I really like this girl that I've known for the past few months. We hang out often and when we do we both seem to have a good time. What I'm confused about is the signals that she sends. Whenever we hang out she will always say that we're friends (somehow) and ill accept it (I've been friendzoned alot, and girls always tell me that i come off as a little brother). But I swear, every time after she says I'm just a friend, she'll say or do something EXTREMELY flirty. Like she'll spout a fact about how people can tell if they'd be good together, and then she'll point out that if this was true we'd be a awesome couple. Now she's done that quite a bit and now i'm starting that I'm just being used for emotional support or some other BS. Now I totally get that it's fine to just be friends with a girl and that i shouldn't expect anything from her, but I'm getting tired of just being played by her. She's really smart and funny and cute but whenever we hang out i feel like I'm getting MAJOR mixed signals and that really bums me out. I need a course of action.

I do not now whether this guy is being creepy,or friendly, or if he just bugs me or if he likes me and that'swhat creps me out. You see, I work with this individual that's probably 30-40 years older than me. When I first started to work at this place he didn't come in as creepy at all, but after a few months of break from work he started to have a creepy feel about him when I returned. I don't know if I'm not used to someone being so nice to me, like my other coworkers are nice and friendly people too but I don't find them creepy. He is always checking up on me too see if I'm okay, or trying to strike up idle conversation with me. I don't know if this is his personality or if he's being creepy, but he also raises his eyebrows in a strange way when he sees me and saunters his way towards me, he stops whatever he's doing just to talk to me. There have been times where I have managed to avoid him for an hour or so and then he finds me and tells me he was just thinking about me. There was also this one time that I took my break at the same time he takes his break, not on purpose of course, and he saw that I was sitting by myself and sat with me. The week that that happened he told me three to four times that week that he didn't mind eating with me that time. So I don't know what to make of this, am I a bad person or do I have reason to feel this way? Thanks.

I just found out today my bestfriend is dating a girl. She don t like labels buts she s bi I guess. I mean I support her completely and she always knew this cause I sorta always knew she was I would joke about it with her and stuff all the time but she would Deni it. But the girl she is with lives in a different state and they met online. She always talks about her and stuff. I dont like the girl. I don t like her because she s all she talks about she ignores me for he and everything so I m a jealous friend I admit it but when I would point she does this out she would go it s different and I never under stood until she slept talked and told me. I was mad of course cause she thought I would leak it to everyone we know and brag about it make fun of her and it would be weird and I would hate her and all this crap she know won t happen because I completely support lgbts rights and I would never do anything like that. But what really is ticking me off is there is another girl she talks to her name is like cal or something and she s known her for a month and told her. They also met online and her I am finding this out she tells her before me. But not only that but she talks behind my back to this girl and tells her our personal conversations. She told when I joked about her and someone else and this girl convinced I was walking all over her and she needs to stick up to me and all this crap and I don t we legit just sit around and hang out and talk. Can I be mad at this?

I work out and am double majoring. I had a lot going for me, and I then I got HSV-II. Would anyone date, or just hookup, with someone using protection and being on medication?

I tried to ask out the girl that i like today. We both go to the same college and (I think) we've been hitting it off well the past few weeks. The problem is that i always feel like she is getting the idea that i just want to be friends (since i haven't made any moves). So she's been telling me how much she wants to go to a festival that's going on in the city and i took that opportunity to ask her out. She said that she really wanted to go on a certain day and i said that i can get tickets and that we could go together. That's when things went wrong. She took that and turned it around on me, saying that i shouldn't go around offering stuff like that to people, and if i do I'll be used and thrown away. This really took me aback, so i just tried to just recover ground. i cant remember what i said, but i ended up walking her to her dorm and leaving. In the end she didn't seem to realize that i asked her out and i really don't know where i went wrong. I'm a nice guy by nature and I didn't want to be aggressive about it so that may have been the issue but i don't want to come off as pushy. I just would like to know if there's a better way to ask her out.

