if anyone has had mono how long did it take for you to start recieving symptons? and what we're the first symptoms you had.
i'll rate please help (link)
|
Mono actually can lay dormant in your immune system for almost 3 months before you really see visible symptoms. Symptoms would include the following:
-Exhaustion, being more tired than usual, lack of energy
-Loss of appetiate/nausia
-Swollen glands usually along your neck and back of head, although it can be all over your body
-Flu like symptoms
-Being thirstier than usual
Because it attacks your immune system, it effects everyone differently. The best thing to do is to get as much rest as possible. And altough you may not have an appetite you should try and eat to help build your system back up. Keep fluid down. Some people are better in 2 weeks, other 2 months. If you feel able, you can go to school, just keep your distance from people--don't share food or drink, kissing, etc.

I found out yesterday... i have a diseaseon my ovaries. and i might not beable to have kids when i'm older. and it upsets me because it is going to be so hard for me when im older to try to have kids and if i can't have kids. the doctor told me there is a slight slight change i can treat my problem but can't cure it. not alot of people know and i don't want them too. but my question is.. when i'm older do you think having a boyfriend that really wants kids, jeopardize my relationships? (link)

Well, don't feel alone. Lots of females suffer from things of this nature. I don't know what your disorder is exactly, but I can related because I have something called PCOS (it effects my ovaries too). The best thing to tell you is to try not to dwell on it. And I know it's tough especially being a girl--ever since we are little we think about being a mom! Don't let this gold you back from being you and living your life. Usually, if you can keep your weight down, you have a higher chance of getting pregnant than if you are more so over weight. So, keep that in mind. If you don't want people to know, that's totally fine. It's your personal information. Someday though, you will find someone you'll feel comfortable enough to share that with--and when you find him, they'll accept everything that comes with it. He'll accpet you. And now, with the new technology and sciences there are SO many ways of having children. Also, adoption is always an option. Hang in there. :)

so ive been with this guy for like a month now, but i REALLY like my ex-b/f again. like, i REALLLYYYY like him. i dont have the same feelings for my current b/f anymore. he told me that he loves me and that he would kill himself if i broke up with him. im really scared that he will, and i dont want to chance it. my ex-b/f told my friend that he thinks he likes me again; as more than a friend. and... he also told ME. i dont know who i like more. my birthday is coming up soon, and i heard my b/f got me a present already. rumour has it that its very expensive. what do i do? give it back to him? use it? or do i break up with him before my birthday? PLEASEEEE HELP MEEE! ♥ (link)

Well, I think deep down you probably already know what you have to do: the right thing. Now, your opinion of the right thing, may be different than mine, or even someone else's. Te key is to stay true to who you are, what you want, and be respectful of other people in the process. You need to decided who you want ot be with, plain and simple. If you can't decide between the two of them, you shouldn't be with either. Just because you have two options in front of you, does not mean you have to only choose one of the two. Secondly, you need to be honest. Let's say you decided to be with your ex, in that case you would need to tell your current boyfriend "I think my feelings have changed for you, and I don't want to hurt you or lie to you, but it is unfair to you to keep this up when I may have feelings for someone else even" or something like that. The reason you have to incorporate liking someone, is because if you don't, and he finds you with the other guy, he's gunna be devastated. Secondly, you need to tell your ex, that if he does like you, he needs to respect you and wait until you have stuff squared away with the current boyfriend. Ultimately, only you can decide what to do, just listen to your heart. And also, as far as the present, you shouldn't accept something like a promise ring or anything from him, but if it's like a purse or something, sure. Now, you should tell him before your boyfriend. Good luck. :)

this year is the first year im going to homecoming. and idn if im supposed to buy a boutineer (sp?) for my date! i dont know if he knows either! please help me! lol. because its like, next week (link)
| |
Well, generally, yes. But it is totally up to you and your date. He is suppose to buy you a corsauge and you are suppose to get him a boutineer. You should correlate colors (usually something that goes well with the colors in your dress) They aren't too costly. You can get them any where from a large grocery store (floral depo) or a florist shop. Have fun. :)

I've never really heard of him and don't know much about it so this could be wrong but here's what I came up with:
http://www.soundclick.com/pro/view/01/default.cfm?bandid=12347&content=lyrics&songid=3382950
That's the only thing I could find. Also, if you post/message on a lyrics website you want the lyrics sometimes they get them for you. :)

