Do you consider some of the people you meet and talk to only online to be your friends?
Sure! If we spend a lot of time talking, what does it matter if we've met in person or not?
No. I might enjoy having conversations with people online, but I don't consider someone my friend unless I've spent time with them in person.
How Responsible Are You?
Can you be trusted with the important things, or do your friends refuse to even dare lend you a lip-gloss?
What Can I Do For His B-Day?
My boyfriend's birthday is coming up. I want to buy him something nice, but not too nice, since we've only been going out for two months. What should I give him?

— Krista, 15, London, Ontario

Get him an experience, instead of a thing. That way, it's not like, "Here, have this box and I'll watch you unwrap it and if you don't show you love it I'll be hurt." That's a lot of pressure. So buy the two of you passes to the water slides, or go hiking. If he's more the sit-and-talk type, take him to a swank place for dinner - you know, where they actually come to your table. Besides making him happy, you're giving yourself a gift, too.

— Stephanie Dolgoff
