My Mom Won't Let Me Hang Out With Guys
Posted Tuesday December 22 2009, 11:49 am
A guy from my school that I recently started to talk to texted me the other day and asked if we could hang out at the park sometime next week.
I asked my mom if I could, and she said no. Her reasons were fair, legitimate reasons such as: she doesn't know practically anything about him, she's not comfortable with leaving me alone at a park with some guy, etc. I completely understand those reasons, and I tried to argue my point (in a responsible manner), but she still won't let me go. She trusts me, she's just unsure about him.
Now I'm afraid that he won't ever try to hang out with me again or he'll be scared off and we won't get a chance to hang out with each other. I mean, the only way we can get to know each...

Should I invite my family to my sweet 16
Posted Thursday December 17 2009, 12:35 am
Should I invite my family to my sweet 16? Well of course my mom's invited 'cause she planned the whole thing. I have a 7-year old sister and her dad who I really don't like. I have an aunt, her boyfriend and an uncle. Should I have to invite all of them? Its just an ordinary party. Sweet 16s are not really a super big deal where I'm from.:) Thanks. xo

Boy i love...dad?
Posted Tuesday December 15 2009, 5:40 pm
Ok so my dad and the guy ive been dating for almost 2 years dont get along at all whatsoever. And i hate it. He cant come over when my dad is home. When we went to go on a date my dad told me he was going to keep us from hanging out at all to break us apart. My dad has no reason not to like this kid, and my boyfriend has tried to get along with him but my dad wont give him the time of day.
What do i do??? my dad is being a complete baby and anytime i say anything or he sees him he gets in a bad mood and its really annoying. ugh :/ btw 17 m && F
Thanks in advance!

Should I Go?
Posted Tuesday December 15 2009, 12:44 am
Hi,
I am 17f. I have an older bro whos 19, a jerk,an asshole,a verbal abuser,and a player. He got my only friend (who obviously wasn't my friend) to turn against me,decide to backstab and lie to me, so he could date her. He now sucks faces with her in front of me when he comes home on weekends,flirts,and sometimes has sex with her in the basement (eww..). Lets just say I don't have any respect for either of them.. but my mom AND my sister totally love this girl. My mom treats her like the favorite daughter she never had (at first I thought it was my sister who was the favorite since shes the baby but now im not so sure..), listens to her more than she ever does me, invites her over for supper consistantly, and invites her to all o...

computer scan
Posted Sunday December 13 2009, 9:06 pm
16 female
Ok, I'm kind of freaking out right now! My family's computer has an anti-virus program and it does a weekly scan to find any threats. The reason I'm worried is because lately I've been kind of curious and looking at a little bit of porn. If something comes up in the scan about that, I'm really afraid of what my parents will do. I'm straight, but the porn I've been looking at is of girls just out of curiosity. Another reason is that I'm kind of self conscious of how my body has grown, so I wanted to see how other women's bodies looked.
How am I supposed to explain this to them? I don't want to get in trouble if they think it's wrong or something. Is it wrong?

My sister
Posted Wednesday December 9 2009, 10:14 pm
Is it horrible for me to hate my sister?
We have never really gotten along before. I am 21 and she is 19. We have both had very different up bringings. I was raised by my grandparents and she was raised by my mother.
She is a very attention seeking person and will do what others tell her or do or say things to fit in a crowd.. She doesn't work, throws in all her jobs because she doesn't want to work.
She has very minor 'operations' (its just like having a pap smear) and writes it all over face book for everyone to see. She never even finished school.
where as I, I have always worked since I finished year 12. In good jobs to, first in a lawyers office now in a doctors surgery. I hav...

I hvae no close family
Posted Wednesday December 9 2009, 8:36 pm
My dad moved out, dont talk to him much, my mom and him have way too much drama, my sis moved like 45 min away driving. And i only see my aunts cusins on weddings. My mom is dating and im happy for her, but I just feel like I dont have family. Family is suppoosed to be a close bond. Someone you can turn to no matter what. Something more than friends and i dont have that. I want to be close to my sister and im her M.O.H but we dont seem to have much in common. I only see her like once a week for dinner and than she leaves right away. I just feel really allone like I have to build a family from scratch and it is such an awful feeling. Just wondering if anyone has any advice or anything to make me feel better =(

Does this seem fair??
Posted Tuesday December 8 2009, 11:07 am
So I know its a stupid thing to get upset about, but my computer mouse is dodgy and its really hard to press down on the left button - which is the one used the most, the right button doesnt even work. I have this thing with my wrist where the bone bit sticks out and it hurts so much 24/7, so obviously using this computer mouse would just make it so much more worse. I've had to put up with this for months now.
I'm forever asking my mum to buy me a new one but she'd always say "oh next week when I get paid". And it's the same excuse all the time.
So, last night my brother got annoyed at his computer mouse because it's been freezing these past couple of days. So he went into the garden and smashed it up with a basebal...

Either a mix with Portugese, French, English, or German.
All four if possible! Haha I'm curious since people from those countries once (or still? idk) lived there, and I'm Cameroonian. My parents are from the Northwest Region.. anyone have info on the history of people from there, too? Thanks!

Lazy Son

My son is 27, and he graduated about 6 months ago from college, and I can't seem to motivate him to go out on his own; get a job; move out and start his own life! What on earth haven't I tried yet? Any advice would greatly help.
