Dear Buck, Hi Buck!! :] So I’m really shy when I’m around new people or when I’m not with my friends. The other day I was with my friend meeting the kids on her block and I wasn’t saying practically anything. My friend kept telling me to talk but I didn’t know what to say, and she kept telling me too and told her friends that I was shy. How can I act less shy around people? Thank you!! :3
Hey Buck! I am at the end of my rope….. my mother has owned her own pizzaria for the past 15 years, and had to let it go, and with absolutly NO break at all! So now I’m letting her rest trying to find a new job, and I feel like I’m doing all the house work to myself, with no one’s help… not to mention all my classes I am working on, now I can’t even go hang with my friends! Any advice on what to do ? Thanks, RJ
Hey Michael! Its Greg! I just wanted to give you an update on a past advice. Remember when I told you that I didn’t want to be set up on a date with a girl because I was gay? I wanted to be closet gay but not a “poon hungry straight boy”. We got a few good laughs out of that comment. Well, you told me that I was probably ready to come out. With inspiration from you and love and support from people I’ve met at your and Jeffrey’s shows, I recently came out to my family and a few close friends. Thanks for always being an inspiration and helping me feel more confidant with myself. xoxo Your friend, Greg Breeden
Dear Buck, I’m a 15 year old girl, and I’m bi. I told my best friend who just happens to be a gay guy. Hoping he would be more understanding. But he decided to tell his best friend who is a girl and a friend of mine. He claims he didn’t tell, he only didn’t deny it when she asked. I still think he should have backed me up and defended me, since he knows how important it is to me. I haven’t talked to him in weeks. Should I be mad? Should I forgive him? Should I be his friend again? He keeps apologizing but I don’t think I can trust him anymore. My bisexuality is really important to me. Since I’m so afraid to come out. I can’t stand the fact that two people know, I was barely ready for one to know, but he pressured me into telling him. Being bi is all new to me. Help?
I have a youtube channel, and i have 43 subscribers. I really want to have more, because i love making videos, and it makes me SO happy. I want to build an audience like you have, and join the ranks of the top YouTubers. How do i go about doing this? How did you do it?- Cecilia (”Stargirlfilms”) on YouTube.
My fiance and I are to be married in the next couple months. What advice would you give to a young newly married couple? Maybe something that you wish someone would have told you before you were married?
Dear Buck, I’m currently in college, and I’m developing feelings for a friend of mine, Emily. She had been trying to set me up with her friend Jessica, but it hasn’t really worked out, I’m afraid to make a move on Emily because of my friend Jake, who is bi. He had to avoid me when I was with Jessica, and later said he had feelings for me, but we settled that out. He had been really depressed lately, but Emily has been his savior, and now he’s happier then ever. I’m afraid what would happen if me and Emily ended up going out.
hey buck!! PLESASE HELPP!!! my three best friends have been annoying me for awhile. they’re all very similar and im the one in the group who is very different and i feel like an outcast when we hang out. They dont share my same sense of humor so i feel like i cant be my sarcastic and childish self around them because they call me immature. and they all try to be more mature than they should be. we’re all 16 and my friends will spend hundreds of dollars shopping just on a whim and will refer to themselves as women and take life very seriously (as if theyre already adults). i try to tell them to enjoy their childhood but they just brush it off and think that they’re always right. and whenever i make suggestions or try to make plans i always get them turned down because they all have very negative additudes towards alot of the things i suggest. im trying to be flexible and make it work, but i feel like i cant be myself around them and that im always being belittled and rejected. what do you think i should do? should i look for new friends or try to find ways to make our friendship work? thanks!! Cameran
My best friend and I have been going to different schools this past year. Since then, she has been acting very different. She recently started smoking– both marijuana and cigarettes. In addition, she is still on probation for stealing about 3 years ago. If she gets caught doing anything illegal she goes straight to juvie!! Ah! I really care about her and I know that this isn’t like her and is only doing it to fit in. Should I try to get her to stop this nasty habit or should I just let her do her thing and stay out of her business?
