There's a guy I like, and I'm thinking about telling him how I feel. Well, there's a big dance coming up and I was thinking about telling him then. Maybe while we slow dance or something... but then again, that could make it awkward. Any ideas/tips on what I should say and when I should say it? Thanks! (link)
You should ask yourself to if he likes you too. If he likes you too it makes the situation easier. But when at the dance, wait till they play a slow moving song. Half way throught he song when you feel your more comfortable, slowly tell him. Tell him he has a beautiful smile. Tell him his eyes are like saphires. in otherwords compliment him. not to much just a little. then if he returns the compliments, you know you can show your feelings a little more. If you tell him out of the blue it might make him uncomfortable and you'll end up alone. Buit if you take it slow, chances are you'll do fine.


Okay so me and this guy just started going out and I was wondering guys what your girlfriends do that make you want them. Like I want him to want me. Like things that will drive him crazy.. I hope that makes sense. Lol. Thanks thho for any ideas. Girls if you know what im talking about what do you do to get your boyfriends all excited and crazy over you? Thanks. (link)
Tease him with a smile. Give him winks. When he wants to give you a kiss give him a quickie and pull back and smile. Be flirty. When you look at each other gently lick your lips and slowly. Let your imagination run wild. Hope i helped.


So im 17 (female) and I just recently had my first kiss. I know seems kind of sad that im just getting it now. But it was just a peck and I thought I was going to pass out I was so nervous.
I was just wondering what good ways to kiss are, you know like different techniques, and where to put the ends, etc. thanks you guys!
(link)
don't you worry about getting your first kiss at 17. Im 25 and i had my first kiss 4 months ago. Yes it is nervous. Especially me as a guy having made the fist move. but you know, two or three kisses and the nerves calm down. There are many teqniques. depending on what you'd like. A french kiss, or just a quick kiss. I'll try help you. when you and your guy are alone and you feel the moment is right, look into eachothers eyes. smile at eachother or wink. it really calms you down. then slowly move your face to his. your heart will begin to beat. but dont worry its normal. we all go through that stage. If he still does not turn or reject, then gently brush your lips against his. Then part. If it went well nature will take over. when your lips meet again hold them against his and gently let your tongue slide across his then put it back. If his tongue returns the favor your well on your way to a passionate kiss that will leave you either breathless or weak at the knees/dizzy , or both. You go girl. You can do it. Need more help. email me at acu-build @hotmail.com . Id love to help you. Other than that I hope i helped and best of luck.


what do you look for in a girl, physically && personality wise? what turns you on about them or makes you want to take to them more? anything helps. Thanks. ill rate. (link)
I'll try answer this to the best of my ability. What do I look for in a girl. Physically, Im not to picky. I mean every person is created in their own unique way. Sure if a girl is fat from over eating, thats an obvious turn off. But I mean if it has to do with her metabolism then not provided shes active. I like girls with a pretty face. Im not a guy that right away undressesa girl with my eyes. Small breasts, big breasts, doesnt matter. I like beautiful eyes. not short hair. bottom line, natural beauty. Personality. I like girls with humour, shy but not to shy. communicative. Caring. Understanding. not judgmental. open minded. I hope I helped you a bit.


My boyfriend's birthday is coming up and I wrote him a poem in his birthday card called "Your Love". I showed it to my sister and a friend and they both told me it was depressing. It doesn't feel that way to me but I don't want him to think it is so can I get a general vote on this as a first-hand impression. I don't want to make it seem negative or anything...

Your love is wine
Moist in my mouth
It tastes too sweet to be
Something I could drink ordinarily

Your love is rum
Burning my throat
A warm feeling on a cold night
But only for a while

Your love is vodka
Turning my stomach
Dizzy spells leading to insanity
And a carefree state of mind

Your love is poison
Holding my breath
Ending my heartbeat
You make me blind (link)
Yes it is depressing. "especially these verses
Your love is vodka
Turning my stomach
Dizzy spells leading to insanity
And a carefree state of mind

Your love is poison
Holding my breath
Ending my heartbeat
You make me blind
-----------------------------------------------
I have here a poem for you. I hope you will like this one.

I Love You
With my every breath,
With all I have left,
From the deepest depths,
Of my heart, I love you.

With all of my strength,
With ten miles' length,
Every thought I think,
I think that I love you.

For the length of forever,
As long as we're together,
Through good and bad weather,
For always, I love you.

Until the very end of days,
Until God takes my breath away,
Until death separates our ways,
Until then, I love you.

