Subtlety can be the best bet to avoid hurt feelings, but it doesn’t always get the message across. First off, don’t flirt back. Drop hints, like talking about how great it is that you can be friends (key word) with your bro’s buds. If he doesn’t get it? Be more direct or ask your brother to nicely clue him in. Tell him you like him as a friend, nothing more. If you’re worried about how he’ll take it, tell him you have a rule against dating your brother’s friends.

Hey! why are you happy that your bff is leaving? Is it because of the guy? Try to get over him and just be his friend because in the end your girl friends are more important than any boy. xoxoashley

Mod! My bf is being too physical. Last night we were at a party and he started rubbing my boobs. then we went to my house and he tried to take my cloths off.I really lik him. We have been going out for 2 years. Do you think Im ready for "this" type of relationship?
Hey! It is not my place to say if you are ready for a serious relationship. You need to decide for yourself if you are ready or not. tell your boyfriend that you dont think that you are ready yet, and you will let him know if you are. It is completely up to you and you need to make the decision for yourself. xoxoashley

Ok, so one of my friends found out I liked him and he's avoiding me. My friend talked to him about it and he said that he's known me since 3rd grade and doesn't want to "mess anything up or make things weird." I want to tell him that it's ok that he just wants to stay friends but it's NOT ok for him to ignore me! What do I do??

Posted by: glamourgirl4 on 5/8/2008 7:22:38 PM
Mod, I just have a question. I broke up with my boyfriend about a month ago. We were together for a while and I guess closer then I thought at the time. At first I was just in a sort of daze. Like I couldn't believe what I'd done and I didn't know what to think of it. Then it hit me and I was alittle sad. Some people cry when stuff like that happens but I never have. Then I just pushed my feelings away and ignored the pain. We haven't really talked much because I don't like to talk to him now. He was cheating on my with SEVERAL other girls. I know I shouldn't care and I tell myself "he's not worth anything, why bother being sad." But he was my first REAL boyfriend. Like we went on dates and stuff. He'd hold my hand and talk to me, we talked a lot. And he told me he wanted to kiss me. Just this week, the feeling came back. I'm trying to push it down but he looks at me all the time. He has gentel eyes. I need to let go though. Please, do you have any tips to help me move on? How can I feel better and stop hurting?
You're so right that he's not worth it! But it is also easier said than done. Just try to keep yourself busy, and get involved in some activities at school! Your friends are GREAT for keeping you busy too and letting you vent! <3 Jaime

Heyy Mod!*Please Anwser This* Ok so this is actually pretty cool way to get with your crush. So in my English class we are doing scense from Shakespeare, I am Juliet and my crush is Romeo!!! So next week we have to perform our scenes, as of right now im not 100% sure we are both ready. 2moro we are working on the scenes but I also was planning to get his number so that we maybe could work on it over the weekend. But I am not sure we one really need to and two if I would be together with him just to hang out or to actually work on it. But I think he might like me back too!!! Here are the signs that he has given me: *He is always staring at me *He hardly talks to me when we are working on the scene but when we do it is either like funny stuff that happened the night b4 or its a few words about wat we want to do with the scene *He volenteered to play Romeo, we did the audition together he said to me that our teacher was making him do Romeo against his will, then after class I heared him say to the teacher that he enjoyed doing it and that he wouldn't mind doing it again *He teases me a little when we talk outside of class Might he like me back??? Sorry this is soo long but I really want to know if he likes me and I don't want to ask him...and I don't want a friend to ask him either??!
Hey girl, I'm not sure but it sounds like he might! <3 Jaime

MOD, I am really unconfident. and people feel bad for me. And i'm scared thats the only reason why my crush is nice to me. Example-Today @ school my crush and his 3 friends helped me do flag, when we were almost done he said "you can go inside." but when i went to the door he said "you don't have too go in." What should i do to build my confidence up?? and what should i do about my crush feeling bad for me??
Think about what you're good at and why you're good at it. I bet you can find more than just one. Realize that this makes you special and learn to appreciate you!...Renee

***MOD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP*** im soo confused right now. =[ i like my bgf. im pretty sure he likes me too but i have tons of evidence on both sides. ok so first heres the good evidence: *his friend pointed to him and said "look its [my name]!" (people in my school do this when somebody likes somebody else) *i WAS #5 in his top 8 for quite a while *we talk online all the time *we walk home together a lot *hes sooo easy to talk to *when my friends told him "we know you like her" he said "i have no idea what youre talking about..." *his other friend said "he said he doesnt like her but i think he does" *he asked me for my number *he asked me if i wanna hang out at this lake everybody in my skool hangs out at tomorrow =] bad evidence: *he moved me down to #9 in his top =[ *he told his other OTHER friend "i just honestly dont like her" =[ ok so obviously theres wayy more evidence that he DOES like me, but im still sooo confused. and if he does like me, then why would he move me down in his top?PLEASE ANSWER NO OTHER MODDS ARE AND MY COMMENTS ARENT POSTING =[
Dont worry about top friends. That is not a sign of how someone feels about you. If you guys are hanging out and talking, that is way more important and a better indicator of how he feels.

