I think I wanna start babysitting. How do I get people to want me to babysit? what should I charge? I dont have a red cross license thing for babysitting either. I dont know what to do. Please help
You should definitely look into taking a class at your local hospital so you can show your clients you are an authorized babysitter!! If you want people to hire you post signs all over the neighborhood with permission of course... ask your family members if they ever need a babysitter than your their girl!! You can charge by the hour or just charge a reasonable amount for your services... such as i charge 20 or 25 dollars for all the work i did!!

I met a guy almost 5 years ago who was everything I could have ever wanted. He was perfect in every way for me...then we lost touch. We were too shy to keep in touch, but for awhile after we left each other...I can't stop thinking about how perfect it was. What do I do now?
what was the reason you lost touch? do you have his phone number? do you know where he lives? Do u know his sn or email? if you do then email him or call me and just say how much you have missed him and how much you would love to get together! But if you have no way to contact him then i suggest you 4get about him and go on with ur life and meet other guys!! if you 2 are meant to be then fate and your love for each other will reunite you in the future!!

I wish someone could explain to me how one summer changed everything a few weeks into school a new person came to my school and none of my friends liked her then it was a chain reaction. First they wouldn't talk to me, then my other friends didn't like me hanging out with different people and making me pick sides. I wish i could just go back to last year where everyone like each other. If anyone could please tell me wut to do so i don't lose all my friends
i suggest that you tell your friends how you feel! maybe they feel they will lose you as a friend if you make a new friend and they probably don't want to involve your new friend in their friendship with you! as for when they weren't talking to you i think it was maybe the fact that they were thinking they were going to be replaced by this "new" friend of yours! again just tell them how you feel and let them know you still wanna be friends but you want to be able to make new friends! and if they can't understand that then their not worth having as friends!!

im starting to fall for this sweet/funny kid in my classes at school, we sit next to each other and he's very nice to me all the time. i really want to get to know him better- but he's really popular... not stuck up popular... but popular as in not the crowd i usually hang out with everyday. i know the people he is usually with at an okay relationship, but other than that our social lives are completely different. im really shy and i cant "hang out" with him or anything because we arent that close yet. he seems like someone i could really trust, but im not sure if it's worth the chance of even bothering. advice?
i say go for it who cares if he's popular it shouldn't matter i say get to know him betta and see what you think before you spill all your secrets out to him because you never know he maybe be very untrusting. Hope it works out!!

whats bipolar mean?
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, energy, and ability to function. Different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through, the symptoms of bipolar disorder are severe. They can result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, and even suicide. But there is good news: bipolar disorder can be treated, and people with this illness can lead full and productive lives.

I have this friend she's a very good friend till know we were hanging out then out. Of nowhere she said that she has problems. Because of that she doesn't get what she wants cause of me and that she hates how I talk to every one I just don't get it what's wrong with her not to be mad i'm just saying she can't go blaming. People for her problems were no longer talking should I be the one to say something first even if I think I had all the right to get mad right I don't know what to do I'm lost
Its sounds like to me that she is very jealous person and that she only has you as a friend. She sounds like she depends on only you which is not very healthy. I have in the past had problems with friends and I've walked away from them and ignored them figuring that they would coming running after me because I thought they would know what they did wrong. In that case I was the one that was wrong...I should have as a friend told them what was going on. Its great that she is expressing to you that she has problems but is she giving you any solutions or have you two talked it out with one another? Has she just been completely unreasonable for being mad at you? Maybe talk to her and as her why she's so mad you should be able to do that if she is your good friend. If these problems keep up though and nothing get fixed...then I would say you should maybe stop being friends. Being friends is just as hard as a relationship you go through your bad and good times but you need to be able to come to some sort of agreement and if you can't then its time to move on and hang out with other people. Hope it works out!

i have always had trouble with self esteem. and i know that i do have pretty qualities but i have trouble embracing them. how can i make myself feel pretty and stop picking away at all my flaws?
Its tough...because I still do that to myself... people have told me that I'm pretty, beautiful, and what have you but for some reason I still pick at myself. I pick at myself more days then others its just a constant battle! No one is perfect and therefore people tend to pick out flaws instead of picking those out though we should try to embrace the good. I look at how lucky I am...and I try to be as kind to others... I try not to care about my looks as much as I can. There is no way for me to tell you how to stop picking at your flaws...but maybe by focusing on the good qualities it may take you away from the "flaws".

