i'm 12 and i started my 1st period june 15. i heard u were supposed to get it every 28 days and i'm about a week late if that's the case! could i be pregnant, i mean i havn't had sex, but could i be? plz help!
(link)
hahaha don't worry you can't get pregnant unless you have sex! don't wry, it was only your first period! its messed up a LOT for the first few times, and then it's still a little messed up for the next two years... my friend got her period for the first time, and then got it for the second time FOUR MONTHS later. haha so don't wry! everything is just going to be messed up A LOT for the first half year or so.... but it you REALLY start getting worried you can go see your doctor, but you have nothing to worry about.


I have auburn/light brown hair and I want to temporarily dye it. I've been told Kool-aid will work on blonde hair.. but will it work on darker hair? My natural color is almost black... so that might have an effect too....

What color of kool-aid should I use on my hair.... and will the kool-aid wash out...

my parents wont let me dye my hair permanently again... so I need something that will wash out in the next day or two....

Please help me! (link)
my sister died her hair with cool aid, but she has dirty blonde hair, and she died it red and it looked good BUT it only tinted her hair, and it smudged all over her bed sheets and it's REALLY REALLY MESSY! and the second that water touched her hair, it washed out. NOT a good idea to do it with coolaid. you can go to a lot of hair stores or drug marts, and there are temporary hair dyes there, some that last a month and some that last just a week. go searching around and you'll find something! but your natural colour probably looks the best on you!:D i hope i helped!:D good luck


I am VERY picky about what I eat... I won't eat most meats... only Peperoni on my pizza (if i have to) and hamburgers. I like junk food ALOT and I eat alot of it... I won't eat most foods other people eat. I have alot of problems when I stay the night with friends because I usually don't like what they are having for dinner.

I am about 5'3-5'4 and i only weigh about 135... it may sound like a lot .. but i have alot of muscle too...

What kinds of foods should I try eating so I will stay healthy?

Is there any way to make myself like more healthy foods? (link)
oo i have the EXACT same problem as you. i am IN LOVE with candy and chocolate... so than i ate it all the time. and since you have so much muscle, im guessing that you are athletic and active. well i'll tell you my story, i HATE so many foods, like i'll only eat a few meats like you, i hate anything fancy, i HATE milk, i just like basic unhealthy food... so i ate candy and chocolate all of the time... and then when playing basketball, soccer, cross country and track and field for my school, i kept on getting head rushes, blacking out, having trouble breathing, and fainting. turns out, have a a LOW blood sugar level (which can cause me to have diabetees in the future) by a lot and now a year later i still faint all the time and i can't play as many sports... you have to start eating healthy NOW! i always take my vitamins now and i take calcium pills and... just eat tons of fruits and veggies, try to have like two things of candy a week (hard i KNOW!) by a cook book and try to find somemthing you like... and another way to stay healthy is you HAVE to have THREE MEALS A DAY! that will keep your body really healthy, even if it isn't the greatest food. i hope i helped!:D good luck


me and this dude has been going on and off for about two years and i love him too death he's my everything. But theres a problem he does stuff that i really dont like, hes not cheating or w/e hes just doing something i think he shouldnt be doing, he says he loves me but right now he has to do what he has to do, since hes been doing that i really dont get to see him as often as i used to, so i feel really bad about this but i cheated on him and i have NEVER done that and i am afraid hes going to find out and then the two years of emotions will be gone, this dude is everything to me and he is the only one that has that special place in my heart and always be the one for me but what if he finds out? :'( (link)
you have to talk to him. like, you have to tell him how much you HATE what he's doing, and you HAVE TO tell him that you cheated on him, explaining exactly what you did with this other person so he can rate how bad it really was. Also, if you have the ability to cheat on him, and if its on and off, it's only your mind tellling you that he is the one for you, it's not your heart talking. after you talk to him, he may break it off with you, but then after that, don't try to get back together with him, keep yourself single and look around, you may notice ppl and things that you didn't notice before. believe me, on and off relationships never work out in the end, and there is someone out there that is going to be PERFECT for you, you just have to be strong, break yourself apart from this guy and move on. it will all turn out for the best, but it will take time. i hope i helped!:D good luck


