well, there is this guy in my school, he left a note in my desk that says 'I love you' on it. I know it was him bacause he was lurking around and in my desk when I wasn't looking. We are both are the shy type, so it would be kind of hard to talk to him, you know. I kinda got his little brother's sn, but it doesn't really work on my messenger. So the big question is, what should I do? I'm kinda waiting for him to make the first move. (link)
ok i may help you if you date someone shy you will not talk and you may not even talk on the phone a lot but thats the way i see it. but first talk to him to see who he truly is. i hoped i helped you out with something instead of nothing but go with what your heart says or mind.


i am in 7th grade and i have a friend who i have known even before skool we were always the best of friends but then she moved to a different skool and well we have hip hop together with some other of myfriends and when i am there she never even says a word to me and it really hurts she has always been a good girl and now she is just so caught up in her looks and she she hangs out wit and boys and all my other friends think this to and i dono if i should be angr wit her and all that ir if i should just forget about it cause when i see her and she doesn't even reallt notices me it jind of hurts my feelings please help (link)
maybe i can help you okay i just recently had afriend who did the same thing to me and now me and her we never talk no more. the point that i am getting to is that a long distance friendship is really hard to keep with and then out of the bloom the person comes back to a whole new person and forgats who the real friend is and i am talking about you and your friend she is not really your friend cuz she would not ignore you and think about her looks so really that friend that you thought was a best friend is really not and forget about her. she going to realize that later she is missing a good friend that knew the real her i hoped i help out


So i'm a 14/f and (i live in a very weathy area,but am not rich)i have a disability called Cerebral Plasy, it effects the way i walk and is VERY noticeable.At school i am not popular ( not that that is very important) and people look down on me because of my disability. What they dont understand is that i am just like them: i am a girl who can talk and be fun and loves music and shopping and girly(ish)thing> what they dont understand is that i am just LIKE THEM. I am not saying i want to be a clone of them or anything, i just wish that they wouldnt judge me for my disability instead of getting to know me because i am JUST LIKE THEM (but not a judgeing bi***).
It is the same way with boys too. The problem is i was trained to be shy because i know they judge me, but i am not shy with friends of family.
What can i do to show them that i am not just some freak. (link)
ok i don't know how you problem works out because i do not have it but people like that you do not need them because then if you call them friends then they are really not your friends but what you need to do is be your self and never change that maybe some guy will be out there for you and the shyness thing that you will get over it and people have to understand that your a human with the same respects that who can talk like us and who breathe the same air as us so don't let no body turn you down and if people think that you are a freak then they are worse as a freak then you are so i hoped i helped you out bye

Like I said before, my girlfriend and I have been together for 3 years now, I love her with all my heart, and I know she loves me, however, I have noticed over the past couple of months that things are slowly changing...example, we have not been intimate for like 2 months, we just dont spend as much time together as we used to. There are a couple of things that she has wanted me to do, and I have failed to. When i spoke to her about "us", it became very clear to me that she loves me deeply, i can see it in her eyes. She doesnt call me like she used to, in fact I dont remember the last time we had a make out session. I need some serious advice on what Im supposed to do, how am i supposed to deal with all of this "rejection"? (link)
ok i think that i could help you but what you need to talk to her about why she does not call or why does she never spend time with you and is something wrong if she loves you deeply and you love her deeply my opinion is to take action i mean is to watch out and if you trust her than you know nothing is wrong everything is alright and if she does not want you anymore than let the past be the past and strat afresh new life with her or without herthat is all i have to say i hoped i helped out with your situation





Well about 3 weeks ago i invited my boyfriend home while my mum was at work. (no need to remind me that im wrong). now i feel so guilty because ive done something like this behind my mum's back(i live alone with my mum). Even if i didnt make out with my boyfriend that night(i havent done it,im still a virgin)...but i've been feeling all those guilts inside me ever since.I cant even tell any of my friends..i'm scared..i've prayed alot for forgiveness from God....But i just dont know what to do anymore with those felling of guilts and ashame. by the way im 16 and can anyone help here? (link)
ok good for beening a virgin but next time when you want to bring your boyfriends over you need to make sure that you are doing the right decision like giving up your virginity or sleep with another men and the one thing you need to know is that you should always ask for forgiveness but on your next relationships you need to slow down a little bit with your boyfriend. i hoped i helped you out and i give you my blessings nicole~


I have bit of problem but then again since I'm asking a question I guess thats obvious.

