Open Question: why does this girl do this (please help me)?

So I like this girl and she likes me but I don't understand why she sometimes calls me dummy like when I tell her a joke and or something silly that I did she calls me you dummy. for example one time i told her a story about the first time i got a cell phone and how the second day i lost it and she laughed and said you dummy. another time was when i took her out to bowling and it was my turn to bowl so as i was getting ready to bowl my shoes were untied and i fell and dropped the ball and she said you dumb ***. sometimes i tease her and she says shut up! in a giggly sort of way I don't get offended I just want to know why she does this. she doesn't do it with other guys that i know of. sometimes i think she doesn't really like me. if she is flirting with me how do i flirt back and what can be other things to look out for we go to the park almost everyday but she gets bored really easy what are some things that we can do. i want to ask her to be my girlfriend but every time i try to i freeze up and cant say anything to her this never happened to me before usually when i see a girl that i like i ask her out right then in there but i cant do it with this one. sometimes she really pisses me off because she still talks to her ex boyfriend and i tell why she says were just friends but when i talk to my ex's she gets pissed and i just tell her were just friends which makes her more mad. today i broke my finger and when she found out she texted me and said so what happened this time mister after i told her she said you dummy ps another thing that kind of bothers me and i know this is a stupid thing to be bother by but she says i love u to her other guy friends when they leave and she never says it to me when i have known her longer than they have more

Open Question: I was charged with a misdemeanor (shoplifting) and can't afford a lawyer, how do I go and see the PD for help?

I'm 18 and have never been arrested in my life! Seriously, before last week I have never been arrested or even recieved a traffic ticket! I have to admit that shoplifting was the dumbest and most immature mistake of my life, and it haunts me everyday. I just graduated high school this year and about to start college in a couple of weeks. I never saw myself as the type of kid who would get themselves in deep trouble. In high school my peers always saw me as the smart kid who always did his work and spent hours studying on-end, basically the "goodie-two-shoes." I have never drank alcohol or smoked, even though I have been offered and pressured to do it, I knew that it would never benefit me so I always turned it down. Towards the end of my senior year I was even nominated for valedictorian. But if anybody knew about my arrest or the crime I committed it would completely crush me. That's why I haven't even told my family about it. The officer who arrested and booked me wrote me a citation for my court date and told me my rights before he let me go. He explained to me that since I'm newly legal, cooperated well, never been arrested before, and have a squeaky clean driving record that the worst thing that could happen to me in court was to pay a fine, and the least worst thing that could happen was being put on probation. The officer was very polite and even joked with me. He gave me tips for my court date: dress like I was going to church (dress pants or khakis with a dress shirt or clean polo), address the judge as "your honor", and straight-out admit in court that I am a good kid who comes from a priveleged family, with a clean criminal and driving record before this happened and that my crime was a stupid mistake. Is there anyway this could be lifted off my record so I could be clean again? He even told me that I could go to court without a lawyer, especially since I can't afford one, I'm a first time offender, and don't want to tell my parents because it would just break their hearts. Is going to court by myself a good idea for this minor misdemeanor? I still feel that I should get a lawyer but I can't afford one at all! How would I go abouts going to the Public Defender to help me so I don't look like a helpless wreck in court? Any comments or opinions on what else I should do? Any words would be of much help! more

Open Question: Death row Joke! Is he?

There was a German, an Italian and a Redneck on death row. The warden gave them a choice of three ways to die: to be shot, to be hung, or to be injected with the AIDS virus for a slow death. So the German said, "Shoot me right in the head." (Boom, he was dead instantly). Then the Italian said, "Just hang me." (Snap, he was dead.) Then the Redneck said, "Give me some of that AIDS stuff." They gave him the shot, and the redneck fell down laughing. The guards looked at each other and wondered what was wrong with this guy. Then the Redneck said, "Give me another one of those shots," so the guards did. Now he was laughing so hard, tears rolled from his eyes and he doubled over. Finally the warden said, "What is wrong with you?" The Redneck replied, "You guys are so stupid, I'm wearing a condom!" more

Open Question: Included while being excluded?

So, I have a lot of "friends" or people that I get along with. From everything I've heard, everyone likes me, and there is not one person who has a problem with me. I have a circle of friends that I hang out with as well. To anyone else who somewhat knows me, they'd think I fit in with that circle of friends and with everyone else. But to me, it feels as though there's like a little glass barrier between myself and everyone else. I can connect with people, but only to an extent. When I'm with said friends, there's always this little feeling that I am on the outside. There's all these stupid little inside jokes they reminisce about together, and all these conversations that just don't quite include me. It's tough to explain. Am I just overanalyzing, or is there really something missing in all of these relationships? more

Open Question: why girls do this to guys?

Lets say I talk to this girl about an NBA game and she said what was the joke. I told her another girl said this game was a random thing and a stupid text.

I need a lot of answersJust answer the question should I be very concerned yes or no more

Open Question: Where can I find a site that actually has intelligent hockey fans?

The hockey section at Yahoo Answers is a joke. Only 10% of you that ever posted here actually know your hockey while the rest of you are clueless. Seriously! I can't believe that so many of you here don't take the proper time to do any research and believe everything you read in any hockey news publication. Hopefully those of you who don't know hockey here will get banned from this site. Here are some of the uneducated here in the hockey section theLau ( "I'll let you know when it happens. Common Sense) Mike T ( He never posts any questions, a sign of a self-proclaimed know it all) T-Bone 1246( Thinks Pittsburgh has loyal fans and they never filed for bankruptcy) Scott ( Philadelphia Cryers ) All of the Detroit Bandwagon fans. Poor NIPS and viphockey who are true fans that have to put up with that stupid blind Red Wing Nut homerism.Chosen One: Your right! more

Open Question: I masturbate to cows?

Whenever I'm masturbating I cumm in like 10 seconds when I picture myself with a cow. I go crazy when I imagine sticking my johnny in its teethless mouth( I know they have teeth, but I fantasize they don't) and then grab it by the horns and deepthroat it with gross and anger as it licks my balls with its long wetty tongue while I call the cow dirty names as it moos in pleasure. It's far from by biggest fantasy and I have never told ANYONE this in my entire life. I'm not stupid and I know its wrong to have this fantasy...I'm not joking PLEASE believe me. As a matter of fact I have became horny as hell writing this. It IS becoming an obsession. I came here to seek a little advice.... Do you guys think I will eventually lose this fantasy when I am no longer a teenager? Any advice on how to control myself? Please help!!!!!! more

Open Question: What do you call those people who act differently when peers are around?!?