@#$#%$%^MOD#$@%#$%$#% im in 8th grade and theres a kid in my grade whos suposed to be in 10th. today i found out that he likes me but hes baaaaaaaaaaaaad news. he drinks, smokes, and plus he got kicked out of his old school because he was touching girls inapropriatly.(srry i cant spell) but im soo freaked out about this. i despise this kid nd im afraid if i tell him i dont like him he will do something (he reallly violent tooo) HELP!!!!!!
Girl, sometimes people get bad reputations because of the things they do. If this kid really is bad news and you're afraid he's crushing on you, try not to give him any inviting signals. It may turn out that he's a really nice guy, but you'll never know unless you talk to him. If he makes you feel uncomfortable, tell someone, but there's no use driving yourself crazy over something that hasn't happened yet. Be good! Abbie

@$@#$MOD@#$@#% theres this kid in my class who likes me. im in 8th grade nd hes supposed 2 be in 10th. he baaaaad news. he drinks smokes gets in fights all that stuff. but the worst thing is he got kicked ouot of his old school because he was touching girls inapropriatly. im sooo afraid. if i tell him i dont like him he might hurt me or sumthin. and i cant really tell anyone about this either so can u please help????
Posted by: pafh5 on 5/9/2008 1:11:25 PM
****MOD**** My BGF acts different around me than my other friend. She says that he likes her and that he would be jelous of any boy she liked. He treats me different. I have known him since 5th grade. I always make him laugh because I have a good sense of humor. but then my friend always tries to make my BGF laugh and it works. Its like shes competing with me for a friend who she says she doesnt like. I am really confused because my BGF always hangs pretty close to me if you know what i mean. im really confused plz help thanks MODS i know that i can alwayss count on you guys
It sounds like you guys have been friends for a long time. He is probably confused on how he feels about you and because you two are such good friends he may be afraid to hurt you. Talk to him and see how he is feeling, and try to make things like they used to be. Talking to him is the best thing to do.

Mod, How can I get over my ex-boyfriend? We broke up a month ago and I was fine, but just now I'm starting to hurt inside. I don't know how I'm supposed to feel at all! When my friends break up they cry their eyes out but I haven't shed a tear. I just feel lost, and when he looks at me I drown in his big brown eyes. I'm not getting back together with him because he did some things to deserve that dumping I surved up on him (he cheated, a lot!) but I feel empty now. Again, how can I get over him?
Sometimes it helps to just let your emotions loose and feel your feelings. Get together with your friends and eat ice cream and vent or cry or just tell them how you feel. They can help you through this. After that, try looking for a new cutie who will treat you well. -lauren

It's not bad, but don't let things go farther than you are comfortable with. -lauren

Mod- I was supposed to go to a movie tonight with a really really really good guy friend of mine. last time we went, my parents went with me but sat on the other side of the theater. This time, since we were going with his younger brother and his brothers friends they were gonna let me go alone. His mom was gonna pick me up and everything. Now, they won't let me go at all. He's moving this summer and the only time ill see him before that is at school and stuff. I only have like 2 weeks left to spend with him and my parents don't want me to. My mom even says he is really polite and nice and stuff. How can i convince them to let me go tonight? HELP!!
Hey girl, maybe you should talk to your parents about it again and ask them if they'll go to the theatre again. That'll show them how much hanging out with him means to you and maybe they'll let you go alone!~Kristin
Posted by: dance_chick_2013 on 5/10/2008 9:05:54 AM
Thanks Kirstin ! Elle, Hey! I know it's always a drag having a friend who you really don't want around. Trust me been there done that. When she comes to school, you shuold always be nice. But she might meet new people, and not cling to you or any of your friends. Just becasue she has a lot of classes with you doesn't mean that she will ultimately be your BFF.... Have her try new things in your school too, it will be a great oppurtunity to have her get to meet new people and maybe she will follow her own path GOOD LUCK!