So the beginning of this school year (I'm in 10th grade) everything has been going downhill. I'm a 15 year old girl. Im not ugly. But ever since i was in sixthe grade i have been self consiece of myself. I basically hate my school. My friends at school have completely forgotten me and only have like 5 friends. My best friend and closest family member have been annoying me and treating me like ****. Im single af. I hate my dad and i have yet to tell him i don't want to live with, and i am hating myself more and more each day. What do i do?

I'm eighteen-years-old and in junior high I was bulimic. I've learned to accept I'm on the larger size some. I eat healthy and work out, but I have a real slow metabolism I guess plus I take a lot of different medications that have certain side effects. I'm 5'6", 230 pounds, and a 42G in bra size. A good friend of mine and I have been talking about having sex for sometime now. I want to have sex with him, but I don't feel comfortable naked and I have stretch marks that I really hate. I'm not sure what to do.

In my area just about everyone is like Steve Jobs in personality and attitude . They 'kill you' over stupid stuff and pretty much just being yourself. If you try to be extra nice to win them over they rudely cut you off. I really ready to pull my freaken hair out! I ball my eyes out everyday because I have to deal with these people. What should I do?

if you promise someone of marriage and if you can't keep it, she can file a rape case on you My question is 1. how does law tell me who am I going to love & whom I am going to breakup with? I mean love happens & love ends. 2. When you are in love everything is beautiful & you trust your lover a lot and you make lots of promises So how a person is going to know what's going to happen in five or ten years later? Love ends like divorce right?

tengo 22 años y mi novio igual, tenemos 4 meses saliendo pero 3 años siendo mejores amigos. El vive solo y vemos la relacion seria que tenemos pensado casarnos en un año y medio. Lo unico malo es que dependemos de nuestros padres. El me a pedido que duerma con el pero yo le he dicho a mi madre y ella me dijo que no, que hasta que nos casaramos, que era algo muy aventado, a mi padre aun no le digo porqueyo pienso . que se enojara, No se que hacer, necesito de verdad buenos consejos. estoy a 7 meses de terminar mi carrera y mi novio igual,estudiamos lo mismo. Soy responsable en lo que hago pues nunca he salido embarazada. Creo que el dormir juntos lo relacionan con sexo, pero no siempre es asi. Ayuda con consejos para convencer a mis padres :(

I'm 36 and feel like my life is over because of my age. I had all these dreams for my life but now I feel like I'm too old to have anything to live for. I would give anything to be 20 again. I've become depressed about my age. I feel like I don't have anything to live for because I'm too old to have my dreams. I love music and when I was young (like 30 ish) I played in a band. We broke up for creative differences. I LONG to play in a band but feel like I'm too old and it would be ridiculous. I long for a boyfriend and I'm still young enough to have a need but I'm too old to be desirable and all the good men are taken. Everyone else is married with their kids and I feel like I'm destined to be an outcast. I missed my chance for marriage and family. I want a husband and child so much my heart hurts but it's too late. I'm not suicidal but I'm ready to die. I feel like I'm running down the clock until I die and that my life is over before it really began and I just pray and pray for God to take me. How do I accept my life is over? At what age is a woman too old and past her prime? Am I almost 40 by most people's standards?

I have become depressed because of a comment my stepbrother made. I have an abusive stepbrother who is trying to upset me so much that I kill myself. I'm 36 and have become depressed about my age. All the good men are taken and I feel like I missed my chance at love. Even if there were men I feel like I'm too old to be desirable. I go to my mom for comfort when I'm upset, sometimes I need her. My stepbrother came in to the kitchen yesterday when I was confiding in my mom and crying, and said that I was almost 40, that I was old, fat, a *****, etc. My stepbrother ruins my life, and I would like to kill him, but now I'm upset by these comments. They triggered this depression in me and now I feel hopeless. I had all these dreams in my life but I feel like I'm no longer young enough for them. I don't know how I can live when I'm too old to have anything to live for/ I know 36 is an age where a woman is past her best and all the men are taken, but now I feel like I'm too old to have anything to live for at all. I used to be skinny and healthy. I feel like even if I work out it's pointless because I'm too old to be healthy and skinny and even if I was, I'm still too old to be appealing. This is a separate issue, but my stepbrother ruins my life. He has some autism and I have to put up with his bs and bullying because he's "special" and I'm second because I'm normal. He makes inappropriate comments and tortures me emotionally. But this comment really got to me.

