advice

What do you think about sex before being married. I don't know if it's wrong or right so I'm asking you. Please voice opinions and experience.

I think that sex before marriage is fine as long as two people are comfortable with each other and trust each other. If two people are dating for a long time and they are ready for sex, it's fine to do it as long as they won't regret it in the future.

What are some shampoo and conditioners that leave your hair smelling good, even if you shower at night for the next day, cause my hair always smells good when i shower but once it dries it smells kinda not good. Personal experiance please! Thanks!

Aussie, Herbal Essence or Tresemme. Try not to brush your hair so much but even if you don;t think your hair smell goods anymore, it probably does. :] You can also use good hair sprays that smell good but those three shampoos will leave your hair smelling good and soft.

So I never really had a problem with dry lips until now. Winter is coming, and my lips are becoming insanely chapped. So I want to use chapstick, except that stuff tastes sooo bad...and I'd like something that my boyfriend can also enjoy ;). Something minty...or fruity...either way, as long as its moisturizing and isn't sticky! Help?? Links please!

Blistex works amazing. It's kind of like Carmax but minty and doesn't taste as gross. Also ChapAid chapsticks work really good.

i am 12 years old (a girl) and my hair is like a light brown and about an inch past my shoulder. anyways i was wondering how to make that bump on the top of my hair.

thanx! =]

Bump? Like with your bangs? Tease them just a little bit and use bobby pins and hairspray. It's simple.

Alright, I had to delete everythink off of my computer, and I lost everything, even iTunes. All my music is gone, but it's all on my iPod. So, I know how to get it all on there, but when I clicked "music" on the page where my iPod is, it's says it will empty my music and add the ones in my library, and i only have a few cause im purchasing some music right now.


But I don't want to lose my music..and i'm scared if I do this, I will.
Can someone PLEASE give me step-by-step, and if it helps..I think you hafe to answer a question, 'did you save your music before your iTunes library got deleted.' Well, i didn't...i have it all on my iPod.

Ah, helppp!

You have to do is re-install iTunes. Then, once you plug in your iPod, it'll come up with a dialogue that'll say something like, "This iPod is synched with another computer's library" and click no, you do not want to update using this computer.

Now,ow you're gonna go to My Computer. Under the "Tools" menu, go to "Folder Options" and click the "View" tab. Click "Show Hidden Files and Folders" then click ok. Now, your iPod should show up (it'll be faded out though)

Now, you're gonna click on the iPod icon that showed up, and go to iPod_control. There's a "music" folder with 6 folders named F00, F01, etc. Make a folder (either on your desktop or My Music, wherever you keep your music files). Open each folder (the F00 ones), click on a file ( they'll have names like HFJR, but that's okay), and hit CRTL+A (to select all) then CTRL+C (to copy) Then, open the new folder you just created & paste(CTRL+V). Repeat for all six folders.

Then, open iTunes and click File->Add Folder to Library->[folder name you created] and click OK.

Trends aren't important to me but making my style my own is important to me. I know I can't be original but I need some help. For reasons irrelevant to the question a large amount of my clothing has disappeared. 8-) I am NOT emo, but I think someone who is emo might be able to help me. =/

In the makeup department I'm good and in the hair department I'm okay but I need some ideas for clothes.. stuff I could find laying around the house and do something really cool with.. Cutting the fingers off gloves type stuff.. only something I haven't thought of.

I currently have limited money and supplies so the cheaper your answer the better- lol. Any hair ideas that are easy and cheap would be nice too. I usually wear it down or in a ratty bun or over my face.

I feel kind of stupid for asking this on here but nobody knows who I am so it must be safe! Haha.

Please help and thank you.


THANKS A WHOLE LOT.
Any answer is pretty much a good answer on this one!

I'm not emo, but I'll try to help! Be creative when it comes to clothes. I suggest that learning how to sew (if you already don't know) would help out. That way you can make your own clothes and you'll wear what you like. Look through your closet and try putting things together that you normally wouldn't wear. It's creative and you actually might like it. You can go on myspace and look at some people
s pages. Their clothes and ideas might inspire you and you could even think of your own ideas. If you want a different look, change your hairstyle. Maybe cut it, dye it, add a different color? Anything. Trying different hairstyles and test out different eye shadows. Be creative with you look and do what you think will make you look good and as long as you like it, it's all that matters.

Which do you think is better for a book? A romance about teenagers where the characters learn frienship and life skills or one kinda like mean girls in a way where there is this girl who goes and gets messed up in the popular crown and that book talks a little about most situations facing teens today:popularity, drinking, sex, partying, pregnancy, ect. i think the romance one may be better because its also about who you are and sounds better but idk which to choose. thanks!!! and i will rate *high* if you tell me your opinion cause i want as many responses as possible!!! :D

I personally like books that are based on things that all teenagers can relate to. Popularity, drugs, drinking, sex and all those things. I would choose a book like that because you actually can learn things but then again, a romance book can also be good. What genres of books are you interested in? Which ever one you like more, I suggest reading but my personal opinion is a book like Mean Girls.

