I have a boyfriend who i really love and i've been going out with him for alloong time. he says he loves me soo much nd thathe wants to spend the rest of his life with me but im only 15 years old nd i dont want to be mean or anything so i tell him that i want to too but i want to get to no other people and things nd i want to no wuts out there. he constantly tells me over and over again that he loves me to an extent where it kind of gets annoying. wen we talk on the fone its usually abotu how much he loves me we like barley hav any regular conversations nymore... sometimes i dont even want to talk to him but i feel bad. i know i love him but when we first started going out i wanted to talk to him all the time and i missed him all the time... now im starting to get tired of him... i feel like i need space but i dont want to hurt his feelings... nd the way he's acting wen he tells me all of these things kind of makes me feel uncomfortable... what should i do?

I know what you mean. Sometimes relationships can be shakey You really don't know how you feel. You THINK or ASSUME things like love. It's ok if you don't love someone. Tell them now before things go on further. But if you really love them show/tell them. If your boyfriend is being mushy gushy then talk to him about it. Maybe your not ready or he's not the one. Follow what your heart says. If you like him but you can see no future with him let him down easy. Don't break him hard. But alwayz talk things out because a good relationship is a 2 way street. You BOTH talkand you BOTH listen...good luck.


I have been seeing a guy for a few weeks, but it's been a bit complicated - a week after we started dating, he found out he had cancer. He's had surgery and is on the road to recovery now, but I am worried that now he will only continue dating me because he feels obliged to as I was there when he needed me, rather than that he has an actual desire to be with me. I really like this guy but how can I figure out what is going on without offending him?? I'd rather have a broken heart sooner than later, so I'm keen to deal with this! (link)
In times like this he needs you more than ever he wouldn't feel like he has to. Don't break up with him justyet if you feel shaky he really needs you. Even if it turns out to be for the wrong reason, you'll just prove that your the bigger person that you were there when he was ill and that you were there when he needed you most and that its was you who helped him to recover.


My friend got this brand new exercise machine (ab lounge?) and said she would be skinny by valentines day! I adore my friend and all, but I want to be skinner than her (selfish, but I want to be better at her in something!) My whole boddy is flab, so what is a way I can get skinny by v-day too? And how can I stick to whatever this is (btw I'm not extremely overweights, twenty pounds max, spread throughout body so its like five extra pounds everywhere). I'd love your help!! Thank you!!! (link)
exercise but make it fun dance jog swim anything eat rite don't snack as much try smoothies if you're determined to get there you will just perservere.

Dear Boy Problems,
They might have there reasons. Maybe they think that in society today you guys will go off doing what you want and things they think that goes on.
Wait it out if you really like him. Tell them how much he really means to you. If they still say no ask them why. Try to see their point of view. Maybe they jsut don't want you dating anyone right now or maybe it's just him. Try to bond with your folks first.


How can you tell if a shy boy likes you? (link)
You don't just go up to someone and asks if they like you. Wait it out. If he does he'll eventually clue you in or hint it to you. Don't wait around for it just live life and whatever happens happens.


My ex and I broke up about 2 weeks ago due to what seemed like a loss of interest on his side... but as time has progressed we both have admitted to each other that mutual feelings still exist. Even so, he is, to be blunt, somewhat emotionally inept and has a hard time letting himself go. He would need to mature more in that area before we could really get into anything serious again.

So, my no win situation is, there are a couple of people who want to date me. I don't want to date other people and lead them on if I'm still into my ex and will probably stay that way, but I also don't want to miss out on everything just because I'm waiting on him. Plus, dating people is a nice way to forget about the situation at hand and have some fun. How do I go about this? (link)
A. Are you through with your boyfriend. Forget about his feelings for a minute think about your do you still love him. Do you still want to be with him this very moment.
B. The other people...do you like any of them.
C. Are YOU yourself ready to move on.
Just some questions to ask yourself befoe you move on.


Today, I was practicing for my audition, and my voice went wacko. I had to strain to sing the higher notes, and usually I can sing high notes very well. It sounded all squeaky and bad. What should I do?! Everyone says "drink tea." What does tea do? Is it just that my voice is tired, or what? I'm a little freaked out right now

Thanks

Tea calms and relaxes you. Maybe you've just been practicing a little too much slow it down a bit down force yourself to go higher than you can. Do some breathing excercises. Maybe your just nervous.


