    Sappy movies to get us teary

    ·   The Notebook

    Well, really, what’s more romantic than this tearjerker?

     

    ·   Titanic

    It’s both sweet and sad as Jack and Rose risk it all on a sinking ship.

     

    ·   A Walk to Remember

    You’ll def need tissues for this one.

     

    ·   The Time-Traveler’s Wife 

    It’s imaginative and heart breaking as Clare and Henry try to keep up with his unpredictable schedule.

     

    ·   Love, Actually

    Not only meant for the holiday season, this flick follows numerous couples around as they make-up, breakup, and look for love.

    Loveliest Playlist ever

    ·   1D’s “What Makes You Beautiful” is def on our playlist. After all, it won song of the year at the People’s Choice Awards.

     

    ·   We want “Our Song” by Taylor Swift to be, well, our song. Can’t get enough of this jam.

     

    ·   Belt it out to Adele’s “Someone Like You” this V-Day.

     

    ·   What’s not to love about Selena Gomez’s “I Love You Like a Love Song,” right?

     

    ·   “Countdown” to Valentine’s Day with Beyonce’s fab dance music.

  • 3funnyflicks.jpg

    Cute movies with LOL moments

    ·      Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist

    It’s one wild NYC date night movie.

     

    ·      10 Things I Hate About You 

    A fun, ah-dorable twist on Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew. And it features the best pump-it-up jams.

     

    ·     How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

    This flick will have you laughing on the floor as Andie does everything imaginable to get rid of Ben—and he is not gonna give up easily.

     

    ·     27 Dresses

    In 27 Dresses, Jane’s love life is almost as out of control as her closet.

     

    ·     She’s the Man

    We can’t get enough of Amanda Byne’s when she pretends to be a guy in this movie…and falls for her roommate!

  • 4vdaybooks.jpg

    Romantic must-reads

    ·     Pretty much any Sarah Dessen book has adorable teen romance, but we love The Truth About Forever’s Macy and her crazy catering adventures with Wes.

     

    ·     In John Green’s An Abundance of Katherines, Colin is recovering after he gets dumped by Katherine—the 19th Katherine, actually, that he’s ever dated. Hilarious and adorable.

     

    ·    The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants involves four BFFs spending a summer apart… and the cuties they encounter.

     

    ·   The Mortal Instruments series is never short of adventure—or romance—when it comes to fierce shadow-hunter Clary Fray.

     

    ·    We’re thinking you should read Nicholas Sparks’ Safe Haven before it hits theaters on V-Day.

A while ago my boyfriend broke up with me. I was really bummed out. Recently we became good friends but then he started acting weird around me. I asked him about it and he walked away. My friends and I thought that he liked me. He told my friend that he thought that I thought he still liked me. She asked him if he did and he said no. I don't know what to think. Any advice/ help? Thanks sooo much!

MOD!
I have dance tomorrow, and after school when I get to dance, I have time to do my bun, but I like wearing it to school because I like to be able to hang with my friends before class rather than scrambling to get ready. Should I wear a bun to school? Because I also like to wear cute hair styles to school!

Hey girlie,

It is up to you whether or not you wear your bun to school! It sounds like you have more fun when you wear it to school, but if you like doing other hair styles maybe you could wear the bun some days and other styles on other days to keep a variety going!

I'm going to my first bat-mitzfah in March, but have no idea what to wear. My friend told me to 'dress formally' and if I'm wearing a dress my shoulders can't be exposed. What should I wear? (Shoes and hair included as well please)

Hey girlie,

If you are supposed to dress up, I would wear a dress (either with sleeves or with a cardi) or a nice blouse or sweater with a skirt or nice pants. Flat shoes or heels would be fine! As for your hair, check out our hair styles channel for tons of ideas Smile Have fun and congrats to your friend! http://www.girlslife.com/category/hair-styles.aspx

Hey girlie,

I would wear a nice skirt or pants with flats or small heels and a blouse or sweater, or a nice dress. I'm sure your mom will help you pick something from what you have!

I am reading The Truth About Forever right now! I recommend this book to almost every girl! I didn't choose to read it because of (ugh) romance... I LOVE the book Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen! I am not into (ugh) romance... ForeverAlone! YAY! Go girls!

ok so my bf is super socially awkward sometimes and Im always trying to start conversations but he can never carry them. Because of this I have been seriously considering breaking up with him but I don't want 2 cuz I reaaaaaaally like him. Now he just asked if I wanted to hang out alone with him4 the 1st time ever alone and I want 2 cuz it'll b a good time to talk but I'm super nervous.....I don't want it 2 b super awkward....how can I not b so nervous and avoid awkwardness

Hey girlie,

If you really like him, then it sounds like you want to stay in a relationship with him! If he is shy, try asking him open-ended questions about his life so he'll open up to you in conversation. Once he's more comfortable with you it won't be awkward!
