Myself and my fiance are 26 and I have a 2 1/2 year old from a previous relationship. We have been together for 1 1/2 years and engaged for 1. Last week my fiance had a couple of friends that were looking for an apartment to live in. They are supposed to be moving into the ones where we live. Without asking me, Josh invited them to stay with us until their apartment is ready. It has been almost a week now since they came to stay. It made me really angry that he did not ask me if I cared if they stayed, he just invited them and told me they were staying. I'm upset because I am the one paying all the bills right now because he just finished college and has not found a job yet. Our apartment is really small and was cramped with just our stuff in it. Now our dining room is stuffed with their things and they have taken over our living room too. We only have a couch in our living room because it it tiny. At night after I get home from work I like to make dinner then lay around and watch TV for a while before I go to bed. Since they have been there I don't get to sit on the couch or watch TV. I have been coming home and going to my room to read. Josh gets upset with me because I don't want to sit out there with our "company". I wouldn't mind hanging out with everyone, but when I do sit in my living room I either have to sit on the floor or pull a chair from my dining room to sit on. I feel like my son is getting shorted by them being there too. He is used to having free roam of the house and playing where ever he wants to in the apartment. Now he is confined to his room and can not play anywhere else and when he tries to he gets into trouble for getting into their stuff. Then over the weekend we had a birthday party to go to for my grandmother. I made it clear to Josh the night before that I did not want them in the house while we were gone. When we got ready to leave the next day Josh handed them his keys so they could come and go as they please. It's like my thoughts and opinions don't count anymore. Then when I try to explain to him how I'm feeling he gets angry with me and thinks I'm being rude to them. I like my personal space and I hate it when I don't have it. I don't know how much more of this I can take. Josh thinks I'm too controlling on things like this, but I'm tired of being stepped on and used. How can I make him see my point of view before I just get angry with the situation and just kick all 3 of them out so it's just me and my son again? (link)

If you guys are getting married, it's important that you have open communication. No marriage can survive without it. Which includes him ASKING if these people can stay there for awhile while getting situated.
You need to sit down with him, and talk with him about the situation calmly and clearly, ask him how much longer they are staying and make sure that the "guests" know that they should be out by such and such date. Point out everything that you just pointed out here that is causing this "help" to be more of an inconveince.
It's one thing to help friends but if your not careful they will soon take advantage of that, and think they have an unlimited stay at your place.
Your right, your child should be able to roam around his own house.. reguardless of their stuff.. and you should be able to come home after a long days work and relax. There is NO way my husband would ever invite someone here to stay without talking to me first.. if he doesn't see your point? Invite a friend in to stay a few days.. see how he likes not being asked and inconveinced even furthermore. ^^
Hope you get peace and quiet soon.

Hello. I recently asked a question about getting a tattoo on my shoulder. Only one person answered. Anyway, this is a different question now. I'm supposed to get one soon. I finally found a design I really like with a butterfly in it, so I think that's the one I'm picking. Please don't give me a lecture on why I shouldn't get a tattoo. I am 16/f and I already have a tattoo on my lower back. I don't need to know how much they hurt or anything like that. I don't think they hurt at all. I love the feeling. I was just hoping someone who actually has a tattoo on their shoulder could answer this. No one else please, because most likely no one else would know. I wanted to know if I'm going to have to take my shirt off for this tattoo to be done, or what I'll have to do? If I don't have to take my shirt off, then what type of shirt do you suggest I wear when I go to get this done? If anyone has a tattoo on their shoulder already, please let me know if you had to take your shirt off, or what type of shirt you wore. Thank you very much. I'd really appreciate it. I hope a few people answer this. Please answer asap. :) (link)

Just wear a tank top that you can slip your arm out of.. I wore a tank and just slipped my arm out of my brastrap and tanktop because of where I wanted it placed.. you shouldn't have to take your top completely off. ;)

Hi, I've been on my period for 2 years now. Im 14, and i'll be 15 in august. When I get my period, I get it REALLY bad, especially my cramps. They are always so bad that I cant walk, I cry, and I cant do any normal things, I just have to lay down throughout the day in pain until my period is over. When I had school, I couldn't even make it to school,and I would always have to go home during the day. My cramps usually last throughout the whole entire period but their not as bad at the end. I also have every single symptom a girl gets when shes on period, such as bloating,PMS,boob pains, and all this other stuff. Also when Im on my period my whole body is messed up, like Im sick. I also get lightheaded and sick to my stomach.
I tried advil for my cramps and it only makes them worse. Extra strength tylonal works for me but not enough as it should.
Is all of this normal? All my friends dont have this problem. My mom does so it could be genetics.
Should I go to the doctor?
thanks (link)
|
Hrm. It could be genetics.. you could try talking to your mother about getting on birth control.
Not saying you have any real "reason" for it now, but at the same time.. alot of times birth control can help calm those cramps.. and lessen how hard your period hits you.
I've been there, know how it is.. >.< You can also try hot baths/showers those few days your in such pain the heat can help lessen them.. and at least give you a bit of relief. Good luck.