I'm in love with a schoolteacher. i've known her for 2.5 years.She taught me 2 years ago. last year we went on a small trip and she was on it, I got to know her far better. this year there was a similar trip that I went on (now I'm 15-). I realised I think I love her. SOME INFO She is roughly ten-ish years older than me, and really kind, sweet, lovely and caring and really amazing, pretty but not 'hot', and i love her. how can i deal with it to stop it or act on it when i leave in two years

I've got a friend, a year older than me, who I've known since secondary school. We had a good relationship, we went out together and laughed together. It was always great to spend time with him, both online and face-to-face. Though a few years later he'd left for another country to study. We've been keeping contact with each other for a couple of years via SN (the will to do that was absolutely mutual) but... then the connection was, like, cut off. I wrote messages to him from time to time but recieved a silence as an answer. Soon I came to realize he was studying there all the same, had fun; he still accesses to SN (he's an amateur musician so he sometimes posts music videos), I heard him coming back to our town to meet up with his former classmates... Quite a lot of years have passed since our last conversation and still no feedback. If it's so, does it mean I just should end the relationship? Even though there're many memories that connect us?

I added a girl on Facebook today and she accepted me, I find her very attractive, I really want ro talk to her but I don't know what to say without being creepy... I dont want her to think that I message ever girl because I dont.....what can I say

My husbands parents asked us to move 1000 miles to help fix up their house. My husband has never been close to his mom so I didnt know her well, prior to moving here I probably spent a total of about a week around her. We moved into an apartment on his parents property, with our 9 year old daughter. She asked us not to work so we could work on the house and she said she would pay our bills while we did this. After 4 months my husband went back to work because she didnt pay anything and we ate through our savings. She has not allowed us to do anything at her house. She takes a boat load of xanax and pill form methamphetamines (perscribed), she carries a gun and she cant control her behavior. We avoid her because she calls our daughter names like "limp dick" or "little *****", says nasty things about my husband and I. She paid for our daughter to get braces and then told us that she would have them taken off if we moved. Shes constantly aggressive, paranoid. Avoiding her was working until she started sneaking into oit apartment while we were gone. This last time, she stole my wedding ring. Theres cameras outside and you can see through the bedroom window and you see her going to my nightstand and grabbing something. The only thing missing was my wedding ring. I asked her if she had seen it anywhere and she immediately starting being defensive and saying she didnt take it (guilt as heck!) We are moving, but how do we handle her in the future?

So I'm a high school student doing a year abroad in Europe, and I'm staying with the same host family for nine months. Now they're really really sweet and generous and they come across as the "perfect" family. But it's been two months and I still feel the same way around them that I did when I first got here: tense, nervous, overly polite, awkward, formal, and uncomfortable. I don't know what to do! I've had a couple of host students before and I've always clicked with them so quickly. Help? :( I'm really shy and reserved but you'd think that over the span of two months we'd have been able to "crack" each other a bit more. I'm never able to be myself around them. My host siblings aren't really interested in me and it makes me want to cry because I really really want to get to know them but I just can't click with them. I feel like I'm in a museum and it's all my fault, because they're really open and friendly and I feel like I'm disappointing them by not being more open. I don't belong Sorry, last update, but what should I do? I'm miserable. I'm lonely in a house full of people. I can't communicate with anyone. And all of this is basically my fault. My host family knows none of this because I always keep a mask of happiness and "everything is ok!" around them, but it's not at all how I'm feeling and I'm pretty sure they know it. What should I do? I really want to get close to them, like a real family, and let my guard down more, but I don't know where to begin. Thank you <3

