Hello. A Male work colleague joined my workplace around a month ago, I've worked there 7 months now but I'm only 17 and he's about 23. He's been took on as a manager as he's had past experience in pubs. When he first started he was quite flirty with me (Yet acts like that with other girls there) he wound me up but I never retaliated I'd just laugh back ( I have a boyfriend of almost 2 years ) He would try to get me to hug him and came over to me and said "cuddle time" and then said we'd make it a daily thing, he joked about taking me out on our day of, he'd say immature things like "is the floor looking as good as you?" Just flirty stuff, he'd push and shove me but he's quite arrogant and obnoxious. I never retaliated back or initiated anything. he knew I had a boyfriend. The day after he was trying to cuddle me my boyfriend came into my workplace just to wait for me to finish my shift as I was staying with him that night. The guy "L" we'll call him was flirting on as soon as he saw me "My weekend was boring, it would of been better with you ;) ) He then saw me talking to my boyfriend and almost immediately after that he turned sour, now when I go to work he doesn't even talk to me just casually or even look at me, he gives me horrible looks, he doesn't communicate, doesn't speak to me, avoids me and is cold in my presence yet speaks and jokes on with everyone else. What's going on? He just plain doesn't like me, I'm still nice to him on a friendly basis always have been.

Hi everyone!

My mother as a "parent" is extremely bad. She is never interested in my life, she drinks every night of the week nearly, she doesn't communicate with me and tries to make my life difficult over all. I have an amazing boyfriend that I have been with just over a year now, his family love and protect me and my Dad does also. If it was not for them I would be lost. My Dad does the things he has to for me (Gets me my essentials, clothes if I need them, encourages me to do well, dental appointments) My mum never cares. She's too wrapped up in any man that she meets and puts them first rather than putting her only child first. My mum snaps at me every time I try to speak to her and alcohol is a big thing in her life. My mum is really immature, she argues with me constantly not even about any valid point, brings my ex up, slags my friends& boyfriend off to make me snap and even does it on social networking sites. A guy tried to sexually assault me when I was drunk 2 weeks ago when my bf was on holiday and she kept inviting him back to the house and was paying him to do our garden even though she knew about what he tried. She blamed me for something he did and had his back when she's meant to be my mum and it was not my fault at all. I have had to move in with my dad and his wife as of yesterday. They don't live close and don't have a lot of room but we are going to make it work, I have had no contact since Thursday. How do I stop worrying about all of this?

Hello :) me and my boyfriend have been together 2 years 2 months, we love each other more than anything he's nearly 17 and I'm nearly 16, I know it's not great that I'm under age but I trust him and he's my first and only, I haven't slept with anyone else and it took me and him a year to finally actually sleep together. He's just told me his mum has found out, will she think differently of me? I love her son more than anything and I've never done anything to hurt him. Will she think I'm a **** or something? I have to see her soon and I'm unsure what to do, she's very strict! And she's protective over her son he's her youngest of 3, her other sons are late twenties. Nervous? His mum found out tonight at a family meal because their all drunk and my boyfriend came out with it somehow I'm waiting to hear, his gran, brother and brothers girlfriend would of heard too ? Help please thankyou

I eat normally every day about 1800 cal to 200, I'm 15 but missed breakfast as I ran late this morning to school(Always have porridge every morning just not today) I missed dinner because of an issue at school (woman problems told me to go home get changed and come straight back) this was during dinner time so with all rushing around I missed dinner too, I got in and had a cheese and pizza sauce panini and then a biscuit later on, then before I had porridge and a biscuit again and that's all I've had and Its too late to eat ATM, I ate about 900 cal but will it be ok just for today? It won't harm me? Thanks :-)

My mum is 37 and I'm nearly 16. She's a horrible parent and she's irresponsible and never treats me nice? Anything I say to her she snaps at me, even if I just say mum? She goes WHAT?! She's nice to her boyfriend though! She makes arguments with me about nothing just for the sake of it and she never asks me about my life or makes any conversation? She's lazy too! She drinks often but she isn't an alcoholic. She's nasty when she's drunk and she's extremely immature all the time. My dad is the one helping me sort my future, taking me places, buying me what I need, dental appointments etc and she doesn't do anything like that? She never cares! She doesn't speak to me ever and when she does she's snappy, she's never been the best parent and she'll call me names and swears at me! I'm a good kid, I pass exams, don't smoke, treat her nicely and I get **** back? She has music on loud on school nights til late on when I have exams and I can't trust her? Does she hate me?:/ she acts about 10!

