Do you think I should use electrical advice from a 16-year-old girl on Yahoo Answers?

Most of her other answers are about dating but she did write a good 3 paragraphs and really seemed to know what she was talking about.Do you think I should use electrical advice from a 16-year-old girl on Yahoo Answers?
Hi,





I would have to consider it carefully, but if you would like to send me the question I will read it very carefully and give you an honest answer.Hope to help.Do you think I should use electrical advice from a 16-year-old girl on Yahoo Answers?
If you own a home and want to learn the proper techniques for troubleshooting electrical problems I would suggest you buy a comprehensive book from Lowe's or Home Depot. It will more than pay for itself. I read many responses that sound convincing but are totally wrong for the question that was asked. I'm not saying this is the case with the 16 year old, but if you really want to be sure, do the research yourself.
If her advice was to get professional help then follow her advice.Other than that, I do not ask electrical questions on this site. For that matter, I usually advise everyone to get qualified professional electricians for all of the work, except resetting something.
first off, i agree with JakFlak...... my personal quote that i use religiously is...... ';Advice is worth what you pay for it';....





not to be glib, as we are all here looking for help with something that we are doing to our homes...... as for me? i answer questions while i am looking for suggestions and answers pertaining to my 1927 home...... MAN did they do things different back then....... and i have gotten good advice, advice from people obviously trying to make ';points'; and then..... REALLY BAD ADVICE that sounded right at first.....





HANG WITH ME! I AM ENDING SOON! take your question and the answer you got that sounds logical to your local Lowes, Home Depot or True Value and ask them if it makes sense....... I use all 3 for ';consultants'; and in general, they ALL LOVE a good challenge, but wont steer you wrong or into a dangerous situation...... they might not suggest it to you, but they will sure as heck stop you from doing something dangerous! and they are FREE!






Any question that contains the words ';Should I';, ';electrical advice'; and ';Yahoo!'; gets a firm answer of no.
Maybe she and her dad or mom share an account?

Advice on planning a sweet moment with a girl?

There's a girl I know, and that I like. She's very sweet. But she's moving away, out of state. The last time I see her, I want to have a sweet moment with her, maybe even leading to a kiss.

You don't sound old enough to be kissing.

Never had a bf before?? guy and girl advice, please? thanks!?

Im a 16 yr. old female. Ive never been asked out or on a date before. I am wondering whats going on, since, many of my friends already have had bfs. I sometimes feel weird or odd to never have had one. I try to be nice and outgoing, but i dont think anyone likes me. Any tips/advice about this?


Thanks so much!Never had a bf before?? guy and girl advice, please? thanks!?
Just because everyone else in your friend circle has had a boyfriend doesn't mean you have to have one too. But, if i was going to give you advice i would say, STAY POSITIVE! there are people that like you, they just aren't expressing it or just afraid of what you will say. You don't need to feel awkward about this at all, everyone feels it at one time or another, believe me! Never say never! Just be you, and people will fall for you. there is always someone for everyone.





STAY POSITIVE!!!

  • Girls, I need some girl advice on this one?

    Girls, I used to like this boy last year but then I moved away and broke things off with him because of it. Now I have been thinking about him alot and spending time with him and want to see him more and think im starting to like him again. Have any of you ever broken things off with a guy then ended up dating them later on? How did it work out?Girls, I need some girl advice on this one?
    I have, and it made me realise why I broke up with him in the first place!





    But then again, one of my friends broke up with some guy. They eventually got back together and 2 years later they're still going strong! :)





    What can I say... it's different for everyone!Girls, I need some girl advice on this one?
    well i just recently moved like two months ago, and i stopped talking to this boy i really liked, but now we talk everynight before i go to sleep.


    If he is still willing to talk to you and hang out with you and stuff, then obviously he still has feelings for you and i think if you both like eachother things will workout in the end, just let time take its time just dont pressure anything :)
    Yes and it worked out amazing.


    Go for it girl! Just make sure you


    are ready and willing to be commited


    to this relationship. Because if not,


    you'll both end up hurt. Good luck! (:

    ask her about general stuff then it should lead into something bigger and better! :)

    Just what you want to see- another pathetic girl looking for relationship advice!?

