Can I also use these tactics for when I go meet my boyfriend's parents? I'm really nervous to meet them & I want to make a great immpression. Any other tips you could give me?

 

hey! yeah totally. I would say just smile, make eye contact, and be friendly to them. Asking them questions about themselves and participating in family discussion will put them at ease as your hosts and help them get to know you. Clearing your own plate won't hurt either ;)

Please help! I just came back from a camp and I made a lot of close friends there! Everyone from the camp has been talking a lot and texting. I'm pretty sure that we will stop once school starts though. I'm going into high school next year and I'm super worried about the classes and if I will be able to handle them. The sports that I picked out put a lot of pressure on me. And I feel like my friends here won't even come close to the friends I made at camp. I really feel down in the dumps about this and I feel like crying all the time because I don't want to handle school. What's wrong with me?

 

Hey chica, cheer up! Nothing is wrong with you! I made a lot of new friends right before school started and felt the exact same way you do.  The good news is that you WILL find friends at school that measure up to your camp friends.  You just have to have an open mind about it.  A great way to make friends? Hang with girls on your team (ask people if they want to do some extra practicing on the weekends and then hit a movie- you'll bond with your tea AND get better at your sport).  You can make study groups and hang out with people in your classes, too.  I promise you that you will get through high school, even if right now it looks daunting.  Good luck! xoxo

Hey! So for BTS shopping, I wanted to go to Aéropostale, Forever21, and American Eagle, maybe Hollister and/or Abercrombie? I am not sure if I should go to AE, Hollister, and Abercrombie because it is SO PRICEY there and I need money for shoes too and a backpack! Should I go to AE, Holister, and Abercrombie? I only have $250 and I need $ for shoes and a backpack!

 

Hey girl! Try online shopping before you hit the mall.  Budget money for your backpack and shoes and then look at the websites for the stores you want to go to.  Pick out items you might want that are in the budget (warning: everything that's online might not be in the store, but you'll have an idea of how much you want to spend in each store).  That way, before you go, you'll know how much money you have and whether you can hit the pricier stores.  xoxo

Next year, I am going to highschool for the first time. I missed the orientation, so I'm scared about getting lost. I don't know what to do because I'm really shy and I don't want to seem like a freak. Help, please!

 

Hey girl! Your school might be open for a day or two before classes start, so try to go in the day before and map out your classes (walk between all of your classes a few times so you can remember where they are).  If you smale and are nice, you won't seem like a freak- lots of people will be as frazzled as you are.  Good luck! xoxo

In two weeks, I'm going to be seeing my ex. I currently have a bf, but I think I still like my ex… It would hurt my bf soo much if he found out I cheated on him. The other problem is I think my ex AND his lil bro both like me! IDK what to do!!!

 

Hey girl! First of all, unless you've already done it, there's no reason to cheat on your boyfriend.  If you want to be in a relationship with your ex, then you should break up with your current boyfriend.  Don't bring your ex's brother into this, focus on the guys you have feelings for.  Good luck! xoxo
