I'm your typical 'broke, full-time college student' and I've never had a car before. I do have a part-time, minimum-wage job that gets my by fairly well with groceries and other little expenses (my living arrangement is paid for by FAFSA, so there is no worry there).

Here is the thing, however; my parents can hardly afford the insurance on their own car, let alone cannot afford a new vehicle right now. How can I go about saving up for and getting a car?

My goal is to have one or start making payments by this summer (I have an internship away from home and would really like to have a car by then!)

Thanks in advance.

I am currently a sophomore in college and would like some extra money. Mixology seems incredibly fun! Please provide any helpful links and tips :)

I'm 18, in college, have recently been asked out...My mother would like my to double date because the guy and I have just met. Even though I truly understand her concerns, I think that this is a bit childish. What are your thoughts and suggestions to this?

My new boyfriend had a very messy break-up with his girlfriend over a year ago and she keeps popping up in his life...an example would be that she keeping sending dirty pictures of herself and the guy she cheated with to him to this day. What can I tell him that will help him?

So I had a dream a few weeks ago about a guy that I know (LET'S JUST SAY HIS NAME IS JOHN).

FIRST OFF, I knew him since I was in 3rd grade and he was in 4th grade. We rode the same bus, went to the same elementary, middle, and now high school...still ride the same bus. Now he's a junior and I'm a sophomore. We have never really talked to each other except for teasing each other on the bus rides to home and school. But, that was up until maybe middle school when all conversation stopped.

Once on a ride home, John and one of his friends were sitting across from me (I was in sixth grade at the time). A high school senior told me that John and his friend liked me. I was totally surprised because I knew them both for so long and they both live in my neighborhood. Since I was only in the sixth grade-- fresh out of elementary school-- I didn't know what to do/ think so I let it go.

We've had those awkward moments on the bus ride where we had to sit three to a seat, me in the middle, John by the window and his guy friend beside me. He kept teasing me and yelling stuff like, "I don't like when people touch my shoulder with there shoulder!" And even though he and everyone else was laughing, I secretly felt bad and sort of embarrassed while his friend said that we fight like a married couple and will get together one day.

(I've considered-- In my mind-- us together once or twice or more before but it was soon forgotten... He's been to and in my house for different reasons but I never thought it was for me)

Onto the dream: I walked into my room and found a peach-colored note on my desk and attached to it was the fullest, prettiest, peach-colored rose. In the dream, I had a mind-set that I only sort of, kind of liked him but I knew we'd never be together and I didn't know why. So, I opened the letter and it read something like, "I feel as if I'm deeply and madly in love with you and I've been in love with you for a really long time." There was more but I really can't remember. The next thing I did was show my mother-- who I'm very close to-- and I was going to walk down the street to his house and tell him something (We only live a few doors down from each other). But right when I was walking down my stair to go to his house, the dream ended and I woke up. I wanted to punch my self in the face right then and there because I wanted it SO BAD to be real. That's another thing... I actually wanted to be with him.

After that dream, I saw him differently. Like he was my crush or something. Now we tease each other on the bus rides and I've never noticed before but he smiles-- and does other things to show he's interested-- when I say something that's even stupid. I do the same because I think I like him... like that.

A week passed and I had another dream about him... Can't remember anything about. And then, just last Friday I had ANOTHER dream about him. But this one was about him and his younger sister sleeping over my house for some reason, but I stayed at my friend's house that night. And when I woke up from that dream, I was actually at a slumber party that night.

I don't really know what this can mean:( I'm having mixed emotions about it all. He sorta seems like an older brother to me just really, really distant. Like, we'd never talk to each other but he'd go out of his way to help me with the smallest thing. I think it's strange how I've had three dreams about him. And, how I'm slowly realizing everything he/ we used to do since we were younger. How he used to like me and was always teasing me in some sort. IDK what to do and what to think! Please give me real answers, this is sort of serious to me.

So, I'm in this organization and there is an equal amount of guys and girls but at a particular meeting, there were more guys than girls. Anyway, while everyone decided to sit on the floor, I was the only one who stood at a podium in the corner. After realizing one of my friends had stole my phone (for the third time) I walked across the room to retrieve it.

As I walked, I'm playfully called out by one of guy friends, "Sit down! You're making me nervous!"

I laughed a bit, then returned to getting my phone when ANOTHER one of my guy friends said, "I think she's making us all nervous..."

So... I do not really know what he meant by that. It could mean many things to me.

He (the second guy) actually is one of the sweetest guys I know. But, sometimes I notice he may stare at me (my legs) and smiles when I catch him but then continues. It's not really in a creepy way, so I'm still so confused if he's attracted to me or not.

I'm not so used to guys flirting with me so I cannot tell if he's just being nice or flirting with me. There were other similar instances but that's "Another Story For Another Day".

So what is this called? I'd really like to know.
