| Dear Panel, I was in a car wreck about 18 months ago. Now I have to use a wheelchair. This friend has gone out of her way to show me what friendship means. Well I got an awful crush on her, and I don't know how to approach her. I've know her for 8 years, and I don't want to lose the friendship we have. What should I do? Michael Male, age 22, Bahamas |
|
| Tell her that you really appreciate her friendship and that you hope this doesn't change things, but you might be developing a crush on her. Then perform a wheelie for her with your wheelchair. |
|
| Don't let a disability be your weakness - GO GET HER! |

| Dear Panel, There is this guy, he is a friend of mine, we just started to hang out this year, he is graduating this year and I want to go out with him before I never get to see him again. What should I do? Wendy Female, age 15, Canada |
|
| Ask him out. |

|
| Dear Panel, How can you find the right one? Wondering Female, age 18, Texas |
|
| I dunno, I'm still looking for the left one... |
|
| Don't look. |
|
| Don't take people at face value. |

| Dear Panel, I've been in a relationship with this guy for about 6 months, I met him over the internet. He is 20 and I'm 15. He plans on coming and seeing me this summer, and we plan on having sex. We love each other a lot, I've talked to him over the phone a lot, and I am really comfortable talking to him. And we talk about sex a lot, and he always asks what I am comfortable with. Does he really love me? NicoleFemale, age 15, USA |
|
| Oh please. Ask your parents about this. It sure seems
like you need their advice. |
|
| Are you nuts?! This is serious: YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW THIS GUY. DO NOT HAVE SEX WITH HIM. DO NOT SPEND TIME ALONE WITH HIM. MAKE SURE YOUR PARENTS MEET AND GET TO KNOW HIM. Too many girls are being kidnapped, abused and worse by people they
meet over the Internet. You're too young to judge and to protect yourself.
PLEASE, THINK ABOUT THIS. IT COULD MEAN YOUR LIFE. |
|
| Isn't that the question we're ALL wondering about?
Don't make any promises and see how things are when you're face to
face. |
|
| I think you are extremely stupid and careless.
Come back when you find some sense. |

| Dear Panel, Last week I saw someone that I haven't seen in a year. I ended up sleeping with this man, and unfortunetly, I fell in love with him. I don't know what to do because I know it was just a once in a while thing. Please help me find what to do. Jenny Female, age 15, Wisconsin |
|
| If he loves you too, try a relationship. If he doesn't, move
on and learn |

| Dear Panel, My boyfriend of 6 years, has cheated on me about 4 times that I KNOW OF. Some days he acts like he loves to be around me and other times he acts like he hates me. I mean, I know he LOVES me and all, but is he wanting someone else or another relationship or something? Confused Female, age 20, USA |
|
| I'm sure he loves you. And everyone else who wears a skirt. |
|
| You have a weird idea of what love is, if it includes cheating and betraying your trust. |
|
| If he loves you he wouldn't be cheating now would he? I think you're being used. Find a guy that really loves you. |
|
| Once a cheater always a cheater. Don't waste anymore of your time with him. |

| Dear Panel, I have been with this guy for 6 months. All a sudden he just stopped calling and coming to see me. I'm worried he is messing around. Can you please give me some advice on what to do? Joelynn Female, age 17 |
|
| Find out whether he is OK (i.e. not ill). If he is
fine, then drop him |
|
| Either he's messing around or he's no longer interested. If he feels like he doesn't need to communicate with you, you're better off without him. |

| Dear Panel, My problem lies in my awkward sense of humour. When I meet people I tend to crack jokes and I end up looking pretty stupid from the whole episode. Oftenly when I approach people and feel them being repulsive to me. That sounds crazy but is true. Just a year ago I fell in love with this girl and I tried to remake myself but slowly I returned to my old self. The supposed relationship never happened. You should really help me. Should I suppress my sense of humour completely or should I remain like this forever and die an old, lone, miserable miser? Suicidal Male, age 20 |
|
| Ok, which one of you panelists keeps on writing letters about me? |
|
| There's a third option, y'know: be yourself and look for the people who will appreciate you as you are. They're out there. |
|
| Never change yourself to please someone else. But if you're having trouble getting what you want because of your behavior, you may want to change that. |

| Dear Panel, A girl really liked me and started spreading rumors about me. And I told her I like someone else. Then she told that girl that I liked that her and I did some stuff. None of it is true. But now the girl I like doesn't believe a word I say. What should I do? Anonymous Male, age 16, USA |
|
| Tell the girl you like the WHOLE truth again. |
|
| Buy the girl you like a dozen roses. That'll warm any girl's heart. It would mine! |
|
| When you get older, and people refer to these kinds of situations as "high school" you will know what they mean. For now, just take the high road, and be nice. It'll pay off. |