I'm a stay-at-home mom who likes to go to the park with my daughter and baby. I met a man last year who is a great-grandfather who takes his two great-granddaughters to the park every day (well almost). I thought he was really nice and friendly and my daughter likes playing with the girls. I've known him since last year, and we always make pleasant conversation and he offers my daughter and I treats. There is nothing going on between us, I am married and he is just a casual friend. The other day he snapped at me for no reason and I still can't figure it out. What's worse, he did it right in front of one of the kids. My daughter was talking to her friend about another friend from school who called her a "cry-baby" because my daughter said she was going to tell on her about something. I said " Why would she call you that? That means you cry a lot." Sam, (my friend) said "No it doesn't, it means you tattle on people." I said "I never heard it used that way." Anyways, this is a silly conversation, right? He suddenly got really angry and said "I've been around a lot longer than you and have heard what kids say in the schoolyard. You talk a lot, but you don't know shit!" Now, was that necessary, just because we had a difference of opinion about something stupid? I looked at him, totally shocked, and said. "I never said I knew everything." He said "You think you do." I just looked at him again, like I couldn't believe his attitude, and I said "This is a silly thing to get so uptight about." I don't know if he heard me. He just got up and started to play with the kids. He wouldn't talk to me after that, and I didn't talk to him. I know I should've said. "We are both adults. There is no reason for you to be so rude. We both have a right to our opinions, and this is a trivial thing. You are setting a bad example in front of the kids." I know I should've said something like this, but I was so shocked, I couldn't think of anything. I think that maybe he was mad at me about something else, and was just using this stupid disagreement as an excuse to vent. Or just having a bad day. What do you think? I don't want tension between us because my daughter and the girls are really good friends. Any advice? (link)
Well if this continue to happen then try to talk to him about it. But don't ask him straight out about it. He might have had a bad day or someting else could have been bothering him. Don't hold a grudge just forgive and forget life's too short to live it worrying, cheer up! You don't want your kids to start getting into it now do you...so just think of it as nothing.

Is there a website for people in high school to get help with homework? (link)
um...wel depends on what subject but if you have textbooks from glencoe company then they all have study aids online.


Ok people i aint here to be ripped and i aint talking rubbish but im 16 male and started bodybuilding and cycling 3 months ago and do it every day cuz i got told i 'aint buff' and keep being called 'midget' by my peers (only 5'8" you see), but i have noticed im increaasing becoming paranoid and aggressive and feel like making holes in walls defacing people and i get nasty headaches and im always tense. I thought working out and exercising was meant to do the opposite, so is it this or do i have an exceptional case caused by another(serious?) problem. Am i going insane? (link)
Sometimes people get really competative in what they do. And will be annoyed at anything that bothers them or gets in the way. Try to have time to do other things you like and time to relax. You're probably just really stressed over somting else...school? friends? sports? family? Body building is probably just taking your anger out but don't over do it.


my closest guy friend asked me out a few weeks ago and i said no. the reasons i gave him were 1 - we go to different colleges that are 100 miles apart (even though he visits me about every week), and 2 - i plan to leave the u.s. in a couple of years, so i don't want to be involved in anything that might lead to a serious relationship because then it might cause too much pain. but the thing is, even though those reasons are true, i also didn't really want to go out with him because i wasn't sure if i was attracted to him. now i think i'm beginning to have some feelings for him and i don't know what to do. we're both going to be in our hometown over the winter break and we're going to hang out a lot, but i don't know if i should tell him that i want to date him. i don't want to cause him any pain, but i'm fraid that if we went out, it might end up very painfully - either our friendship will be ruined, or it will be very painful to say good-bye when i leave. should i try going out with him or should i keep my feelings to myself? maybe it'll be easier if i try stop hanging out with him as much? (link)
Tell him your reasons if he's a good friend he'll unserstand. Alwayz remain friends and who knows maybe one day you two might be togather but friends are always a good thing. You can't hurt his feelings if you tell him the truth...even if the truth itself hurts, it's better to tell the truth then lie or say something besides the point.


r u a crazy bitch? (link)
yeah...da kraziest bitch u'll eva meet! LMFAO


I'm invited to this Christmas party on the 16th. I'm so excited for it! Here's the thing, it's semi-formal most girls are wearing dresses but they won't look to dressed up. Here's the other thing, it's my first boy-girl party and I want to leave a good impression. I'm somewhat outgoing but I can hold myself in sometimes soon. All of my friends are going and I don't want to be clingy. How can I look great and act awesome so that I get noticed? I want to seem fun but kind and nice at the same time. Also, this girl I really don't like is invitd, she's part of the popular cloud and will most likely be somewhat loud and I don't want to deal with her or be jelious. Can you help me out with my problems? (link)
First of all you're gonna be notice no matter what happens because you're the host. Secondly to have a good party is to have a good time. Music, conversation, food, patry games, gift echanements all that. alk to the girl she can't be that bad if you have something against it's probably because you don't know her that well. Get to know her and if you feel like she's taking over the party then switch into a different social...dancing, new topics for talking...