They will talk to you equally one moment, but as soon as their peers walk in the room, they'll go to whatever length to act, I guess "cool" in front them. This usually involves using you at the butt of their jokes. As soon as someone leaves the room, the subject matter instantly focuses on that person which left, which is usually negative. Even though, moments ago, they had a different opinion when they were talking to me. Then as soon as those peers leave, its back to talking to me as before as if nothing happened or I was too stupid to notice. Can someone explain to me in detail what the hell are going through these people's minds? Are they weak-minded or have a weak personality or something? Is the price of being accepted by every human being so high, that they have to lie to themselves and contradict everything they do and say? Help me understand this! more

Open Question: how to cut a crew cut shirt?

hey, i have to use my brothers shirt tomorrow for some reason, and its a crew neck lol, and it looks like im choking. i look like a joke haha. is there any way i can cut it so it looks normal? stupid question, yes, but im not going out like that. thank you. more

Open Question: How to make a Cancer guy my friend?

I want to know him more but it is so difficult. I am so shy not because that I am really a shy person but because I like him and because it is an embarrassment to like someone you work with. A friend of mine told me I shouldn't like a guy from my work, although that's a part time job for me as I am still studying but still probably it makes people uncomfortable if they find out their colleague likes them. He is really helpful when I ask him something or when I need assistance, he is kind and polite. I want to meet him as a friend to add him on Facebook and stuff but I would never even ask for his Facebook because it would give an instant indication I want something from him or I will put him off me or at least I would make myself vulnerable and him uncomfortable. Do you think there's a way I become friends with him but a way which does not make me show I like him, just that I would be glad to have a friend like him? When he waves to me sometimes for bye I feel like wow, I want that moment to continue forever. But I feel really sad for some stupid things like him laughing at silly jokes for a mistake I have done, or for example when he ignored me and didn't say goodbye. I have to confess I do ignore him sometimes because I feel so shy, my hands were trembling when he passed to me a card, I looked down at the floor when I pass trough him and I give half smile sometimes but I do not want him to ignore me. I feel so afraid of him to read my body language and find out something's going on. Do you think I might make him feel uncomfortable, we work at the same place after all. I am doing my job and trying to give my best and I do not see him most of the time as he is in another section but I interact with him as well. What you think about the situation and how to try naturally to be friends with him, if that is possible? more

Open Question: I think I am being abused what should I do?

So I'm 16 an I live with my mum and brother, my mum suffers from post-natal depression and takes prescription drugs for it. Quite often now my mum has her days when shes feeling down an when shes down it can last for maybe two weeks sometimes. So when my mums down I'm responsible for doing the cooking cleaning and Ironing and washing and washing up. When my mums down theres never any food in the house and as she won't usually leave the house there is no money for food. Or if she is down but shes leaving the house she'll go out with my brother and get dinner an when I ask her questions like why shes going back to bed she tells me to mind my own business and how none of this is my business. Shes never grateful for me looking after everything when shes ill and shes quick to point out the stuff that has not been done. Also shes called me selfish because I've said when I'm 18 I want to move out. She also keeps messing with my head, she keeps telling me I had annorexia when I was younger an I'm still in denial about it but family members have told me this is not true an I'm pretty sure its not but she keeps bringing it up as if she has something to hold over me. I bought a rabbit with my birthday money an she told me I could no longer be trusted to get money so I'd get no more birthday or christmas money. Then today shes told me I'm stupid an she was just joking but jokes are meant to be funny and when she was saying it to me she was deadly serious. Shes also told me that once I start getting my EMA £30 a week for going to college given by the government shes not giving me money anymore and the EMA I will use to get everything I need including clothing but shes still going to be claiming child benefits for me which shes gonna keep for herself. Also the last few days shes been particularly down an theres been no food in the house an her an my brother have been going out for dinner, I've eaten so little that when I woke up this morning my belly was inwards and when i breathed out it didnt stretch out. When I confront her about it she says I have birthday money so I can buy food with that an she doesn't understand why I'm complaining. Also she keeps saying how I'm going to come in with a black mans baby (cos she knows I can't stand racism and it makes me upset) and also shes always asking who I've been with because she doesn't trust me and shes suprised I've not already had a baby. Also my brother can stay at a friends for a night or two and its ok but if I stay out I must have been at a boys house having sex when I ask her why she lets my brother (13) stay out without asking questions she says cos she knows what hes been up to. And any time I say anything to my family about it she has a go at me saying I'm going off telling people shes abusing me. What should I do? I've had enough of all these mind games I just don't know what to do anymore.I'm from the UK more

Open Question: Am I a mermaid and how can I be one?

Hi i REALLY want to be a mermaid. I have done about 7 spells out of desperation. Can you people please give me some proven ways to be one? Mermaids are welcome to also express there opinions and tips. I am completely open to ANY tips and helpful advice. Here are some side effects: 1. I am an amazing swimmer who loves being in the water 2. I have very dry skin and I think it's getting more dry (not sure if that's a side effect) 3. I have mermaid dreams 4. Sometimes when I drink water, my ears hurt of feel pressured 5. I highly prefer to cross my legs 6. I get hot and dehydrated quickly Respond and tell me what you think. I know that's not a lot of side effects, but that's probably because I have been doing the spells for the past 5 days or so. I am also aware that some people don't get any side effects, so that makes me happy. And lastly, if you are a nonbeliever in mermaids or if you are here just to be rude to me, DO NOT ANSWER. Every question I ask gets nailed with stupid jokes from amateurs. Please don't be one. more

Open Question: Any reason why men seem to hate my guts (no joke..kinda long, but please answer for real thanks)?

