My new friend is Muslim, I think, and during wintertime I always get my friends Hanukkah/Christmas presents. I don t know if it would be best to not give her a present, even though I am giving presents to my other friends, but this makes me feel like I m excluding her, which I definitely don t want to do. I also don t want to seem ignorant by getting her a present. I am Jewish, so I was thinking of getting her a present that says, "Happy Hanukkah" on it. What should I do?

I'm in college and last night a guy invited me to his room for pizza but I said I had homework, (over text) he said he did all his, I said "wow, super productive" and he didn't respond. I wish I didn't but what do I do now? Will he ask me out again or is it over?

Thanks!

(Also, school is over next week and I'm not coming back if that changes anything)

I m in college, and last night a guy asked me to his room to share pizza, but I said no, that I was doing homework, (I honestly don t even know why. I wish I didn t) and he didn t respond after. I know he s had a crush on me, and I ve had a crush on him, so what do I do now?

Also, I m leaving the college in a week for good, if that changes anything.

Thank you!

I have two beliefs: people are innately good, and all people are terrible. How is it possible for me to truly believe both of these things?

Is the pea in the pod?

Has the banana split?

Is the mouse in the house?

Is the bird in the nest?

Is the chicken in the coop?

Is the pig in the pen?

Has Elvis left the building?

My best friend is Chloe and five months ago she started dating Freddie. Freddie and I are now really close, and he is a good friend of mine. Is it weird that we hang out together now? We are in college, and Freddie and I eat almost every meal together. Believe me, I do not have feelings for Freddie, and I know he doesn't have feelings for me. (He is incredibly in love with Chloe, and is even trying to set me up with his best friend). So is this weird or not? My friend Chloe thinks it's fine, by the way.

My best friend is Chloe. She is dating Freddie, who is also my friend. Freddie is trying to set me up with his best friend Jason, because he thinks we would be really good together. Jason's nice and cute (I've met him a few times) but I am afraid that there will be too much pressure on us. Do you have any advice?

I was thinking maybe something by Hans Christian Anderson, or maybe some classic children's books. I want to be a teacher, so I'd like to read something that will help me out then. I am 19 and in college and need to read more. Please suggest some classic books, whether children's books or not.

I always eat until I am no longer hungry, and I eat relatively slowly. But within a half hour, I feel as though I could eat another meal. I don't eat a lot during meals, but I feel like I need to eat more than 3 meals a day. I am a 19 year old girl. Why?

Anna, Maya, and Adam

Anna is after my grandma Anita, Maya is after my grandpa Martin, and Adam is after my grandpa Arthur.

Please say if and why you like each name.

Also, can you think of any other 4 letter, 2 syllable names that have 2 letter A's?

Thanks!