Dear Buck, I have a problem. Im always the best friend thats a girl. I really like one of my guy friends and he just thinks of me as “one of the guys”. I’m gunna see him tomorrow. How do i show him that i can be girlfriend material?
Dear Buck, HELP! Im stuck in the middle!! I am in a group with 4 friends. My 1 friend Bre has a BF and thats a long story of its own. She has changed for the worse since she’s been with him, she’s a hypocrite, and she doesnt recognize her mistakes. She gets jealous when I hang out with the other 2 friends but she has told me she hates them because she thinks they are doing bitchy things when in reality she is. I want the 3 of the to get together and talk it out while I mediate. Is that a good idea?
Unfortunately my post isn’t showing, so I’ll have to do it by hand.
Dear Buck,
My name’s Kellen, I’m 14, and last April, I came out to my class as bisexual. But for some odd reason, even though I felt comfortable doing that, I never feel comfortable revealing that to people who don’t know yet. In other words, I have many female friends and whenever they talk about like, cute/hot guys, I wanna join in but I never feel comfortable doing so because that would mean telling them I’m bisexual. Is this normal, and is there anything I can do?
I really like this guy, he’s 22 I’m 17 turning 18, we talk frequently and have met irl(we met on the internet). He’s really sweet, but he has a girlfriend he seems really commited to. Ordinarily I would just dismiss the situation and try to move on but he really seems to be flirting w/me at times, making a point recently to know if I found him attractive or not. Not sure if I’m just interpretting these things wrong or if I should take it seriously.
I’m moving, but I’m really terrefied that no one will accept me in my new school. I’m going into JR high. How do i become more social. Everyone tells me to just be myself. But that does not help.
My girlfriend and I have been dating for almost a year now. Our relationship is wonderful and I enjoy being with her so much. My problem is with her mother. My girlfriend hasn’t come out to her parents yet and her mother makes all sorts of derogitory comments about homosexuals. My girlfriend has asked me not to tell her mother that I’m gay because her mother is super religious and would forbid me from being in her house. Every time she makes a comment, I tell her it is offensive to me and ask her to stop. I know I can’t force my girlfriend to come out to her mother but I’m tired of dealing with the comments. Any advice on how to deal with this? Thanks so much. <3
hey buck, I am a new youtuber, i watch every live show you have and you inspire me. I need advice because my viewers are telling me i need to be more ‘fun’ and look at the camera more, what can i do to make my subscribers happy? My life is a bit boring but i do try to add some funny stuff or just sirious things. My youtube channel its just a simple blog about my life. I am in a wheelchair, and im trying to make a difference in my life. If you can i want your help getting me new subscribers.
Dear Buck, My friend’s step mom has some personal grudge against her and always tries to bring down her self esteem. She told my friend, who is a vegetarian, that she has an eating disorder and that she is going to put her in a hospital. My friend defiantly doesn’t have an eating disorder she is just a vegetarian and doesn’t eat meat she in fact eats a very normal amount. She is really upset about this because she can’t confide in anybody but myself but I’m not quite sure what to tell her. Do you have any advice for me/her? THANK YOU <3 ~Kelsey
Hey Buck, How is your weekend? My weekend was a bunch of drama. I came out to my parents today and cried all last night.I couldn’t sleep because I knew I had to tell them or the drama will never end after 3 yrs. Now that I’ve told, how do we move on from here. I don’t know what to do now! I feel much better to tell them but things are weird now and i don’t know how to move on. PLS HELP!!
Hey buck i have a problem with my friends. i seem to make them mad at me alot and they stop being my friends and i have no friends anymore how can i make myself not be mean anymore cause i cant stand not having any friends because i have a temper condition *my question* How can i control myself?*
I used to be in your shoes and I understand what you mean. I used to be very mean,rude, self- centered, snobby and drive people away with my words. The way I got around this was to think before I speak, and think of how people would react to what I say. People would not react the way you think they would and need to bear that in mind. So just try to be more friendly, polite, nice and let people into your life because that’s really all friends want in life. They only want to get to know you!
im a dancer and alot of people say im good and say i should try out for so you think you can dance and america’s got talent but i don’t really like being infront of big group of people any advice?
