Dear Looking Up,
Talk to your mom, about the babysitter. Talk to your babysitter to tell her the same thing you told me that you look up to her and that you feel like you will start smoking, with her around. maybe she's not a good babysitter for your family? I'm not here to give negativity, Tell your mom you don't feel comfortable with this. About her smoking. Also your mom has a budget to and if your mom has enough to pay for you your brother the bills, ect. Think about your parents lifestyle to, you shouldn't be worrying about your babysitter and stuff like her bills. Your mom and the babysitter should work this out, you know? Talk to them!

Call one guardian to come and help you! Why are you alone? Mom, Dad, call them tell your guardian your sick. Even if your a college student or something have your friends there. Or guardian.

alriight well i have this best friend, hes a guy, im a girl. we've been best friend for a pretty long time. i guess you could say were not your ordinary guy and girl friendship. we sit with each other at lunch, we call each other alot, we hang out every other weekend or so, we tell each other everything, etc. Well, yeah you know how i said i sit with him at lunch. well we whisper, like mostly whenever we talk we whisper, just because, we dont know why. well anyway i sit next to him and were always whispering and stuff. and the one day i was tired and i was resting my head and he put his arms around me and started shaking me.. then the one day they tried to stick pizza in my face and they know i dont like eating lunch, so i tried to like get up from the table but his shoulder was in the way so i ended up throwing myself over his shoulder and i just laid there and then i got off.. and then he was like, im not feelin to good and i was like.. ew throw up that way and hes like, ill be fine let me use your arm as a pillow, and he layed on my arm but then he got up like 10 seconds later.. alriight so i guess my question is, are we really flirting? my friend keeps saying that we would be really sweet together and even my teacher think were going out.. because this one time my math and science teacher were talking and he was whispering to me and he said something weird so i straightened up and looked at him with a suprised face and slapped him lightly on the shoulder and he started laughing and pulled me back down so he could finish and i looked over at my teachers and my science teacher looked at us all weird and my math teacher said something to her and she was like, "aw".. it was really weird.. well anyway are we really flirting?

Dear are we really flirting?
YEP! Full throttle! Your flirting it's about time to make a move cause obviously he hasn't! So go for him! Always if you like a guys you should become friends with him first and you past that point, tell him if he doesn't want to date you, you still want to be friends. It WILL work out, He seem like he likes you. It's almost as if you already dating.

okay so there is this guy, yes very cliche and everyone asks these types of questions..but anyways. I dated this guy for about 7 months. A couple months ago we broke up and ive kind of been attracted to his best friend. Ive liked his best friend for a while, even while we were dating. The problem is he doesnt want to hurt his friends feelings by dating me he tells me im hot and flirts with me a lot and i just dont know what to do. Could someone help me pleasee. ILL RATE YOU HIGHH!

confused. (link)
Dear Confused,
If he likes you he likes you it's not your fault!If you want to date him you should. There best friends it's not like your dating his best friend while your still together. Go for him! But more advice don't tell the guy you like that you've liked him even when you were dating the other guy to, Cause that will travel fast and get you screwed and confused.

okay my friend is having a party tomorrow night and her parents arent going to be home .. and my mom treats me like im 5 so im thinking of getting dropped off early and then sleeping over there and then getting picked up later the next day so theres no sign that there was a party .. do you think thats going to work?? cuz if it doesnt then im screwed!! (link)
Dear Party,
What you should do is talk to your mom be like mom i'm _ and i really don't need to be treated like they way i've been feeling treated. Is there a way i could show you I'm as responsible as anyone else.
If you go to this party and 'sneak out' You wouldn't have your mom's trust and your going to need it in the future. Also if you think your being like the other kids and being grown up by going out to this party and sneaking out. What if you get caught? Then you won't seem like such a mature teen. My best advice is talk to her.

Sincerely,
Sydney

I'm moving schools this summer. I went to visit my new school, and very few ppl were nice to me. Everyone else knows that i just came from a privite school, so they hate me and treat me like garbage. I no that all privite school students are different, and i know that i am! I really don't care what other ppl think, but i really want to make friends at my new school. How can i show them that i'm a normal person and not a snobby rich student they think i am? I really want to make friends their, but it's so hard when they don't know the real me. How can i show them?

Dear school problems,
OMG! I just moved from a private school to a public and it's not different but they think it is. Wear normal clothes to school don't act like it's a fashion shoot or they'll prove themselves right! Act like a sweet girl get into community school work, show them your not some stuck up rich kid! to make a friend be a friend. So get into after school activitys to meet people who have things in common with you. You'll make plenty of friends just Shine!

Ive always had a small group of friends that all got along. Well in the past 3 days it all fell apart. One friend got mad at me for something totally retarded, and then all of a sudden the other friend had a problem with me too. Now come to find out they've been talking behind my back about it. Im not saying they're totally at fault for whats going on because I know I am partly responsible for it, but I dont see why they couldnt come to me and say whatever it is they had to say instead of ganging up on me and then talking behind my back. I just dont know what to do. Ive tried talking to them about it and that didnt make anything better they just acted as if I was full of it and ignored what I said. So should I just give up on 2 people who were my bestfriends and get over it, or keep trying no matter how bad things already are? Please help. And if anyone wouldn't mind it would be easier to give off the whole situation over aim to give a better view point. Thanks again everyone. (link)
Stuck,
You've tried talking to them and tryed working it out if they won't help the situation themselves then they obviously weren't best friends or maybe not even friends in the beginning. So ignore them your real friends will help you out with gossip issues. The girls will realize they lost something. I know it's really hard to lose good friends and move on and forget it, but if that's what it takes. Find better friends! :]

Me and my best friend have been best friends for ages.but now i feel she is going off with another girl.If i talk to her about it she goes your my best friend not her,but yet she still goes off with her.
what shall i do? (link)
Dear Friends,
The best you could do is talk to her (Seriously)
She'll understand, Say That you feel left out and that you aren't best friends. Say what you feel that usual helps people realize the truth.

my parents are way overprotective. like my friends are allowed to stay out til 11 or later, and i have to be back before dark! what can i do? (link)
Your parents like most parents are trying to protect you. If you like staying out later maybe you don't have to go out but maybe your friends can bring the out to you, like sleepovers. Just remeber there trying to protect you. So Maybe go out with your friends a little earlier.

Sincerely
