My zen keeps on freezing up after i listen to it or fall asleep listening to it. can someone help me or at least tell me how to prevent this from happening, (or you could tell me how to restart it so that it will unfreez). Please and Thank You!!!

Which one is it? Some of the models have a hardware problem that can't be fixed. I have had two and they both did that and eventually stopped working. Have you emailed the company? They'll probably be more helpful.


This boy that i like ive been liking him for while now and he knows i like him. You see i have this class with him and usually he be talkin to me or be messing around. But now all of a sudden he dont even talk to me or nothing. Like at first i thought maybe something between us was really happening but now its like nothin. what do this mean. (link)
Just ask him why he hasn't talked to you lately.

There could be several reasons why he hasn't.

I've done that to people because I was scared of getting myself into something just to find out the person actually didn't like me. Or the person wanted me to distract them from the one they really wanted.

But I also did this sometimes because of personal problems. Being depressed or something of that sort.



i wake up with scars in my mouth. how do i prevent that? there are braces shaped indents and stuff on the sides of my cheeks! it hurts when my mouth is dry and i wake up and try to open it and my cheeks are stuck to my braces. (link)
That happened to me like all the time when I had braces. Wax didn't work for me and I was told there wasn't really anything else I could do to prevent it. After a couple of months, I got used to it and it stopped hurting.



I have 2 gerbils, and I love them very much. I really want to get more, but my mom and dad won't let me because I sometimes forget to feed them. I notice in a day or 2, and they never eat a lot of food anyway, so there's no harm, but my parents are still set in stone. How can I convince them? (link)
Why do you want more?

Do you have a good answer to that? If you don't, your parents aren't likely to be convinced otherwise. Most would think two is more than enough.

You should start with paying more attention to the ones you have.

I have two critters myself and a reason I got them was because I didn't want someone else to buy them just so they can feed it to one of their other pets.

They were only 3 weeks old and being advertised as food...

How difficult is it to sew your own hoodie? I know exactly what I want but I can't seem to find a place to buy it, so I'd like to sew one. Thanks! (link)
If you don't have any experience with sewing, I recommend practicing on lots of scraps first.

I tried that tutorial a year ago and I have yet to finish it.
I couldn't sew a straight line very well... and my tension was really horrible.



My boyfriend was the best, he was sweet & cute and he loved me soo much he text me everyday call me and we'd talk for HOURS! we never talk on msn because he'd be on the phone with me..But now it's been 3 months and i don't know he started working a few days ago but he's been canceling our dates.. Not talking to me on the phone.. Never texts me back.. all our communication is really msn. i geuss he doesn't have time for me.. the things he did in the beginning were why i loved him soo deeply now he trys to use shortcuts to get out of things.. like excuses and such. since its a long distance relationship its hard for us, but it wasn't before because we had great communication. But now i don't know how can i get him to relize im alive start calling me again and such.. my friends tell me to dump him because he does sometimes treat me bad but i can't i love him too much.. i want him to see how much i want him to care about me.. i could wait for hours for his phone call while he's at a dumb party and didnt invite me (-.-) i really need advice.. and i do things like wait and wait and i text him every morning i use to call but he said not to anymore in the mornings i would be his alarm clock .. and he doesn't see the things i do for him.. WHY CAN'T HE RELIZE HOW MUCH I LOVE HIM! why can't he put any effort into our relationship.. he makes me wait he goes to party's and dinners with friend and doesn't invite me.. should i dump him? (link)
Communication is important.

Let him know how much you liked getting his calls.
Ask him why doesn't he invite you or at least take that time to talk to you.

Just tell him how you feel and how important it is to you.



Okay, So my friend told me she got pregnant but
she's still a virgin.
Can you really get pregnant even though your a
virgin? (link)
It is possible, without penetration. But it's not very likely to happen.


OK...so me and this boy were talking about 7 months but we have only been together for about 2. Anyways it was love at first sight and we're crazy about each other, yesterday he actually got down on one knee and asked me to marry him...i love him and my answer is yes but i think we're too young for that.I'm 17 and hes 19 any advice is helpful. (link)
I think it's okay if you and/or him could support yourselves and get a home and all that good stuff.

But maybe you should stay engaged for a couple of years.


I'm 14 years old and I have facial hair AND IT'S NOTCIBLE I HATE IT!!! Is there anything i can do to get rid of it...please help (link)
I don't really recommend shaving. It usually comes back in a few days.

