Alright so there is this guy. He is from a different town that's about 45 mins. away from my home town. We have met once, but not formally. We are friends on Facebook. I know a girl from his town and she tells me he is really nice. I'm not really good friends with her, but we talk when we see each other and occasionally message on Facebook. The guy is really cute and I've read his Facebook. He loves a lot of things I do. He is a big Christian (which is important to me.) He seems like a really great guy. Problem is I want to get to know him more, but I have no idea how to start a convo with him. I think it might be awkward to start one on Facebook. But I'm not the type of girl to just go straight up to someone and start a convo either. Any suggestions? (link)
| |
Invite him to a group outing, the movies or a haunted house (since it's the season). From there you can just start one, because you're in line, because you're waiting for the movie to start, whatever. It doesn't seem awkward, should things go awry you have your friends handy, and it's a comfortable environment.

Can girls wear board shorts over there swimsuits in gym class? Did your school allow it? (link)
|
At my school we were allowed to wear board shorts, yes. We were also allowed to wear t-shirts and really whatever we wanted over our suits. It was great.
Not sure about your school. Ask your teacher and tell her it's your comfort level.

Ok, I've never had strep throat, I still have my tonsils. Worst case, I've had some sore throats but nothing like this. Symptoms:
-headache (not sure if it's cause by throat or just the fact that it's been quite rainy lately)
- Conjestion? I think that's what it is, I sniff a lot even though there's nothing in my nose and it's in the back of my throat so it makes a snorting noise.
-It feels like my tonsils are swollen and it hurts to swallow. I checked my throat last night and it was really red.
I went to the school nurse today and she said it didn't look like I had strep throat because my tonsils weren't swollen or red, but they were this morning. I can't go to the doctor because I don't have the time and my mom doesn't like to go to the doctor for anything small. It FEELS like my tonsils are swollen, but the nurse said they weren't. I don't know what it is? Please help! Thanks you guys!

Take your index and middle fingers of each hand and hold them just under your jaw. If it feels puffier than normal get your mom to take a flashlight and look down your throat. It you're severely swollen then you're going to have to go to the doctor to get penecillin. You have strep.
If you're okay there, then it's probably the flu, which you have to just ride out. Just take a day off school/work and cover yourself with every blanket in the house and drink hot tea and hot soup. You should be able to sweat it out by the next day and feel a ton better. You'll be hot but you'll feel better. (Yay Southern Remedies!)
Hope this helped! ^_^

Do girls think magicians are hotter than guitarist,drummers and jocks?
Some find them creepy while some find them hot.
What is your take on this?
thanks (link)
|
Magicians are awesome!
I wish my boyfriend had a cute talent like that... all he can do is whip me at Halo... and he has an unfair advantage!!!
Anyways, magicians are cute. I like them. I think I'd like them better than a musician and definately better than a jock. I hate jocks. They irritate me.

there's this guy i've known for 3 years, and i've always saw him as a best friend but he's always liked me... well not really, he goes to one girl and then if they leave him he comes back to liking me basically... later on.. he stopped talking to me because he got tired of me getting a new boyfriend, and he thinks that he's about to be my boyfriend and then i get new guy. i don't understand what makes him think like that... i've always seen him as a best friend, so he walked away from me the second time. i don't want to keep on trying to get him back if he keep walking away from me. the thing that upsets me is that every single girl that has walked away from him, i was there.. but this time, he walked away from me. he said he didn't want to be my friend anymore and that he didn't need me in his life. i can't control my feelings, plus because the time he had ignored me i liked this guy .. who is now my boyfriend since yesterday, because he finally asked me out. what am i supposed to do?! do i just let it go or something? (link)
|
It sounds to me like he can't get past his feelings for you. That's a hard thing, I don't blame him, but if he's going to act childish about it, let it go. You've made it clear that you don't want to date him and he needs to accept that.
It may hurt to cut him loose like that, but sometimes that's what you have to do. He'll come back, and you can take him back if you want, but I wouldn't want that kind of static in my life.

If you are sick and you drink noting but water how much weight will you lose and will you gain it all back? (link)
|
It depends on what you have. If you have the flu you aren't going to lose much. If you have, say, smallpox you're gonna lose a lot. Assuming you survive something awful, like smallpox, you will probably gain most of it back.
This is a very dangerous way to try and lose weight, by the way.

