about

I'm Christina, and I'm 27. I tend to be brutally honest when I give advice or an opinion. I don't tell people what they want to hear but rather what they need to hear. They don't always appreciate it at first, but I usually get a thank you in the end.

I have 15 tattoos, and 8 piercings. I'm married and just gave birth to a baby boy in May. I'm currently a SAHM so you can find me taking care of my son and binge-watching television while he naps.

advice

What age do you think is the right age to have a boyfriend? I am 13 but Im not sure what age is the right time. Thanks!

Whenever you think you can handle the drama of boyland.

do heat packs/patches you buy at the store help you when youre cramping from your period? abs and lower back?

Yeah.

Is it possible for your mom to be your sister?
I think it is but my friend says it isn't
My theroy is that your dad has a kid then your dad and his kid make you. therefore, your mom is your sister because you and your mom are both kids from your dad.
My friend keeps saying that it's not possible.

Do you think i'm right or not?

Yeah, I think that's possible.

I posted a question before about this and I've been depressed for several days now so... What's wrong with me???

You more than likely suffer from depression.

Click search & find a page. If you have 5 or more of those symptoms for a 2 week period or longer, see a psychiatrist because you may be suffering from depression.

how many times should one urinate in one day

I don't really count how many times I potty, but I would say about 5-10 times a day?

What do i do about the outer corner of my jeans' waistband? It curls out, so that when I put on a tshirt over them, the tshirt sticks out there! So, now i have on this cute skinny tshirt with a pointy place where my jeans stick out!

Go to a tailor & have them fix it.

how do i put pictures as my captions for my pictures on myspace

Do you want a picture of yourself, or a picture of something else?

If you want a picture of yourself:

- Take a picture of yourself, upload it to your computer.
- Resize it.
- Go to www.tinypic.com & upload it there.
- Get the IMG code.
- Take the [IMG][/IMG] tags off the end.
- Place into this code:
- Go onto MySpace.
- Put that code into the place for your caption & click save.

If you want a picture of something else:

- Go to www.tinypic.com.
- Search something.
- Get the IMG code.
- Take the [IMG][/IMG] tags off the end.

So i blocked this guy that i like because my friend told him i liked him and he and i hardly know eachother (other than a few messages we've talked through & seeing eachother at school even though we've never said hi or even talked in person before) and i was really embarrassed and sad and mad that my friend did that. anyways..my friend told me that the guy i like already had a gf and everything but i was so depressed that night that i blocked my friend and the guy i like. welll now i really regret blocking the guy i like because that was stupid. i already forgave my friend and added him back, but is there anyway to get the guy i like back on my friends list WITHOUT having to send him a friend request??? please please please help!!

Nope. You have to send him a friend request in order to get him back as a friend.

i think i may be bipolar. im happy one minute, sad the next, ticked off the next, and then fine the next minute. i saw this commercial, where u can get a packet online, and it will teach you how to treat it and everything. now, should i get that packet, and do whatever it says, or should i get professional help from a doctor?

thanks

See a professional.

Some stupid packet & website won't diagnose you with a mental disorder. Only a psychiatrist can do that.

what is the theme song for the simple life?
it goes like this ...
hey miss hilton you must be worth and _________ bucks. get the feeling that you don't really give a f***.

It's called "Hey Miss Hilton" & it's by The Penfifteen Club.

It goes:

Hey Miss Hilton, you must be worth a trillion bucks. Get the feeling that you don't really give a fuck.

You can find the lyrics basically anywhere.

well you know how if someone you know/you're having suicidal thoughts you should tell someone or call that hotline or whatever? well is it really that necessary? i myself on occasion have suicidal thoughts/feelings and if somebody did that to me i would honestly feel betrayed and i think it would be completely unnecessary. i'm not a doctor, so i guess i would not know for sure. but if i'm having or sometimes have thoughts about suicide is it really that big of a deal that needs immediate attention? like i don't think about it all the time only occasionally..

Yeah, it is necessary.

If you know someone who is having suicidal thoughts you & didn't get them help by telling someone & they killed themselves, the guilt would be extremely hard & you wouldn't know what to do with yourself. Not to mention it'd just be horrible in general that you knew & didn't speak up.

I can understand a feeling of betrayal if someone did that for you, but they're saving your life because they care, not because they're out to piss you off.