Dear buck, I i love your shows,they make my day! Anyways, i have had an eating disorder for 5 years now,since i was 12 or so. I am almost 18 now and my parents know about it. I tried seeing an eating disorder tharapist but when my dad met her he told me i could never go back. My dad wont let me get help even though he knows about. I still have my anorexia and im afraid since im so far in to this disorder it will never go away.
Hello Michael, I am thinking about being an avid youtuber and would like some advice on equipment. I was thinking of buying this cool $500 camera for my videos but then on one of yours I saw a FLIP. Do you use these on all of your videos or just vlogging, because you always have such great quality. Oh, and also do you know a good video editing program for mac, I saw some but they cut off the screen in the left and right for some reson from what I can tell on the videos.
Dear Buck, Please help me! I’m 14 yearold girl and I’m just entering high school. I tried out for the school volleyball team. I made the frosh/soph team (which is like the team for beginners). However I always find myself in practice wishing myself dead. My sister is also a volleyball player who is now entering college. She told me to keep pushing and just not care if I’m tired. I asked her if she felt good after practice and she told me that it does. For me, after every practice, I feel depressed and sad. I feel as if there’s an enormous amount of pressure on me from my family. When I tell my mother that volleyball makes me ubhappy she doesn’t take me seriously and thinks I’m just complaining! And last night, I completely broke down to myself before I went to sleep… I feel so alone and isolated…Thanks, and Please help, Buck!
Dear Buck, I wonder if you could help me, Ive loved watching your shows for a while now and i’ve finally plucked up the courage to ask my question.
Im a 16 year old boy from England and for the last 4 years I have questioned my Sexuality, I have recently came to terms with me being gay but my only problem is that I only fancy straight guys. I’ve tried having social interactions with other gay people but we just don’t click and I don’t feel the same attractions that I do from straight guys. It’s breaking me to the limit knowing that I can’t have a normal loving relationship. Im wishing for things that I know I will never get, it also hurts because I know they will never feel the same feelings as I do towards them.
I am outgoing and love to make people smile, I’ve not told my parents about me being gay because I know that they would definately flip out. Ive heard homophobic comments like “Don’t you ever turn out like that.” which really isn’t helping me to be who I am and certainly wouldn’t help my situation.
Seriously I don’t know who to turn to anymore. Can you please help? - Jay x
PLEASE READ THIS I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP… sorry for the caps ALSO SORRY FOR THE LONG QUESTION BUT I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP!!!
The situation goes… my dad left me, my two brothers, my little sister and my mother when i was born (my little sister has a different dad). I am 17 (female) and now have never met my father, i was always told by my mum that he was an alcoholic and violent, but this is only one side of the story. I have a close relationship with my mother. About 3 months ago my father came into the resturant were i work and told me he was my dad, i cried and didnt want to speak to him because i was to shocked and upset, he left his phone number behind and told me to ring him. I spoke to my mother about it and said i didnt want to see him at all. Ever since then people had been saying that they know my dad and he is the nicest man ever! I rung him and we have met up a few times, he is still like a stranger to me After speaking to him i was told his side of the story and i found that my mother was a lot to blame for the break up and everything that followed, she cheated on him with his BEST friend and had a child, my younger sister.
My mum dosent know that i have been seeing my dad and i am teriffied of telling her. I know that neither one of my brothers will want to see him because they have only heard my mums side of the story, they dont want to hear his side. I blame my mum secretly for everything and find myself getting mad at her easily and we dont have such a close relationship anymore. I dont know how to tell her or even if i should, im affraid that she would throw me out the house and never speak to me, im almost 18 and legally aloud to live on my own with my own rules. My dad dose drink every day but not getting drunk or out of control. I want to see my dad but i dont want to lose the rest of my family. I do feel sorry for him because he never remarried or anything like that, he hasnt been with another woman since my mum (the were married at 16 and divorced at 34, he is now in his early 60’s), i feel sorry for him because im the only family he has. Is it wrong to blame my mother even tho she was trying to look out for me and i do love her for bringing me up the way she has.
