Cosmo's Factory - Nurse Ansalong Advice Column

Dear Nurse Ansalong:

I got to know this guy that performs at ROCKY every weekend. We've been talking lately and I really like him and I feel I can tell him anything. The problem is that he's QUITE A FEW years older than me (11) to be exact. I don't know if I should just forget about him or what. What should I do?

I put this picture from ROCKY HORROR accidentally as the background on my friend's parent's computer. It's not a really bad picture, but her parents hate the movie. It's still sitting there now and me or my friend won't have a chance to fix it anytime soon. Neither one of us know what to tell them. We're just hoping someone who won't care will find it. What should we tell her parents if someone finds it?

I was the one who wrote in about being nervous over seeing ROCKY in the theatre for the first time. It was great, but now how do I convince my parents I want to go again and more often?

About two years ago I met this woman at ROCKY. It got to the point that I was going to see her instead of the show. After a while, I fell in love with her. Then, I found out that she's gay. We are good friends, but she doesn't know how I feel, and I fear that she'll hate me or not want to be friends anymore if she finds out.

I'm 12 years old and I'm infatuated with ROCKY HORROR. I go to my local theatre a lot to see it. I have a crush on the cast member that plays Franky. The strange thing is that I don't find him attractive without the make-up, fishnets, ect. What is wrong with me???!!

I will be attending my first showing of the RHPS very soon. I'm very afraid of the "virgin" ceremony. What happens at one and what are some examples?

I've heard that SHOCK TREATMENT was originally called "Rocky Horror Shows His Heels", and that it featured all of the Rocky cast except Columbia. Is the script on the internet? And what was "The Brad and Janet Show"?

I am a 15 year old female. Last night I had a dream that I was making out with one of my good friends (a girl). As far as I know I am straight. I have a boyfriend. I suppose I want to know if this might mean I am bisexual. I am so confused!!!!

My best friend is a very introverted person. We've known each other for 6 years already, and I have told her multiple times that she can confide in me whenever she wants. She knows that I care about her and that she's practically my sister, but she never talks to me about her problems. I know that the only person I can justifiably control is myself, but it's so frustrating to me when she tells me that she goes to psychics (complete strangers), but she doesn't open up to me. What can I do?

I recently went through a very bad breakup. It was a heterosexual relationship. Well, recently I have found myself often fantasizing about my best friend, a female like myself. Not just in my sleep, like in a letter I just read, but when I am around her. I find myself wanting to kiss her and touch her and so on. It is very awkward because I have known her for about seven years, and just now started having these feelings. For those seven years, we would joke around and flirt with each other, but it was just joking. We still do it, but now I feel it in a different way. I don't know if she feels the same way. A friend of mine says he told her how I feel. She has not indicated a thing. Should I tell her? If so, how? I don't think it will hurt our friendship, but I don't know what I can expect.

I have fallen desperatly in love with my best friend in the whole world. He is so funny and great, I love him to no end. He is all I think about. I am a bisexual teen, and he is completely straight. I think I am realizing that I can never have him, but I constantly long to be his. I feel really ashamed, because now I feel like I can never have a normal friendship with a guy without falling for him. I am in chaos. What should I do?

I sent the question about the guy that I was engaged to. Well, we finally split up completely and I realized it was for the best. But, I do have one problem. I may be pregnant with his kid. I know that he is not the man I want to spend the rest of my life with and I also am not thrilled about him being the father of my children, but it may be too late for that. If I am pregnant, I don't know what to do. I don't want him to raise my child, or to be my husband if I have a kid because I don't want to put the child through an inevitable divorce. But, I also don't want my child to be fatherless. I know there are a couple guys out there who care about me a lot, but they live quite far from me and I also don't feel right about the thought of bringing a child into their lives. I also don't know what to tell the guy I was with. I don't feel right about saying "Hey, I'm having your kid, but I don't want you raising it." I am lost and con<

Ever since I saw RHPS on Cinnemax last year, I've acted differently towards everyone. The only people who have seen it in my life are my teachers and my youth pastor (that took me by surprise). I haven't always fit in, but now I really don't fit in. I spend most of my time with adults. I have one friend and I know only one kid who's seen RHPS. My life sucks. I'm having fun and doing, listening, watching what I want, but I still don't fit in. I don't get how "Manson lovers" fit in when he's just like Frank. Why?

I recently saw Rocky at the theater, and during "Superheroes", I swear that I saw this (and my Rocky mentor didn't!). Is it just me, or is half of Janet's face burnt off? I could swear that I saw a huge burn scar on her face when she was crawling towards Brad. Am I the only one that's seen this? It's really bugging me that I don't know for sure.

Me and a few of my friends went to Mill to see ROCKY a couple days ago. I was with my best friend, D, this girl that I LOVE, J, and her friend, C. D bought J cigarettes. He knows how much I love J and how much I detest smoking. But he bought her cigarettes anyway. I couldn't stand watching J smoke, so I went and stood by the theater. I know that I'll never have her, but I'm a hopeless romantic and I can't get this out of my system. Should I just let it go and leave J alone? Or should I keep trying? I'm going back to ROCKY in a month and I don't feel I could stand asking her out to ROCKY again. But I'm not just a hopeless romantic... I'm a pathetic romantic.

My stepdaughter and I act in the TIME WARPED cast, I am Columbia and Liz is Magenta. The problem is that Liz is 9 years old and the youngest actress known on record to perform on stage with a live cast. This has helped her self confidence so much! I'm worried because, at 9yrs old, she is mentally a 13 year old and has a 13 year old's body and is strutting around stage in a black bra, bikini underwear and a sheer black see-through thing to cover her. She enjoys it, but am I warping her mind? Also, I would like to know your views on intercast relationships; good or bad?

I have fallen in love with my best friend. I am bisexual, but he is totally straight. I don't know what to do. Now he has a new girlfriend, and I must admit I do feel a little jealous. I'm afraid if I tell him the truth about my bisexuality and my love for him, he'll react in a very negative way. He is the best friend I have ever had, and if I lost his friendship, I'd die. Please help me.

I am in a relationship with a guy. I met another man over the internet and we have long phone conversations all the time, and I think I'm in love with him. However, I also love my boyfriend and don't want to hurt him, but I just don't have the same feelings for him anymore. What do I do?

My boyfriend seems to have lost all interest in me physically. We've been together for a year and a half. We've both chosen to wait until marriage to have sex, but it seems he's not interested in anything beyond kissing anymore. He's far more affectionate in public than in private. I feel as if I'm just not attractive to him anymore. How can I discuss this with him? He attends school several hours away, and is staying up there for the summer, so talking to him in person is tough. I'm worried that if I ask him why we never do anything, I'll come off sounding like some lust-crazed person who's only interested in making out, which certainly isn't true. How can I approach this problem?