just talked with a guy who a yr ago asked me out, but I said no b/c I wasn't ready. We stayed friends and now I like him. I flirted, and he became distant. So I asked him about it and he said he felt like I was getting too close and he didn't want to lead me on, but finds me very attractive and likes me as a friend but is not ready to date and said he doesn't want me to be his rebound (code for he doesn't want me). I told him the door was open, he thanked me for that, but no matter I still want to be friends and have no awkwardness and he agreed. he didn't say he was interested or not, Yet, aren't these all excuses for I'm not interested? A guy would date if he liked you no matter what, right? oh and when i told him one reason i didn't say yes to him before was b/c i wasn't sure of his intentions and he gave a slight laugh. why? Also, he KEEPS LOOKING AT ME and then looks away quickly when i catch him, but when we talk he barely looks me in the eyes now...if he doesn't like me why?oh and i emailed him about something and he didn't respond nor to my texts...he tries hard to ignore me and make sure he shows me he's not interested and it hurts. i've been through this with guys, which is why i try hard to keep a guard up! I just want to move on now, how do I do it? It all started in highschool when my guy friend and I became super close. I thought he was too good for me eventhough I liked him, so never told him, but looking back I think he liked me too (he gave me gifts and back massage once) and said "you don't like me, do you?" when I was in a bad mood one day. For some reason he became distant and stopped talking to me...I took it as he didn't like me and we stopped talking, When I wanted to reconcile he would never speak to me and ignored my emails and calls. In college, the guys I like end up not liking me back, but then I find out other guys liked me when i thought non did. One guy friend of my best friend would always ask her where I was and he told her I was pretty and smart. I was too stupid and had low self esteem and couldn't put two and two together. I figured if a guy wanted me he'd tell me/chase me. He stopped talking to me to and when I was ready to try coming out of my shell he ignored me, got a girlfriend and now we don't talk. He hates me too i guess. I was so shy and couldn't flirt. I'm much more confident now, but still have stuff to work on. Bottom line, how do I stop this cycle of men hating me? I'm actually really nice/compassionate and caring and would be a great supportive girlfriend, but maybe come off as a ***** b/c i don't talk to them? more

Open Question: this is extremely long. i'm sorry. haha boy problems? and friend problems..?

okay. so this is what happened, my friend, welll pretty much best friend (who lives in a different state than me) dated this dude, and he broke up with her 5 days after he asked her out. so, i yelled at him like a normal friend would, (and this was about 2 years ago.). but then me & that dude started talking, became friends, and sooon got REALLY close. and i've NEVER meet these people in my life, even though i've known that girl for about 5 years. alright so, soon i began to like legit, falll in love with him. and he said he was falling in love with me tooo. he was soooo sweet to me and just talking to him made my whole day betterr. but obviously my friend didn't know because she was still friends with him and she obviously liked him because she would never stop talking about him. but then on likeee, august 2nd. he asked me out, and i obviously said yes. i was SOOOO happpyy, because i really liked him, even though i never met him... stupid, right? okay so we were dating for about 3 weeks and it was all gooddd, we didn't really fight.. i just sorta got mad at him because he would never text me, or talk to me. but forr like the past 2 days, my friend was EXETREMELY pissseeed. and no one knew why. and she didn't know that we were going out because no one told her. but then she started talking to me, and she said "okay, i'm going to tell you something but you can't tell ANYONE. okay?" so i said okay. and then she said, "i'm dating nick, (thats not really his name but let's just pretend it is.) and i've been dating him since like.. july 8th.. but i didn't tell anyone cause i didn't know what they would think, and i was scared you would be mad cause it seems like you like him.." and as soon as i saw that i started balling my eyes out and i obviously callled my other best friendd(that lives here, ahah) and i was crying and screaming and i couldn't stop, he honesly BROKE MY HEART. i know i've never met him, but like.. he told me how much he loved me and shit ALL THE TIME. and when he asked me out he was FUCKING DATING MY BEST FRIEND, like wtf? but then me and my friend got in A HUGE FIGHT, and she was telling me how when he asked me out it was a joke, and i didn't believe her. i was mad at him thoughhh, i told him we were done and he asked why, and i showed him what she said.. and he told me it wasnt true.. this is what he said, "so you're going to break up with me because some girl that is like in love with me told you something that's not even true? kelly i wouldn't do that to you, i love you so much and i promise you i mean that.. i wouldn't to that to you, you should know that... ughhh.. bye." and then he signed offf. but i don't believe him AT ALL because my friend wouldn't lie about something like that, and she sent me things he was saying to her. and then i was talking to his friend andd i said "was he legit dating me..? or was this some kind of joke?" and his friend said "you never dated him.. wtf?" and i said "yeah i did.. didn't he tell you? he said he did.." and then his friend told me that he asked girls out as jokes before, and he only does it to see their reaction... so yeah, i'm prettty heart broken. but im soo mad at him.. so should i just like, delete him and be done with him? or should i talk to him about it.. (i'd really rather not do this, because i'm so sick of him i could pukee. ahhaha) and like.. what should i do with my friend? cause last night after we got in a fight, we said sorry to each other for fighting over some gay aass boy who cheated on both of us, but it's still awkward between us.. so tell me what you'd do if you were meee.. and please don't tell me i'm stupid for liking this dude that lived in another state cause i know i am. and my friends already gave me this big talk about it.. and sorry for it being so long, i just had to tell you guys the whole story.. bahha thankss.<333 more

Open Question: Why do christians mistake heathenism for satanism?

I know a few people practicing the modern day version of Asatrú, the main religion of the ancient Norse. It is a religion who's origins are dated back waaaay~ before the oldest recording of anything Christian - and STILL, they all get so much bull**** from you christians, for the stupid reason of practicing 'satanism' of all things. Someone even got accused for wearing 'unholy symbols' because he had runes written on his t-shirt. I can sort of see how this could be called 'ungodly', as they do not follow the christian god. And while i think it's dumb beyond any reasonable levels, I can also see how you'd think that heathenism itself could be the work of Satan, made to trick us away from the rainbowy goodness and all that... But there is absolutely nothing in Heathenism that mentions Satan. Any heathen who believes in him in addition to the Asatrú are often considered a joke. So why on Earth do you morons keep calling us Satanists? Just wondering...@ Geezah: I agree that satanic neopagans should be considered a sad joke, but you seem to mix up the Church of Satan with the other, very different branches of Satanism... I’m guessing you’re LaVeyan, if not, feel free to shoot me, so you should already know that the satanic bible was written by LaVey himself – no sooner than 1969 as the outlines for the LAVEYAN ideology rather than Satanism on a whole. I hardly call this ‘the definition of what Satanism is all about’. Maybe from your perspective, but definitely not from Christians. more

Open Question: Did I do the right thing? I hit a gay kid in 7th grade?

