I have vintage Apple stickers that have the rainbow colors. I've tried putting one on my car, but it faded. Does anybody have any advice to keep it from fading on my car? Thanks!!

There's a guy I've liked for a really long time. Like for almost 10 years. He's really quiet and is always doing his own thing. While I'm not as quiet as he, I have my moments, and I too often enjoy doing my own thing. He is really involved with his church; I haven't gone to church regularly for a while now, but seeing his passion for it makes me want to attend again. He is often either at work, spending time with his family, or doing church related activities. He leads a youth group at his church. I love that he's a family person, because I very much one myself. I don't really know too much about him, but from what I do know, I have come to admire him.

He is usually the first one to say hey and ask how I am when we see each other, which isn't a lot. I know him through my brother, who was just recently married. We were both participants. I asked him to dance and he shyly hesitated then said no; after I tried to be cute and coax him he told me he's not a very good dancer. Strange because I know I saw him dance once with a girl he seemed to be friends with, and another time with the groomsmen. He's incredibly shy and didn't look terribly comfortable either time, in fact he looked awkward. He is also a bit of a loner/ recluse. He spends most of his time with his family, at home, or at work. Or he does things for entertainment by himself, I've heard. It's a known fact among his friends that he isn't looking for a relationship right now. Although I do like him, I'd rather have him as my friend than not at all. He's a really good guy.

Here's the thing though. He doesn't answer his phone, texts, or emails that often or for very many people, either. I'd really like to be his friend, but I feel like the only way to get his attention would be to go over to his house and knock on the door. My brother lives with him, but I really don't want to creep him out since he's always been kinda shy. How do I get through to him? Should I just give up? It would kill me to, but I don't know what other options I have left. Any suggestions are welcome. I'm willing to try just about anything! Thanks so much for reading my question!

I need to know the genres for classical music, please. Music from, like, the 1600's or 1700's. I know I don't have them perfectly correct but I was just trying to make sure you know I don't mean classical as in contemporary music. Thanks.

I have been casual (very) acquaintances with a guy for a fairly long time now. Over 5 years, but I don't see him very much really. We are still getting past the, "Hi, how are you phase?" where you make small talk a lot. I always make sure to say hi, using his name, when I see him. I have had a long standing crush on him (it's pretty dire) since the moment I saw him and then I started to learn a little bit what his personality is like, through people I know that kinda know him too. I also glean information a bunch through observing him.

Here's the thing: I am madly in love with the guy! He is the shy quiet type. We have hung out once alone and another time with friends. He seems to be the sort who likes to work a whole lot and then spend a bunch of the rest of his time with his family. So he doesn't often have a lot of free time on his hands. He seems interested enough in being my friend, but I think he's also a bit worried about hurting my feelings or leading me on since he's also been talking to "somebody else" other than me. He was ignoring my texts for a short while but I talked to him and that's been absolved now with good communication. I just told him I missed talking to him because I think he's cool and is somebody I really admire. I admitted that I had wanted to be his friend for several years but was shy and never knew how to. He apologized sincerely and evertything is ok now.

So what are some ways I can flirt with him subtly, and get to know him better? He's proving to be a fairly tough nut to crack, if you know what I mean. The foundation is there, and our potential seems great, but I think he just needs an extra shove to get him into full-blown friend mode with me. I'm patient and I'll do whatever it takes! I want him for my friend pretty bad! How can I get him to text me? He doesn't text anybody I know on a regular basis.

There's a guy I have a mad crush on (and I have sustained this crush for over 10 years...so it won't go away and don't say to get over him because it will go unheeded). He was ignoring my texts, however I texted him asking him why he was doing that to me and told him that I admire him and really want to get to know him...that I had wanted to get to know him for a long time but was too shy and didn't know how. So he texted back apologizing and said he's been talking to someone and didn't want to hurt my feelings or lead me on. So I am assuming this "someone" is a girl. I told him he wasn't hurting my feelings and that he's the sort of person I could see myself becoming really good friends with (and that I really need some close friends). Anyhow, should we become closer (cause I haven't known him that long. Well, I have for many years but we only ever said hi and how are you) how can I subtly let him know how I feel?

I figure that the best way to express what I need to say is to just share a journal entry. I need some advice. So here goes...

