We've started talking/become friends since the last couple of months. We go home on the same school bus and recently hes started to walk me home everyday, and my house is a couple of streets away from his and further from the bus stop, but he takes me to my house anyways.
I want to get over him because of, well, him. He's really nice when it's just us 2 but around his friends at school, hes a complete douche and sometimes he ignores me. My friends don't know the 'him' without his friends, so they think that he's a bad influence on me and there's times that part of me actually agrees with them.
I really do like him, and everytime we walk home and talk, I fall for him just that little bit more. But I know it won't happen if the him at school doesn't change.
ANY advice on how to get over him, and forget about him, is appreciated. Thanks! (link)

Well, getting over him is not your only option: you could speak to him when it's just the two of you, and explain how you don't like his behavior when he is around his friends.
But if you do want to get over him, it will be very hard if you keep seeing him. You can decline his offers to walk you home, and you really just need to keep yourself busy and try and meet someone else.
Walk home yourself, or find a friend who lives nearby, or just walk with your existing friends. When you feel yourself thinking about him, do something else. Read a book, study, watch tv, listen to music, cook, etc etc.
That's the only real way of getting over someone: keeping yourself busy, and meeting new friends and people.
But like I said, the best option really would be to speak to him about you feel.
Good luck :)

Hey! Whenever I type in a password to log into website accounts, my browser asks me if it should save the password. I forget certain passwords a lot so I wonder can I see the saved passwords? If yes, where? Also, what's the point of saving passwords, and can others see them and log into my accounts? (link)
|
To see saved passwords, it depends on the browser you use. Just google "how to see saved passwords *browser name* "
It varies depending on the browser you use, and so it is worth checking before you save.
What is the point of saving passwords? Well, I'm the only person who uses my laptop, and so instead of typing my password in every time I want to log into a site like Advicenators, I have chrome save my password to save time.
Other people will be able to log in to your accounts if they use your computer, because they will not have to type in the password: it will already be there. They will not be able to see them, because they will be encrypted i.e. show as XXXXXXXXXX or a series of dots in most cases.
But for example, if you decide to save your password for Advicenators, then it will ONLY save your password for Advicenators, not for other stuff.
When the internet first started, people used to say not to write your passwords down, because they mistook the types of thieves that would steal your details. You could write your passwords down somewhere secret, and keep them hidden i.e. not on your computer. If someone burgles your house, they aren't going to try and look for your passwords on a small piece of paper. Just like if someone tried to steal your credit card details, they won't come to your house and steal your TV too.
I.E. it's okay to write your passwords down and keep them somewhere private and secret.
Hope I helped :)

So i was surfing on the interwebs.(Just doing my thing.) And i came across an add of a girl. Well looking at the short (maybe two-three seconds of video) I swear it is on of my friends girlfriendand it if for a webcamming site. (Now i knew she used to get on those sites and do things but i didn't think she did anymore) My question is, is there a way that i can find out for sure that is it her and after doing so should i tell my friend? I really don't know what to do here... And thanks for ll the advice(: (link)
|
There is no way of telling whether it is 'for sure' her. Unless that is, you know her username on this website. Then just check who uploaded it by clicking the video, and you will see whether it was her.
Apart from that, you could ask her directly.
And you also say that you knew she used to use these sites: how do you know it's not an old video? Maybe you just stumbled across it now, or maybe someone else uploaded it again.
If you want a subtle way of telling him, just casually browse the website when he is around, and 'accidently' come across this website.
But really, it's your call.

ok so for colledge i really want to go to edinbourgh university in scottland. (i live in the us. but my grandparents are from scottland)so i have three questions:
1. what should i study most to get in to the university?
2.is scottland economicly good?
3. i think my mom would miss me but i really want to go what should I say to her? (link)

I'm from the south of the border to Scotland, but we have a similar education system.
It depends on what you want to study. Check the course's website out, and check their entry requirements. Contact them if you are still unsure. Like I said, it depends really on the exact course you want to study. Good options are always classic subjects, i.e. Mathematics, English literature, Sciences, History, Geography, and Languages. Good grades in these types of subjects can be beneficial for any university.
Scotland's economy is only as good as the UKs as a whole, and the UKs economy is not good. Unemployment is high, inflation is only just coming down, demand is low, and the deficit and debt is high. Scotland is more focused on the public sector, which is facing cuts at the moment. Dependent on the figures you look at, the rest of the UK relies on England, and more specifically the South-East which is the economic powerhouse of the country.
There many also be a possibility of Scotland becoming independent from the rest of the United Kingdom in the future- around 2014 - when there will be a referendum in Scotland.
Of course your mother will miss you: it happens to everyone. If this is something that you really want to do, then take a trip to Scotland with your mother, and check it out. Explain that this is what you really want to do with your future, and that going will be a good opportunity to check it out. Also assure her that you won't be alone, because where I live (Middle of England), there is a high American, Chinese, and Indian university population: people in the same situation as you.
Good luck. Feel free to inbox if you need more advice.