I know it can be a big bummer when it seems like everyone around you is buying and getting all sorts of new stuff for school--but the trick is to utilize what you do have and then buy. So for a backpack--you don't just have to use an acutual backpack or anything fancy. Right now, oversized bags/purses are really in as bookbags. You may already have one on hand. Also, sometimes small carry on bags (like for lugguge) can double up as a book carrying bag. It's nothing to be embarassed or ashamed about. Vintage/creative is very in right now. If you do HAVE to buy a backpack, a lot of second hand stores are going to be carrying them right now because of going back to school. So check there. They may even give it to you free if you explain your situation. You may also want to go and get a really kiddish backpack like a Bob the Builder one or some type of cartoon. Those are really in right now. As far as paper and other small school supplies, try getting like one of those five section spirals that lets you tear out the paper and it even has dividers and pockets in it. Right now, a lot of school stuff is on sale for buy one get one free or like 50 cents. You have to shop around. Don't go for flashy, go for practical. You can get plain colored folders for 10 cents each at like walgreens. If you want it to be designed cut out things from magazines you like and put a clear tape over it (like lamenating)--this too is in right now. As far as pens--look around your house, you'll find TONS. And, if you need more, buy in bulk in stead of one real fancy one. As far as clothes, have a garage sale or sell them to a resale shop local to your area. You can use the extra money to buy stuff. Go to places like a resale/thrift shop such as Goodwill, Christian Ministries, Value Village. These places have things for as cheap as 1 buck and your clothes will be new to everyone because you just moved. As far as your hair cut, you can get anyone to give you a trim. Your mom could do it for you. And then style it differently for a fresh look. Don't stress yourself about money--be excited for school. Everything will work out. :)

hey i can do my eyeliner on my bottom eye lid, but i have trouble doing on my top eyelid, wich is the main one, and it takes me for ever!! any tips on putting top eyelid eye liner?? (link)
|
I just copied this from the same question recently asked, so here you are:
For the top or your eyelid, close the eye that you are applying it to, and keep the other open to see. Put the pencil as close to your lash line as you possibly can. It looks best when it just fades out towards the middle of the eyelid. To do this easily, get a liner pencil that has the pencil on one end and a smudger on the other end. Create a clear line that does almost to the middle, and use the smudger to just gently make a soft line that goes to the middle or just past. I'd recommend an eyeliner pencil for this, that has a smudger on it--I believe CoverGirl carries one. Also, You want to put the eyeliner on after you apply shadow, but before you apply mascara.:)

i didnt know what category to put this in but anyway..
i want to change the format of my screen name and it wont let me. whenever i try it says "UNKNOWN ERROR. Please try again later." i dont know why it wont let me change it.
thanks! (link)

Depending on what version of AIM you are currently using, it may vary slighty. But here you go: When you are signed on to AIM, at the top of your buddy list click on the option that says "My AIM", drag down to "Edit Options" and then "Format Screenname". That should do it for you. :)

i want to get my cartiledge pierced. does it hurt more than getting your ears pierced? and like idk just tell me what it is like and what i should know. also for girls does it matter what ear? thansks (link)
| |
Well, I would recommend getting it peirced at an actual piercing studio and not somewhere like Clares. At Clares and other similar places they are going to pierce you with a gun. In many states, it is actually illegal to pierce anything but lobes with a gun. You want to get it with a needle. Doing so eliminates or lessens the risks of developing a "bump" on the back of your ear caused by the pressures of the gun. Also, with a gun you can only get a stud put in at first. It is painful--more so than just the lobes, but it's not terrible. It will be throbbing and very sore at first and you will not be able to sleep on that side for possible up to 2 months. You should never twist the piercing like places like Clares tell you too. Make sure to clean it how you are told to do so. And generally, most girls get it on the left, but it really does not matter. Best of luck. :)

I can totally relate--in a sense. My mom is my best friend. We do everything together. My biggest fear is her not being here for me or being able to do things (her health is not great). While sometimes those facts get me down, I have to remind myself that hard as it may be, it's life process. You have to cherish everything and every moment. Live without regret. You have to keep the memories alive--no matter what. Have mom and daughter days. When you have the oppurtunity to watch a good movie together--do it. Take lots of pictures. Write. Laugh. Live. Tell your mom how you feel. Or when she asks about your day, don't just say "fine". I know it's scary when you think about the possible future, but you can't let yourself dwell on it too much because you pass up so many great experience during that time. You just have to remind yourself that no matter you are your mom's daughter, and you carry parts of her in you. Don't feel alone either, a lot of people have this same fear/anxiety. Just live in the moment. :)