Ok, this may sound very strange, but I am a huge fan of Tim Curry, and I think I'm in love with him. At first, I thought it was just another one of my normal 13 year-old 2 week crushes and it would go away soon, but it hasn't. I just love him more and more, and it's not just the whole Rocky thing. I love everything about him. I'm not asking if I have a chance with him or not. I'm not naive, I know the answer to that. But, is it possible to love someone you've never even met?

I don't fit in at all in school. I mean, I have a few friends and all, but I don't really like being around other people and they're pretty much the only ones who'll talk to me. I don't mind being an outcast. But I've had somebody tell me that she doesn't like the darker side of me. Is there something wrong with me? Is it a bad thing to be this anti-social?

My friend, Diana, has met some 16 year old over the internet. She says she wants to meet him, but her sister told me he was an ex-convict. She seems to be in love with his words. He says he wants to come out and meet her. How can I tell her, without hurting her feelings, that she shouldn't get so involved?

A) How come you never answer the letters people send you? B) Where have you been all this time?? C) How are you? Do you like Cosmo?

Was there ever a stage musical of SHOCK TREATMENT? If so, can I bring it to the stage? I'm sure I'll have much support!

Why is it that, every time I meet a girl, we're great for about two weeks, and then they say I get either too impersonal or too clingy? These seem like opposites. Am I just horribly insensitive or can I not handle the female psyche?

Why are Riff Raff, Magenta and Columbia in the chapel scene? And why does the Criminologist point them out on the projector?

At the end of ST, why do the chorus wear straitjackets?

What is the meaning of the song `Planet Schmanet Janet'?

How come there are no references to RHPS in ST? Is ST really a sequel or just an excuse for O'Brien to write another musical using his previous heroes?

1) How did Eddie's corpse get under the table so fast? 2) At the end of RHPS, Brad and Janet are seen carrying Dr Scott from the mansion without his wheelchair. During "Superheroes", when the 3 people are in the smoke, Dr Scott is lying beside his wheelchair. How did that get there?

Why was "Once In A While" cut from RHPS?

I've been dating this guy for over a year now. The other day I decided to have sex with him. I was all ready, but I noticed he didn't have a condom! He wouldn't fuck me with one on! What do I do?

I really like this guy, but he is 15 and I am 13, and I don't know if he would go out with someone younger. Also, I don't know if he has a girlfriend or not. I just like him soo much! When I am around him, I act kind of shy, though, and I just can't help it. What should I do to get his attention?

My parents got divorced 2 years ago and my grandfather killed himself last October. My Mom is now just crying and being upset about it. I don't know what to do. I am a teenager and I think I should just be having fun, chilling, going to RHPS, not worrying about my mom.

1) What is the whole point of the Floor Show? 2) Why exactly does Riff kill Frank. I have heard a few versions, but am unsure of the truth. 3) Why were Brad and Janet going to see Dr. Scott in the first place? Just to tell him that they were getting married?

What should I do about my wedding jidders? Especially since my wedding isn't for two years.

1) I don't have a cast as I'm only 13 and I want one now. 2) I can play every song in the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, including SuperHeroes and Once in a While on the piano. Does that make me a fan?

I am 14. I am bi. I think my friend is, but I don't know. How can I find out??

There is this guy I am in love with. I lost my virginity to him a couple months ago. He isn't my boyfriend, but we have been good friends for a year and a half. The problem is this guy sleeps with other women and I hate that. It hurts a lot when I hear about it. I know I can't do anything about it and I dont have the right to, but I have real strong feelings for him and I dont know how to just let him go cuz I don't need a guy like this in my life.

1) Why do Magenta and Riff-Raff have sex with each other, even though they're brother and siser? 2) I've read the script for "Revenge of the Old Queen", and I noticed that, even tho' Riff killed Magenta for going off with someone else (aka- De Lordy), he actally climbs into her casket and makes love to her! Why?

There is this girl of another race I have fallen in love with. I am too shy to ask her out, or ask if she is interested in guys that are not her race. How can I ask her these things?

I really like this boy "Aaron" and he is coming over Thursday. And sleeping over, cause his Mom is friends with mine. Anyway, I was thinking about having sex with him and I really want to, but I am really young and my Dad just told me the other day that I should wait til I am married. I just don't know. I don't want to feel guilty if I do, but I don't want to rush things.

I wrote a note before about playing all the songs. I have been inspired, and I went out and found someone who would be willing to be Magenta. Where can I get good Cast help info?

I heard that Tracey Ulmann played Janet it RHS somewhere. Do you know which cast? Do you know if it has a soundrack? And also where can I get a video of Do The Swim?

I have heard several rumours that Richard O'Brien is planning to write a third ROCKY HORROR movie, starring the original cast. Is this true? Also, what is this script "Revenge of the Old Queen"? Is it a continuation of the Rocky Horror story, and if so, were can I find it? And finally, Nurse, what are you doing answering advice on your shift??!?!?! Get back to Dentonvale!

I met a guy at the ROCKY HORROR show we have playing in town and we began dating exclusively after a party we went to. We now live together and my parents love him. He is 3 years older than me, but acts about my age. He is fun, cute, and open with me and friends. But, I've only dated him for 3 months and I think he's gonna' pop the 'big' question. Do you think I should say yes or postpone my answer in turn for a couplemore years of dating?

One of my very best friends, the one who actually got me in to RHPS has turned Trecky on me!! :( Please help me! How do I get her hooked back on the drug that is Rocky Horror??!!!!!!??????!!!!!!

Why are men assholes?

Do you think that getting someone to "do the dirty work" (ask someone out) for you is a good or a bad thing?

I just want to cry. I was friends with someone and then someone sent them an email under my name, and now they don't believe me when I say it wasn't me! I don't want my friend mad at me, but I don't know who sent them the email so I don't know how to stop it from happening again!

Why is it that guys can say what they totally don't believe just to get some play????

Should I kill myself?

I still like a boy and he acted nice to me when he came over the other day. But, I am just thinking to myself that he could have any other girl, basically, so why would he pick me? I try to be desirable and stuff, but I just don't know how to act around him so that he will like me. I just want him soo bad. Please help!

I have always had dreams of opening my own cast, but now that a once off cast has appeared, I don't know if I should compete as I live in Wollongong (Australia), and there wouldn't be much urgency for people. Ah, maybe it didn't have a cast. I dunno.

I really like this guy I work with, we have a lot in common, and I think he likes me at least as a friend. But, I want to be more. The problem is this: I'm 16 and never been on a date, never been kissed, never even held hands with a guy... I'm scared to death to make the first move because I don't know how its done! What should I do????

I've always considered myself straight, but I think I might be bisexual. I'm really not sure. Sometimes it really seems like I am, but other times it doesn't at all. How do I know for sure?

I have 2 big problems: 1) I got blisters from a really bad sunburn and now there is one blister left and it hurts like hell and the rest of my back is peeling. What should I do to make it feel better? 2) All the members of my cast are assholes but I need them. A lot of them don't show up for rehearsals and can't be serious. Our Rocky hasn't even come to one rehearsal. What should I do?

