about

I'm Christina, and I'm 27. I tend to be brutally honest when I give advice or an opinion. I don't tell people what they want to hear but rather what they need to hear. They don't always appreciate it at first, but I usually get a thank you in the end.

I have 15 tattoos, and 8 piercings. I'm married and just gave birth to a baby boy in May. I'm currently a SAHM so you can find me taking care of my son and binge-watching television while he naps.

advice

Okay, my name is Courtney and I was wondering if therewere any cute or creative names that I could put as my display name. i use to do you know the nicknames like court ! or courtney! courtney~ gets kinda old after awhile. so i was wondering if you could help me. (:

thanks a lot!

Courtney Couture.

what should i wear to disneyland? i want to be really cute, but also comfortable. i'm not sure if wearing sandals would be a good idea, so i also have slip on vans but those dont look that good w/ shorts or skirts, but it will be hot. HELP!

Try Bermuda shorts. They look fairly well with flats and/or slip on vans. I don't think sandls are a good idea simply because you're going to be walking for a while & they'll start to hurt your feet. Try to wear shoes that are comfortable & won't hurt you even after walking for a while.

Honestly, I have anemia so asking a question about what to wear to disneyland is bad for me seeing as how I would wear jeans & a hoodie. Haha, just wear what makes you comfortable though.

does anyone have a quote or song lyrics about a guy that you like who sort of likes you back but he likes someone else more?
thanks in advance! :)

I don't have songs or any type of lyrics, but I know of a site that has things like that:

www.wittyprofiles.com

any cheap stores that have styles like charlotte russe or forever 21 things?

Wet Seal.
Rue 21.
Kohl's.
5-7-9.
Rainbow.
DEB.
Lola/Rave.
Target.

Ok so last night my boyfriend and I were having sex.. We were going pretty hard at it then all of a sudden it's like his penis made a noise..!

The noise i guess was like.. it's hard to explain. I guess.. it popped! No oh I don't know!
It was really weird.. it happened twice!

It hurt him.. he said that his penis had bent. I asked him if he wanted to keep going and he said yes. We kept going then after we finised I asked him how his penis was.. he said it was sore.

We've been together a long time and are open about everything but I just wanted to know what it could have been..!

I know penis's can brake so I was wondering that if it did bend could we have broken it perhaps?

I don't want it to happen again because it hurts him!

Thank you!

You might have fractured it. I would stop having sex for a while & make sure he sees a doctor.

Well im going to my first job interview this sunday and im really nervous im scared if i stuff up or something any advice? anyone know what questions they'll ask its at dominos pizza by the way
thanks much

Dress nicely. Don't show cleavage or too much leg. Don't wear ripped jeans or hoodies. Just dress casual but not too formal. Maybe some nice dress pants & a polo with flats would work.

As for what you should do, just be yourself. Be nice, confident & polite. When you get there, shake their hand, tell them it's nice to meet them. Make your answers short but sweet & only keep them long if it's absolutely necessary.

They're going to ask you questions such as:

When you can start working?
What do you think you'll bring to the company?
Why do you want to work here?
Is there any special reason we should hire you?

Things like that. No need to be nervous. Good luck!

Where's the best place to find good ones?

You can usually find them on MySpace or Xanga. Just search them & you'll find a ton of users who have them.

I was wondering, What do guys look for in a friend thats a girl ? Do they like someone who is more boyish?

If I was a guy, which I'm obviously not, but if I was, I would go for a boyish type of girl. I would want her to be girly but sort of guyish too. I'd like someone to play video games & wrestle with. I don't want someone who's gonna be afraid to play sports because she's scared she'll break a nail or get dirty.

But, it all depends on the guy you talk to & deal with. Every guy likes something different so no guy will like the same thing.

I was born with a born disorder that makes me underweight. With the help of medicine that my doctor gives me, I weigh 110 pounds at 5'10".

I want to know..would girls think that I am ugly? Please be honest.

Thank you.

I used to date a boy who was around 5'4" and 98 lbs. And honestly, I think skinny guys are better. I would prefer a thin guy over a supremely muscular or chunky guy.

But it all depends on the girl because every girl is different & has a different preference.

I have two friends who have decided to become vegans/vegetarian. Please tell me if theres a difference. I've heard there is but I'm not very educated on this type of stuff. Also, thay keep telling me that being a vegetarian is way more healthy. I don't think thats true because they don't get protein from meat. I respect they're lifestyle choice and I'm not trying to say that they're wrong or anything like that but is it really healthier or what?
kthnx for the help,

Vegas do not eat anything made from an animal, nor do they wear anything made from an animal.

A vegetarian doesn't eat meat. So, there is quite the difference.

In my opinion, I think & more than likely know that be a vegetarian is more healthy. When not eating anything made from animal AT ALL, you're losing a lot more proteins & nutrients, so vegans are more unhealthy than vegetarians are.

So, there's a huge difference & if you need anymore information, never forget to try & search Google.

I really want to get a piercing. Really really badly. not like a normal piercing but a unique kind of one. Nothing big just something thats different. I've tried talking my grandma [I live with her] about it and she wont let me. I've talked about getting my eyebrow pierced and she said she didn't want me to do that. I've been thinking about a Marylyn Monroe [sry if spelled wrong] because I've been told that it would look good on me. I have two questions kind of, How can I try to convence my g-ma to let me get the piercing [knowing her, I would most likely be able to get one if it wasn't too extreme and if I had info about piercings and stuff] and what other piercings would be a good idea? [I do not want a nose or another ear piercing though]
thanks so much.

