I am a girl and I'm 5'10. I really don't like my height because all the guys at my school are Mexican and really short. I feel like a giant all the time and I feel like I scare guys away, and I won't ever get a boyfriend because of it. I need a confidence boost, and idk how.

hey, i know it may feel weird sometimes knowing that you're taller than most of the guys ar your school but if you look beyond the height issue i guarantee that there are some pretty awesome guys with awesome personalities that you can connect to. Height is just one factor, but if you focus on it it can become the only factor and you'll limit your potential for happiness that way.

Hi, I have had a crush for a girl for a while, however she might think of me as a friend. I dont think its friendzone yet, but it will become if I dont start to act. We have been once in the cinema together. I wont see her on Vday and after. Should I send her something small traditionally by post?

I don't think sending her something in the mail would be a good idea for now, instead I will try to talk to her more after valentines day and see if you can set up plans to hang out with her so you can get to know her better first.

I don't know if my crush isn't interested in me or playing games. Today, she said something and I replied back. She gave me a short answer, my friend replied and made it into a conversation. I was trying to tease her after class and she just looked at me. She was talking to me a good bit last week.

hey, thats awesome that you're talking to her somewhat regularly. one thing you could try doing is asking her to hang out with you since she seems like a cool person to learn more about.

I'm in the 9th grade and I liked this cheerleader in my Health class. She and I would have small talk about class. I'm awkward around her. I play around with her when I don't talk to her in class. I been told to compliment her, but it's awkward. How do I talk to her without throwing signs out?

hey, i made a video called how to ask out the popular girl which might be helpful for you here. What i would suggest doing is trying to approach her with a question to find out something about her that you two can connect on. It can be a favorite movie, tv show or band. Anything that the two of you can get excited over, that connection might give you the chance to lead into getting her number or making plans to hangout.

I'm afraid of intimacy real bad. Like, I would like someone and once I get them to like me back, I just back off. My mind ruins me with getting into a relationship. I get shy and thoughts run through my head.

Hey, its normal to second guess or even sabotage what we have sometimes. It might be the fear of things becoming too real for you or maybe you just get bored. One thing to remember is that you are capable of being loved and you have the ability to love someone else as well.

Hey Josh, the girl I like found out that I like her, and she is currently in a relationship. I knew that she was in the relationship so I kept it VERY secret, but somehow she found out. What should I do to deal with this situation and possibly, her boyfriend?

Hey, if she found out and she has a boyfriend, i think i would let it be. There isnt much that you can do as long as shes with him, but i wouldnt deny it if you get asked. There's confidence in defending your feelings, and even more in being respectful of her situation. If they break up, that then leads you into the perfect opportunity to then put your feelings into practice.

Hey, I have a crush on a girl, we have met on a few parties and we are often talking at school. Last week I have asked her out and we have gone to grab some food. Winter break has just started and I cannot see her on Valentines cause I will not be there.Should I text this day?What should I text? Thx

Hmm, saying something big for Valentine's day might be too much but you could always send her a picture with you eating some Valentines day chocolate or candy wishing her a happy valentines day. Humor can still convey interest, without you having to push yourself to be overly romantic so early on.

I'm 14 and I want to stop my porn addiction. Please help:( I've bee. Addicted to porn since I was 7

Hey, if its an addiction you might want to think abkut talking to your parents to see if maybe talking to a therapist can help you. If that seems too awkward then maybe try finding a hobby to do, something simple like drawing or working out and whenever you have that free moment to masturbate, try focusing on that hobby and doing it.

How to overcome crush-related-OCD? It's dooming me so much at the point of severely negatively affecting my communication skills with anyone...

hey, if you feel overwhelmed by how much you like your crush, it might make sense to get invested in a hobby where you can meet and interact with new people. When you have lots of free time to think, you generally stay in the cycle of thinking about one person over and over.

