They always smile at you when others are around but show you their true color when you're both alone.
One day they ask for a favor. Their folks are coming to town and they ask you to be their date for six months.

But now, they bring out a contract worth $70,000. And only ask that you tell no soul how this comes about.
Also stated in the contract, if their folks mention marriage, you have to go on with it (marry him/her) and after two years you're free to get a divorce!
Will you sign the contract?

PHYSICAL INTIMIDATION.

I'm sure you are quite familiar with the term 'BULLYING'. Unfortunately you won't find one who doesn't know about this. You may not have witnessed or experienced it but that is not a possibility that you haven't heard of it.
The biggest joke is that the place where you learn, I mean school, is the first-hand experience anyone gets of bullying. As a girl I don't think we all are strangers to ragging. There is very little difference between them.

While ragging is harassment, bullying is making life unpleasant of some other human being.
This needed to be addressed.
We are all guilty of bullying one way or another. Apart from the weak souls and the pure ones, I won't be surprised to find many of our readers being bullies once.
I was.
I am ashamed of it.
I was small. Nearly 5-6 years of age. There was a girl younger to me whom I used to bully. She used to be scared of me. Later, after years now I am just shaken by it and perhaps even cry thinking of my actions.
Bullying is not easy to handle. Just because we feel we are superior to someone doesn't mean we are. In fact, the ones who are bullied are the real heroes for not telling their parents and tolerating everything. It's not something to be proud of, yes. Nevertheless, if I think of it, it takes real will-power to not punch the 'Very High Almighty' in the face. Not cowardice. Never think you are a coward. You are a brave person. But you are a super human if you stand up for yourself.
This is a very serious and common problem in today's generation.

There are different types of bullies;

1. The one where you are a girl.

So guys who have a daddy kink and who feel doing so is making them look cooler, usually would bully a girl who might not be popular or good looking OR might be good in studies. This is the most irritating types. The girl should probably punch or kick him in the groin and let him yowl for his injured manhood.

2. Discrimination and racist kinds.

Just because you are new to a particular place or look different from others doesn't mean that people have a reason to treat you harshly. If you look at it in a way, I'm sure many of you have insulted those who love Korean culture and songs AND the artists too! We are all to blame here so don't feel shy to pour your guilt out in the comments section.

The funny thing is, we all look different. Indians, African-Americans, British and Americans and the Latinos. Then why bother? It is such a waste of time! Why can't we adopt a brain and make time useful for our life?!

3. The one where you are fat.

God! This is so stupid and bad. I wonder how can fellow humans treat each other this way. Fat? The only reason they are fat is because they don't want to boast of their beauty and personality like the wannabes. As an overweight person myself, I know this. No, I haven't been bullied but I have been insulted....you won't guess by who. My own cousin. Just the one. Fat people look so gorgeous you might want to recheck your eyes! Had they been fit and slimmer, they would steal all the ladies and lads out there.

4. This is most common;The one where you are poor.

Undeniably, we see the ones who can't afford many precious things getting bullied and beaten up by those incorrigible brats who think they are the GODS of the world. However, they are also the ones who would back off as soon as they see the teacher.
According to me, I will only suggest one thing. If ever bullied, keep a steel pencil compass box with you and then hit the jerk on the face or side of the head. (A pepper spray works too though.)
Then you RUN.
I can't stress enough.
Run for your life and as fast as you can. Here's the trick though. Run somewhere where there are other people, adults or teachers. They won't touch you. If they do, contact me and give me their numbers or emails....I'll try my best to ruin their lives. A social media account would be the best!
And if you think you will be targeted again, keep your mobile near you and go to the audio recording app which is in-built in most cases. Switch it on and later show it to your teacher, supervisor or parents.

NEVER STAY SILENT!

The moment you remain silent is where you fail yourself. It is never too late. When you stay silent is when you let the person in front of you win. This person will always bother you and continue to do so until one day you finally break into pieces that can't be glued together.
If you see anyone getting bullied please interfere in their lives. Please! There is only one way to let cruelty not ruin our lives.
Standing up for yourself and others.
That is the rule.
Other than that, I have come to an end to my article. I hope you found it useful and meaningful....
ADIOS!

TEENAGE PROBLEMS

Hi, I am Mary and I'm gonna talk about teenage problems. Since I'm 16 or soon to be 17 so I can talk about these problems since I fall into the teenage number bracket.

According to me during this teenage phase we go through different stuff; stuff that leaves imprint on our lives forever.

The following points are some of the prevalent pink age issues that I think we all go through.

Parents

Ok so let me guess. Some of you who are probably reading this just had a fight with their parents because they didn't get your point. We all go through that thing everyday. At this age we all think we are right and everyone is wrong but that isn't the case. You might not admit it but your parents are always right. Sooner or later you see that and realize you were wrong. Hate to say that!

Friends.

Well you are lucky if you have one genuine friend in your life. To be honest, numbers don't really count; it's the loyalty that counts the most in the friendship. The most common problem as a teenager we all go through is we find a lot of really bad people along this journey. We think that they are the right ones and we'll spend our whole life with them but that's not the case. Some of us get messed up really bad by them.

You all would say that I did this for my friend and that for my friend and he/she doesn't do the same for me.

It's the most famous and common problem during this age. The thing is we as humans expect and when our expectations don't get fulfilled we get hurt. So I just wanna say that it will take time but try not to get your hopes high for anyone. You are all for yourself.

Relationships.

This is something that I have no clue about. I mean the only closure I have to this bond is seeing my friends.

To me this bond is very special and unique one. Meaning that you don't connect with anyone and that there are only certain people you seem to connect with. As any bond, relationships also have their ups and downs and that's part of it. You can't only ask for happiness without having a taste of sadness.

