1 AnswerChemistry5 years agoHow do I get revenge on a guy who used me as a bet, played with my feelings, and then tried to hook up with my friend?
I'm a freshman and I'm on a college dance team. First semester, I went out with a guy on the same dance team who''s a junior. I liked him a LOT and slept over his place and we got really close. Out of nowhere, he said let's just be friends and we broke up. 2 days ago, I found out that he had made a bet with his friends that he could get a freshman to hook up with him, and that was me. I REALLY liked him still after we broke up and I told him that. I just found out today that while I was telling him that I still like him, he tried hooking up with one of my friends who is also on the same dance team. She rejected him though and he was really upset about it. I am so angry that I was just a bet to him and that he tried hooking up with my friend too. I have to see this guy EVERYDAY because of the dance team. How do I get revenge? I can't just sit around and pretend like everythings okay when all I want to do is slap him in the face. He has no idea that I know about the bet or that he tried to hook up with my friend.
3 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoWhat should I do next? I feel like a failure?
I'm on a college dance team of 19 people and only 18 people get to dance at an upcoming competition. I'm a freshman on the team and there are only 3 freshman on the team so I knew that it could be a possibility that it might be me. I worked my but off to practice and work as hard as I possibily could and the captains knew that. But then they said im gonna be the one sitting out for this competition because I need to work on my footwork. It's embarrassing being the only one sitting out and it feels horrible. I told them that I'm taking a break for a few days from dance because I need to focus on school. After this competition, there's a another one in 3 weeks and if I improve, I could dance in that one. But I worked so hard to try to improve my footwork and its just not working. Should I quit or keep trying? It's embarrassing going back, I feel like a failure.

3 AnswersCorporations6 years agoCan I buy my own graduation cord?
So I'm president of Future Educators of America, named the best tutor and mentor of a mentoring program, and dedicated hours to clubs and volunteering; however, I am not receiving a graduation cord while others in my school are receiving one just for being part of a club such as FCCLA. Is it okay if I buy my own graduation cord if I feel like I worked hard and really deserved it? Also its embarrassing to not have a cord because everyone has one.
2 AnswersOther - Education7 years agoI need help! Boy troubles!?
Okay so I like this one guy, let's call him "Bob." Bob sent me a facebook message saying that he knows someone who is serious about going to prom with me. I asked who? And he said "Nate" (his friend).
The thing is, I do like Nate as a friend, but i like bob as more than a friend. And I really thought Bob and I hit it off. We even flirted with each other.
Also, I've known Bob for 4 years now and i've only known Nate for about 4 months.
How do I tell Bob that I wanted to go with him to prom, not his friend Nate??
I was going to go up to Bob and ask him "what if I said no to Nate's prom proposal?"
Please help!!!

6 AnswersOther - Beauty & Style7 years agoNeed help picking a college and pre-med route!!?
So I applied to BS/MD and BS/DO direct 7 yr/8yr programs and I was accepted into a 7 year BS/DO program and another BS/DO program where I can apply earlier for medical school in my sophomore year of college. The thing is, the college with the 7 yr BS/DO program is not as prestigious as the other one that I was accepted into. And also, I always wanted to do MD since DO is not as popular. I would not mind going to undergrad and then applying to medical school as MD but my dad wants my future to be safe so he's suggesting to take the 7 yr BS/DO program and I can just take the MCATs and apply to med school as MD later on. So what should I do?! Does it matter at all if the college is prestigious or not? Would it be okay if I decided to do MD later on instead?

6 AnswersFashion & Accessories8 years agoIs this sentence grammatically correct? I feel like its a run on?
The symphonic rhythm of the heart monitor machines,swift flipping of the patient’s chart, scramble of the nurses as they attend to the patients, the snap of the gurney as its being raised and the chitter chatter of the doctors as they discuss the treatment plans: these vibrations flutter through my body, reminding me exactly why I adore the field of medicine.
I feel like the part before the ":" is a run on. If so, how can I fix it to make it sound better?!
Thank you so much!:)

2 AnswersWords & Wordplay8 years agoI'm trying to write a metaphor in my essay but i feel like its all wrong?! Help me rephrase it?:)?
Through middle school I had myriad insecurities. I always fretted over what others thought of me instead of focusing on what I thought of myself.

I believed that I was inept and incompetent.

Or if you guys have any suggestions on how to write it that would be incredible!