This is not a joke or made up in any way. Yes sure I like to ask and answer questions in a very stupid way here on yahoo but Im also a fun guy I mean thats just me. But I assure this is very true and very serious. There really is nothin I can do for you to believe me so youre gonna have to take my word for it. Before I start I want to state that today Im a homophobe because of this incident in the past. Im no gay basher or even support the whole gay bashin thing cos after all they are human beings. But Im just tryin to get everybody here to see my side of the story. This happened in South Africa JHB. Its grade 7 and Im writin the final english exam in 1998. Mr Hartman the moronic retard sits the 1 kid that used to verbally sexually harrass me throughout all years at school right next to me. We had to share the freakin table. Like I said hes always had made stupid comments towards me and all other crazy manouvres about tryin to grab my nuts. Ive told the teachers and warned them that this kid was always botherin me. In 1 occasion my phis ed teach had to literally chase him out of the field due to his channanigans. The day of the final exam came and out of nowhere after all that crap he literally grabs my entire package. So I stand up and punch him in the face throwin him off his chair. The teacher screams at me and kicks me right out of the class where I get 0 for the final year and primary school end english exam. I know it doesnt matter now but this is still somethin that is botherin me until today so Im takin this poll. Did I do the right thing or not. The other funny thing is that everytime I posted this incident on the gays and lesbians category my account gets magically suspended as if Im not the freakin victim here.Obviously I did the right thing in postin this question here. I mean in the gays and lesbians category the only thing people see typed is I hit a gay kid in 7th grade I hit a gay kid in 7th grade I hit a gay kid in 7th grade I hit a gay kid in 7th grade.I didnt get violated ok? I never got raped schheeeesh. more

Open Question: I am a failure in life. Help?

I feel like I am a failure at life. I never do anything right and I hardely ever succeed in ANYTHING. It's pretty rare when I do something right or succeed in anything at all. I am really stupid and I very untalented. I do theater and I dance and play in the band, but I'm not good at all. I practice SO HARD and have been at it all for 6 or 7 years, but I still suck, and have been told on multiple occasions that I suck. I also suck in school because everyone else is smarter than me and I just really don't understand anything that's going on. My friends don't support me at all. I am completely ignored by everyone in school and no matter how hard I try to make friends and talk to people, they never just seem to like me at all. I have a hard time making friends, so I don't have very many, which is also very hard for me. The only person who is my true friend who really loves me is my mom. There, I said it. I am constantly teased for being short, ugly, stupid, untalented, and just being a failure, and no one backs me up for it. I am such a huge joke to everyone and everything and I feel like I'll never succeed. Help me! I'm such a huge failure! more

Resolved Question: Do you think a "certain segment" of our population is going to riot when Obama is booted from office in 2012?

=========== ***UPDATE*** =========== Last time I asked this question, I said I was going to embarrass and call out the people stupid enough to use the "Race Card" I am guessing "Reporter Gurl" ( http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=AoEWw89wG6e8Ng6epOctSuvY7BR.;_ylv=3?show=qbWeVo7taa ), didn't understand this. She responds by saying I am a racist and a "White Cracker Hoe", OK can anyone else see whats funny about what she did? Well in case you can't... She is claim racism yet at the same time making racial slurs. One of the brighter people in this world, HUH? Well to make a long story short, all views are welcomed, even those of Obama's ilk, but please; and again I say... repond with valid answers and if you don't agree maybe we can debate your response. Dont be like little "Miss Thang!" up there and make yourself sound stupid by doing the very thing you claim is evil. Thank you, and I return you to your regularly scheduled question.... ========================== Like the riot in 1992 and the hundreds before and after it... will this "certain segment" of our population riot again and then blame their crimes on White people... again...? I am worried that when Obama is booted in 2012 that this too is going to be used as just another excuse to steal things like all these other times. It literally makes me sick when I hear people talk about it and say that its a show of frustration with being kept down by the "man" and that its justified in many different ways. Well I put it to you... If anyone and I do mean anyone out there can prove that just one person in any race riot ever, that participated in one for any other reason then to Rape, Steal, or Kill... I will give up my Republican card, shave my head and carry Obama's baby. I fear this is an inevitable thing we are going to face in 2012, yet I am wanting to hear what you all think? Keep your answers valid and maybe we can debate them, Thank you and I await your replies. P.S. To anyone out there that plans on using the "Race Card", you might as well move on to the next question because everyone with a education higher then 1st grade know better because this tactic has become a joke and the people claiming racism, morons. So don't embarrass yourselves and just answer the question without sinking to the level of pedophiles and the stupid. Thank you.To DON'T BLAME ME: ...because those types of people are the lowest rung in society, so are anyone using the race card. The race card is only used by people who cant defend their view so they use what they were taught from birth to do. Anyone so much as saying "You are being racist", falls into the category, so please be smart and don't do so. more

Open Question: Mixed signals from a nice girl?

So I met this girl at church about two weeks ago, and long story short, I'm just gonna write whatever signals I remember from each date: First contact (when we met at church): I strike up a small conversation with her, I teased her and she hits me, laughed at my stupid jokes, and we agreed to contact further. we texted and facbook msg a bit, all her texts were very active and she used a lot of emoticons. I playfully suggested a dinner and she agreed. First date, 5 days later: dinner, she seems very interested, asked a lot of questions about me, and already planned a couple more dates with me in the future. she asked when will I have day off at school (I'm in college and she is working, she is 3 years older) so she can hang out with me or visit me at school. she told me what kind of man she wants and her strong faith in God (maybe a little to strong for me). then things chilled for a few days, I thought I had to do something, so I texted her and asked her out to bowling, she said yes then later that day suggested to watch a movie the next day. Second date, one week after first date, movie dinner: she got off work quiet late and we met up at around 9 to have dinner and watch the 10pm movie. we were both quite tired because I was working as a summer intern and she had to stay at work overtime. the conversation wasn't as engaging as the first date, but she told me more about her past and things about her close friends. she asked again when will I have day off at school so she can hang out with me, and said she missed a movie and wanted to buy the DVD and watch it with me when its out. the night ended on a pretty low key, and when we were done it was midnight already and she still has to work the next day. since then we've just sent few casual text and no further dates were made yet. I can feel that she has been quite stressed lately. I've heard from people in church that she is very friendly. I don't know if the above signals are enough for me to take the next step. I've been hurt before and I certainly don't want to be hurt again, also I don't want to hurt her as well. Thanks for reading this long post! Help me if you can de-code what she said! And maybe suggest what I should do now to help her with the stress, without coming too strong? Thanks~~we are both single more

Open Question: Should I dump my BFF or keep her and restart?