Dear Buck, My friends often come to me for advice, and typically, I’m happy to help. However, one of my friends, who’s very nice but dumb as a rock, is constantly asking me for my help. I’ve been happy to help her, but typically, she’s been coming to me with the exact same problems, and all I can do is give her the same advice, which satisfies her for a while, but not for long. How can I nicely tell my friend that I wish she’d leave me alone for once and that I really can’t help her anymore?! Love, mary (marebear392 on youtube)
I have just recently told my dad that I am lesbian and I’m trying to figure out a good way to tell my mom as well. My dad lives in Massachusetts and I live in Washington State with my mom and older sister. It was relatively easy to tell my dad because I did it over email, but I get the feeling it will be more difficult to tell my mom since it would be face to face. I’m not worried that anything bad will come of me telling her or any of my other family members on this side of the country because they are all very open-minded. What I’m worried about is how I should go about it in a not-so-awkward ‘Hey, I’m lesbian. Can you pass the pepper?’ kind of way. I’m the type of person who can’t stand awkward situations unless I created that atmosphere on purpose.
Anyway, I love you, you are awesome, and it would be fabulous if you could help me out.
Dear Buck, Ever since I was little I’ve been a picky eater. My mom tried to get me to branch out but I never really changed. Now I’m 21 and really only eat pasta, take out, hot dogs, cereal, and smoothies. I’m aware that this is really unhealthy, and I have the extra pounds to show for it. I really want to try new food and fix my eating habits, but I get scared that my body will reject the food and I’ll throw up. My boyfriend doesn’t care about my chubbiness and tries to help me, but I’m a big girl and should be able to do this myself. I want to be skinnier and I also don’t want to pass this on to any kids I might have. How can I start on the road to trying new things and fix my disorder?
Anything would be appreciated, since I really just feel lost and mentally blocked about it. Thank you so much!

Dear Buck,
Hi Buck!! :]
So I’m really shy when I’m around new people or when I’m not with my friends. The other day I was with my friend meeting the kids on her block and I wasn’t saying practically anything. My friend kept telling me to talk but I didn’t know what to say, and she kept telling me too and told her friends that I was shy. How can I act less shy around people?
Thank you!! :3

My best friend and I have been going to different schools this past year. Since then, she has been acting very different. She recently started smoking– both marijuana and cigarettes.

I really care about her and I know that this isn’t like her and is only doing it to fit in.

And last night, I completely broke down to myself before I went to sleep… I feel so alone and isolated…Thanks, and Please help, Buck!
Dear Buck,
I wonder if you could help me,
Ive loved watching your shows for a while now and i’ve finally plucked up the courage to ask my question.
Im a 16 year old boy from England and for the last 4 years I have questioned my Sexuality, I have recently came to terms with me being gay but my only problem is that I only fancy straight guys.
I’ve tried having social interactions with other gay people but we just don’t click and I don’t feel the same attractions that I do from straight guys. It’s breaking me to the limit knowing that I can’t have a normal loving relationship. Im wishing for things that I know I will never get, it also hurts because I know they will never feel the same feelings as I do towards them.
I am outgoing and love to make people smile, I’ve not told my parents about me being gay because I know that they would definately flip out. Ive heard homophobic comments like “Don’t you ever turn out like that.” which really isn’t helping me to be who I am and certainly wouldn’t help my situation.
Seriously I don’t know who to turn to anymore.
Can you please help?

PLEASE READ THIS I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP… sorry for the caps
ALSO SORRY FOR THE LONG QUESTION BUT I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP!!!
The situation goes… my dad left me, my two brothers, my little sister and my mother when i was born (my little sister has a different dad). I am 17 (female) and now have never met my father, i was always told by my mum that he was an alcoholic and violent, but this is only one side of the story. I have a close relationship with my mother. About 3 months ago my father came into the resturant were i work and told me he was my dad, i cried and didnt want to speak to him because i was to shocked and upset, he left his phone number behind and told me to ring him. I spoke to my mother about it and said i didnt want to see him at all.
