Marissa

Okay, I feel helpless here because I have never had braces! Can anyone out there offer some words of encouragement to our bb? I sure hope so!

Hey, Marissa, let us know how you’re doing! Here’s a bloggy (((hug))) for you :)

Well, I've never had braces but my friends hav. I guess it'll hurt a lot @ first and you won't eat solids, but you'll get used to it and most ppl hav braces now so you won't be insulted either (most likely). - Amal*F

Well, I've ever had braces when I'm in 6th grade... Honest, it hurt! I couldn't eat anything. My friends laughed at my new appearance...but it was OK, because the result was very good!
So, my advice: just enjoy it! Don't be afraid coz it's for your own good!

Well...you'll eat a lot of soup and ice cream. And break out the advil! They'll hurt for about 2 weeks, and then you'll be ok. Just load em up with wax so that you don't get sores in your mouth :P

marrisa, my friend got braces so i know about them. she said be careful when you close your mouth! she cut herself! but now you don't even notice them!

I have braces and they are not so bad. Believe me, they hurt the first few days but then you just get used to them and they don't hurt anymore. Hope yours don't hurt to much.

Hey Marissa!I've had braces for over a year now.Your teeth are a little sore after you get them on but they'll get better!And it's really cool because you can get cool colours every time you get a change!But remember, brush your teeth at least 3 times a day!Good luck!

Dear Betty,
HELP!!!Lately(past two months)my friends have been leaving me out, making mean comments behind my back, making plans without me, telling the guy who I like that I like him and many MANY other things that would take too long to write!!I really only have one good friend and she's not even in my class!Almost everyone in my grade thinks I'm this big nerd and they are all taking the Mean Girls side!Please Betty, what do I do?????
Desperately seeking advice,
BettyRules

HI THERES THIS BOY I LIKE AND HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT I LIKE HIM AND MY FRIEND ONCE TOLD ME THAT HE LIKES ME BACK BUT I DON'T BE LEAVE THAT CAUSE HE NEVER LIKED A GIRL BEFORE AND I REALLY WANT TO NOW IF THERE A WAY I CAN MAKE HIM LIKE ME BACK SO ITS SOS LOVE MISSION AND I AM OLDER THEN HIM BUT LOVE IS ABOUT WHAT TWO PEOPLE THINK ABOUT EACH OTHER NOT THE AGE SO SOS HE IS A REAL HOTTIE I'M 1 YEAR THEN HIM HES CUTE AND HOTT^_^

Honeslty, braces arent that much fun. When you get them on they hurt, and they also hurt when they are tightened. You can't eat some foods like jerkey, gum, corn on the cob, meet off the bon, etc. Ocassionally the wires will stick to your cheeks. Your mouth will be sore for a couple days after they are on so you might want to stick to soft foods. Also brush and floss regularly or else you could get bad cavities, or when the braces come off there could be a stain. On the bright side, you will get used to them after a while, and when they come off you can eat all the foods you wanted to but couldn't. Just tough it out.

i've never had braces either, but Marissa I hope it all goes well!

m, tel your mom to stock up on soup, apple sauce, and anyhting SOFT!!! you won't be alble to eat food that you need to chew

Hi betty and veronica i need some advise about my friend dharti she called me a loser what do i do and she siad that when people talk to them selves there stupid

hey

Thanks for the advice guys!!! My life is going great!! It didn't hurt when they put my braces on, they weren't sore at all, my crush likes braces, and he also says that he has a crush on me!! :D

Hi betty and veronica i need some advise my bff mom just pass away from cancer and she really wants to talk about it but i think she still really upset !!!:( and i don't know what to do can you give me some advise

Can't say I have braces... sorry! But one of my best friends, Bailey, has them right now. She says they're annoying because she can't eat gum or a few things like that. Other than that, she tells me that they aren't too big a deal, besides the fact that so many people comment on them... gosh, I sure wasn't much help there, was I?
By the way, as regards to the comment posted by "BettyRules," I pretty much have the same thing. There's this guy I like, and he's one year younger than me, and he's a total hottie and I like him sooo much. People say that he likes me, but I'm not too sure because he's never really liked anyone before. Its really the same situation as you...
Betty, if you could please comment on this sometime, I think it would be helpful to both of us, and probably a lot of other people as well.
LOVE your blog, by the way!