I've got a problem. I swear I'm mental. The problem? My obsession with Tim Curry. It's gotten to the point where I've thought about running away to go find him wherever he lives in LA. I've gotten to be completely addictated and dependant on him. If I have gone a day, let alone an hour where I haven't seen a picture, watched a movie, daydream erotically about him, I lose it completely. Am I sane? At all, even a little?? I need help, yours or Frued (unfortunalty, the latter is dead..)...

I'm best friends with this guy who is really shy, and I want to tell him that I am completely in love with him. What's the best way I can tell him without completely scaring him?

My problem is you see... I was with this beautiful girl, but I didn't realise how crazy I was for her. Then, one morning, we had an argument and I said and did some stupid things and we broke up. Now, she has realized that I'm too immature for her (I'm 18 and she's 21). I can't stop thinking about her and I think she likes me too, but she doesn't want to change me. She won't give it another chance, but she wants to continue to be friends with me. And now, there is another girl whom I think I like (although I could just be using her to forget K) but, while K (the girl I'm crazy for) gets touchy and jealous when I mention her, she won't be mine. I don't know what to do. Should I wait and see if things with K get better or move on???

It just doesn't seem like most people are interested in me romantically. My relationships with the ones that are interested had to end or can't happen for reasons such as distance or stupidity. People tell me that I don't need a significant other (I'm bi, by the way.) to be happy, but I just don't believe that this is true for me because I'm so depressed (as well as sexually frustrated). I've had a few close friendships that could have evolved into something more, but I'm always rejected. I really don't think it would ruin the friendship unless there was a bad breakup.

How can I tell if he likes me? I know it's difficult to tell, especially with someone shy, but I don't want to make a move unless there's a good chance he likes me back. I just don't want to lose our friendship. Are there any common ways to tell if someone likes you?

It just doesn't seem like most people are interested in me romantically. My relationships with the ones that are interested had to end or can't happen for reasons such as distance or stupidity. I'm only 17 and I know I have the rest of my life ahead of me, but I've been waiting so long for such a relationship. I've had a few close friendships that could have evolved into something more, but I'm always rejected. Sometimes it's obvious that the other person feels the same way about me, but they still say no.

One of my really close friends, Madeline, is serioulsly thinking about suicide. It's really starting to scare us. We would call someone, only Madeline hasn't really done anything yet, just scratched her wrist with a knife. She keeps an exacto knife hidden in a sock in her sock drawer. The worst part is, it's because this guy, a real close friend of ours, doesn't like her, only she's, like, IN LOVE with him. It's really weird, because he likes another one of our friends who hates him, but loves the attention. So she flirts with him, and Madeline just sits there almost in tears. We've told him but he's an asshole. He's real nice, but he's a pervert. And he is SOOOOO insensitive, he says Madeline will just get over it. Actually, I think he's kinda freaked out over the whole thing. I mean we're all only 14 years old!!!!! What should we do?

My boyfriend is cool and all but now I'm falling in love with Matt, one of his, and mine, best friends. I don't want to hurt him and I love him, but how do I tell him I want Matt? Or do I just take Matt and let him find out on his own?

I love ROCKY HORROR. I live in a small town. I go to a small town school. Here's my problem; I like to talk about RHPS(alot) and I try to find other people in my school who share this similar interest. But, whenever I even ask one of my friends or aquaintences about it, they look at me like I'm some kind of FREAK. There aren't many people I know in my school who have even seen the movie. I feel like I'm somewhat of an outcast. What should I do? How do I try to find people with similar interests in what I like? I'm going CRAZY.

I like this guy, but we are pretty good friends. I'd love to ask him out, but I'm scared as hell to do it. I don't know how he'll react!

I just met this guy the other day. He invited me to come to his house and watch a movie, but my dumb Mom wouldn't let me. Looking back, I really wish I had. Who knows what could've developed? But now he is leaving to go back to Rhode Island, which is thousands of miles away from me. He promised to write me and call but it's just not the same. I can't just get over him like that. What should I do?

I live in San Antonio, Texas, and this girl that I like (alot) lives in Dallas (ALMOST 600 MILES AWAY). I want to be in a relationship with her, but I don't know how I'm going to tell her this. I'm not sure if she has a boyfriend or not. I really love her and I'm afraid that, if I be too straight-forword with her, she might not talk to me. How do I tell her how I feel and how do I find out what I need in order to tell her how I feel?

I met a really sweet, really funny guy online, and I know I can trust him because he's met a lot of people I talk to online. We are both honest with each other too. The only problem is he lives about 4 hours away from me. Still, is it possible to fall in love with someone you've never met?

I love ROCKY HORROR. My problem is that I want to see it in the theatre, but my parents probably won't let me. I used to go to see at the theatre every other weekend at 8:00pm. Then they stopped showing it at the theatre because people weren't cleaning up after themselves. Now, there is another theatre that shows it, but not until midnight. Here's my main problem; I want to go, but how am I supposed to convince my parents to let me go to a movie at midnight??? They are very overprotective of me (but, that's only because they care about me) and they don't hardly let me out even after 8:00!!! I need to know how in the world I can convince them to let me go to ROCKY. I already told them my brother would take me, they agreed, but my brother backed out of the deal at the last minute. I know my parents won't take me themselves.

We're the youngest two in our group of friends and, while my parents don't mind if I spend time with him, they would mind if they knew everyone else I was hanging out with was quite a bit older. This is the first time in my life I've ever had good friends or been in love, and I knew it was too good to be true. Now my mom is saying that, when school starts, I have to be home by 10. Right now I can be out till midnight and even that is kind of a pain when I have to leave before everyone else. I don't want to stop being friends with these people, especially Justin. But they're all in college and they can do whatever they want and I know they wouldn't understand. Now I can't play role playing games with them or watch wrestling like we've been doing all summer and I know I'll die if I have to go back to being all alone. What can I do? I love Justin so much and I treasure every one of my friends, but I don't see how! I can't possibly stay friends with them as long as I can't do anything at night!

I'm going insane. I live in a small town, and I can't stand all the people here. I'm 14 years old, and I can't meet anyone even slightly interesting. Everyone here is so conformist and closed minded. I have kinda out there interests and attitudes, and no one else i know shares any of them. All the people I know are snobs. I'm dying for a friend that I can actually talk to. What should I do?

The cast is having a brief meeting. Several things came up, such as the fact that we did fairly well considering the fact that the audience was no more than 15 in number. Suddenly, one of our Magentas (who consequently is part of theatre management) appears. She brings up something. She said that she talked to someone who was very high in seniority in theatre management, perhaps an owner. That person said that, if Rocky doesn't start picking up soon, this'll be our last year. I'M SOOOOO SCARED!!!!! I mean, I can't give this up now, I've put so much into this. Our cast president announced a large advertising blitz- focusing on colleges, high schools, cafe's, etc.- but I feel like this is out of our hands. In addition to hiking up the prices AGAIN, the theatre is now showing first-run movies, so it's they have nothing to lose by cancelling us. I'm so afraid.

