I'm going to a dance and I want this guy to like me,what do I do?
So there's this guy and I really like him. We are both intelligent and I know that i am good looking. We are also both athletic,but I get mixed signals from him. He compliments me a lot and smiles at me and tries to have conversations sometimes. However, at other times he is sorta mean and dates other girls and talks about them. I'm pretty sure he doesn't like me, but he is Mormon and is going to a dance this weekend that I will be attending witha Mormon friend of mine. I would like for him to like me, but I am shy and have trouble holding conversations. Also, I have an issue with boys looking at my face so I tend to avert eye contact. It's not because I dislike them, it's because I'm afraid there is something on my face that he'll noice or be disgusted by...don't ask me,idkwhy, I don't even have acne! Anyway, any tips appreciated, please help me! Thanks in advance
1 AnswerSingles & Dating9 years agoIs my sister anorexic? PLEASE HELP ME!!?
I'm very worried about my sister! She has never been a very big eater and both her and I are very thin and in shape (we are runners). Lately, at the age of 13.5, she has began eating even less! At first I thought it was just a phase but when my parents took note I feared somehting more!
She has greatly reduced the amount she eats and denies it whenever I confront her. I ask her why she is eating less and she says she isn't. I tell her she is acting anorexic but she says no. Everytime someone talks to her about eating she gets very defensive and angry.
She has for a few years said that her legs are too big. They aren't. Now, I really think she may have a problem but I can't be for sure! She still eats some things, but hardly any. My mom has threatened to not let her run if she doesn't eat more, but nothing changed. She looks at calorie counts nearly obssessively.
IS THERE A PROBLEM? IS SHE ANOREXIC? WHAT SHOULD I AND MY FAMILY DO?
2 AnswersDiet & Fitness10 years agoI need help in nearly every aspect of social communication! Please, have mercy!?
I am a teenage girl who is very active in sports, talented in school, and attractive. To explain, I am a state competitor in cross country and track, have never received anything lower than an "A" on a report card, and am tall, thin, brunette, and beautiful. So, every year before school starts I'm asking myself the same question...Why do I feel like an outsider in my group of friends? Also, why do boys virtually shun me?
I hang out with the "in" group of girls at my school. I really fail to identify with any of them though. My old BFF and I kinda separated because our friend group split down the middle. She went to one side and I went to the other and things definitely haven't been the same. So, I try to fit in but I'm never invited to any parties or get togethers and I feel lonely and ignored. How can I become more a part of my group and gain some popularity, or at least gain some level of comfort among the people who I choose to hang out with.
As for the opposite sex, I fail to understand what is so off-putting about me! I'm very shy and rarely talk. Some have told me that boys are intimidated by me, but how? I never even speak? I get nervous and "crush" on different boys but never do anything about it. Any guesses or tips? I really want a relationship at some point this school year.
Please help me! Anything is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
7 AnswersFriends10 years agoAm I overweight, normal, or too thin?
I am a 15 year old girl. I am an avid runner, participating in both cross country and track. I am around 5' 8.5'' and 108 pounds. I am mostly muscle, with long legs. I kinda am thinking about going on a diet because, although I am comfortable with most of my body, when I look down at my stomach it looks really puffy. I do sit-ups and stuff but it won't go away! I'm also a vegetarian!
8 AnswersDiet & Fitness10 years agoBack-To-School shopping!? How'd I do?
I went back to school shopping today, although I already have a nicely built up wardrobe.I shopped at stores like Macy's, Express, White House Black Market, etc. I wanted a good collection of fall clothes...may do a bit more shopping later but for now, what do you think?
1 pair dark wash Guess bootcut jeans
1 pair Express barely boot dark
1 pair Express skyscraper light jeans
1 Express button down silky orange shirt
1 Express flowy leopard print top
1 Express grey sweater
pair of brown combat boots
I almost bought a homecoming dress but didn't because it's too early. If it matters, I am 5'9'' and 108 lbs. I have long legs and very short brown hair. (almost buzzed on the sides and a bit longer on top to make a fauxhawk) Thanks!
5 AnswersFashion & Accessories10 years agoDo you like torture scenes and extreme DEATH?
In a book I'm writing there ar numerous torture scenes and executions that are extremely detailed because I, the author, enjoy that type of gore. Now, I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks! Here's an example:
Peoples heads exploded by expanding umbrella-like fans
Peoples genitalia being removed/mutilated
Heads being crushed between giant stones
Heart being cut out and electroceuted
Eyes scooped out with hot spoons
(just a few examples)
5 AnswersBooks & Authors10 years agoWould anyone read this novel?
I've been writing a novel for about a year now and am ready for some feedback. Pleasee give any criticisms or compliments!
A girl named Mary is about twenty five years old when she wakes up with no memory in a mysterious facility. She isnt able to recall anything about her former life but does realize that she had One. She is governed by Master Doctor William, whom she refers to internally as Master. He has the capability to control her with his words/commands if he wants to. Since Mary is at times very afraid and distrustful ( and with good reason) their relationship is fraught. The facility is actually a government run experimental facility unknown to Mary. She gradually remembers things from her past including the fact that her and master doctor William were married. Master refuses to go along with her escapes though he undoubtedly still loves her, her feelings left along with the memory wipe. There is a lot more detail and stuff but overall what do you think? If it makes any difference, the book involves many torture/execution scenes and maybe a sex scene.
5 AnswersBooks & Authors10 years agothis one is for the guys: do you think it's weird or do you like it when...?
If a girl you'd met but never really talked to a lot texted you first and told you that she thought you were cute, would you like it or would you think she was weird? I have a crush on a boy with a hot body and a great personality, but I'm afraid I'll turn him off if I tell him how I feel! I need a man's opinion on this please! Also, I have short hair, am thin, and we have a lot in common. Any tips, opinions, or criticisms appreciated!
1 AnswerSingles & Dating10 years agoHow long would it take me to walk from Juneau Alaska to Florida?
It's about fours thousand miles and I'll be walking not driving. Theoretically, how long would it take? I'm very "in-shape" and can walk comfortably at a pace of about 3.5-4 miles an hour (is that too fast?) I will have to carry things and stop to hunt. Does anyone have any idea? experience? Anything is appreciated!
7 AnswersOther - United States1 decade agoReligious poem! What do you think?
Lonely number seven.
Out of seven.
Never going to get to heaven.
May the lord awaken thee,
Open your eyes and let you see.
What our world could possibly be
Without religion clouding me.
A smothering velvet cape
Mouth agape
Swallowing everything sanctioned with tape.
All our open minds to rape.
God, I'll never manage escape!
Worship this cross and crucifixion.
Let go of your logic and feed our addiction
No one must know our books are fantasy fiction
From 2000 b.c. to revelation prediction.
Give up your morals, your heart and your soul
Trade them all in For an empty black hole.
No education, to Hell with the school.
O come little children, O come and enroll.