well, my "bff" has gotten SUPER annoying over the summer. Whenever she loses at something or when something's hard for her, she says "I wasn't even trying" or whatever. Example: One time, at gym class they were doing the pull-ups test. My "friend" struggled, like, REALLY hard to do 7 pull-ups, because at that time she wanted to be, like, the best athlete in the grade so she could be "popular" or whatever. *rolls eyes* <<< XD Anyway, I was right after her so I used every bit pf my strength to do 8 pull-ups so I could prove her wrong. After gym she asked me how many pull-ups I did. I said "8" proudly. Then she said: "Yeah, I was like 'One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, I'm bored now.' " WTF?! Obvi, she was lying. She also tells stupid jokes trying to be funny. Example: One time, in our School Chapel class, they were talking about communion, and specifically how to get the wine. When they said one of the ways to, my "friend" tapped my shoulder and pretended to chug a whole bottle of wine. WTF? Also, she acts too old for her age. We are both 10 (I'm older than her by like, 8 months) BTW. Example(s): One time, at school before I went to science class she came up to me at my locker and said she had a "vision" of her crush named Max asking her out on the beach. My other (real) friend who is a gossip girl :) told me that Max had a crush on ME not her and that Max personally thought my other "friend" was disgusting and ugly. I told my "friend" about it and she's like: "Well, um, obviously Max sooooo doesn't like you. I mean, no one's had a crush on you before, and um, he um, probably just said that to make me jealous. Besides, rumors aren't even true." Also, we are 10, and she wears a BRA. Like, 30 AA or something so it's a real bra, and get this: I have more boobs than HER (I know cuz I've seen her change at her house before) and I don't even wear a bra. Not even a TRAINER bra. She is SO annoying I want to chop her head off or SOMEthing. So, should I train her to be not-annoying, or should I dump her? PLEASE ANSWER! more

Open Question: How to Deal With a Racist, Sexist, Ageist, Pessimistic, and Extremely Negative/Cynical Uncle?

He just claims “he’s a realist,” and says that all blacks are worthless bums, all Mexicans are lowlife-dirt bags, all women are evil and are merely his servant (he told my grandma to make him a sandwich, several times last week, for crying out loud!), all kids are morons or punks, all gays are … I don’t even know what he has to say about them. He’s also supports paddling your children when they misbehave when I’m trying to explain to him that it has it’s negative points, too. He also says that things like OCD, and ADHD, and schizophrenia are all fake and that people with OCD are just lazy for not trying to help themselves. And this makes be a bit irritated because I’m OCD, ADHD, and schizophrenic myself (no joke, I’ve been to the shrink… against my will, by the way), and it’s all been diagnosed. He also thinks theists are stupid (I’m atheist, yes, but I’m TOLERANT of people who do believe in a higher power) and this gets on my nerves because my mom is a theist and she is by no means stupid. She has an IQ of 139 and as far as I’m concerned, that’s pretty dang good. He also says that all blondes are stupid and I hate this, too, because my best friend is SUPER BLONDE and she is extremely smart. She qualifies to be in MENSA smart! Not to mention he also makes fun of me sand says mean things that question my intelligence. I’m smart, too. IQ of 140< (as a 30 year old woman, that’s what my I.Q. would be). He’s very smart, too, but his social intelligence is poor. And now I go on to his narcissistic tendencies. He constantly talks about how he is smarter than everyone else and how everyone else is stupid and just feeds his gigantic ego non-stop. Now he’s bashing me for not being analytical like he is. I’m a creative, optimistic free-spirit and that doesn’t make me stupid. I can make art, you can make a house. I can write a New York Times best seller, and you can calculate a complicated math problem in your head. He also has such a negative outlook on the world. I mean, I understand that there are goods and there are bads, but it’s not ALL bad. I’m more positive. I don’t let the downbeat junk sour the my view. Accentuate the positive, not the negative! So… how do I put up with him for four more weeks? It’s just so hard to ignore his arrogance and pessimistic tendencies. more

Open Question: How can you tell if a show is CRAP?

Low brow t.v. shows airing in basic cable like Family Guy on Fox news seem to mention hitler alot as a sign of desperation to get viewers. Just like Bill O'Reilly or Glen Beck these losers will mention things like Hitler on a unicycle to make it seem like it is bizarre to get viewers. That is one way to tell if a show is low brow. If you pay close attention to the Simpson's Hitler is barely mentioned. Why? Because the Simpson's is not low brow. The Simpson's never mention things like that and they most certainly don't have stupid flash backs that are ten minutes long so that they don't have to fill it up with decent programming. That is simply too much work for the idiots that work for Seth McFarlane. In the end Family Guy is crap. Also the Simpson's never have as much fart jokes or that much references to sexuality as does Family Guy. Family Guy simply has Peter farting and a stupid flash back while the Simpson's has Homer farting, however there is usually something after that. Sometimes the Simpson's are low brow, but the low browness of the show sometimes reveals something later on that is funny. The Simpson's, most of the time, has decent programming, but every now and then the show starts to get old, but it doesn't last for long. Family Guy plays over and over again the same stupid joke, they stole pretty much the same characters from the Simpson's, and sometimes they steal the same episodes from the Simpson's. I don't watch the Simpson's very often, but I watched one episode where Side Show Bob sings "I have grown accustomed to your face" as did Stewie in Family Guy to Louise. Family Guy is a low brow piece of crap that only steals and over uses the same old flash back and fart joke over and over again. Why is this crap still on the air? I understand that it is on Fox, which is basic cable and will take anything that it is desperate enough to take, but how is this crap ever funny? more

Open Question: Does that Cancer guy guess that I probably like him?

When I see him, I feel I really like him. We work together. He is a nice young man, kind and polite. Although sometimes he is really sarcastic to some of the colleagues who are his friends. Once he laughed at someone who made a silly joke at me when I did a mistake and I felt really sad but I felt he didn't want to make me feel bad, it is just that he jokes around most of the time when he is in a good mood. I am Taurus and I am really shy because I like him. Sometimes I feel so shy that I kind of look down when he passes around and ignore him because I am so afraid to look at his eyes. Other times he asks me how am I doing, if I got a problem and then I answer very quickly with few words. Although when it is work related I do not feel shy to ask him and I am glad if I have something I can ask him about, then he is really polite and kind. I am just worried if he guesses I like him because it would make me feel very bad. From one side I want to show I probably like him but just in a way to know him more as a friend, but from the other side I feel I can't as it would make me look stupid especially if he make a joke at it or laugh at me if he senses I am looking at him or something. I have been rejected in the past and I hard very hard 3 years of moving on, I feel unable to be myself and to be relaxed. Always the guys who like me I do not feel the same for them and the guys I like, I just don't do anything and they never know and of course nothing happens. Only once I let a guy know about my feelings and it hurt a lot. Have you got any ideas how can I become friends with him. I really want to add him on Facebook as a start but I would never ask about it, and we haven't got any friends in common on there. more

Open Question: I want my best friend back. :(?

