Q: okk soo prom is coming up in 3 weeks and i have a couple questions. even if you can only answer one, i need some help!

1.. i've been dating a very outgoing, popular guy for a few months now. of course, he can dance & shake. and yeah i cant. he asked me to prom before we even started goin out, and ive been tryin to figure out a way to dance ever since. pretty much the bumpin & grindin and all that. yeah ive done it before a couple times, but not too well, and i dont wanna look retarded! i know everyone says just move with it and dont try too hard, but it seems like no matter what, even if i just do whatever and try to move, that i'm too stiff and cant loosen up to be able to move well, or that im doin everything totally wrong. i have no rhythm! ahh help me !?

and 2.. my dress is completely open-back. im pretty thin, but i want to tone my arms/shoulders/back before then. any ideas/exercises that'll make my muscles not bulky, but defined to look better in my dress ?

thanks =].
I know that you are trying very hard to accomplish this, but the truth is, is that really you just go with the flow..you don't know what to do until your actually doing it. Don't worry. You will be just fine and you won't look like an idiot. Good luck.

Q: How do you know when to have sex? I wanted to a few days ago because I feel as though I'm ready. I'm protected and everything. I'm comfortable with it but it just seems like my boyfriend is just coming over more often because he wants to have sex when we have the chance. He says he wants to see me and if that happens, it will. I was talking to my close friend about this. She has had experience. She said the first time she had sex with her boyfriend.. he told people. How can I trust my boyfriend with this intimate moment? I gave him a blowjob months ago and his friend asked him if I ever gave him one.. He answered.. Even after I told him just to keep these things between us. He pretty much let it slip again. But at least he's being honest with me. I was fine with it because it's just a bj. But I can't seem to trust him now. I don't think he wants to come over to see me, just to have sex.. I know he's waiting for me.. I know how it is. It's something you need to tell a guyfriend but it's worrying me a lot. I want to be able to trust him and feel safe... without hearing something that I told him from a friend. It's just not cool. Sexual or nonsexual. His mom doesn't want him to have sex until he's 18. It's just a year away basically. He said he wouldn't tell anyone because rumors might get to his brothers which would pass to his mom.

I already had a talk with him but these feelings of doubt are causing me to worry and feel sick. Sex is something serious for me. He said he loves me and that he will wait for me. He always says that he will wait. But I don't know if he truly means it. I don't know what to say either. He's coming over tomorrow and he was talking to my friend.. She told me what he said.. She asked him what we were doing and he said "Stuff ;)"

I just.. don't know where to start. Any advice.

I know if a guy can't wait for me, it's not worth it. Isn't a 6 month relationship too early for sex?
Well the time comes when the time comes. If he says that he will wait for you then take your time and don't just do it because you are protected, do it because you want to and if you love him.

If you trust him enough to know that he will really wait for you and let you take your time, then it probably means that he loves you to.

You will know if he really means that he will wait for you or not if you say your not ready and he answers "okay, we will do it when your ready."

If you are ready, make sure you trust him, love him, and have a good relationship with him. Don't let any guy push you to do anything you don't want to do. Also, don't do it just because you think it will make him happy. Do it when your ready. If he won't wait for you, you don't deserve him. Good luck!

Q: I'm a fifteen year old girl.

I have met this guy on an online forum. Let's call him Tommy. Tommy is a sweet guy and he's 4 years older than me. I know it might be illegal. But that's not the whole point of my story. [Keep in mind that I have chatted with him online for a course of 1 year. Almost everyday.] Here are some things that seem somewhat odd about Tommy ;
1. he never offers to send me pictures. And the only pictures I have of him are about 3 or 4 of very blurry and crappy quality (seemingly taken on a camera phone with very low quality)
2. I know that it won't work out. It's not my intention to make this guy my boyfriend. Yet he gets more intimate with me everyday. Asking me things that I wouldn't even tell my own mother.
3. Almost everytime we chat, he requests pictures from me. I send Tommy lot of pictures. He can make an album with the amount of pictures he has of me.
4. It annoys me that most of our conversations are based solely on music. Sometimes Tommy won't talk about anything else, and when I offer to, he shuns me.
5. He can be very sweet, yet sometimes very bitter and mean.
6. He has an online girlfriend. And when she isn't online, I feel like a last resort to him. As if he's bored and has no one else to talk to.

I feel the need to stop talking now because this is getting too long. He constantly sweet talks me, tells me that he knows me and loves me. I know this isn't true. I hate to say it, but this guy has got me hooked.

I'm just getting really suspicious. I just don't want him to be a pedophile or anything.