During the song "Anyhow, Anyhow" in ST, are they referring to sex? I was lost! I mean, it doesn't really fit in with the movie, but it doesn't fit in with anything else, either...

I was riding in the car today with my Dad and he was playing these sad Elvis songs (he's obsessed with the man) and I just got so sad because I wished him and my mom hadn't gotten divorced Now they are both seeing people. I am really sad but I can't tell anyone cuz my Mom will get all mushy and my Dad will be like, "I know, sweetheart, I'm sorry" and almost cry. I HATE when he does that, so I don't know who to tell. None of my friends's parents are divorced.

I recently got in a fight with my best friend, because she will spend more time with her boyfriend than me. We have gotten into this same arguement over and over, and she has continually promised to change, etc, but never does.(except for about a week after our fight, then she is back to her regular "self"). I'm not sure if it's worth it to make up with her. Should I talk this out with her, AGAIN?? If I should, what should I say to have her understand that she needs to change for the best??

I have two questions regarding the Rocky Horror Show (stage production). 1st: Are there Transylvanians in the play? I've read the script, and it appears as though they're not present, and that they're replaced with the role of the "phantoms". 2nd: Are there any plans in the works for a U.S. tour?

My friend wants to home-school this year. Normally I would have no problem with that, but she wants to teach herself! She will be taking Algebra I this year and I know that she couldn't teach it to herself because I have already taken it. She keeps ignoring my warnings and now will not talk to me. What do I do?

Why does Riff kill Frank?

Is Columbia a Transylvanian? And if she and Magenta are such good friends, why is Magenta so willing to "Medusa" her? And why does Riff kill her? It makes sense to me why he kills Frank, and even Rocky, but it seems like poor Columbia didn't deserve it. One last question: Where can I get a copy of Shock Treatment? Nobody, but nobody, seems to have it. Thanks!

I live in a small town, which is a very long distance from a theater that shows RHPS. What I would like to do is to see if I could get one started in the local theater here in town. How in the hell would I go about doing a thing like that? And how would I be able to not piss off any other hard-core Rocky fans?

I am a 28 year old male who has just recently (January) returned to watching Rocky. I enjoy this very much and just recently have become more and more involved with the cast (this week is the first week for me on lights!). It provides me friends and someplace to go to on Saturday night. Well, I have two problems; 1) How in the hell do I get other people to a show, especially if they are scared at what might be going on there? 2) I am afraid that if i start up a relationship with a female on the cast, if something might not work out, I could not go to the show. Should I leave things as they are or take a chance?

How can I get my very religious and normal parents to let me and my sister Maria see RHPS?

Why does Dr. Scott get so mad at Frank when he says "or should I say Dr. VON Scott" ?

My friend is about to get married soon. She and her fiance have had numerous problems, and often she just wants him out of her hair because he is totally dependant on her and takes her for granted. I don't think their relationship is anywhere near ready to take the step of getting married. My dilemma; I really want to tell her it is a bad idea and I can see how it will all turn out, but I don't know if it is my place. I watched two other friends get married when I knew it was a bad idea, and they have a pretty miserable relationship. What do you think? Should I tell her my opinions? Or keep my mouth shut and hope for the best?

Do you think they'll ever make "Revenge Of The Old Queen" into a movie? It seems like it be a better sequel than SHOCK TREATMENT (my apologies, Nurse A). I mean, Shocky was more of an equal than a sequel to Rocky... Also, is there a video chain that sells SHOCK TREATMENT (ex.Suncoast, Blockbuster) or one that rents it?

I went to ROCKY last night, and, of course, it was fun. But, I am 13 and everyone there was like between 17-28 and I felt so out of place. I didn't see one other person that looked near my age. What should I do? Bring more people? I had one friend with and I'm sure I could get together 3 more, but ROCKY plays about an hour away from me so, everytime I go, I have to have my Dad take us and we have to stay in a hotel and stuff so it's a big bother and I am not sure if my Dad would let me take more than one person.

How come men never phone when they say they will?

I am really nervous about starting high school. Is there anything I can do to overcome this??

The first time I saw RHPS I was 11 years old; 6 years later and I still love it. I have only had the chance to see it 3 times in the theater and, because of the time between each viewing was so long, I said that I was a virgin each time. I don't mind, in fact I love being up in front. I would join a cast, but I don't get too many chances to go. Do you think that it is OK to do this?

There is this totally sexy girl that I know (she is our cast's Janet) and I think that i am in love with her. I really don't know what to do about it. It's not that "she dont know that i exist" but more of like that she treats me like "a friend" What should I do?

I started to date a girl about a month ago. We really like each other, and she is the best thing that every happened to me. This year, she is going to a new school, and we won't be able to see each other that much. We recently had a discussion about this, and we argeed that if it gets to be hard on the both of us, we would seperate. But, the problem is, I don't want to lose her because I love her very much. What should I do?

I am the one who talked about having a fight with her best friend. Well, we have not been talking, (as were things at the time of my last letter) and I am afraid that she isn't ever going to be my friend again. She is going to go trick-or-treating with us on Halloween, and I am afraid of what to do. Should I invite her to my sleepover with everyone else? Should I just leave her out? What should I do? My pride is to much for me to talk to her.

How do you get a celebrity to write you back, especially if he's not that popular?

Do you think net realationships can actualy ever lead to anything? I mean you can care about someone you've met on the net more then anyone but is it just a waste of time and typing or is it possible that it could become more serious and very long term?

I am a ROCKY HORROR virgin who wants to go "all the way." My only problem is that I live in a "family city" (like Denton) and the closest city that shows ROCKY is 3 or 4 hours away. What do I do to get to lose my virginity? My other problem is that my parents don't accept the fact that I LOVE ROCKY HORROR. I feel the same way that Janet felt before Frank seduced her.

My Step-Grandfather died and I am really upset. I was closer to him than to any of my other Grandfathers. I feel especially bad for my Grandmother because now she doesn't have him around. They just go together. You can't have one without the other. I am really upset and still can't totally believe it. What should I do?

I really fancy my best friend's exboyfriend. However, even though I was told that he's interested in me (and when we're together, he seems interested), I asked him if he liked me and he said that he thought I was pretty but he didn't fancy me. And recently my best friend who still fancies him told him that she still really liked him. The thing is he still really likes her!! What should I do? I mean I've tried to get them back together (in my sick twisted way this makes me feel better) or shoudd I just leave them alone?? And what shoudd I do about her ex??

Why does Janet have sex with Rocky? Also, what do you think (personal opinion) would have happened if the Floor Show had not been interupted? You know, if it had ended peacefully?

I know this is stupid, but do you like 70's music? What about Twinkies? Just wondering...