Dear B&V

I have a problem. I beg to you, pls do reply to this! I am in desperate need of help! I have a whole lot of friends, and one of them, lets just call her K, doesn't really like one of my other friends, P. K is always saying mean things about P and P is always very unhappy and hurt. We are thinking of taking K out of our clique, but then she has been very kind to us and a good friend! What should I do? Should we take K out, or should we keep her in? I BEG YOU, I BEG YOU, I BEG YOU, I BEG YOU.... PLEASE! PPPPPPPLLLLLLLLEEEEEEAAASSSSSEE! Tell me what to do!

ArchieComicz

hey kgothatso,

well, heres my advice that i give to EVERYONE that has that problem and they all say that it works so GOOD LUCK!!!!!

ok, maybe you should ignore him.....believe it or not! when a guy sees that you dont like em or are ignoring em they usually start to like you and paying more and more atention to you. i've done it many times. it cirtainly has worked for me and everyone else who i've told em to do it.

GOOD LUCK!!!
Xx

hey Bettyrules,

ok, i have no idea whether you believe in God or not....but God will make sure that you get through this all right and also....PLEASE pray and God WILL listen to you....i will also be praying for you, in fact, im praying right now!!! i so hope you get through this all right!!

Xx

Hey PHEM!!!!!

just wanting to tell you "you are the BEST EVER bloggy buddie!!!!" your awsome!!!!!! i have know idea what i would have done if i hadnt gotten to know you! i sooooooooooooo wish that we could actually meet each other in real life!!!!!!

XxXxXx

ok, i need advice!!!

my sister loves to go behind mums back and do stuff which mum would never EVER let her do if she knew Naomi was doing it (Naomi is my sister's name). she used to be very nice and careing but shes lately started going at with this guy who is really wild and can easily sway ANYONE to think the way that he does and now his done that with Naomi. Naomi often stays up till 1:00 in the moning just txing him and she cant ever concintrate in her school work at all because of it. when mum is not home, she always sneeks of with him and then forces me to lie to mum when she asks where Naomi is. i HATE lieing to mum and im also afraid that Naomi's boyfriend is gonna dump her and her heart will be broken. HELP!!!!!!!!

my tried and tested advice to marissa:
Well, the first night you realize how terribly helpless you are. The second day, you are resigned to your fate and are eating blended up foods without making too much of a fuss.
-A tip: make a joke of it with your friends to avoid being teased.
Okay, so braces hurt a lot, but you can get through it, and if you handle it right, you can be the centre of attention for a while. Every time you tighten them (except after the first 8-12 months) they will go back to hurting. Be careful to brush your teeth AT LEAST twice a day-trust me, food stuck in your braces--not fun.
Don't worry, there's a HUGE sense of satisfaction when you get your braces off. Your teeth feel a little slimy after, though.

it just for your own good.you don't have a separated teeth not like mine.hahaha just joking

I never had braces either but I thought I saw a poster in a dentists office about invisible braces? I'm not sure but you can ask. I'm not sure about this either but I'm guessing there's also those new braces where you can take off when you eat or something. I could be wrong but you could ask the dentist and what other kind of braces there are.

**tight hugs** :) Good luck bloggy buddy. ;/ Let us know how it goes.

Heya guys!!!!:D

Well, BettyRules, these girls are not nice at all. My suggestion would be to dump these girls and find some new friends. They can be boy or girl, or in a different grade, or maybe in one of your sports teams. Just remember your bloggy buddies are always here for you!:D

Simone, I would tell your mum. Naomi will get mad at you, but it will be for the best because this boy sounds like bad news.

ArchieComicz, tell "K" that if she doesn't stop making fun of "P" you're not going to be friends anymore. Just ignore her if she keeps doing and stop hanging out with her.

Rose, just be extra nice and caring to this friend until she seems to feel a little better.

Luv,
Cinnamon Apple:)
P.S Sorry for the weird comment yesterday. :D

Thanks for the support Tory and Simone!!

hi betty, it is me cindy. i really want to go to riverdale and meet you guys there but to bad you guys are in a comic. What do you see in archie, because of the freakles?

Braces are hard at first. My denist was nice - he put them on slowly lol. But anyway, for me they did hurt at first, and as I was getting them on, they would tear at the skin inside my mouth and then I had to use wax. Wasn't very fun. That was 7th-9th grade.....I got them off in Jan. and let me tell you - it feels weird to have no metal in your mouth for the first couple weeks LOL

Good luck with them!