Hello, I can't sleep because my mam is a ridiculously loud snorer and she's snoring downstairs so loud! I'm not even going to bother trying to wake her up because it causes arguments and I can't be bothered with them. My ear plugs won't even work tonight because she's that loud and it irritates the life out of me, it really angers me so I've stuck headphones in, drank coffee and decided to just try to stay awake until 6am when I get up for school (thinking of not going with my lack of sleep) she does this every night ! So anyway I fell asleep around half 11 and woke up at 2am, I'm really tired but I can't sleep because of the snoring and I'm not even going to try anymore I've tried for nearly 2 hours. My eyes are burning with how tired I am, is there any way to get rid of that besides sleeping because I cant? How to get through school with only 2 and a bit hours? Even through my headphones I can sort of hear her, thanks

Hello! I'm sick to death of my mams snoring! It's ridiculous. She sleeps downstairs and always has I don't know why, my rooms above the living room and she always snores really loud to where I can literally hear it clearly through my floor and can't sleep at night any night! It's ridiculous I have exams this year and school is important and I'm getting no sleep whatsoever. She's the loudest snorer I've ever heard, it's irritating I hate snoring and she drinks alcohol some nights so it's even worse tonight! I just don't know what to do. It's 3am I've been awake since 2am and I didn't fall asleep until 12 so I've only had 2 hours, I have school tomorrow / today and I wake up at 6. I really can't sleep through the snoring it's that bad where it could most likely vibrate my floor.. It angers me so I've stuck my headphones in and made a cup of coffee hoping to get through tomorrow which I doubt I will. I've got earplugs which I have to use every night and it's starting to hurt my ears with how far I need to push them into my ear to stop me even hearing the snoring but they aren't working tonight because she's too loud. She's downstairs and ear plugs won't work! It's extremely loud I don't know how she doesn't wake herself up! What do I do anyone? She won't help me to sleep she won't go to the GP to see what it is, she doesn't care because she doesn't have to deal with it. Right now my eyes are burning and stinging and I'm not even at 6am yet, help please, suggestions?:-( I've tried to sleep and I've given up, the snoring is driving me crazy I've had this problem for absolute years!

Hello, I had unprotected sex about 2 weeks ago. I don't remember the exact date so I'm sorry for lack of information there. I started my period around the 17th of December last month, (Not my first period obviously, I just mean the last date that I started) my period is always irregular and you can't rely on the day it comes but its never really that late ever. It's the 24th of this month and I haven't had my period yet? Clearly I'm late considering my last one was on the 17th of last month and hasn't arrived this month yet. I have experienced sore breasts but I had sore breasts before I had unprotected sex also so I'm unsure of what's going on. Today I went to the bathroom and when I wiped I noticed pink/redish colour, it wasn't blood and if it was it didn't look like period blood. I noticed I'd had brown spotting a little. Now I look and it's a lot of heavy brown looks like old blood on my underwear. A lot of it. I know that there is implantation bleeding to think of but could it be that? Or could my period just be starting late? I heard that if you start your period late it starts brown then gradually reddens. I'm legal and old enough I'm just curious, am I pregnant or not?

I'm just wanting to know what the public think. He's in my tutor and he's been staring at me, every time he says something "funny" he looks at me and I see him keep looking over at me and stuff every few seconds. He's loud/we're in no same lessons and we don't speak. But after his long time of looking the other day in tutor sir said I'd had a detention, so I looked at the list and (excuse my dialect) I said "Ee! I'm pure there" and he laughed and went HA! "Pure" there. And then I frowned wondering why he tried to mock me, why do you think? The next day in tutor I hit the table (just joking on, I wasn't angry) and he'd went "Okay, you can stop abusing the table now" like 5 minutes later when I'd already stopped. Then the next day in tutor again (today) I went "Yeee gan for it!" To my friend, (Dialect again just means "you go for it") And he went "Hahaha, Yee gan for it like!" And started mocking my words again. Its like he notices everything I do but why try to mock me? The other day in detention he was in there too and I'd had my phone conviscated, sir went on it and I went "What you doing!" And then the guy said "Texting (My boyfriends name)" I'm not interested in this guy obviously, I've been together with my boyfriend who I love very much for 2 year and wouldn't get feelings for no other boy. The guy added me on facebook like some point last month, hasn't spoke on it. Why does he always mock me and notice every thing I do and glance? How can he like me if he hasn't spoke to me much? He's done this since last year stared yet I don't know why. I'm not interested like I said and I know your gunna think "Well your asking the question you obviously are" I'm not I just want to see what the outsiders opinion is on this and why does this guy act like this with me?-_- Thanks :-)

Hello there, I know this might sound a little bit stupid but I'm addicted to PORRIDGE.

I started out eating healthy because I wanted to change my diet, My stepmother gave me porridge for my breakfast (I'd had porridge before but hadn't ate it in ages) I loved it, it was lovely!