I am 17, female, moving into college next month. My mom made me sign a paper to disclose information at school. Grades and medical records and if I get in trouble at parties or something of the sort. I don't really want her to know everything like that but I couldn't say no because she'd be pissed. My question is, if I were to start birth control or anything, will my mother know about that? Because when I went to orientation, we broke up into groups and my facilitator said that those things are confidential but I don't know if that holds true once I signed that paper. Please no judging and thanks for your time. (link)
|
I really doubt they will tell her. You could ask your college though. I've never heard of this situation, but you could also ask your college to nullify that, and not to give out any information under any circumstances. You are an adult (nearly), and shouldn't have you disclose all that information with your mother. It's just not right for her to do that.
And anyway, an adult can't make a contract with a minor (you). It can not stand, because the minor is unable to make a proper decision.
I doubt you will get a proper and correct answer to this question on here, because this is not normal behavior (as far as I know), and so it is best to contact the college. They will help you out.

I have only met my girlfriend and I really like her how do I know if she likes me back? (link)
|
Well, why would she be your girlfriend if she doesn't like you?
I don't really understand your question: how have you only just met your girlfriend?
If she doesn't like you, she shouldn't be your girlfriend. If she's with you just to kill time, then it's not worth being with her.
But like I said, I don't understand your question. Maybe you can re-post with more details.

So.. two months ago almost three, my bf and i were having sex, and he realized the condom broke about Two minutes before he was done, and he pulled out but cummed on my inner thigh and around my hole..(vulva i think) and im scared i might be pregnant.. (link)
|
If he just came on your inner thigh, and around your vagina, then no, you can't become pregnant.
If he came INSIDE of you, then yes, obviously you can.
A test will show the results a couple weeks after, and so being 3 months after, you should take a few tests. Buy the best ones you can afford, and buy a few to be sure.

Hello,
I have an iPod and my Headphones keep constantly shorting out, and I somehow keep hearing keeps getting' better by Christina Aguilara differently. When she says something supposed to sound electronic I hear only her singing with it plugged in to my iPod dock and with and without earphones differently with Christina sounding normally, and I had my ears checked and the doctor says I'm fine. So could my earphone jack in my iPod be messed up?? (link)
|
You can easily check this by toggling the headphone jack while it is in your ipod. Just move it around while you have your headphones in, in circular motions. If the sound starts to change, then it is a problem with either the ipod, or the headphones.
Try out a pair of headphones that work fine in your ipod, or try your headphones in another device to rule it out.
I have the same problem: it turns out it was my ipod: something is loose. It's quite old now, and so not worth repairing.
You could also go into your local Apple shop if you have one. They checked mine for water damage and so on to rule that all out.
Hope I helped :)

How to keep vaginal area clean (link)
|
Shower everyday, atleast once. Twice or more if you get particularly sweaty or are living in warm or humid areas. Using unscented soaps can prevent infections. But soap and hot water, with gentle scrubbing around the area (like any body part) are best.
Some find it beneficial to shave, or wax as hair can create warmth, hold moisture and provide a place for bacteria to multiply.

