What is the biggest age difference between you and a guy you have liked? What age were you when you started liking him, and how old was he?

I've been wanting to get an industrial in my left ear for several weeks now. Can someone explain the procedure to me? Also, about how much does it cost? Is there anything I can do to lessen the pain of getting it done?

This is my third year in high school theatre. The show we are doing at the moment is the first one we have done with a male director. Before we had a female, and for each show a few of the actors who had been there longer would buy her flowers and present them to her at the show. I am stage manager, so I want to get something for our director, but flowers don't work well for males, haha. Any ideas? Also, would it be better to give it to him on opening night, or the last night of the show?

I need help deciding the meaning of this quote. Or rather, I just need other opinions on what it means and see if they are kind of what I'm getting from here.

"Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise."

This quote is from Woodrow Wilson. Thanks to all who answer!

I am the stage manager at my high school. We have five more rehearsals before we open the show. Last night, I was texting this guy who is in the show. We were talking about something completely different when he brought up how he doesn't like how I correct him when he says the wrong line, when it's basically the same thing(he mizes up his lines quite a bit. Many of the lines in the show are redundant with only a little change) However, I said if he mixes up his lines, it might cause someone else to mess up. I talked to some of the other actors and they said they like for me to tell them any time they mess up their lines. Then he went on to say that I've never been a performer and I don't see their persepective(I have performed before, just not for high school) and he said something about how that makes him allowed to tell me how to be stage manager. He said it's my fault when the director gets mad for them not knowing their lines and that if I don't stop correcting him, he is going to mess his lines up on purpose. He basically said I'm not a good stage manager.

I feel this is blatant disrespect. He has been the only one I have had a major problem with. He has given me trouble since I became stage manager, just generally being disrespectful and such, but he has never said things such as this. What should I do? Should I go to the director about this, or just leave it and deal with it myself since we only have five more rehearsals before we open the show?

Everything is perfect, or so it does seem.

But when did the nightmares overtake the dreams?

They see them from the outside, never from within.

They don't see the murderers, the traitors and the sin.

Society tends to accept what society wants to see.

Never do they hear a person's silent screams.

Never do they listen as a world falls apart.

Never do they care about a broken heart.

What happens when words always turn into a scream?

When nothings ever quiet, everythings extreme.

When silence overtakes and everything falls to shame.

They say it is their fault, but is it right to blame?

Is it right to say I love you, when hatred screams the truth?

Is it correct to say it'll be ok, when there isn't any proof?

Is it ok to stand in darkness, instead of seek the light?

The darkness spreads even further, when the words turn into fights.

Days turn into months and months turn into years.

The silence slowly spreads and takes away the fears.

Nightmares give way to the long missed dreams.

Everything is perfect, or so it does seem.

I have really crazy episodes of happiness and sadness. Take the past half week for example. Thursday I was super happy, really energetic, talking a lot and such. I felt great, like I owned the whole world. Then this weekend was bad. Nothing bad happened. I just felt really down, not wanting to do anything. I laid in bed all day saturday and sunday. Then today I was fine, then I got down again but not as bad as over the weekend. This has been going on for two-three years now, that I remember. Usually over longer periods of time. I'll also go from not needing much sleep at all to wanting to sleep all the time, eating a lot to not feeling like eating at all, wanting to be around people to wanting to be alone, etc. Sometimes I get the feeling that I can do anything, like nothing can stop me. At times I'll be looking out the window and wonder 'what would happen if I jumped?' and become obsessed with thinking of that and other thoughts of suicide. What's going on with me?

This guy I like told me the other day that he would date me, but he has a girlfriend. Everyone is saying they probably won't last long. We flirt a lot in the one class we have together, and he doesn't really talk to any other girls in there. What do I do? Does her actually like me or is he just saying that?

I really like this guy, but I'm not sure if he likes me back. We have one class together at school and we flirt. But he has a girlfriend. Supposedly he is generally flirty, but he hardly talks to any of the other girls in the class and he talks to me a lot. He always asks for me to do things for him that require touching him(like rolling up his sleeves, etc) and he'll mess with my hair sometimes. I'm not completely sure he likes me though. What should I do? Should I just let things be and see what happens, or what?

I hope this is in the right section. I need to change something. I need to change something now, and it needs to be big and noticeable. I want to change the way people seeing me by doing something completely unexpected. Ideas? Thoughts? Any help is appreciated!!

There is this guy in my first class at school. There aren't very many people in there, and I'm pretty much the only girl he talks to, even though he is friends with this other girl in class. I'm an intern in there, so I help people. He always asks for my help, instead of the teacher's, even if I'm helping another student. He always steals a pencil out of my bag instead of asking for one from someone else(I don't mind that he takes it and he always gives it back). He jokes around with me a lot and pretends to hit me but doesn't actually touch me. Sometimes he will stare at me, and I will look at him, get shy and look away and smile, and when I look back he will still be staring at me but smiling. But, he does have a girlfriend. One of my friends is the football manager and she said they probably won't last long. Oh, and obviously he is a football player, or else she wouldn't know, lol, and I'm kinda the 'emo kid'... If any of that is relevant, haha.... But what could all of this mean?

It seems like no matter who I'm around, no one cares what I say. People will talk over me and interrupt me, then get mad at me because I'm mad that they were rude and wouldn't listen to what I'm saying. It's been happening my whole life and I'm sick of it. How can I make the listen?

Do you ever read something or just sit and think and a vivid image or scene just pops into your head, and you automatically know every little detail about that image or scene, all the details just come easily?

There's this guy I work with. Sometimes he talks to me quite a bit, and other times not at all. At times he won't even look at me, and then occasionally he will stare me right in the eyes, stand really close, touch my arm or something, then smile and back away, all in the span of a few seconds. He's really frustrating! What can I do to get back at him, so I'm the one deciding what happens?

I've been talking to this guy since around March. Not talking talking.... Just talking as friends, although I have liked him since I met him. Even though we've talked a lot, we haven't really gotten into anything personal. How can I get him to open up to me and take our friendship to a more personal level? He's a really sweet guy and I love talking to him, so I don't want to say anything that would make him stop talking to me. Any ideas on how to get him to open up?

After starting a book, do you ever walk away from it and not work on it for a long time, then come back and keep working on it and finally finish it? If so, how long is the longest period of time you have stopped working on it until you start again?

I read somewhere it is coming out June 30th, but I don't know if this is true. Anyone know?

The only recent thing I could find about Tokio Hotel was something posted yesterday on the U.S. website about the AIDS campaign today, and where to get a shirt. I can't find anything about concert dates or news articles or ANYTHING! Any sites that have updated info on Tokio Hotel?

The book I'm working on right now is about a band that gets signed. Would I be rushing into things if I started out with the show that gets them signed? I already have written when they meet the producer, so I just need everything leading up to that, but I'm not really sure what to write.... Ideas?