    I've really liked this guy for a while, and yesterday we hung out for a couple of hours after school. But he's a grade higher and next year I'll never see him because he'll be in another part of the school. I don't really know if I should try to talk to him on myspace or what. Tell me what to do?Just what you want to see- another pathetic girl looking for relationship advice!?
    well....dear if u really like him u should get closer to him and know him better maybe get his number and talk to him more

    Which is the best time to conceive twins for those who have twins a boy and a girl pls advice?

    MMhWhich is the best time to conceive twins for those who have twins a boy and a girl pls advice?
    The time to conceive twins is the same time getting pregnant in general. There is nothing you can do to improve your chances of having twins besides going on fertility drugs that would cause you to release more than one egg each month. Doing that causes you the chance of having 4 or more, though, and a doctor would not allow you to do it simply to try and have twins.Which is the best time to conceive twins for those who have twins a boy and a girl pls advice?
    your odds of randomly having twins is 1:100, its spontaneous usually
    I agree, I don't think there is a way to have twins, it just happens, if you have a high percentage of twins in your family you might have greater chances.
    In order to get a boy and a girl you have to release 2 eggs in the same cycle. Boy/Girl are always fraternal (2 eggs). Fraternal twins can also be 2 boys or 2 girls and they don't have to look anything alike since they are from 2 eggs...they are only as close as regular brothers or sisters would be. Identical twins must be the same gender as they are 1 fertilized egg that splits identically. Either way - you can't improve your chances of twins without fertility drugs...and then you run the risk of higher levels of multiples. If fraternal twins run in your family then youd do have a higher chance of having them naturally...but really in the end just be thankful for a healthy baby and trust that the family that is meant for you will be the one you get.
    There is no way to purposely conceive twins. It's all about CHANCE. You have a *greater* chance if you're on an infertility treatment such as Clomid. Or if you're taller than average, and if there is someone in your mother's family who has fraternal twins as they are the only type that can run in families. You can also inherit the fraternal gene from a paternal grandmother through your father.





    Even then you can't guarantee getting a boy/girl combination.

    Does anyone have advice on how we can adopt a toddler girl, any race without the fees getting too high?

    Our paperwork to adopt a baby girl has been in China since Oct. 2005 with still no referral. We are investigating other was to add a daughter to our family. We are interested in adopting a girl, under 2 years old, any race, mild issues considered. We have 2 boys ages 6 (adopted, hispanic) and 4 (biological) We are open to a variety of adoption situations but prefer to adopt a child who is already legally relinquished for adoption. We have already looked into local social services agencies with no luck. Please e-mail us any information.

    Hi there,





    You should have asked her directly. Don't beat around the bush. I think she might like you, but you need to be confident with yourself. Approach her and let her know that you like her.





    I came across http://www.finalseduction.com and I think it might be a good resource that you can refer to if you want to get some dating and relationship tips.





    Good luck.

    ';witch was 15 min or so long (not the hug)'; that made me laugh. and anyone who makes me laugh is automatically in my good books! So I'd just be yourself, and hope that you can charm the hell outta her. You've got to remember how important it is to be yrself, you want her to like YOU. so don't play games, don't act different. BE YOURSELF : ]]
    Your physical appearance, your face value, your education, your training, your earning capacity, your holdings, your income, your family starature in society shall determine your position and a girl, specially in India, she would examine all this and only then she shall start stepping towards you.
    If you have even have the slightest doubt that a women likes you, she probably does. Women likes to give subtle ques to guys that most men don't actually pick up. I can give you tips of how to keep her interested through the concept of attraction. If you're interested email me at hwasin.ssir@gmail.com, i promise that you'll get much better responses than your question here.
    it seems like she l ikes you but im not surw try to get to know her a little more and try not to ne shy around her. and if she still acts like she likes you then you should talk to her about it then maybe she'll end up liking you!
    she might.


    if she does, i dont know, but you should just be rlllly nice, and sweet talk her. try and throw in a little flirting, then ,you be the one to hug her.


    if things get prettty serious, and go well, ask her out:)


    good luck
    try dropping some hints and see how she reacts, like what about you hug her b4 she hus u next time u c her, or maybe u can brush her hand and c how she reacts. or she could just be a very affectionate person



    ask her if she would like to hang out like on a date because i hug like everyone so i don't know but see how it works

    I need some girl advice please ?

