  1. The only way to know how old someone is would be to ask. Of course nothing would stop them frm lying about their age. If you feel creepy about it, then I'd go with your gut and stay away.
  2. I honestly don't know. Here in the States that is highly frowned upon and depending on what went on could get you in a heap of trouble. I'd say stay away from anyone under 18. We call them jailbait here. Good luck to you!!
  3. It may take a little time, but once people see the positive changes you've made I'm sure you will be able to mend some fences and start fresh. Good luck to you!!
  4. Oh how fun!!!! Well, I was really nervous the first time I went, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. Just remember they've seen it all MANY MANY times!! It can be a little uncomfortable, but the more you are able to relax the easier it will be. I'm sure your mom has told you everything there is. Your doc will do a breast exam and an internal exam. Make sure he/she warms up the speculum!!! Just take deep breaths before they come in if you are nervous, but you will be fine!!
  5. I'd be mad too and very hurt if I were you! That's an awful lot to ask of someone even under better financial circumstances. Most of us don't have the luxury of being able to drop a couple grand and fly off to Hawaii on the whim of a friend, even if it is for her wedding. I'd say let it be. She sounds like one of those bridezillas!!!
  6. I agree with darkblue. There is no such thing as perfection and I think trying to find it or be it will only bring disappointment. For me, as long as the guy treats me with love & respect, is fun to be around, and keeps himself clean- it's all good!!
  7. You are in a very tough spot!! I would suggest talking with your school counselor for starters. Do you have any friends you can stay with? I'd hate to see you have to wait it out for 2 more years, that's just not right!! I REALLY hope things work out for you!!!
  8. It's not cheesy. He just wants to do something special for her, what's wrong with that????
  9. Wow, that's absurd!!!! You are still a minor and there are laws in place to protect you. That really frustrates me when I hear things like that. The law needs to protect the victim, regardless of size and so forth, not the perp!!!! Have you ever considered becoming emancipated? I would seriously check into that!
  10. Wow, I can't believe she'd have the audacity to keep the ring!! You are definitely in the right leagally and morally. Just make sure you know what you're getting yourself into as far as legal fees. They can add up pretty quickly. Good luck to you!!
  11. Actually, you put that very well easyguy and I do agree with you on the warning. I would also advise that if she does this she take someone with her, not just for support, but a witness if need be.
  12. I definitely agree with quality over quantity. I've been married for a long time and have 2 kids, so I don't get a whole lot of "me" time. When I do, I generally have lunch with a friend or we may go browse the mall since all of us are broke, lol! It's hard sometimes because I'd like to see my friends more often than I am able. We all live such busy lives, especially here in Silicon Valley. Regardless of that, I know that I can count on my friends to be there if I need them and to me that's what's important. Friendships do evolve over time. Sometimes the bonds get stronger and sometimes people drift apart. It's true for any relationship. I just go with the flow. Each person in our lives leaves an imprint on our heart, some temporary and some forever. I know I'm sappy!!
  13. It's very sweet of you to stand by your friend!! I think the best thing she can do is report him to the school authorities. He shouldn't be teaching!! I feel bad for her. No one should have to experience sexual harassment. Also, if the school won't do anything I'd file charges with the police!!
  14. I completely agree with all the other posters. Sleevless shirts should be saved for working out!
  15. I agree with DN. I really hope you are able to get your ring back- good luck to you!!
  16. They are obviously filled with a lot of emotion and evoke much pain and suffering.
  17. I'm so sorry this happened to you!! No one has a right to hit you and you should report him to the authorities and find a safe place to stay!
  18. I really wouldn't worry about who is more attractive. It's kind of a shallow thing. Perhaps she mentioned it because she is insecure. It seems as though you may be also. Just be content with yourself. Beauty is VERY subjective as you've said yourself there are times you find people attractive and others don't. Just concentrate on being a good person, that's what is truly important, or should be anyway.
  19. I'm really sorry for your loss!! Wow, I can't believe your coach is so insensitive!!! The only advice I can offer is to follow your heart! Like mieshagirl said you are going to have to decide which one is more important to you. It's a difficult choice and I wish you the best!
  20. You're very welcome!! Take care and let us know how it turns out!!
  21. Yes, I see that you did those things out of the goodness of your heart and I hope you didn't think that I thought otherwise. It's too bad your mom hasn't let you know how much she appreciates you. Maybe she doesn't know how or doesn't think she has to. O.K., maybe she doesn't "have" to, but it sure is nice ot hear every now and then. I also agree with DN here. Sit down and talk to them. Nothing will get resolved otherwise and you'll end up spending the summer feeling miserable.
  22. You said that you've told him that you don't like him following you, but definitley tell him you have absolutely NO interest in him at all. If you are uncomfortable confronting him alone, take someone with you. If he continues to stalk you, report him!!
  23. Yikes, I don't blame you for not wanting to go into a dangerous neighborhood. I would've stayed home too!! I think sometimes people "expect" their parents or in your case their children to do things for them. That's really unfair. Yes, families should help each other out, which by the way I think it's wonderful how much you have been helping around the house!! I am sorry that you are feeling unappreciated. I would, in a nice way, tell your mom how much that statement hurt your feelings. My folks do that sometimes, mostly my dad, and I'm almost 36, lol!! I've just kind of learned to roll with it over the years. Something that helps me is to give without ANY expectations. That way if I don't get a thank you or the appreciation I think I deserve, it doesn't bother me because I did whatever the chore/favor simply because I WANTED to do it. If they continue to behave that way, you could always stop doing things for them for a while. I think they will notice the difference!
