im 13/f
Well, to make a long story short..
There's this boy I've been crushing on for about a month now. I'm going to spend a week with him at his house for vacation with a whole bunch of people and i just want to know how do i let him know i like him? i really wanna go out with him but the thing is i've never really had a REAL boyfriend. and i haven't hooked up yet & i'm pretty sure he has. and if he asks if i've hu before do i say yes and lie so he'll hook up with me and think i'm experienced? or do i say the truth and say yes and see whatever happens from there? I really need to let him know how i feel but i don't wanna make it obvious, i wanna keep him guessing. he's 15. what are some ways i can play hard to get and flirt with him? PLEASE HELP! xox (link)
First off, i have no clue what hu means AIM ME WHAT IT MEANS: ohflipitsgracie is my SN. or email me: oflipitsgracie@aol.com is my email
Second, never lie, because then he will figure out, people will eventually firgure out that you lied, always. Just be yourself! He will like you if you are youself and dont act weird. Also, if he's 15, sorry to tell you, but he would want to date 15 yr olds. AIM ME OR EMAIL ME ANYTIME WITH WHAT "HU" MEANS PLEASE IM DYING!!!


This is NOT a joke. I seriously think my house is haunted. Tonight I saw something (a black figure out of the corner of my eye) walk past my room. The reason why I dont think it was "just my eyes playing a trick on me" is because I felt a prescence, like there was someone there. When I looked down the hall, there was no one there. I asked my Dad who was watching TV in another room if it was him and he said, "No." And my Mom was sleeping in her room and no one else was home. Please help! This has happened 3 or 4 times and I cant sleep at night! What should I do?? Has this happened to anyone else? How did you feel less scared? :( (link)
This has happened to me thousands of times!! It's hard when nobody believes you! Sometimes peoples minds play tricks on them, but I think that you truly saw it. What you should do is think about this, have you ever heard on the news of anybody being killed by a ghost? Anybody being killed with no marks or internal injuries? Maybe ghosts are nice! Or maybe it was your mind, most of the time when I see things, it is my mind. If you trult believe that there is a ghost talk to your parents, if they truly love you, then they will make you feel better.


i didnt know what to put this under but whatever.

so im a cheerleader and all the cheerleaders are popular. but the thing is none of the popular people like me. i used to hang out with them and be wicked popular but not anymore. i love my friends to death but it seams like all the popular people get the guys . im not trying to sound stuck up or anything like that.

if this helps-- im wicked preppy i shop at abercrombie . im a ton of fun and everyone says im very pretty. (link)
Get over yourself the goal is not to be popular but to be happy. By the way saying that you shop at abercrombie doesnt help people with their advice one bit, ur just trying to show off. Get over urself and get real friends.


I'm a semi-popular cheerleader. I'm in a bunch of classes with some of my fellow cheerleaders who are really popular. I'm pretty good friends with a few, but I barely know the other ones. I really want to get in good with them, because other then them, the rest of the kids are seriously pokemon obsessed ners (no offence) and those just aren't my kind of people. I'm totally myself, but I don't want to look like a wanna bee, any tips? (link)
What is your deal?! The only thing that you care about is being popular??!!! Get over yourself and get real friends not some dumb ass chearleaders...god your messed up.


well my mom and brother are fighting right now. he just graduated so hes 18 & still trying to figure out what hes doing. well they have been fighting/not talking for about a week now. last night he was in a really bad car accident. hes not hurt or anything but the car is totalled. he has no way to get to work or anything. my mom is really pissed and i just want to do something for my brother to help cheer him up & let him know that I'm here for him. I'm only 14 but we're really close. i have no money & he knows im there for him so i wanna do something special. i need some ideas. please help. this is hard on everyone. (link)
You don't need $$ to show some one that you love them. Just tell him that you love him frequently, and hug him whenever you see that he is feeling sad or lonely. If you really want to buy him something, you don't need $200. Earn maybe $10, maybe by babysitting or by finding random $$ under the couch, then go buy him a card at hallmark or something that doesn't cost alot that means alot.


