About chaos



It's another crazy year in my world of entropy. I am engaged now and very excited. It will be a little while before we can get married due to money constraints, but it will happen.
I like things simple. I hope to give honest and useful advice. I don't believe in giving answers just to get good feedback. 98% of all questions put in my inbox will be answered. The only ones I don't answer are those too young to be here or too obscene/disrespectful. I don't know everything, but I think I can help a lot.

when i laugh really hard i start to pee..its starting to get embarrising. is this a problem? or what can i do to stop?

You might want to bring up to the doctor. He could probably just tell you to do some Kegel exercises to help your bladder. There are a bunch of things that could be wrong: infection, bladder isn't big enough, or you could be overweight (it puts more pressure on your bladder).
You may consider putting a pantilner in your underwear as well.

Hi! I'm having thoughts about marriage, I'm a 19/f btw. I recently viewed the film, Romeo and Juliet and was wondering on what other people's opinions are. Do you think Romeo and Juliet got married too soon? Why or why not? I'd like to talk to someone about this. I gove good ratings. Thank you in advance. =)

They probably should have tried to mend the differences between their parents. They got married pretty soon, but like everyone else said, it was a time when people didn't live as long.

I encourage you to write down your goals and figure out how many you need to accomplish before you get married. 19 is really young. Ideally, I wanted to be married after college-like 25 or so. I wanted to live on my own for no less than 3 years and be able to support myself before sharing responsibilities with someone else. I would highly encourage attending at least 2 years of college because that social dynamic is so much different than high school.

hey i am on my second week of the patch, and i need sum advice. If you are on or ahve heard ne thing about ortho evra what have yuou heard. does it make yer skin better, or did u hear of people gaining weight and getting hella acne?

Chances are that it makes it worse for a little bit because all of your hormones have to rebalance.

Ok so here's the deal... everytime my boyfriend fingers me it makes me have to go pee even if I went right before that! does anybody know why?!?

Maybe you are just extra sensitive. Or you could just be nervous. It's actually a good thing because it kills any bacteria that was transferred from his hand. Weird, I know.

hey, i am a single parent of a one year old son, my relationship with the father of the child feel thru last year in november i was livivng with him and left to comeback home and i was unemployed at that time i left my job to move towns and live with him then after i came back home was not employed for 3months and had no form of income i asked the father to support hes child not with cash we agreed he could but the stuff he needed and send it on its own but he refused told me if i cant take care of he son i should bring him and he will do so every since i have not asked for any thing but i feel there is a need for him to support he child i am since employed but my salary can just about manage the costs, i dont know how i can get assistance form him for he has not been cooperative lately, my mother has adviced me to seek alawyer for maintenance but my dad feels there is no need for it says i should not worry about him he wiill come back one day wantin to see him but the tables would have turned. waht do i do now

You need a lawyer. Just buying stuff for the child is not good enough. You have a household that needs to be in good condition for the sake of the child's health. If you can't afford one, contact your local social services for assistance.

i have been with my boyfriend for almost 3 years now and weve had our fair share of fights and break ups with eachother. but lately weve been doing so good...being honest and respecting one another. he just turned 21 and i am 17, but trust me, sometimes i think im the one acting more his age than my own and vice versa. but heres the problem...he just recently moved about an hour and a half away from me to his moms house. weve done the long distance thing before and were fine with it. we usually get through it pretty good. he was recently in a horrible accident and had a fractured skull and other horrible injuries. he is fine now though and is back to his normal self. but ever since he moved down to his moms house about a week ago, hes been out like crazy. with friends he just met down there. we fought about it all week. i felt like he didnt care anymore. then about 2 days ago he finally agreed to stop hanging out with them because we agreed its not fair that he doesnt want me going out with my friends all the time so its not fair for him to either. so anyways, he went to his friends house 2 days ago and ended up getting drunk and having fun. then, later that night, he told me that his friend had to go somewhere so he asked my boyfriend to keep an eye on his girlfriend while he was gone.(his girlfriend is 15 or 16 years old.) ..my boyfriend said yes and when it got really late, my boyfriend offerred to take the girl and her sister and her sisters boyfriend back to his moms house to sleep because they felt uncomfortable in someone elses house. they went back and he told me the girl slept in his brothers room(his brother doesnt live there right now.), and her sister and her sisters boyfriend took his room, while he slept on the couch. i was very mad at that but then today he tells me that the girls boyfriend called him today saying he heard that his girlfriend was sitting in between my boyfriends legs on the couch at his house earlier that night. i got very mad at this and dont know what to think. should i believe my boyfriend when he tells me nothing happened and it isnt true or should i think twice on his faithfullness to me?? he HAS been loyal lately but i dont know what to think. he even gave me the girls boyfriends number so i can call him and get to the bottom of this...i have never met these people but cant call the boy because he has only his nextel clicky number on him(my boyfriend) and i dont have a nextel.

