about a month ago i started using crest whitestrips but they started like burning my teeth so i stopped using them and now when i eat chocolate or pretty much anything that has sugar in it hurts my teeth. is there anything i can do to stop my teeth from being sensative? (link)
This is happening because Whitestrips and other teeth whitening products, strip the enamel off of your teeth. Leaving them sensitive, etc.

I would use a toothpaste made for sensitive teeth, and talk to your dentist about this. He/she may be able to help you with this.


ok, the other day i was speaking to my cousins mate online (him and my cousin are 13 im 14) and my cousin's mate (alex) he gave me some boys email address and said that he was in his class at school so i added him and he came online and said who is this blah blah blah...
anyway we got to talking and i said who i was nd that nd he said i think i know you send me a pic of you so we swapped pics etc. and i thought he was cute, but then i thought and i remembered he's like a year younger than me but i keep lookin at his pic and i just keep thinking "he is sooo cute" and it was right after he had seen my picture he was acting really nice.
But, he's a year younger than me, i dont really "know" him and im never guna meet him (he lives like half an hour away) but i think he's like really nice but all we'll ever do is talk on msn!!!
so, do i just keep on talking to him blah blah blah...or should i not talk 2 him as much bcoz i think that he more i talk 2 him, the more i might like him :S...i really dont know!!!

thanks for ANY answers

As long as you know who this guy is, and he's not some stranger I don't think there is anything wrong with it at all. But the only thing, is if you feel you can't handle your feelings, knowing that you will not be able to see him, I wouldn't do it. Because you're feelings will probably grow for this guy, so it's really your decision. Whatever makes you feel comfortable and happy -- go ahead!

Good Luck! :)


Hey. Well on the Grey's Anatomy commercial that plays on Lifetime(show), there's this song that's starts out like

"The first love is the deepest..."

Well I don't know the rest so if you know what I'm talking about I would really appreciate it you told me what the song is called and who it's by. Thanks (link)
"First Cut is The Deepest" by Sheryl Crow.


how do you delete places you've been to on the computer? i know bc i have done it b4 but i forgot...thnx a bunch (link)
You can do this by clicking on "Tools," while on the internet. And you should see "Internet Options" or "Delete Browsing History." This depending on whether you have upgraded to the new Internet Explorer, or have the old version. Old version -- internet options. New version -- delete browsing history.

On either one, after you have clicked on it, then you should see "Delete History" and "Delete Cookies." You want to delete both of these, and there you go. :)


Well the sims 2 requirements are 256 mb RAM.
I HAVE NOO idea what the heck that means but I checked the windows system properties and it says I have 1.00 gb RAM. Now I did Physics so I know giga is bigger than mega...but my question is if it will work?

My free space is 42.6 gbs....so WILL SIMS 2 WORK ON THAT SPACE? OR do I need more? (link)
Yes, The Sims 2 should work on your computer. However, you will not have very much space left on your computer, and it may run slower than usual. To help your computer from being slow (if you do not already do this) you should defragment your computer at least once a week.

You can defrag your computer, by going into your Start Menu, and All Programs. Next, click on "Accessories" and "System Tools." Now, you should see "Disk Defragment." Click on it, and click, "Defrag." :)


well on this site i answered a persons question and even elaborated on it and they gave me a 2 what is that? (link)
If they have you a two, then this means that the person did not like or find your advice helpful. If you think that you recieved an unfair rating, file an abuse report.


Okay, 2 days ago I shaved "down there." Im a girl, by the way. And now it ITCHES so bad. I dont know what to do! What can I do to make it stop itching..I put lotion on, that didnt really help though. (link)
Unfortunately, this is normal. One reason for this being, razor burn. You will have this for awhile. And the stubs are going to be there, and that certainly does not help you out either. And by the way, putting lotion on it makes it worse. So sadly, it will not help. I wouldn't put anything on it, down there. My advice is to leave it alone for about a week, and it should stop. Good luck! :)


I want to buy Sims 2 really soon...maybe today or tomorrow!

Last time I went to buy it they said it might not play on laptops..due to some crap! Later in the year I went on vacation and my cousin had it playing on her computer (laptop also!)

My question is does it work on laptops? My laptop is a dell and is a windows XP btw (link)
Yes, I have this game and have played it both on desktops and laptops, so it will work. The only thing you may have a problem with (which is probably why it won't work for some) is not having enough space. It takes up a lot of space on your computer, so check to see how much space it takes (on the back), and make sure you have thta amount of space left on your laptop.


Okay. i discharge. a lot. like heavy. so i'm always really nervous and think it's my period.

and i know it's normal, but do you have any suggestions about how to make it feel not so heavy? (link)
Yes, you're right, this is completely normal. It's a very unfortunate thing, that comes along with us women/girls. Luckily, there are panty liners to help us out. I won't stop your heavy amount, of course, but it will make it much more comfortable for you.

