Is "ain't" correct or incorrect? I've heard it was incorrect but it's in dictionaries and whatnot.
"Ain't" is a highly informal word. It's fine to use with your friends, but don't use it in formal writing, e.g., essays for school.

No need to apologize. "How dare she" is right: How dare she eat my cheeseburger! How dare she lie about it!

After the word haven't, is it supposed to be past tense? "I haven't eaten yet"
It's supposed to be the past participle:
- We haven't studied yet.
- We haven't eaten yet. (Not "We haven't ate yet.")
- They haven't slept yet.
- The boys haven't swum yet. (Not "The boys haven't swam yet.")
- We haven't studied yet.
- We haven't eaten yet. (Not "We haven't ate yet.")
- They haven't slept yet.
- The boys haven't swum yet. (Not "The boys haven't swam yet.")

happy belated birthday OR belated happy birthday
People use both, but "belated happy birthday" makes more sense. (It's a late happy birthday, not a happy late birthday.)
How about using that and this?

Whats the difference between yourself and yourselve?
"Yourself" is right; "yourselve" is not a word: Did you build this doghouse all by YOURSELF? Did you hurt YOURSELF while building it?

i have many friend or i have many friends??
We use "many" with countable plural nouns, so "I have many FRIENDS" is correct.
- I have many pens.
- I have many mugs.
- I have many stickers.
And so on ...
- I have many pens.
- I have many mugs.

what about beside and besides??
BESIDE = next to: I’ll sit beside you on the bus. BESIDES = in addition to; apart from: Besides an iPhone, what else would you like?

What is 'latter' and how to use it?
"Latter" refers to the second thing or person mentioned.
For example, "Jo and Mike are siblings. The latter is older."
In that sentence, "the latter" refers to Mike. (We would refer to Jo as "the former.")

Our lives or our life
If you're sharing a life together (for example, a married couple), you'd use "our life": Our life together has been precious.
If each person is living his or her own life (as individuals), you'd use "our lives": Our lives must not be lived in vain.

It doesn't matter, but if you don't want a split infinitive, "Trying not TO LAUGH" is better. Here's an explanation of SPLIT INFINITIVES: http://tmblr.co/Z90tLy1VWwytx

Either [liv] (like "give") → verb ("We live in Los Angeles.")
