honestly, we could use some more info. have you tried just hitting the starter w/o giving her a jump? when it runs, does it idle smooth?

this hapened to me too. I used it about a whole year like this but it got worse. Try starting it many times (truning the key on "Start" many times). if it works, then its the relay for the starter. Replace it and clean the conectors as they be rusty. If you wana try to startr it, there's a single cable to the sarter (not the huge one). it conects to a conector really close in the wiring. disconect it, the shove a good, thick cable on the conector, making sure to make good conection inside. you might need a screwdrive to shove the cable in there. then put the car on "on" position, and put the cable you conected on the + side of the battery. the starter should start, along with the car. You can aslo do it while its off. Try it many times. If it starts every time, then its the relay (About 15$) or if it doesn't the prolly the starter (160$ cheapest). If you're doubtful of your cable conection, then go to the starter following this cable, then you'll see that it conects to a screw with a nut. Remove the nut, the wind the cable there and screw the nut. Then try it again. If it doesn't do anything.... sorry, starter is dead, go get sum $$$.
