Well..
There is the Popular guy that is an awsome drawer..
Rumors says that he likes me,
Then there is another rumor that says i like him!
Well i dont and i keep telling everyone that i dont, But i really do,
So i have no clue if he does... and now his friends r calling me Names and all,
I invited him to my B-day Party But he said " Sorry but i cant my bro is sick." Uh His brother was at the movies when i saw him, he was in perfect health!
crying idk what to do!

Hmm...
Well Laura, I'm just going to tell you the possibilities okay?

You could confront him, more directly then a birthday party, and obviously, you are going to get a yes or no. Now artist are USUALLY slightly more shy people (Obviously, not always true), and he may so no because you have put him on the back foot.

You could hang back, see what happens with the rumours, and stop denying that you don't like him. His friends may be taking a disliking too you because of you saying that you don't like him.

Also, work out in your head if you really like him, or if you like him because he apparently likes you. This may seem really silly, but I've seen it happen before.

The lie about the brother might of been three things:

1. Different Brother ^.^
2. Lied so you wouldn't feel put off by his prior arrangements.
3. Lied because he doesn't want anything too do with you.


If you do like each other, your both biggest problem is yours and his embarressment. I used to have real trouble talking to girls when I was younger, times may have a changed, but I'm guessing its still alot like this.

There is always the longer option of becoming friends and finding out if you really like who he is or not. This can take time though.


Err... Yeah, sorry, kinda went on there.
I hope the best for you ^.^
I saw your picture on your Profile Laura, you are a very beautiful girl, you could probably get most men your age ;D
And when you get older, well, you will be more gorgeous. I promise! =D

Hello everyone, it's nice to meet you. You can call me Doj.
I've heard of OB before, and it sounds like a fantastic idea.
I'd like to do something like this post-it project at my school. Has anyone got any inspiration for what I could put on the notes and where would be a good place to put them?
I was thinking in the library and toilets. Don't ask why! >u<

Libraries and bathrooms are very popular. 3nodding

Whenever I need ideas for notes I go to the OB blog.

Welcome to the thread Doj! For inspiration on what to put on the notes, you can check out the OB blog, they usually have some really fun and creative ideas. Classics like "You are beautiful!" or "You deserve to love yourself!" are also a stand-by for a lot of us. smile

Hah Aria beat me to it. xd

So, I've started learning the simplified version of Pachelbel's Canon in D for piano. It's really quite beautiful.

Wow that's great! biggrin It must feel wonderful to hear yourself play it.

Thanks! And yes, Wicked is amazing. smile

Now to answer that question in the board's title: How have you grown this year?

Well, I'm feeling positive. I think I'm going to make some life changes for the better. I've lost 21 pounds last year, I plan to lose more. It's been about a month since my first relationship ended and I've learned from it. It's our year everyone! smile

Welcome to the thread! I know what you mean, this would have been awesome to find when I was in the 13-15 area but I still have self-esteem issues so I can still use it now. xd

But knowing that it would have been useful to me at that age also has me motivated to make sure girls in that age group find it. 3nodding

I thought this month we could share how we've improved or grown this year. I know this has been an extremely productive year for me and I want to hear other stories. Feel free to share your stories with everyone, don't feel pressure if you don't want to. If you'd like your story to be posted on the front page as inspiration or a lesson to others or just because please say so when you post your story smile

Like many of the ladies who have been posting notes, I’ve dealt with my fair share of insecurities regarding body image. This summer after a short bout of trying to lose weight to reach an unhealthy size I decided enough was enough. No matter my size, I was never any happier or sadder. I realized it was my attitude I really needed to change. It isn’t the easiest thing, trying to change your opinion about yourself, but it’s worth it to be able to look in the mirror and smile at your image.”
