about

hey i'm courtney! :)
i'm nineteen and i live in ohio. i am currently not going to college, and just working fulltime.. i'm single and not really looking but,i love to go tanning, shopping, and seeing friends. i am very social, and love to listen to problems and help the best way i know how. i am a very happy person, and willing to be there for people who need me most, and i care for most in life. that's a bit about me heh.

advice

what should i do if there is this guy that i really like and we dated for almost a month and things were going really well then he broke up with me and never really gave me a reason why. We still talk on aim like nothing happend and i havnt gotton the courage up to call him yet, but should i get him in person and talk to him and find out what happend with us?? or should i just let it be and just be friends with him??

You have a right to know. Ask him in person. He should have given you a reason.

Okay. I've been going out with my boyfriend for 9 months now. It's like I'm getting bored of him... he's not that interesting anymore. I have been grounded for a while so it's not like us not seeing eachother so much does the trick..It's like we don't have fun together anymore. I know if we broke up i'd be extremely pissed off if he was with another girl. I love him at least i did..and i think i still do...but idk its like I want to see what a new relationship would be like but at the same time i dotn because i know he cares a lot about me.

wtf should i do!?

please help!!!

This is when love comes into play. Being in love I mean. When you're with someone for a long time things aren't going to be exciting all the time. You got to try and spice things up a bit. If you aren't willing to try and make it worth then reconsider being with him. Sweetie, if you know that you'd be pissed if he got another girl then you DO care. Just how much?

There's this guy I really like. He's smart, funny, cute, charming, a little pervy (I like that in my men), just perfect for me really. We had a brief make-out session a few weeks ago that I'm anxious to repeat. My brothers work nights and my parents are going out of town next week (all week) so I was thinking of asking him to dinner, a scary movie, and maybe into my dimly lit front room or perhaps elsewhere in the house. Is this too forward? And does anyone have any tips to that might convince him to say yes? Wardrobe suggestions (I'm pretty thin. hip-huggers and tank tops look good on me, but whatever) and little flirty habits would be good. thx

Don't be subtle. You got to be striaght forward with this guy. If you two are going to be home alone then make it worth your while. Make it special. Let him know your into him. Maybe wear his fave. color or get his fave. snack food to watch the movie and eat. =] good luck sweetie!

Get him tickets to a baseball game. any guy eould love that. Or take him out to his fave. resturant. Or to see a movie. Or look at necklaces for men and get him one.

ok
15/m
i have a bit of a problem
i can't talk to girls to save my life
i try, and i fail...miserably
like...i'll post on her wall or something, then she'll say something back and i have no idea what to say next so i just post something like "yea..." or "uh huh..." and i know i sound like i'm completely uninterested in the conversation but i actually want to try and talk to girls i'm just really, really bad at it...i cant keep a conversation going! it happened all the time at events like football games throughout the school year- i'd meet someone i liked, but i wouldn't be able to hold a conversation to save my life! so can anyone give me some tips or something to help me out? i just need some help...there's this girl i really like and wanna ask her out eventually but if i can't hardly talk to her then that will be impossible!
thank you so much in advance!

If you worry and think more and more about what to say then you won't be able to think of anything. You have to just relax and feel comfortable around the girl. You have to pretend that you're already really close and you don't have to try andd think about what to say. It'll come naturally if you just trust yourself. Be confident. She's probably just as nervous as you hon.

Ok. Well when I was 13 I got the stupid idea to pierce my own belly button with a safety pin. I took it out like a day after but ever since then I have like this ball type thing under my skin.. like a scar you cant see really any type of scar from the outside. So do you think i could still get my bell button pierced [professionally this time]??

thanks

Yes you could. But, you might want to wait a little bit since you recently did it yourself. The scar will fade a little bit.

almost 15/f (already stopped growing/developing/maturing,etc.)

I'm a lonely "desperate" teenage girl. I have no friends, exept I sort of have two, but i never see them because one lives really far away from me and we used to talk online all the time but now she just talks to this stupid pothead boy and never talks to me anymore. She hasn't even had a date with him but she thinks she's his "girlfriend". My other friend is a boy, but he's gay, and he has a life so i rarely see him or talk to him.

I don't have/can't get a boyfriend, i used to have a lot of people who i talked to online (who i met through friends so i knew they were safe) who were interested in seeing me but of course they all just rejected me before it even began. :'(

Why is it that no one wants to date me?

I had a boy call me and ask me out but he had asburger's syndrome so that didn't work out.

I also asked another guy (and a few other guys at different times who all rejected me) out and we went to a movie and i kissed him on the cheek at the end. (then he rejected me too)

And i've had phone sex a lot with a couple diff. people, but that's all i've done.

