so i like this guy. thing is, im not allowed to date. i want to write something flirty in his yearbook, but im not sure if he likes me back. sometimes it seems like he does, but other times it seems like a show. he is popular and has a ton of friends, but is a good guy. what can i write? i want to put my phone number in there without saying I Like You. Please Call Me, cause even though hes going to high school next year and im not, i dont want to b embarrassed.
thanks so much, and sorry so long.
xoxo,
natalie :<)

 

Just say it was nice to get to know you these past few years. Text me this summer and we can hang out! then include the number. Just be friendly and make sure he knows you're glad you know him and want to know him better. Good luck!! xoxo kerra

Moderator!
I'm going to las Vegas from a week on saturday. I will be on my period ... and since most of the trip is swimming, I CAN'T DO IT! What do I do? I can't use tampons!

 

Try tampons until you can use them. I promise you they're a dream come true once you know how to use them. So helpful and I use them all the time. You'll get the hang of it. Dont give up yet! xoxo kerra

I'm 16..and have been through A LOT, and would be happen to help you through anything. No question's to personal or to weird..trust me I can handle it.
Ask me about absolutley anything..I can give you top notch advice in:
