Smart girl tips for focusing more on grades--and less on guys

I really want to concentrate on my studies, but I can't stop obsessing about my crush. How can I focus about my school subjects?
 
Hey chica! It can be tough sometimes to remember that school is about, well, school.  Especially after summer, when you haven’t seen your crush in ages, it’s super tough to focus in and deal with homework and notes.  Think about it like this: if you want to impress this dude, the way to do it is not staying home every weekend to catch up on all of the school work you missed out on.
 
Find fun ways to focus in class that will help when your teacher starts to lecture on about things way less interesting than your crush.  Try bringing bright pens to class and color coding your notes with them or trying to make silly sentences to remember steps to solve a problem in math class.  If you’re having fun paying attention, you’ll be able to keep your mind off of the cutie sitting in front of you and you will be in perfect shape to offer to be his study buddy for the big test!

Mod mod. So I think one of my guy friends likes me. First he wants me to be his bus buddy for a band comp, asks our math teacher if he could sit nxt to me (who could blame him tho. He sat next to idiots), then at the band comp he insists that I be with him on a piggy back ride race, he wants me to sit nxt to him insted of inbetween my two other guy friends, and wants to be in a blanket with me walking to the second award ceromony, then while walking he puts his arm around me. We were like this all night. Don't get me wrong I love this guy to death. But as a friend. I'm so confused if he likes me or not. At lunch at school he just acts different. Please help me understand.

 

Hey May9, maybe he just wanted to be your partner for all those things because he didn't want to work with anyone else. If I were in class with my best friend or even just a friend, I would beg the teacher to let me sit near them too. So look out for other flirty signs to be sure. Hope this helps! Xoxo

I've like this guy since about the eighth grade. Now I'm in tenth and over the years I've tried to stop, but every time it's gotten worse. I like him now more than I've ever liked anyone. Everyday he kinda flips my hair, haha. We don't really talk as much as we used to in middle school, mostly because I've gotten super shy around him. Frown one time last year my friend said he should hug me and he did. Then everyone, even his own friend, was saying stuff like,"ohh love at first sight" and whatnot. Anoer time my other friend said that he must like me and he said he didn't. He always says he doesnt but it seems like he does....How can I make things like they were in middle school? And get him to like me, or admit it? Thanks!

Well I have been feeling super stressed lately. As of this month I have been super busy and I've hardly had any free time. I'm busy with school, piano lessons, voice lessons, the play I'm in, and confirmation classes at my church. When im not a a piano or voice lesson or at play practice, I'm trying to get in all my homework, memorize bible verses for confirmation, do chores, or just get my room cleaned up which hasn't happened in forever. We are getting a puppy soon which means things will get even more chaotic. How can I survive all this without getting stressed? How can I manage my time so I have time for myself and time for everything else?

SO I know that you don't actually have an answer for this but I just want someone else’s opinion... There's this boy, (I'll call him S) and his friend (W) and we had a spare together earlier this week and suddenly S says 'What? W and (me) are dating?' and a few minutes later he says to me 'You and W are getting married?' I had also loaned S a pencil crayon and when he gave it back to me where it has a place to but your name it had my first initial and his last name. I've known both boys since kindergarten, and I like S, as more than a friend. S has always teased me and I'm wondering if it sounds like he likes me as a friend or something more? Thanks!

Hey girl,

He might just be teasing you because you're friends, or he might want to be something more! Either way, why not ask him to dance with you next time you have a school dance, or try to hang out with him more as friends? You don't have to be super obvious, but you can still let him know you like spending time with him!
