Beginner portfolio help

Quick beginner question…

I don’t fully understand the rows
I have col-xs-8
&
col-xs-4
but they are stacked on top of each other instead of side by side
How do I get rows to be side by side? No matter the situation.

I’m sorry for what probably seems like a stupid question…

I’ll be honest: you’re using codes that I don’t understand! But the rows and columns I kind’a get. I believe you have set up a column inside a column. All of you </div> tags are at the end. Take one of them and place it between lines 24 and 25.
It should read:

<p>FreeCodeCamp Novice.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-4 pull-right">

I think that should at least get them side by side from what I have tried.

Thanks, I think I’m very much a beginner in “thinking” in the right sense.
