What is the estimated price for a wedding???
Thanks (link)
| |
It varies so much that I don't think there is really a general price range. It all depends on where you have it, the dress, the number of guests invited, food, reception, etc.

I have a friend, she's more like a little sister, and she often comes to me for advice. Usually they are matters that I can help her with or at least make her feel better when she needs to. She's been through a lot, growing up all she basically had was her mother and a tough mother to deal with at that. At times her mother wasn't the greatest and could be a real jerk, but there were some times she seemed to really care and take pride in her daughter. It's hard enough to tell my friend everything is going to be okay because her mom has a brain tumor, but now things have gotten worse. Her mother came here from Germany and was married then divorced and some how or another has been here illegally. Now she is probably being deported. Her lawyer says things aren't looking very good for her and that more than likely she will be deported. My friend is taking this really hard, though her mother hasn't always been the best she is all she has. I tell her I am here for her, which is all I know to do, but she's so worried. Her mom is putting everything she has in my friends name which is also making it so that my friend can't go to college like she was planning. How can I help her get through this? I know I can be there for her, but that just doesn't seem to be enough right now. (link)

Even if you did have the money to get the lawyer that got O.J. Simpson off the hook, you better find a shovel to dig him up, too... he's dead.
But I agree that at this point, there's nothing that you CAN do. Just before there for her like you've always been. She'll appreciate it. Listen when she needs you, be her shoulder to cry on, and try to get her mind off of things when you can. Other than that, I hope everything looks up for her and her mother.

ok i have this close friend,we went to camp together last summer and we go to school together also.i remember one day at camp i was really mad at her and i sad some nasty things about her with my other campfriend behind her back.now everythings fine.. but i was just thinking about that day and i want to apologize. she doesnt know that i talked about her, but i want to be honest.
should i just not bring it up cause it will go bad?
or its worth telling her even though it happened so long ago? help is appreciated (link)
| |
Don't bring it up. It'll just cause problems. It's over and done with, and the original problem that you had with her was solved.

i remember looking on a myspace code website from google
but i dont remember what i typed in to get it
i was looking for how to copy the webpage your on
like say i wanted to copy all this
it was a keyboard shortcut i think
so that i can save it as like a picture
and then post it as a picture
i dont think that made any sense
cause its hard to explain
but if anyone knows what im talking about
tell me how to do it!!!
(link)

i think you're talking about a screen shot? you press the prnt scrn key and the pause break key at the same time and then go to paint or something, and press ctrl c.
|

I have come to the point where I cant write, concentrate, derive pleasure from anything, have difficulty remembering things, have blurred vision, eyes seriously hurt, sometimes have severe headaches, most of the time dont know what I am talking especially with my elder brother. I have nt got father and mother I live my elder brother and his wife since 6 years. I am 26/M an MBA had a successful career but now since six months things have been deteriorating. I cant bear it any more. Plz tell me the easiest way to commit suicide which hurts less and is quick and doesnt make much of a mess. (link)
| |
Please don't commit suicide! Your brother and his wife love you, they need you. You have no idea what it would do to them to lose you. Seriously, don't end your life. Things WILL get better. You need to talk to someone about it. When you're mad, or sad, or happy or whatever, TELL someone. Tell anyone. Just don't think about killing yourself.

well in my partcial day class thing, theres this girl, her names tracy.. and like personaly the first time i saw her i thought she was a guy, like alot of my friends also said that too when they first saw her, but i when i first saw her i thought she was hott, cause i really thought she was a guy, but now that i know shes a girl im still attracted to her, and i dont get it. why?! does that mean im like bisexual or something ? because like.. i think i like her ? and its kind of odd.. someone please help ? (link)
| |
Everyone becomes curious about their sexuality at some point. I wouldn't say you're bi, because you really don't know yet, and she's the first girl that you've been attracted to. If you're physically/sexually attracted to her, then I would just say that you're bi-curious and you're ready to "experiment" with different genders. I really don't know, though. I'm pretty much as straight as they come, so I'm just being pretty general with my answer. I hope somebody else can give you some more help.

i have nooo privacy in my house!!!
if i keep my door closed and even put a "do not disturb, or do not enter" sign on my door.. people will just walk in. they don't even knock or anything!
they just barge in.. and i ALWAYS knock before walking in a room. aghh
i have my friend over now and my dad just walked in when we were dancing around. it just annoys me so much!
how can i get more privacy in my house? (link)
| |
Have you just flat-out asked your family to knock before they enter your room? They might not know it bugs you. But if you've already asked them, and you have a lock on your door just keep your door locked all of the time. They might take the hint? Or put a HUGE "KNOCK BEFORE YOU ENTER" sign on your door. I don't know.

i sweat a lot. even when im not hot. and also i am hot very often, which causes me to sweat even more. my doctor said it just ties in with stress, and with my "sleeping disorder" and is like just all stress and crap. but its not. and they're not doing anything about it because my blood test is fine. i can never wear long sleeves or jackets for a long time unless its really cold. its embarrasing and i dont want to put a jacket over to cover the marks, because then i will just sweat more! i get like hotflashes, like im pregnant or something lol. and i sometimes get so hot that i feel dizzy and like i might faint. any advice on not sweating so much..and maybe any advice on how to keep cool or something? i really appreciate anyones thoughts and ideas!! (link)
| |
I really don't know how to stop the hot flashes and stop from getting hot so often, but if you're worried about the pit-stains you should talk to your doctor about prescription antiperspirants. They tend to be a lot stronger than drugstore ones and will probably stop your armpits from sweating so much.