I always feel ugly whenever I'm around my best friend. She is just soooooooo pretty with beautiful hair, doll-like eyes and full lips. And she gets all the guys, always. But she is a very good friend. She always supports me and understands me. Once when the whole class was against me, she didn't leave me. She stood by my side. This is why I can't leave her and I love her to death. She is the bestest friend I've ever had. But the problem is she's way toooo beautiful, too beautiful to be my friend (I'm not trying to be rude and arrogant though, it's just that I feel insecure around her). And I look like an idiot at school. My hair is always spilled and messy whenever I tie it up into a ponytail but my hair turns okay whenever I let it down. But in my school, no one is allowed to let their hair down or wear make-up. Plus the bright sunlight makes all of my tiniest flaws visible. And even my crush loves my best friend. I know my best friend will never love my crush back cuz she understands the situation that I will be hurt if she does so. My crush called me ugly and chose my best friend over me :( I always try not to be jealous of my best friend but...... I just can't help it. Cuz all the people I get interested in always choose my best friend over me each and every time cuz she's just so pretty. And also today at school, a hot group of guys were talking about her beauty while ignoring me and that made me feel ugly and insecure. What do I do ? Plz help :'( Also my crush and his hot group of friends likes my best friend and they calls me ugly :( This thing broke my heart

Testicles elevate just before ejaculation and actually make direct contact with the body at the moment of truth. Interestingly, in approximately 85 percent of men the right testicle rises before the left one. At least partial elevation has to happen or, ahem, the baby will not burp, if you know what we mean.

So I sit in front of a kid in math (it s a double period we usually do math the first half and our homework the send half). Anyway since we always have spare time the kid behind me always asks for help on his homework from me instead of his friend next to him. He also studied with me a few times. His friend always tells me that he likes me and he always looks at his friend as in like a stop look. We talk sometimes and he s in some of my classes. He says I m really good at sports. So, does he like me or do you think we re just friends?

There's a guy in my school named Christopher (i like him pretty much). I was close to him sometimes and i was doing walks near his class, and one time i told my friend to look for him and tell me where is he. And he was in front of us! I didn't saw him. And then my friend told me that he understood that something "happening". The other day was raining, and i was with a male friend, just walking, and then i saw Christopher right on me to STARING at me! Not with the way i just saw a girl, with an other way...i can't explain. And we looked each other. The other day i was with two male friends and they told me a joke for fun, that joke supposed to pissed me off (just for fun, we're friends) and then i beat one of them (for fun) and Christopher was with his friend and was staring at me... What's happening?

my mom is out of town right now but she comes home on monday and i need serious answers BEFORE monday because by monday she will have taken my laptop, phone, tablet, and any means of communication. please help me the reason she will be taking all that stuff away is because i was friends with this guy in secret because she won't let me be friends with him because of everything i said above^

i still love a girl after 1 year, She was never my girlfriend but she was a good friend who I fell for. we don't talk as much anymore (long story)nothing bad happened between us.we used to be so close, and she was sooo friendly to me, she even let me kiss her once ...but now I just think about her everyday. ive told her I miss her but she's not rude about it, she just says " its sweet and that I will find someone better" like I cant let goo of her no matter how much I try..... I just wish there was something I could do to bring us close again. I know I sound silly but ever since I met her I felt like this girl was something special to me.. we haven't talked in a month and I feel like trying but I dont want to annoy her....what should I doo?

How do I set the tone for a brighter future because right now I'm a boring person. I I'm around a boring person all the time which is my husband, sweet loving and kind but boring as heck...He don't like to do anything I just can't understand that. All I want sometimesa is a little walk in the park with him just to talk about nothing, but instead I end up going bymyself all the time, Im alone to much I don't really have that many friends. The people that I do know is not genuine and I don't feel comfortable around them so that's out. I need suggestions

I m 22 years old and I have a 32 year old boyfriend been together 5 years. We have 2 Children together 3 year old and 3 week old. I went through my boyfriends friend and I only usually find porn on his phone and this time I found Craigslist adds he has been replying to them and seeking them. I don t know what to do or what to say.. I did look through his phone.. I feel bad for that.