My mom is in her late 40's. Well anyway. I like the band Green Day. And she doesn't. She's more into the Old Country type of music. I like the color black. My mom won't buy me black and says "It Looks Like Something A Devil Worshiper Would Wear!" and Refuses to buy me Green Day Things like for example I wanted and still want this really pretty Green Day Hoodie. It was black or Gray (Can't Remember) and it just had "Green Day" on the front of it and I asked her if I could get it instead off the OCC Hoodie. And She said No. What is Wrong With her. She got mad at me because We have a new phone number and someone called that she didnt know and I didn't either and automatically assumed it was me! So? (link)
It's not you it's her. Yeah right about when women are 40-50 they go through a midlife crisis and trust me...it's not pretty. They'll go crazy and yell and have the craziest mood swings. TRy to buy your own things, yeah it's kinda hard finding money these days but if you really want it, a few extra hard work wouldn't kill ya. She's probably into the old ways. Most don't wear black and everyone must be happy and listen to classical country music and blah blah balh she just doesn't understand society these days. We don't live in her era anymore. Just give her some time she'll come around...eventually sooner than later.


I have been with my boyfriend for 1 1/2 yrs. We moved in together about 4 months ago. And I asked him before I agreed to move in with him if he thought he loved me enough to ever marry. He said yes. But since we have moved in together I am scared he will never ask me. How do I know if he ever will or not? (link)
If he truely loves you then time will come. HE's probably just waiting for the right time. Look back on you times together...hasn't he shown you that he loved you. Don't doubt...think positive have faith and believe. What's the rush, why are you so anxious...you do love him don't you? Because true love waits for one another.


16/f. Well my boyfriend and I have gone out for about 7 months, and we were good friends before that, and we have a wonderful relationship. We started fooling around about a month ago, but we're not going to have sex, at least not for a long time because we're not ready. I discussed this with him and (separately) with my mom, because I told her I'd always tell her if I was becoming more intimate in a relationship, and she was fine with it. Well, the other night my boyfriend dropped me off at my house and we were both extremely tired and we fell asleep on my bed, we didn't do anything at all. And my parents came home and flipped out, called his parents, now he's not allowed to see me for a very long time, etc...
And my mom says she doesn't trust me and she thinks we've been having sex. She fully knows my views on this and both my boyfriend and I are very ambitious academically and would not do anything that might jeopardize our education or futures. But there is mutual trust and understanding in this relationship, and I thought there was between my mom and I, and I'm very confused. Does anyone have any advice?
Sorry this is so long. Thanks. (link)
It's ok if your not ready, wait, don't rush into things you're not planned for. I like how you say both you and your boyfriend are "ambitious academically and would not do anything that might jeopardize your(s) education or futures." You don't find alot of people that say that anymore and just for that I look up to you. If your parents don't seem to trust you then gain their trust back. Find some way to prove to them that you guys never slept together and you're not gonna for a while. Both you and your boyfriend need to confront both of your parents(his and yours). They probably think you already had sex because in society today that's basically what is on everyone's mind through media and all. Show them you're different and you mean well and respect one another.


Well just about everyone makes fun of me in school becasue i act stupid or i guess i just am how can i get them to stop and accept me for who i am? (link)
You can change a person but you cna change yourself. Try a make over, not like with hair and make up but join clubs, sports try out new things. If you talk alot then minimize it if you're a shy person try tp be more active.


Okay, i'm 13. I like my friends Josh and John.They are both 13 too. John has a girlfriend but Josh doesn't. Sometimes I think Josh likes me because one time when we were on the way home from playing a concert from school it was around 9p.m and I was tired. I sat with Josh and started falling asleep. Josh then started to hold my hand and tell me to lay my head on his shoulder. In school he would give me hugs and sit with me. The only problem is that I don't know if he likes me and I'm the kind of person who is shy to say that kind of stuff to guys. What should I do? Does he like me? (link)
Well, you won't know unless you ask and hey Im a shy person too. Maybe he's just a really good friend. Alot of guy friends are like that, they're like a good/boy/borther type of person. That might just be how he is. Once you get to highschool that's how most people act. We hug erveryone and are friends with like everybody.


My Best friend in the whole entire world might be moving. I mean FAR away. Like I live in Ky and she might be moving back to Michagan. I don't have any other friends. And it really hurts me cause I am afraid that she will move and I will never see her again. The same thing happend with my old friend Allison. She moved and I haven't herd from her in a year. I don't know what I am going to do. I have no friends but her. Please guys help me. Cause I am so hurt... 13/F (link)
Hey don't worry about it you'll alwayz make new friends. It's not your friend's fault she's moving sometimes things just happen. I'm sure you'll find someone new, you met her after your first friend move didn't you? Think of all the fun times you have. Schedule to call every weekend, write letters, IM technolgy makes it so easy to communicate to people weather it's around the corner or across the country.