    My girlfriend told me that she thinks that we should take a breaK. She said that she wanted some space. I dont know where to go from here. Should i just start talking to others girls or should i just wait it out ?I need some girl advice please ?
    If she wants some space that means your either on her case way too much and she just wants you to get off her back for a bit or she just has someone else in mind. Its not a law saying you can't talk to other girls, but i wouldn't get into a new relationship until you know that you and your girlfriend are actually over.I need some girl advice please ?
    No DO NOT start talking to other girls! Just give her, her time just like she said she just needs some space! Maybe she just feels like you are together to much. I know couples like to be together alot be to much can lead to fighting in the future.
    give her space, if she wants you she will come to you. in the mean time go a head and talk to other girls just don't get to serious for a while.

    So this girl I know usually stinks in class I feel bad, advice?

    Upon further conversation with her she told me it's some problem she has no matter how hard she scrubs down there it just doesn't smell 'better' plus our gym is second period so that defiantly does not help when she sweats. I know she's embarrassed any advice I could give her? Products she could use to possibly stop it? Her Gynecologist told her everything ;looked; fine what about the smell though doc?So this girl I know usually stinks in class I feel bad, advice?
    Their are so many things out there that can help women that stinks down there..I think she can help it she just dont know how too..If this girl is having sex then she might have something..Omg..I remember it was alot of girl i went to school with that had the same problems..she has a problem and only she can help herself.. Its embarrassing..It seems like she might have a STD if it smells like that everyday..Tell her to get check out she could have chlamydia or gonorrhea and these can lead to PID and that can lead to not being able to have babys..hope i helped you out sweetieSo this girl I know usually stinks in class I feel bad, advice?
    maybe a femine wipe would help, or baby wipes. femine deodorant spray just a few ideas. i have also heard if you avoid certain foods it will get better
    obviously something is wrong if the odour is that bad... i mean, all women have a particular scent to them... but if other people can smell her a mile away- somethings wrong. she needs to get tested and checked..... tell her to see a different gyn.ob
    Change of diet is a good start . Less bread maybe . Good pineapple juice if she can afford it. Pizza /garlic/ strong coffee/ onions. all are smellable through the mucous membranes to others. Smoking is your enemy because it deadensthe smeller. and you don't notice it when it is you and your lifestyle. I burn wood for heat and everybody knows it whereever I go and I am a clean person. My lover girl told me once she could TasTe it in my fluids even. I also like a Vadailea onion steamed in tin foil with my steak


    She can tell me the day I eat it and 3 days later [she is vegan] She is not turned off by it but does notice it. Busch beer is different than her MLD so she knows when I have drank one at the Bar too.,I may have brushed teeth and gargled with Listren. but the old bodily disgharge get s caught everytime.[not that shes in anyway disturbed by it] ...I just know better than to lie to her about anyplace I have been or what i consumed.

    I Need some advice on asking a girl to homecoming?

    so I'm going to go to build a bear, and get a cheetah( her favorite animal) and put a recording in it (Question1- what should I put in the recording) and put it on her desk in one of the classes (Question 2- Should I be in there, or how should i approach her after she gets the Cheetah).


    Thanks and all help is appreciated.I Need some advice on asking a girl to homecoming?
    i wouldn't be there but wait for her during lunch time of u cant meet at lunch after her class or after school...ask her friends where she might be at these times...that way it doesn't look retarded as in why didn't he just ask me his own self if hes right next to me...just go up to her and ask her if she got ur stuffed animal and that she looks beautiful that day...and if she is nervous ask her again, blah blah will u go to homecoming with me...that way she will know u r chasing after her but that ur still perfectly fine with urself...lol...if u were to give it to her in person id do it privately so that she can feel like its all about her and u when u ask.


    for the homecoming just put ';(first and last name of her), will u go to homecoming with me? (ur name)';...at least buy a balloon too and tie that to the animals paw...since they are so cheap and all and it adds to the flare...dress it in a tux like u said...and of not a balloon if they have a flower that u can attach to its paw or mouth that would be awesome.I Need some advice on asking a girl to homecoming?
    ahh thats adorable :)


    make a little tag on the cheetah with a note saying a cute little message with your name on the bottom and on the recording make it something short and sweet like.. ';will you come to homecoming with me? love... tom'; and add something else about her onto it.