Right now I am a caretaker to both my mother and uncle, who are struggling in their own ways with sicknesses. I receive help from family members but it's very minimal as most of them have their own lives and affairs to worry about. I know for certain that I am clinically depressed--I'm eating a lot at times or not eating at all; I've developed a sudden liking for smoking; I feel worthless and melancholy 24/7; I stay up all night wondering how I am going to get by each day/week. I'm emotionally and physically drained from tending to them, going to work full time, and going to school. I'm exhausted--so much so, that I feel like getting up and walking out, but I know that would make me the bad person and I'll jeopardize their well-being. They rely on me too much. How can I tell them nicely that I wish to check into rehab for depression without getting them worked up? They never take no for an answer. And they always make me feel guilty. I cannot go on like this any longer. I feel as if I'm very near to my breaking point and all hell will break loose and I'll definitely become the bad guy. How do I go about telling them that I am sick too and in need of help?

I have a huge problem now. I am 16 years old, and my boyfriend is 17 (almost 18). Being an idiotic teenager I am, I thought it was a good idea to sneak my boyfriend over after school. I had a half day yesterday (my parents didn't know), so he came home with me and we got very sexual. Well, we didn't go completely all the way because we knew the consequences of unprotected sex and we didn't want to risk it. Right as we were about to get dressed, my dad came home all of a sudden. He knew I was home and I quickly got up to get dressed and hid my boyfriend in my closet. My dad came up to my room and opened the closet and told him to get out. He ran out, and yelled at me and told me how stupid I was to even think about bringing him home without their permission. He said that one minute I was gold from all of the activities I do and the grades I get in school, but the next minute I'm a piece of sh!t for the decisions I make. My mom came home and knew what happened, and told me if I ever got pregnant, they're going to make me live with my boyfriend to see if it's true that I he'll give me everything I ever wanted. I of course felt ashamed of myself and told them we didn't go all the way, but they didn't want to hear it. I got so defensive for my boyfriend too because they called him and his family pigs for living in an apartment and that they don't value their education. In an instant, everything was taken away from me. No freedom or trust. What can I do now? I'll also add, that I agree what I did was despicable. I made an awful decision, I really don't know what I was thinking. Now, I'm afraid that I won't be able to see my boyfriend anymore. It was my idea in the first place. My boyfriend even told me that we should NOT pull that off and wait until the afternoon to be together. But, I was selfish and obstinate, and still decided to have him over. My parents given me countless opportunities, and I always ruined them. In the past, I suffered from self-harm, anxiety, and anorexia. In those times, they lost plenty of trust in me and it took a good while to rebuild it. Now, I did this to them. I disrespected them and myself. They even told me before not to do that or I will face the consequences. Well, now I am facing them for sure. I can't do any more school activities, sports, I'm not allowed out with my friends, I got my phone taken away I got my car taken away, and they have hit me to get the sense back in me and tell them everything. I deserve all of this though, from all of the damage I have done. I'm unsure on what to do but to wait and hope that things will get better.

There's this boy that I've been seeing for quite some time. My parents know about him, but never met him yet. I never brought up the fact that he has selective mutism. It hasn't really dawned on me that I haven't told them until recently, because him being mute hasn't affected our relationship yet, if ever. (He hasn't spoken to me yet). I will tell my parents at some point, yes. I just don't know at what point in my relationship with him should I tell them? His mutism hasn't been a big deal for me, but I suppose it could be for my parents/others.

My husband is 67 years old. I always have felt that communication between the couple is important and not to include outsiders except a therapist. Some of the topics he has put me down in is - says I came from a poor background, says I don't load the dishwasher correctly, says he preferred someone with small breasts (I have large). He finds any and everything negative to run me down. We have been married 5 1/2 years. I have talked to him about this many times and he knows how I feel. I don't want to divorce him - but it has taken a toll on my self esteem and I'm insecure. Any thoughts on how I can cope?

So, last night I was at the 7th and 8th grade middle school dance. I had overheard something that really hurt me. I bursted out in tears and I couldn't stop crying. My crush came up to me and asked me what was wrong, and he asked me this a couple times. He came up to me a second time and asked again. There was also a kid who had asked me out that night, and my crush asked me what I said (like, did I say yes or no) and then he laughed and smiled when I said I said no to the kid that asked me out. He has a girlfriend but he has told me he liked me before. He told me about 2 weeks ago that it was going to take him awhile to get over me. But do you think now that he has a girlfriend he is over me? Or do you think what happened last night means he still likes me?