hey i'm 15, female! There are these to guys...Tyler and Matt...and there both awesome...i've known the both for a long time...and i dated Matt for bout 2months and we broke up for the summer and then me and him made a promise that we would get back together when skool started...well i hadn't see Tyler since like a couple months ago and then i saw him bout a week ago and we have been hanging out alot lately and i told him bout me and Matt..and really i have to choose which one i wanna be w/...i mean there both great and they both give me wat i want....and my mom told me that i wasn't alound to see Tyler cuz his 17..well i'm almost 16 in Dec...and Matt's 15..and i'm older then him...but i was talking to Tyler last nite and i told him bout me and Matt and stuff and he told me that i had a lot of courge to tell him that and that i need to choose and that no matter my choose he will always still be there for me...and matt on the other hand i don't know how he'll act..i jst think he would be really pissed and probably would never talk to me again and i jst don't know wat to do or who to choose or how to decicided who i want!?? What should i do? plZe help A.S.A.P (link)
this is going to be really heard... i mean there are pros and cons of being with both guys... matt is good beccause your mom actually approves of you dating him, but then again it should be easy for you to convince your mom to let you date tyler because, well hes only a year older than you. In my opinion, from the sounds of it it seems as though you like tyler more, because he sounds a lot more understanding,etc. Whereas, you already have gone out with matt and, why did you guys break up? a lot of the time, if it didn't work out the first time, it's just not going to work out overall. and im guessing that you guys broke up for the summer because you wanted to be able to party and fool around, or maybe one of you were going on vacation or something... but if you guys broke up in the summer because of that, he sounds like more like a fling opposed to a good long lasting boyfriend. i think that you should explain to matt, but be sincere about it and just make him understand what you're thinking... go for tyler! i hope i helped!:D good luck


well i kind of like this kid but he really likes my friend. but i really like him. people have said We are such a cute couple and we would be so cute together(and we both kinda agree), and i've heard he has a crush on me but he really strongly likes my friend and i don't wanna tell my friend i like him cause she likes him alot to, but so do i and we flirt alott and i don't know what to do!! plz help!!! (link)
ooo i've been in the same kind of situation as you... and well im going to tell you something that you're not going to want to hear. okay... well you see, your friend and the guy REALLY like each other, but then you REALLY like the guy, and he kind of likes you... do you see where im going with this? i say that you should just let them be happy, and although this is going to depress you, you WILL find someone else for sure. i mean, after the same situation happened to me, an old crush came back into my life, but i hadda wait FOUR MONTHS! it's brutal, but it's worth it... so just let them be, and try your best to be happy for them... i wish you the best of luck and i know that's not what you wanted to hear... im sry but i hope i helped!:D good luck


I don't wanna sound cocky by this, but I wanna make the big time. And I know I have the voice for it too. My friends, family, everyone tells me that I have a fabulous voice and need to be revealed to the public. I've been doing everything musical for my school, community, and town. For example, talent shows, school plays/musicals, taking vocal lessons, in region chorus. But my question is, how can I, a fourteen-year-old from NJ, make it in the music bizz? please help me... i'll rate fast..thanks

-Laur- (link)
oo well it seems as though you're doing really well participating in so many events! just continue to do that... and just like volunteer for events that YOU'LL be the ONLY one singing so that you'll make the newspaper and everything... also try out for FAMOUS musicals and liek broadway... that will do you really well... and then go to new york whenever you have a chance and get gigs in as many places as you can! like i mean... big fancy places, shitty little bars... EVERYWHERE! you're bound to be discovered... but you need like a full month in manhatten! i hope i helped!:D best of luck to you!


i want to paint my room black, and then splat paint it with bright pink. i thin kit would look awsome!!it would really reflect my wild, punk personality..im sure it would. but my mom says she will never paint my room black. i get soooooo pissed off!!!! nop matter what i do she always says no. i want the theme to be pink and black no matter what. please tell me what to do or how to get my mom to consider it!!!

please help!!

-britski- (link)
well what you can do is, if you want your WHOLE rooms theme to be pink and black, start changing everythinig in your room so it is all pink and black... i mean like sheets, chairs, bed covers, lamp shades, notebooks, just like change EVERYTHING pink and black other than the things you have to paint, and then show your mom how serious you are about really wanting to change it, and hopefully she'll give in. if she dosen't... you can just hang sheets up or put paper on your walls with pictures... and tell your mom that your room is the only place that you have to express yourself... just try to persuade her, but it will take time! i hope i helped!:D good luck


My little cousin has down syndrome, and alot of my friends always make fun of people with it and it really can hurt me, i*ve told them before and they say sorry and everything, but they keep saying stuff! What should I tell my friends? Or should I look for new ones? I dunno!! (link)
hey.. .well you're not going to like what i have to say but, there's not much that i can say. i mean, i've gone through the same kind of situation. like, i am REALLY close to this guy that is gay, and we're REALLY REALLY close, and all of my friends always make fun of gay ppl calling them fags and everything... and EVERYTIME that they same someone, i always defend the gay ppl, but it nevers stops them from saying it again. it's annoying as HELL yes, but there's not much that we can do. all we can do is talk to them. but hey, stay friends with these ppl for sure and just continue to screw it into their heads that it bothers you, but look around for new friends as well! im NOT saying ditch your old friends, but hey it's always fun meeting new ppl! i hope i helped!:D good luck


