Heyyy Ladyhawke!

So...I have a problem. I have this friend named Maggie who I used to be really good friends with in elementary school. Now we're in middle school she has all these new friends and whenever I say Hi to her, when she's with her friends, she acts like she doesn't know me. Plus she's super popular and everyone worships her and stuff.

Thanks for reading!

Luv ya Pip,

Kiwi

Hey Kiwi

High school popularity means nothing in the real world. It means jack shit. All the people who are popular at school end up married when they’re sixteen with kids, they stay in their home town and never leave.

She’s not worth it. Don’t waste your time on her – get friends that are similar to you and hang out with them. When you’re older and you’re doing something awesome you can give Maggie the finger in the street.

Dear Ladyhawke

So I like this guy who is in love with his girlfriend. She is just using him though and everyone knows it. She dumps him for other guys but when she calls he always comes crawling back to her. She also wont let him talk to other girls. We're in a team together but she wont let us talk! Advice please?

Kara,

Next time this girl dumps this guy get in there real quick. Pounce as quick as you can. Let him get in there really quick. Let him be as quick as he likes. Prove that you’re better than her.

Dear Agony Aunt
What would you do if you saw your boyfriends toes from beneath the sheets and they were like this???

He said he did it for laugh? I didn't find it funny..a bit creepy in fact.

Thanks,
Claire

Dear Claire,
Even Hobbits can be a bit adventurous with their personal style. Everybody needs to experiment with it from time to time. Whether its haircuts, fashion, whatever. Have you been missing any underwear? Is your razor clogged? (clearly its not) Talk to him about it, perhaps there's something about his nail painting fetish that you can both enjoy........ I'm sure folk from the shire are open to a bit of experimentation every now and then!! :-)

Dear Pip,
My boyfriend spends more time at work than he does at home and I'm starting to think he loves electronic music more than me. He works at a nightclub and if he's not taking a DJ out to dinner he's tearing up the dancefloor or playing with the decks. How can I make him to spend more time at home, preferably without spending money to build a DJ console in the bedroom?

Yours,
Lonely in London

Hey there Lonely in London.

I dont think there's an easy answer for this predicament. However, I am going to suggest two options for you to ponder over.
1) Become a bartender. You can share the same working hours, sleep in till the same time, and enjoy afternoon breakfast dates!
2) Its a common occurrence for a DJ to teach their partner how to spin too (cringe-worthy yes) 'Honey it'd be so cute seeing you on the decks...' etc. etc. However, as gag-worthy as this may be, it is an avenue for you to exploit. You can then channel your frustrations into becoming a better DJ then he is, and that means you'll get to enjoy the late night parties and the tearing up of the dance-floor while HE pines for YOU in your absence.
