If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

if you have sex with someone bigger then your boyfriend.... can they tell?

i have been with this guy for 3 years and made a drunk mistake with someone else who was alot bigger then my boyfriend. so he fits perfectly inside me...can he tell i cheated on him the next time we have sex?

i heard you could.

No. The only thing that will alter it is child birth, not a penis.

honestly, if a guys feeling you up, what would he think if your boobs are two different sizes. for me, ones like a small A and the other is a B . i know he should only care about your personality blahblahblah but i was just wondering the real truth about whether hell be freaked out or not, thanks!

Like he's going to notice, he'll be too happy knowing he's in the presence of boobs! ;)

Seriously, don't worry about it. You should only be engaging in things like that with boys you trust/love, etc, so they will obviously love you for who you are, not because your boobs are a bit different.

Also, just to make you feel better.. NO ONE has perfect boobs, unless they're FAKE. Just like you will always have one foot bigger than the other and other various body parts. It's normal and the size isn't even bad. If it was very drastic (blatantly obvious and much more than your 1 cup size difference), corrective surgery could be an option, but you just need to learn to love yourself the way you are, it's normal. :)

Hi latly me and my bestfriend havnt been talking that much i feel like we are drifting apart how can i make things better?
thanks s

You simply talk to him about it, so you can both find ways to solve the problem.
Could be just the fact things are a bit "routine" and need spicing up a little bit. Communicate with him, let him know how you feel - he might feel the same way.
Then, make plans together, so you can both have a bit of fun. You don't need to spend a lot of money, just see each other (movie, shopping, bake cakes/cook, bowling, picnic, walks, bike rides, anything!)
Good luck.

Can someone anyone tell me what sex is like. Cause I have had a lot of offers but I never done it and I wanna know what it is like.

Depends on a few things..
For example:
When you are 100% ready
When you feel like doing it
Who you're doing it with
How experienced you are
etc.

but let me tell you, it feels great when you do it with someone you love and trust.. and when you know what works for each other. It's hard to explain (plus being graphic on here isn't allowed!) so until you experience it with someone you love, trust and when you're ready, you won't understand.
It goes beyond making each other physically feel good - there's so many emotions and chemistry racing around mentally, too. :)

im 15/f.
And i had sex maybe 3-4 days after my period. It was not protected, and he came in me. He didnt pull out fast, but, he did pull out. I have been feeling sick. Its been a week today since we had sex. And i cant take an acurate pregnancy test tell the 23rd. Is there a good chance im pregnant?
thanks in advance.

Yes, there's a good chance.
He CAME in you.. even if he did pull out in time, have you ever heard of pre cum? It can contain sperm, too.
If you don't want the worry, just use a condom. Something SO simple, yet rarely used. I just don't get it..

can a 15yr old girl masturbate?

If she wants to... there's no set age.

Hi I would like to know how i can PLEASE my girlfriend WITHOUT sex. I have never dated before and need help. Thank you.

It doesn't matter you've never dated before, you'll soon feel comfortable with it.
You need to realize there's a million and one ways to please someone without sex.
Just go on dates to places you both enjoy, for example, cinema, gigs, go for a walk, go out to eat, watch a movie at each others houses, bake cakes, etc. There's no harm in cuddles and kisses with your partner, so indulge in them as much as you like if you're ready, they will make you both feel special. Do sweet things for her, you don't need to spend a tonne of money by the way, it's the little things that count. Tell her the things she wants to hear, surprise her..
As time passes, you'll both feel comfortable to do other things and let your relationship progress. It comes naturally, meaning there's no need to rush.

Good luck with your girlfriend. :)

i am engaged to my fiancee and weve been together for 1 1/2 years almost. He recently went to jail and all our converstaions have been good up until now and hes accusing me of cheating on him and leting guys in the car and im telling him theres nobody else i want but him and i love him and he still doesnt believe that im not cheating on him and its just hurting me more cause he doesnt believe or tust me. what should i do?

He's locked up, no doubt feeling sorry for himself and doesn't feel safe knowing he can't be there for you, making him think the worst of things, ie, you cheating.
Next time you talk to him, explain how much it hurts to be accused of cheating by someone you love and make it known that you won't be able to tolerate it for much longer. He's your fiance for crying out loud - you two will be married one day and this is NO way to treat one another. Tell him to stop being jealous and focus on the future you two will have.
Hopefully things will get better for you both.

how do i become best friends with my boyfriend. im 20 yrs old and i have been in relationships before but i have never been their best friend. i believe that in a good healthy relationship you should be best friends with your significant other. my question is, how do i do that? maybe some qualities...thank you for all your help.