If you gave a guy head and he might have HIV..could you get them too? (link)
sadly but surely.. yes... if a guy has an STD, any form of sex, even oral, can transfer the disease... go and get it checked out as soon as possible! i hope i helped!:D good luck


I think i am very fat. I am 5'1 and i weight 110 pounds..all my friends are tall and they weigh more than me but are skinnier than me. They are all 13 and i am still 12. Sometimes I feel like I am the fattest 12 yr old in the world. Do you think there is a way I could slim up my body? If so could you tell me how? I would really appreciate it. (link)
don't wry, 5'1 and 110 pounds isnt' fat! but, if you feel self conscious about how you look, get involved more! like... start joining house league soccer... and sports at school like cross country and track and basketball/volleyball/soccer! or sign up for a hip hop class or ballet class out of school... get some kind of talent started and persue it! or, if you're not interested in signing up for anything, grab your cd player and favourite cd in the morning and go for a run for like 30 minutes every morning, and then a bike ride or rollerblading for 30 minutes every night! just stay active! i hope i helped!:D good luck


my dad travels almost every week to california. we live in mass. he`s missed my birthday for about 5 years now and my most recent violin concert that was really important to me and my soccer tournament. occasionally he gets weeks off work and travel and stays home or works from home but he`s always in a really bad mood. whever i ask him to stop bitching at me he`s like "what, i`m not in a bad mood! leave me alone!"i try to tell my mom that he`s in a bad mood for no reason at all and ask her to tell him to stop it but she always sticks up for him and says that he has it rough traveling so often, we should give him a break, he`s just tired he`s always been kind, patient, a great person etc etc But even she has to see that he`s being just plain evil sometimes. once i remember i was working on a project with a friend and asked him to cut up a box for him and he said no because he was busy [he was watching tv and eating] so we asked again after he was done with lunch and he said only if we bring everything to him! it was impossible to bring all of the things in the box [it was a clay diorama] to him! it weighed a ton! oh gosh that`s not even close some of the worst he`s done .. i want him to stop because it`s hard enough for me n my bro to have a dad that isnt around much but when he is home, can`t he make an effort not to scream at us for laughing?
i totally appreciate it!!!!

wow that's a really tough situation, and my advice isn't going to help too much i don't think, but im going to try my best! alright, i saw that one time when your dad is out, you and your brother take your mom out for dinner and just bring up the conversation of your dad. Just tell her how you truly feel, and if she tries to just be like "no no no" just tell her to listen for a minute! be so serious and be strong! don't finish dinner until your point has gone through to your mom. then, one time when your dad is home, get your mom and you and your brother to sit at a table and now, do the same thing you did with your mom to your dad... it's going to be hard but it will work out! im sry it wasn't very good advice, but i hope i helped!:D good luck


what do i do about a controlling boyfriend? my boyfriend is allowed to mess around and talk to girls but im not allowed to talk to guys! i found this so unfair and everyone thinks he has total control over me because when we break up, and he asks me back out, i always say yes. is it because i'm weak or i'm just under his little 'spell'? (link)
controlling boyfriends are definitely a NO NO! haha that sounds bad, but i've see so many of my friends with them, and i hate it. and all of my friends went running back to them. in one situation, the girl ended up being so "under his little spell" that he started beating her after a while! talk it over with him again, and if he still isn't going to let you be free, then end it IMMEDIATELY! stay his friend, but be strong! don't go running back to him! there is someone special waiting for you out there, so although its going to be really hard, just wait for another special guy! i hope i helped!:D goodluck


Ok, Well, my boyfriend is 19 years old and he*s in the military..I*m still in highschool..we write letters to each other often and i think about him every single day, but most of my friends say that i should break up with him, I really love him, but he's going to be gone so long! I have 2 years left of highschool, and if I stay with him that means i have to be faithful for 2 years! I dunno what i should do...

