Hey girl,

You need to block that site from your computer, so you're not tempted to go on it anymore. You can search the internet for how to block sites, or ask a friend or parent to do it for you. x0x0

MODERATOR!!!!!!!! Can you be depressed because you didn't have any friends during childhood? I'm thirteen now and I have great friends. But I'm so angry and sad all the time. I feel as if everything is my fault. I was bullied in sixth grade. Can this be the cause to my problem? Help? Thanks!




Hey girl, it's hard to say (only a psychologist could really accurately) but it could be a valid theory. If you feel sad and depressed, I would talk to a guidance counselor. It sounds like you've gone through some tough stuff and though things are better now, there's still scars. It's OK to reach out to get help to help you patch and heal them.

If you tie a cherry stem in a knot with your tongue, does that really mean you're a "good kisser?" What exactly does it prove?

~Mod~
I have a few quick questions
1. Im going camping in a couple days im afraid of the ocean were going.Ive seen one to many dangerous animal shows involving the ocean how should I conqure the fear or avoid it?
2. My friends coming along the trip with me and if were together for to long we get on each others nerves what should I do?




Hey girl, 1) sea critters don't stick to the shallow end that much. Make a point not to go too deep and remind yourself you're going to be just fine. And of course, no matter what you do, go in with a friend. 2) Just take a breather for a bit. Go on a walk or do something apart before you get back together. Be sure to give yourselves a break to see other people once in a while.

xoxo

i don't think this an 'okay' thing for GL to post. i mean if you're going to be a leader...you're born one. you're always the one to take charge. i don't think you could ever change...it's unnatural. i don't think you could ever change yourself. you always eventually change back to your follower self. that's leadership 101 taught in a leadership convention

*********MOD************* I am 5'2" and weight 196 pounds. I want to lose a lot of weight before school starts. My doctor said that losing tons of weight really fast is ok for me to do. But on what diets could I lose 5 pounds a week?

 

 

Hey girly! I know you want an answer, but we're not trained to dish out medical advice like this. Your best bet is to talk to your doc and together, you two can come up with a plan to get you where you want to be Smile

MOD- I want to be more like my older sister. She has a job, has style, tons of good friends, is skinnier, her hair is straight, she is smarter then me, she knows how to get along with people, she is popular, has style, knows how to wear makeup and do her hair, my parents rarely punish her. She is almost everything I'm not. She and I don't get along either though you would think we would since we are close in age. I'm like the opposite! It's awful.Frown How can I be more like her?

 

 

Hey girly! I feel the same way about my sister sometimes. Actually, a lot of the time. However, you can't live your live trying to be like someone else. You should be YOU, and find something to make yourself unique! Take up a new talent or hobby, and then you'll be the one standing out and shining Smile

MOD MOD MOD! Is it normal to like someone so much you're overwhelmed and kind of stressed out? If not, what is it?

 

 

Hey girly! It's totally normal to feel like that Smile

I'm definitely not a natural leader, probably because I hate making decisions. Especially ones that affect other people!

hahaha that's actually so true ! but personally, i think that some ppl are born leaders others born followers ! it's just how it works ! i'm a natural leader & i love it Smile but seriously imagine the whole world leaders or followers! i always try to focus on being MY best & the best leader i can be ..so i think this girl needs to work on her self esteem & being more INDEPENDENT!changing who u r does not work ..be yourself..& i agree , being a leader is about being open to other's ideas & strict.not bossy!