Dear journal,

There is a guy my brother has been friends with since jr. high. I've liked him since the minute I first saw him. That was at least 11 years ago and I continue to like him to this day, intensity unwavering. His name is Brian. We've hung out, both with my brother, and by ourselves once. The first time we went to dinner and a movie (He was a gentleman. Very courteous. But I didn't know that my brother had asked him to go with me...) The other time was as his house with some people both of us know (my brother included).

I left him a note on his dresser, in his room, and I'm worried it scared him off.

(it was just saying, "Brian, I enjoyed seeing you and your smile. You play ping pong like a pro! We should get together and play Dr. Mario sometime soon! [I noticed he has it. He checked to see if it worked and had to look in a box for his other controller, which he'd lost. Idk why he went to the trouble] WAS IT OK TO LEAVE THAT NOTE?)

I have bad luck with guys. The last thing I want to do is scare Brian away. He's my dream guy; there's no doubting it! I love him!! I feel it deep inside my soul. I smile with I think of him or his voice, I miss him 10 minutes after we just said goodbye...I miss him just looking at him because I know we will eventually have to go our own ways. I want to marry him. I really do.

But I don't know him very well. We text but it takes him a long time to respond usually. After that note I left he hasn't responded back yet (and that was maybe a month ago...though it has taken him this long to get back to me before).

I texted him asking why he hasn't responded to me lately. I told him I want to get to know him and have wanted to for a long time. I just didn't know how. I said I was sorry but that I had to say that. I apologized the next day, saying that I just miss talking to him because he's cool and he's someone I really admire. I told him I should have just said that. I also jokingly asked, "How's that for making a dork of myself?" lol

(WAS THAT A DUMB MOVE?)

I want to get to know Brian better but he is shy and is almost working or spending time with his family. I love that he's a family guy, a strong christian, he's compassionate and caring, he's committed and responsible. He inspires me to be better. He makes me want to be so much more than what I've made of myself. No one has ever made me want to strive to better myself. He's a beautiful soul; such a dream! I could be happy and in love with this guy for the rest of my life! I can see us having children and him being a wonderful father as well as husband. At my age, of 23, I've always been uncomfortable marriage and that type of life with any guy. Not with Brian though. I want to grow old with him. Something inside me aches when I don't get to talk to him, or at least hear what's been going on with him from my brother.

My brother doesn't like to talk to me about him though. I guess he finds it awkward.

I know that, at least at one point, he was interested in me. Maybe not as a potential gf, but like as a friend. I always say hi (and use his name) when I see him and ask him what's up. He reciprocated once (he was heading to my brother's room [mine is next to his] and he saw me in my room and stopped to chat for a minute or two.) He also seemed to really enjoy going to dinner and a movie with me. He hugged me and told me he did, and he was smiling! He's always been friendly to me, albeit he is quiet.

Sorry that was so long! I'd be very greatful if anybody could offer me some well thought advice! Thanks!

My brother doesn't like to talk about my feelings for him. It's awkward for him.

He does seem interested in at least being my friend. It would make me more than happy if I could achieve even that with him.

30 minutes ago - 4 days left to answer.

Can anyone tell me what their names are? I think they sometimes go by Hugs and Kisses, however I know they each had one other name too. I think the white and red one was Rainbow Heart...but I'm not sure. Is anybody knowledgeable about the mail order ponies?

I went out with a shy guy once to a movie and dinner. He'd asked me just to the movie but afterward he was hungry so he asked me if I wanted to go eat dinner somewhere. He let me pick the movie(it was one he didn't know the synopsis to. We both thought it'd be scary but it wasn't) and the restuarant. And, yes, he paid for both. He made great conversation (asked questions a bunch and made small talk). He seemed a little nervous too during dinner. Afterward he hugged me and said he had a good time. I was surprised. : ) I invited him in and he said he could come in for a little bit.

Before the date he came inside and we played wii for a bit. He brought over some pictures and notes from a class he'd taken when he was in school (I was thinking about taking the same class).

One other thing. When I asked him if that was a date, he texted back (it took him a little longer to respond than it had been) he replied, "I don't know. What do you think?" I asked him this already (it was quite a while ago now). Should I say something like, "Hey, remember my goofy question...I hope it was a date."?

I don't want any answers along the lines of, "if he pays it is a date" so please don't put that. It will be ignored.

He is shy and works a lot. He's hard to contact too, but it's not impossible. I don't know him very well. He is my brother's friend and he's known him since junior high (I'm only a little younger than they are). I've seen him around with my brother and always say hey (insert his name) and he'll say hey and ask how it's going.

