sillist1s's questions
So, I've been jobless for about 6 months. No place around where I live is hiring. Well...I went for an interview Thursday at kmart and as soon as I walked in, the lady said I didn't look good enough. I mean I was dressed nice and everything, but I let ...
So, I was really excited about going to college in few weeks and moving out of the boring town I live in and living in the city. I was an honor student in high school too. But now, it looks like I won't be able to go to school because I have no pl...
So...I'm going to start college soon (yay!) and I'm tired of wearing glasses all the time. Plus I want to shop for sunglasses with my sister before we leave. We're twins and separating and she loves sunglasses and I like them too I just can't wear th...
Ok, I go to the gym almost everyday. About three or four weeks ago, I noticed a pain in my leg, like a sore muscle. I get those a lot so, I continued to work out. Then the day after I got back from a college orientation, I noticed it got kinda worse li...
So how about I'm watching a story on the news about a little kid that wouldn't say the pledge and got into major trouble for it. I don't get why he would get into trouble for it. A kid in my English class got into trouble for it when a sub was there on...
So how my sister and one of her coworkers told me about this man who lost 45 pounds in just 2 months with some "diet pill" from out of the country. They said that they did see him 2 months ago, and you ould really tell that he weighed 260 pounds then h...
Why is it that I can't get boyfriend or something. I mean, come ooon! I'm 18 and never been kissed! But anyway, why is it that only older guys approach me?? I mean they know I'm young, because I look younger in person (and I'm mature for my age, had ...
So, I was answering some questions in love and relationships and I had a thought. A thought that turned into a really good question. This is not just for people in relationships like the title says, but rather give me your thoughts/opinions, okay? ...
Ok, so how about I'm watching Nancy Grace right now and there's a guy threatening to jump off from the inside of a senate building. He's 70 feet up. What I don't get is if a man wants to jump, apparently trying to kill himself, why are they trying to ...
Why would people rather talk with pretty skinny people than fat, bigger people? Just curious cause we were at a family reunion today, and nobody would talk to me cause I don't think I'm pretty and I'm fat. And all the skinny pretty girls always had peo...
Yeah...I'm bored to death. It's raining here in Georgia and it will be probably all day. I'm going to the gym in a minute, but afterwards I know I'll have nothing to do. I'm bored already. What can I do to cure this boredness? btw, I have no friend...
Is it perfectly normal to miss someone sooo much, even though you haven't spoken to them in like 4 months? He was the first person I've ever dated and I miss him a lot. I keep thinking about him and for like the past couple of nights I dreamt about him...
Should I just give up? I'm the most insecure person in the world and paranoid. Not to mention, that the one guy I ever dated (who was Indian) just stopped talking to me outta the blue and he said he loved me and all that crap (oh and he was the first/o...
Yeah, I know this gets asked a lot, but I just want to know what you think. (sorry it's blue). I think I'm the ugliest person in the world. My friends tell me different, but I don't believe them. I'm REALLY insecure. I don't know how to not be that way...
I was reading mine for today and it said "Reach out to someone you haven't seen or heard from in a while -- most likely someone far away. You're in the right place emotionally to make the connection and they should respond quite well." I mean I kno...
What's the difference between the two? Why would someone take someone to court for slander or defamation? I'm asking this cause I just got an idea to take a "friend" whose saying I gave her these gifts and stuff that I didn't give her...but her fia...
There's this girl (she WAS a good friend of mine) she still thinks we're good friends. But she made a mistake and ran off with her psycho boyfriend. Things got ugly with her and her parents. Her boyfriend gave her a cell phone because they weren't allo...
I'm just totally curious. Not the King Arthur stuff. Bobby Pendragon and Travelers that book. It's a bestselling series. If you do... how much do you like them? What's your favorite book? How old are you? Me, I'm 18 and I started reading them like 3...
Just curious.
I have it and I don't know how to stop. The past month has been horrible. I've gained 10 pounds. I don't know what to do. My life is ruined. I've been on a diet before I started this binge trip. and it's happened before almost everytime I'm on a di...
Ok, I'm totally bored right now, so I was thinking and thinking about why I've never been in any relationship and I'm 18 freakin years old, well I talk to guys and when they ask or the subject of "are you a virgin?" or something like that comes up, th...
How many calories would you burn by drinking ice cold water? I've heard different things mainly between 50-100 calories per cup.
I haven't talked to him in months. He hasn't called and won't answer any of my texts or messages I send him. Out of the blue, he just stopped talking to me and I don't know what I did. He said he loved me and all that stuff, he was the first person tha...
I'm going to Dollywood with my best friend tomorrow and I want to know is it fun? I've looked at all the videos and such, but I still don't know. I live in GA and go to six flags like every week, I've ridden all the trill rides tons so I don't like rid...
Okay, I know this is wierd, but I'm just wondering. I've never had sex before so that's why I'm asking this and I'm not a kid or anything (I'm 18) so be honest. I just thought of this cause I was trying to sleep and heard my brother and his woman frien...
So today I woke up and was nervous all day. At first I thought it had to do with the trip I'm going on with my best friend, but then I was like "No, it's not." So...I've come to only one conclusion: tomorrow this guy I just started talking to is comm...