So I'm in middle school, I have a gf and it's not really to serious yet, like we talk and hug. So Valentine's Day is coming up and is it the appropriate time to get her something special with my money or make something really sweet and not to serious. Because I don't want to completely overwhelm her

hey, i think making her something would be the perfect gift. i have a video on 4 gifts you can get your girlfriend for Christmas but it works for valentines day too. Check it out

Ok I'm in middle school and in 6th this girl I like is always around this jock she knows and when not by him she's by her friends the jock and her aren't together of what I know of he's nice to me and all but I can't ask him if they well together. Also if I ask her when she's alone he might find ou

hmm if shes always around the jock then they might be just friends or they may be going out. The only way to really know where she stands is to talk to her and get to know her. I know youre afraid of her finding out if you talk to her when shes alone but that would be the best time, to catch her when shes alone to ask for her opinion on something or to just chit chat so you two can get to know one another.

No it has nothing to do with my BFF its this girl I like BFF and I've already known this girl I like for 6 years now since the 6th grade. I don't want to disrespect her choice even tho her bff who was my ex don't talk anymore I guess I'll just have to get over it :/

If she likes someone else and has openly expressed that to you then i would say you should move on. If its just speculation then i would be persistent and keep talking to her.

Josh what do I do if I'm dating but I start to like another girl every time I hang out with my girl all I can think about is that other girl what should I do

hey, i made a video called "How to choose between two girls that you like" which might be helpful for you.

During the last weeks i got really confused. I dont really know who i like. I want to clear" my mind. Also how do you realise you like a specific one and not just like some girls* (Im a Middleschool boy)

Having crushes for the smallest things is very normal. You dont have to like only one person or even want to pursue anything with any of your crushes unless you want something more. A good way to clear your mind would be to focus on a hobby that takes up a lot of your time, whenever you find yourself thinking about a girl you get distracted by, try drawing or writing about something related to your hobby.

Explain if I become a patron What do I benefit from that.

hey, for patreon supporters i do a monthly one on one skype call with them to check in a give them personal advice. Its set for 15 minutes but we generally talk longer. Im still trying to develop more benefits along with it like featured collabs, shoutouts, video ideas and more. Do you have any suggestions as to what you would want to see as an exclusive for patreons?

Please make more videos related to middle school :)

you got it :) This year im going to really focus on middle school and high school topics.

Help me Josh. I'm the guy who told you I was gon give my gf space since our relationship isn't at that stage yet. I want to let you know I feel a bit guilty for ignoring her, although she usually never texts first I feel better. If neither of us text each other does it mean she DOES want space?

Hmm, if shes not being responsive then she might be getting distant rather than taking space for herself. Have you tried talking to her about it to see if she wants to be in the relationship?

Hey Josh there's this girl that I've had a crush on but thing is she was BFF with my ex I dated In Jr high but they don't talk anymore and this girl I like still doesn't want to date cause my ex was her bff but we still flirt with each other once in awhile what should I do?

Hmm it sounds like she may need time to get over her old hangups, but you should still continue getting to know her. I would also talk to your BFF and see if he's cool with you going after his ex.

Also with the girl likes that guy but the guy says that he'll date her like a date or pass but he doesn't like her and when I was after school. I saw them taking a picture together and they put it on snapchat. And the girl i like has liked this guy for a while

Hmm it sounds like its the right opportunity for you to try and charm her. If he's not serious about her then I would step it up and show her that you are.

What are some reasons to break up with your girlfriend?

I would end the relationship if you feel like you aren't providing the value your partner may need and likewise. This doesnt mean if you're bored or argue from time to time, that might mean you should work harder to maintain it. However, it seems like if youre asking the question theres something specific that is happening for you to want to do it. What wuld that be?

@itsmerickeyt asks, "How do you start your morning?"

Every morning I head to my home office to get my clothes for the day and read the latest quote on my Mister Rogers calendar.

What if the girl you like likes someone else and everyone says there a perfect couple and there goals what should I do?

If you like her then thats all that matters. Dont let rumors deter you from going after the girl you want, sometimes when the girl has a crush on someone else but the guy isnt making a move, its the guy who jumps in and talks to her/asks her out that gets the girl.

What are some ideas on how to get your relationship back on the road? Lately my gf has been acting weird. I assume its family issues or time of the month. Either way I've kept my distance from her since we're not that deep in the relationship that she would tell me her family issues.

If you guys arent that close yet then I would give her the space she needs. You can always assure her that if she needs you, you'll be there for her.
It might take her time to open up but if you like her and care about her then really be there for her if she needs you.
