Q: Pop culture glorifies relationships. As a single person, you might feel like you’re not normal, but realize that “normal” is different for everyone, and that a significant proportion of teens never date in high school. Plus, being in a relationship comes with many complications of its own. There’s nothing wrong with being single as a teen—it can actually be more fun! If you’re scared of being single, you’re more likely to enter less-than-ideal relationships just because you don’t want to be alone. However, being single is way better than being in a subpar relationship, so don’t settle.  There’s no hurry--you have your whole life to be in a committed relationship. If it happens in high school, great. If not, that’s great too! Some people just want to be in committed relationships because they are too afraid to be independent and get to know themselves. Being in a close romantic relationship can make it hard to separate your identity from your partner’s. Use your singledom to try new activities that get you inspired! Exploring your interests can help you develop a better sense of self, which can lead to healthier relationships down the road. Have you always loved fashion? Consider taking a sewing class. If you’ve always wanted to try hockey, join your school’s team.
A: Remember that there’s nothing wrong with being single. Don’t rush to find a relationship. Explore your interests.

Q: Pick a sturdy box or container with some extra room for packing material around the edges. You’ll want to make sure your books can lay flat and that the edges won’t get squished or bent. Line the bottom of the box with padding. Then, carefully add the books to the container. Add extra padding on top and around the books to keep them safe; bubble wrap, packing peanuts, and crumpled plastic bags are lightweight options. Crumpled newspaper works too, but the weight may add a bit more to shipping costs.  Damage usually happens to the corners of hardcover books, which can get bent (or "bumped" as they say in the book trade). Pay special attention to padding the corners. If you have the space, separate all books with their own layer of padding. One way to do this is to sort the books by size, in stacks, and wrap each stack in bubble wrap. Close the box lid by laying the flaps flush, rather than weaving them together. Place packing tape halfway up one side, across the lid, and down the other side. Repeat with a second piece of tape in a cross shape. Cover any flap or opening with packing tape to prevent something from catching on it and ripping it apart. For extra protection, tape along each edge seam of the box as well, but don't use tape more than necessary. It's a nuisance if the recipient has to cut off yards of tape to get to the book.
A: Choose the right size container. Fill the container. Tape the container securely.

Q: Point out a specific feature you find particularly sexy about her. Not only will you brighten her day a little, you will also show her you find her attractive no matter what she’s feeling about herself. Letting her know she’s beautiful even when she isn’t expecting to hear it will boost her self confidence and make her feel more attractive. Self confidence will help her feel sexy and desirable. . Showing that you are interested in more than just looks by listening to her. Actively listening to what she thinks and feels shows her that you love her mind, too, and that you want to truly get to know her. Demonstrating that you know she's more than just a pretty face can make a woman truly feel sexy.   To be a good listener, don't interrupt, put away your phone or turn off the TV, and give her your full attention. Make eye contact and nod to show that you are engaged. Don't spend the time that she's talking thinking about what you are going to say — this means you are not truly giving her your full attention. Ask follow-up questions like "That's interesting; why do you think that?" or, "Wow, I had no idea. Can you tell me more about that?" One of the best ways to make a woman feel sexy is to show her you’re thinking about her. By sending her sweet little texts throughout the day, she will know she’s always on your mind. Flirt with her via text, tell her she’s beautiful, or tell her you can’t wait to see her later.  If you are at work and can’t use your phone, you could send her emails, or even leave sticky notes around the house for her to find in the morning or when she gets home. Your texts or notes might say things like “You looked so beautiful last night,” or, “I can’t wait to see you again after work,” or, “I can’t stop thinking about you.” Feeling desired and wanted will help a woman feel sexy. Tell her that you want her. Tell her you find her irresistible. Show her you want her by staring right into her eyes when you tell her these things. Be genuine, and she will notice. Telling her you want her out loud will probably have a more profound effect than if you send it over a text. Make eye contact, take her hand, or run your fingers through her hair while you tell her you want her to make the moment even sexier. Say the actual words: “I want you so badly.”
A:
Compliment her when she’s not expecting it. Be a good listener Send her flirty texts throughout the day. Let her know you want her.