The people at my school make fun of me because I have emotional problems but they don't realise that they're making it worse. How should I deal with it?

There are a couple of guys I am intersted in that are in my classes in college. Both are sweet, funny, and smart, but we are all in the same theater class. What should I do?

There is this guy that I really like. The only problem is that he is fickle. One minute I am the only thing he can think about, and the next it is like I am not even there. Another thing is that we used to date and we were each other's first. We still care for each other. I really want to ask him out, but am afraid of rejection. What should I do?

What's new in Denton, Nurse A? What are you doing for Halloween? One more question, what is your favorite song from SHOCK TREAMENT? I like 'Little Black Dress", "Lullaby" and "Shock Treatment", but that's just me...

Why are Cosmo and Nation so rude to Ansalong in the movie? Nation was a little more than friendly in ROCKY, but this theory only works if you think Cosmo and Nation are Riff Raff and Magenta (which I do).

Some of my friends and I are going to put on an amateur showing of RHPS, and I would be playing Brad. I really want to play Brad, but they want me to get in full Rocky gear for the floorshow (fishnets, lingerie, heels, ect...) I'm really uncomfortable with this and I don't want to do it at all, but I really want to be Brad. What should I do?

I`ve been best friends with with this wonderful girl for three years now, but I`m madly in love with her! I`ve been this way nearly the whole time I`ve known her, but I know if she says no, I`d never be able to look her in the face again and I`d be out of a best friend! We do every thing together, and every second I`m with her, I love her more and more! But I just can`t ask her! So please, HELP ME! What do I do??

There is a guy that I have liked for a while now. I know that he likes me because he tells my friends but he will not say anything to me about it. Should I ask him myself what the deal is?

I'm a ROCKY virgin, but I do not want to participate in any of the "virgin ceremonies". I do not refer only to the stage act, but also to the V sign. I want to go to ROCKY, but I do not want to do any of the "virgin" stuff. I can't claim that I'm not a virgin as people already know me there (from my high school). I heard I can avoid the stage act, but that no one can avoid the V sign. What can I do to avoid this? Since for me, this is the only thing that will spoil everything in ROCKY.

I live in Australia and I have written to the OSTFC twice asking to become a member. I still haven't heard back from them after first writing in June. What should I do?

When my boyfriend (of 2 months in Nov.) "Fireclaw" was kissing me today, I felt aroused. I need to know if this is normal or not? I love him a lot and I don't want to lose him! My ex-boyfriend "Damien" in high school kissed me the same way and 6 months later I dumped him. ("Damien" not "Fireclaw") I have never felt this way about being kissed and am very confused.

It's been three months since I've broken up with my boyfriend and I'm not over him. He's starting to date again and he's one of my best friends so I can't exactly distance myself and it hurts for me to even think of him with someone else. A bunch of my friends say I should tell him I'm not over him but I don't want to burden him with the way I truly feel. I want to see him happy and I'm afraid that if I tell him I may jepordize his new relationship (even though it isn't all that serious) and make myself look like an idiot. What should I do??

I've been seeing this guy for a time now, but he's way too attached. I'm starting to feel like I'm being suffocated. I really do like this person and I'm afraid to let him go, but I can't stand his overaffection. Could you please give me some sort of suggestion on what I could do to let him know?

A guy who lives half an hour away doesn't want a serious relationship, but might in the near future (say within a few months). There's another guy who is willing to have a relationship now, but he lives very far away, so it only goes as far as the phone. You have stronger feelings towards the one who lives far away. What do you do if and when the other one decides to come back?

I've always been fairly open minded (or would like to think so). I dont think I'm gay or bisexual, but I've always prefered the company of those who are, as opposed to people who are "straight". Maybe its just the open mindedness or the difference from what I'm, basicaly, surrounded with, that interests me. Anyway, I'm not attracted to women, but men dressed in lingerie and make-up is a definate turn-on. I can also see myself and bisexual and gay men and women being very close friends. Does this sound strange or disparaging in any way?

In ROCKY HORROR, Janet was whipped, but in SHOCK TREATMENT, Brad was the one who was whipped. What happened there? I'm not saying that Brad should have continued to be an asshole in SHOCK TREATMENT, but something had to have happened to make them switch. Was Janet liberated the night she spent with Rocky? Was Brad put in his place after spending the night with Frank?

First off, I think I'm in love with my best friend. Second, he lives really far away. Well not way far away, but like 45 miles. I'm only 14, and I can never get a ride to his house. Which is a major problem because we were planning to double costume for Halloween this year with me as Magenta and him as Riff. What can I do!?

I really love the character Magenta in RHPS and was wondering what Pat Quinn was doing now. is she still acting? in theater? making a movie? TV?

I want to start a cast in my own town but a) I don't think any cinemas would like us and b) I don't know how to tell people that I want to do this!

I have had this giagantic crush on this guy for about a year now. I mean I've always liked him, but now it's a full blown crush. I told him my feelings recently and he wasn't interested. Usually, at this point in a crush, I lose intrest and look for some one new but I just can't get over him. I have tried everything short of hammering my head against the wall and I still can't get him out of my mind. What should I do?

I am 15 and female. About a year ago I met this really great girl. We hit it off right away and became very best friends. We know everything about each other. She is my only close friend. About four months ago I spent the night at her house. As the night wore on, I began to feel attracted to her sexually. I had never felt like this about a girl before. I knew that we were both straight, but I couln't help it. That night, I told her how I felt. She informed me that she had had similar feelings, too, even prior to that night. So, over the months we sorta became lovers. About a month ago I stayed at her house for the night again. We both sort of just assumed that we'd have sex. She started to make advances and I became so nervous and scared, wondering if I would be damned if I did, so I told her that we might regret it later, even though I'd really wanted to. We haven't talked about it since, and she is becoming extremely distant. We used to talk every day for hours, but now we rarely speak. I love her with all my heart and she is hurtng me very much. I know that she really cares about me, too. How can I save our friendship?

Is there a Richard O'Brien Fan Club?

I was wondering what it would take to get a RHPS cast started in the Albany N.Y. area?

There isn't a theater near me that shows ROCKY, and I spoke to the manager of a local theater about showing it. He got angry and said that every time it's shown, the screen breaks. There are other theaters in town, but the theater I spoke to is in a very good place (good part of town, right across from college, etc.) I could go to other theaters in town, but this one is perfect! What do you think I should do?

I am sixteen and have never been on a date. I finally asked a girl out and we are going out Saturday. I am really nervous, and feel I may be obsessing. I talk to her every day and all I can talk about to my friends is her. Is this normal?

I am a 20-year-old female RHPS fan. I have seen it once in a theatre, and would love to do so again. But I have a few disadvantages. I figure that the best thing to do is wait until I go away to an out-of-town college campus apartment next year and see if anyone is showing it nearby (though there doesn't seem to be a cast or such up there either). I'd also try to organize my own cast, but I have no local friends. How can I find people who share my interest in this? I also fear that my family would be ashamed of me if I tried to organize a cast. So I'm a bit stuck and lonely. Do you think there's anything that can be done right now that could help me acheive this particular dream?