Try cream. I've used these before and they worked:

Nair
Sally Hansen


okay i dated this guy for 2 years and i was in love with him! he broke up with me at the end of his senior year (i was a sophmore) we would still talk for that month we were broken up but i was devastated. we would still talk since we would see eachother at school a lot and i know he still had feelings and i obviously still loved him but when summer started it was basically the end cause i knew id never see him again unless it was somewhere random or quinceidental. during the summer i really started moving on and i started getting over him i even started to like a boy which was extremely weird cause i never thought that would happen! anyways at the end of the summer as school was coming close he went to college and before he left he actually texted me telling me goodbye. it was the most confusing thing ever cause i didnt understand why would he text me? i ignored it and a couple days later he actually called me. we talked for over an hour and he told me how he really wanted to see me and what not. we kept talking for the next couple weeks and evntualy i went up to see him. obviously it made all my feelings come back. i visited him a couple more times, but every time i did.. it was like sooo much fun but then when i went home if i would call him or text him hed either not respond or just be like hi. ya. things like he didnt really care? i got fed up with this because i felt ilke he didnt actually care so i finaly brought up the whole situation and he didnt act like he cared he was like "ok" things like that so i just felt like i was wasiting my time so i told him i was done with his games. about 3 weeks later i heard he was going to be in town and that weekend he called me.. he wanted to hangout cause he was in town so i went to his house and we watchd a movie until he had to go to his buddys house. it was kind of awkward, but it felt good being there with him. he tried to have sex with me but i wouldnt beacuse i didnt want to get hurt cause when i had went to visit him at college we did and it ended up hurting me more cause we would have sex and he never would ask me back out or anything. i said i didnt want to get used because we probably werent going to get back together and he just laughed and was saying things like "what are you talking about" "who cares" "stop being gay" it was kind of disrespectful?? idk im so confused what do i do i want to be with him but its like i cant tell if he still has feelings for me or if hes just using me or i dont know how to talk to him about it because whenever i try to talk to him about how i feel hes just like "omg stop" ERRRG

sorry if this was really long.. (link)
I think you already know that he's using you.

Stop letting him hurt you. He doesn't respect you. Don't give in to him anymore.

You'll find someone better.


heyy

ive been kinda seeing this lad for a while , and we have had sex and everythin, but hes never kissed me , i try too kiss him but he pushed me away, everytym i see him i wanna ask him y but its embarissing, is a kiss a bit more than sex if ya get me ? does it mean hes not interested or sumthing

thanks (link)
I agree. He seems like he just wants sex. Kissing you would imply he wants something more.

But, do ask him. It might be because of something else.


i just turned 17 years old, im height 5'3 and i weigh 109 pounds. is this a healthy weight? i want to be 105 pounds because i think i have too much stomach fat but some people say that would be too skinny? (link)
Your weight seems fine.
I think 105 would be too skinny.

I know what you mean about the stomach fat thing. I had the same thing.

Crunches and variations of it has helped me a lot.


my name is Rachel and iam 19 years old and I weigh 168 pounds and iam only 5 foot 2 inches tall. I know i need to lose weight becouse iam overweight for my heighth but i just can't stop eating. Whenever I see food I eat just becouse it's there. I've gained 15 pounds since may and it's only november that's only 7 month's and I get really ashamed when people say I eat to much so sometime's i even go to my bedroom to eat when nobody's looking so they don't know that iam eating? It's like I don't have any control of when I eat please help! (link)
So you said you eat because it's there, right? And/or sometimes because you're hungry?

I'm not sure what to tell you that will work. As I am underweight and have a fast metabolism.

I'd say carry healthy snacks around with you. And if you see food that isn't particularly good for you, eat the snack instead.

Maybe some fruit cups, baby carrots, apple slices, soy beans, yogurt, etc..

And fruit smoothies,
you could also try learning how to cook healthy meals.


I'm probably looking into this too much (as usual, lol), but here's the deal:

I sent a guy I know a message on facebook- he just joined the site a couple weeks ago. I haven't talked to him in several months, mainly to ask about applying to schools, etc. I sent him a random message asking him how he is, and if he had any feedback/advice on the application process, etc. I ended asking if it would be possible for him to look over a paper for me, whenever he could.

The thing is, it was sort of a long message, and as I mentioned, I haven't talked to him in a while (HE, being a friend of a friend who I thought could help out). So, he hasn't replied yet, but I'm getting the feeling that he either doesn't want to, or is a little put off by a random, "out of the blue" message/request...or maybe he's just like most guys who don't like long messages.

So is there any reason why you think he wouldn't want to respond, or was there anything wrong with my "facebook/email etiquette?" Or am I worked up over nothing? BTW, if it helps, I'm pretty sure he knows I used to like him in that way...so I hope this isn't another "guy thing."

