im 14 and im a girl, well theres this kid that i like and he likes me too, but i dont think he will ask me out because hes afraid that i will say no. I dont know if i should ask him out or just wait to see if he asks me. what should i do? (link)
don't ask him about; let him step up to the plate. however, drop him hints that you like him. therefore he won't be in fear of rejection :-D. goodluck with you two !



My friend is mad at me for a dumb reason and she says she does not want to be my friend but I know shes lying, because she has done this before. What can I do to so her I want to be her friend? (link)
just apologize & let her know you are sorry for whatever you did to uspet her. Just give her space & she will come around. *Note: i have one of those friends who say that don't want to be your friend ever again, but by the next day they are your friend again.. oh boy. lol. hope i helped!



So, I'm in 8th grade (im a girl) and recently I geuss I have begun to be really good friends with a 5th grader (boy) (i go to a SMALL Catholic school in the middle of no where). Now I like him much more than a friend, but i dont know if it's wrong to like him more, or what i can do about it?. (link)
you might not see it right away; but the age difference will have an affect. you are nearly a teenager & he is still a *kid with a lot of puberty to go through.. i think the best thing for you guys is to remain friends. However.. maybe things might come up in highschool or what not. but i think you should stick to your age group :-D hope i helped.



Ok, I'm a really bad procrastinator if I'm really not interested in doing something.

Tips to help? I know it's bad...how did you overcome it?

Thanks! (link)
start a routine from when you get home from school. that helped me. set limits for yourself like no aim or televisino until im done with my *homework for example. I used to be one of those *save your homework till late sunday night kind of people. but i realized why cram it all in one night where you can just get it over with friday & enjoy the rest of the weekend! :-D



ok this probally going to sound really gross or whatever but..when i shave my arm pits theres still like black dots...and my arm pits usally get really red...what should i do to get rid of the black dots and redness (link)
okayy well im all for the *venus razor. you might want to give that a try. Also__ make sure you shave in the shower where water is constantly hitting your skin therefore its easier to remove the hair. To decrease the redness ask your doctor. I got special cream and literally went away within two days. However i did dispose the cream now since i no longer have the problem; so i can't give you the name of it. hope i helped :-D



theres this kid in my school (one year older) that last year asked me out..at the moment i didnt "truley" like him..but i kind of did. but i still said no. then this year came by and we became really close friends, and now im starting to like him..but he doesnt feel the same way? did i already lose my chance? waht should i do?

I RATE WELL=)
(link)
well after guys get rejected.. they normally are just on to the *next. however, drop hints about how you feel, because you just might be suprise :-D



hey....im 13 and this lady calls me everyday asking me to babysitt her kids...i already told her that my mom said i cant because i already babysit 2 other kids and i have homework...and a life but she keeps on calling asking me to babysitt them....mind you she has like 5 kids...and she has a older son then me that can watch them so why does she need me to watch them???

comment please (link)

well for starters; i don't think she would really approve of her teenage/older son to take care of the younger children. Tell her that you're very sorry that you can't baby-sit and that ill call you when i am free. The mom probably just wants a break from playing the mom role.. but really she should of that about that in the beginning.. but if any of your friends are in need of baby-sitting jobs__ recommend them.



ok so, my moms phone is broken and my dad said if i can convince her to take my phone, i can have a better one. I was wondering how i could convince her.. (link)
tell your mom that you're concerned that she will not be able to get important calls &&__ what if something happens and she won't be able to contact anyone. let her know the consequences of not having a cellular device :-D



hey finals are coming up soon and i'm not a very big study person for tests quizzes etc.... i was wondering what i could do to study like study techniques or tips or even ideas ~*~ much appericated thanks ~*~ (link)
same here.. im not really a huge study person. However, in the past group study sessions really work for me. Hold the sessions somewhere quiet; therefore they're no distractions. Also, you can take pre-exams on the internet. My school gives us sites to help us prepare. Check with your guidance counselor or even just a teacher to see if they have any systems set up. good luck on your finals :-D



Okay so... I'm trying to watch a movie. I insert the tape into the VCR, make sure power is ON.. and press PLAY. According to the VCR.. the tape is playing. HOWEVER, I don't see the movie on ANY channel. Not Ch. 1, not Ch. 2, not Ch. 3, not Ch. Video, not Ch. "FRNT", and there isn't a Ch. 4. AHH!! WHY!? What is wrong? Any ideas? When the VCR is powered ON.. ALLLLLL of the channels have a black screen and say "Unusable Signal". Then once I turn the VCR OFF.. that message and goes away and it is back to normal. I don't have Satellite, so I don't understand the "Unusuable Signal" part. Can anyone help me, or at least point me in the right direction? (link)
on my remote i have a tv/video button; which sets the tv. Try to look for that on the remote or on the vcr as well. also__ make sure all the settings on the vcr & tv are set correctly, i do admit i have had the same issue & just forgot to click on the buttons.. hope i helped.