I have like little black lines on my teeth.. like, its not the front of the teeth, where you can see, but when i open my mouth to say "ahh" like the part where I chew food, like in the backs there are little lines where there are like.. indentations. i've never had a filling, and i brush my teeth atleast once everyday.. and my parents have good teeth too, so i dont know why i have this. whats the cause? how do i fix it before all my teeth have those little black line things? and they seem to be increasing little by little, and becoming a little more intense in the back 2 teeth. OMG! and i havent been to a dentist.. well since i was in 2nd grade and now im 13 in 7th. help help help! (link)
| |
It's wicked important to go to a dentist once every year or at least once every few years. They sound like cavities, and they will soon start to hurt and spread to the rest of your teeth. Go to the dentist.

alright im fifteen yers old and i had over 900 friends on myspace till today when it was hacked. The only one who knew my password was austin my best friend! would he do something like this? He said he would never, and I belive him but I have a doubt too. Idk whoever hacked it only left me with 12 friends im pissed (link)
| |
Believe him. Why would your best friend want to make you upset and delete all of your myspace friends? Chances are someone that's good with computers hacked your myspace and did it. Or you clicked a link or advertisement on myspace that stole your password. That's called phishing. Just change your password and add back people that you knew.

ive had a myspace before, but then my mom somehow found out about it, went through my history and made me delete it, so i did. then a few months later, i got one again. i figured if i deleted my history there would be no way shed find out. until my friend accidentally slipped and i had to delete it again.
my mom doesnt like myspace because of all the stuff that happens on it, like rapists and crap. i told her i could make it private and no one could see it, but she was like no i dont care, i still dont like myspace. basically, shes punishing me for what other people do. ive tried explaining that to her, but she wont listen. any ideas on how to convince her to let me have one?
thanks in advance :] (link)
| |
As Imperialistic said, show her around the site. You've already told her you can make it private, but tell her exactly what that means. Agree to only add people that you know, or people from your school. Show her how everything works, promise to be safe with it and KEEP that promise. Compromise with her and let her check and see who your friends are and what you're doing on there if she insists. If she still says no, I don't know what to tell you. Sorry.

okayy im 13/f and i reallllyyy want to get my belly button pierced but of corse my mom wont let me. so i was wondering is the anyway i could do it on my own? (link)
| |
You COULD do it yourself, but I wouldn't. You're way more likely to get an infection in the piercing if you do it yourself. You have to think about how sterile the needle is, how to clean it, etc, etc. Self-piercing is REALLY risky especially if you have no idea what you're doing.

Currently, I'm 16. When (if I can) I go to prom, I'll be 17.
Let me start off with saying I have VERY strict parents. To give you an idea of how strict my parents are on me, I'll give you a few rules that they have on me:
-I can't spend the night at ANYONE'S (besides family) house. I never have.
-I can't let anyone besides family ride in my car.
-I can't go to any friends' house.
-I can't ride in anyone else's car besides family.
I want to go to prom with my boyfriend this year (it's his senior prom, I'm just a junior). Nothing mischievous is going to happen between us that night. No drinking, drugs, sex, etc.
Regardless, my parents don't seem to be very trusting of he and I. I'm not sure why since we've never done anything to break their trust. NOTHING. I've been dating my boyfriend for over a year, so they've been able to get to know him.
Now you can imagine how strict they are on me. How would I ask them about going to prom? I prefer to approach my mom first and then let her talk to my dad about it. I need to find out if I can very soon so I can start dress shopping. (link)
| |
The only thing that I can tell you is probably something that you've already done. Approach your mom and tell her exactly what you're telling us. Just let her know that prom means a lot to you, and there isn't going to be any sex, drugs, alcohol, or anything like that, it' going to be a dance with your boyfriend and that's it. Prom is something that you're going to want to look back on and reflect on in the future. Tell her. Let her know that it's important to you that she trusts you and your boyfriend and just ask her to listen to everything that you have to say before she answers. Good luck, I hope your parents let you go. :/

here lately i have gotten into cutting myself. bad. i mean i dont go deep or anything. i just pretty much break the skin. but its gotten bad. like its all i think about. i started saturday and i was like i wont do it anymore. well i did it again last night and then 3 times today. how can i stop? ive told 2 of my friends and they tell me i need to stop, which i know. but its hard. help me? please dont tell me to get counseling, cuz i cant tell my dad and i cant go. (link)
| |
i've been cutting myself for years, and eventually i just buried the hatchet... literally. i closed my eyes, and threw the razor blade into this really crowded area in my room. it has all of my books, blahblah, whatever. i threw it so i couldn't find it if i ever wanted to cut again. eventually i got cutting withdrawls which is really... weird? and it was all i would ever think about when i got angry upset. and then i'd get angry that i couldn't find the blade. but if you sit things out for long enough, it goes away. and eventually you have to focus on other things. i don't know. i'm still struggling with it. and i still do it occasionally, but it's gotten better.

