring up the idea that you guys can all hang out on firdays or maybe just you and katie that way they can see that you're still fun.
2)Talk to them one at a time. Maybe if you and one of your friends idk lets say her name was hannah are gonna hang out. Maybe go to the mall and while your shopping take a trip down memory lane. Be like we all used to have sooo much fun together. Do you think we will alwyas be as close as we were then. If her answer is kind of quick then there might be something wrong or if shes sarcastic that might not be good either but if she starts talking with you about being best friends etc... you know shes there for you and most likely its the same with everyone else
3) If you want to be a really reeally really good friend you have to open up completely. You say whats on your mind they say whats on theres let them in on your secrets as they will with theres offer advice wehn they need it or simply give em a hug if there sad. Call them a lot and plan to do a lot of fun things. Stick up for them when someone is mean and most importantly is always be there. Even if they call you in the middle of the night really upset about it.... now matter how tired you are... take the phone call trust me once these girls see how loyal you can be there gonna want to be your friends. I hope this helps you out and once again sorry the first advice wasn't the best. Leave feedback so i can no if i helped you out. Good luck!!

Q: i know there has been a lot of questions like this so... i hope i'm not getting on your nerves! okay my birthday is in october and i'm turning 14, i have no idea what to do for my party b/c i can't have everyone over to my house or anything and what would we do anyway? i was thinking maybe w/all girls head to a spa or something, but i have a TON of guy friends. so please help! GOOD answers get 5's i'll report you if i have to!
Well ask your mom if you could have the party at your house. Ask to invite all your friends. If she says yes then all you have to do is put a radio out on the back deck and all everyone does is talk migle dance and have fun. Later on you could have some sort of dinner with cake/ presents. Then you could come up with a game thats not to young for you guys. I foyur mom won't let you have your party at your house Maybe you could get a hall for a night like your parents could rent it and you could have a little dance party there. Make it fun have dance contests and prizes like whoever does the craziest dance wins a prize. If this doesn't work post some of your favorite thinga to do and I'll come up with something better
Good luck!!

Q: yea, its me again..I forgot to ask this..Well, i know that EvErYoNe argues and fights..Since i grew up in a family that everytime someone STARTED to argue, it blew out into a fist fight and cops coming and me getting hit, so everytime ANYONE at all argues, i get REALLY shaky, crying, and everything like that! I live with my dad now, i have for 3 years and nothing like this has happened before until now, or atleast i havent noticed it..Like a few weeks ago, my dad and step-mom got into a big arguement over something and i was in my room with the door shut, but i could hear them b/c they were only on the other side of the wall..and i know that this would NEVER happen b/c they're just not this kind of people, but since everything before happened, i was scared that they would hit each other and come after me and the police would come, but i know it wouldnt happen but i still get scared..can anyone give me any help on what i should do?? I really need help on this b.c its getting so bad that i actually hated them for a minute b/c i pictured it being my real mom..i got HORRIBLE flashbacks..Please help me!! :(
ok honey this is serious. You need to talk to your dad and step mom adn maybe consider getting a theripast. You have been through some tough times and i think this would really help you out. although im not from this expierience i can see where your coming form and why you are scared. So definatly talk to your dad about getting a theripast and just remember not all people are violent most people in the world are good. Post for further help or email me lilabdougirl9@AOL.com I really hope I helped. Good luck