My friend saves the most STUPIDEST things EVER on her computer and there's almost no space left!
I have a lot of space though, but I guess it's because I'm not interested in anything and she's interested in a lot of things.

Any tips?

Tips for exactly what? If she wants to save stupid and random things on her computer, that's her deal. You shouldn't worry about that but maybe you could tell her that her computer would go faster if she deleted and got rid of some of the things she doesn't use. It's okay if you're not interested int he same things. It doesn't mean that you guys can't be good friends still.

hey my friend had these really comfortable looking shoes on today but i cant find them anywhere, there kind of like house shoes except there not, does anyone know where i can find them?

I think that you're talking about the Ugg slippers? You can eather wear them inside or outside. I got mine at Target but you can also get them anywhere.. I know that Walmart also sells them and they have different colors.

My ipod just froze what do I do? I connected it to my computer but nothing happened. Mine is one of those ipod video if that helps.

I have a iPod video as well and it used to do that. Just let the battery die out and re-charge it. Next time, just be patient with it because it's more likely to freeze if you're pressing more than one button or changing songs too fast.

alright so me and this guy "john" we'll call him..are talking. we like each other a lot. we've prolly been tlaking now for a couple of weeks.

my best friend "anne" she is a flirty person.. and its pissing me off. shes all over him all the time - and doesnt think anything of it.

the other night she got pissed at ME because she thought i told someone i was mad at her for flirting - but i never even said it.. thats cleared up now. but it just goes to show that she freaks out when she doesnt get her way and people dont take her side.

anne and john flirt in front of my face but supposedly theyre just FRIENDS. i want to believe it, but its so hard to watch.

ive been hurt more than once in my life, and im afraid that im gonna get fucked over in the end.. idk what to do..

advice?

If you trust your best friend, then believe her when she says that it's nothing. I know it's hard to because you really like this guy, but some people really do flirt without noticing. Maybe you could talk to Anne, nicely, about the situation or you could talk to John about it. Explain to them that it's not fair that they're putting it all in your face like that. I don't think they intentionally flirt in front of you to make you jealous.

A few of the teens at my church won't date anybody when they're in high school, b/c they think it's pointless... but some of them will date in high school; I've dated people before, but I'm starting to see the other people's pov (the one's that won't date anybody), but I really like someone, and I don't know if I should date while I'm in high school or wait like SOME of the people at my church.... any ideas?

If you like someone and you WANT to date them, then why not? People have different opinions and views on things and some of the people at your church find it pointless. Maybe they haven't found the right person? Do you feel it's pointless.. I mean if you do then I wouldn't suggest dating that person. You could end up really liking this person. Just try it and see how things go. If you're not happy, you can always end the relationship.

i dont know if you could actually help me out here but ill try, latley ive been really upset, i have a lot on my mind and i dnot know what it is, im just not happy that much anymore. i feel like i need to get away from all the drama and stress from sports and school ? but i dont know what to do . i dont wanna turn to my close friends for help i wanna try and work stuff out on my own is that good or no?

I know how you feel, actually I go through that too and I'm sure every other teenager. In a way, it's somewhat normal. I get upset over the littlest things too but I keep it to myself and I get over it. Getting away from drama and some people is a good idea. Take a weekend for yourself and just relax. Chill and don't do anything stressful. Don't worry about school that much because it will be so stressful. It's not a bad idea to talk to your close friends. They could help you out and maybe they know what you're going through. If you really want, try to figure it out on your own and what it is that you really want.

In my house we have a family dog, that everyone loves, including me. She sleeps with everyone, and everyone shares her bla blah blah. I want my own dog, like a small one. That i can say is just mine, and just for me. I certainly won't forget about my own family dog, because i love her more than Harry Potter, my problem is my mom doesn't want another dog. My dad said its fine, but nobody understands how bad i want this thing. It means alot to me, to have my own unique dog that i can calll my own, and not the famimlys. My brother and sister don't help much either. So, what should i do?

Keep asking them. I asked for my little yorkie for three years until they surprised me with it but I'm sure you wouldn't want to wait that long. Talk to your mom and maybe your dad would talk her into it. Let her know that you would be just as responsible if not more for this dog and that she won't regret letting you get one.

im 16/female if that helps =]
okaay well theres this kid who i was hookin up with for a while, i liekd him and he liked me and we were really close to going out. then stuff happened and we stoped hoookin up and then after a few months we just started to hook up again for awhile we didnt really like like eachother but we still hooked up and now i think i really like him .. i dont know anymore, should i just stop hooking up with him cause he doesnt like me and i dont wanna fall for him and him not have feelings for me? sorry if its confusingg, i just dont wanna get hurt again :/

It seems like the only reason you're still hooking up with him is because you have some left over feelings for him. If he doesn't like you, then don't hook up with him. That may be all that he wants and it's not right. You guys could still be friends and hang out. He might actually start to like you again if you spend more time together instead of always hooking up.