So, lately I've been really bummed about my weight and all. Last week, I didn't eat the entire week and went to the gym everyday. Then, my mom made me eat. Since then, I've felt like I've gained 50 thousand pounds and I feel HORRIBLE. Today, I wasn't g...
I've been on a diet and such since Jan. and I've lost 70 pounds to date, some methods better than others, but does the scale lie?. People have told me I look smaller and things like that, but I don't believe them, I think they're lying. I still feel fa...
So...I've been on a diet for a while and lost over 50 pounds, but this past week I've been off my diet and eating all kinds of stuff because it has been graduation week (I'm finally a High School graduate) and everyone has been saying "It's a time for ...
does anyone know where or how you could get a home refinanced? My mom loves her house, but can't keep it because my sister and I are graduating high school and that's when the social security checks stop. (that's how she's been able to pay for the hous...
Ok, so there's this guy (here we go again) and we've been talking on and off for a while. Now, we're off. This has happend before too. We'd talk everyday and for like 2 hours, then out of the blue, he'd just stop talking to me for like forever. I hav...
So my best friend, whom I love like a sister, is dating this guy, who's a little wierd. He's caused her relationship with her family to become so horrible, (he's trying to make her desert her family and become part of his...they got engaged like two ...
So, I'm about to graduate high school a week from today! ('08!) I'm going to college in the fall, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to make friends. Don't get me wrong, I can easily make friends and I love talking to people, but in high school I was ...
Whitney, Fatima, or Anya? I want anyone but Fatima to win. Whitney's my fav though. Don't get me wrong, Fatima is gorgeous (just like the others) but her attitude sucks. What do you think? It comes on Tonite at 8! Class of '08 Rocks!
Ok, lately my hair has been falling out A LOT and I'm really really itchy. I can't stop scratching. What could be the cause of this? These things haven't started since I lost some weight. I've lost over 50lbs and still losing. Do you think me losing ...
For the past week or two, I've noticed that my hair has been falling out a lot. Like everytime, I brush it there's like a least half a hand full that came out. And whenever I run my fingers through it, there's more hair. What could be the reasons why...
So I just got my Action Replay it's the second version, and I want to enter codes for Twilight Princess, but I can't find where I can enter the codes. Where can I find it? Do I need another memory card or something? cause the ones I have are full.
Where can I get an AR memory card for the Nintendo Gamecube. I just got my AR today and I can't load any games to it cause I don't have a memory card. I've searched everywhere and I can't find one. Does anyone have any clues as to where I can find one?
So, I'm overweight and I need to lose weight fast. I've lost about 50 already, but it's not enough and I'm not losing anymore. I have poor self esteem and I'm depressed most of the time, because I'm exlcuded in almost everything and have no friends or ...
As of today, I'm fat, depressed, friendless, and not suicidal but near there. It seems as if everywhere I look, esp. @school, everyone's happy and skinny, and far more perfect than me. It's like other people are T-Bone steaks and I'm just a can of Spam...
What does it mean when a guy tells you he wants you to be more open? There's this guy I've been talking to for a while (I was 17 when we met, now I'm 18 and he's 22) tells me that he wants me to be more open with him. I have no clue what that means. I'...
What does it mean when a guy tells you he wants you to be more open? There's this guy I've been talking to for a while tells me that he wants me to be more open with him. I have no clue what that means. I've been told by friends, and I know this too, t...
I've been talking to this guy I met online a long while back, we met once back when the relationship started and talked on the phone a lot, but after we went out that day, he stopped talking to me, but he'd text every once in a while. I asked him about...
So, first off, I'm 18 not 12. There's this guy, we met back in November, dated, and now we're just friends. He knows I've never had sex before or even kissed anyone (cause I don't trust anyone as far as I can throw 'em) and the other day, he tells me...
Ok...so I've been talking to this guy for a while now. We met back in November and he's older than me. (I'm 18 he's 22). We dated once back then and he never called, but he texted me saying he's always busy with work. I know he works a lot, but you'd...
So I've been on a low carb diet for about 2 months, I go to the gym about 5-6 days a week. But I'm really fat and I feel like I'm not losing anything anymore like I used to. I want to lose 10 or more pounds a week. How can I do this? I don't want to ...
Okay, so I'm 18 and there's the guy I've known for a while now, he's a friend not a boyfriend or anything. I think it's too late for me to have one since I'm going off to school soon anyway. He told me he wants to have sex with me, and I want to but, I...
OKay, so I'm going to go on a low carb diet again tommorrow. I've done it back in 7th grade like 5 years ago. I'm going to have to go it alone so I need motivation to try and stick to it. I got the gym membership now I just need to be confident in th...
See, recently I've had serious episodes of deja vu, one just recently when I was reading a quesion on here and the answers to it, the question and answers are fairly new like within minutes, and I felt like I've read the question and the answers before...
OKay so I'm almost 18 and I weigh about 325. I've been struggling with my weight for 6 years or maybe since 6th or 7th grade when I started becoming so obessed and recently, I've noticed how much I hate being fat and that A LOT of people hate fat peopl...