15/F. (16 in a couple months)

There is this guy Marcus, who likes me and I guess I like him. Lately my feelings for him have diminished but anyways he has a girlfriend now but he still says he loves me and all that. (I don't understand guys who say they love you when they don't even know what it means)
At the beginning of December I had a dream that sort of disturbed me and didn't make sense but its become constant now. I have it almost every night.
basically I'm taking a walk and I run into Marcus making out with a girl and I'm shocked, hurt and angry at the same time but when I turn around someone is right there and puts their arms around me and reasures me everything is alright. I know this person is a guy because of his cologne. he's in this brown/tan trenchcoat and I finish crying he goes out and beats up Marcus. (its a dream. I have to have my revenge) Then comes back and puts his arms around me a takes out to the car so no one can ask questions. When were out there we've been talking for sometime, I think and then this person says he loves me and I realize I love him too. We kiss and I wake up. The most desturbing part of the dream is that its my best friends' little brother. He's two years younger then me, 13. I mean this kid is very nice, and matture for his age but its no reason for me to be dreaming about him in such ways. I keep telling myself I don't like him. That its not right to like him but for some reason I constantly think about him. I'm really disgusted with myself. I don't even care that he's my best friends' little brother so much as the age. I feel stupid.
I've told my friend about my dream and she sees no problem with it. I can't get her to understand that there is something wrong with me.

Now my real question is, How the hell do I get myself to quit dreaming about him? I try listening to music before I go to bed, and think about anything but him yet it still doesn't work.

Any suggestions would be great.

i can't help you with the dream because its not me and because people do not have the same dreams over and over now if you did then you would have to be really obsessed with that person but is da person real? as in like real i mean as a true person that u love. well i hoped that i helped you out the right way if i didnt then try to ask around or get some mental therapy.


how do i get rid of negative and suicidal thoughts?? im always righting depressing poems and wanting to die.. what can i do to stop myself? (link)
there is no sure responce to your question, only you know how you feel, what makes you upset and what makes you happy. Depression doesn't have to make sense in fact it usually doesnt. But whAT I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT THE USUAL 3 MAIN REASONS FOR THESE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS ARE: death, divorse(split-ups), and constant moving. there are other triggers but ask yourself if you have or are still are experiencing one of these factors...then that is when you can begin to find solutions. You need to get to know yourself , spend some time alone, discover who you really are, and learn to love yourself. you might think you know yourself well enough but you obviously dont so make that your main goal and i promise that is the first and most important stepping stone.


i'm sorry if this is kind of long. i've liked this guy since i was five now im turning fifteen in two weeks. we use to go to the same school. but i switched schools for second grade. i went to an all girls school and for sixth grade he went to an all boys school. but most of my guy friends go to all guy schools and the boys from all guy schools are usually the ones that go to all of parties and dances and stuff and the guys that we hang out with after school. so, anyways when i started jr high, in seventh grade, the guy came to all of our dances, so i saw him again at a dance i went to in seventh grade.

in the summer of me going into eighth grade, we started talking. its not like i had never seen a boy in my life just because i go to an all girls school, but he was like the first boy that i started like talking to and stuff. so, he had this best friend. the best friend and i became really close. he would come home from summer school every day and we would talk online and we became the best of friends, until one day he told me that he hated me and he never wanted to speak to me again for the rest of his life and i had no idea why he said that. but now he's talking to me again, but it has never really been the same since he said that to me. why would he have done that to me?

the guy i like was the first boy that ever told me he loved me. it was that summer. but my mom was super overprotective because i guess she was nervous that this was the first boy and i didnt noe what to do so she told me that i had to play hard to get with him. so thats what i did. he would call me every day and we would talk online every night. but i took my mothers advice and then the boy put on his profile: "i don't know who i like" and i've been devastated since the eighth grade. and now he has a girlfriend, and he's bringing her to my quinces cuz they are dj's and they are going to be playing at my quinces!!!

could someone please give me an idea of what to do. please do not say get over him because i really love him and i don't think that i'll ever stop loving him. he is my baby and i'll always love him! but please, what can i do?