Ok, first I'm 16/f and a junior in high schoo. And I'm smart, I'm in honors and AP classes. But for some reason I can't seem to talk during discussions and stuff. Like I'm too scared to raise my hand because I'm afraid I'll give the wrong answer and feel like an idiot or something. Even though I'm telling myself I have the right answer I don't try. I feel like I can't talk about something as well as the others in my classes. And I'm really quiet if I do answer, like I don't want anyone to hear me. My English teacher even told me I have good ideas and that I should speak up more, but I can't sem to be able to do that. So anyone have an idea about what's wrong with me? Thanks! (link)
| |
I'm the same way, because I'm way too concerned about what other people think of me. Just TRY speaking up more. I know it's easier said than done, I'm speaking from experience, but if you have a wrong answer, it's not a big deal. You can just blow it off, and say it was a silly mistake (which it will be). Nobody is ALWAYS correct. Chances are you'll feel sillier if you have a right answer and don't speak up than if you have a wrong one, and you do.
|
I know that this a hackneyed question and it's hard to answer since you as the answerer are not the guy. But really, he's complicated like all the others
So this guy named Tim is in 10th grade and I'm in 9th. I sorta knew him last year but there wasn't much talking going on between us.
This year, he's in both my lunches and I see him at football games sometimes (he's in marching band) and I just see him at random times I guess.
He's always use names like sweety, darling, dearest, beautiful, and such when he's talking to me online. He's really nice and he says I'm beautiful several times. Sometimes he looks at me at lunch and i know this for a fact because everytime he looks at me, I look back and he looks away all of the sudden. And he lets me drink his soda or something when he never lets anyone touch his soda. lol
But the thing is -- I don't know if he likes me or if he's just normaly weird like that. He always hugs everyone..but girls. So he hugs any guys but not girls...and I asked if he was gay several times and he said no. Haha. Anywhos so he hugs guys only, he's never hugged me. He always says how is your beautiful amazing sister doing (my sisters a sophomore at college and he admires her musical talent)
But then again he stays up until like 3am just to talk to me and whne I have to go he says "sweet dreams" and he has never signed off before I have. He always waits until I say I have to go and then he signs off as if the only reason he was online was to talk to me when he was so tired.
I don't know,..he confuses me. Any thoughts on this?
(link)
| |
Personally, I think it's kind of strange that he hugs guys and not girls, and he isn't gay? Haha. I don't know, maybe that's just me. Maybe he hasn't come out of the closet yet. I'm guessing that he does have some sort of interest in you considering he stays up so late to talk to you, and he never signs off before you do. It's hard to ask him about it if he's a friend though, because you don't want to make your friendship awkward. Geez, I don't know. Guys are always confusing. Sorry I can't help more. ):

There is a guy in my grade who 'is like in love with me' according to his friends. However, we have never talked or been introduced and do not have any classes together. The only time I see him is when we are in the halls. I was wondering, how can I get him to talk to me?
I would really like to meet him and I know he likes me.
I have previously asked this question but it was too long. Sorry for the repeat.
Thanks so much (link)
| |
If you see him in the halls just try waving or just a simple "hello". If his friends say he's "in love" with you, I'm sure just a smile and a wave would make his day. If you guys have mutual friends, ask them if he wants to hang out with you all sometime. Since he has a crush on you, I'm sure he'll be up for hanging out.

Hey. I was wondering how to change my username on myspace because they gave me this number which I don't really like at all. haha, thanks (link)
| |
if you just signed up, and you haven't already made your own username, just log in and look right above the box that says, "inbox, friend requests, etc" and there should be a thing that says, "create your own myspace url!" or something. just click that and follow the instructions.

Does anyone know where to buy a hot dog costume for a daschund? Also, is it silly to put it on a dog that isn't even hot dog-colored? (link)
|
oh, that is very cute.
i'm sure more pet stores would have them, and iparty. just google it, and try to find something around your area.

Ive been raped before and everytime im with a guy i get flashbacks. its been about 10 years since this has happened but im still scared its gonna happen again. how can i get over the feeling? (link)
| |
i definitely agree with what the columnists before me have said. maybe you should consider seeing a therapist. rape is a serious, and very scary issue, and somebody might be able to help you get over the fear of it happening again.