my boyfriend/exboyfriend... it's complicated. he cheated, lied, and lied some more. he broke up with me for "stressing him out". he's asked to get back together many times and he asked today and i decided to say yes. now i think i'm going nutso. a girl commented him on myspace saying hi stalker yesterday and today after he got home he went online and commented her saying hi and she commented back. he didn't call me then is sleeping now i guess. i told him i don't feel very important to him in a voicemail and that today is a perfect example of the things he does that make me feel that way. i don't want to be nutso. i want to not care. i am nutso for taking him back. how do i stop being nutso? i feel dying whenever something goes wrong with me and him and think about cutting myself. i don't want to do that. i need help. i don't want to dig a deeper whole and have my parents find out so i can't talk to couselors at school. (link)
|
Oh honey... I've been there... I've been there a lot. What I can honestly say, from experience, is "ONCE A CHEATER, ALWAYS A CHEATER" at least with you.
I've been cheated on, and it repeated... I've cheated, and that repeated. I don't what it is but once people know you'll take them back after they cheat, they'll keep doing it.
I say you drop the man before he causes you more heartache. It's just human nature, I guess. There are more men out there for you.

there's this boy i like but i don't know if he like me and my friend keeps telling him that i'm stalking him but i'm really not i just know his class schedule and his locker and his bus number.How do i get him to like me and stop her from calling me a stalker?(f/13) (link)
|
Well... you sound like a stalker with all you know about him... but I've been there, I know there can be mitigating circumstances.
For your friend, tell her that every time she says you're a stalker that you will hit her. In the back of the head. Really hard. EVERY time she says it. It's basic Positive Punishment. If she gets mad, just tell her that you warned her and that you're not kidding. She'll figure it out...
For the guy. Well... just concentrate on being his friend, at first. Once you have a grasp on what he likes and who he is, if you still like him ask him to a movie or something. Then ask him out again, and again. If he keeps going then ask him to be your boyfriend. If not, at least you tried.
Seriously though, pummel your friend.
|
There's a guy who kind of like, and we had a thing in the past, and now it's just completely fucked up.
But that's not the point.
I always feel so alone, and this feeling bothers me so much.
I'm with friends a lot, so I'm not a loner, but it's more like the company of a boyfriend.
How can I ease this feeling? It's getting me down :( (link)
|
Friends can't always fill the void that a relationship can, and I know that; I've been there.
I could tell you to go out and get yourself a boyfriend, but I know it's not that easy and the guys that come easy aren't the ones you want.
I could tell you that you need to love yourself and that space will go away, but I know that's not true.
So what can I tell you that will help? Talk to someone. Talk to your friends about it, go see a counselor or a shrink; talk to your mom about it over breakfast. The more you talk about it, the more it tends to fade. I know first hand. I chose a shrink, but you don't have to. Just talk. Write it down too, just get it out of yourself so it can't fester anymore, and you'll notice it less and less, because it'll start to go away.

Ok so as all my previous questions have said me and my best friend were super close for months. She met this 20 year old guy, and he found out that me and my best friend dated for 7 months one of those months being after they started dating and now he doesnt want us to be friends anymore (at least that's how it seems) Most teenage girls go through the experimentation stage right? I mean ever since her and i dated the break up sucked and i can't get over it. But since she got with this guy she acts like she doesnt care about me anymore. She told me no matter what she'd always love me but lately she puts me down so much. it isnt just her it's everyone i know and im getting to the point where i want to hurt myself. It kills when the one person who used to lift your spirits up is now the one bringing you down. What do I do. I will never be able to live without her in my life. But he and her boyfriend are the ones that make me feel the worst all the time. Help if you can. (link)
|
There's no easy answer... I wish there was.
I never dated my best friend, but we had a couple hookups and one day I woke up knowing that I was in love with her... That's not all that weird for me, being bi, but she's super straight and her family's mormon so I never said anything.
Her boyfriend doesn't like me either...
From what I've gone through, too much to list here, you might just have to cut your friend loose. I know I had to, and it hurt and for a while I thought I would die from missing her. What they say is true, though. God never closes a door without opening a window.
I cut her loose and someone else stepped into her place. I'm okay without her in my life. We still see each other from time to time, but she's no longer a constant.
It's hard but you'll live, I did.

ok so stupid Q here:::
when a docter or nurce asks you about your last period do you say when it started or when it ended?
and for ppl on friendfertilit.com::
do you mark every day your on it?(have the red dot on the day)
or just the frist day or the last day?
thanx you for you time (link)
| |
I always just give them the span... like "last week" or "about a month ago" and they seem okay with that.

