This is my date for homecoming!
it was last night and it was absolutely wonderful, besides the fact I only knew only one other person there since it wasn't at my high school. But anyway I had a blast and all you out there who think dances are a waste of time, go. Just go. You'll see your friends get to wear ridiculous outfits and dance in high heels in the dark! What could be better?!

oops gotta run
cya!

Jealousy

My bf likes my brother more than he likes me. When we hang out at my house, he plays video games with him, and they do a lot of other guy stuff. I feel like he's forgotten about me.

~forgotten

Dear Forgotten,
Your boyfriend probably just needs some guy time. If he doesn't have enough time with his crew cause he's always with you, than he's just letting out his inner child with your brother. He hasn't forgotten about you, he just needs some space. Try not to be jealous of him being with your brother because if he really likes you, he will always have time for you ♥

There is this girl in my school who always lies about her life. Whatever she says always just a tad better than what I said like ten minutes before. If I got a 92 on my test she got a 95. If I went to my aunts house over the weekend, she went to her aunt's house over the weekend too but they went shopping and went to see a movie and then out to eat and all this other stuff she says to impress everyone. She always feels like she has to up do me.What gives?
~Up do-er

Dear Up do-er,
this girl you speak of, do you know anything about her life at home? Is she embarrassed about her family or where she lives? Do you know if she has the money to buy new clothes and all the new techno stuff? Maybe she's jealous of your life and your stories. If her stories are meant to sound better than yours than she takes you as an example. This is a good thing, she looks up to you and you should welcome her with open arms. Invite her over and don't ever feel awkward if she doesn't invite you back. She may feel uncomfortable at first but she'll warm up soon. If you're not interested in making that close of friends with her, than just act interested in her "stories" and compliment her on them. Her temporary attitude will change over time. ♥

Don't be afraid to ask questions that have to do with hygiene.

I have these weird pinkish purplish lines on my hips. They look like spider veins but I don't know.

-Strange marks

Dear Strange marks,

These lines are stretch marks. Not the kind that pregnant women get, these are from growing. These appear when teens go through growth spurts, they are the resemblance of loss of collagen in the deep layers of skin. They are most common on your thighs, belly zone, and chest. Newer ones are lavender in color, as you get older they will fade, but unfortunately they will never totally disappear.

I really hate eating meat. The thought of animals insides really freaks me out, but my parents yell at me and force me to eat whatever they put on my plate. This usually contains steak. I hate steak the most, my mother cooks it medium rare so it still has that bloody juice in it. It REALLY grosses me out and I don't know what to do!

-Carnivore?

Dear Carnivore?,
Wanting to be a vegetarian is common. A lot of teen girls are in the same situation. The look and thought of meat grosses them out too, so you're not alone. Your parents are concerned that If you stop eating meat, you will not receive the correct amount of protein. Talk to your parent seriously about how you feel. Remind them that you can eat protein from nuts and fish too. They might still feel the same way, but maybe you just need to trust them, you can become a vegetarian when your parents feel that you are more responsible.




I hate my doctor. He's a guy, and he's really old, and things get really awkward when we talk about"stuff". What can I do?
- male doctor
Dear Male Doctor,
Talk to your mom. If you're uncomfortable about an old man knowing all about your feminine parts, find out about female docs. Ask your friends about theirs. Write down names and numbers of doctors you are interested in. If your mom notices how serious you are about the situation, you two can follow through on a plan.

Cheater

My mother is really controlling when it comes to school work. She always has to check every little thing, and she does almost all of the work on my projects. Most kids would be grateful for some one to do all their work, but I find it terribly irritating. I get credit for all these things I didn't do and when people ask me about my work, I have no idea what it is about. I feel like I'm cheating.

Dear Cheater,
I know how you feel. My mom was way controlling with my school work. Sometimes she didn't believe me when I didn't have any homework because she knew I didn't like her taking control. But with time, she let go a little. You need to talk to her about trust and responsibility. She knows you can handle the work, she just doesn't want to let you take a chance of getting a bad grade. Your mom of all people should know that you have to learn from your own mistakes, and that everybody deserves to be trusted. Talk to her and see what happens, this might just be an issue of communication.

Not a smoker

My bf has taken up smoking and when I'm around him everyone thinks I smoke too. I hate this! I don't like to kiss him anymore either. I've told him that secondhand smoking can hurt just as much as regular and I don't want anything to happen to us. He says that he is can't stop and that he loves me no matter what. How can I make him quit?

Well that just stinks. Not only has he taken up one of the most disgusting habits, but you have been pulled into it also. Remind him that smoking causes lung cancer and decreases time on your life. "Every cigarette takes five minutes off you life" is a little saying my friends and I say. You need to make it clear how much this really bothers you without sounding like his mother. If he really values you as he says he does, he might take things under consideration.

Advise

I want to prevent this from happening to other teens out there.

That way when your question is answered on my blog I can address you.