When no one is there,
When you think no one cares,
When love seems too rare,
Remember, I love you.

When everything's gone,
When all has withdrawn,
When hopelessness dawns,
Don't forget, I love you.

When you fall down,
When your dreams come unwound,
When hope can't be found,
Be happy, I love you.

When you make mistakes,
When you're filled with hate,
When you're old and gray,
Even then, I'll love you.


Hope I helped you


if a guy older than you who you like is pressuring you to have sex or oral sex and you are not going out and are only friends is he only in it for sex? btw im 13 hes 16 (link)
sweetie, listen to me. You like this guy. Thats a good thing. But trust you me on this one. He is lusting after your body to satisfy his sexual needs. You are only thirteen. Please dont cave in. Stand strong. You deserve better than having someone using you to fulfill their sexual desires. Hang out with your girlfriends. Enjoy life but please dont fall into this potential disaster. You take care okay.


What works better;; sit-ups or crunches?? This is to get rid of stomach flab && make it look nice and flat for summer. Or are there other stomach exersizes that work better?? Do any of those work?? Any tips?? Thank A Lot!! (link)
What works good is this: Lay on your back. Lift your legs so your feet are off the ground. Place both hands on the side of your head. Then lift your upper body towards your knees. Same concept as a crunchie. Once there, hold for a count of three, then back to laying position. Repeat this in sets of 15. So you do fifteen, rest for thirty seconds, then do 15 again. Keep doing this till you just cant do it anymore. Also another is: Lay on your stomach. Now get into pushup position, except you will be resting on your forearms. So the only part of your body touching the floor is your forearms and your toes. Keeping body straight, tighten your stomach muscles. Hold for one minute. REst, then repeat. I hope I helped you. If you need more help, let me know.

dont really mind the weight, just that i look fat. also advice for flatter abs...besides the basic crunches? please help. it would be muchly appreciated. (link)
You know, running wont exactly make you look slim. and crunchies will firm up your abs but not burn all the fat. To burn fat, the muscles need to turn that into energy. How? by being used. Every evening, go for a 30min brisk walk. That warms your body up. Then do a routine fitness sequel. start from your shoulders, and end with your feet. do 15 pushups. do 15 jumping jacks. Sit on a mat and squeeze you butt cheeks. Hold for a few secs, then realx. Do 15 of them. Hold a book in each hand. Extend your arms in front of you. hold a few secs. Then extend them to the side. Hold a few secs. Do 15 of them. With a book in each hand, curl your arm to wards you then straighten it. Curl, straighten. Do 15 of those. Stand up, reach your toes straighten. Bend and reach. Do 15 of those. Stand on a step. hold on to something and get yourself on your tippy toes. then down again. Up and down. Do 15 of those. Go swimming, and biking. Before you know it, you will look as beautiful and slim as ever. I hope I helped. Make sure you drink lots of water.


okay i am 15 and i smoke. mainly cigarettes but every now and then some pot. i dont really even remember how i started to smoke. the weed doesnt bother me because it isnt a daily thing but the cigarettes are killing me. it is so hard to keep it a secret from my mother and most of my friends since they hate smokers. i want to stop but i just cant. i have tried. i would love some advice on how to quit but by myself. i dont want anyones help. i have thought about the gum and/or patches but then my mom would find out and plus those are expensive... some tips on how to at least cut back would be greatly appreciated.... (link)
welcome aboard. I am in the same boat as you. Hoever, in my case everyone knows. What will get you motivated? Try running one mile every morning. Go to a public pool and swim for a bit. The chlorine in the air will make a cigarette afterwards taste so bad. Drink lots of water. And eat lots. Not big meals. Just healthy munchies.if you have one smoke of and on, pls dont feel bad. I mean its not easy quitting. What also works and this requires will power, is put a full pack in your pocket and carry it around with you but DON'T TOUCH IT. I hope I helped you a bit. I know its not a whole lot but I wish you the best okay>


I don’t really have a problem with porn per say, it’s just every guy I’ve known well enough (i.e. have dated seriously or am related too) seems to be addicted to it.

Now my boyfriend has confessed that lately he can’t go a day without watching porn, and sometimes is watching it two or three times a day. He has been late to meet me several times and is having issues handing work in on time. He hasn’t said it, but I think porn is the distraction.

So I want your opinion, how much is too much? (Obviously my boy knows he has a problem and is going to work on it) And what should I say to him? I’m stuck between telling him he ought to give it up and just trying to be supportive with scaling back because I think that’s all he plans on doing. I just figure; if you can’t manage it in moderation, stay the hell away from it.