Q: heyy i feel like i hav no frinds i hav 2 try and b friends w/ them and they just don't even care i think sum times they take atvatage of me but i still want 2 b there friends so wat do i do? i mean we r friends but 1 ofthem who i thought waz my best friend didn't even put me in her pro! the otha 1 said she wantz 2 b my friend wen i asked her but first she said kinda but i dono bout that the conversation waz confusing i think she said yeah but i just don't no wat 2 do should i get new friends or should i try and get closer 2 my otha friends and they want 2 b otha ppl's friends and i just am confused mayb cuz it waz my first year of middle school it waz confusing mayb this year will b betta and i'll find out who my real friends r so just give A LOT of advice and i'll rate REALLY REALLY hi kay
ok first of all these friends don't even sound like you should be wasting your breathe on them. My true advice is make new friends but if you really want to be friends with these people then you need to sit them down and be like seriously you guys... feelings aside here... i dont feel included and sometimes i feel like your taking advantage of me.... i guess its better for you to know the truth and get away from them then living a lie. But sometimes its paranoia. I went through a time where I felt like this one girl didn't like me AT ALL even though me her and 3 other girls were best friends ( we still are) but tehn i told this girl what i thought and she was like OMG of course i like you dude ur my best friend and then we were all happy!! so sit them down and tyalk if they dont take you serioursly they aren't worth you feeling sad. I hope I helped

Q: Okay well My problem is I like someone that is about 3 yrs older and i dunno what to do about this cuz my b-day is soon so i will be 16 and he is 18 now so this makes me only 15 and i heard it's jailbate, so should i still date him? I really like him a lot and he treats me so good...
~confused lover~
I honestly don't think that age difference is to much. I know a lot of people with boyfriends that are like 4 or 5 years younger. If you two really care for each other then it shouldn't even matter. Tell this guy that you like him say " you know i think that we should go out I think your cool and the age difference doesnt matter much. Have fun and hopefully he say yes. Good luck!

Q: I'm planning a surprise birthday party for my nephew. He'll be 11 in a couple weeks. He's really into army stuff, so I'm using that for the theme. Does anyone know of any party games that fit a camouflage/army theme? I'm going to make the cake myself, so I could use some suggestions on how to decorate it. Thanks!
An awesome game for that is manhunt. If you live by woods it works better but otherwise make do with what you have :-) manhunt is when there are two teams and one goes and hides they have to try to blend ni without getting caught. The other team has to run in the woods and try to catch them before they cross the boundry line into there safe zone. Then there is a jail and we all know how jail works :-D I hope this helps post in my inbox for further info

Q: i'm 14 years old, and i was raped about a month ago. my friend got helped me get a couple of pregnancy tests, and they all turned up positive. i'm really scared to tell my parents, because i was at a party that i wasn't supposed to be at when it happened. i'm a volleyball player for my school, and last year we almost won the championships. i don't want to throw my entire life away, but i know that i would never be able to put my baby up for adoption. i'd wonder every day if she/he was safe, or if they hated me for abandoning them. i'm strongly against abortion...but i'm starting to wonder if maybe that's the right choice in this situation. i haven't told either of my parents yet...should i keep the baby or is abortion ok sometimes?
Ok this is serious. To me all parents are the same. Yeah they'll be a little mad that you went to a party without there permission but I garuntee you that will be the last thing on there minds. They will be glad that your safe and concerned. First and foremost the desicion is what to do when the baby comes. I say you keep the baby. Your parents can help you raise him or her... abortion to me is worthless because its just a waste of an innocent life. I'm sure that your parents and friends will be extremely supportive of your desicion either way. As for the guy who raped you its important that you tell police what happened. Give them all the information and the whole story. File a restraining order and do your best to get this guy behind bars. I hope I helped... good luck I'll keep you in my prayers

Q: what foods are filling that you don't have to eat a lot of and will keep you full for a while and are good for you?
Balancing out your meals is important. Maybe for breakfast have an egg... some toast... and an apple. You have different types of food group portions in that one meal. For lunch maybe have a soup and salad. For a mid afternoon snack have some carrots in ranch dressing or banna slices. For dinner have some form of meat like steak with a veggie and then after dinner for dessert have a fruit salad. All of these are healthy and yummy and should keep you full. If your looking to stay full and not eat as much then maker your portions smaller. If you do this long enough you won't be so hungry any more. I hope I helped

