"Looks like we have had this conversation before" is this right?
Yes, but "It feels as if we have had this conversation" is better (it's more formal). (⌒ ͜ʖ⌒)-b

when we got a question "how do yo do?" and then we answer "how do you do." its alraight or no? thx
It's OK.
("Much he knew about it himself!") said Miss Betsey in a parenthesis. // Do you know what 'in a parenthesis' means? The renowned Charles Dickens used it in his novels.
It is a word, phrase, or sentence that indicates an explanation or afterthought, e.g., Nan is feeling tired (perfectly understandable considering how hard she has been working) and needs a break.
"Perfectly understandable considering how hard she has been working" is a parenthesis.

"it's not my place" - what it means? (guy said it 'cause didn't tell her girlfriend something important, and when she asked "why didn’t you say anything?” he replied "it's not my place")
"It's not my place" = it's improper or inappropriate for me (to do something). It's a different way of saying "It's none of my business."

"...Mr. Copperfield objected to my threes and fives being too much like each other, or to my putting curly tails to my sevens and nines." What's the meaning of threes, nines, sevens and nines? THANK YOU! ^_^
It's talking about the way in which the speaker wrote "3," "5," "7," and "9." The speaker wrote "3" and "5" too similar to each other; the speaker added curly tails to "7" and "9." All of this displeased Mr. Copperfield. ^^

What does "water under the bridge" mean? I found some people saying "it's all water under the bridge now" on tv sometimes.
It means "something in the past that cannot be changed but must be accepted, forgiven, or forgotten," e.g., During our arguments, we said a lot of mean things to each other, but that's water under the bridge.

Why did u use 'wanted' in ur previous question when it's not happening yet? It was an example. 'if i wanted to make money, i would go to work tomorrow'. I really dont understand how is it okay to use past tense :) hope u'll answer my question
That's because "wanted" and "would" are both past tense. Also, that example is talking about a hypothetical situation (involving "if"), in which using a past tense verb with "would" is common:
- If I broke your arm, would you still be my friend?
- If she betrayed you, would you still love her?
- If I ate your lunch, would you be upset?
- If I broke your arm, would you still be my friend?
- If she betrayed you, would you still love her?
- If I ate your lunch, would you be upset?
"@Fast7Quotes: Please don't look back, it only distract you from seeing what's better in front" it should be 'distracts', not 'distract' right?
Yes. (And that comma after "back" should be a colon, a semicolon, or an em-dash.) ^^

"Does he LIKE me?"
After DO, DOES, DID, DON'T, DOESN'T, and DIDN'T, use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb:
- Did he FINISH his homework?
- Does she KNOW the answer?
- Didn't she WRITE down my address?