Ok i know pageants are sort of stupid but im doing one with my friend for fun right? well i need a talent to do and well i'm going to sing but i dont have a song to sing.... do u have any ideas?

my bestfriend lets call her kate she's like so kool.but i don't think i trust her because she's starting to talk to my crush alot and flirting with him and not even knowing she's flirting! and i've talked to her about it and she says that she'll try to back off but she hasn't i told her she could talk to him but just not flirt with him and she's done this to me before and i've dealt with it. she's told me she's liked the same guy i like after i tell her i like him!!!!! it kind of gets mad...no it really gets me mad!! and she acts like good bestfriend and all, but in this case i hate her!!!! pease help me out with this problem.... (link)
If you've tried to get to her and tell her that you don't like her flirting with your crush, then it's time for some competition. Put things into action, flirt with him to, talk to him alot, get his aim, and then ask him out. Do whatever it takes to get him, if you really care about and like this guy, you'll get him.


My 11 year old brother confided in me that he likes to look at naked men. ohhh boy--that is just something that I'd rather not know! but he feels comfortable talking to me about it (i don't though..lol) he will not tell my parents. he is DEEPLY religious. and he knows the catholics frown upon gays. but yeah, he tells me that he likes flipping through magazines and ENJOYS looking at naked men...this creeps me out a little. he was freaking out last night asking me what i thought--and i told him that he's not gay (idk if he is though..but i just said that to make him feel better or else he would have a SPAZ if i told him i thought he was. like i said, he is DEEPLY religious.) --and i also told him that maybe he was just curious..idkkk he doesn't know. but i feel VERY uncomfortable talking to him about thsi but there's no one else he can talk to. he asks me stuff about sex too and i don't know how to answer him. can anyone help me? thannnnnnks :) (link)
Tell your brother as camlmy as you can that you don't feel comfy talking about that kind of stuff. If someone told me that they didn't feel comfy talking to me about that kind of stuff, I would understand. If you don't know how to answer him then tell him that you don't know the answer.

Sorry, it's long but please read anyways!

Okay, so in 8th grade, I met some of the best friends I've ever had, and in was in 7th that I met my very bestest friend in the world wide world. Basically, 8th grade was like the year we knew who we were friends with and we loved each other and were crazy and it just felt like one big party. (drama included) Not trying to brag or anything, but I had ALOT of friends. I could go to like 5 different groups of friends and fit in perfectly.

The problem? I'm going into high school next year and everyone has said that you will loose alot of your friends from middle school. This is almost definitely going to happen especialy because we are like all really different. I really want us all to stay friends. It's almost as if I can't imagine life without my friends. I know I'll make new friends and everything but does anybody have any suggestions of how I can stay in touch will them and not loose them completely?

By the way, I am pretty busy after school with cross country and horseback riding and stuff.

Oh and please do not say "if they are your true friends, you wil find a way" because I just want suggestions. Thanks! (link)
Think about this, your friends probably are worrying about the same thing that you are. You may have heard that people loose their old friends as they enter high school, but I know alot of people in high school and they still have the same friends that they had in the 5th grade. If you fit perfectly together and you are all happy you won't break up. If there are problems, and every one is mad at eachother, the group may break up because they want to start off the school year with friends that they are happy with. Also, talk to your friends and tell them that you are worried that you will break up, talking heals everything, well, most of the time.


Is there anything I can do to make my skin paler? I'm already pretty pale but summer has made me a little too tanned and I even use high spf sunscreen. I've been looking for some white powder but I can't find any and the lightest color of like all brands is still too dark. (link)
If the lightest of all foundations is to dark for you, I've got great news. When summer ends, your face will become pale again.


im 13/f and i weigh 135 pounds. am i fat? if it helps, i look like this:
http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j182/Babiixbrunette/024.jpg

i will only rate if you are completely honest.

and be honest because i am trying to lose 10 pounds and i need to know if it's worth it (link)
You are not fat! Your hips are a little bit wide...but if you've begun menstruating that's perfectly normal.


I was thinking about using hydroxycut , my boyfriend who is 17 & never used it told me that it makes you not hungry. & then i told him that it's basically like starving yourself then, and he said no, and then he said something else. I'm only 15 & i'm 5'0, 130 pounds. The problems i have on my body is my stomach , sides, waist, and thighs. I would like to lose weight in those areas before august 13 ... so my questions are...

does it work?
& if so will i get good results by august 13th?
Is it basically like starving yourself?
Can i walk by sweets and not crave them?
& if i get it what food should i eat?

thnx in advance and i'm really sorry it's long.

ANYTHiNG Will help....