How old were you when you first saw ROCKY? Why are you the only "sane" person I've heard of who likes it?

Why exactly did Richard O'Brien change his last name from Smith?

What part did Richard O'Brien play in "Jesus Christ Superstar"?

What is happening, in as much detail as possable, between Cosmo and Nation during their verse of "Lullebye"? I have never seen Shock Treatment and am very curious.

I think this guy likes me because he calls me a lot, talks for a while, seems to enjoy talking, signs his letters "love", and acts friendly with me. But I am not sure. What are some other ways I can find out if he likes me besides asking?

My girlfriend and I have been going out for about 8 months now. For the first few months, she called me every day she wrote me every day at school. She stopped that a month or two ago. I also have a twin brother that she had (and might sill have) a huge crush on him. She talks (flirts) with him every day behind my back. I don't think she loves me anymore. Please tell me what to do!!!

I've been with my boyfriend for 1 year and 2 months. I'm bisexual and he knows that, but will not let me do anything with a female. I have recently been developing feelings for my ex-girlfriend and I just don't know what to do. She totally broke my heart about 2 years ago and know I can't stop thinking about her. I know she's hurt others (male and female alike) but I have a feeling she recently broke off her long-time relationship with a male to persue a relationship with me. I love my boyfriend more than anything, but I can't help the feelings I have towards her and other females. What the hell do I do?!?!

I'm a girl with a huge crush on a goth guy who is 3 grades older than me. But two of my friends who are also friends with him say that we are perfect for each other. They are really serious too, but I don't know how to get his attention. I wouldn't want to force him into noticing me by having our friends introduce us. Do you think I should drop my "if it's meant to be it will" attitude and get a friend to introduce us? And what am I supposed to say to him anyways? And how can I get his attention in the first palce?

I was wondering if you could help me out. What is it exactly that guys want?

I love the Internet, and until a week ago, I was on it every free moment I had. But this week, I faced a lot of reality - just doing things with my friends, doing things outside of my house. I realized I'd been spending much too much time at my computer, and missed reality. I decided the only thing I could do was to give it up for a while. I think when I made that decision, however, I hurt a lot of people. I never meant to hurt anyone's feelings by leaving. I just had to get my real life back. How can I convince them it's not their fault? That this was something I needed to do for myself?

I am SERIOUSLY depressed about Riff and Magenta in REVENGE OF THE OLD QUEEN. My friends who usualy cheer me up are either just as depressed or don't know how to help, but you can.

I've never quite understood the lyrics of "I'm Going Home". What do you think they mean?

I am 15 years old. I used to be very conservative, but I've changed. A while ago, I was taken by a friend of mine to see ROCKY in a theater, and instantly fell in love. My parents weren't very happy with my wanting to go see it again and again. They think there is something unhealthy about it. Is there something wrong with me for wanting to sing the songs all day, perform the show with my drama troupe, throw ROCKY-Bashes with all my crazed-friends?

I'm another of those people in Albany, NY who wants to get a cast going. We have a bunch of people who are interested in playing different parts, but no theater. There aren't enough people here who want ROCKY in the theater to get a decent petition going, and all the Theater Managers hate me for constantly asking them about it. What should I do?

I am male and hetero. There is this girl in my school named Jen who on Valentine's Day gave me a box of those candy hearts, a Winnie the Pooh card, and a carnation. I also got a lolipop card from an anonymus person who said that she liked me. I think it was her who sent it. I also danced with her at a dance. She also gave me a rose durring school spirit week. We don't go out. Ever since she gave me that stuff I have fallen in love with her. I wan't to tell he that I like her but am too afraid. What should I do? Does she like me?

I'm a guy and I've developed a strong attraction to another guy in a class of mine. I didn't even know I could be attracted to guys before now, but that's not the problem. I'm almost positive he's straight. I would just tell myself to forget about it and almost did, until yesterday. I don't really believe in signs, but yesterday was way too wierd. See, all this just makes me think about him more. I feel like somebody's trying to tell me something. I can't get past how much of a coincidence it all is. I'm NOT open about this so I would NEVER tell him. I feel so stupid and upset and frustrated. What should I do?

How do I put a parody on this website?

Why do you think people like RHPS?

I'm really depressed. It seems that all my relationships last only a few weeks because the guy wants to have sex with me (but I'm not of that magical legal age yet). The last guy I went out with wanted to have sex with me, but he said that he didn't want to hurt me, and that I was too young to be in such a serious relationship. What's wrong with me?

In RHPS, Frank calls Dr. Scott "Dr. Von Scott". Is he refering to him being a Nazi oppressor that he knew durring the Holocaust? Was there an actual Dr. Everett Von Scott? Also, the credits say the Eddie was a former delivery boy. Are they refering to him being a drug dealer?

I drink like 5 cans of coke a day and TONS of sweet tea. I tried to stop drinking caffeine for all of 5 hours and I got this REALLY AWFUL MIGRAINE. I'm afraid that drinking all this caffeine is having a really negative affect on me, but I don't feel like have a migraine every freakin day. Any suggestions? Anything like that patch for caffeine addicts?

I have been very good friends with a great guy I met online for a long time. We have chatted on the net and talked on the phone for hours on end about anything we can think of. Now he is coming to visit me soon and I am very excited and happy to meet him. Our problem is, though we both like each other very, very much, we live in different states. I wish we could be together and see where this relationship takes us, but that probably isn't going to happen. Do you have any ideas on how to help let my heart down gently?

Do you have a favorite character in RHPS?

I'm a 15 year old girl, and I'm totally in love with this guy. He said he liked me and asked me out, but I never gave him a real answer and I think he resents me for it. But I recently found out that he's gay. At least, that's what everyone has been telling me. I wasn't sure if it was true, but then I heard him tell my friend about this guy that he's in love with. He acts so weird toward me. Sometimes he'll be nice and talk to me, but other times he'll completely ignore me or be really cold to me. And sometimes I notice him staring at me during class. I'm sick of it. I'm not very good friends with him, and there's no way I can talk to him about this. I've tried to get over him, but nothing works. I still love him. How can I forget about him?

What was Frank's mission, which was a failure, that Riff-Raff commented on as he burst into the floor show?

How would I be able to contact Richard O'Brien? Is there an address you know or something?

My Father says me liking ROCKY HORROR is just a phase. But it's not just a phase! The first time I saw RHPS, my Mom says I was only around 2 years old and I really liked it. So I have been a fan for most of my life. That's hell of a long phase!!! How can I convence my dad its not a phase?!?!?

I would like to know a few things- Have you seen the "Special Edition" RHPS and can you post the words to "Once in a While?" Is that actually Brad singing, and if not, who? It didn't sound like it, but I wanted to ask to make sure. Also, exactly what is this "Trixie" song? And do you have any idea why "Superheroes" was deleted from the American version? I think it's really important to the plot. One last thing- Is there a particular website where I can order Shock Treatment?