I have a really beautiful face and my hair is strikingly gorgeous but i don't have an attitude, i'm just a nice, open person with a great sense of humor. Why don't people ask me out? I look much older than I am.


Why is everyone automatically unattracted to me?


I'm so fed up with everything in life. I feel like i'm caught in a pit that I can't get out of, and i've been severely depressed about everything and that hasn't changed.



I'd appreciate any advice on how to get through life. Even though I haven't had any really bad tragedies, I'm still unhappy. I can't seem to change that though.

Things get rough. You are going throgh a rough patch in your life right now. You'll be sixteen soon and things change a lot in your life. Rejection happens hon. Iy sucks but it happens. Don't try and worry about fnding a guy or whoever. Let them find you. Stop searching. Try to do something that makes you feel goos about yourself. You are perfectly fine! Stop worrying about yourself. Be thankful for things that you have. Don't try and please anyone. Try having an opptimistic attitude daily. Evenv though I'm sure it's rough. And if you have another bad day then message me. I'll be delighted to chat and help make you feel better. I'm sorry your sad right now. Things will get better. It can't get any worse. Good luck hon. =]

for the past couple days i have had really bad constipation. i was wondering what types of foods cause this and what foods get rid of it?

Apple cider, pickles, pickle juice could cause it. You have tovwait it out. Or medicine for IBS {irritable bowel syndrome}

my best guy friend and i have gotten a little flirtier than usual lately. today he told me not to accept his other best girl friend (who i dont know) on myspace, and not to tell her my screen name. when i asked why he said "because she wants to talk to you really bad and im a fraid of what she mite say" im lyk "why?" and he sent me a convorsation of him and her and she was saying how she thought he liked me and how she thought i liked him .. keep in mind ive never met this girl. lately i have been thinking that he likes me, and i like him... a lot=] should i make a move? if so, how?

Go for it. You got nothing to lose hon. tell him that the convo was pretty much right. Good luck! =] clearly he adores you.

Do situps daily. Start off with 60 a day and then increase until about 100 or 150 a day. eat healthier.

Okay, so I asked a question revolving around this, earlier, but I don't think I explained it very clearly, or may not have provided enough information.
I'm warning you, this will be long; but I'll rate high to anyone who will sit and read, and help me out, with a straight-forward answer.
So, I'm trying to lose weight this summer. Not even specifically that, more revolving around the fact that I want to look more thin. My first question would be, if I work out, will I look more muscular, or look more toned?

Here is my eating plan:
Eat three meals a day,
Healthy snacks (grain cereals, fruits and veggies-anyone wanna list more?) any time I want, when I'm actually hungry.
Fatty snacks require extra workout, ect-certain amount of curlups for each snack, ect.

Workouts will consist of:
Running on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for cheering,
Cheerleading practice five days a week, starting in August,
Curlups for snacks
Curlups just, generally every night
Swimming, basically every day. At least 20 minutes at a time.


So, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how well those combinations will work out, and possibly how much weight I'd be able to lose in maybe a month, or over my whole summer break?

Btw, I weigh about 100 pounds, am 14 years old, and am at about five feet tall.

Thanks for any help!

That sounds like a perfect plan. you'll build some muscle yes, but def. will look toned. Don't be frightened at first. You might gain more weight to begin with then it will shedd right off.
Probably you'll see a five pound difference in a month and so on.

when im talking with my boyfriend sometimes he says hes so ugly. and i think hes adorable so i tell him hes not hes really good looking. then he will say something like "you are the only one who thinks that" and occaisonally he will say "it doesnt matter what anyone but you thinks anyway but im still ugly" is he implying something? i get worried. or is he just really self conscious? i try to tell him hes not but he wont agree.

He isn't very self-confident. Try giving him one compliment a day on anything about him. It will give him a confidence boost for sure. Just out of the blue compliment him.

My new best friend is a paraplegic. We have
become really close but he never talks about
it.

I do know he had some kind of diving accident
but that is all. We get along great and talk
about everything but this one thing.

Would it be really rude of me to just ask about
it? I'm asking because he is my friend and I
want to know all about him just like he knows
about me.

I don't want it to seem like I am being nosy
or anything because I really am not. Its just
I'm always wondering things about it and it is
distracting that I do.

How would you approach the subject?

Thank you for your time.

Just come out and ask them. Don't beat around the bush with it. I'm sure they know you are curious.

how do you get peach or rather a baby pink colored lips?.

Buy some lipsticks that match your skin color.

After I masturbate, and I get an orgasm, I can't do it anymore, because I'm not like, horny anymore! Why not?
How could I change this
Thanks in advancee

Once you orgasm your already at your peak. So your body isn't turned on anymore. Wait about twenty mintues next time and try again.