My dad is a coach for a basketball team. Well my dad and my ex's dad coach together. Well I think he likes me but I dont know. Today at lunch he came up to me and said something and i replied well you don't love me. He then said yes i do thats why i come to basketball practice and the games. Does that mean he likes me or is that just a response? Please help, anything and everything is appreciated!!! (link)
Yes, I'm positive that means he likes you. Otherwise, he would never have said that, in my opinion. He's trying to tell you that he likes you, by going to the games to see you (assuming you play, or you watch.)


My boyfriend was over today, and he fingered me. It hurt, but felt good at the same time. He dropped me off at my house at like 1 because he had a thing to go to with his family. I went to the bathroom, and I was bleeding. I knew he broke my hymen, so I just went about my day. Well, it's well over 10 hours later, and I'm still bleeding. I know it's not my period because my period shouldn't be here for another 10-14 days, and I don't have any cramps. So, how long am I gonna bleed for? Because I'm sick of going to the bathroom & finding blood. Ugh. (link)
Honestly, I don't think you have anything to worry about right now. Being as that was the first day, it's normal. However, if this continues through the next few days and the blood is literally pouring out of you, I recommend seeing a doctor about it.


It seems like all fashion models are tall, and when watching Americas Next Top Model on tv, there was this one girl (bre i think) and they said she was like almost too short to be a model, and she wasnt even that short! I'm only 13/f right now, but when i grow older i want to try to be a model, but i'm extremely short, so i was wondering if there is any modeling careers out there that let shorter people model (right now i'm only like almost five foot) (link)
Yes, you can do petite modeling. Many agencies offer this type of modeling, like Ford Models. And you're only thirteen, so you will probably grow more. I'm only a year older than you, and I've grown taller since I was thirteen. I was 5'7" when I was thirteen (still considered tall, in my opinion, the same height as Bre) and now I'm almost 5'9" So really, you have nothing to worry about your height. Because there is petite modeling, commercial modeling, hair modeling, hand/foot modeling, etc. Good luck! :)


Hey is there a site where I can check out to keep me up to date on like what's currently going on like what's happening with Bush and Iraq. I don't watch T.V and I don't really know what's really going I don't even know what's hip but I don't care. I guess you can say I've been living under a rock it's just that stuff like this concerns me and I want to know some info. (link)
I too, do not get to watch enough tv to keep up to date all of the time, so I just log onto www.cnn.com And you can find any and all info on Bush and Iraq. Plus, you can sign up for CNN Alerts, and everytime something is going on you will be notified. :)


okay my myspace won't change my top friends.

when i change the order & click save top friends.. it doesn't work. like it just stays the same & you can't change it. why is it doing this & how do i fix it? (link)
I would message Tom, and ask him about it. I'm sure he can fix it for you. www.myspace.com/tom

I had the same problem with my song, you'll have to add a new song to get it to work. Sorry!


I had a myspace background and i never had a problem with it now all of a sudden there is a photobucket sign where my background used to be that says "bandwith exceeded". can anyone help me with this? how can i get my background back??

thanks soooo much anyone who can help me.

xx (link)
I have had this problem on multiple occasions, so I know exactly how you feel. And sadly, you'll have to get a new background. It's not your fault, whoever made this background has exceeded the bandwith for that particular background. So therefore, it will not work. Sorry!


how can i put icons in my myspace profile? maybe even pictures? I've seen a few people do it.

thank you (link)
You can do this by logging into your Myspace account, and clicking on "Add/Edit Pictures." You'll see an upload botton, and a submit bottom. First, upload the pic/icon and then submit. And it automatically is on your profile. Of course, you will have to choose your default if you add more than one. But there is an "Add as Default" button below each picture, so that should be easy to do.


I posted questions in December and have received answers however, since I have not received any more answers should I keep the questions on this site or delete them. (link)
My advice is to definitely keep them. I've read on Advicenators, that it's best to keep your questions, rather than deleting them. Because they could be used for future reference, and someone may want to answer it in the future.


im trying to log onto myspace and it wont let me. like id go to my internet and type in www.myspace.com except it takes forever to load the page and before it actually loads, it says the page cannot be found. its been doing it for about a week..how do i fix it? (it doesnt work on both my computers or my laptop) (link)
There could be multiple reasons, there is a Myspace virus going around that could be causing you this problem. Or it could be your computer acting up, if this happens to you on any other website. I would message Tom the head of Myspace, and let him know about the problem. I'm sure he can do something about this. Here's the link to his page -- http://www.myspace.com/tom

Good luck!


When you brush your teeth should you use warm, hot, or cold water?
I know thats dumb but does it make a difference (link)
No, it's not dumb at all. Warm or hot water is best, because warm/hot water kill all bacteria on your toothbrush.


What's the difference between a hotel, a motel, and an inn? (link)
A hotel is a commercial establishment offering lodging to travelers and sometimes to permanent residents, and often having restaurants, meeting rooms, stores, etc., that are available to the general public.

A motel is a hotel providing travelers with lodging and free parking facilities, typically a roadside hotel having rooms adjacent to an outside parking area or an urban hotel offering parking within the building.

An inn is a commercial establishment that provides lodging, food, etc., for the public, esp. travelers; small hotel.