This is the sort of guy I could see myself marrying. He isn't interested in sex until he's married and shares several things in common with me, religious and otherwise.

What sort of a text can I send that will get his attention (no inappropriate answers please). He can take a month to get back to people. Someone please help me with what to say! I'm beyond crazy about this guy!

Jonas Brothers or Hannah Montana?

Personally, I despise both.

I was hanging out with my brother, one of his friends, and two mutual friends of ours. One of them we've known for a long time (he and my brother are closer than he and I are. I started getting to know him personally only maybe a month ago). He's a shy guy. Anyway, we were all at his house hanging out and I decided to leave him a note on the dresser in his room. It said, "Brian, I really enjoyed hanging out with you and seeing your smile! You play ping pong like a pro. We should get together and play Dr. Mario together soon." (he has it and I'd asked to play him but he couldn't find his other control). I signed it with my initials. I'm so worried that it may have scared him. He still talks to me though and nothing seems to have changed. Was leaving a note on his dresser an ok move?

I really have it bad for this guy who has been friends wih my brother a long time. I have known him just as long, but not as well. We have been getting to know each other better. We hung out once recently, by ourselves. He opened doors, payed for dinner and our movie, and was just generally very polite (he let me pick the movie and dinner too!) . He made efforts to make conversation and was not quite as quiet as he usually is when I see him.

That was in the recent past. Fast forward a few months:

My bro and some buds (including him) and I are all going to a movie. He invited everyone over to his house afterward to play pool and ping pong. I was the only girl there. I was a bundle of nerves and fidgety but tried to play. He played me ping pong some...he didn't appear to mind that I was making a fool of myself and laughing about it. LOL All the guys played doubles on ping pong and he looked me right in the eyes once, for a second, and smiled...he proceeded to glance away afterward, looking the slightest bit flustered. He was quiet around me, but not around them. I asked for some water (or where it was...something) and he went and got it for me. When one of the guys asked he just told him where it was. LOL I noticed he had Dr. Mario and asked him to play and he went right over, with no hesitation, and grabbed it and said he'd need to see if it worked. He went and looked for his lost controller too...for a minute anyway. He said he was sorry he couldn't find it. Another thing was I noticed him showing off a bit during ping pong and pool (my bro said he did this all the time) but I'm just wondering if my being there had much to do with it or not. He sort of ignored me, however if I was watching him he'd sometimes throw a real fast look in my general direction. We both just kinda tried to say something and failed when it came time to leave. HELP!!!! I've liked him for YEARS and I tried to take note of things he's into and comment on them. What else can I do to get him to be mine? I really like him!

I have hibiscus seeds that have been in the freezer for quite some time. If I soak them in hot water for an hour prior to sowing them will their seed coats still need to be nicked? The point of soaking them is to soften their seedcoats. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!

I do not know how it happened but somehow I must have accidentally changed the language on Google. Japanese characters are showing up and I need English because I can not read that. Can someone, please, tell me how to change this? I'd appreciate it!

They toys were these plastic cats, from the 80's or early 90's, who had long hair you could braid. Also if you applied warm or cold water to their nails you could "paint" them or remove the paint. There was a white cat with a blue ice cream cone for her symbol and a pink cat with a blue paw print for her symbol..there were others too.

Also another toy I want help on remembering the name to was...there was a pink dog toy I had that was made in the 80's. Maybe she was made by Mattel. Idk. She sat up on her back feet and she had curly pink hair where her ears were. There were blue ribbons in her hair. She had a yellow fan symbol on her hip. She looked similar to My Little Pony but she was NOT part of that series! Can somebody please tell me which series she was a part of? Any help would be greatly appreciated! I am dying to know!

I have a very unusual specimen of a hibiscus that I found in my family's garden. It is two buds that share one set of sepals. They are side by side. I've never seen anything like it and I'm desperately trying to find out where I can send this to have it studied and developed into a new variety of hibiscus. How should I establish ownership of this new plant if it is developed? Should I patent it? Any help would be very appreciated!

SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY!!!

Meredith and Derek is mine. ^_^

If you could be stuck on an island with either all of Hanson's music or all of the Backstreet Boys music, whose would you choose and why? My choice would be Hanson, hands down. Even though I do love BSB too.