Okay so to explain my situation; I like this guy, alot and he likes me too. He just came out of a 3 year relationship, the day before we met. we've become very close, perhaps best friends with some extent of physicaly contact. We were discussing our situation yesterday where I explained to him that I liked him and I knew he wasn't ready for another relationship but I was ready to wait. He came back with a comment on how he felt special that he was my first kiss and that if I wanted him to be another first (hint hint) then all I needed to do was ask. Okay so he JUST tells me he doesn't want to ruch into anything yet he offers me to have sex with him, my first time. I'm so confused! I know he was nice about it and said he didn't want to push anything onto me he just wanted to be open bout the idea, but this is serious. I obviously said no, but that doesn't change the fact that it was said. I don't know what to do. I like him, buut..
All this first time nonesense could be confusing for you guys, I am 18 by the way, just to clear up the possibility of me being a young teen. (link)
|
It sounds like he has a big physical attraction to you, which is good. The first time sex proposition is common in young men. Nothing is tighter than a virgin, and that's just fact. It's very typical for them to want to be your first for that alone.
You said no, and that's very good. I agree with that reaction, but don't kick him to the curb for that. He really can't help it. So long as he's not pushing you for it, he sounds like a nice guy. Worth waiting for, as long as he'll wait for you too.
|
so my friend stabbed me with a blue pen on the top of my right hand (dont ask why,we were joking around) and its a short line.
the line is red and a little bumpy at the ends.
it doesnt hurt at all though.
so what is this? pen poisoning? or just a reaction..cause i mean,it doesnt hurt at all,it just looks like an outside cut. (link)
| |
It's not ink poisoning. It's just a reaction to the ink, and it's normal. Just run some rubbing alcohol over it, because that's a damn strong antiseptic, and throw a bandaid on it. Your body just doesn't quite know what to do with the ink right now. It won't kill you though.

This is very frustrating. I might really like a guy, and whenever he starts liking me back and flirting with me and taking me out, I quickly stop liking him. And so I break it off with them, and they hate me because they felt I led them on, but those "dislike" feelings happen so quickly and out of the blue, I really don't mean to lead them on.
This happens to me EVERY single time. I think it might be because I was completely in love with a guy for a few years, and I always wish it was him that was doting on me instead of some other guy. I don't like that guy anymore, but he was the only guy I wasn't able to get.
They all treat me like a queen (except for the guy I loved, he treated me like crap, yet I loved him for it, I was never able to figure him out). It seems that as soon as the guy makes it obvious how he feels about me, I stop liking him.
I hate this. I feel like I'm never going to get married or even find a boyfriend that I actually like and will date for a long time. (Actually a long term relationship doesn't appeal to me at all, but don't think I'm a slut, I've never gone past a peck on the lips, and that was only with one guy).
Please help me. Would it help if I just stop chasign guys for a while? And don't tell me that I should stick it out with one guy because I have done that once and I'm literally scarred for life from that experience from being in a relationship with someone I secretly despised. Also, I'm "talking" to a guy right now who is absolutely amazing, but I just stopped liking him a few days ago. I'd rather just be friends. We're going out this Friday night, should I go with him anyway but make it clear that we are only going as friends, or should I just not go at all (the reason he's taking me out is because I have been giving him rides from school, so he said he owed me. Should I stop giving him rides as well?)
Sorry there are so many questions, but I just feel like I'm a hopeless lost cause.

First off, go with this guy! Tell him it's just a friend thing, but go. There's no reason to cut yourself off from nice people just because you're having some problems right now.
Now, I think you're right. You should just stop chasing guys for a while. Let someone chase you and just chill. When someone is right, you'll know.
This sort of thing happens to lots of people. Sometimes we just know what we want and can't find it in the people we go after. I went through guys like kleenex for a while. Then one day I just couldn't anymore. I was so sick of having to explain to these guys that they weren't what I wanted. That was when my boyfriend found me. We've been together for two years, and he's perfect. I put him through hell and he still keeps coming back.
Just take some time. Life happens at its own pace.

When i want to concentrate, i find that my mind is thinking of too many things at once. I find myself thinking of school, friends, boys, etc. all at one time!
This is so hard when i want to study but all this stuff comes to my head! i feel like i have no control over my own mind!
what can i do to only concentrate on ONE thing?
any techniques and symptoms to why i cant concentrate on just one thing?!
THANKS (link)

A lot of mood disorders have racing thoughts as a symptom, but unless you're having volatile moods I wouldn't worry about that. If you are, see a shrink.
You should relax though. Make some hot tea and focus on the tea, then put on some relaxing music (whatever you find relaxing). Which your brain focusing on tea and music you're more likely to be able to study. If that doesn't work well enough, meditate. It's very new-age, I know but meditation is a great way to zero out those thoughts. Just sit and focus on breathing and relaxing and what color is behind our eyelids.
There are also a few low-dose medications that your doctor can prescribe you to help calm those thoughts. Very low doses of Xanax, for instance. I'm on that right now. Works great, but it depends, of course, on medical history as to whether they will actually give it to you.
Try the tea and meditation first.