My boyfriend promest me that he will engage to me a romantic engagement on the weekend of his 16th birthday and our plan is to get married on my 19th birthday. . . We both 15 now and he's birthday is in november which I think is a good time to think about it through. I love him, we never fight and we've been together for 3 years now and I don't mind at all spending the rest of my life with him! Do you think I'm doing the right thing? Even that I'm pregnant with his child and we planning on keeping it and every night. He tells me to tell little one that daddy loves him so so so much. . . I just thought I'd give that little detail aswell :) so do you think I'm doing the right thing?
(link)
|
Not really.
You're already pregnant at 15, and so there is really no bigger commitment you can make with each other. If if you do not marry, you will still be bound by this child for at least 18 years.
In regards to marriage, 19 is way too young to be married. 15 is even younger to be thinking about engagement. The reason why everything is so fine, dandy, and romantic now, is because you are young and the relationship is still in the 'honeymoon period'. You haven't lived together, you do not have jobs, you don't pay bills, etc. When the harshness of reality hits, you may well realise that it won't work. This is why people wait until they are much older, and then they move in together to test the waters. If it all goes well, a few years later they get engaged. Then, if that goes well, they get married. And hopefully then, they live happily. But that rarely happens, because now, 50% of marriages end in divorce.
What I am trying to say is, you are at a period where any relationship will seem perfect. You need to know someone for a long, long time in all sorts of situations. 15 year olds are not capable of this.
I know it is not what you asked, but could you not think about adoption? How do you plan on caring for this child? You're too young to get a job. How will you get a job if you leave school? Who will look after your child when you are both working 20 hours a day just to pay the rent? If you give the child for adoption, at least you can get your education, work, enjoy your childhood, and then take the road that will show you if you two can survive the real world, and not be naive about the future.
Good luck, you're going to need it.

I'm going to leave for camp tomorrow and I need a small thing of conditioner. The problem is, the only one I could find was color shield by fructis, which is for people who have colored their hair in some way. I haven't, but would it be okay if I used it? (link)
|
I can't see why not: these types of conditioners prevent colour from running because normal conditioner is quite heavy.
So yes, colour shield conditioner will be okay.

My friend said they do something weird when you feed them a mint mentos what would happen (link)
|
I have never heard of such an experiment. We all know that diet coke + mentos = fizzy explosion.
I wouldn't give a bass (or any animal) mentos though. Just ask your friend what they were talking about.

|
I only black out in the shower and it only happens every once in a while. Is there something wrong with me? (link)

This is obviously something serious.
Se a doctor as soon as possible, as a matter of urgency.

[By the way, sorry this is so long. I'd greatly appreciate if you could give your advice, though]
My family moved to America in 2000, when I was 6, and even though I'm now 18, I still occasionally find myself missing living in England. My parents are Cameroonian, and when I was 5 I lived in Cameroon for 1 year, but I don't find myself missing Cameroon as much, even though I had a very good time there, too. I guess it might be because my parents are Cameroonian, as well as my extended family, so that part of me never left.
I still have a diary from when I was six, and I started feeling homesick (over London and Coventry) 2 weeks after we started living in New Jersey (USA). I used to get really homesick when I was younger, especially when I heard british music, and I recall trying to distance myself from the whole "American stereotype", but ultimately, as years went on, America had more and more of an influence on me. Now that I think about it, I found myself also distancing myself from African-American stereotypes, that are often negative, because I didn't see myself that way, even though most people would just see me and assume I'm just like any other black American, who has black American ancestry, and etc, because of my skin tone. I also lost my accent down the line, and my parents also did (only my dad still sometimes sounds British, because he lived there the longest, for about 20 years), which makes people always surprised and doubtful when I say I have both British and American nationality (became a dual citizen). I have no idea what I sound like to other people, though.. I don't think I really sound like anything distinct
Anyways, so, at one point, starting from when I was 15, I started really trying to connect with British things again, since I hadn't visited there since I was 8 (2002), and it's like, I wanted to still keep that part of me alive. So I'd watch a bunch of British shows, listen to a lot of British music, and emulate British fashion. At the time, it was just subconscious, though, and it's only now that I'm really realizing I was doing that. It's just that I felt like an outsider here in America so I was trying to cling to a time when I was really happy in England. I don't know whether it's because I was a little kid or because at that time my family was traveling more frequently, but I truly haven't been as happy as I was then, and that really pains me. When I look back to then, it's like that part of my life was in a different world. I feel like things became bad a few years after moving to America, but idk if it's just because I was getting older and that was inevitable.
But yeah, after living in multiple places (my family then moved from New Jersey to Texas 2 years ago and it's even worse here than in NJ!), I love to travel, but my heart still belongs in England. When I think about where I want to live in the future, all paths ultimately lead to the goal of once more living and working in London. That motivates me to work hard here in America, so I can get hired there and live the life I want to live. I don't know if it's pathetic or what. I know there's no perfect place, but it's just perfect to me. It has a lot of things I want out of a city! My parents moved to England, and then America, for a "better life", and we're upper middle class so I feel guilty over complaining about some things, but this is just how I feel.
I feel like I just want to go somewhere and truly be able to call the place home and everything. And again, with all the news about the Olympics, I just feel really crushed inside, and plan on not watching tv for the whole event, to avoid being reminded of living there. I tell my parents how I feel, and how I want to visit old friends in England, but they don't fully understand how I feel, since England is not their original country. They feel more sentimentally about Cameroon, though, but since we have Cameroonian culture, it's different.
And sometimes I even feel it's ironic for me to feel this passionate about London, and England in general, when it was one of the countries that colonized Africa in the past, and the majority of British people are white. I don't know if that's important, and due to living in various places, I'm very nonjudgmental and accepting of everyone, but I feel sort of insecure about that, too, and how others would judge me. I mean, it would be a lie if I were to only see myself as Cameroonian when I only lived there for one year. But it's the same with America and the UK. I'm a combination of things. I don't know, it's just weird. It's so awkward when someone asks me where I'm from, because I don't even know how to answer. Do they want to know where my ancestry is from, or where I was born, or where I mostly lived, or currently live? That question is weird cause most people apparently only live in one area their whole life, so they can say they're a New Yorker through and through, for example. But when someone asks, how do I know if they really care to know the story of how I moved around, or just want a short and sweet, casual answer (even though I don't feel like one place truly describes me)? Ugh. I'M JUST A CITIZEN OF EARTH.
Sorry that this was so long and all over the place, I just needed to get this off my chest. Especially in a place like Texas, where people are shocked that some black people even live in England, I just feel like a loner a lot of the time. I try to connect with other third culture kids, who are usually Indian, but I don't feel like I'm as accepted as I felt in NJ, because in Texas people seem to sort of segregate themselves by ethnicity more. In NJ I had friends of many ethnicities, but here, I don't know where I fit, and why I even have to "fit" anywhere to make proper friends. any advice? i'm about to go to college next year in tx, and after high school didn't go the way I wanted, I want it to be a lot better, but I don't know what to do different. I often find it a lot easier to find other people like me online. It's funny that I often have a lot more in common with someone in a country I've never visited, than one of my next door neighbors. this is probably really pathetic, but this is just how lonely I feel right now. I wish I knew more people off the computer with similar experiences (link)

