  • Question
    What should I do if a boy wants to hook up with me, but I don't want to?
    Community Answer
    You can say that you like talking to him, but that you're not interesting in hooking up with him. If he keeps bugging you about it, just keep refusing and letting him know that you absolutely do not want to have any kind of physical relationship with him. If he doesn't listen, then you should get away from him (and stay away). You might even want to warn other girls that he doesn't listen to the word "no."

  • Question
    What should I do if my friends call me while they are at a party I wasn't invited to?
    Community Answer
    Just stay calm and be respectful. You could say something like, "Sounds like fun, I wish I was there," so that they may feel bad and try to invite you to the next party. Then take your mind off things by doing something you like to do, or invite another friend over and have your own party.

    If it's happening often, they're not being very thoughtful or considerate. But giving them the benefit of the doubt, perhaps they think you can't make it for some reason and have gotten into the habit of not asking you too. Have you ever indicated in the past that you can't come along for any reason? Whatever the reason, since you consider them friends, try asking them to think about including you too, for example: "Hey guys, I'd really like it if you could ask me to be part of your plans too. I'd love to come to some of the things you do but I feel that maybe you think I can't or something - please do ask me along too."

    There may be reasons your friends don't invite you to parties - do you make it clear you're available? Do you live close to them? Do you invite them to parties at your place? Try talking to them first about why they don't ask you to parties and clear up any misunderstandings. Then think about asking them to a small party at your place or somewhere like a park or local cafe so they know you're keen on reciprocating.

    If the dress code says it is formal, put on makeup and do a hairstyle that suits the occasion, then put on fancy dresses and suits for guys and ladies.