Sally

Awww, Marissa! I know how u feel. They hurt a little at first, and they felt like something was sticking into my lips. I've gotten used to them, but I hate floride and rubber bands! (not the colored ones, ones to move my teeth) :-( good luck, Marissa!

Braces hurt at first so get lots of tylenol trust me i have them. But im getting mine off tommorrow and trust me its gonna be worth it. Ive had mine since 3rd grade and now im in 7th grade.

HI SIMONE!!!!!

I WOULD LOVE TO MEET YOU IN REAL LIFE TOO!!!!!!
SO HOW ARE YOU GOING TO SPEND THE SUMMER? GOING TO BEACHES? PICNICS?

I AM SO SORRY BUT I WON'T BE ABLE TO BLOG FOR ATLEAST 2 MONTHS[FROM THE 30TH OF MAY TILL THE 30TH OF JULY]AS I'M GOING FOR A VACATION AND MY SISTER IS HAVING SOME CLASSES WHICH SHE HAS TO ATTEND IN EUROPE AND I JUST CAN'T STAY WITHOUT HER SO I'LL BE STAYING WITH HER,BUT MAYBE SOMETIMES I'LL BE ABLE TO SEND POSTS THROUGH MY DAD'S LAPTOP.SOB!I'LL MISS U SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH.

AND SIMONE,I AGREE WITH HILDA,IT WOULD BE BEST TO TELL YOUR MOM ABOUT IT.

Heey! Okay look Marissa. Braces hurt alot when you get them tightend. But for me they dont hurt at all. When i first got them on they hurted alot and i missed school, But you get use to them and you dont even know their in your mouth. I cant still eat gum, popcorn and sticky stuff. Dont worry about anything you will get use to them trust me:)

Its really not that bad to have braces. THey will hurt for the first few days and then they are fine, sometimes they will geta little sore or something but its not that bad, i didn't even think they hurt that much when they get tightened. Its not a lot of fun but just think of how beautiful your teeth will look when their off!

hey,everybody im getting braces and my dad said that they would hurt im scared please help me im 10 yrs.old


-ASHLY H

Heyy ppls omg ii need glasses i cant believe it ima look wierd wit em on. What should i do mahn im scared of wat ppl might say

HELP ME OUT DUDES!!

I'm getting braces too and I'm a little nervous!

hey Betty? um i know this is kind of a stupid question to ask but how can i make friends? i mean its not like i don't know how because i do have friends it's just that all of them left my school and i don't live close to any of my good friend. the reason why i want to know is because the girls at my school in my grade already have friends and by how it looks they don't want anymore and i've tryed making friends with the boys but they think it's stupid for a girl to want to be friends with a boy or they think i like them and they tell me to go away and hang out with the girls but i can't because they don't like me eigther. i need help.

hey Anonymous,
thanks soooooo much for that advice. i prob wud tell mum though my mum is very ununderstanding so i have trouble telling her stuff. but THANKS!!

Hey Marissa, I have braces, they give you some canker sores here and there but they kind of just feel normal in your mouth after a few weeks, they really actually don't hurt at first they are just well a bit sore. When I got mine off for changes, it felt not normal.

hey kimberley,

well, i thought that when i had to get glasses too. but dont worry.....u cud change your hairstyle to suit your glasses if they dont look any good, and also, there r like sooo many different kinds of glasses, theres sure to be some that look awsome on u. my sis got glasses a while ago and everyone she saw, they cudnt stop raving bout her glasses!!

Xx

Betty,I have a problem with my friend i grade three there was a new student her name was Isabella and I wrote in a piece of paper my name and my crush name with a heart in the middle and i show it to her and i told her not to tell anyone and she did she took the piece of paper from my hand and showed it to my crush it was so embrrasingand i took it back and threw it in the trashbin and i came back to my seat and i hid my face and they thought i was crying and after that a few days later she told the the whole row and after that it spread and she never said sorry till now i only pretended that i was friends with her how can i let her say that she was sorry?

Marissa braces aren't that bad my sister has braces and it does not hurt at all so don't be scared if you had braces it helps your teeth to be straight

i have a baby sis named erin and an older sis named julie julie is maen and erin is high matanence or very controling and they always scream at me one of thm douse it beacause i talk to them the other beacause i cant understand her what should i do