Wherefore art thou?
When spoken in tongues
Of long hair and flaxen hues
Of mistakes and definitions
Of individuality
Fondled and beaten
At the hands of
Voracious youth
Of which you once were.
Let lips do what palms do
Hit and mutilate
Violate
What is spoon fed, swallowed
And hence disposed.
The ideas given and not born
Adopted, not had
Of toil nor sweet sweat
Therefore remaining as bony
Carcasses, ne’r to be filled with
Viral flesh of unfettered
Imagination.
Profaners of this neighbor-stained steel.
If only that is what we’d speak
And not, take from me
The Nasturtiums, and grow woozy
By their scent.
If passion had its play
For one stanza
Of what is the peacing,
Drying, losing life.
I have lost myself; I am not here
Perhaps the only truths
Spilled by the depressed and
Lamp lit halls of vitality.
Taken is the choice, given is
The rose.
Weep not, though we!
Ignorant to giving away
The heart of our timepiece.
Forever a half. Never
To be recaptured
For who are we to fight
When there’s nothing left to fight for?

1 AnswerPoetry1 decade agoHelp me save my soul!? Any good piteous christians!?
Please, I've learned that i have a terminal illness and until now i've been an atheist! I want to find god and repent for my sins, please help me! Are there any self-torture methods which god will accept? Will someone explain to me some of the workings of the bible? Should I get baptized? What if I go to Hell? What is hell like? Am I sentenced to an eternity of torture? Someone please help me quickly, I'm afraid and willing to do anything to purify my soul!
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agowhy can't I get a guy?
Please help me! I cannot get a guy to like me to save my life! I'm an attractive youg girl. Many say I look like a European high-fashion model. I'm not being vain, I think I'm just average looking, it's other people who tell me different. I have short, short, SHORT brown hair. (It's REALLY short, some people think I'm a boy from behind when I'm not dressed in normal clothes.) I am very shy to people I don't know, but once I'm comfortable I am honest (sometimes brutally so) and a pretty good friend. I can have a mean streak though. So, what I don't know is, why don't guys show interest in me? I'm pretty, generally kind, though no talking much, is that my problem? I'm also very athletic (All-ohio in cross country and track and i do basketball) and very smart (genius IQ and I've never gotten a B on a report card). Some say men are intimidated by me but I just don't think that could be it. SOMEONE PLEASE!!!
7 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoWhat's a girl to do? Racism or not?
My parents are no more racist than anyone else, but they won't let me date black kids! There was this boy last year who was black that I dated and my parents freaked out! They thought that I would get a reputation as a ******lover and no white boys would date me after that. Me and the boy broke up but now we are talking again and I really like him, he's sweet and nice, chances are it won't work out anyway, (we are just in highschool) but I really want to get together with him. What should I do? If I date him secretly we will never be able to see each other. If I date him openly my parents will destroy my phone and make my life miserable. I don't want to just forget about him though....any help is appreciated.

16 AnswersBaby Names1 decade agoIs anyone else with me? Please join me on my quest to restore balance and sanity!?
I've developed my theory of spirituality, please, those who agree and even those who don't, share your thoughts.
The world is a mess, sent awry by overindulgence and disconnectedness. Humans have lost their way, and place, in the world. We were, at one time, a part of the natural world, which we left unmarred. Now, we see ourselves as superior, we have resorted to destruction and destroyed our linkage to the balance of life. The world's life is made up of energy, which flows through us, and continues on as part of the natural world after our passing. If we could only return to our energy, become again what we once were, connected to everyone and everything through the vital life force. There is no god, only the mass of souls which is shared.
Technology, overindulgence, and advancement are the source of our destruction, but we still have time to rebuild by abandoning the modern urges which have hijacked us. We can return to a life of sustenance and reality by recognizing our faults and leaving them.
What I'm saying is that by following our energy, which will lead us back to a state of equality and sharing with the rest of the world, that will make us realize that we are not a part of the puzzle, but that all life and earth is the puzzle itself, then we can finally live in happiness and peace for generations.
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoCan I legally live in the Tongass Forest?
Is it plausible or legal for me to live in Alaska's Tongass forest, in the wilderness? (Living off the land) I wouldn't build any structures and would only hunt what I needed to survive. I want to go with just me, a dog, and maybe a horse, but I dislike today's direction of society and want to escape. I don't want to live in a group of people, just me, the forest, nature, the wildlife, and maybe a dog and a horse. I will get everything needed for survival from the forest. Also, if it is illegal, if I live in a very remote area, what are the odds that I'll get caught?
