  • Should my boyfriend tell his ex about us?

    me and my boyfriend have been together about 6 months, and before we got together he had just got out of a 2 year relationship. I was really wary about being a rebound/getting in the middle of something so it took me a while to commit, but we're really happy and in love today.The problem is, i'm going on a year abroad to america and we both agreed we'd rather split up and potentially revisit the relationship one day than struggle through long distance/put lots of energy into mundane chatting on the internet. The complication is he hasn't told his ex girlfriend about us, and doesn't want to hurt her feelings. But it's making me feel insecure and upset, and he doesn't see much point in hurting her feelings if we only have two months left. He says if I wasn't going away he would tell her, and that he'd like to think we'd be together indefinitely. But a year is a long time and no one knows what the situation will be by the time I get back. I feel like a bit of an idiot as if i'm a 'filler' girlfriend or something, but also understand in his simple boy mind he thinks its easier just to not tell her ... I don't know whether I'm making a drama out of nothing if we're breaking up in two months anyway! She's under the impression they will get back together after uni (they broke up because it was a long distance uni relationship) and he's gone out of his way to hide her from finding out on social media. It's a weird situation.

  • How did JFK overcome West Berlin's criticism? - Berlin Wall 1961?

    In my history textbook, it says that 'Kennedy succesfully overcame criticism from those in West Germany who wanted him to react in a more agressive manner' (towards the Berlin Wall). How did he win people over for not doing much about the wall but simply protesting?

  • advice on language oral exam?

    Today I had a spanish oral exam, I had prepared and learnt my answers off by heart and felt fairly confident. My teacher then started the tape and I stumbled and messed up and it got to a point where I suddenly knew nothing and sat in silence for an awkward 4 minutes. It was extremely difficult and I felt so nervous and upset. Luckily, the teachers are allowing me to re sit it next week but I'm scared that I'll learn it all again and go blank when the tape starts! How can I avoid blanking and get the best marks possible? any advice really appreciated!

  • full time working parents problem?

    My whole life my parents have worked full time and we've always had a childminder. I am 15 and my sister is now 12, so there is less need of our childminder now. She cooks a meal for us (doesn't take her long) then hangs around for a long time doing nothing because we are both at ages of not needing to be taken care of.

    Its got to the point where we are all considering letting her go now, I think it would be easier for everyone as myself and my sister can cook. the only problem would be getting lifts to and from friends houses, the gym etc. I'm sure there are many teenagers in the same situation that are home alone and can't get lifts, so out of interest how do you suggest/how do you solve this kind of problem? I can't rely on my friends for lifts all the time!

    thanks

  • Questions about the career of a writer?

    I read articles on hellogiggles.com everyday and I love them. They are funny, interesting and the topic varies a lot. In fact, I'm considering it as a future career, but at 15 this is merely an idea.

    here is an example article that I read (and adored) today:

    http://hellogiggles.com/life-advice-tester-meet-a-...

    My questions are:

    1) What is this career (specifically) called?

    2) What qualifications/skills are needed?

    3) what is the pay like? (if low, what is do you need to do to earn an exceptionally good salary)

    4) Would you recommend it?

    5) How easy is it to become one of these writers?

    thanks to anyone who can be bothered to answer! x

  • Can you submit articles into hellogiggles.com?

    its an entertainment and lifestyle website founded by zooey deschanel and others, on the website there is an option to 'contribute' but does anyone know what this means? Like if you submit say, a page of an opinionated article on something, could they possibly select it to be shown on the website somehow? I don't understand how it works.

  • how did 'July Days' help Bolsheviks gain power in november 1917?

    Apparently it did - I just don't understand because the July Days doesn't sound as if it benefited the Bolsheviks at all? They were defeated after trying to seize power when they weren't ready.

    Can anyone help? thank you.

    In an essay I wrote:

    solia hacer mucho ejercicio cada la semana tanto no era obesa, but it was marked wrong with a side note saying 'part of the expression is missing'

    what have I missed out?

    Also, the following sentence: 'Solia ser muy sucio porque futbol implicar funcionamiento en un campo fangoso' was marked as unclear (I meant to write 'I used to get very dirty because football involved running in a muddy field')

    What have I done wrong?

When I press the volume keys on left hand side of phone it just says ringer and no sign of controlling any volume, when I open music the music doesn't play and once again the volume bar isn't there. However voice memos work out loud but I think that's it. I have restarted my phone and still the same issues. Thanks in advance

  • Are these concerts 'safe'?

    Hi,

    I'm 15 years old and wanting to go to a concert with my friends.

    Iwould like to see either All American Rejects, neon Trees, Boys Like Girls, Bowling for Soup, Greenday, Mayday parade...(or someone close to that kind of music).

    I was wondering if anyone has had experience with any of these bands and is it safe to go unsupervised (but with an adult there and back) or is this a concert that involves a lot of alcohol and drugs?