How do I write 20th Century Fox and get them to help convince Ritz to make a RHPS 2? I'd be willing to help get the project started in anyway. Which Brad and Janet would you like to see in a "sequel"? Susan and Barry or Cliff and Jessica. Last but not least..where in the world can I find a string of pearls just like Frank's?

In your opinion, is RHPS (regardless of what goes on in ST) a happy or sad movie? Doesn't Superheroes make the meaning of the end different?

Why does Ansalong, in SHOCK TREATMENT, tell Janet to sign the stupid contract tomorrow?

Me and my Ex broke up about a year ago. The problem is that I still like him, even though I tell everyone else that I don't. I think that he likes me, but I'm not sure. What should I do?

My friend Jenny was married to my room mate and, the whole time she was living there, I heard them fight. Now, she has moved out and he still talks bad about her. What should I do?

My best friend and I have only known each other for a year, but we are really close. Lately, he has been ignoring me and ditching me and not really talking to me or calling me at all. He says I act like we are going out too much, but he was the first one to hold my hand, put his arm around me, etc. etc. He is really hurting me if he does not talk to me. I do not know how to make him be nice again. What should I do?

I have heard many things about REVENGE OF THE OLD QUEEN. All I know is that it is the "real sequel" (sorry ST) to RHPS, written by Richard O'Brien. Was this actually made into a movie, or is it something that O'Brien never got off the ground? I heard there is a script. Where can I get my hands on it? If it actually became a movie, where can I get it? Does Frank come back to life like he was meant to in S.T?

When Brad and Janet show up on the castle doorstep and they're talking to Riff, they look off to the side and lightning flashes on the motorcycles. When this happens, Riff acts a little scared at the fact that Brad and Janet just saw the motorcycles because he quickly tells them to come inside. Why? This seems a little strange to me. Is Riff afraid that Brad and Janet will find something out?

From about kindergarten through sixth or seventh grade, I was best friends with someone, but then we kind of drifted apart, and I hadn't seen him in five years. I recently got a job, and discovered he's one of my coworkers. I got to see him for a brief moment and say hello and goodbye, but that's about it. I really want to become a good friend of his again, but I'm worried that he may have changed a lot. I can get his phone number quite easily, but I'm not sure if he'll be interested in talking to me again. What do you think?

How do you think ROCKY HORROR has changed over time?

I've never understood the line, "We'll play along for now and pull out the aces when the time is right." Is it Brad just trying to be cool? Does he actually have a plan? Or is it just a subtle reference to "You're Looking at an Ace" from ST?

Why don't Brad and Janet recognize Nation and Cosmo and Ansalong as Riff, Magenta, and Columbia? RHPS was supposed to be "a night out they were going to remember for a very long time." I suppose it's partly that Jessica and Cliff are not Barry and Susan, the REAL Brad and Janet (just my opinion).

In Shock Treatment, why does Bert say "They should be sent to the Danube at dawn"?

I have a serious problem. For the past 7 years, my sister has sexually and phisicaly abused me, enough to make me bleed. But now she's going to move to college, and I was wondering what should I do? Should I tell someone about this? I never could before because if she found out that I told someone she'd hit me, hard. I'm really confused.

There isn't a cast in my town that performs Rocky, I would be very eager to start up one, and to perform. There is a bit of a problem with me actually playing a part though. I'm overweight. This doesn't bother me in the least, I don't mind getting in the floorshow costume or any of that, but even though Rocky fans are generally more open-minded than most people I doubt anyone would enjoy seeing me in that kind of costume. I'm not one of those skiny people who constantly thinks that they're fat no matter how much weight they lose. I could play Eddie (I've played a dead man before--I'm female) I would just like to know your opinion on it.

I would really like to join a cast, but I'm really shy. I don't think I'd mind being onstage in my underwear as much as getting up the gumption to ask the local cast if I can audition. The location is great and I think it would work out really nicely, but it seems like this particular cast is not in desperate need of any new cast members - they switch off Janets, Columbias, and Magentas for every few scenes. I am a senior in high school and I don't have the time, energy, or money to even think about starting my own cast. What should I do?

I have these feelings for this ceratin individual who is not only older than me, but seemingly emotionally unattainable. I don't know why I'm even attracted to this person. It seems very out of character for me. I don't know, but I can't take it! I have no idea what to do...

I heard that Peter Hinwood didn't REALLY sing in RHPS. I heard that David Bowie did all the vocal tracks for the Rocky character. My friends say I'm an idiot and I should shut the hell up. Who's right?

Lately, I attended my first showing of ROCKY HORROR, and the virgin ceremony was not all that bad- just some lipstick "v's" and an oath. However, there was no fooling the usherette into thinking I wasn't a RHPS virgin because I am shy and I get embarassed and blush easily, giving myself away. The problem is, I didn't mind going through the virgin ceremony once, but I don't want to have to do it again, especially somewhere where it's more extreme. I look pretty innocent and I'm pretty sure I could be mistaken for an RHPS virgin. What should I do?

R and I have been together for more than 2 years, and I love him. We plan on getting married after college. B and I used to date about 5 years ago. I fell for him HARD and he broke my heart. B and I lost track of each other for awhile because I moved and then went away to college, but recently we found each other again. Over my Xmas break, I went to visit family in the town where I used to live, and B and I got to spend some time together. Actually, we spent an entire night together. Most of it was just talking, but one thing led to another and we ended up kissing on the couch. R has no idea what happened, and I don't plan on telling him. It would break his heart. But I'll see B again over the summer when I visit my family again, and I'm afraid it will happen all over again. I want it to happen. But I still love R very much. I'm very confused.

I recently started having sex for the first time and had it with someone I care for very much. We have been the best of friends for a year, and got serious with each other about 2 months ago and it was wonderful. To both our horror, our plans were to be changed. He has recently had to leave to live in another state for a few years. We are keeping our relationship long distance with e-mail and ICQ and phone when we can. We talk every night for hours like we used to. I have a problem now. When I had sex with him, I really didn't think it was that great. Now I want to see what it's like with other people, to see if it's really as great as they say it is. I don't want any other relationships, just one night stands. What do I do? I don't want to hurt my boyfriend, but my curiosity is getting the better of me.

Ever since I saw ROCKY HORROR, I thought Richard O'Brien is the sexiest man alive. My friends think it's weird, but most of them accept it. My girlfriend shares my sentiments, so there's no problem there. My parents, well, they don't really know how I feel, and they're not the problem either. My main problem is that I think about him as almost my everything. My dad is almost never around, because he's always at work. The last time we really talked was when he told me I was becoming too one-dimensional because of ROCKY HORROR (I can tell you, I'm not). My mom acts mad at me a lot, for no reason. She gives me the impression, through words and actions, that I messed up our family because I am bisexual, very bohemian, and love ROCKY so much. She has also called me very nasty names. So part of my O'Brien obsession, I think, is for love. I mean, watch his movies, and look at that recent German movie award he won... I fantasize about parents like that, who would accept me for who I am. He seems so wonderful compared to my parents... and, while my parents aren't always there, I always have all my Richard pics to talk to. I know this is not healthy. How can I make this better, and keep it down to a simple infatuation?

