This isn't your average "AM I PREGNANT?" help question; it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing if I was. Anyways, on to the question. I missed a few of my birth control pills and followed the instructions on what to do. The first test after missing my period turned out negative, and then the next one positive. I thought that was odd, so i took another and it was positive too. Then about 30 minutes later or so, i started my period. Could this just be a false pregnancy reading? Once again, it's not something that I'm stressing over. (link)
|
Those tests have had false positives before. They have made a lot of improvements in them though.
I suggest you go to your local health department or your doctors office and get a test done from them. A blood draw will tell you for absolute certain if you are or not. :)

So heres my problem...
my parents are really uptight, and a little closed minded when it comes to my future. They still have this picture perfect mental image of me graduating with honors, and getting a bussiness degree, and starting a normal life. Problem is, I dont want that. I have bigger plans, and a passion for music so great its almost unreal. All i want to do with my life is something meaningful, and inspiring to others like me. Sure it may sound like a childish dream, i want to be a rockstar kind of thing, but hey who ever said we cant dream big right?
My question is, how do I get them to realize its not going to be how they picture it. every time i try to confront them about it, they brush it off as if to say "you think thats what you want to do" but i dont think, i know. thats what they dont seem to understand, becuase they never had a passion like I have.
Any help would be much appreciated. (link)

It sounds like you have the determination it takes to succeed in what you want to do.
Parents always think they know whats best. I think when you tell them you don't want to do things quite the way they want you to its probably scary for them.
With luck, and possibly some success :) they will
probably, in time, come to accept whatever you decide to do with your future. For right now just don't bring the subject up any more than you have to.
You will probably have to work at a few jobs along the way, but, I wish you luck in following that dream. You're only young once you know, so go for it. :)

EDIT))))))
I don't mind if you ask another question. :)

i am 13 years old and in seventh grade (female)
all the girls in my grade wear eyeliner except for me. My mom won't let me. (i asked her one time over the summer) what can i say to her or do so that she will let me wear it? (link)
|
Well, you won't like my answer I'm sure, but I have to tell it like a mom!
If she is a really good mom...you aren't going to get her to let you wear makeup until she thinks its right.
The reason is this. So many girls are growing up way to fast. Wearing makeup makes you look older. I don't think I allowed my daughter to wear it until she was a freshman in high school.
So, your mom is just doing her job. She isn't trying to be mean to you or anything. :)

hi YG! I have to say, you give some of the best advice I've seen on this site. I'm lauraxomichelle by the way =)
Now on to the actual question. =D
Is it just me, or has the quality of questions really gone down in the past year? I don't see as many that are worth answering these days. (link)
|
Sorry for the long rambling!
I think after you have been here a while you do feel that way. I have been here almost 2 years and it seems there aren't to many questions I haven't seen before!
When it starts getting me down or aggravated I just step back and don't answer very many. I just rate them and approve them.
Then I think about it and try to remember what it was like for me when I was a teen.
There were computers around but mostly for business, not any in homes that I ever remember seeing. There was really no way to ask anyone questions. If you didn't want to ask mom or a friend just stayed in the dark.
So while all the questions are a lot alike there are really kids out there that are just...for lack of a better word, stupid. They really don't know how to Google anything. They really want the answers to the questions we think are kind of stupid. So I get to feeling bad for them and answering again!
So, I guess we just keep answering and hope we help someone get a little smarter. With luck they will remember the site when they are older and have more interesting questions.
We really need more college age and older users. We might get some better questions. Unfortunately
when they come here and get a 13 year old answer to a good question, they don't return.
So answer the repeats and hopefully educate a naive kid. We have to remember that some kids are from small rural areas and are honestly naive about the world.
And if you see a better question and know the answer, by all means answer it. If it has a really idiotic answer already, file an abuse report. We need those asking good questions to stay or come back.
Thanks for liking my advice. I try my best! :)
Feel free to use my email address anytime.

What are some questions you can ask someone to see if they're like, a sexual preditor posing as a teenager? Cause there's this guy that keeps talking to me over Myspace, and he's super nice and his pictures are cute, but they could be fake..And I'm kinda suspicious of the things he has said. They're not pervertish, but they're just..I don't know..odd to me. So what are some things I could ask? He's super sweet, and I really don't want him to be fake. I'm just worried. Don't tell me to go to someone, cause I want to figure this out myself. Please help! (link)

TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS!
If something about this guy is making you wonder...even a little bit, stop talking to him.
Block him, do whatever you have to do.
There is no real way of knowing for sure. That's what makes online predators so dangerous. No special questions you can ask because they lie, and are very good at lying.
Trust those instincts and don't talk to him anymore. :)

i know this is random, but do twin girls or triplet girls get their period at the same time or around the same time? (link)
|
I would have to say yes.
Now I couldn't find anything online and my book is packed away, but this is what I learned in psych
behavior class...
Women who live close to each other, like sisters and mom, dorms and even on the same floor of apartment complexes, will all have their periods at around the same time. I sure wish I could find something about it for you online because I can't remember why. :)

I am 65 yrs old and have lived with Linda for some 10 years and about 12 months ago her 35 yr old son move back in(we live in her house)and even though he is a college grad he has not been able, probably because of his background check, to obtain a permanent job, other than waiting tables. He is extremely sloppy even to the point that he will not sleep in his own "room" because it is "too nasty"(which it really is) and he actually has trashed Linda's house with cats and just his life style. She has tried to get him motivated to find a "job" and get out but he hasn't and I don't think he has the ambition to even try. As long as she allows him to stay he has no ambition to leave. My problem is should I continue to live this way or move out and "go on with my life"? I have a chance to buy my own garden home and I think I should do that because it will allow me to have some property for my children to inherit and it will allow me to get away from an apparent no end situation(or at least one that will last for a good while before it changes). My question: am I being smart in moving and getting my life going otherwise or am I just making a big mistake? Any good advice will be very helpful.
(link)

If it were me I'd get my own home.
That doesn't come without its problems however. Linda will be hurt is the biggest thing. Unless she is coming with you?
It will be hard to get rid of a 35 year old moocher.
As you said he has absolutely no incentive to leave.
Why would he? He has a warm place to live, All his meals are cooked for him, his laundry is washed and folded. He doesn't have to spend a dime. Hes not going anywhere soon.
Linda will have to be the one to give him the boot.
That's hard for a mom to do but it will have to be done if she wants him gone. :)

okay, so my whole life i've wnted nothing
but to be a successful hairstylist, and own
my own buisness, like an upscale place.
but as the days get closer to graduating, im
starting to wonder, maybe this isnt cut out for me?
im taking boces next year for cosmetology, and
i just have this feeling im going to be too
scared to cut people's hair. i dont want to mess
up. and i want this more than anything.
i know its still early and i have yet to have
the training, but is it normal to be worried?
(link)
|
It is normal to be worried, but no need to be.
When you are training to cut hair and dye hair they will have fake heads with hair for you to practice on. When you get done learning with them, they will have you cut real peoples hair.
People will know you are a student and won't get mad if it isn't perfect. So don't worry. If its what you really want to do you will do well at it. :)

hi this is really long but i'll do my best to make it short. thanks.ok well im a 17 year old girl and my boyfriend is 19. we have been going out for about 8 and a half months and so far we've had a pretty good relationship. not too many arguements or anything and we love each other a lot. before this relationship we were off and on for about 2 years but everytime we went out back then, it was never too serious. this time he is really serious and he even proposed! heres the problem, i said yes to him when he asked me to marry him without sort of thinking and i know that was stupid on my part, and i not only dont want to marry him but i want to break up. thats because my best friend that i have known for 13 years does not like him and they always argue and my friend is i guess more important to me then my boyfriend. the reason im trapped is because now everytime i tell him something he doesnt want to hear he starts going crazy. like punching walls and cutting himself and threatening me by saying hes going to kill himself. and in one arguement he started tossing me around and herting me. i know thats not healthy but i dont know what to do. he has a history that i didnt know about and his mom knows about his problems but she doesnt do anything! i dont know what to do! i just want to break up without herting anyone. please help! (link)

If you want to break up because your friend doesn't like him then you certainly don't want to marry him.
If you are going to break up, just do it. There is really no nice way to do it and someone will be hurt. There is just no way around that.
If you feel he will get violent, do it in a public place and have a friend standing by to get you out of the situation.
If he is going to threaten suicide or something like that, call his mom and tell her about his threats. What he does, cruel as it sounds, is not your problem. Do not be threatened into staying in a bad relationship.

