I'm a senior and my motivation for school is absolutely gone. I want school to end so I can get out, run to never land and not come back for ever and ever. No, but anyway, my grades are dropping...and dropping fast. Specially my English AP grade. At the beginning of the year I had an A and now it's barely a C. Last six weeks I got a F. I need to bring my grade up to a B so I can pass the stupid class and I have 3 weeks to do it. I know I can but there's nothing there. I'm so fed up with school that sometimes I just don't give a shit. Any ideas? (link)

Motivation could really be a problem if you have nothing to look forward in school. My advice, get your grades up quick, even though school's a bitch, when the year is over you'll be so glad that you brought it up. Think about it, you've been going through school your entire life with good grades, dont let them drop now. If you need something to look forward to, look forward to a career. If you don't have a particular career in mind, try looking online for courses that different colleges offer, that might help you get something. Perhaps you want to be a computer game designer, or maybe a stock broker, or even an auto mechanic. Whatever it is in life that you love, go for it. Also think about the consequences of not finishing school off good. You've seen homeless people on the streets, do you really want to be one? Or do you really want to be one of the mindless idiots who at 40 years old still work in some dead-end job (like McDonalds or something) that barely get by on their minimum-wage paycheck? You know what they're always thinking about? They're always thinking about how if they could do it all over again, they would have passed school, gone to college, get a career, and get a real, exciting, happy life. Think about it. I really hope I helped. Good luck in life.

Use the same recipe for the brownies with nuts, but just dont put the nuts in the brownies. That simple.

My Dad's soon to be ex-wife has been harrassing us and stalking the house. Today, she told the police that I have been slandering her name at my high school. I never talk about the woman. Why would I want to talk about someone who is making my life a living hell? When I am at school, it is my relief from all the stress of home and I try to enjoy the time with my boyfriend and my best friends. I have had four of my friends come up to me and tell me that she has come to her house and said a bunch of stuff to her parents about Dad and about me. This is four different people that their parents would rather them have nothing to do with me. Do you have any advice on how I can improve my name, or at least deal with the stress of someone trying to ruin my life? (Although she says that I am ruining hers. Yeah, funny how that works out...)
Thanks!
Stressed... (link)

Legally, you should call the cops and tell her that shes harrasing you. And ask your dad if he can get a restraining order put against her. And if she continues to bother you threaten to sue her for harrasment. This crazy lady has no right to do this to you. Also, if she's saying bad false things about you or your dad, then you can sue her for damages from slander. Funny how you can turn that right around on her, huh? Anyway, the law is on your side, so long as you choose to use it. Wish you luck, and I hope I helped.

Hi, im 13 years old. Well i think im fat, i weigh 90 pounds. All my friends think im like one of the skinniest people in the school, but i dont think that, so i decided to not eat, except for a small dinner because my mom would make me eat dinner. People try to like put food in my mouth for me to eat but i wont let them. In 3 days, i lost already 2 pounds. People think im anorexic. what should i do? (link)

You weigh 90 POUNDS!!! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW THIN YOU MUST BE TO WEIGH THAT MUCH!!! You are technically very much UNDERWEIGHT!! You are just going to make yourself sick by not eating. You shouldn't be concerned about losing any weight at all. Instead concern yourself with being fit, a healthy approach to life. Just exercise and eat healthy foods, but here's the important part: YOU MUST EAT! I might not convince you that you are too underweight, but at least just exercise and eat healthy, not eating just makes you sick.

Whenever I eat something in front of my boyfriend, I get all embaressed. I guess its because Im afraid I'll get food on my lips or face or something like that, so I only take a bite when he's looking away. Its so weird - I dont even notice Im doing it until he says something to me. I feel stupid eating when he's staring right at me tho. Does anyone have any suggrestions for what I can do to fix this ? Thanks a million. (link)

Dont worry about it. You think us guys really care if you get a little food on your lip or something? Believe me, we eat messier than that.