Beyond all that, I’m getting a little ticked off honestly. I wouldn’t mind once and while when I’m not around, but this is just insulting. I know he’s under a lot of stress right now, but come on. (link)
You truly are a loving girl for him. I mean my ex and i were engaged, and she came over one saturday night. When I was in the shower, she saw one porn site on my computer. Result, she went beserk. Hysterical. Insane. I never saw her again. I hope you wont do that. Yes porn is horrible. A destruction of the mind. Obviously you two have great trust. I mean he even confessed it to you. So if i were you, sit down with him. Tell him you feel very uncomfortable with him watching porn. Tell him he means everything to you. You tell him, " ..if you really love me, you'll rid yourself of it...." Spend more time together, talk on the phone more, IM eachother. Try get his mind of it. If all else fails, see if you can set him up with a counselor. They are very helpful. I hope I helped.


It's almost my boyfriend and I's 2 month anniversary... do I get him something or just ignore it? If I should get him something what should it be? (link)
personally, I would leave that for your six month aniversary or one year. However, my sister got 1 rose the first month. 2 roses the second, three roses the third and so on........ two months is quite short. Unless you two have gone through alot, I wouldn't worry about it. Enjoy eachothers company. You take care.


idk i just need someone to tell me (sorry its long)

Me: i dont care if you cant help all i care about is that you care
HIM (link)
Your thirteen. That means, your life is just starting. The first year of your teens. The time to enjoy yourslef and your friends, to learn and explore. Not to get tied up in a relationship especially long distance. Let him go. Dont think about him. Dont message him. Dont call him. Later in life your mr right will come to you when you least expect it and then there will be no doubts in your mind. You have to ask yourself and answer too what it is that you like about him soooo much. What attracts him to you? What dont you like about him? .


i think my boyfriend is cheating on me he went out and bought me a whole bunch of things and i think he does'nt want me to suspect anything when it comes to the phone we used to be alot but not alot if u know wat i mean but anyways now when i try to call him is phone is off or he presses end wich makes it go to voice mail and i call his home phone and i can hear him and another young girl in the backround i can tell that the girl is like 15 around his and my age but his room mate always answers and says he's not there. wat do you guys/grls think is he cheating on me or am i just being paranoed (link)
no your not being paranoid. There is reason for concern. I mean if he wont bother to talk to you then there is something fishy going on. What you can do and this might be sleezy but you want to know right? so, get a friend to drop by his house ever so often, and see who hes with. Then you know for sure. Other than that, talk to him, let him know whats on your mind. If all else fails, say goodbye to him. Harsh? maybe, But you say he might be cheating. This means you dont trust him 100%. Thus the relationship is not solid but based on iffy's. I hope I helped you somewhat.


I love knowing that my boyfriend is caring and trusting but I can't help but feel like I need to watch him. I know he likes me and doesn't want to be with anyone else, but I can help checking the comments he gets from other girls on Myspace or how he looks at other girls. I know its pretty normal for any girl to do that. When he doesn't message me (when he's online) I get nervous that he thinks I'm insane or something. Yet I know that he probably isn't paying attention to the screen, is busy, etc. I've never been like this with any of my other boyfriends and he makes me nervous/intimidated, (In a good way) because he's exactly the type of guy I've always wanted. I just don't want to lose him but I know inside he likes me a lot. How can I deal with these somewhat jealous feelings I get when he talks with other girls and understand he likes me not them? Sorry if that sounded conceited, I'll rate. (link)
you know my ex girlfriend was exactly like that. when we were on line and i wasnt responding, she would go bonkers. or if i didnt phone message her back right away when she sent me a message she would go beserk. you have nothing to worry about. truthfully, your reactions are totally normal. It shows you really do love him. dont worry so much if he talks to other girls. ever guy does that. now if he were to have a drink with other girls or hang out with them more,yes than there is reason for concern. Be proud of him. and if you still are doubtful, sit and talk with him and let your thoughts and feelings out. hope i helped.


this guy i "like" keeps getting me mad, one day he likes me and one day he don't. WHY. he's leaving to vegas for a week and just before he left he says he doesnt like me but two days before he said on the phone he does and the likes this otehr gurl and he doesnt know waht to do, do you think he's doing that cuz he's leaving and yeah... but thats so stupid he does it when he's here too, i dont get it HELP (link)
You said you "like" him. Does that mean you are unsure. You know, This guy is not worth your time. I mean he's playing. He is not serious at all. I mean, he likes you or he doesn't. There should not be constant maybes. Don't waste your time with him. You'll come across a guy you will adore and he will adore you in return. I promise you. Don't let this guy get in your way. You take care.