I have never acted this way before but suddenly i am...I am always angry and dont know why...I already have my period this month so that cant be it...My Mom ask me whats wrong and she thinks i am lying to her when i say nothing but i really dont know what is wrong someone please explain what is going on with me!

Oooh... irritable, unexplainable anger. I remember that.
Teen angst is a good cause. Thyroid problems can do it. You could just be naturally irritable.
If you don't think it's that, though do you have these symptoms too?
* Feel unusually great
He or she may feel in possession of special qualities or abilities, extra power, importance, knowledge or ability.
* Sleep a lot less
He or she may feel that “sleep is a waste of time,” feel rested after a few hours or just not feel tired at all.
* Talk too much
He or she may feel pressured to get out thoughts, to talk faster or more loudly than usual.
* Mix up their thoughts
He or she may have thoughts coming so fast that it’s hard to keep ideas straight.
* Be distracted easily
His or her attention may be drawn to little, unimportant things.
* Set new goals
He or she may launch into several new projects.
* Take risks and go to extremes
He or she may do things that could be considered “risky” or unwise. Examples include running up credit card debt, making gambling bets, and even having casual sex with strangers.
* Fidget more
He or she may be unable to sit still for very long or may pace.
* Feel sad
He or she may feel sad or just plain “empty” inside, be tearful or cry.
* Lose interest in things
He or she may stop doing things usually enjoyed and feel that those things just aren’t worth doing.
* Gain or lose weight
He or she may lose weight without trying or gain weight from eating more than usual.
* Have trouble sleeping
He or she may have trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep.
* Sleep too much
He or she may sleep longer than usual and not want to get out of bed in the morning.
* Appear restless or do things more slowly
He or she may appear restless or move slower than usual in doing everyday tasks.
* Feel tired
He or she may just not have the energy to go about everyday tasks.
* Feel worthlessness or guilt
He or she may feel undeserving of anything good or feel responsible for having done something terrible.
* Have trouble thinking
He or she may have problems concentrating and/or making decisions.
* Think about death
He or she may think that life is not worth living or make a plan to take his or her own life.
You could be a bipolar, like me. But that's an extreme thing. I just know that my mother would always ask me what the hell was wrong with me, and I never had an answer for her, not once, so it tripped that in my head.

i like my friend but he lives a half hour away. My bff had a bf who lived a half hour away and it got really weird and didn't work out at all. so i'm kinda scared but i like this guy and i don't know if he likes me. we don't hang out that much because will live a half hour away. but he came over a couple weeks ago and we played a little video games ate some dinner then we went to the movies togehter then out ot ice cream. i told everyoen it wasn't a date but all my friends are saying it was. i mean, he didn't make any moves and eaitehr did i. I don't know if he likes me but he told me that he had tons of fun and he wants to hang out and go to another movie with me. so next weekend we r planning on going to hte movies again but his time it will be a scary movie..he want to see saw 5 and i do't like scary movies..cause i'm a big scardy cat but i dont nkow what to do. i really like him but i dont' know what to do or if he likes me! i'm kinda confused...so if anyone can hlep me i would appreciate it very much! thx. (link)

My ex and lived about half an hour away. It was alright. It isn't what I would like best, and I don't think anyone does, but it can work if you work at it.
He may just like your company. That happens. You'll have to wait to see how the chemistry feels between you two. Don't listen to your friends, they're dumb. Not everything is a date. to prove it, next time your friends go out on a girl-girl or boy-boy outing call it a date. ^_^ Makes people SO mad.
If you don't like scary movies... go anyways. It's fun to cling to people. The Saw movies aren't really scary anyways, just a little gross.

I wanna be something cool for halloween. I have no idea whatsoever. They have to be decent and all but also fun. I hate clowns so nothing with them please. Thanks so much! (link)

Be a hot robot. Make your own outfit out of tinfoil and duct tape (helps hold it together). It can be as sexy or decent as you choose. Take little time, and it's fun.

me and my boyfriend have been together for 2 and a half years and i am 17 and i love him to death but, he gets so mad all the time over little things and i dont know what to do everytime i try and talk to him he gets mad and thinks im trying to start an arguement what do i do? (link)
|
The simple answer is stop talking to him, but that won't work, will it?
So the complex answer is figure out why he's so defensive. You could ask, but chances are he'd be offended by the accusation.
Think really hard about what the little things have in common, how they all relate, and I'll bet there's an underlying theme.
My boyfriend figured this out when I was doing what your man is doing right now. He finally just confronted me about the underlying theme and I'm not angry anymore.
If you can't find a theme, I don't know... I'd like to say he probably needs to see a shrink, but I think everyone benefits from that (lord knows I did). That may be the part where you'll just have to ask and deal with what happens. (wow, this paragraph was NOT helpful-stick with the 1st 4 paragraphs instead)