I then asked my mum to get me some porridge for home so that I could continue to eat a healthy breakfast so she did.

I've got addicted to it and I eat at least 2 bowls every day. I know it's ridiculous but is it bad to be addicted? The box I got was a 15 sachet box about 2/3 weeks ago, and I have 2 or 3 left. Come on! I feel as though I need it and that's the only thing I ever really have a big eager appetite on. Obviously I eat my breakfast, dinner then tea in healthy choices but what's going on, how am I addicted?

My question, is it bad to be addicted to porridge?

Have YOU ever had any addiction to a food?

I'd like to know your opinions, Thank you :-)

If your new daily intake target was 1200 and you had ate 300 calories but then later on that day burned them off. Once you ate your dinner/tea later on and ate more than those 300 you burned off would weight loss and exercise still be effective? Or not? Would it still be calories burned leading to a weight loss? Thanks, I know I'm confusing.

Hello everyone :-)

When I'm in science/R.E/English or any other class this same girl is in I see her glance over and give me dirty looks. I don't do anything to her, I don't even speak to her I don't see why she doesn't like me because she doesn't know me. I just keep to myself and my friends and hang around with the people I'm closest too, which isn't her. We're 15 btw. She's in the same lessons I am with her boyfriend apart from English where he isn't in there with us. I answered a question in English the other day because I got told too, she looked at me straight away and then gave me a dirty look and shook her head whilst she was looking away. What did I even do wrong? I got asked to answer a question, I gave a simple answer. She always sits with her boyfriend and I see her staring at me even when I hadn't looked at her but then later noticed her, then she looks at her boyfriend and smirks. I look over to speak to my friends and then notice she's staring at me giving me dirty looks again when I haven't done anything.

My friend was speaking to her boyfriend the other day, so the girl had made a nasty remark "You've just spat on me when you spoke" to my friend when she didn't, just because she was speaking to the girls boyfriend and he laughed. Is she insecure? I always see her glancing at me. If I walk in the room I sit down and then she's leaning forward to see me, then all of a sudden she starts playing with her hair and re-applying her makeup. What's going on? I get told I'm pretty (I don't believe it I'm not big headed, I just think I'm average) but I don't go to school looking a mess is what I mean. What do you think her problem is? Sorry this is long!

My mums cousin (My older cousin) has been close with me and my mum lately and has been coming to my house alot. My cousin and Mum are like bestfriends, they tell each other everything.

My cousin recently spilled out a secret to my mum (I only found out today) that she's seeing somebody behind her current boyfriends back. She isn't in love with her current boyfriend, but she's in love with this other guy that she's knew for years. I think they grew up together. He's the father of her 1 month old baby.

She's been going to meet him, but last night my mum got a phone call at both 12 at night. And then 1:30 am of my cousins number. My mum came to my room this morning and told me that she thinks somethings up with my cousin, I asked why she said because she's tried ringing early hours of the morning. Then my mum got another text today of my cousins boyfriend, her number again- and it said 'Is (her name) with you because she didn't come home last night, and she said she was with you' She didn't stay at ours last night, but she's told her boyfriend she did. Me and my mum are stuck and don't know what to do?! If we tell the truth to her boyfriend then she won't speak to us and we don't want to lose her. But we can't lie either! Because we're not that type of people. We're also worrying where my cousin is, but we're thinking she's at that guy who she's in love with's house. We don't know if she has her baby with her or anything? If we tell the truth to the boyfriend and say that we haven't seen my cousin then she goes home and says she was at my house, that's going to make me and my mum look like liars? She won't speak to us. What do you advice us we do? Thanks everyone! Am so sorry this is long.

Hey:-) I decided to dye my hair black last year in august. It's naturally a lightish/darkish brown colour depending on when the light hits it. I decided I wanted my natural brown colour back in February. I haven't dyed it since January so it's been about 4 month since. It's still black! My roots are coming through brown again but aren't so noticable. I used the xxl live black hair dye and it was permanent. Are there any ways to get the colour out without bleaching/stripping? As my hair needs to repair fast! I'm at the stage of just letting it grow out at the minute. But it's taking so long and I'm really eager to have it back brown? My friend suggested leaving shampoo on my hair for an hour. Then washing it off! But I don't know if I should? If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it! Thanks :')

