Well, there is this guy who is in a grade above me and he flirts a lot with me and I really like him. The thing is that I don't have any classes with him and I only have lunches with him on A days. I see him sometimes after school and at other school activities---

Well, he got tickets to the homecoming and I don't know if he has a date to go with or if he's going by himself. I don't know if he has a gf or not either. I really want to know if he's taken or not because I personally don't have facts that I can use to say "He's not taken"

By the way I don't want to go to homecoming nor can I buy the tickets anymore. So yeah...thought you gusy should know that.

How do I find out if he has a gf and/or a date without anyone suspecting I like him? I don't have friends that are close to Charles other than Daniel but I don't see him at all at school.

mai if you really want to kno go up to him and ask if you are shy then ask someone you trust to ask him

Im 19, and I dont know much about periods. I started having mine when I was about 16, late I guess. And they were regular then, I later at about 17 years of age had an eating disorder that lasted for about until I was 18 1/2. After that my period stopped for a while, like about 6 months it did after i started to lose weight, then all the sudden came once after those 6 months, then about 2 months later it did again, then it stopped for another 4 months then came again,as for this year 2006 i have only had it 3 times.. and the last time i had it was in september 2nd of this year, so i havent seen it since. I am wondering what is wrong with me? I got help for my eating disorder, and I eat better, I know that had something to do with stopping it since I lost weight, but now i eat much better and dont know what could be the problem, last year i had a cyst on my ovary and sometimes still feel a slight pain around there every once in a while, i also am starting to devlop hot flashes and sweat alot...i dont know if its early menopause or what, but id love some advice on what i should do, and i also get regular cramps up and down my leg, muscular cramps, and then sometimes it feel like ill have my period but it never ever comes...

mai its ok that you got it late but i get really bad cramps to just put a warm rag on your stomach but you should go to the docotor dont be shamed