    i reckon you should be in the room to see her reaction


    good luck *fingers crossed*


    :)
    That's adorable, in the recording i agree just ask ';will u got to homecoming?'; with a pin that says Robby, oh and but put the cheetah in a really cute dress with a purse and everything.
    naaw thats sounds cute yea putting on a tuxs sound cool!!


    maybe saying in the recorder (will you be my girl??) or ( hows homecoming with me sound?) or want to some homecoming with me) umm maybe you should say it to her or if your shy then the recorder will do fine!!! be there if you want you decisions!!!
    don't be in the room when u have it on her desk and record asking her out, your name, and your locker number so she can come to you
    well leave the recording: will you go to prom with me? and then your a name.. but if you get embarrassed easily make sure she dosent listen to it out loud. lol gooooooooood luck
    aww tht is so sweet .. in the recording put in a sweet way .. ask her out .. and be there so u can see her reaction .. and dont forget to dress her up nice(cheetah)

    I need the best advice on this girl Sha'Breanna?

    I know this girl Sha'Breanna and I happened to notice that she is just like me and I want to tell her but I am scared waht should I do?(Or what will you do.I need the best advice on this girl Sha'Breanna?
    if it was me i would just go up to her and tell her or you could write her a note. you could even have a friend do it for you.

    Girls advice please: Girl told me to call her?

    So, I did. Talked to her a few days ago. And then she said to call her, call her, call her. So I did on the cell phone. Now-- silence. I know, she probably got my voice mail. What my role in all of this. What does a guy do? Or, should I back off and go easy now?





    I like her. But, alot depends on what she does, right?Girls advice please: Girl told me to call her?
    Give it a few days then try again. Maybe she is busy or something. I do the rule of three. Call once, call twice...if she doesn't get back to you by the third call YOU'RE OUT! Plain and simple. If she likes you she will 1) pick up the phone or 2) return your call. Good luck! Girls advice please: Girl told me to call her?
    call again and if she doesn't answer or call back within the next week, just take it as a rejection or forget about her. or if you're feeling a little pissed about it send a guilt trippy text like: ';ur beautiful, but not too good about this whole calling back deal.';





    or catch her in person so she can't avoid u and see how she reacts. be cool, so she can feel bad about being not cool about calling. if she doesn't mention it just calmly mention at the end of the interaction ';oh, i called you a little while ago, didn't i? just wanted to ask you a question, can't remember it now tho';
    Just wait because she's probably too busy and can't have the time to call you back. You can also just try one more time after a couple of days to see what's up or you can text her if she has a cellphone. Don't try to sound desperate by calling her many times.
    give her a chance to call you back. Wait like 2 days then either call or text her again and just be casual and say whats up. you can get a feel for her by how shes acting, if she doesnt respond or is standoff ish, forget about it.
    If it was just one time you called her, she may be expecting you to make the next move.... or she may not be interested.


    It might be a good idea to call her and explain the reasons for your confusion. It will be awkward but at least you'll get an answer.
    well...i cant understand your question but, really, relationship depends not just on the boy nor the girl. it depends on both parties. i think that girl is fooling you. why don't you ask her and tell her that you cant understand what is happening between both of you.


    good luck...
    take time and don't rush but don't go too slow but the right pace for you two, and try going to here house instead of calling her,but don;t do it all the time. GOOD LUCK
    Hi Lojan,


    Why not call her again and let the phone ring at least 5 times..If you like this girl give her time to get to the phone.


    Your Friend,


    poppy1
    don't overthink it. something probably happened to her phone or something. i doubt it's anything against you
    Perhaps she got cold feet. I'd say wait acouple days and see if she calls you, and if not give it one last go and call her and see if she answers. If not, her loss =)
    call ur and be like ***** u betta pick up this fone! im callin ya and callin ya and nothin!


    the hang up and never call her ***** *** again! u make her call u...
    be patient!! be persistent
    Don't leave tons of messages because it will make you look needy. Try leave her one statement message like ';I like ice cream';. If she doesn't respond to that.. just let it go.
    well did she call u even once?maybe she wanted to kill her time with u n now that she has found someone better she isnt intrested in u
    Your role is to just sit around and jack it.
    yup, but don't be depending too much.


    maybe she's just looking for a telephone companion


    let's hope not.
    CALL her



    Call her
    if she's really intrested she'll call
    I'd call her back.
    call her again
    call her


    which is your fear ?