I laugh all the time! I'm even smiling writing this because I'm starting to find it funny. I mean, that's not normal? I laugh when I'm nervous, when I'm upset, when I'm happy, Any emotion and I'm still laughing. My ex boyfriend upset me one time, and I was crying infront of my friends. And then I laughed because I wanted to stop crying. I find the way people's expressions on their face hilarious, I find hands funny and the reason I'm asking this question funny. I'm just always laughing? Silly words are the worst, I can't stop haha! And when credits on the end of a movie appear, all the peoples names:L Or if I'm in a silent room and know I'm not meant to laugh, I think of things like 'don't laugh!' in my head and I still do and then I can't control it. I can't hold it in either! I was at a church this one time, and at the end of every single sentence the preacher said 'yup' and it made me laugh. It's like, it's a normal word? Why laugh? But I can't help it. I think of anything, and it's hilarious hahah! Is there anything to help it or stop it? Because It gets me into trouble. At school a teacher asks something serious, I laugh and don't know how to stop:( then I get into so much trouble for coming across as being disrespectful and ignorant. When really I can't help it? My friend dropped pasta all over her. I felt bad but at the same time struggled to keep my smirk or laugh in. Many people think I'm fun to be around, but I think I'm weird and annoying! Help me someone? Thankyou:)

Me and my boyfriend have been like almost drifting away from each other the past couple of weeks, he got grounded and we couldn't speak for over a week so now we've grown apart. He doesn't bother like he used too, and school makes things awkward. Our friends are different, don't get on. We've grew apart, but I do still love him more than anything and I don't want to lose him. he's been getting close to one of his ex's from a few year ago because he's still friends with her, she keeps asking me if I'm still with him and I'm like yeah! Then I found out that they walked home together yesterday when he told me he couldn't walk to the bus stop because he had to get home to go to the vets with his mum for his mums dog. Yet he walked her to her house that was literally 5 minutes away from my house. They were walking linking arms, but apparently my boyfriend looked awkward and didn't want to link her, yet he still did, she's very flirty but she's supposed to be a friend she knows I'm with him! Am I just making mountains out of molehills? Is it really something to worry about? I walked in to school today and the girl is in my tutor, and she was wearing my boyfriends Jacket and I came in and she started sarcastically smiling at me, should I be annoyed by this? That she was wearing his jacket? My friends said yeah, but I don't know! Thankyou:)

Me and my boyfriend have almost been together 1 month but we've knew eachother since the middle of last year and also liked eachother then, I've realised I've fell in love with him and he's also in love with me. I love him so much it hurts but I feel as though things have gotten bad and we've drifted apart. We see each other almost everyday just as we always have, but for some reason things are different... Not so loving and the relationship only seems focussed on sex and not anything else. We used to be able to speak about everything but now since we rushed things (Haven't had sex but almost have) it's changed. I don't want to break up with him, I wan't to solve this! Have we drifted apart because we rushed things? I told him I think we'd drifted apart and he took it bad and went wtf? What do you mean drifted apart? It's upset him and now I feel like I should of never mentioned it and that I caused a dilemma! Can anyone help me or relate?

My boyfriend was at school today and he was arguing with one of his ex's from a long time ago because she was winding him up and calling him abusive names. E.g, appearence and stuff. So he responded back by calling her a fat slag, She grabbed him by the throat and threw his glasses and went to punch him in the face but I wasn't present today so I missed this. I got told on facebook about it by the girl herself (She's my friend, I get on with her and I'm not going to argue with her over my guy, I told her she shouldn't of touched him though) Of course this girls boyfriend has got involved and he's coming down the school to hit my boyfriend, my boyfriend isn't a fighter and he's told me he's scared. The girl's boyfriend is older and he actually will come to the school to get to my boyfriend. I'm actually so worried, I've got a pain in my heart and I feel like crying because I don't want my boyfriend to get hurt and it kills me when he's hurt, I can't stand the fact of him getting hurt it makes me cry! My boyfriend is scared, But I obviously can't do anything about it! I'm going out my mind here, any suggestions what I could do to be supportive and help, How I can be there, who could I tell? Is there a way I could stop this?! The boyfriend has a reputation of being strong and I want to support my boyfriend as I'm madly in love with him. Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

I liked this boy for 2 months and then I found out he liked me. He told me online! And then we seen eachother in the canteen at school the next day, I walked over to him and shouted his name and he stopped, he was looking like ahead of him while he was speaking to me, and I was like turned so I could talk to him if you get what I mean? He wouldn't look me in the eye but he was laughing and speaking to me and we had a conversation. I asked him if he wanted a hug, and he went if you want and smiled and then I gave him a hug. He said "Awrrr" While I hugged him but it was only a one arm hug because he didn't look at me ? he wouldn't even look at me to do that. He's now my boyfriend since yesterday, We've knew eachother for ages but wanted to take it slow so we didn't rush into things. Why wouldn't he look me in the eye? Everyone knows how much he likes me, and so do I? Did he lie about liking me? Or is he just nervous?

Thankyou :)