Ok! Me and My boyfriend Logan both are really jealous, and greedy people. So, one day he gets mad at me for going over to my friend Dougs house, so we get into an argument, and I bring up the time he went to his friends house, who he happened to have asked out last year, and he got mad at me saying it's not the same, so we both agreed that he would avoid Brittany if I avoided every guy I knew. But, he took it back today, and said he wanted to be her friend again. So I said I wanted to go to Dougs birthday, and he got mad at me, and said that I was being selfish.
So, basicaly...
Am I being selfish, or do I have the right to be mad? Because, if I have the right to be mad, I don't want to back off, I want to keep arguing until he comes to realize that maybe he screwed up, but if I am just being selfish, I want to appologize so everything will be better again. (link)

The truth?
Lets use the word childish. You should BOTH be able to see your friends, male or female without the other throwing a fit. If you had intentions to date these other people you would have done it by now.
You both need to sit down and discuss your relationship. You are going to have to learn to trust one another and get control of the jealousy.
If you don't your relationship is doomed.
You don't mention your ages, but one day you will be out in the world earning a living. You will be in contact and working closely with people of the opposite sex. You can't be getting jealous in this
case.
I don't think it is fair he can see his female friend and you can't see your male friend. It shouldn't even be an issue. Have a talk. You both
need a more mature approach to your relationship. :)

Ok so I've been on the pill for 5 months this month. When can I have un protected sex?
My boyfriend and I have been having sex for about 9 months now and have always used a condom. It doesn't bother me or my boyfriend about using extra protection but I was just curious!
Thanks! (link)
|
You are safe after the first 30 days.
Extra protection at this point is protection from
disease. You will not become pregnant if he doesn't use a condom.

Here is a site that lists all their CDs. Should you want to look up other bands CD list in the future (or now!) Just look for their discography. That's the fancy word you need to find what you're looking for!

Ive liked this kid for two years. i began to get over him when i realized that id never have a chance with him and he became my best guy friend. i moved on from him even though inside i'll always have some kind of feelings for him. now i have a boyfriend whom I like a lot, but the problem is my guy friend likes me now. i have no idea what to do. people keep on telling me that i have to choose and i know that i do but it is almost impossible. i dont want to leave the one i love for the one i like and so on. how should i apporach this? (link)
|
Its probably that he didn't realize he liked you until you were no longer available!
Right now, if you are happy with the guy you are dating, stick it out with him. Your friend will always be your friend, and you may date him in the future for all you no.
Right now though you have to tell him you are going with the other guy and owe it to him to give it a chance. :)

Well there is this guy and I am totally starting to crush on him and I was just wondering if there is a for sure way to tell if he likes me back!! He is in two of my classes and i am a freshman in high school. Well anyways it seems like he is flirting with me, for instance he usually takes something from me and then he expects me to chase him around to get it back so i dont know if that is a sign because he does it in a sort of flirtacous. Sometimes when i glance over during class to check the clock or something and i will see him quickly glance away when i make eye contact with him when i see him looking my way. In our english class he was also mad because we have to change seats every six weeks and we use to sit next to eachother so he was mad because we werent by eachother anymore. I just really need to know if we have a chance even though we dont really talk outside of english and biology because we dont really see eachother. I really want him to be the one to ask me out or to just hang out so what should I do for him to know I like him back besides just flirting? I am also kind of shy unless u know me pretty well then i am extremly outgoing!haha! Last year I wasnt outgoing around guys but this year i am more chill around them and myself so I really hope that is a good thing. Well anyways i would really appreciate it if u could help me out because i am at a major loss! (link)
|
Does he tease other girls like he does you? If not then he probably likes you.
When you catch him looking flash him a big smile.
Tell him if he doesn't give you back your whatever he is taking from you, he is going to have to take you to a movie. See if that doesn't get a positive response. :)

i shave my vagina and bikini line of course. but it always bleeds and i get terrible razor burn right after.
am i doing it right?
help. (link)
|
Oh my dear I think you are scraping to hard! Don't do that. You must be in horrible pain after doing that!
They do make hair removal products if you want to get all the stubble. Just make sure you get one that's safe to use in the bikini area. DO NOT use one made for legs and underarms. They will burn you worse than the razor.
If a razor is your only option and you won't consider just not shaving, then use Lots of shaving lotion and don't put so much pressure on the razor.
Use as light a touch as you can in such a delicate area. :)
|
Okay so as I've said before...I REALLY like this guy. Him and his girlfriend are over and he's acting like he did before. I don't know if he likes me though. He knows I do and stuff but he won't give me a straight answer. He's like asked me why I'm not on AIM anymore, which is a good sign. He's just held my hand for no reason and flirts and stuff but he might just want me to be a hookup or something.
I don't want to be so forward about it in case he's not doing anything for a reason but is there any way to get a better answer out of him? (link)
|
It sounds to me as if he likes you.
If he is just out of a relationship though, give him some time. You don't want to be the rebound girl. The one he dates to just get over the last girlfriend.
So, the fact that he isn't asking you out right away
may very well be a good thing. Just continue as you are and when he is ready he will probably ask you out. Don't rush things to fast. :)