Hello, my fellow British friend! I am from England, and so I understand why your heart still lingers here. I don't want to rain on your parade, but I feel that I may.
Like I say, England, and more generally Britain is a fantastic place. But you did only live here for a very very small portion of your life. I'm not saying that you shouldn't love Britain, but all I am saying is that your memory of it may be a bit faded. You see, we (humans) tend not to remember much from 0-5 years of age. If we remember, then it is usually the big events from around that period. The chances are, that you probably only remember the good, and even those memories have changed from your many years. So what we remember is not exactly how it was when it happened.
In regards to moving to London, there should not be a problem with that. If you feel that London will be somewhere that you will be happy, then work hard, and come here to University? Or work even? Many people do. The city I come from is famous for being multicultural. It is not propaganda: you only have to walk outside to see people from USA, China, India, Africa, all living together peacefully and happily. But I will say this: don't think that moving to London will automatically make thing better. It doesn't really matter where you are from, or where you are: what matters is what you make of your time at that place. So whether you are in NJ, Texas, London: it will all be the same if you are not really enjoying yourself.
Why don't you ask your family to take a trip to London? Or Coventry? You can atleast see if your theory is correct.
What my advice is, is to enjoy your life where you are. If you look back with rose-tinted glasses, then it will be a disappointment when you get where you want to. Work hard, enjoy yourself, make friends. Come to England one day, see how your memory serves you. Watch the Olympics and be proud of your past, but also appreciate your present circumstances.

13/f so I'm about 5/6 maybe 5/6 and half so I'm tall for age. My my mom is 5/8 and a half but my dad is about 5/5 maybe 5/4 so what I want to know is: will I get any taller cause my sister is 7 yrs old and is almost up to my chest and I'm worried that she'll surpass me! (silly, I know but it always bothers me when my parents say my sister's gonna be taller than me! :( ) (link)
|
You shouldn't be jealous about your sisters' height. It is something that we cannot control.
The thing with height is that we all develop at different rates. You will probably grow more: you are only 13, which is very young. You may still grow a lot. Whereas, your sister may be tall now, but she may grow only a little bit, or a lot.
It's not something we can measure or change. The best option is to wait and see what nature has in store for you.