Ok, I have two questions about college. One, can you do anything with a minor? If not, then what is the purpose?

Two: If you pledge a sorority and are accepted, then does that mean you HAVE to live in its house??

Yeah, you can. A minor is usually a backup [in my opinion] so that if your major falls through, you've still got something you like that you can study.

I'm not exactly sure, but you can ask.

17/f/Australia.

It's almost summer here in Austraila and I really need help with my wardrobe.
I hate summer and basically live in black skinny jeans.
People describe me as emo/scene.
I don't like it but that's what people say. And I'm only writing it here to give you an idea of my style of clothing.
What on earth can I wear for summer??
I'm petite if you need to know.

Any pictures would be great.
But whatever you do don't give links to or tell me to wear fluro clothing. It's one thing I cannot stand.

Thanks so much to anyone who can help me!

Try Bermuda shorts & cute skirts with leggings.

I wanted to know if you masterbate and start bleeding if its nothing to worry about and if your bleeding and you start masterbating if its safe or not

You didn't refer to whether you were male or female or not..

Uhm, if you're masturbating and you're a girl & you bleed, you probably just broke your hymen.

If you're a guy & you're masturbating & you start bleeding, then I'll have to say that's abnormal & that you should probably see a doctor.

is it possible to acquire food poisoning by eating two foods together? are any foods eaten together deadly?

I don't think so.

I know food posisoning can be aquired from the food being expired, someone not washing their hands before they prepared it, or having a dirty preparation place.

on your about me, how do you put a picture on the left, then all your words starting from the side of the picture, on the right.

i'm so confused.
i hope anyone knows what i'm talking about.
i don't know how to explain it

Do you mean this?

Hi. Okay, well. For Christmas, my sister, brother & I all got cell phones for Christmas-and we have the basic plan along with 250 texts each [pr. month]---that costs $5.

I've been begging my mom to get unimited texting, which is $5 more than what we have. I've even offered to pay for it!

But anyways, here's the bad part.
Plain and simple, I went over last month ($10 worth) as did my brother- and she didn't make us pay for it.

Then I did it again this month-about $50 worth--as did me, my sister and my brother. It obviously wasn't done intentional, but she tells me that I should have learned from it the first time. And then she goes on to say that "there's no reason to haev unlimited texting"...
Obviously there is, if I just went over.
But anyways, she
a) took away my phone for a month
b) is making me pay for it
c) i can't go out for a whole week, (with Halloween being an exception...but I have to go with my little cousins.)

I basically wrote a whole gigantic e-mail and I told her that it was unfair that if I was paying for it and my phone (my LIFELINE) was taking away for a month, that's basically enough for a punishment. I really want to go to a party tomorrow, it's a sleepover party. The boy that I like is going to be there, and I rarely see him because he lives in another town. I really want to go because of that and a TON of my other friends are going. Additionally, I already told my friend that I was going to her party last night. Ive been looking forward to this all week.
I told her that I didn't need to sleep over, to try and bargain with her....

So what do you think I should do?

thank you for taking the time to read this.

You need to take into consideration what your mom is going through right now. She's paying bills, more than likely working to support you & your siblings, & to support herself. She sets rules for a reason.

I realize the rules she has set about unlimited texting is unfair, BUT it is a rule & it goes as she says, so don't argue. If you argue with her, she'll never come to terms with you & you will be fighting with no one but yourself.

Talk to her nice & calm about it, and see if it changes. I think her punishment is actually pretty fair. Why should your mother have to pay for something you did? You knew you shouldn't have gone over, but you did it anyways & it wasn't just something small like $10, it was $50 and that's a lot of money for your mother to bail you out of. She shouldn't have to do that. I realize it was accidental, but your mother can't always dig you out & pay rediculous cell phone bills. She's not covering just you - she's covering you, your brother, your sister & her's as well which could add up to a pretty pricey bill considering you guys are teenagers & teenagers would die without a cellphone.

Honestly though, talk to her nicely & see if she'll let you go. If not, you've gotta deal with it. Punishment is punishment & you can't just get special treatment because some guy you like is gonna be at your friend's party. If she lets you go, then she has to let your brother & sister go out as well and that completely goes against what she's done.

Who does that?