I’m female, 15, and I hate everything about my family, I’ve always been rejected and pushed aside and neglected, my brother is the center of everyone’s life because he is such an asshole, my parents give him whatever he wants because they can’t stand to hear him rage and scream and say everything bad and hateful he could possibly say. I think they give him such free rein because he has turrets or however the hell you spell it and they just blame his bad behavior on it. They have always been too focused on trying to help my lying, trouble making, hates-the-world, asshole of a brother, so I can never feel anything- they can’t deal with me being sick, or sad, or angry, because they can’t help me, they’ve stopped trying because as soon as their attention would switch over my brother would do something and start screaming and saying shit about me, and how much he hated me and my parents and that everyone else does everything wrong, not him. My parents won’t get him help, they now take their anger at him out on me, they yell and scream at me when I tell them what I think of my brother and how I think they’re doing stuff wrong with him and how he needs help, my dad always punishes him at the wrong time when he’s actually calm, he can never say anything right to my brother, and then they ask me to go give him food or ask him stuff and my brother takes shit out on me. I hate everything about my family, I’m tired of being pushed around and neglected, and they’re making me into a person I hate, what can I do that doesn’t involve anything that costs money? because I’m not that rich. Plz help me, I’m honestly ready to kill myself.

You shouldn't kill yourself for several reasons. When you grow up, you will be glad you didn't kill yourself, because you wil be so happy with the fantastic life you are living. Another reason is that think about how much your friends would miss you, how much I would miss you. Ok, I guess you have already tried the obvious way of just straight up talking to your parents, I'm guessing that didn't work. You could try enduring it all, although I highly reccomend NOT doing that, because trying to endure a lot of pain can easily break a person, believe me, I would know. Something that you might consider is going to the guidance counselor, not because of the confidentiality thing, because that's a load of bullcrap; no, you would go to the guidance counselor because they would probably call your parents, which might just wake them up enough to realize there is a problem they are not paying enough attention to. My last piece of advice becuase i think this is already too long is that you gather all of your family members in one room, and explain the situation. This will probably end in screams and tears, however it might be the only way to address the situation. Either way, you must decide what to do, your friends can't decide that for you. What they can do, what I can do is to help you and let you know that we will always be there for you, no matter what. I truly hope I helped.

My boyfriend is amazing. I love him to death. But he is a little immature sometimes when I need him to just be serious. Any way I could tell him in a nice, non-offending way?? (link)
| |
Ok, tell your boyfriend this: "Ok, (his name), i love you, but sometimes you can be just a little childish. Please dont take this the wrong way but i want you to be more serious. Your immaturity is funny sometimes but now it has to stop. Plese, all I'm asking is for you to be not more mature but more of a person that i can talk to and i know wont respond with sarcasm. Please, do it for me?" That should do it, i guess.

my boy friend has been ubducted by the new game halo 2...he is obsessed! how can i get him back??? (link)
| |
Your boyfriend is just playing one of the best games to come out ever, so you should play too. Play co-operatively with him. You will probably surprise him for asking to play but he'll defintely respect you more for that and, what the hell, maybe you'll enjoy it.

I've been asking everyone...what do I do when the guy I've been waiting to ask me out for two months says he's going to but also says he's afraid he'll cheat on me? Should i just forget about him and tell him it sounds like there are better girls than me that he wants? Or should I try to go out with him? (link)
| |
Ok, if he says hes afraid he'll cheat on you, you have a big problem right away. What he said means two things: 1, he probably will cheat on you if you go out with him, and 2: he knows that if he says he will probably cheat on you, then there is less of chance that you will go out with him and he knows that, so he is saying that he really doesn't want to go out with you. Im sorry but tell him its either you or other girls, or else he'll just take advantage of you. Hope i helped.

About a day or two, nothing more than that. However it should take less and if it stays with u for more than a week, tell ur parents and contact ur dentist.

There is this person on here that keeps harassing me beacause of my user name. I've explained to him/her that it's just a username but s/he mail me again to antoganize more. THis is an advice collumn and I'm getting mails in my inbox every day from the same person who never leaves his/her name. I'm getting annoyed, whoever it is they are not asking for advice. What should I do? (link)

Well, one way is to hire a hacker to send them a trojan horse or something of the like (but thats if you really want them to stop and you have exhausted all other methods). Another way is to just block them from you're email.

What do I do when my anger is so built up that I feel I could hurt my friends with the pain of it all? (link)
| |
Well, there are a few ways to solve this. One way is to do what I do and listen to some hard-rock/metal bands (like disturbed, breaking benjamin, slipknot, etc.) and just shout along to the lyrics. It helps. Another way is the old fashioned hit the pillow technique, however it works much better if it has more mass like a sleeping bag. Yeah I know this method seems corny and cliche, but once youve exhausted your energy and anger on this, it works.
