this question is probably going to make me seem conceited but... everyone goes on & on about how pretty i am. i'm just so gorgeous. blah blah blah. i have NO confidence what-so-ever. in my mind i'm totally ugly. there are so many things i'd like to change about myself. it's insane. does anyone know of a ways to boost my self-esteem. i'm shy, i'm anxious, i'm nervouse, & i'm intimidated by EVERYONE. yeah...my personality sucks. when someone tries talking to me i get nervous & sound either completely stupid or rude. can anyone help? :[ (link)
I know exactly how you feel. People always told me how pretty I was and how beautiful I was but I could never see it. I thought I was ugly and not good enough for anybody including my family, my friends, and my boyfriend. It got so bad that I became anorexic and that caused even more problems. Eventually, I was sent to a therapist and you know what she told me to do? Write down things on a piece of paper that you like about yourself. Anything at all for example: I'm smart, I'm athletic, I'm a good friend or anything like that. Any physical features you like about yourself or your personality. Then stand in front of your mirror and read those things out loud to yourself. Eventually after doing this enough, I stopped worrying what people thought about me and I actually started to see the beautiful side of myself. It sounds stupid but it really helps. I hope I helped and if I didn't then I'm sorry. Message me if you need anything else and I'll be happy to answer it.



13/f ok so this year i really want a boyfriend. i had one before but they weren't like real ones. i have a bunch of guy friends and all but how i do i get them to really notice me and possibly ask me out. thanks in advanced (link)
The best way to do this is just to be yourself. Guys like girls who are real and I know how you feel. I have more guyfriends than girlfriends and I'm constantly surrounded by them so I know a little bit of how they think. Just stay friends with them and let things continue as they are. As you get older, some of the guys might start to like you and since your good friends with them it probably won't be so difficult for them to ask you out. I felt the same way when I was 13 but I never realized that I was just young and not really ready for dating at that time. So don't rush things and if one of them does decide that they like you and ask you out then congrats but don't worry about getting a boyfriend, as you get older there will be plenty of guys that you will date and learn your mistakes from. Hope I helped and if not then I'm sorry. Good luck and message me if you need anything else.



This guy i really like will be going to the same school as me for the first time ever! We are kinda friends, but i want to be more than friends, i have liked him for over a year and a half and liking him has prevented me from starting new relationships. By now i feel like i have to do something or just like him forever and never do anything (not what i want to do!). Do you have any ideas of what i should do? (link)
This is simple to answer although sometimes it's easier to say than to do. You have to tell this guy how you feel. Even if he didn't like you the way you like him, it's better to find out than never do anything at all and always wonder if he liked your or not. He probably likes you too but he just won't say anything to you about it either. Oddly, a lot of guys prefer the girl to make the first move so just tell him how you feel and hope for the best. I hope I helped and if I didn't then I'm sorry. Good luck and message me if you need anything else.



ok so her it is.
i have this boyfriend and we have been going out for almost 10 months.
i just recently moved to hawaii.
i dont know if he wants to stay in a long distance relationship, and when i ask him he says yes, but i dont know if he is telling the truth because he always sounds kindof shakey or something.
I'm not sure how i can ask him to not make him feel nervous or something.
What should i like ask him? (link)
Well, there really isn't a specific way to ask him. The main thing in a relationship is honesty and you should be able to talk about anything together without it being a problem. Tell him how you feel about it and how you think he feels sometimes. If he still says that he wants to be in a long distance relationship then he is telling you the truth. I hope I helped and if not than I'm sorry. Message me if you need anything.



So I'm pretty much hopeless. I'm 16 years old and I just got out of a relationship that was about 4 years on and off. Before school ended me and my boyfriend Jason were on a break. When summer started we decided to go out. We went out for about like a month and a half and he broke up with me and said we needed time still since we were still arguing. Well his mom told me to play hard to get and not give in so easily. I went over his house and he started crying (which isn't like him, he hasn't cried since his grandmother passed a couple years before) He told me he realized he loved me and he wanted to be with me. I said yes after giving him a guilt trip. About 3 weeks in the relationship he started acting weird and then he said he just wanted to be single. Well he started talking to his neighbor and I guess he liked her. Well it was the second day of school and he heard I was talking shit about him and the girl Katie. I honest to God didn't say anything bad. If I love him why would I. He got really mad and told me I ruined our friendship. I don't understand why he is choosing Katie over me. I thought we had more than that. People just keep telling me to try to act like he doesn't get to me and that he will realize what he is missing.. I just don't know how to. I don't know if that is going to work. I just really wish I knew how to get him back. Please help me! I don't know what to do!! (link)
I'm not trying to be mean and this honestly might not help but I'll give it a shot. I can tell you love this guy and I know you really want him back but sometimes you just have to let people go and move on. Trust me, I know how you feel in a way. I started dating my best friend when I was 13 and I dated him for 3 years until about two weeks ago when we broke up. I know how hard it is but I know I have to let him go just like you need to let this guy go. If you guys are meant to be back together then maybe later down the road you will but just give it a break for now. As for the shit you said you didn't say, this guy should know that you wouldn't say something like that if you guys have known eachother for so long. Just tell him how you really feel about the whole situation and tell him that if he really knew you and trusted you he would know that you wouldn't say something like that. I really hope I helped and if I didn't I'm terribly sorry. Message me if you still need some help