    : )
    she may be taking a dump. give her ten mins.
    U R RIGHT.

  • Girls advice please: what can i do to flirt with this girl i like but casually?

    im fairly confident but am clueless when it comes to flirting. Instead i stumble words or try too hard.





    What flirting tips can you give which are discreet yet let the girl know you are definetely interested?





    tired of looking like just a nice guy that girls think of as a friend.





    help?????Girls advice please: what can i do to flirt with this girl i like but casually?
    If you see a girl across the room keep making eye contact and dont be scared to make the first move. when you start talking to a girl try not to constantly flirt with her but just talk to her then when you are comfortable throw in some flirty moves. remember girls are just as nervous and scared of looking stupid as you are so just be yourself and relax





    oxGirls advice please: what can i do to flirt with this girl i like but casually?
    Not sure how to answer this as i don't know if you know this girl to talk to or not? Just try smiling at her, and if you're feeling confident give her a wink. I love it when guys do that - something so sexy about that and cute.
    um. okay.





    smile at her, laugh with her, compliment her (in a nice way [not in a dirty :)]) and be kind %26amp; friendly with her always, give her attention too!





    thats it.
    Try Complementing her, make her laugh. That would win me over
    well first dont stare at her too much thats really weird not just for the girl but for you to!





    2nd- if you really like her and are confident she likes you ask her





    3rd- crack jokes ( not too pervertedy) there is this person who ists next to me in one of my classes and he makes jokes all the time but theyre perverted and sooo not funny!! i dont think a girl would like that





    4th- oh and be nice to her being rude IS NOT a sign of liking someone
    smile at her nd look her in the eye. make jokes(funni,not offensive ones) nd jst let it come naturally!
    It should just happen naturally

    I need some girl advice on this girl in my high school? Ladies please help me.?

    Ive already had a girlfriend before, im a senior now, But I met this extremely hot senior track star last week and we had a good conversation for 10 minutes, but The next time I see her what can i say really?





    If she is with her friends, Can I say '; Hey ___________ what's up?, if she replies back can I say that I would like to get to know her better and ask her for her Facebook?





    I need some girl advice on this girl in my high school? Ladies please help me.?
    start with saying hi to her in the hallways, then maybe try talking to her in person again. don't ask for her facebook in front of her friends. maybe if you talk to her a little more you could just search her name and friend request her if she has one. I need some girl advice on this girl in my high school? Ladies please help me.?
    Just make small chat-get to know her in person. Then maybe ask about facebook or some other way to chat again like phone or email. Just be sure to talk a little before asking for her facebook-just walking up and saying hey i want to get to know you sounds a little iffy you know? Be yourself and just have a good time.
    yeah that always works. juss be like hey whats up. but my advice would be to talk to her when shes alone and be like ';oh i forgot to ask you for your myspace/facebook or watever'; and then see how it goes. tell her that you would like to get to kno her better after a few times you've talked to her not just the 2nd day cuz that can end up seeming a little creepy.
    Yeah you could do that! After she replies asking the same thing back, or just with her answer, say something like ';Hey listen, could I have your number and talk to you later? I just thought I'd say hi quickly.';





    Somethinggg like that, it'll let her know you're interested!
    okay, see the fact that you are a Sooner automatically makes you irresistable! LMAO jk, but i love OU! anyhow, just say hi, and ask how she is, and be sweet and caring and actually interested in her. get to know her a bit, and then ask her out!
    cute. of course you can! if the girl is worth any of your time she will be happy to give it to you!


    good luck ,

    Any parents out there with advice for a mom w/ a normal, healthy 11 yo girl refusing to learn to ride a bike?

    I know she's convinced herself of far more danger than really exsists, and I also know she could do fine. She already rides a scooter, and she can skate too. She resists all my attempts to move on to a bicycle, which our family would like to do together (if all the family participates) Should I just let it go? I don't want to force her, or do I? Never ran into this problem before with my older kids. It has me a bit frustrated.Any parents out there with advice for a mom w/ a normal, healthy 11 yo girl refusing to learn to ride a bike?
    Hey I did the same thing when I was little. No clue why. I rode a scooter for forever while the whole family biked. My parents would always bring my bike and just leave it in the car. I finally got tired of being left behind (they refused to wait for me except for to cross the street) and I told my parents I wanted to learn how to ride the bike. There was nothing to it since I already had the balance part down because of the scooter.