Are weed and pot the same thing? (link)
| |
Umm yes..
|
It's probably likely that none of you have a medical degree and thus cannot really answer my question and be 100% correct. Unless ofcourse you have this problem too.
I don't know if it's normal or not to have random stabbing pains. I get them in my side and in my back. I've asked my friends if they have random occurences like that, they said no.
It's not my appendix(the symptoms don't add up) and I don't have my gallbladder anymore. I'm just curious I suppose to see if any of you share these random spurts of pain and if you've had them checked out.
Note - I'm not going to a doctor(now at least) becuase I don't have insurance, or a job at the moment. (link)
|
It could be your kidneys? If so, it's most likely your drinking too many sugar laced drinks... soda, teas, etc.
I'd try drinking lots of water and cranberry juice to try to clean them out, if that's the problem, then you need to get to the doctor somehow.

hey I know this is a really stupid and weird question, but ok i'm making a new screen name, and it's gonna be mangotango59. how should it be: MaNgOtAnGo59, mAnGoTaNgO59, or mangotango59? also, should i add anyletters or anything in between the words like mangoXXtango59 or oOmangotangoOo59 or something? also, if you have anyother good screen name ideas, then that'd be good too! (link)

MangoTango59
oOoMangoTango59oOo

I personally think the whole tYpElYkE this is confusing and just looks "stupid" and I think it's a cute sn.

Okay, sorry this is going to sound really stupid and like im really rude and stuff, but i know im not skinny and im kinda fat..i weigh 128 pounds and im 5'5..but in PE we weighed ourselves and thats what it said (then i went to the doctor and it was the same weight there too..so i know its right) my friend in PE was like the same as me..but she likes to feel better about herself and shes telling everyone i weigh like 140..i guess thats not that bad..but still, i dont want everyone to think im even more fat then i already am. She told one of my friends (lets call her F) that and F WONT believe me at all. Then i told one of my other friends (lets call her X) what i really weigh and she told F. But F was like no she doesnt, she weighs 140. uugh its just really annoying that she won't believe me. I guess i don't really care that much..i don't even like people knowing how much i weigh. But yeah. What should i do to get her to believe me and everyone to just shut up about it? Should i just ignore it?
Thanks for any help.. (link)
|
The healthy weight for 5'5 is between 130-140.. which is not fat... so weighing 128 isn't fat either.. it doesn't matter what they think.. just ignore it.

A teacher randomly handed out 4 math books to four children in the class. The names of the students were inside the book.
a.)what is the probability that each child got his/her/ own book?
b.) what is the probability that no child got his or her book?
How do i solve this? and what are the answers? (link)

I cannot believe you asked a question from your homework.. *shakes her head* And shame for the ones that actually gave you the answers.

Can you get pregnant from giving head sence the cum goes in your mouth with sperms in it? (link)
|
First.. "sperms" that was just classic..
Umm you seriously need to take some "Body 101" courses.. and learn some information on the subject... cause if you knew anything about your body..
You'd realize that your mouth is no where near connected to your vagina, ovaries, or uterus where you carry the baby... unless your asking this.. cause you honestly believed you carried in your stomach...
You'd also know, that your stomach has "acid" in it to break up and dissolve food and anything living that touches it, dies.... so.. um no you can't get pregnant this way..

My boyfriend and I had sex a few weeks ago and I was due to get my period today. I still haven't gotten it. We didn't use a condom, but we didn't finish either. He was only in me for a few seconds, not even a minute. Is there any chance that I could be pregnant? I'm showing all my regular signs of PMS, but still no period. (link)
|
Hmm.. well first off, you should use condoms, then you wouldn't have to worry so much that you could be pregnant, although even condoms have a 3% fail rate. And that's higher if not used right... which in alot of cases they aren't...
There is some chance you could be pregnant, even though he didn't finish I can tell you he leaked pre-cum which is enough to get you pregnant.
Wait a few days, and get a test. There are many factors that can cause a late period and you might be stressing enough to be late... and you were suppose to start today, and today isn't over.. so just try to stay calm. ;)
As far as showing regular signs of PMS I've had 2 children, and showed regular signs both times. So unless your period starts, or you have no reason to be pregnant, those "signs" mean nothing.
And last, please inform yourself better about sex before you decide to sleep with your boy again.. it can save you from your worrying..

Where do all you advicenators get all your answers? (link)

I get it from just my own life experiences, situations I've been in, and basic knowledge that I've picked up.