After speaking to him i was told his side of the story and i found that my mother was a lot to blame for the break up and everything that followed, she cheated on him with his BEST friend and had a child, my younger sister.
Ever since then people had been saying that they know my dad and he is the nicest man ever!
I rung him and we have met up a few times, he is still like a stranger to me
My mum dosent know that i have been seeing my dad and i am teriffied of telling her.
I know that neither one of my brothers will want to see him because they have only heard my mums side of the story, they dont want to hear his side.
I blame my mum secretly for everything and find myself getting mad at her easily and we dont have such a close relationship anymore.
I dont know how to tell her or even if i should, im affraid that she would throw me out the house and never speak to me, im almost 18 and legally aloud to live on my own with my own rules.
My dad dose drink every day but not getting drunk or out of control.
I want to see my dad but i dont want to lose the rest of my family.
I do feel sorry for him because he never remarried or anything like that, he hasnt been with another woman since my mum (the were married at 16 and divorced at 34, he is now in his early 60’s), i feel sorry for him because im the only family he has.
Is it wrong to blame my mother even tho she was trying to look out for me and i do love her for bringing me up the way she has.
WHAT SHOULD I DO? PLEASE HELP
Dear Buck,
My friends often come to me for advice, and typically, I’m happy to help. However, one of my friends, who’s very nice but dumb as a rock, is constantly asking me for my help. I’ve been happy to help her, but typically, she’s been coming to me with the exact same problems, and all I can do is give her the same advice, which satisfies her for a while, but not for long. How can I nicely tell my friend that I wish she’d leave me alone for once and that I really can’t help her anymore?!
Love,
mary

Dear Buck,
I have just recently told my dad that I am lesbian and I’m trying to figure out a good way to tell my mom as well. My dad lives in Massachusetts and I live in Washington State with my mom and older sister. It was relatively easy to tell my dad because I did it over email, but I get the feeling it will be more difficult to tell my mom since it would be face to face. I’m not worried that anything bad will come of me telling her or any of my other family members on this side of the country because they are all very open-minded. What I’m worried about is how I should go about it in a not-so-awkward ‘Hey, I’m lesbian. Can you pass the pepper?’ kind of way. I’m the type of person who can’t stand awkward situations unless I created that atmosphere on purpose.
Anyway, I love you, you are awesome, and it would be fabulous if you could help me out.
Love, Gabriella
Dear Buck,
Ever since I was little I’ve been a picky eater. My mom tried to get me to branch out but I never really changed. Now I’m 21 and really only eat pasta, take out, hot dogs, cereal, and smoothies. I’m aware that this is really unhealthy, and I have the extra pounds to show for it. I really want to try new food and fix my eating habits, but I get scared that my body will reject the food and I’ll throw up. My boyfriend doesn’t care about my chubbiness and tries to help me, but I’m a big girl and should be able to do this myself. I want to be skinnier and I also don’t want to pass this on to any kids I might have. How can I start on the road to trying new things and fix my disorder?
Anything would be appreciated, since I really just feel lost and mentally blocked about it. Thank you so much!
Love, Abi
Tucked away in our nike air max 2010 mens running shoes subconscious is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long nike air max 2010 trip that spans the continent. We are traveling by train. Out air max 2009 windows, we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at nike red air max 2009 crossing, of cattle grazing on air max 95 black distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, of row upon nike air 95 row of corn and wheat, of flatlands and valleys, of mountains and rolling air max 90 hillsides, of city skylines and village halls. But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain blue air max 90 for women day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station.

How restlessly we pace the aisles, bing the minutes for nike air max light shoes loitering –waiting, waiting, waiting for womens nike air max station.Sooner or later, we must realize there is no station, no one air max ltd classic place to arrive at once and for all.

Life must be lived as we go along. The station will come men air max shoes soon enough. http://www.sellnikeairmax.com/ LIJ
