Dear Athena,
I just recently broke up with my girlfriend, and now I always see her running around with other guys.
I know we're not together anymore, but when I see her with these other guys, I can't help but think that what we had meant nothing to her.
Breakup blues
Dear Breakup Blues,
It is never easy to deal with a breakup no matter who you are. It sounds to me like your ex is just dealing with the breakup in a different way than you are. This doesn't necessarily mean that what you had together doesn't mean anything.
The best advice I can give you is to keep yourself busy and over time you will be ready to date again.
Dear Athena,
I been dating my girlfriend for a little over a year now, and it has been the best year of my life. I really want to tell her that I love her, but I have no idea how she will respond. Should I tell her, or just wait?
Scared in Love
Dear Scared in Love,
Being in love can make people feel crazy. This is probably why you are so confused about saying those three powerful words. The best thing you can do is just say it!
Dear Athena,
I feel like my life is crumbling to pieces right now. Finals are coming up and I don't even know where to begin. I have a mixture of both tests and projects. Please help me!

Dear Pulling My Hair Out,
My first advice is, breathe! My next suggestion is to take out your calendar and start scheduling. Don't wait until the last minute to start all of your studying. The last minute is for review, not to begin.
Here are some tips for taking test that might make your stomach feel a little more at ease:
1. Get a good night's sleep the night before.
2. Wake up a little earlier and eat breakfast and add some fruit. Fruit contains sugar which gives you energy to get you through the test
3. Bring extra pens or pencils and scratch paper if allowed.
4. Get to the test at least five minutes early. That extra time will help you relax and focus.
5. When you receive the test make sure you read over everything. This will allow to see what is most important and you will know how to budget your time.
Good luck, everyone!