What can I do?

I aplogize for the length of this.
Yeha, i would stop contacting him right away and the reason he isnt sending you pictures is because he dosen't want you to see him being his REAL self.

Q: I just want some opinions on what everyones favorite cell phone provider is. Such as, cingular, verizon, tmobile, etc. Can everyone please just tell me which they prefer, and why. It's alot easier having people tell you what's best when they actually HAVE the plan, rather than researching on their websites... because most give biased opinions and really aren't as kind as they seem. Thanks so much :)
i have cingular but verizon is also good because you get free unlimited texting and all that but not many people have verizon so you cant talk to them for free.cingular is pretty good.

Q: Where can I get a good branch of skinny jeans that arn't too expensive?
I checked Forever 21, but maybe I didn't look hard enough.

14/f
charlotte russe has a lot of those, when i went last.

Q: ive neverbeen high
but i think im gonna try it soon
and dont tell me not too :]
but im just afraid im gonna get addicted to it
because if i did and my praents found out
id be dead. hah
but my friend has done it before
and the first time she did she said her throat burned but it was fun
and she also said if you get high and like youre not doing anything you get tired and it wears off
any other things?
YES you will get addicted to it! Its bad to...im just saying.....but if this is what u want, so be it.

Q: Hey. I'm 13, female. I was wondering, becuase I don't have any gym access, or really a place to run most times, how could i lose alot of weight, say 10, 15 pounds, by the first day of school?
Today is July 30. I need to lose this weight by September 4th.

How can I do it?!
You could run around the block every morning or night. Its really good for you to excersing (sp).

Q: maybe this is anodd question, but anyways... my boyfriend and i are verymuch sexualy active. and he is always asking if i would bewilling to give him head... i personaly think its nasty, but i do love him a lot, and i like making him happy, and i know that wouldmake himhappy.. i havedone it before.. but im not exactly sure how to do it, like do it well.... how do you do it,how do you do it well and so he will really enjoy it??

If you want to do it then thats your decision. Don't let anybody push you or make you do something you arent comfortable with. Dont do it just because you think it will make him happy. If you arent ready, then you arent ready. Thats okay. Hope i helped.

Q: I want to get mine done during the fall or winter so it can heal by next summer but I heard that it's bad to get one when you're young because you're still growing and it gets saggy. I'm 15 years old and I know a lot of people who get them at 10-12 but a lot of people advised me to wait or else it will get saggy, gross, and ugly and your body will outgrow it. Is that true? If it is, what age should I be when I get it done?
Well i think you should wait until you are 18 or 19, maybe even 20 until you get it done because yes sagging can happen and it takes a long time to heal. i dont have one but my step mom does and it took FOREVER for hers to heal. Hope i helped.

Q: hey. well, i was just wondring where i could get a really cute journal or diary. ones where i could write and put cute pictures in it. and also, where can i get a cute photo album? i don't want them really expensive eaither. mabe from like $10-$20. thanks a bunch!!
Ok, i dont know about a journal but i went to walmart the other day to get a photo album and the had a whole shelf of scrapbooking stuff and stickers, and pretty paper and photo albums and scrapbooking things. Hope this helps.

Q: 15/m
Three years ago i moved and changed school when i was at the other school i realy like some girl but i was to shy to tell her, so now i live about 40 minutes away from her and i had not seen her, i found her on myspace and i told her i liked her she also told me she like me, so what i want to know is how often do long distant relationships work? saying ill only see her about mayby once a month
Well it depend how much you trust eachother and really depends on how much you see eachother and talk to eachother...etc. I think you could make it last by keeping in touch.

Q: 15/f So i have this friend who is the same age as me and he lives like 5 houses down... this summer we have been hanging out alot... and i mean like 5 hours every other day... i have a lot of friends and he like... never leaves his house.. hed rather play video games then hang out with ppl but lately ive been having feelings for him and its realli freaking me out.. like he is realli fun to be around and ive known him since like 7th grade... well a few weeks ago i was like "what would you say if i said i liekd you more then a friend" and he got realli like nervous and later he told me online that we were to good of friends... so i kinda dropped it but im realli starting to have feelings for him and i realli want to win him over it a very SUBTLE way...what do i do i mean ive never had like a real boyfriend and hes never had a real girlfriend.....please help...what do i do!??!

Thanks
Ok, what i would do is tell him how you really feel about him, kind of ease your way in to telling. If your to shy to tell him face to face tell him over the internet. If he dosen't want to be more than friends then stay the way you are, it may be a little awkward at first but then it will get back to the way it was before. i have been in a situation sort of like this and thats how i handled it. Good luck!