    I say buy her a bike and have it available. Then leave her silly little butt. She will get tired of being left behind and decide to do it on her own. It always goes much better if the kid decided to do it instead of being pushed (not that you are). Good luck.Any parents out there with advice for a mom w/ a normal, healthy 11 yo girl refusing to learn to ride a bike?
    Please, do not force her. Instead, adapt the family program to receive a skate or a scooter instead of a bicycle.
    just let it go.....
    Her balance might not be as good as the other children. My youngest daughter doesn't ride a bike and I don't think that she should have to learn if she doesn't want to. My daughter is almost 15. Is riding a bike that important in the cycle of life? I would like her to lean but it's up to her to do what is most comfortable for her. There are some issues that demand we step in and make them do certain things. If we pick on them for the small issues like bike riding than when we need them to listen to us on big issues like drugs and sex, they may not listen because they've learned to tune us out. So since it's not going to make a big difference in her life I'd let her decided what to do. If it becomes important enough to learn she'll learn. My mom learned when she was in her fifties.. I wish your daughter luck but I wouldn't push it .
    I'm not a mom... I'm even better I'm a kid(13 years old to be exact-but i act like im 5 :) hehe)





    To help your daughter try this.


    First off double check with her why she dosn't want to learn to ride. She might have heard a scary story about something that happened to someone riding a bike and now she has developed a fear.(My friend didn't want to learn to ride because of a story on the news but we showed her that if you ware a helmet and stay on the side walks when your on big streets we had her riding in no time.)*TIP if she does have a fear and it's become unhealthy amybe you should look into therapy*





    If that's not the case sometimes the child just might not be interested, If this is the case then what can you do.Swimming dosn't appeal to some people so they never learn to swim. What can you do.





    If there is any other reason she dosn't want to learn then try to work through it.





    Forcing her will get you no where if she dosn't want to get on a bike she's not a 3 year old that you can pick up and put down where ever you want she's 11 and is she has a good reason she dosn't want to learn then I wouldn't push it'll just end in an argument. Even if you don't like the reason then encourage her but still don't push her to do something she dosn't want to do.





    Good Luck! I hope you get to go on that family ride soon!
    OK, First off, if she dosn't want to, don't make her! Last April, (Of '06) I fell off my bike, twisted my leg all the way around, broke both bones in my lowed leg, and now have two rods drilled into my bones! I was just riding down a quiet bike path too! No weird stunt crap! So I too have sworn off bikes at a young age!
    she should learn, cuz when she's in high school gym class sometimes they make you ride bikes and if you cant that will bring her grade down. and she should learn now cuz in the future she might be made fun of cuz she cant ride a bike. most kids learn at age 8-10.

    Any advice to a shy guy who is gonna talk to a girl?

    Ok, I might be interested in this girl, and I'm gonna try to be this girl's friend and if I do like her ask her out. But I'm shy and never tried to get to know any girl before. Any advice for me?Any advice to a shy guy who is gonna talk to a girl?
    well first things first... be her friend ans get to know her.


    sometimes you just look at the book and like it without even knowing whats it about.


    so then after when you are her friend, and you still like her...


    go for it. show her you like her little by little.


    ask her out somewhere to eat or walk with her on the beech or ask her to come to ur house to chill. call her on the fone. theirs so many ways you can show a girl you like him. tell her her hairs pretty or she looks nice today.Any advice to a shy guy who is gonna talk to a girl?
    First of all, be confident! ^_^


    Talk about yourself, but also ask her about herself too, because that will let her know you care about what she thinks/likes.


    Figure out what she likes, and talk about it. Be careful not to pretend you like all the same things.


    If she's on a social networking site (Facebook, Myspace.. etc) strike up a conversation with her.


    Get to know her friends, that's usually a clue to what she likes.
    Just try to act confidence, if you're all meek and timid it's showing us that you dont really like yourself, so why should we? I know it might seem crazy, but that's how our minds work.





    I'm not saying you need to be over confident and loud, just feel comfortable in your own skin and show her that you're willing to stand your ground to get her as a girlfriend.





    Message if you need more advice! :)

Thanks!Girls, I need your advice to attract a girl.?