DONT EVER USE DIET PILLS!!! They say that they CURB your appetite, they starve you! Diet pills can also hurt your menstruation cycle, (frequently missed periods) and can also seriously injure you. My dad used to be a health lawyer and he worked on cases where diet pills killed people. I'm not trying to scare you, im just saying that diet pills are very dangerous.


ok i live in condos. with only my dad is
overprotective, and i really want to exercise but he wont let me go outside by myself. so i end up not getting exercise. :(
someone tell what to tell my father, or what kind of exercise i can do inside plz
thx (link)
You don't have to be outside to excersize! The next time that you rent a movie, get one of those excersize guides. Also, get one of those yoga balls to excersize on. And of your dad agrees, get a tredmill.


so my friend and me were going to hang out tonight..and we had talked about this lastnight and we were planning on having a sleep over but now her and another friend are doing something n havin a sleepover..but arent including me..what should i do? (link)
Going off with another friend is wrong. Did you set this up, and it was a definatley going to happen, your friends mom had agreed, and everything, or was it just a thought? If it was just a thought, then if her and her other friend had made a definate plan, that's fair. If you had made definate plans with this girl, either she forgot, or just didn't care. You need to tell her that this upset you, and to make sure that she doesn't do it again.


My mother just ordered ProActiv Solution for me and i want to know approximately how long it will take to clear up my minimal acne. I only weant answers from people who have tried it or who have a friend who has tried it. I hear it's fast and works miracles, but school starts in 4 weeks and i need to clear up my acne! (link)
My friend has it, and I am getting it. My friend says that it takes about one to two weeks to clear it up. That's how long it takes for it to clear up HER skin, your skin may have worse or not as bad acne. Also, check the box, or what ever the ProActiv came in for how long it takes. If the box doesn't say call ProActiv, if it doesn't give a number on whatever it came in, call a dermatologist or a doctor.


Who determines what is polite and what isn't? How does everyone begin to acknowledge these "rules"? (link)
Some manners are just common sense,

1. Dont sneeze on some one elses food
2. Cover your mouth when you cough
3. Show somebody that you acknowledge something nice that they did by saying thank you
4. Be polite when asking someone else to do a favor for you by saying please

Other manners are probably made up and passed down to people, then they tell, then this huge chain of telling people these weird manners starts, and people follow them


At my local theater, the next play is going to be The Butler Did It.

I have tried searching everywhere on the Internet, using Google, Dogpile and Yahoo search engines to find something - anything - about this play. I want to audition, but I don't want to waste my time if there are no roles for my age. I'm fifteen, I'm a female.

If anyone knows anything about The Butler Did It, please share. It's very frustrating because I can't find anything at all about it.

Thanks. (link)
I found this sight about that play in five seconds...don't under estimate the power of Google

hokay.
i want to get an agent or do headshots or something to jumpstart my career as an actress and i was wondering if anybody knew somewhere i could do this? thanks! (link)
I have been told I am a great actress ever since I was young, all my teachers have also said so. My nextdoor neighboor (who is also a good actress) went to this acting camp up in NYC called Stagedoor Manor that will get you connections with acting agenicies and movie directors. I am going next summer and when after I go to the camp I am going to try out for some commercials, then some movies. This camp will also give you ways to jumpstart your career if you don't know how. Alot of kids that go there are in broadway plays and you can ask them for connections if you go.


Well, I had a pretty bad cold a couple of days ago, and mum took me to the doctor. He didn't do a very thorough examination, checked my throat and my pulse and then said I had a "thready pulse" (whatever that means) He said it was a virus.
Well, the cold has mostly gone.. but now I have a really nasty cough. Like I'm coughing up phlegm (Gross, I know) and my voice is really hoarse. That's never happened to me before. I'm seriously almost losing it. Also, my throat is sore and I have NO energy. I NEVER EVER take naps, yet I've had 3 in the past few days. And I fell asleep in class.
When I went to the doctors, I didn't have the cough or the sore throat.
I've taken some cough mixture, which hasn't really helped although I've only just taken it today. I have some really important tests for school in a few days and I am so tired I can't even concentrate on work. What could possibly be wrong with me? What can I do about it? I'm thinking of seeing another doctor if it doesn't go away, but since he already told me its just a virus I don't know what to do. Please help. Thanks. (link)
Wow. Same thing is going on with me. Go back to the doctor and tell him that you need a perscription. Perscriptions work like magic.