Okay this might sound stupid. But let's just say, I make alot of jokes. Some of them can be mean. Well here's the background story; My boyfriend's best friend's brother was one of my best friends. I used to always tease him as a joke but he always got offended. Then we made up. But this time, he won't forgive me. I called him a creeper because he was my #1 Facebook stalker (Totally innocent joke) And he got extremely offended. I tried to explain to him that I was kidding, but he won't believe me.Then my boyfriend got involved. When my ex-best friend started calling me a b*tch from h*ll, I was extremely upset because he was like my brother. Now he won't forgive me.. This has been going on for a few days and I just want my best friend back.. Help me :( **Btw i've sent seven page text messages apologizing, pouring my heart out to him but he just won't accept it. I want to be his friend again.. He's amazing :( more

Resolved Question: Why are the Republicans on here so uneducated?

None of the Republicans on here can write in proper English. The majority of them write in garbage dialect that reflects poorly on them. Their spelling is catastrophic. Their capitalization is awful. And their grammar is a nonstop joke. The Republicans, though, come on here and talk about how stupid Obama is, yet none of them can even say it in proper English. Obama graduated from Columbia and Harvard. He was even on that famous law review board for students. So how do these Republicans, who cannot even spell, have the nerve to come on here and call the president an idiot? There is such a disconnect there. We have a bunch of uneducated people calling the Columbia- and Harvard-educated president of the United States an idiot. It doesn't add up, does it? I guarantee you that not one Republican on here can answer my question with a grammatically correct sentence. more

Open Question: Do you think I have a horrible personality and thoughts?

TO make this quick i will make a small chart: Good things about me: Nice Caring Thoughtful Loving Cheerful ONLY when friends are sad supportive BAD THINGS: Horrible Temper Can never let anger out Has a bi polar attitude meaning I can be happy and then suddenly I have this fire I can't tame and it makes me want to curse. I'm trying to mature. I can't seem to let out my anger on people who bothers me though. Not many bother me it was just that I recently had to dump this friend who was just horrible. Too make this quick if you want to know we used to joke around calling each others name but I stopped yet she continued and continued eventually humiliating me in front of her friends online. So I did a prank, made her angry, turned her into a b*tch, and I dumped her. And yes her bullying me has been going on for MONTHS. WHat also makes me angry is that I have this tutor who I just cannot stand. He is irresponsible to me. He forgets to bring things, doesn't bring his own pens or pencils, and talks a lot of stupid things. Once he said he would buy me food and I didn't even ask for it! And once he said he likes a design on my pants and the design was on my thigh! I know I have a really bad attitude on the inside. I look calm and cold on the outside but I can't just stand beig bullied in the past and not doing anything about it. Now I just want to say f*ck you all! -_-'i love things to the nearest perfection. I am strict I like everything in order, and I like how people act in a polite matter. I'm 13 shouldn't I be more relaxed? more

Open Question: Help with a kid in school....please....I wanna be alone?

Hey, I'm 16, a girl and in 11th grade, I have this little problem at school, I'm like a loner at school, I don't have any interest of spending time with people that aren't like me, in my school almost everyone's really immature and talk about things that don't interest me or make me feel bad/uncomfortable (sexism, homophobia, racism, laughing at others, immature sexual jokes, tv shows with the things mentioned above) and also I'm sort of socially awkward but w.e. The point is that this kid he's like 12 but in 9th grade cuz they advanced him as a kid, he's like following me, he sits next to me and talks to me every day in lunch, and I wanna be left alone, cuz I have nothing interesting to talk with him, he likes whining on how much he hates teachers, annoying immature sexual jokes, video games kids play these days (war games or w.e.), being mildly racist/sexist, homophobic etc...and then his friends come and sit there, so even worse...they have a different view on things as me....I rather be alone than talk to people that ''don't speak my language'', so what can I do....I don't want to tell them to go away cuz I don't like being mean, but seriously, I'm peacefull listening to my ipod and then he comes and says something stupid like if it was funny and awesome and sits down...I wanna be alone...help? I've tried ignoring him when he's around but he still comes...and then I can't be mean....-_-then I'd have to hang out all lunch in the bathroom, cuz he hangs out everyday where I like sitting (they call that the school 'lobby') and the library....i might try that more

Open Question: Really SERIOUS question, I need help, now.. I appreciate it very much if you answer?

Ok my small family (a cat and mom) was lovely and nice before. At summer it all changed. I am now 14 btw. My mom just one night went regularly to the bar, I was suprised when she called me since she said she is coming home with a man, I was like sigh... it happens rarely and usually they just have a one night relationship. Ok I thought the same about this man. But after the day he was keeping to come back and I started to know him more and he's nice, but he drinks a LOT (I heard he wasted 600 dollars to drinks this summer...) and smokes. He is same age as my mom, and works and everything, but he can't be father like, I mean he doesn't care about our cat at all neither me. But my concern is not about that guy, it's my mom. She has been changing a lot. She acts like a 20 year old b*tch sometimes.. I don't know what went to her :'( She started going to the bar everyday and stuff, but it was really nothing compared to what I'm going through now, a month later.. A week ago she went to work normally and the guy didn't come here either. Now she doesn't have work again, and well practically the guy is here every day and my mom doesn't care about anything except having sex or something with him? :// I mean let me tell you, yesterday night they came home completely drunk. I was shocked because my mom cussed at everything. She never uses that kind of words but yesterday she like screamed F*CK and all that stuff.. also she doesn't care about me. She only drinks and even though my cat was in the balcony (she doesn't roam free she is a home cat) and could jump off my mom didn't even look at her. I needed to get her out since it was raining also but my mom just didn't care! Then the guy wanted to go to his own home. My mom kept screaming that she wont let him. Then I came and said that "Seriously it's not your business what others wanna do. If he wants to go LET HIM" My mom said "Why no one listens to me? ever?" and then started to shout at me "GO AWAY this is not your business I AM THE OWNER OF THIS HOME GO AWAY ALREADY!!!" the man said why she is shouting at me but mom only said I am just so stupid and annoying. I started crying but she didn't mind... I don't know how the guy can stand him! Today she is again in the bar with the guy, she didn't make breakfast for me, also we had to go shopping because I need one thing for school but of course she didn't want to because drinking is more important.. :( I asked, "really, is that guy and your all bar friends and drinking so much more important to you than our cat and me?" she just laughed, like it would be a joke and said "maybe companion is" I got so angry but she left so I couldn't do anything... I don't really want to live in my home with a mom like that... I feel I could cry every minute... I have many more stories about my days... I just can't tell them now,sorry. But.. I love my cat, I hope I could get away somewhere with her..What i should do? I know my mom isn't going to get a counselor for me, she never sees any faults in herself. I don't know why she is torturing me. I am scared that she will fall into using drugs again... she used them as young... Why she can't be a normal family mom like her sister, she is a really nice and good mom, why I can't be her child?!?!? :'( I can't write more because I am crying and almost choking to sadness. I don't really want to move away to some child house where you can't do anything... I want to be in a normal family.. I don't get why my mom is doing this, can't she think that i could even do a suicide? and I would if I didn't have my lovely friends and a cat to help me.. Unfortunately my friends are not the ones to help me... I wish I was already 17 or something so I could move away.. ;_; Sorry if it was too long and you didn't read it becaue of that.. I hope someone could help me anyway, because I do not want to wait four years in this anguish anymore, but I know that suicide is not the answer and I hope i will feel so always more

Open Question: I'm in a toxic friendship and think another friend is too; what should I do?