What a mess. Ok, telling him he can't see any friends is wrong. It's terribly controlling, and he shouldn't expect you to do that either. You are making yourselves miserable.
If you can't trust him, you have to get rid of him. Tell him that you are taking his word this time, but please don't do anything to make you believe he is cheating. It's hard enough not seeing each other much. I really do think you will both feel better if you just called it quits for good because an on again off again relationship in which you both aren't happy isn't worth the time. Good luck.

Yesterday I(17) met this guy snowboarding(20) and he gave me his number and i called him last night and he wanted to hang out tonight but i had to babysit till 8 so he called me around 8 wen i shoudlve been done and asked to hang out but it ended up i was gonna have to babysit longer so i told him that i couldnt and he was like well i have to go to school tomorow (wednesday)and im not sure what im doin after that and he was like well give me a call wen u have some free time and then we said bye.im not sure tho if he means hes not sure what hes doing after class on wednesday or just like the whole next few days ...so im not sure if it would be dumb to call him like thursday afternoon? what do u think?

Guy pretty much mean what they say. So when you have some free time or know you will, call him. He just didn't want to bug you to death.

Ok my sister aint doing good in skool and my parents are saying she wont make it into college and she always cries. I know she is smart and I was just wonderin if u have any good college choices?

Tell your sister that they are wrong. She should pour her energy into school and get the best she can out of it. If her parents won't support her, she should try working part time and going to school part time. She could even start at a small community college where the tuition is a little lower. There are tons of scholarships to be had for disadvantaged as well as smart people.
She can do it, even if her grades are only average; she may just have to put more energy into it.

my best friend went out with a guy... and they never pay attention to me when were out.. so one day my friend says please come to the game today and i go why and she goes cuz i want you and i said if you can take me home and she says yeah.. we go to the game and of course she ditches me for her boyfriend.. to make it worse she goes to me can you find a ride home me and (her boyfriend) are going out to eat.. then she leaves me.. i come home and she apologizes but she doesnt get how mad it makes me but im not gonna tell her cuz it will make everything weird.. i dunno i just need to complain to someone.. if you can help please give advice

That is rude, obnoxious, and dangerous. They could have at least dropped you at home before they went out to eat. You really do need to talk to her. And I would bring it up the next time she offers to take you somewhere, so that you are assured that it will not happen again.
Don't just tell her "I'm pissed off." Tell her how disappointed you are that a friend abandoned you. And that you really don't enjoy being put in that place again.

do you think it's better if a 17 year old dates a 25 old?! or do you think it's better for me wait until i'm 27 and he's 35?!

Don't wait until you're 27. You only need to wait a couple of years. The deal is that you don't want to be unduly influenced by someone who knows the ways of the world before you, and can take advantage of that knowledge to use against you. Now, you are very close to having a pretty good head on your shoulders and being out of your parents direct supervision. So, you will be better able to enjoy being with the older guy when you are both sharing more similar lives anyway.

OK i am going to paris on march 12 for a week with my school and i was just wondering if like anyon new the weather there at that time in march. Is it true that when you go in to the lue that you arnt souspose to show any skin. What time of clothes do they were lyk brown and blacks. Do they were a like pinks and yellow?

-Thank You For Any Help

I don't know about the loo thing. But if you don't want to be singled out as "there goes an american" leave your sneakers at home. It doesn't matter what your clothes look like. What you want is to be comfortable.
Here's the daily:http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/businesstraveler/local/FRXX0076?lswa=WeatherLocalUndeclared&lswe=Paris

So just make sure you have long sleeves, short sleeves, long pants, shorts, rain gear, and a sweater. That should cover you at least. You could always get a new outfit while you're there!