Ok, lets say a girl has a lot of hair. Like she has really bad sideburns like a guy would, and a really thick mustache and she grows hair on and under her chin and on her neck like a beard. I heard that taking birth control pills would help hair like that to stop growing. Does anybody know if this is true? Thank you for all of your help. Any response is welcomed. (link)
|
Excessive hair growth on a female in generally caused by a hormonal imbalance. Basically, as crappy as it sounds--some girls have more guy hormones. Yes, certain types of birth controls will aid with this--but not make it go away. There are a couple of solution--or rather, choices:
Waxing/Threading *DO NOT EVER SHAVE THE HAIR ON YOUR FACE*
Electrolosis--it is a bit more expensive
And lastly, laser treatments, but they are very costly and are not covered by your insurance.
After removing your hair there is a cream called Vaniqa. It doesn't eliminate hair it just SLOWLY stunts the hair growth.
My guess is if you are experiencing this problem you may have some other female issues. Such as: weight gain, irregular periods, acne, or possibly something called PCOS and etc.
As akward as it may be for you, your best bet would be to see a gynocologist so they can test your hormone levels.
Don't feel ashamed or alone. A lot of girls have this same problem. :)

okay so i need to lose a few pounds within tha next couple weeks and i was wondering if anyone knew anything that help or has any ideas and stuff?
thanks. (link)
|
Well if you are just looking to lose a few in the next couple of weeks there are a few things you can do easily:
Eliminate the following from your diet:
-Soda/Juices/Sugary drinks
(Stick to water or flavored waters)
-Junk food such as: chips, cookies, sweets etc.
(Kick the crave with a peice of fruit)
Add to your daily regimen:
Physical activities of any form
(Walking/jogging, jump rope, etc.)
Lean proteins like chicken instead of fattiet cuts of meat
Lettuce has no nutritional value so if you are going to eat a lot of salads pair it up with fish, chicken, or shrimp or something like that. Using a light vinegrette dressing will be healthier than a heavy ranch as well.
Get some rest! When you sleep--you burn calories!
And lastly, be cautious of low carb/no carb diets..while you can lose up to about 15lbs in just 2 or 3 weeks, you may have a hard time keeping the weight down once off the diet.
The key is to make smart choices.
Good luck. :)

I was wondering how long it takes for marijuana to get out of your system. I didn't do it!, but someone I know did. And I am concerned about them. My school does random drug tests too by taking a little tiny piece of your hair. So does anyone know how long? Please actual facts not just guesses. Thanks! (link)
| |
Well, a urine test can detect it for 7 days, blood test- 28 days, hair follicle test approx. 6 months. Depending on when your friend did it--probably within the last 6 months--he/she has a good chance of it being detected. Tell him/her to stay away from the drugs. :)

Okay,... I don't know if this is in the right category, but...
I just put in a tampon for the first time. Do you have to take out a tampon before you pee? I have to pee while it's in. Is this normal? (link)
| |
Yes, it is completely normal for you to pee with a tampon in. Actually, if the tampon is dry and you need to take it out before it's full for some reason, peeing with it in will make it less painful to pull out. You can also go # 2 with it in if you want/need to. Just make sure the string doesn't get caught back there--I know that sounds silly, but true! :)

I am bulimic. Does God hate me for it?
It's a sin. (link)
|
Well everyone has their different religious beliefs--so I can't answer that for you exactly. But no, I don't believe God hates. I think God always has our best interest in mind. I am sure he doesn't like that you are hurting yourself, but he'd pronbably want you to get help. The fact that you are asking if he hates you because of it shows that you care and maybe want to make a change. So do it. I know it's easier said than done, but forcing yourself to purge is harmful. There are so many health related risks involved. You really need to get to the root of why all of this started. Simply put, I am sure you didn't like the way you looked--and you took drastic measures. You need to love yourself. Be proud of who you are. Here is a great website that walks you through everything about the disease and ways to get help. Visit: http://www.supportline.org.uk/problems/bulimia.php
Good luck. :)

My boyfriends wants me to send him a picture of my pussy to his phone. I don't really want to. How can I tell him I'm not going to without making it seem like I don't love him? (link)
| |
Your integrity and dignity are all you have. NEVER jeoporidise that for a guy. No matter how much you love him, you shouldn't do anything you don't want to do. He needs to RESPECT you first and foremost. Asking that of you is NOT respectful. You need to communicate upfront with him upfront and say "That makes me feel really uncomfortable, and violated; I won't do it!" If he doesn't take no, tell him to hit the road. It sounds harsh, but asking you to do something degrading like that isn't right. He could show that to friends (he most likely will, evne if he says he won't) and tell people. Your reputation could be ruined. Even if you think it's worth it, it's not. Never hold your tongue for what you know deep down is right. :)

i need to know if it is ok for an 17 year old and an 23 year old to date my cusion is seeing this guy and no body wants to get in troublb so will somebody tell me something please!!! (link)
| |
Well obviously the age difference is going to matter to some people. Depending on the state you live in, there are age restrictions where you can get in trouble for that. Some states consider 17 an adult and some 18. It just depends. If you cousin sleeps with the guy there is a likelyhood of the guy being charged for rape with a minor. If you search the net for info on your state, you'll find out. Generally, it's okay for there be to an age difference just so long as the older person has the right intentions. You have to wonder, why would someone that much older not want someone his own age? It could be so simple as maturity wise he connects better--or it could be he has not-so-innocent intentions. Just tell your cousin to be careful. And remember, you should never have to hide or lie about a relationship. :)
