Try talking to a careers advisor at your school.

Find a new hobby or interest or something like that that you could take up to take your mind off him, distract yourself. You will heel over time, it sucks to get used to, especially if you have spent most of your time with him but by filling gap with something else you like it can really help you.

It sounds like he doesn’t know what he wants. If he said that he wanted you back would you? Do you think its worth it when you know that there is a good chance that he will break up with you again?

If you’re hanging out for him to want to reconcille than that can make the hurt worse. Maybe it will really help to decide that you absolutly dont want to get back together with him as it will help you let go of some feelings, but dont decide that if its not what you want. Likewise look at the facts and decide if you are fooling yourself or not?

You dont have to best friends or anything like that but say hi to him when you see him and try to get along, that way if you had to do any group work with him in class or anything it wouldn’t be too bad.

Remember, you once really liked eachother and probably spent a fair amount of time together, so just because you’re not together any more doesn’t mean that you have to be enamies, simply respect what you once had.

Hope it works out for you :)

I”m in Australia and we usually have a BBQ and those that are old enough drink, usually excessively and find a stranger or partner to kiss at 12, or maybe go to a dance party and do the same.

Alcohol is a major part in Australian social life and celebrations and although binge drinking is pretty bad for you its just a part of our (or my) culutre :)

Why dont you try by putting the story down in your own words first, that way you have a good place to start

start with a compliment, just make sure it isn’t something weird that would make her think your a stalker lol. Make sure you pick your moment, not when she’s destracted and not in front of everyone.

be yourself, if he likes who you are than thats great but there are no magic words to MAKE a guy like you (unfortunately).
Its true, people’s favorite topics of conversation are themselves, so begin with polite small talk about him something like how are you? what did you get up to today? do you like (insert something you like, maybe sport or music). If you’re at a specific place eg school, than chat about that.
This will show him that your interested and if you make mental notes and bring up things he likes in future conversations he might really get that your interested. be warned though, dont come off as a stalker, this is a major turn off! lol
arrange to meet up sometime or something like that, if he likes you back, things will just happen naturlly.
but yeah, sometimes you just need to give things a little nudge in the begining!
good luck :)

The wider community in general do still have a problem with the gay community which is a sad thing. Personally I dont have a problem with it, some of my best friends are gay, they are human just like you and I and cant help being gay as much as I cant help being straight.

A lot of people today think that just because your the same sex you’ll automatically be interested in them, even though they have friends of the opposit sex with no problems!!!???

Maybe you need friends who are more similar to you, start online maybe?
Or just be open and tell people that yeah your gay but that doesn’t mean that you fancy them!

Good luck :)

In ‘edit your profile’ you can copy the code into any of the fields where you type, ‘tell us about yourself’ field will do. save it and preview it. this works for all the codes.

Dont be nervous to speak to your sister about it, it obviously needs to be said, she does need it checked out by a doctor.
Try and be alone with her in a place you both feel comfortable when you have a chat. just say something like “am right in thinking you’ve had your period almost constantly lately? I’m worried about you, I think you should see a doctor”.
just let her know that your concerned cos you care for her. Dont worry if she doesn’t say anything back or if she yells at you, at least she’s heard what you have to say :)

This could be either an evironmental factor or a medical problem i think. Medically it could be related to fatigue or an imbalance in the brain chemicals both of which are related to depression. im not a doctor but speaking to onw could help you. Environmentally speaking, whats going on around you? What do you do during your day/night? Maybe try putting yourself out there, try new things, follow an interest or hobby, maybe even make new friends. I know that when I’m bored with day-to-day life I get sad for no apparent reason over a long stretch of time.
force a smile on your face, hold it as long as you can, apparently this tricks your brain into thinking your happy and releases happy chemicals. :)

yeah, it does. its all about the decisions that you make and the excitment or fear of not knowing what is the best choice to make. try reading the poem ‘the road not taken’ by robert frost, its a classic for obvious reasons! :)

start everwhere. Expose yourself (your creative talents that is lol) at every tiny opertunity. Get into as many groups as u can as well. through this u should start making a few connections that might led to better opertunies. Maybe get a mentor or at least an idol?
Sound like a lot of work? It will be!
but just remember, becoming successful in something you love to do might not result in a lot of money (or any) and might not give you great fame.
keep it fun, keep putting everything into it and you’ll get there eventually!
:)

yep, the only way to get rid of one addiction is to replace it with another (something to do with the dopamine chemical in ur brain thats the real addiction that gets released when you do whatever your addiction is). I’m a smoker, not a brain surgeon though lol.

porn addiction could be bad in a relationship. try employing the same steps alcoholics or smokers use to quit, they’re all adictions afterall (but hopefully its not a social thing?)lol.

Nothing wrong with porn but if an addiction is affecting your life, take small steps, you’ll get there buddy!

Explain to her that you cannot help being bi-sexual as much as she cannot help being heterosexual. Maybe a councillor could act as a mediator for the two of you, or your whole family, so that you can have a good, honest talk about who you are, how you know what you are, and how their discrimination makes you feel. Likewise, they can tell you their feelings in for you to take into account.
I think that its great that you know who you are and are ready to stand up for yourself. DOn’t hide who you are, this will only make you unhappy. Maybe you could find an online forum where people share thier experiences with the same problem. Having not had to deal with it myself makes it difficult for me to say what should be said but some dialogue and listening is definantly needed here. :)

In an ever changing world computer literacy is just as important as traditional literacy, so providing that she is supervised and the content is age specific their shouldn’t be a problem. It could also be a fun thing for the two of you to do together. :)