(link)
ok i am not going to say to get over him because i went to the same thing too! but what i can say is that he's best friend sounds like he came from a bad day and something that he thought you said made him tipped off and also the boy that you love make him jealous make him want you more than ever let's say more than his gurl we'll what you need his to talk to him more and listen to mom's advice because she is also right too!

nicole


ok there is this kid that i like and i kno him but he dosnt kno me! How can i make him notice me?This is eating me up inside

please help!

Note that i am very shy.

thankyou (link)
what you should do is talk with one of his friends because sooner or later he is going to realize that is a promise but i don't know how love life works out there but here it does work and i know because i did the same with my sister's friend that is now my boyfriend and we have been together for two months already and it has it's ups and downs but it will work out


Okay, my mom has a friend who has a son. They came over one night and this was the first time I have met him before, he kept on staring at me or just looking at me in the eyes a lot. That night he asked his mom for my e-mail adress and I got an e-mail from him saying " you looked amazing the other night and I think ur really cool, I want to get to know you better," or "do you have a boyfriend" or "what are you most like? Calm and collective, or wild and crazy?"
and stuff like that and I just dont know... is he interested in me?? He's a senior in High School and I am a freshman. What should I do?!?! (link)
just talk to him but let him know your strandards put down what you like and don't like just don't ask the boyfriend question and of course he is intrested because then he would not ask for your e-mail address and believe down here in florida most boys do not just ask for e-mail addresses from girl's mothers and i know down here they are afraid and they move fast. i hoped i helped you out


13/m. I have a sister who is 14. Where we live, stuff happens slowly. It's not like in NYC where everyone loses their virginity at, like 13. My sister finally got her first boyfriend. I'm not too worried about that. But, they're taking everything too fast: one week, they're dating. Another week, they're holding hands. This may not seem like much to you, but where I live it is. And now yesterday---they've been together 2 months, tops---they both had their first kiss.

I've been trying to get more info, but she's really private about this. I asked her if it was just a peck or if she made out, and she said that it was about 5 seconds. Is that long for a first kiss? And I asked her when, and she showed me a ring that she got from him. Unfortunately, I suck at taking hints, so I still don't get it.

She doesn't want to tell anyone about anything that happens. My other sister and my parents are still completely unaware that they've done so much as hold hands, and she doubts she'll tell them about kissing any time soon.

So, I was just wondering, is this too fast, am I worrying too much, will she be turning into a sex-obsessed slut any time soon, and how can I get her to communicate more? "Why do you need to know?" she asks. Well, I intend on getting a girlfriend this year, and I'm gonna have to learn somehow, right? No smartass answers. Thanks! =) (link)
ok you are the little bother of course you are going to protect your oldest sister and a 5 second kiss is not making out and just tell your sister that to watch out with him and if she keeps making out then yes she will be a slut to other guys and gurls but she needs to really slow it down what all little brothers normally do is that they spy on their big sister's boyfriends and for two months already and they have done that far believe me she is not no slut i know what i am talking about because that happens to everygurl in my school either there a slut or there a whore.


My little brother is driving me crazy!!! He hits me when he gets mad and leaves bruises! and he wont leave me alone! i have a lock on my door except its a hook lock so he just unlocks it! I would tell my mom but every time i tattle she gets mad at "me"!!! Im 13 and its because h's 10 and her little baby! its driving me crazy and i need help please!!!

I will rate 5 answers (link)
I have the same problem i have three sisters who just is plan annoying and of course they hit me to so i leave you this just bribe them it always works and believe or not he can not be a perfect baby there is always something wrong and they hide hit believe me i know i work at a daycare so try dealing with 50 kids and all of them always telling on some one else and just try to keep the evidence to your self until he hits you again. i hoped i helped out



14/m

(link)
ok i have almost the same problem as you.What you should do is tell him straight out what is going on and don't be afraid of hurting his feelings because he is sooner or later he is going to realize what he lost as a friend or more.