I have been seeing a women for over a year now. Recently, I started getting with someone else though. The sex with other person is so amazing, but I'm still emotionall attached to my girlfriend. How do I handle this?

Recently, a group of friends whom I never really liked much anyway ditched me. I guess they decided I wasn't cool enough because they all ditched me at once over the summer and are now saying horrible things about me. It doesn't bother me, but this does: One of the group remained friends with me, even though he got a lot of slack from his old friends. But he seemed genuinely concerned about me, and we used to talk a lot about how mean the other kids were, and he said he'd try to leave the group. He would say horrible things about them behind their backs, and I always wondered why he never did anything about it. Anyway, he never left the group after all, and seemed to be hanging out with them more, sort of flaunting it in front of me, especially when I was eating lunch by myself and he'd sit down across from me with them and make faces at me. I don't mind him ditching me, because he was awfully mean to me of late and good riddance, but I've told him a lot of secrets and I'm afraid he might use them against me! What should I do? Plus, I can't tell the other kids all the horrible things he said about them because they all hate me and would never believe me.

I want to get ROCKY started in my city, Nashville. There is an abandoned theater here. How do I go about getting info about it and making it into a theater again?

What is Riff-Raff singing about when we first see him looking out of the window? Why is he so melencholy and pensive here but nowhere else in the film? Also, why exactly were the Transylvanians on Earth? Also, Riff tells Frank he is his "new commander", but he and Magenta, instead of taking over whatever mission Frank had been sent for, return to Transsexual instead, because, as Riff says, they're "noble mission is almost complete"? What was THEIR mission, and why does it appear to be different from Frank's?? Was it to kill Frank, for whatever reason? It certainly seems so...If so, why did they wait so long? And who sent them?

In SHOCK TREATMENT, why does Bert pretend to be blind? Why does he sleep sitting up? And why doesn't he let Cosmo and Nation in on Farley's plan?

I've noticed tha ta lot of nice girls are with these real jerk guys, and it makes me mad when I see the guys make fun of their girlfriends or, even worse, hit them. I am a pretty sensative guy, and I'm always nice to everybody (even people who are jerks to me). I don't understand why nice guys like me finish last. So far, I have never had a girlfriend or even a date. Girls just seem to think of me as more of a friend, and then THEY PAY for their boyfriend's dinner. I thought about becoming a jerk like these guys, but there's no way I could pull off that act-- I can't even think about that. What should I do?

Why does SHOCK TREATMENT make hardly any sense? And I know this seems strange, but I am totally in love with Ricky! Just who is he anyway? A nurse? An intern? Please give me some info on him.

Every time I get the chance, I'm on the Net, even when I'm not supposed to be. My parents swear I'm addicted, but I don't think so! I just really enjoy looking up ROCKY stuff, which they also find extremely uncouth, BTW. What should I do?

How can I put my RHPS website on Cosmo's Random Link thingy?

My boyfriend Leo is a natural flirt. Everyday my friends tell me how he's really friendly to other girls. (They flirt back also) I don't want him to be like that at all. I want him to be like that to me only. Whenever I try to confrount him with being "pverly nice" he says "I don't flirt, or we're joking around as friends". He says that he loves me. What should I do?!

Firstly, both my girlfriend and I are 15. Secondly, I'm moving someplace in about a month, where I can only see her about once or twice a year. I am really depressed bout this. What should we do about this problem?

I was just wondering what Bert Schnick means when he says, "The subject is committed...As are we all." Also, which Transylvanian is Imogen Clair (the wardrobe mistress in ST)?

I met a guy in the Zen Room and we are emailing each other. He is 8 years older than me and I want to meet him. Should I tell him I'd like to meet him? I also want a picture of him. Should I go ahead and ask for his address?

I'm hoping to put on a performance of SHOCK TREATMENT at my University later this year, but I have no idea who holds the copyrights to it. Can you help?

I want to know, seeing that Brad and Janet are such good friends of Dr. Scott, how come they don't know where he lives? I mean, if they were as good a pack of mates as it is made out to be that they are, why do they get lost on their way to his house? And also, why are there Trannies coming from the dead end? Can they fly or something?

My girlfriend seems to have a fetish for handcuffs. The only problem is she's always forgetting where she puts the keys and I'm sick of getting stuck to the bed! Any advice?

I really like this guy friend of mine (I'm female), but we've been friends a long time and I don't want to ruin it. We're both big ROCKY fans and we met under ROCKY-related circumstances. During a class he started singing "The Time Warp", and I finished the verse for him. The thing is, we had a mutual friend (female) and she told me that she liked him, and I kind of pushed her into asking him out knowing he would probably say no. He did. They're not friends anymore. In short, I don't want to lose my best friend, but I want him to know that I feel more deeply than he thinks for him.

I believe that it was moraly wrong for Riff to kill Frank. And Dr Scott's comment that it was "okay by him" is a great big oxymoron. I mean, what makes it right for Riff to kill Frank but wrong for Frank to kill Eddie? And also, why did he shoot Columbia too? That was totally unfair!

I'm 15. I have a severe infatuation with Tim Curry. I think he's sexier now than ever. I don't think it's strange, I just think I was born about 38 years later than I should of been. But my parents and friends don't understand. Do you think that being attracted to older men will cause me problems later in life?

I rented what I thought was the RHPS 25th aniversary edition from my local video store, only to discover that it was just a regular copy of RHPS in the Special Edition box. Should I bring it to the attention of the video store that they were wrong in passing off the regular edition as the Special Addition (because some people, like me, wanted to see the cut scenes), or should I just let it be?

I'm soooo in love with this guy, but he has this tendency to break up with girls if they don't have sex with him in the first two weeks they are going out with him. Normally I would say no, but now I don't know... I really like him. Please help me.

Why does Frank seduce Janet first? I mean, if he is likes guys so much, then doesn't it make perfect logic for him to seduce Brad first? He did make Rocky for his personal pleasure anyways! And why does she seduce them at all? I have never really figured that out!?

Every time I love a guy he gets a girlfriend. I don't understand it. I don't look that bad. So why do they always have to enter a monogomous relationship right before I can hook up with them?

I'm going out with a guy (I'm a guy myself), who I love to death. I believe he loves me just the same, but there is a twist. He's been in a relationship with someone out of state who he has NEVER met and there are rumors that he is not real for 2 years. This guy is a jerk, from what my boy tells me, and he may not even be real. I want to be number one with him. He knows I'm uncomfortable with it. What else do I do?