Me and my bestfriend get in fights over the most stupid things! At first I think she's joking, but then I can see she's not! I really love her as my friend, but the fights make MY life worse! What should I do?
That sounds like me and my best friend! I tend to joke with her a bit and its hard for her to see if I'm joking or not. Talk to her about it...maybe suggest to her if you're really serious with me can you let me know. If you two are friends you should be able to tell her anything...and she should understand. This question makes me look at myself and I realize I need to change the way I joke towards my friends sometimes. I should be serious when I need to be serious in some situations! Great question!!

i'm a sophomore in college and my roomie is extremely self-conscious about herself. She had an issue in 7th grade with bullying and she hasn't been able to let it escape her. She's afraid to do anything weird in public because she cares what people think of her a ton. She always feels people are talking about her if they're whispering by her or texting. She doesn't think boys will ever like her (she says she's giving up even though boys have liked her here, and she had a boyfriend in high school for almost 2 years). Anything I or our two other friends tell her don't help. She just doesn't believe us. She always says how she needs to step outside her box and stop caring so much, but she can't. I don't know how to help her because nothing I say is helping. HELP! -
Sadly there is nothing you can't really do! No matter what you do or say she will still have the same thoughts as before...in this case she should go talk to a counselor or something at your college. By talking to someone it may help her out and help her to figure out some stratergies she can use to overcome this. I know you want to help her and you're a nice friend for wanting to but you can't. Just support her and if she needs someone to listen be there for her!

well ive been friends with this girl for already a long time! its just that lately i just find her very annoying for no reason! i feel weird around her and i don't talk to her anymore! what should i do??
It just sounds like you need a little time apart from one another which isn't bad or wrong. There are times where I need space from my friends but I tell them that I need space and that I'll talk to them when I feel better. Just tell her the situation... don't tell her she is annoying...tell her you just need some space...because ignoring her is going to make the situation worse!

i love music and i love to sing and want to create my own song.how can i make up lyrics? i never have never know what to write.and how to put it in words because i know you have to put your feelings into word and music but i want to know how.
Well just write it as a poem it doesn't need to rhyme. Write it whatever you want...it helps me a lot when I'm going through hard times or even good. I actually tend to have a lot of lyrics in my head and when I release them on paper it helps me a lot. Try it sometime just take a piece of paper and pen and start writing about an experience you may have had and see what happens!

Lately alot of people have been treating me like dirt, like after I leave some where they go and party it up I don't go because they only invite me if I overhear them talking about it, I also get thrown aside after I do something to help someone in need of it. I'm not the most handsome of guys in high school but when I meet a new cute girl I like I usually introduce her to some friends within days her and someone close are together already. I have lost self will to go on I've tried to stick up for myself grow a back bone but it's all the same, making new honest friends isn't easy in school so I hardly have anyone to talk to. How should I approach my problems?
I know how you feel all to well. You feel like people ignore you and that they don't want to include you in anything. It hurts especially when you put yourself out there...I'm not a very open person I'm VERY shy in person. I finally found a group of people who I can relate to and who care about me as much as I do them! Why not join a club or something and make some new friends that share your common interests? It would be a great way to meet people because they like something you do so it would help in conversations. Maybe go talk to someone like a guidance counselor or maybe an adult you trust! My advice though is don't keep trying to talk to people who treat you like dirt they're not worth it and you can do better!

boyfriend left me for another girl, one month before our one year. i can't eat, i can't sleep. i know in time i'll be better but i sincerely do love him with every ounce in my heart. so my head tells me to fucking never talk to his ass again, but my heart screams his name every time it beats in my chest. I know i'm only 17, before him i had another boyfriend for 3 years. Yes i'm young, but i know that i want a loving boyfriend, because my moms marriage is horrible hes abusive and not the man she married. How do i move on? How do i possibly breathe and not think about him..
It hurts to get your heartbroken I understand but you're young and there are so many guys out there. It hurts when you can't have a guy that you want. I was in love with this kid I dated and he's awesome I love him but he's just not good for me. So I broke up with him...apart of me thinks I made a mistake the other part of me knows that it was the right decision and that I'm going to find a man who cares about me and is going to treat me right. I have never given my hope up on love NEVER. I grieved and some days for me are better than others. I sing, I write, I dance, I walk, or I even play basketball. Motivate yourself get out there and hang out with your friends. Don't sit around and cry...you can cry its just don't sit at home all day long that doesn't help! You're guy is out there...you just have to keep looking!