im currently at about 140. if i do 200 jumping jacks and 100 sit ups every night, what's a resonable amount of weight i can lose in about a month, maybe two? plus im drinking a lot of water all during the day. any tips?

thanks, 5's for all. (link)
You know, truthfully, 200 jumping jacks a day and 100 situps won't really do it. Control your food intake. I don't say get rid of all fat foods and eat only low fat. NO!!. COntrol what you eat. Eat 3 meals and snack on fruit in between. Go for a 30 minute walk every morning or evening. Walk up and down the stairs for 10 minutes. Do 3 sets of 30 crunchies. Bend down knees slightly bent, touch your toes, hold, straighten out and do it again. Do 3 sets of 10 pushups. This should help you meet your goal. Its not how many you can do, but what you do and how you do it. And eight glasses of water a day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Hope I helped


ok. so i play volleyball and soccer and i have pretty toned stomach muscles, but i just have a little pudge over top, so whats a good way to get rid of that? (link)
Don't worry about the pudge. I mean if it doesn't affect your appearance don't worry. And plus, it adds to your physique. If it really bothers you, get into a pushup position. Body straight, legs stretched out. Now rest on your forarms. Set your timer. for 1 minute, tense your stomach muscles and hold. Rest. Do it again. Do it for a week and then go for two minutes. and so on. Cruchies may help as well. Hope this helped.


The guy i like worships the devil..i think..he is into wicca and i'm totally the oposite...i love Jesus and God. But is it wrong to have feelings for someone like that? (link)
Girl, get as far away from him as you can. trust you me. I say this out of care. You are going to get hurt. you will even be dragged into his psycotic lifestyle. You will lose friends. He is not worth you. Please, don't let yourself get hurt. U deserve someone better and more decent. take him off your mind. Give a guy of better morale a chance with you.


I've been in love with this guy for about a year now since the first time i layed eyes on him. He has a gf and I told him how much I liked him. He said he liked me too but I am too young. I can't seem to get over him and it rly hurts when i see him. But yet, I still want to and I still enjoy spending time with him. However, I need to get over him, should I get over him? Do you think there is any hope in the world for me to become his gf? Please help! 15f. hes 18m

Thanks in Advance,
Drowning in love
(link)
Yes. There is hope. Don't ever let someone tell you different. You deserve it. Its okay he has a gf right now. Don't worry. Don't change. Don't let him see you hurt or affected by him having a gf. You know, if you two are meant for each other, she is going to dump him or he is going to dump her and you two will be together. That is your hope. Thats why, don't give up. And you being to young has nothing to do with it. I mean now your 15 him 18. 2 years later, hes 20 your 17. Now it doesn't seem so big hey. Bottom line, age has no limits when it comes to true love. You take care.,


i was wondering if anyone knows any poems about love and romantic things i really need like at least three but if you onlt know 1 or 2 it's ok i still wanna hear them plez let me hear your poems (link)
I promise you my love
I promise you my heart
I promise you my life
I promise we'll never be apart

I promise not to hurt you
I promise to never make you cry
I promise to always trust you
I promise not to lie

I promise you forever

--------------------------------------------
My heart searches for you
everywhere I go,
hoping to see a trace
of the warmth I found
in your smile.
You are ever on my mind,
the tide that dashes
upon the shore,
keeping my heart awake
and my dreams alive.
And I could never still
these thoughts of you,
because you turn
the gray sky blue
when winter calls.
And when the night
falls heavy,
you make the stars
shine twice as bright,
lighting up
my world with hope,
and making me yearn for
the dawn that will bring us
one day closer
to being together

------------------------------------------
For every tear that falls
I will be there for you
For every inch of pain that you feel I will feel it to
I will be there for you through thick and thin
I will be your rock when you need me to be
I will always be there for you
For every heart ache you feel
I feel it to
For every ounce of misery you feel
I feel it to
What ever you do that makes you hurt
I will feel it
Love isn't something that you or I can run from
It's a feeling like no other
When you cry
I will cry with you
Through thick and thin I will always be there for you
When you feel like you have nothing left to live for
Remember me
I will always be there for you
For every time you smile
I will smile with you
For every tear that you cry out of joy
I will cry with you
I will always be there for you