Q: im fourteen and going into the 9th grade. i dont think im ugly, not georgeous or anything, but not ugly. im not fat, but i could tone up a little. for some reason im always feeling insecure though. in school, i dont talk much in class && everyone says im really shy. now once i get to know people they'll tell you im the loudest person they know. i love to talk && gossip. but it takes me awhile to get to know people, i want to know how people act and what they like before i start talking about random things to avoid making them mad if they dont agree with me on something. well anyway, i just moved almost two years ago and i havent quite adjusted yet. ive made new friends but it seems people still see me as the new girl, and me being shy doesnt help at all. once in our developemental guidance class they asked my friend amy who she usually hangs out with, and she said me. than this kid matt says something about how we both never talk, than our friend kristen starts laughing and says we never shut up. i wish i could be more social with people i dont normally hang out with, and that way i could also make more friends. also, everyone thinks im a goody-good. which theres not anything wrong with, but im far from it and i dont want people to look at me like that. how can i learn to be comfortable around everyone?
This sounds almost Identical to a friend of mine. My friend moved here a couple of years ago and if you didn't know her you would think she is the most quiet person ever! But she really talks ALOT! lol anyways theres nothing wrong with being a little shy. You just have to learn to be comfortable in your own skin. Making friends isn't always easy to do especially if your looking for really good friends. Just learn to not be afraid to stand up for yourself. Maybe even though its hard start talking a little more in class ( I mean by answering questions not diosrupting a lesson) people will be glad to see you coming out of your shell. Join a sports team aand this way you can talk and relate to the girls on the team. You are a great person and you just need to know that. Once you feel confident in yourself making friends will be a lot easier. Like the sound of your own voice and use it! I hope this helps

Q: ok well i might ask out a 6th grader and im in 7th grade and im probably gonna see her maybe 2 times a weekis this a problem?
Not if you like her! I think it's awesome that your asking out a girl thats younger then you. A lot of guys your age are worried of what people might think. If you only see her 2 times a week thats ok you guys can do a few things
1) talk on aim
2) email each other
3) talk on the phone
4) go to the movies or mall
Trust me once you go out with her and start to like her more and more you'll make time to see her! Good luck

Q: I swear I'm not trying to brag, I'm 13 and only like 70 pounds, I sit in front of my computer all day, I eat a bunch of crap food, I go to McDonalds all the time, but you can still see my spine through the front. How can I gain weight? I rate high usually, but smartass answers will just result in me asking "Why do you suck so much?" as one of those personal questions.
If your thirteen and only 70 punds you are REALLY underweight. unless your really short it's time to do something. If eating doesn't help you put on the weight talk to your doctor about some healthy ways to put it on... I wouldn't go out fo your way to do anything that involves weight loss such as jogging... its one thing to stay in shape another to lose weight. Just dont go on any diets and exercise but dont go to nuts. Your physician will be able to help you out whether its reccomending some foods or sending you to a nutricionist. If you go to wwww.am-i-fat.com and on the tab bar on the side click "am i fat" u can enter your weight and hight and it will tell you whether your under weigh over weight just right and wat you need to do. Good luck with this.

Q: I have a bunch of pimples on my chin and under my lips. I really hate them bc even with the tons of makeup i sover them up with they still pop out all gross and red. I would really love something that could make these DISAPPEAR!!!
those little pimples on teh bttom of your chin are brought no from the oils in your face. Buy a clean and clear face scrub ( one that specializes in acne) and rub it all over ur face like a mask give it a minute or 2 to works its way into your skin and then risne it off with warm water... do this every night and you should notcie improvements in no time... good luck
Kelli

Q: ok i only have a few barely noticible blackheads on my nose..i need to know the best product to use..nothing tooo costy either

thanks..i will rate good answers!
you can buy an exfoliator or face scrub at any drug store and some grocery stores. A good brand would be clean and clear because they specialize in products for the face. I reccomend getting a blackhead cream and rubbin it on your face like a mask right before you take a shower give it a minute to work its way into your skin and tehn wash it off with warm water in your shower... do this nightly and you should notice improvements. Hope I helped