Q: Is it cosidered anorexic if you dont eat all day, drink nothing but water, and then eat a little bit of dinner?
yes and no. It can include that or buliemia. But it is some kind of disease. Very addictive and hard to overcome it if you ever do do that.

Q: I bought a new shirt last week and wore it the day after I bought it. Well that night I noticed this weird pattern of bumps the upper part of my inner arm. It's been over 2 days and it's still there!

It itches really bad and looks like an oval of mosquito bites or pimples, but that's not what it is. On the shirt there was a similar pattern of jewels right there, so I'm thinking I had an allergic reaction to the jewels or something. But wouldn't it be gone by now?

Does anyone know what it could be or how I could get rid of it quicker? I've been putting my niece's eczema cream on it and it hasn't helped at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
its a rash. Put neosporin on it

Q: have you ever been cheated on or anything to do with cheating?

I just have a small situation. My friend Sam cheated on her bf Allan with my bf's best friend and his brother. She made out with both of the guys and gave on of them head. Her bf allan is good friends with me and my bf and we decided we should tell him-- so we did the next day.

Sam and I weren't completely good friends but we were close somewhat. But if he did this to her, I would probably tell her too. So she's pissed and she has all my friends against me. Even my bffl. But i know i did the rite thing. All this time, past 2 weeks I've been there for Allan; even pickig him up at midnite because he was so depressed and taking him 2 parties to help him get his mind off her. And she does everything she can like for example- she cuts hereself- for attention. Allan and her are supposed to talk 2morrow and i want to kick her ass so bad but I'm not going to be there.

there's only one lil thing that i messed up on. at the party i told her to go for--to cheat. and when i told my bffl the story i admitted i told her to go for it.....and allan doesnt kno that. i told him i never said that and he believes me. but now sam and kayla my best friend have this against but my bf was there but will tell alan that it never happened, but im still afraid he'll beloieve her. he want to be with her but knows he shouldn't.

what do u think i should do now? kayla keeps telling me to back off when sam from the beggining said she was gonna break up with him.kayla and sam never even liked each other? everyone feels sorry for her because all she does it cry and they give me stuff like "you have no idea how much she has been thru" blah blah when this is all for attention and i'm not stupid.

now i really don't know what do or even say?

Wow, lot of drama. It seems like sam is trying to get a lot of attention. Who would cut themselves, just for attention? Anyways, i think that yes her bf did have the right to know he was cheated on but now i think he thinks that u r really nice and cool for telling him, even though you actually told her to go on and do it. I think you should write him a note or tell him yourself that you actually did tell her to do it because you don't want to lie, that just makes you one of the others. The other stuff with your friends, i really dont know what else to say but after you tell him the truth (which u really need to do), i would step off like kayla said. Let them handle it and get through it by themselves. Then hopefully you will have nothing to worry about! Good luck!

Q: hey
15/m
k so i spent literally about....10 hours with my twin brother, his girlfriend, and her best friend yesterday at six flags/brothers gf's house and before yesterday i had began to think about trying to ask this girl out *i always get REALLLY nervous about talking to girls/asking girls out* and so i had intended on trying to make a move yesterday, and by the end of the day i still hadnt done anything...so i sat next to her in the car on the ride to my brother's gf's house for dinner and a movie, and it was about a 20 minute ride...and i STILL never made a move on her...
so we had some imo's pizza and then went downstairs to the basement to watch legally blonde, so i sat next to her on the couch, and still after about 30 minutes i hadn't made a move...
then i got up to go get another soda since i was done with my pizza, and when i get back my brother and his gf had taken over the couch, where me and the friend had been sitting...so i never got to make a move AFTER 10 HOURS!!! am i totally retarded for this? i mean, the girl seemed to like me, but i'm not really sure...i sat next to her on like...every ride...and we talked a lot all day, and all that stuff, but i don't know...should i have made a move, or should i just ask her to go see a movie and do it then, or what? was i stupid for not trying anything all day?

thanks guys
McC
No, your not stupid, you can take your time. Ask her to the movies or something first and then ask her out. It would be so sweet!

Q: My best friend and my boyfriend have been talking alot on the phone lately. He tells me he'd call me back in 10 minutes, but somtimes, he never does. Then, my best friend told me that he had called her and they talked about stuff. What should I do? I mean, he tells me he love me but he always talk to my best friend, calls her mommy or mama and they also have alot more in common than we do. What should I do?
sounds like she isnt a very good friend and that she dosent care if u and him are going out or not.
