What do guys consider "going out"?

What do guys consider “going out”? Are you going out if you call each other? Do stuff together? I’m confused.


Dave: Guys tend to take things literally. Therefore, “going out” is defined as being recognized by others as a couple that, uh, goes out. Instant messaging and chatting on the phone are important elements of going out but, until you step out together, they don’t have much significance. The process goes something like this: Find someone you like. Go out and do lots of fun stuff. See how things go when you’re together around other people and in different situations. After that, if you still like each other, you’ve found someone to “go out” with. Then comes the best part of going out—staying in. 


Bill: Dave is (gulp!) right. After all, most guys prefer to stay in. That way, they don’t have their social skills tested (and it’s cheaper). But you deserve to be shown a good time. And if it turns out you’re not that wild about the guy, you can use “going out” as a way to scope Mr. Next.

I want to start wearing makeup, (before school starts) but I don't know how to bring it up with my mom because I don't know how she'll react. Any ideas?

 

Hey girl! NExt time you're headed to the grocery store or BTS shopping with your mom, bring up that you'd like to pick up some mascara or lip gloss if it's okay with her.  They key is to show her that you can put on a little bit of makeup (instead of a whole face of makeup, which she might not think you're ready for).  If she says no, you'll have to follow her rules, but if you ask calmly, she might say yes! xoxo

This is gross, but lately vaginal area is burning! It's also a little red. I think I'm about to get my first period soon. Could this have anything to do With that?? Also, I can't exactly see a doctor because I'm in another country! Do you think I should just wait a few days to see if it still hurts? Thanks

 

Hey chica! If you just wait a few days to see if it calms down, you should be fine.  If it doesn't, talk to your mom- you might have an infection.  xoxo

PLEASE HELP.
so i have this friend who really bugs me... she has to do everything with me. we dont got to the same school, however when we are together she has to do it everything with me. in addition, my parents think we are like bffs because she wants to do everything with me. and our parents are friends so they offer to take her places with us when i dont want to and want to take other friend. people say we look like too, which doesnt help at all either. please help it bothers me a lot. It is like if we go somewhere and i go see someone, she calls me to get me back where she is. and when i go buy food, she has to tag along. I dont really get it. i want to be independent but she prevents me from doing that. help!!! thanks




Hey Girl, 

I know you feel annoyed but try to take it as a compliment that she wants to be around you so much. She probably feels lonely and doesn't have many other friends. Why not introduce her to a few new friends? That way she'll have more options when she's looking for someone to hang out with. In the mean time, try not to hurt her feelings-- maybe suggest a group hang out so she'll meet new people!




best of luck!

I don't know if u can help me with this but...
I'm buying a Naked palette from urban decay and want to know if I should get Naked or Naked2.
I have dark brown eyes, dark brown/black hair, black eyebrows and lightish medium skin.
Any idea which would be better? Xoxo

 

Hey girl! Ask the girls at the makeup store you go to.  If you're ordering online, look at the reviews, a lot of people mention their coloring and you'll be able to see who likes what colors.  xoxo

Whenever I chat with my crush on my email account he always uses short words or just emoticons,should I take this as a bad thing? Or is it just the way 12 year old guys are?

 

Hey girl, Unfortunately, that's just the way guys are.  We're more into talk, and guys like doing things more, so guys of any age tend to use pretty short language.  xoxo