Well, I have this bf.. and i like him sooo much and i know he likes me too, but.. hes still in that "prude stage" so we arent really gettin anywhere fast.. if ya know what i mean. And im one of those girls who likes attention and i cant stand that i dont really get that from him.. and i dont know what to do or how to tell him..?? please help! :/

There is nothing wrong with "prude stage." Be happy there is someone who just likes you for you. If you hold on, you will get attention.
It's normal to think you can't stand it, but trust me when he does decide to even just touch you, you'll melt.
But tell him that you would at least like some cuddling, hugging, kissing once in a while. Guys do not take hints well, so just come out and tell him.

i have a mad big problem with eating im skinny but all i do is eat my friends think its so disgustin how much i eat and sometimes i eat so much i just want to throw up and then eat some moe i dont know whats wrong with me and i eat when im happy sad mad bored hungry full i dont care i just eat and eat and never gain one pound which im happy about and i want to stop because i eat so much it makes me sick but i still wanna eat after that im so confused

There could be something medical wrong with you. It could be that your thyroid is upping your metabolism too high. You could have swallowed a tapeworm (which is unlikely but possible). Talk to your mom about going to the doctor to figure out what is going on.

On monday 7th I went to the movies with this guy I like him and he asked me out and I said YES. (doesnt go to my school). On tuesday 8th some guy I also liked asked me out after school (goes to my school) I said YES. I was going to break up with one of them but I dont know which one I should break up with. I think the guy who goes to my school is going out to get laid and bc im older then him n he likes me. Then the other guy is going out with me bc he likes me and wants to get laid. BUT then again all guys want to get laid. Who do I chose or how do I chose one?

To me this just sounds like a single date. A date does not a relationship make. Unless two of you have made some understanding, then it would be necessary to break up with one of them. Just because the idiot wants to get laid, doesn't mean you have to have sex with him. I don't think you have to choose until after your dates.

How do you get your husband away from the t.v. and spend time with the children?

Find a really cool class they can enjoy together like making kites or something. Or some other little hobby/art thing. Actually going to a game instead of watching it on the tube.

My teachers are really mad cause I miss a lot of school because Im always sick. My mom is a smoker and i always get strep and other respitory illnesses. I always make up the frickin homewrok I miss and I always pass the tests and stuff. Im a pretty good student for a 15 yr old that wud rather make out with Bin Laden then go to school. Today i went to school and went through all of my classes. When I got home my dad told me they wanted me to go to saturday school, a place they send bad kids to make up work like if they dont do their homework. I made up all the work from the last time I was absent, and none of the teachers told me about it today. Im really mad and dont know wut to do. Its for three hours tomorrow and starts at 8 30 am. I recently started a petition to end a class that a lot of people dont need called CAI, I was wondering if that might be a reason why all of a sudden I have to go to that stupid thing. SOrry if it doesnt make any sense lol... i like answering questions much more than asking them.

THANX!... I guess I rate high *shrugs* and i'll ignore bitchy ppl. l8r

Who knows what they are plotting...all I can say is try to make the best of it. Sometimes even if you make up work, they insist you attend night school or summer school if you miss too many days. So I would say at least its not summer school.

OK. I'm allergic to fake earings and it really sucks. I can't get those earings with fake silver that only cost a dollar anymore. Is there any way I can were fake earrings(not clip-ons) with getting a rash on my ear?

thanx

You could try taking them apart and mounting them on new posts. You can get them at Hobby Lobby.

My dog urinates on my mothers pillow every few weeks I have no idea why. Can you give me any ideas why? Thanks. (PS- we have no other pets)

You need to clean the pillow with some sort of pet cleaner from the store. If it doesn't get clean, he thinks it's ok to use the bathroom there because he's done it before. They have a sharper sense of smell and can smell it even if you think it is clean. Maybe mom should just get a whole new pillow entirely.

Hi everyone,
My school doesn't do work experience until 6th form. However, I want to do a child care course, and they don't do the relevant course at my school's 6th form. I am going to go to another 6th form and take it there but the only problem is that you need work experience to get onto the course!! I've considered working voluntarily in a nursery during my summer holidays, but do you think that could count as work experience? Like, would anyone even want to employ me if it isn't for official work experience, and would they be willing to write me a work experience-type report?
Thanks!! xx

Yes volunteering does count! Make sure to write down who you volunteered for and how to get in touch with them.

I bought a house back in Oct. 2004. When we were moving in, we noticed that there were still things from the previous owners. They said that they had a few things to take out of the house at closing. They also had said that there was a large pile of brush and other trash items in the back yard that were going to be picked up later that day. This did not happen. They are now telling us that they don't have to clean it up and that it is our responsibility. The problem is that in our area we have to pay for someone to come and pick up that stuff, or pay to drop it off at the landfill.
Whose responsibility is it? Thanks!

If there is nothing in writing saying that they were obligated to clean it up, then you are probably stuck with it. If you had refused to move in until it was done, that would have worked out better (but was probably impossible). I would say try to take him to small claims court, but by this time I would just take care of it myself.
