  • Why does she have sex all the time and shes only 13?

    Other - Family & Relationships - 5 hours ago

    Additional Details

    am 14 and i have this friend that is about 13 i knew her since like 4 years now and shes always been a nice helpfull person when we got to our secondary school at the end of year seven she started having fights at school and at the start of year 9 she told me she had sex with this random person and now she does it all the time. Yesterday i spoke to her and she was like ohh you know that guy from our year i had it with him. So all im wondering about is why does she do it and does she think it makes her seem cooler ?? Its maybe because she lives in a bad area or that she has 16 brothers and sisters and she is trying to have her own life without them i dont know what to think ???

    Okay, i had this friend who used to be all over every guy i like. anyway, the last person this happened with is a guy that i really like, anyways, they are now dating (as usually happens)... I am not talking to her at all now, it causes too much drama. But i still want to be friends with her bf, still my crush (who she uses as a way to upset me) and she is in my dance group at school which is only made up of four people.... Any ideas how i can not talk to her but still not come across as b*t*hy??

    If she has you hold her and link arms and wont let you kiss her but it's obvious there's something there, what the hell's going on lol? She asks me how I am in relationships, she keeps bringing up gf and bf thigns. She put some flowers I gave her in her scrapbook. She told me today that I'm the only guy that's ever made her nervous and that she sees the way I look at her. She looks in my eyes and says she feels theres something I want to tell her, and there is that I like her, should I turn this into a relationship? Next time I speak to her I'm going to ask her on a date.

    Okay, so over the years my best friend has had a really great boyfriend - or so we thought. I'm regretting it a little since I got myself involved, but what he did to her was really horrible and the way it ended wasn't good at all. I'm not going to dive too deep into the details of what happened, but since I'm trying to help my friend cope I came up with a silly and stupid ploy to do for revenge. Apparently he cheated on her with this asian girl, and I feel cruel for doing this but I photoshopped his head onto a body of a Geisha... LOL!!!!! Stupid and immature, but my best friend Jenna needed a good laugh. We're debating whether or not we should send him and that girl the photo on Myspace or Facebook, but I'm kinda scared to, haha. What do you say? I think he deserves some embarrassment... Original picture - http://i45.tinypic.com/2d9bfo0.jpg Geisha makeover - http://i45.tinypic.com/142ubn8.jpg Hahaha, it's official. I am awesome. <3

    So this girl and I are at the friends with benefits stage, but so far she hasn't even let me kiss. On saturday she was looking in my eyes calling me handsome, and shy, and she pressed her body up against mines for warmth, linked my arm in hers, I knew she likes me, but I only got to kiss her on the forehead. I rubbed her butt, rubbed her back at the party, just to let her know it's alright to be physical with me. But when around public, or my close friends, I don't like to be intimate with women. Well today she asked me how I am in relationships and she said she sees the tension in me, and she gets a weird vibe from me I say good or bad she says not bad, and that she feels theres something I want to say to her. She changed infront of me today with her sister in the room and she's real cool with me. I'm starting to like her, but stopping myself because its a friend with benefit thing.
  • I have a question, regarding her feelings?

She's cool and I'd get with her, should I take it in the relationship direction?

    so my ex girlfriend, who broke up with me about 2 months ago, is a cheerleader. and today at school, she dropped her books and i walked over to her and picked them up for her. she told me thank you and i said "you're welcome" and i started walking to next class. then, she said "you smell good." and had a little smile (she always told me that when we were dating). also, after school, i was doing my homework in the lobby and she walked in but didn't see me at first. i looked at her but she didn't see me, so i just continued to do my homework when i heard a "hey" i looked up and she asked me what i was doing and everything. then she sat down beside me and started doing her homework too, we were the only ones in the room at the time. we talked quite a bit, and she brought up most of the stuff, because i didn't want to seem "Too" talkitive. then she told me that her sister and her ex boyfriend got back together a few days ago. the broke up about the same time we did. and she went into details on what he did for her sister and everything. i just want to know what you think my ex girlfriend was thinking?? and if you think she still has feelings for me? i still like her, but idk what to do about it!!