TEN QUESTIONS TEENAGERS COMMONLY ASK.

Adolescence can be funny and scary to others. In this stage of your life, there are many questions, changes, and uncertainties. This article will be looking at 10 of those questions so grab a cup of coffee/ hot cocoa (whatever your preference is), sit back, and enjoy.

1. WHERE WILL I GO AFTER HIGH SCHOOL?

Answer: Where you belong.

One of the main questions every teenage girl has is where she will end up after graduation. Well, I'm a firm believer in the philosophy that everything happens for a reason. I know what I want for my future, but that doesn't mean I'll necessarily get it. I know that no matter where I end up attending college, or what I ultimately get my degree in, my life will be right on track! And you can be just as sure as I am that you will end up exactly where you belong after high school! Whether or not you get accepted into your dream college shouldn't be a cause of major stress in your life, because as long as you stay true to yourself your life will lead you down the path that's perfect for you!

2. HOW FAR IS TOO FAR?

Answer: You've gone too far when you feel unhappy with your decisions.

The question of "how far is too far?" torments the minds of many teenage girls every day! This question applies to romantic relationships, distance from your family after graduation, and school studies. Several factors go into deciding how far is too far, but at the end of the day, the most important thing to consider is whether or not you feel happy with your decisions. If you don't feel uncomfortable or unhappy, odds are you haven't gone too far yet, but shouldn't push yourself any further. Adolescence is the time to discover your limits, and sometimes you should push them, but never to the point where you end up regretting your actions.

3. DOES MY CRUSH LIKE ME BACK?

Answer: There's only one way to find out!

Ah, the classic "He loves me, he loves me not." Only, you're not five anymore, so tearing the petals off of flowers can't determine your love life! The only definitive way to find out whether or not your crush likes you is to ask him or her. I know it sounds scary, but it's the only way to answer this question! Just remember that the worst they can say is "no."

4. HOW AM I GOING TO SURVIVE ON MY OWN?

Answer: With lots of hard work.

The future is such a terrifying concept to many teens that it's difficult to grasp the fact that you can actually survive on your own! But you can, as long as you work hard and make wise decisions. The day will come when your parents cut you off and you're forced to spread your wings and fly. Hopefully, by then you'll be mature enough to handle the world independently, but the transition will still require tons of effort on your own part! Regardless, you will survive on your own, because young adults have been doing it for centuries and you're no exception to the overwhelming majority of capable young women!

5. AM I PRETTY?

Answer: Yes!
It's absolutely tragic how many teenage girls are insecure. I know I've battled insecurity in the past, and if you have too, you've definitely asked yourself this question before. Standing in front of the mirror, picking out every flaw you can identify is natural, but it isn't healthy. You'll only end up feeling ugly, which makes no sense because you are undeniably gorgeous! All women are inherently stunning, and the mere fact that you're alive is beautiful all on its own! So stop self-doubting, self-criticizing, and self-loathing because yes, you are pretty!

6. WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING BEHIND MY BACK?

Answer: It doesn't matter.

Gossip seems to be teenage girls' favorite pastime, so it's inevitable that rumors will surface about you. And naturally, you'll want to know what people are saying about you behind your back. But when it comes down to it, senseless gossip about you isn't something to dwell on. Idle minds make up lies to mess with innocent people, but anyone cruel enough to do that doesn't deserve your time of day!

7. AM I GOOD ENOUGH?

Answer: Absolutely!

Do you ever find yourself lying in bed, unable to sleep with dozens of questions running through your mind? If you do, odds are one of those questions is "Am I good enough?" It's easy to feel inadequate, especially when you're young. Everyone around you seems smarter, prettier, and more popular than you. But as long as you're being you, then you are good enough! I know that sounds a bit cheesy, but it's true. You can only be as good as you were born to be, and you were born to be fabulous! So have faith in yourself, and shed your insecurities because you are good enough. Good enough for your parents' expectations, good enough for your crush, and good enough for your bright future!

8. WILL I EVER BE HAPPY AGAIN?

Answer: Yes, sooner than you think.

It's only natural to feel depressed after a tragic event in your life, especially for teens. Whether a family member passes away, or you go through your first major break up, emotional pain is difficult to deal with as a teen. I know from personal experience that when teens start feeling down, they get into a mindset that they'll never be happy again! But if you're at a point in your life where you feel that way, take heart because you will definitely be happy again, and that day is sooner than you think. Teenage years are full of new highs and new lows, and since they're so unfamiliar, dealing with them is difficult. All you can do when you're unbearably sad is remember that nothing bad can last forever because time heals all wounds.

9. WHO AM I?

Answer: You'll figure it out.

Perhaps the most important question you'll ever ask yourself as a teenager is "Who am I?" You'll have to discover this throughout high school, and the answer will manifest itself in the way you dress, your taste in music, and the people you choose to spend time with. Finding out exactly who you are is definitely a struggle, but I promise that you'll figure it out eventually. You just have to be patient with yourself, and wait until the day your true self reveals herself.

10. HE SAYS OUR RELATIONSHIP CAN'T BE REAL IF I DON'T HAVE SEX WITH HIM.

Answer: Sis, he isn't worth it.

If right from the beginning of the relationship he defined sex as the deciding factor of a long-lasting relationship, then let him go. You shouldn't be forced to make decisions like that because you want to keep your relationship with a guy like that, especially if you're a virgin. He shouldn't make sex seem like the only way you guys can have a healthy relationship. Building trust guarantees a healthy relationship, good communication guarantees a healthy relationship, that chemistry that makes you both feel comfortable around each other also guarantees a healthy relationship.

I hope these questions and answers resolve some if not all of your questions. Till next time.❤️