I'm REALLY weird when you get to know me, but that takes a few weeks...Before you know me too well I'm really shy. I like this guy and I don't know if he thinks I'm super weird and it's a turn off or something. I make really loud noises at lunch with my friends, throw food at each other occasionally, and we LOVE making scenes in the hallway. But nothing too big. :) So how much weird is too weird for a guy? Thanks!!!
I think everyone has a weird side there's no such thing as 'normal' people and there never has been! I was told I was weird because I use to make funny faces and would make people laugh. I guess it depends on the guy but my boyfriend thought I was cute and entertaining. He and I have the same kind of humor anyways. In the end the guy should like you for you! Good luck!

I physically feel an ache in my chest and a burning in the pit of my stomach, accompanied by nausea. I feel jittery (probably from lack of sleep.) I haven't been sleeping well, in fact from friday night to last night Ive only had 2 hours of sleep. I'm having a bit of a nervous breakdown do to, having to explain to a unknown person on the bus about what gender I am and in their words, "why I go to extreme lengths to make it difficult to read." That bothered me the most, then I was called out to be a liar and mentally ill, as well as homosexual. Which are in no way remotely tied to the reasons I dress androgynous. I accept the fact that God made me as the sex he intended to. Is it so wrong to want to view myself as either male or female? I just feel like I'm the child that was caught playing with the wrong gender inrolled toy, and yelled at to reinforce the roles I need to take up on as being born of that gender. Now I don't want to leave my home. I feel like all eyes are on me, and like they all for some reason are either 1 disgusted or 2 disapprove. Please, any "positive" advice welcomed. I feel pretty jaded from everything, and it seems like I just worked up the courage to feel comfortable in my own skin and finally be able to dress how I want, but now in a fracture of a second it just all seized to exist.
Be YOU! I don't understand why society is trying to make us into 'normal' people. No one is normal everyone is different. And you shouldn't be shut down because you are different. For a long time I was silenced and its only recently that I've used my voice. People are afraid of what's different. People are afraid of what they don't know. And it may seem hard right now but the more and more you use your voice and dress the way you want to the more you'll feel more in your own skin. People are so quick to judge and especially when they don't even know you. Don't let them get you down and don't even pay attention to them. I also realized life is too short for the small stuff. Good luck!

My friends talk about me behind my back, and they end up dissing me for this other girl. Ok, so here's the deal: Me and this girl(Lucy) used to be the BESTEST of friends back in elementary school. But, after I met 2 other girls,(Hannah and Mya) she has been trying to separate all of us. Now, Hannah and Mya diss me for Lucy! We ALL have all the same classes together. So, how do I get them to hang out with me again?
Well what's your definition of a friend? A friend is certainly not someone who is going to talk behind your back. Yes you may have some fights here and there but a friend will never hurt you. Oprah has always said 'love never hurts' so if you have some hurting you they don't really care about your feelings. Don't you want to find friends who are good to you and treat you well? What I would do is confront them and ask them what's going on. If they keep 'dissing' you then I would stay away from them and find some new friends. Good luck and I hope it works out for you!

If your gf is away at college and has guys of one her friends sleeping in her room with her and her roommate and she cuddles with him would you look at it as cheating or something to be mad/hurt about? Or if they slept in the same bed? Guys and girls opinions are good
I don't know if you can necessarily call that cheating but yeah I would definitely be mad about that. The ONLY cuddling that should be done is with your significant other no exceptions. And as for sleeping in the same bed that's not right either. When you're in a relationship with someone its about being with that one person.