Don't make it all be about the relationship, just enjoy things together, have laughs, have fun.
Personally, I think the best friend qualities come within time, I know they always have for me. I find the beginnings of relationships exciting as we get to know one another, then gradually, it slows itself down, and you learn to be in each others company a lot.
Just chill out together. If your relationship is quite "physical" perhaps tone it down and just relax, watch a film, go for a drink, walks, indulge in your hobbies, etc.
Also, why don't you ask him his views on the situation and how you two can achieve it.
Good luck. :)

so im a 19/f and i was talking to this guy. it all started at school one day in the lunch line. after that i added him on faceboook. and we didn't really talk til he messaged me and asked me about my name. well we were talking & then he asked me for my number but i didn't give it to him because i didn't really know him that well. well we started talking more & then i finally gave my number to him. & we started talking on the phone and texting. but our conversations always seemed to be about sex. like how many times he masturbated, & we had phone sex. after that he blocked me on facebook & stopped texting/caling me. and then last night he texted me randomly & i didn't know who it was. he said no one, but i told him to tell me who he was and then said who didn't want to tell me because he thought i would get mad, but i wasn't. then he started telling me how he got nervous to be in a relationship with me so thats why he ignored me. & then he told me it was because he onl wanted to have sex with me. he told me how sorry he was etc. and i asked him if he still wanted to be with me & he told me he wasn't sure. and i told him that im not going to pressure him to be with me. he said he felt bad for just talking to me about sex & then ignoring me all these months. & i told him that i thought he was sweet but im not sure if talking to him still is a good idea. help?

I can safely say, you're right - talking to him isn't such a good idea.
He ignored you for months and admitted he only wanted sex. Seems to me, he's not getting it in other places and is crawling back to you.
The main factor is how you asked if he wanted to be with you and he said he wasn't sure. If a boy wants to be with you, he just knows, either a simple yes or no. The fact he said he wasn't sure is making you hold on to him in a way, to see if he will change his mind.
Do yourself a favour and move on. You can do much better and find someone who would jump at the chance of being with you.

what is chat roulette?

You chat with random people. Most people use it for video chats so you can see each other, although you don't have to do that. I've never personally been on it but I've heard from friends if you use it responsibly, it can be a laugh.

when a guy texts you saying "i think your very pretty just like your eyes" does he think my eyes are pretty and only my eyes or not my eyes?
HELP
rate 5 for all.

He's comparing how pretty you are to your eyes. In a nutshell, he's talking about both you and your eyes.

I need to break up with my long-dist relationship boyfriend. We've been dating 7 months. There's no real reason to break up except..I sent him a pic that wasn't me. I know, I know. I'm too ashamed to tell him the truth, and I'm supposed to be 'visiting' him in a month. I need to end it, what do I say? I don't want to hurt his feelings, so nothing like 'I don't love you anymore' or whatever.

I was thinking of saying something along the lines of my dad disapproves, and I have to end it with you, or he'll kick me out or something. I know, just lying more. But seriously, I just want to get out of this now, it's my own fault and I know now to never do it again. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Oh man.

I don't think you should get yourself in a bigger web of lies by saying your dad disapproves. Tell him you can't do the long distance relationship any more and you'd rather stay friends. If you're at school or something, tell him you need to focus on that more.
Either way, he will be hurt because you're breaking up with him.

May I also add if I was in your position, I'd just tell the truth.. Is the only reason you want to break up with him because you lied? Do you actually like him and want to carry it on but feel too embarrassed? If so, telling the truth may help to salvage your relationship - after all, he's grown to love your personality, seeing as you've never actually met. That way, you would have done the right thing and there's a possibility of him forgiving you and carrying on as normal.
If you just aren't feeling the relationship any more though, then by all means, break up. Just be careful with getting your self caught up in too many lies. Keep it simple.

My hair is always to greasy after flat ironing it. I use baby powder to clear it up, but that never lasts for long. I shampoo often and use a clarifying shampoo. I even clean my flat iron. But when I leave it curly, there's no grease. How to I keep my hair looking straight but fresh?

Few things to consider/try out:

*If you've been using the same shampoo for a while, switch! Your hair becomes used to the same products, therefore not working as well. Preferably use one that's for greasy/oily hair. Apply it twice instead of once, just to make sure you've got rid of any products etc the first time around.

*Don't put conditioner at the roots. Always apply it starting from mid length, to ends. Or don't use it at all.

*Don't rub your head too much when washing.

*Rinse your hair with cool water at the end of washing.

*Once you've straightened your hair, add a touch of extra hold hair spray - I find after straightening my hair and use it, it keeps it looking better for longer.

*Do you use straightening balm/serum? If you do, it may be too oily, so switch that too.

So I've just recently started wearing tampons and I need to know if it is okay to go PEE while I have a tampon in?