I hope you can help..xox (link)
i personally think that you should end it, like DEFINITELY keep on writing to him and DEFINITELY stay really close to him, don't let him become lonely when he's off in the military, but be nice about it and just say "these are my last two years of highschool and i feel as though this is too much of a commetment for me at this age, but i wanna keep on talking to you and everything!" something like that but you know, change it around! have some fun i nyour last years of highschool or you're going to regret it in the future! i hope i helped!:D good luck


14/F ok so i like this guy alot and i have for a while and one of my friends knew about and said she would help me...so she told him i liked him and he told me things couldnt work out so then the next day i was with my friend and the kid i like, and she was all over him! i didn't want to say anything then, but shouldn't i have a right to be mad? oh and to p it all off, he likes her too now!!! ugh i just wish there were cooler guys around here... (link)
ugh that SUCKS! and you have the right to be mad! just seriously go up to your friend and be like "what's going on?!?!?!!" and just let everything out of you... but like try to have no cussing or anything, be as nice and civilized as possible. like, he's not your property or anything, but she shouldn't be all over him so soon.... just talk to her and get her side of the story, and forget about him! let her have him... you'll find a cooler guy... i had the same situation and well, i took the wrong path and didn't talk to her, and now we hate one another, but hey i found a cooler guy! it took a year and a half but i found him! just wait and don't rush anything! i hope i helped!:D good luck


I'm 15, and I'm a 32D/DD. I wear a pant size 3 tho. I'm not FAT. I need to know if anyone knows any good stores for swim suits! I have a problem where I can never find a good suit because either the top is too small or the bottoms are too big. I like it when they sell them seperately. A lot of stores dont sell Xlarge tops too. I NEED HELP (link)
oooo my friend had the same problem! just go to a bunch of different malls, and look for mix and match stores! she's a DD and what we found out is, she used to get bathing suits with no shape thing in them... and her boobs looked really big! so what you should do is get bathing suits with the full cups, so it's kinda like a bra! it nicely shapes them and doesn't makethem look as big! im guessing you live in the us, so we have different stores, but just look around everything, sry i can't help you with the store thing! i hope i helped!:D good luck


Hey, i had a friend problem, like 2 months ago. All my friends had ditched meeh cause they thought i was a bad influenced and i had hurt them too much..when i don't do drugs i dont smoke,. i dont know why they did that. Now they think that i've made a mistake they can never be my friiend again, what do ii do!?

Kimmey (link)
argh! sry this is going to sound bad but, i have stupid friends like that! they all of a sudden said that i hurt them too bad and they ditched me, but i did NOTHING! well what worked for me is, i tried talking to all four of them, and then one of them actually listened and we're buds again! the rest of them, im just going to give them time from me, like a month or more, and then just start slowly chilling with them again... try talking to them one on one and try what i did! i hope i helped!:D good luck


i like this guy at skool and he really loves me and he asks me out all the time.hes not very popular tho and im afarid that ppl will make fun of me. plz help me!!! thanks (link)
hahaha so many ppl think that. it's like, o god he's not cool and now ppl are going to think im not cool. if you really like him, than go out with him but you have to be able to ignore what other ppl have to say! i have a friend who's eighteen and she's going on with a sixteen year old, and of course ppl give her shit saying like she's his babysitter and all that... but she was strong and she just told them to fuck off or grow up, and then just felt stupid in the end, and now everyone accepts it. the first like month is definitely going to be hard, but believe me once you get past there, you're never going to regret it! i hope i helped!:D good luck


How can you tell if your 'cherry is popped'? I'm a virgin but can't tampons sometimes do it? Sorry if it's under the wrong category. (link)
ummm, well it's not like you can like poke yourself to figure it out. when you think it happened, there will be some blood, so that's the only way you can tell. or, if you would really like to know, you can go to a gyno and they can tell you. tampons can do it, but so can biking, horse riding, andmany other things! i hope i helped!:D good luck


My boyfriend dumped me before i went on vacation then a day after i left he went out with one of my friends. When i was talkin to him he told me he still cared about me and hes never loved anyone so much as he loved me..but when i asked him if we wud go out again he sed he didn't know and it sounded like he meant no..We also went out for a long time and were inlove really bad.What do you think i should do? Talk to him or forget him? (link)
FORGET HIM! a problem that all of us girls have is that we can't let go. i mean, he did so many things wrong here...
1. he dumped you A DAY before your big vacation, meaning that the break up is all you're going to think about
2. he went out with one of your friends!!!!!
3. he said that he still had feelings for you, yet he didn't want to go out with you again and..
4. almost the same as the last one but he said he had feelings for you WHILE he was going out with another girl kinda making him sound like a user/cheating kind of guy
if i was you, i would just forget about him, and it's amazing that the saying "there are plenty of other fish in the sea" is ACTUALLY true, it may take time but you will find another guy that will sweep you off your feet! it will take a while, but help yourself to get over him. i hope i helped!:D good luck