okay, i know this is gonna sound like all those other stupid guy questions, but i have to ask. I like two guys. One is my age, which is 13, and he is tall, cute, and athletic. The other is 16, he's not really that good-looking but i think he's really funny and cool. I'm a little afraid because he might expect me to go further than i feel comfortable. I don't know who to "go after". Could someone help? thanks in advance!
(link)
here is some tips that may help you do you know the guy very well? do you know his family really good? and do you know what you feel for them but the most important question is does he treat you like someone special. here are some tips i hoped i helped you out

nicole~


my bf and me just broke up and its hard for me to cry and crying is the only way i can be okie. Whats a good sad love movie i can dl. thanks and no not the notebook. i saw it and didnt like it. If someone dies in the movie that helps, or if they dont end up story. (link)
ok i have a lot of sad movies
1.stepmom
2.the traveling pants of the sisterhood

i only know those two sad movies and i was wondering if i can help more than sad movies we'll watch a funny movie and eat ice cream or pigout because when i get sad and cry it always help me plus if you see your ex just act like you don't need him and act like everything is alright that is what i did with my ex-boyfriend when we broke up. but think of it as the past not the future i hoped i helped out.


When I first came to my school last year I had a crush on this guy who is three years older than me. He was also giving me nice looks and smiles from across the room, so I thought he liked me too. He then told my brother that he liked me a few months later (after the flirting), but then I was over him and didn't care much anymore. Now, a year later, I have been talking to him on the phone about this girl he's having problems with because she won't go out with him. He seems A LOT more mature when we talk alone then with other people. We talked on the phone for hours the other night, not just about his girl problems but also his family and other serious things. He really makes me laugh and I have a good time with him when we talk. I'm not sure if he's liking me back or anything because he's into a girl that's older then him and who is SOO much prettier than I am. Any advice on what I should do? (link)
ok i had read your question and i think i can help you we'll first of all i think if you keep in touch still over the phone but if you keep going to his house his is going to expect more than making out every time you come to his house if your parent's ask you wats wrong then you need to tell them and they may see the problem but if not tell someone you can trust so much that they won't tell your parent's. now for the girl i think he is trying to make you jealous and i think he still likes you but you have to put some rules down and let him know that your not some gurl that you throw away after being used. Well i hoped that i helped you out.

nicole


alright so me and this guy who we can call Eric have been together for about 2 weeks but we've known each other all our lives. We aren't going out (bf/gf) yet only because we go to dif schools and we can't hang out enough for him to get that right moment. Well, anyways, we talk on the phone a lot and that's pretty much our main communication because we're both so busy. Lately, when I've been calling him he always comes up with some excuse to not talk to me like "I have to drive up to Yarmouth, again." or "i have to go do my brother's laundry" and "I have to go hang out with my cousins". So like I'm fine with him doing other things because I totally don't want him to have to feel like I need to be #1 in his life. He knows this too. But now it's been like a week where we haven't really talked and everytime he comes up with an excuse, he says he'll call me back. Yeah, he never does. My question is, should I call him back or should I just wait until he calls me? Or do you think by not calling him anymore, it's putting our relationship at a risk?? please help I'm so confused. And I rate 5's if it's not crap. Thanks (link)
I kno what you mean you dont want him to suffer like all the times i would suggest that get someone that goes from his school and tell them that to keep a eye on him just to check to see why he makes all those excuses before you call him or just call from a whole different number and act like someone else or get someone to call for you .well i hope that i helped you

nicole~


i am 13/f. Well theres this guys that i love. we are good friends we can tell each other pretty much anything cause we are going through pretty much the same stuff. and well he really likes my twin sister and he dosnt know i like him but my sister is always getting in the way of me ever getting a guy cause once they see my sister they like her and not me cause of her looks and body.
my sister also likes him and she knows how i feel about him and there about to go out with each other. what do i do? (link)
Ikno what you mean because i went though the same thing as you are going thru now so what i would do is get back at her and i think that you should spend as much time with him as possible before he asks your twin sister out and talk to your sister saying you kno i liked him first and you knew that. Well i hoped i helped you out with your situation
nicole or iris


does anybody have any tips for how to be patient with others?! i get so irritated really easily and i tend to take it out on others especially when I'm tired and I just have no energy...x (link)
I have a tip that may help you i am very patient but what i think you should that you wont scream at anyone is to hold your anger in or tell a friend that you are about to yell and she/he that to breathe and relax but at times when people make me mad i want to sream and i also get grumpy so its normal just ignore what they have to say.I hope this helped you out.