It's fine to urinate whilst wearing a tampon - just so you know, you don't urinate from the same hole the tampon is in. :)

I'm curious. When a man pulls out, where does he cum? For example, do you have a towel ready or does he cum on you? thank you!

It goes whereever you both want it to go.. there's no set rule.

My daughter is almost 5 years old, and is not being invited to a friends birthday party. The friend lives a few doors away from us and is one year older than our daughter. They play together often, but are not best buddies. My wife and the neighbours wife are good friends from college days and keep in touch since we live so close. The neighbours daughter is having her 6th birthday party in a couple of weeks, but her mother is not inviting our daughter - only kids from her daughter's kindergarden class. The neighbour told my wife there will be too many kids (6) at the party, but the two girls can get together at another time and do something 'special'.

My daughter will be disappointed to hear she will not be invited to the neighbour's birthday party. The reason the neighbour gave my wife about not inviting our daughter is because their house is not very big.

My daughter's birthday is coming up next month and has always had the neighbours daughter at her birthday parties

How do I tell my daughter she is not invited to her friends birthday party, when she will be inviting her friend next month?

I know it's not very nice to know your daughter won't be invited, but try not to take it personally. I know it wouldn't seem like it would hurt to invite one more person, but it seems like it's a strictly friends from school kinda thing. Rather weird, but hey, her mum must have set the rule for a reason.. The fact the 2 girls can "do something special" another time can make up for it.

Since your daughter is only 5, does she really need to know about the party? Do something on that day and if she happens to find out about it from her friend and questions it, say you were all busy that day and you couldn't make it, so they will celebrate it together another time.
If your daughter already knows about the party, like I said above, say you're busy that day etc, or she is having a party one day for her school friends and another day just for her - to make her feel a bit special.

The wonders of being 5 is she won't read in to it too deeply and when the two do get together, it will make it better.

I think my friend is bi. She has had boyfriends in the past but I feel like she is kinda interested in me. It's weird, we hang out on weekends with other girls and she's fine but in school, it's me me me. I feel her looking at me when I look somewhere else and she texts me ALL THE TIME. Not even kidding. She was in school taking a chemistry test and she texted me saying she couldn't figure out the answer. Like, seriously, your taking a test, why are you texting me? It's like she has no life that's how much she texts me. She always asks what I'm wearing the next day and I'll go to school and she'll be wearing the same thing, like jeans and plaid. It's creeping me out. What should I think about this? What do you think? thanks!

Hey, this happened to me a few years back. I know it's annoying but at the end of the day, she obviously admires you (I didn't mean that in a bisexual way.. cos that's just a ridiculous conclusion to jump to!)
If it's really bothering you, talk to her about it, there's no need to be a bitch and hurt her feelings.. just say you need a bit of space, or next time she asks what you're wearing, ask why and perhaps make a joke of it.. or say you're wearing an outfit that you know you aren't going to wear.. then if she asks just say you changed your mind.
If she doesn't get the hint, how about you go shopping for example and point out things you think would look great on her. That's helped me in the past.
Remember though, try to feel happy about it.. you have someone "copying" you because they think you look good and value all the time spent talking to you. It's not all bad. :)

I asked about the ex bf having std question, so i have had sex with two men. and never been tested. how will i know which one had something or which one i got it from?

Assuming you did have something, you'd need to tell the guys you've slept with, so they can get tested too. If it turns out you all have the same STD, your doc may be able to find out a time you contracted it or tell you how far gone it is - this should help you pinpoint which guy you were with at the time. but if that's not available or there's no way of telling.. I'm afraid there's no way.. Unless of course all the guys didn't have it and just your ex did.. then you'd know it was him.
Did any of them have tests before sleeping with you? If there's proof of them being clean before having sex with you, it could help narrow it down.
I take it you had unprotected sex with each man - to prevent this happening in future and to stop future worry, please protect yourself and use condoms. STD's can KILL you. It's really not worth it.
Try not to worry though and don't base everything on the email you got. People are malicious and like spreading rumours and that's just what it could be.
Just get tested and if you do have something, there could be treatment and you'll be offered all the help with it.

My ex bf 21 and I 20 were together for a yr and a half on and off. we finally broke up for good. but i just found out im pregnant! yes, it is his kid. i have not dated or had sex with anyone since our breakup. how do i talk to him about it. i know i should do it in person, but ive never been pregnant so what do i say? Thank you!

Just tell it how it is.
Plain and simply, "I am pregnant and the baby is yours. We need to talk about what's going to happen."
If I were you, I'd do it in person. People can be assholes over the phone and because you are telling him BIG news, it should be in a direct way, so you can both discuss matters maturely. There's another life involved now - even though you're ex's, you need to work together.
Best of luck.
