Should I text him? Guys and girls advice!?
So there is this guy I am interested in at my school. The way we met was a funny story but we ALWAYS seem to run into each other at random places, like we ran into each other at Ralphs twice already and we have all of these coincidences between us. Sometimes we text, and usually I text him first… but he’s really friendly. & when I see him in the hallway he usually gives me a wink or touches my arm or says hi real quick or nods his head. I was at a bball game and his ex was sitting by me and she kept staring at me giving dirty looks, but I don’t know if it’s because she knows we talk or if he’s mentioned me? Anyways, I don’t know if I should text him, or just not. I want to get to know him but I don’t want to seem needy or desperate. Help! What should I do?

Thanks. (:


If you want to communicate with him, I suggest you text him, call him, or talk to him in person. Relationships are founded on good communication. It is desperate to initiate a conversation.

I say go for it and if you guys become good friends and if he doesn’t have a girlfriend I would ask him out if you like him that much. Keep texting him and you shouldn’t care about the ex. So good luck!

Forget about his EX, she’s his EX for a reason if she starts to cause trouble let him know and he can deal with her.
Sounds like he does like you though which is a good thing! You guys should share who messaging who first not just you because then yes you do seem needy and desperate and then he’ll do the typical guy thing and play hard to get.

Maybe wait and not messaging him for afew days and allow him to message you, if he asks why you haven’t messaged him just tell him the last few days have been flat out or you lost your mobile.

Guys should always message first remember that.

I want to start ballet….?
But I am thirteen. Is this too old to be just starting?
And I don’t want to have to perform, I just want to learn how to do ballet.
I told my dad I wanted to do ballet last night and he said it really screws up your feet.
But my friend today said unless you are in intense ballet things, you don’t need the block of wood in the shoes. I know this doesn’t make sense so…
Am I too old to start, and will it mess up my feet in any way?


Definitely not too old my best friend just stared 5 years ago at 16 and its actually better to start this late because your feet are more developed than a 5 year old

You are certainly not too old to start ballet, unless you are aiming at a professional career (which, from what you wrote, I can safely say you are not). My friend’s mum started taking adult ballet classes two years ago, and she was forty years old back then, whereas another friend of mine decided to take classes around the same time. She was fifteen then, now seventeen, and she really shines in class. The teacher loves her and thinks she has a natural ability for ballet (although, from what I’ve seen, her turnout could be better).

Ballet will give you problems if you force your turnout (http://z.about.com/d/dance/1/G/f/0/-/-/t endufirst.jpg) which is bad for your knees and hips. But otherwise it’s perfectly safe if you are not practicing it at a very serious level (advanced level dancers who are dreaming of a career in ballet can sometimes dance up to eight hours a day, even more!).

Good luck :)

its not too late and it wont mess up your feet

especially if your not wanting to perform then its definitely not too late. you can start at any age but you might just be in classes with kids much younger so you can learn the basics.

and i have danced since i was a little kid and i do a lot of ballet and so far my feet arent screwed up nor anyone elses i dance with. if your not going to be doing too much either than i dont think you have anything to worry about. if you did pointe then there would be more worry about wrecking your feet and i think thats what your friend might have been talking about. sometimes point shoes have wood at the toe part.

ballet will probably be good rather than bad. it will help with posture and everything and it can actually make your feet better.

1. you are never too old. i didnt start dancing until i was 12 almost thirteen. for me, i actualy think its a good thing when you start later because you can understand the excercises better than a 3 year old who is just starting. AKA you improve really fast

2. you don’t have to perform most likely. that would be a good thing to ask when looking at different studios. most studios have open or recreational classes that you dont have to perform or anyting some are even just drop in classes

3. it only screws up your feet if you are dancing "en pointe" (the shoes with the blocks of wood in then- its not acutally wood but whatever) this is where you are dancing on the vert tips of your toes and you will definitely not be doing this if you are a beginner. you have to train for a while before you go en pointe and if you are just doing classes casually it is possible you will never hav e to get these shoes if you dont want to.

DEFINITELY NOT TOO LATE, AND DEFINITELY WONT MESS UP YOUR FEET
actually it will make your feet way stronger- a good thing

hope this helps

Feeling so confused about all my friends! Please help?
so lately, I’ve been pretty depressed and quiet, which is totally different than who i really am.
usually, im funny, happy, and extremely outgoing. i like to find something good about everyone, and im very honest.
however, im really self conscious, even though it might not show on the outside.
so back to the question:
i’ve been feeling very depressed. (btw im only in 8th grade)
at school, i have a pretty good number of friends, but all of them seem to be growing apart from me.
like my best friend is super good at vball and now she plays with all the "popular" people and someone likes her who’s pretty popular.
i mean someone likes me too, but he’s not really popular and stuff…
i kinda wanna be popular, but everyone wants to be popular sometime in their lives rite? :(
i know i sound like a total snob, but i know that in the long run, popularity doesn’t matter, true friends do.
so whenever i play with my best friend and the popular people, i get all stiff and i become tottallyyy self conscious.
and i watch every move of everyone, and im scared what people think of me when i don’t even engage in the game.
i kind of suck at volleyball (more than any of the players there) and i have no idea wat to do.

What do I do with my life?? Ugh, everything just got a little more confusing. :(
i wish i could just go back to 7th grade..


Ok, so you and I are kinda alike. I have a friend that wants to be popular because she thinks i am. every chance she gets she tries to become popular and it bothers me. My advice is to talk to your friend about it. If that doesn’t work try to find more friends (some have a lot in common) this doesn’t mean that you can’t still be best friends with this girl but if you have more friends you won’t feel left out! I mean everyone wants to be popular but the truth is being popular is not about who you hang out with its how many TRUE FRIENDS you have. Just be yourself and have fun with your friends!!!!! I hope this answered you question!!!!!!!!!!!! IF not email me!! its cjcoapman@sbcglobal.net

Kill you sel;f no lol.

Sounds like one of my problems at the moment, but slightly different.
If you’re being depressed and quiet just face the fact that you are changing! Change is not a bad thing, you will always be changing based on the choices you make, so choose wisely! Not that you haven’t already. Be yourself around your friends, and if it’s too hard to just start doing that, first be true to yourself. Just go with it all, live like you want to. Don’t get held down by popularity or friends. Make sure your life is going the right way, then make sure everyone elses’ lives are, too and help them. Try thinking more positive: repeat positive sayings, tell yourself to smile, etc. and it will change you back if you don’t like the new you. I’ve been trying to do that to myself, but now I just accept the fact that it’s a phase, and even though others don’t like it, it is MY life, and it just might be who I really am. Nothing can change you unless you want to change yourself. Be true to your life, and good luck!! (LL)
