1 - Yeah, I was gutted when Sirius died because it meant he and Lupin would never get it together. Heh. Okay, so I guess (getting into this now) I've always been a Ron/Hermionie shipper (I've never really understood what this whole shipping business is about but I've grasped enough to realise that that's what it means). Although Ron will have to do a lot of growing up before he's worth her bother. By the way, in book six, anybody else notice that even Harry was a bit of a Ron/Hermionie shipper?

2 - That's incredibly brave. Don't be afraid, and good luck.

3 - This is the one secret I relate to the most.

In February of last year, I left my boyfriend. There were many reasons; he was mentally abusive, a cheat, a liar, a thief, a drug dealer and I'd only stayed with him to prove everyone wrong. I believed I loved him. However, long before then, I'd fallen in love with someone else. When I left my boyfriend, that was the main reason - I'd been in love with someone else for a year although I hadn't seen or spoken to him in just as long. When we broke up, it was literally weeks before I was seeing this other boy again. In May, he broke my heart by choosing his ex girlfriend over me. I decided I had nothing left to lose. So I wrote him a letter telling him I was in love with him, explaining what had happened the year before, what would happen to our friendship. Everything. We didn't really speak much for two months over the summer, and then one day we were friends again. We never mentioned the letter. I've never brought it up. On New Year's Day, for the first time in two years, he told me he loved me and asked me out. I don't know how this story ends. Some people say you should never compromise a friendship by falling in love. But honestly? I believe if you already have, then you've got to do something about it. If you can't speak to him in person, email him. Just say 'about that letter...' and hope that he picks up there. Or else, write him another. Whatever happens, don't apologise for your feelings. It was an incredibly brave thing to do.

4 - A few of my friends are vegetarians, and most of them used to eat meat. They mostly say they enjoyed it at the time. My little sister has been a vegetarian for eight months and she's nine years old. She loves meat, but also loves animals. Nothing could convince her to try a burger.

5 - There are so many people out there in this situation. I believe that you should always do what you can to make yourself feel better. Psychiatrists and psychologists are trained to recognise whether or not you need medical help, so it can't hurt just to talk to one.

6 - You might have to say something. Or it could struggle on. Don't be afraid to leave someone if you're not happy. Talk about it.

7 - What is a PWP?

8 - Think very carefully about what you're doing. If your marriage is important to you, back away from him. If not, do something about it. I'm not a heavy believer in marriage but I'd encourage you to think very carefully.

9 - Hehe, this was a little funny. I'm sure you'll get over it soon enough, when you can look back and laugh.

10 - You're never completely alone.

11 - Doesn't everyone?

12 - Just take your time. Go at your own pace, until you feel comfortable with him touching you.

13 - No matter how many times anyone says 'these things don't matter', as a chunky girl myself, I'm aware of how I notice it. But really, they don't matter. It's about attraction between two people and that can come through in a variety of ways.

14 - Don't let them find out then. And don't be worried about what other people think of you. As long as you're not creating some sort of hygienic problem for them, what business is it of theirs?

15 - Nothing says you have to feel anything. People get affected by death in different ways. If you weren't close to them, it's little different to someone dying on television. There aren't rules when it comes down to it.

16 - I guess you'll just have to wait and see how it turns out. I'm sure the other person has reasons for choosing you.

17 - I didn't really understand this. But go for it, why the heck not?

18 - I can't really help you be more androgynous. But do whatever makes you happy. If the way you look and feel as you are doesn't, then change.

PWP = Plot? What plot? It usually refers to a story with a lot of sex between characters and not much else.

Won't my room mate know and then make fun of me and tell people?
