The Girl Cave

[StarTunnel]

Ok I would love some opinions on this little issue of mine: a friend of mine promised me HP midnight tickets for my birthday back in May. Then like 2 weeks before the premier she told me the tickets were sold out, so I got an extra one from a different friend. Fast forward to the week of the premier when I have to tell her I already have tickets and she gets all mad and stops talking to me (after quite a few really mean/hurtful texts). The problem here is she still hasn't talked to me and I don't really know what to do about it. I'm afraid to message or text her cause she'll probably just ignore it or snap at me (and then go vent about me to my other friend behind my back like she did before). So after all that rambling, basically, what do you guys think I should do here?

It's really not your fault at all. She said no tickets, you got an extra, it's just the way things worked. If she isn't willing to put something so petty behind her, and goes to your other friend to vent instead of talking straight to you, then she really isn't that great a friend. You could ask her to go to the movie with you again? I've seen that movie 3 times so far, once with my family on opening day, once with my friends who are huge HP fans too, and then again with my family 2 days ago. It's fun to watch again cause you see things you didn't see before. So just offer to go with her again, and if she says no and snaps at you, obviously she is just being stubborn and wants to win this "friend fight" as odd as it may sound. Being stubborn and wanting to win has no place in a relationship be it friendship or otherwise. I hope I helped.

I agree with this. Apologize once and just say "I'm sorry I upset you and it wasn't my intention", then offer to go see the movie with her again. If she's the type of person who's not gonna let something so silly go, give you the cold shoulder like (lets face it) a third grader, and go b*tch to another friend instead of working it out, maybe it's time to re-evaluate the friendship. I've been in a very similar problem before, and that's what it came down to for me. My opinion at least.

Also agreeing with this.

mnlibzi, you should join us on the Post Wasters thread, I think you'd have fun!

 

[mnlibzi]

Haha I love this thread, but where did everyone go...?

Agreed, but I have nothing to say! Anyone have any good topics?

 

[StarTunnel]

Ummm a topic, let's see... How would you describe your hair and what do you do to care for it... (Sorry I can't think of anything else)

Mine is mid-way down my back, its auburn colored with copper highlights (My friends all call it red) It's thick but dry, and to care for it I use a really clarifying conditioner and then I use an ionic conditioner that is meant for color treated hair (even though my hair is natural colored) and it brings out the copper highlights. I don't use a blowdryer to dry it though, because it breaks the ends of my hair, so I just sit and let it dry naturally, but if I don't straighten it, as soon as I set foot outside it starts to curl up in the front by my face, and gets kind of frizzy in the back. I've decided not to straighten it any more so I have to brush it for a while before it decides to calm down.

Mine is extremely straight, with one little piece of hair right by my forehead that is a random curl. It's brown with some natural highlights (I used to have more but then they went away after I had to dye my hair black for a theatre production my freshman year) and just above my shoulder in length. I don't really do much to care for it - I wash/condition it and let it air dry. No curling, no straightening, no nothing.

I have really thick hair and though i like it better blowdried and straightened, it takes way too long to do all the time.

I have naturally curly, kinda thin hair that is just past my shoulder blades when it's straight. I hardly straighten it though. I use shampoo and conditioner, and I let it dry naturally. My hair gets frizzy/poofy and tangled easily so I use a spray and a cream to keep the frizz and the tangles to the minimum.

My hair is sorta wavy but it frizzes like crazy.

HAIR EXPERTS! What would you recommend to keep frizzing down? My hair normally frizzes after I take a shower and let it air-dry (I never blow dry).

I'm no hair expert, but I'm going to recommend a product I use.

Do you get avon? if so, look for Advance Techniques, frizz control, lotus shield. It's a little orange bottle and the cream inside it is white/clear. It works wonders on my hair. Nothing I've tried works as well as this. It's for all hair types, and you can also get the shampoo and conditioner.

Sorry, guy intruding here, but how do I get a girl's attention and show her I like her and wanna go out with her?

Don't ask me. I try to stay away from that part of a teen's life. Too much drama.

Honestly, I am not the greatest person for advice, but I will help... 1 - Have good manners. Open doors, compliment her, etc. 2 - Cultivate good conversation skills. Really listen, stay interested in y'all's conversations, and remember what she says. If you can remember stuff she says, she will feel very respected and appreciated.3- Be responsible. Don't act too obnoxious and immature and don't show off too much. She could get the wrong impression.4 - Respect her and her decisions. Let her expresses herself and be herself around you. Make her feel comfortable but don't be too creepy!!! 5 - Don't flirt with other girls. She will get the wrong impression and take no interest in you.6 - Take the initiative!!!! Don't be overly nervous and don't make her feel like she needs to take the lead! I hope this helps and I wish you the best of luck!

Don't treat her like she is helpless and in need of protection. Respect her and don't always cave in to her opinions. It will make her see you as simply trying to suck up to her. Than again, I'm not like most girls so I may not be the best to ask.

Try talking to her often, share what you have in common. Take a chance and ask her out.
-Goodluck

Just a general rule of thumb: Never act like the dudes from Jersey Shore or Twilight. You will definitely lose points.

But that's just me.

 

[mnlibzi]

Okay guys I need some advice... So I kinda like this one guy but there's a chance he may be moving/switching schools, we talk sometimes and he's a good friend. I know there's nothing I can actually do, but it make's me sad. Any advice for me...?

That's good advice (really).