18 and F, y'all and needing advice with a boy. Same thing.

Long story short, I've got a guy friend who's a big flirt. This wouldn't bother me if it wasn't for one thing -- he's really physical about it. He does stuff like rubbing my back and kissing my head, weird stuff that my other guy friends, even the flirts, don't do. And the worst part about it that he's got a girlfriend and god knows what she thinks.
This all makes me a little uncomfortable, but I don't know if I should bring it up with my friend, because I don't want things to be awkward between us -- and maybe I'm overreacting (see, I used to like this guy way back when). Plus, since I'm going to college this summer, I probably won't be seeing him as much and it won't be such a problem...so I'm thinking maybe I should just shut my trap about it, but I'm not sure that's the best idea. What do you guys think? (link)
*i think you should let him know its making you feel uncomfortable. plus, he has a girlfriend. yeah summer is coming up therefore it would be an issue if you don't see him, but i would still let him know. & things wouldn't get awkward between you two if you don't seem him a lot in the future.. however don't be continuing your friendship if something is bothering you. let him know :-D

hope i helped


I snuck out last night and went to see my boyfriend. His parents found out I snuck out, and they're telling MY parents. How do I get outta this? I can't tell my parents the truth before they call, because what if they don't even call? I already talked to his mom, and shes not happy with me, and shes not willin to give me another chance. What do I do?

Thanks!! A BUNCH! (link)
ooh yeahh sneaking out does have its consequences. mmmk well i think you shoudl talk to your boyfriend's mom again. Let her know that you made a irresponsible decision and reassure it will never happen again. However, this part might suck, but i would tell your rents because they are going to want to hear the t.r.u.t.h. from you not from your boyfriends mom. I hope everything works out :-D


I've known this guy for years. We were also friendly towards each other. He's a senior and I'm a sophomore now. I really like him and have always had a thing for him, and I think he might like me, but I'm not sure. I'm afraid to tell him how I feel because I always get taken advantage of every single time I do with no exception ever.

I think he likes me because he says things that just make it sound like he does. He told me that a friend of his said once years ago we'd make a cute couple but he thought that I didn't really like him much. He made it sound almost like a suggestion. He picks me up and gives me a hug everytime he sees me. He also said admitted to hitting on me all the time and thinks I'm the best looking girl in the school.

Still, I'm not sure. I'm afraid to tell him about my feelings no matter what he says, unless he said something first and it kills me because I love him. He's the first and only guy I've ever loved and I'll never forget him. He'll be graduating soon... I'll lose him if I don't act but I can't do anything about it. I've tried and end up babbling about something stupid that ends with us both laughing.

What do I do? (link)
since you guys seem to be great friends.. just give him hints to show how you feel. I would let him know how you feel pronto.. because he is leaving soon & i don't want you to regret never telling him how you feel. i hope it all goes well.. keep me posted :-D



Im "graduating" from middle school on June 13th. The problem is is that I need to know where I can get a dress that isn't to formal, but formal enough for an 8th grade graduate. Any suggestions or places are appreciated! (link)
yeah, i had the same problem when i was 'graduating' from middle school. I was stumped on was where to find one that wasn't too dressy, but appropriate. Try charlotte russe &&__ windsor. They have some super cute dresses that are at very reasonable prices. You may also try boston store. I hope i helped out! have fun at *graduation. :-D



(I wasnt quite sure where to place this question, so I just chose here)
I have been dating a guy for about a month and a half now, and he is about to graduate from highschool. We dont know eachother very well, which is why I am about to ask this. I got invited to his graduation party, which is a bit less than a month away now. Problem is, I have absolutly no idea what to do for a gift. I dont know what types of things you get for someone who is graduating, this is the first time I've had to deal with having to get a graduation gift. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated! (link)
Well since he is graduating and going off to college get him something that well be useful to him in college. For example get him a gift card to one of his favorite stores (ask him) or someplace that he can get stuff for his dorm. (example: target) i hope i helped.. :-D