I have a toxic friend. (I'll call him John.) I first came to realize this was the case when I opened up to him why I was upset and crying over something and he proceeded to tell me what he didn't like about me and why I was being stupid. I started to reevaluate and read a little on toxic friends. The definition that describes him near perfectly is in this article: http://www.helium.com/items/1324974-five-characteristics-of-a-toxic-friend-5-characteristics-of-a-toxic-friend-toxic-relationships So the next course of action I deem fit is to cut ties with him. Not easy, and here's why. First of all, we are both officers in a club at my University. This means we have to not only see each other on a regular basis, but work together and collaborate. Keep in mind here that he is extremely controlling, manipulative, and possessive. (See: Above Link for details) In addition, he is best "friends" with another really close guy friend, fellow officer, and house mate of mine. Now the above 'friends' is in quotations because I'm worried that my other friend (I'll call him Alex) is also suffering from John as a toxic friend, but to a worse degree. I've been friends with John for about 5 months. Alex has been 'friends' with John for nearly 10 years. Recently I caught wind of an argument that Alex and John had where John blew up because Alex had gone to an amusement park and didn't invite him. He threatened to cut ties with Alex all together and said he'd only forgive him if he went on an extremely expensive study/vacation with him to another country. I was on the same trip and it appeared to me that John made Alex feel guilty if he ever tried to hang out with anyone and didn't invite him along as well, and only with displayed reluctance would let Alex choose certain places to visit. Alex was hardly able to make any new friends on that trip, and he's usually the most sociable guy in out group. (Again, See: above link) In addition, John does things such as: --Venting to us about how he's worried he won't have a career when he graduates and then proceeding to tell Alex and I why our career choices are stupid. --Takes over/interjects the 'right way to do' any project that I myself begin for our club or my major (we have the same major) --Eats very slowly when we go out in order to control us into staying with him longer when we have plans to go somewhere without him after wards. --Gets very defensive when I try to talk to him about something that I think is wrong in our friendship and turns on me, listing unrelated issues he thinks is wrong with me (ie- Me: "I'm not comfortable with you sharing that personal story about what happened to me" Jon: "I don't think I could ever get along with someone who's so serious about something stupid like that. It was just a joke!") --Gets me involved with his arguments, often putting words in my mouth, and straining my relationships with the mutual friends he argues with. --Etc. (Seriously, it's basically all in that link) And so that is the situation I am in. I know I need to cut it off, but I don't know how when I'm going to continue to have all these ties to him for the rest of this year. Also, I'm worried about Alex because I don't want to butt in where I'm not wanted and make assumptions that he is unhappy in the relationship (like John would) but I'm really worried that as badly as John treats me, he treats Alex ten times worse. What do you think I should do? more

Resolved Question: Does anybody ever say "the bomb" or "da bomb" anymore?

Sometimes I say that in a joking way, but I don't want to seem just really stupid when I'm trying to be funny. xD more

Open Question: What should I put in a scrapbook for my boyfriend? (One year anniversary)?

So I dated this guy, we broke up, and now we're dating again. We've been dating for a month now and i thought that i would start up a scrapbook to give him on our 6 month anniversary (or maybe our 1 yr?) We are 17 year old seniors in high school. BUT, the problem is, I'm not sure exactly what I should put in the scrapbook. So far, I'm going to have: - lots of pictures of us together - movie stubs from movies we've seen together with the DVDs of the movies - some paintings of mine that he's asked for (we're artists) - a mixCD of songs that make me think of him, because he introduced me to them (would this be a stupid idea?) - A page or two full of our little nicknames and inside jokes - maybe a page of memorable IMs or something printed on nice paper? BUT, I want a lot more stuff in there so.... if you have any MORE ideas (or if you're a guy and you think any of my ideas are stupid) please let me know! And i was wondering if i should put like a gift in the scrapbook? Like maybe tickets to a concert he likes or.... something??? Ideas there would be helpful too (: THANKS SO MUCH! more

Resolved Question: Its my best friends 13th birthday tomorrow and I want to make it special!?

I already know that im going to be the first one to tell her happy birthday on her facebook wall and text her it & I got her a really nice card & a chocolate bar because she loves chocolate and her parens never buy it for her. I want to get her something else thats nice like a shirt or jewelery or something. Her parents wont let me come over tomorrow for her birthday because of some stupid reason but they are going to let me come over another day soon for a dinner & movie. So I have a few more days to make her birthday present really nice. Im gonna also make her a homemade card saying inside jokes and things like that. Is there anything you would change or add? Pleeaase&&Thaankyoou(: more

Resolved Question: Am i a disturbed person?

When i was younger my parents use to fight all the time, long story short my father had anger management issues.He no longer hits my Mother or older Brother anymore because he had help.But when i got older my personality started changing violently.I was happy when i was younger but something changed me as i was like around 11 or 12.I remember when i was in elementary school i use to yell at my best friend for small stupid reasons (this only happened once).He started crying a little bit but not extreme.Also when i was in 5th grade i use to slap my friend hard and hit her alot but she didn't take it seriously most of the times because i was actually joking around, but now that i think of it it's kind of a harsh joke.Most of the time i would yell at my best long time friend to leave me alone when i hang out with other friends.Also when im at home me and my older brother are really close but i act violently towards him.I call him names like ''Idiot'' and ''dumba**'' and ''fag'' and all those words that come out of my mouth, and i usually hit him hard when he bothers me.Another thing is that i get angry at small reasons,i would get angry if the computer isn't working.Like if it froze i'd punch the screen and yell at the computer cussing (this is also the same with me playing videogames).I don't know if i have Bipolar because i get depressed and angry most of the times.What's wrong with me?I was a happy go lucky kid when i was way younger but now im so violent when im older?Im only 15 years old and this mostly happens alot sometimes. more

Resolved Question: Why are black people so stupid?