Im 14/f Who is gay but lately I really kinda don't feel turned on by girls even when I fantasize about them. Ive never been kissed by a girl but have by a boy but didn't feel a spark, Also with boys I'm not attracted at all. Is this something lesbians go threw. Also I don't know if it's because Ive loved my BFF for two years and we just ended our friendship. Could I be asexual? or I've never kissed a girl and don't have much experience. (link)
| |
You very well could be asexual. But you are still very young. Your mind is changing, and so is your body. At 14, you cannot make such a judgement. My advice: wait and see how you feel about people. You still have a lot of growing up to do.

I am living with my old aged parents & daughter-in-law (4 yrs. old baby) my sister (baby's mother) is a employee in another place. And I have a very affection with this child from last 4 yrs. Recently I married and my wife is not interested to live with this child, and this child does not have any other source to live. Everyday my wife getting pressure on me to go outside from home. I am not ready to leave my old aged parents and young child and I feel to I am doing injustice to all my family members and decided to die............ I am requesting to all life partners please understand to your partners situation and give your support to them for resolving this type of problems..........
Thanks

Hello,
Firstly, you should not kill yourself. Even though things seems dark now, things have a way of working themselves out and getting better. So that should not be an option. You will come across many difficulties in life: the cowards way out is to run, but the proper thing to do is to face them head on. Nothing is worth dying over, as you can not turn back the clock, and you will hurt many, many people in the process.
What you need to do, is to speak to your wife. You are not unreasonable in your demands. You care for this child, and feel the need to look after your elderly parents. This is very admirable. She knew you situation before you got married, and so she cannot complain now.
Speak to her, and explain your situation. Tell her how you feel. If she cannot accept it, then it may be time to take a short break. But if she is pressuring you and making you feel like this so early on in the marriage, there is little hope for the future. It may be best to seperate, or get a divorce if verbal communication does not work.
So in short: speak to your wife. If she cannot accept what you say, it may be time to think about the future of the marriage. You should not be forced into doing anything you do not want to, but that does not mean you should take your life. Your life is a very valuable thing, and once it's gone, it's gone.
Good luck :)

we are both in our 40's. we are both married to other people but have this strong attraction to each other. Am I playing with fire? All we did so far was hug each other but express feelings towards one another. Please advise. (link)
|
Well what is the reason for hugging each other? If it is a friendly hug, then there is nothing wrong with it. Like, hugging each other when you first see each other at the start of the day.
But if you BOTH KNOW that there is something else in the hug, and are using this just to be close and not raise suspicion, then of course it is wrong.
If you have feelings for each other, then you either need to ignore them, or tell your respective spouses.
My advice: you are playing with fire. If you want to be together, end your marriages. But don't mess around. Just back off, if you want to save your marriage.
Good luck. :)

I was very active and very in shape up until three years ago. I started eating junk food and constantly drinking soda. It has gotten to the point where I will actually go up town more than once a day to buy soda and chips. My stomach has become quite round and my rear end gotten huge as have my thighs. I was wondering what I could do to stop drinking soda and eating junk food. I don't need any help with exercise, I just need to know how to stop the constant snacking. Thanks in advance! (link)
|
Snacking is usually an act of boredom, rather than an act of hunger. When you want to reach for a snack, I suggest you drink a glass of water. The reason for this, is because the human mind is not very clever in differentiating between hunger and thirst. If you still want a snack, reach for fruit. An apple is good, and they come in loads of different varieties.
And try to distract yourself. Exercise, watch TV, read a book, meet a friend, go for a walk.
If you have to snack, reach for healthy snacks. Veggie sticks with hummus, fruit, baked chips, sugar free and low calorie soda.
But in short, snacking is usually an act of boredom. Just try to keep yourself busy, and however hard it is, resist temptation.
Good luck!

is it normal to like my half sister and cousin and what should i do my cousins 14 my sister is 20 something im 11 and a tomboyish girl (link)
|
It's normal to have feelings that you are confused about. You are only 11, and your body is changing. You can not probably understand these changes properly.
It is normal to be attracted to girls. This is normal.
It is not normal however, to act on these emotions. That is wrong, because it is family. That is against the law.
You are growing. You are changing, and so you will feel confused. You will grow out of it. Try and mix with friends, and other people.
Good luck.