I don't know how old you are, but I do know that if you're sixteen, some places will pierce you without a parent there. All you would need is your birth certificate, your social security card & a school/state ID.

If you grandma doesn't happen to give you permission for a piercing on your face, try one on your ear. It may seem a little unoriginal because everyone has their ears pierced these days, but there are different types of ear piercings. You can get your industrial, your tragus, your conch or your cartilage. Those are all nice piercings that are fairly decent & some are even hidable.

If you're not sure how they would look, google them & see if you like them. I know that most piercing shops would charge about $30-$40 depending on the piercing, where you go & the ring you choose. Now when you do decide to get a piercing, make sure you go somewhere clean. If they do not open the package in front of you, get out of there. If the needles are laid out already or they're soaking in alcohol, leave. I don't care if they're in alcohol, those have still been previously used & it's gross to use them on someone else. Also, make sure they explain everything to you. Make sure they tell you what they're doing, how they're doing it, what it'll be like, & how to take care of it. As for if it'll hurt or not, it's different for everyone. What may tickle to me may hurt for you & vice versa.

Anyways, if you need more information on those piercings, feel free to ask me in a private question, or you can google them. Good luck.

if i got fake nails at a salon...how long would they stay on...or how long does it take for your nails to grow out untill they need to be filled

thankss

I would say that how long they stay on depends on how active you are with your hands. Do you do stuff around your house a lot, or are you kinda chilled & laid back most of the time? If you don't do much, they'll last a while. If you do lots of things with your hands, they might come off a little sooner.

You should probably get them filled every two weeks & if you're active, keep them short. They might stay on longer that way. If you're not, you can get them as long as you like, or even short if you think that looks better.

My best friend (D) told me not to long ago that she had sex when she was 12, now shes 14. I was shocked and disgusted too, because people always thought she was a whore. My other best friend told me that D told her that it happened more than once. Once in the bed, once in the shower, once on the beach, and once somewhere else, and a couple other times. This was all with her boyfriend (M). M died last year, and he was only 13. Anyway, she didn't tell me it happened all those times,because she knew I'd be even more disapointed I guess. When D told me about the first time, I told her I had lost respect for her. I think she is a whore. One time in class we were counting all the guys she dated, and I was naming random names and she would be like Yup. The total was 17. D turned 14 a few months ago. Would you agree that D is a whore? Also, would it be wrong to stop talking to her, because of that.

No, I do not agree with you. Your friend isn't a whore. The only way that she would be a whore is if she had sex with 17 guys all while dating someone else, or dated multiple people at once. If she hasn't, then she's not a whore & it's incredibly wrong of you to label her as one.

And no, you shouldn't stop talking to her because of this. So what if your friend has had sex & had boyfriends? It was bound to happen sometime so even if she did it years from now, are you still going to stop talking to her? Think about this -- how would you feel if you got drunk & your friend stopped talking to you because of it? You'd be upset, am I right? Exactly, so if it'd piss you off, don't do it to her. Your friend DOES have feelings, so that doesn't mean you can stomp all over them.

Although I'm a little disgusted with how early she's been having sex, I'm sure it doesn't take away from her personality or the person she is. If she's a nice girl & a good friend, then who gives a flying rats ass how many people she's dated? You should be a better friend to her & a little less shallow as well.

ok my friend told me today that chris brown and channing tatum are gayy is that truee?

If Chris Brown is singing about girls that he likes & wants to be with -- do you honestly need to ask if he's gay? Answers no.

As for Channing Tatum, I doubt it.

14/male
Im not sure why, but I am in this odd time where I feel like i dont care about anything. My great grandmother may be dying soon, and I may be close to losing my girlfriend, but the weird thing is, I have not been stressed. Normally I would be. I love them so much, I should be stressing but im not. This has been going on since school let out, when my best friends were fighting. Is this some awkward teen stage or something, or a result of stress?

It may be your new way of dealing with things. You don't want to deal with them, so you don't & it doesn't stress you out. However, although this may be working & you're probably thinking "No stress, I love it." I doubt that this is healthy for you.

Yeah, stress is unhealthy & annoying, but an extremely carefree person isn't good either. It's probably a stage that'll pass & I'm pretty sure you'll start caring soon. Maybe talk to a parent about this?

how can you tell if someone has low self-esteem

They are really insecure People can tell them that they're pretty/thin or handsome/nice & they disagree & argue with you until you agree with them. They usually pick on people or make others feel bad about themselves so they can feel good. They always have to better & they don't try anything new out of fear.

what are signs of teen depression/?

If you feel more than 5 of these signs for more than a two week period, you may be depressed & need to see a doctor ASAP:

Signs of depression are:
- You lose interest in things you once loved.
- You tend to want to be alone.
- You cry a lot with no reasons or causes.
- You're easily annoyed & irritated.
- You are sad and you don't know why.
- You often have thoughts of death and/or suicide.
- You have comtemplated suicide.
- Your sleeping habits change. You may sleep too much, too little or not at all.
- Your eating habits change. You may eat too much, too little or not at all.
- You lose/gain excessive amounts of weight.
- You are physically drained & tired.
- You start to hate yourself & constantly put yourself down.
- Your behavior is different.
- Your relationships are highly affected.

So like I said, if you suffer from five or more of those symptoms over a period of two weeks, then you may be depressed & you need to see a doctor.