Walking thourgh the crowed streets of Paris on a winters morning with snow drops falling and glistening with a hint of hello but then oh no guess what a big scary monster crept upbehind me it was a uh uh big black ugly monster yes thats right a nigger oh no not a nigger run for the hills mr pickle head. That was a joke by the way (above) no offense intended. So why are black people so stupid I mean why not sit on the toliet instead off on the streets why not travel on a plane instead on a cammel why travel on foot when theres the car durrghh why talk like a retard when I am posh why be so disgusting to exist when you could be rid off? Thank you for your time. A common black lady's speech: Alright love how are you. Oh your rooms nice. I like your kicthen. Omg new shoes I like it. Notice the patteren the common black lady likes what we White's have but hates her possessions easy to understand though. Why are black people so unintelligent, ugly, disgusting and downright horrid? Black people are fowl mouth common scum death to them all. P.s I am not racist I am bored. Haha you blacks just got owned. more

Resolved Question: I get called humble, responsable, respectable,etc...but..?

I have always hated my mother...I feel she's an error in life, and without joking, she is the reason i first searched "why did god make some humans so retarded" on google, and eventually became an agnostic... No, I don't hate her in the way you would think a "normal" (note the quotes) teenager would this days, I don't cut myself or all that, thats plain stupid (and I mean at the people that try to be "emo"to fit in, but actually aren't....not the people with actual depression) Point is she tries to take control of my life...I'm an 99% A , 1% B 0% anything else student, yet every work I do for her is full of flaws and mistakes like spelling or grammar or art, anything, even if the professional teacher says otherwise. So she always tries to...just an example, but she does it, say I have to give MY opinion about a novel, but MY opinion is wrong in her eyes, in fact its the opposite of her opinion, so she makes me look for the "official, right, flawless opinion" online and makes me write it (I don't though, to my advantage she doesn't check it often). Just today, and almost every weekend day, I studied for the time I needed, which took me the whole day today because of projects and all that. I usually sleep at 2am ish and she knows this, she hates it but I've done it practically since i got out of the crib. But no, no "rewards" at all after a hard day, no, its just study and go to sleep...I cannot watch T.V or play PS3 or anything...I'm in 9th grade and I get no help (I admit I don't need it from anyone, much less my mom) and my sister does get help + she is let to sleep at whatever time (and she's a senior) They (my mom and sister, but I don't give a fuck about my sister since she has no control over me) fuck up everything...from T.Vs to desktops to cars to life...everytime I gave my sister my laptop, a virus was found the next day....coincidence, they say. The point is, I study alone with no one to tell me I have to study (Even though I am told, I already am studying/have studied without being told to) I get A's yet I can't get a simple reward...to use my time left...then you see the average kid and he gets C's and gets 10hrs of PS3 for that... The point is I have a lot of friends and my family is quite big, and I hate no one in the world other than my mother and sister, and I'm forced to live with them...God knows whats next know that my sister is headed of to college, provided she isn't pregnant before that and can't go.... How can I deal with this anger? more

Open Question: My Girlfriend treats me like shit...I don't know what to do!?

My girlfriend and I have been dating for the past 9 months. We are both 15 and we hang out everyday together and alone. She is becoming a sophomore and because i skipped a grade I'm becoming a junior. As a result her friend group and my friend group are completely different and separate. I hate all her friends. They are sluts, whores and extremely superficial. I think they are a horrible influence on my girlfriend and it shows. Whenever she's with them she changes, we usually only fight when she calls me when she's with them, and we are always fighting about how she puts her friends above me. She always makes plans with me but then cancels them for her friends... I love her too much to brake up with her, and I know she loves me alot, but so far we've had 3 stupid brake ups that didn't last more than a day. All of them took place when she was with her friends. Today I was supposed to go to her house at seven, so i told my friends I had plans and they all went to go see a movie. Again she canceled and I spent the whole night again alone at home and upset. her friends all tell her to brake up with me all the time and that she shouldn't be dating a guy for so long. As we were talking on the phone I got very upset because again, I was left at home with nothing to do. So I got so upset i said, I'm very mad at you, dont talk to me till schools starts. I didn't mean it i was upset. But then she started to think she had every right to be a bitch to me and that I was the asshole so even after i said sorry she started yelling I wont talk to you till school starts. Her friends constantly use me as a punching bag for their jokes, and she doesn't defend me. Once she even let them pass me round on the phone and they all had a rude comment to say! My girlfriend basically treats me like shit and when I retaliate she says I'm the bad guy in the relationship. I know I should brake up with her but I can't. I love her too much and I am very attached to her since I lost my virginity to her, any help? more

Resolved Question: Don't get this joke??

My friend was Furious and said " lets go F*** em up" I said: "we can go F*** em up, but let us remember your farther was mysteriously absent" Its a Reginald D Hunter joke...... & the only 1 i don't get??! :/ more

Open Question: I like him... but not sure he likes me?

so I like this one guy and I let his friend (and mine) tell him that I had a crush on him last year on the last day of school. But he didnt say anything, we never really talked but I'm known around school. Well finally yesterday face to face. In the beginning my friend got him to get me because I was at the seat behind him at the cafeteria. so he says 'hey she wants you and tells me to sit there'. in the beginning he was kinda red and avoided eye contact but then I started saying jokes and stuff do my friend and his cousin (his sat next to him) and he started laughing. I was talking to his friend and he asked me how do you say this in arabic then the guy I like finally talks to be and says what does that mean and that as our first face to face convo (im friends with his brother but he already left for college) So we were talking all lunch and cracking jokes about all 6 of us. how should I drop subtle hints, to show I still like him. I think he likes me, but how can i get it more. There is a one year difference in grade, but like 4 months difference in age. How should drop subtle hints that don't require touching for now since we just started talking. me and his cousin were talking about my dimples (since they get deeper when im nervous but are still pretty deep his friend knew I was nervous) and he was looking. but when I looked back he like looked away (this was in the beginning) then later on I was saying I have a friend with a dimple here and here and then he finally started talking to me and convos went on from there then after school i walked past him and my friend told him bye and he told me bye and did the hand slide and fist pump hhaha. i know this kinda sounds stupid and immature, haha, but i really like him. BUT his cousin said she was gonna put a good word for me. but that can always get awkward since they arent THAT close to talk about relationships (: I thought he was really shy by the way I've seen him I told his cousin and she was like 'Ive never seen that side of him..'' exact words. were also friends on facebook more
