one of my friends ( a girl ) cheated on her boyfriend who is also my friend. she told me not to tell him but i feel like he needs to know. but i dont want her getting mad at me. what should i do? answer tonight would be great (link)
You are in a tough situation. You need to tell your friend that either she tells your other friend that she cheated, or you will tell. That will probobly make it easer for her to decide. Knowing this can make things a lot more complicted, and ask yourself if you would want your friend to tell you that your other friend is using your bf or not.


I am a football player. I am 6'4 320 about and exactly fat fat but fat. I am pretty strong but not good looking. I understand this and i am losing weight. I am extremly friendly have lots of friends and have no problem talking to girls, but because well ithink because of my weight thats all it amounts to. I dunno but i am losing weight and all but what do i do now. I cant live like this its hard not having a person to hold. I guess i need dome help. I feel weird asking this. My friends would laugh so hard if they ever saw this. Oh and i will be going to college for football as a lineman. I am a junior. I have a year left and i need some help. (link)
OK. You seem to have a great personality and weight can be an insecurity sometimes, but you need to realize that if someone doesn't like you because of your weight then they are not worth it. Why try to impress some girl who's judging you by your wieght and not by who you really are. TRust me. People are rude in high school and will make fun of anyone for the smallest imprefection. YOu need to go for whatever girl you really like and i hope that she sees you for who you are. Thats great that your losing wieght, but try not to see it as helping you with getting whatever girl you want.


Ok, my best friend in the entire world's brother has a crush on me. He asked my friend for my s/n but is kinda shy and hasnt IM'ed me. And then my friend told me that he was interested but this was way back in january. So about a month ago me and my friend went out to eat and he tagged along. So now I'm scared to go over her house. I'm afraid it will be awkward! Idk if I like him or not cus he's kind of a rebel and plus he's 17, almost 18, and i'm only 15, almost 16. What should I do?! (link)
It sounds like a huge mess, but asking yourself some questoins can help. First, how well do you know him? If you have not both talked and gotten to know each other, you may find out that you can't stand each other. Try to get to know him better if you feel like a stranger to him. Second, I don't think that age should be a problem, unless it's too akward for you. Plently of teenageres are a few years apart, and your ages should not be a huge problem, (but I don't know how strict your paretns would be about that)(unless you rebel...hehe) But anyways, you should definitly try to talk to him and try not to be shy about it, because you have to be serious to find out if he really likes you or not. Good luck!


I've been trying to watch what I eat lately, and it doesn't seem to be working. I have trouble controlling the amount of calories I intake, and it's getting to be a problem. I'm on the verge of being overweight, and I've been getting more active. Food is the only thing in the way.

What can I do to help restrain myself from eating just junk. Any suggestions or tips? Anything?


Thank you so much! (link)
Food control can be a problem for many people. Some things to do before you start snaking is asking yourself if you are really hungry. If you just ate, it will take about 15 minutes for your food to digest, so wait and see. It sounds starnge, but someetimes you are actually thiristy when you are hungry. Try having a glass of water if you feel a hunger strike coming on. Last, if you are really hungry and you don't want to go overboard, only allow yourself healthy foods. Try to eliminate junk food and pop from your house and put fruit and nuts around you instead. Having less temping foods around you will make your urges a lot less strong. I hope that I helped!


okay well ive taken trip-c , aka coricidin cough and cold .. i heard its bad but i love the feeling . is this really bad ? (link)
Yes, those drugs are very bad for you. You may not feel sick or have any bad after-effects from it, but you may have just been lucky. YOu may feel fine, but you don't know what could be going on inside of your body. Large doses may cause you to faint, your ogans may fail, and your heart may even stop. I strongly suggest that you stop your usage as soon as possible, but if you feel that you cannot stop then you must get help from someone emmedietly. Please don't take this matter lightly. You are in serious danger of harming yourself.


I don't understand why it's "dangerous to only eat 500 calories or less per day. I've been doing it for a long time and I feel fine. Like today for instance, I had a small bowl of cheerios with almond milk for breakfast, romaine lettuce salad with Italian dressing for lunch, Jamba Juice, and then sushi for dinner. All in all, I had about 500 calories today. I feel fine and I ate 3 meals anyway. So what's so "dangerous" about it? (link)
It is not weird that you feel find eating 500 calories a day, but it is not very healthy. On average, most people are supposed to eat around 2000, so you are not getting enough nutrients. This could lead to you fainting, getting sick easily, loosing too much wait, becoming very weak, or even loosing hair. You need to either make bigger meals or snack more in between your meals. Your health could be at a very high risk and you need to recognize that food is essential for everyday energy. Good luck.

lately, i've been feeling kind of down sometimes.
It's like, when im hanging with my friends, im fine most of the time.
When I'm home, with nothing to distract me, I tend to get very depressed.
Well depressed is a strong, i just feel kind of sad for no specific reason.
I get in a lot of fights with my parents and that stinks, and I like a guy I can never have, but besides for that I have a pretty good life.
What's going on?
What do i do?
Thanks! (link)
First, I think that you need to find out what is causing you to become depressed. Is it this guy that you feel you can never have? Are you fighting with freinds? The thing that you need to talk to a friend or parent about your feelings and that may help with your sad emotions. Depression is something that needs to be recognized and helped before it spirals out of control. Try and either get help or find the source of your emotions and try to fix them. I hope that I helped.