(link)
I don't think you asked too much. I mean I wouldn't mind if someone I kinda knew sent me something like that.

Does Facebook have those sent folders where you can see if it's been read or not?

I guess it just depends on the person. I notice the same thing with others. But I admit, I do the same.

I either just don't want to reply to the person for whatever reason.

Or I just want to reply to it later but I end up forgetting about it.

If he's been online a few times since then. Maybe send another message. But of a different topic, to see if he's more willing to respond to that one?

I don't really know a lot about Facebook, but if you have any fancy features that do alerts like poking, a game invite, maybe one of those?


Does anyone know what websites I can find a jacket like this:

http://i35.tinypic.com/1dzifd.jpg

As you can see, it buttons up at the side and is long.

Anything similar will do, I'm open to suggestions.
I'm helping someone find one and I'm struggling with what to enter in Google.

THANKS X (link)
How about "double breasted trench coat"?


what should i get my 17 year-old boyfriend? like jewlery wise because i know hes getting me a diamond necklace thanks! (link)
I'd probably go for something titanium. The designs for those are pretty nice.

A chain-like bracelet or necklace. With a pendant of some design he likes (skull, cross, dragon, words, or maybe can find somewhere to do this custom?)

Just search for titanium jewelery on Google.


im at school i have alot of friends i have gotten four prezzys im wondering if im bein horrid to other people im giving them to my closest friends and i wasent goinmg to give anybody else any
am i being horrible do you think my friend will hate me or do you think they will not be bovererd if theres so many of us ?? (link)
Your friend shouldn't hate you because of this.
They'll most likely feel jealous. I'd be happy being given just a candy cane.

If money is a problem. A card, perhaps hand-made, it'll make them think you were really thinking about them.

Or maybe bake some cookies? Get small plushies? Make some jewelry? Make knit a scarf? Give them one of those IOU gift-coupon for like a school lunch, one movie at the theatre, something you think they'd like.



so.. for the past week and a half i haven't been able to sleep. i mean, i've always had trouble with sleeping at night (not being able to fall asleep.. i have adhd) but i've been having really bad dreams. also, i haven't been eating much at all and i've lost about 5 pounds. a lot of people have noticed me being tired at school. and my mom and best friend said that it looks like i've lost weight. could this be from stress? or being worried? (i've been somewhat scared lately because my boyfriend and i have started talking about having sex for the first time)

i'm 16 and am a female. i'm 5'6" and weigh 115, and don't really want to lose much more wight, at all.

thank you! :) (link)
It most likely is from stress.

Don't keep letting it ruin your health.

Try to eat even if you don't feel particularly hungry. Or even if it upsets your stomach.
If you keep eating less, it may eventually get difficult for you keep any food down.

I don't know what can be done about bad dreams, sorry.

But if you're afraid of having sex, I'd tell the boyfriend why.

You think that's all he wants from you?
Afraid of getting pregnant? STD?
You'd rather wait?
You're scared about pain?


And after that, leave the topic to discuss later.


If you've gotten through this issue and still don't eat much and have bad dreams, you should probably go see a counselor and or a doctor.


so I just hurt my knee a few days ago (like a week ago) and i just don't know what's going on with it.
here are some pictures:
the day after i hurt it: http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo178/lizzyliz96/Image299.jpg
today(1 week later):
http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo178/lizzyliz96/Image315.jpg

the day after i hurt it, its just red.
today, its darker and the skin is beginning to peel and its a bit itchy.
i'm not sure what to do right now. when i shower i use a band-aid, should i just wash it without bandaid?(i tried but it hurt a lot)
(link)
I'd say go to a doctor now, just in case. It seems so easy nowadays to get a bacteria infection.


My boyfriend and I are somewhat new to sex. We were fooling around in bed the other night and he was trying to get himself hard, but to both of our disadvantages he couldn't.
He said to me that he sometimes has a problem with this, and it left me sorta wondering if maybe he could have a problem, if I wasn't turning him on enough, or if he just couldn't do it because he maybe was trying a bit to hard.
This may be a bit too TMI, but I even gave him a BJ and he still couldn't get to where he wanted.
I have had sex with him before, but he usually only gets somewhat hard, and then after he reaches that halfway mark he just sort of loses it and we're done.
We do a lot of other "Kinds" of sex, but I want to have that full experiance with my boyfriend! (link)
I'd say nerves can play a great part in it.

But it could also be something very serious. He should probably go see a doctor about it.