Does anyone know the song that goes "this is the story of a girl who cried a river and drowned the whole world. She's looks so sad in photographs but i absolutely love her when she smiles"? what song is it and who sings it? (link)
|
It's called : Story of a Girl
And you can either find it by "Nine Days" OR...
"3 Doors Down"
As far as seeing the video, google it.. ;) I'm sure they'll find you a site, or if you happen to have Bearshare, Kazaa, Limewire, you could always search and try to find it there ;)

does anyone no a self tanner that goes on really smoothley without streaking...because im so pale! (link)

Here check this out ;)
http://teenadvice.about.com/cs/toppicks/tp/aatp070502d.htm
Keep in mind to wash your hands after use as they will turn orange, including your nails really well.
And don't apply as much to your knees and elbows because these areas will tan darker than your skin. ;)

my period is coming up real soon, and every single one of my friends have told me that tampons work wonders. (by the way i have only had my period once before and im 13) but my mom thinks im not ready, and i feel ready, i have tried one of my mom's tampons, there regular, and i got it in like half way, and i asked her for the beginners teen easy slide ones, and she claims that i am to young to start it, and 2 of my best friends already started putting tampons in by there 3rd period. can someone one give me advice on if i am to young? or jus keep practicing with my moms? ill rate (link)
|
I would def try to get a hold of some of the teen made tampons.. as far as being too young.. umm.. I've NEVER heard that..
With summer coming up, your going to want tampons, you can't swim with a pad.. as it's not only unsanitary, looking like you have a diaper between your legs is not sexy..
I'd try talking to your mother again, and point out with summer coming up you can't go in the pool with a pad on.. ;)

ok ... so my mom said that if i loose 10 pounds shed give me 100 dollers!! the problem is..i dont know how.. i cant exercise regularly cause i never have time im always doing soemthing and i cant really eat special things cause one weekend im with my dad and one day during the week i am with him...i dont kno what to do i need HELP! what could i do to loose weight??????????? thank you sooo so much! OxoxO
(link)
|
Ok, actually.. you don't need to cut anything.. *giggles*
You can of course lay off bread as it is a big "straight to the hips food" BUT..
Replace all your beverages with WATER.. drink at least 8 glasses a day.. and you'll be surprised you can lose weight just by following that simple trick.. and I can almost promise you'll lose at least the 10 lbs your mother is asking.. (and I do mean every beverage.. not flavored water.. as alot has added sugar.. just water)
Second.. your mother is obsessed with weight.. no mother should "bribe" their children to lose weight.. ehh.. but yes.. do it for the money!

Ok.. well my mom works for social services. and she got this job when i was in third grade (i'm currentlly in 8th) and ever since then shes been SO overprotective. She doesn't like for me to do things without her knowing every single detail. She's takin the lock off my bedroom door. so that she can walk in at any given moment just to see what i'm doing. And it's getting worse every day. Even when i was in 3rd grade i didn't have a 'bed time' but now she's making me go to bed at 9 oclock. it's getting really bad. i'm getting ready to be in high school and i still have a bedtime. i feel like such a child because i never get to do anything. And i've tried talking to her. And i've told her that i think she is to protective. Yet nothing ever changes. What should i do?

First, I had a bedtime till I graduated. 10 'o clock every night.. in the house by 9... friends gone also at 9.
I was allowed no lock on my door.. no boys in my room.. and couldn't even "go on a date" till I was 16.
Your mother just cares about you, and seeing what she does at her job.. makes her worry about you even more. She knows that even the saftest homes things can happen to children and is just looking out for you.
Your only 14.. show her your responsible.. ask for a cell phone, and agree to call her every hour or so to "check" in when your out at friends, or at someone's house..
Make sure to be home by curfew, and show no gruff telling her where you'll be what you'll be doing, and who will be there..
If you show her you can follow her rules, and can make plans, sticking to them not accidentally going "somewhere" else.. then eventually she'll give you more freedom..
Part of of being young is that your mother can control your life till your 18.. so make the best of it.. and know she's only doing it cause she loves you.

My mom won't let my peirce my belly, and i have wanted it for two years now. I have tryed to convince her that i want it done but she still says no! Any ideas? Please help asap!!!!! (link)
|
If your parents are adamant about you not getting it done.. then chances are there's nothing you can say.
Wait till your 18.. and do what you want when your on your own.. paying your own bills.. and doing what you want.. when you can afford it yourself.
Just a simple tip too.. it's called a "naval" piercing.
|
|
Okay well, when i woke up this morning, i went to brush my teeth and like the bottom part of the 4 front ones were all like whiteish and ugly and looked gross. Any ideas how this could have happend? How do you get rid of it in 20 minutes? HELP ASAP!! (link)
|
Umm.. if it was still there after brushing your teeth really well, than chances are it's calcium deposits..
You can try scratching your nail across them.. but most likely if it's in the tooth.. just cut back on the calcium today.. and it'll go away on it's own.

im 15 and someone told me that my boyfriend -hes 15- looks at porn..is that normal? and like he said that my bf jacks off to it, too...is this normal or bad or what? and should i be offended that i cant make him feel good enough or somethin? (link)
|
This is pretty normal for a boy his age. He's curious, and his hormones are on overdrive.
It has nothing to do with you, it's just he's curious, and at night his hormones are going a mile a minute, and he just needs something to focus that attention on..
