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.

do guys not like curly hair on girls? i dont have like an afro, but my hair is curly. its really hard to straighten it because it doesnt really work that well. it's just like everyone has straight hair these days, i really wish i did, and i don't know if curly hair is attractive to guys. i don't have like ugly frizzy curly hair, alot of people tell me my hair is pretty, but it is poofier than straight hair obviously because its curly. so i guess my question is - do guys not like that? and i don't want "it depends on the guy" - just give me your opinion or answer.

If you don't want "it depends on the guy" then what do you want? That is the most honest thing I can tell you.

It truly does depend on the guy. Some guys like curly hair. Some guys like straight hair. Some guys like short, wavy hair. Some guys like long hair. Just accept your hair. It's probably really pretty. Besides, guys around here tend to like curly hair because it's funner to play with. You can boing it & goes right back to shape. =)

we had 2 cockatiels. 1 died this morning and the alive one keeps whistling. he wont eat treats. what could you do to bring joy to a cockatiel? do they like music? we also have another parrot, but they cant be in the same cage because the parrot would bite the cockatiel. we have the cockatiel outside right now because my mom says it likes to communicate with the wild birds by whistling. but what else could you do?

Buy a new bird for it. It's just in mourning because it misses the company of the other cockatiel. Other than that, just bury your other birdie.

I know it's wrong to fall in love with your teacher, but I mean, I can't help my heart can I? Recently I've caught a lot of feelings for one of my teachers, who is by the way only in his early or mid 20's (i'm 16). I tried to make myself not like him, but as days go by and I have to see him everyday, there's nothing I can do except like him even more. It's getting to the serious point where, I think about him almost all day and at times I get really depressed just for the simple fact that I know I'll never have him. Plus, he's one of these strict teachers who is very conscious that he is handsome, so he keeps a barrier btw him & his students, which only makes him less attainable. Sometimes I catch him looking at me, & I also understand before a teacher he's a man, but I also get paranoid because he knows embarrassing and/or personal things about me that no one else does...i have problems i know, but It's really not my fault...I'd appreciate the help & concern...Thankz

Although you have feelings for your teacher -- understand that you can't! Not only is that bad on his part, but it's bad on yours too. You can get this man into tons of trouble & ruin his career. Not only that, but he could be sent to jail if he does anything with you, or if you do anything with him. If anything happens & people find out, your rep will go down the drain. People will think of you as the skanky girl who had an affair with her teacher. I'm not saying you're a skank, but that's how people will look at you if things were to happen. It's alright to think he's gorgeous, but it's wrong to actually love him.

my boyfriends friends are really perverted. and im fourteen and kinda big like 36d big. and they always say grose things to him about my boobs and they always try to grab me. and he tells them to knock it off but they dont listen and he just gives it up. they keep telling me one day when i least expect it there all gonna rape me. and he just tells me they dont have the balls to do that. and it really annoying what should i do?

Tell an adult. That's sexual harassment & it needs to be reported. The more you just sit there & do nothing about it, the more they're going to do it. Open up your mouth & tell someone.

where can i get a really cute bikini thats not overly expensive or i can get the top and the bottom for one price. not like 30 for the top and 30 for the bottom.

Target & Wal*Mart. Maybe even Kohl's.

I'm 15 years old and I can't swallow pills. :(
I can swallow pasta whole and recently I swallowed a vitamin that was coated in something that made it slippery so it was easier to swallow but not everything comes like that, of course. And I don't remember how I did that. It's really annoying because I just got these pills but I CANNOT swallow them. I've practiced with tic tacs but even they don't go down. I try putting it in my mouth then gulping water and tilting my head back but it doesn't work. What's wrong with meee?!

Just relax & don't think about swallowing the pill so much. It'll go down eventually.

Hey well there's this song and I'm having trouble with its name. Its chorus go something like this:

We have to take out clothes off
and we have to party all night
and We have to take our clothes off
To have a good time

I think it's Gym Class Heroes ft. Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boys, but I don't know the song title so could you help me out?

thanks

You're right, it's Gym Class Heroes, but it's definitely not featuring Pete Wentz. Pete doesn't sound like that when he sings.

Clothes Off by Gym Class Heroes ft Patrick Stump.

o.k. this is kinda complicated so just bare with me!(SORRY THIS IS SO LONG) theres this boy in the 7th grade who use to like me(lets call him sam) but i didnt feel the same way so we just stayed friends. well sam is really sweet and short and he always gives me freindly hugs and i give them back cus hes my friend and i think its sweet. well i started going with this guy in the 6th grade(im in the 8th) and then sam started goin with this girl in the 6th grade to(lets call her sara).i still gave sam hugs and he the same. his girlfriend is kind of a fight maker and ive never got into a fight and am not tring to. well i was walking my bf to his bus one day and sara came up and i think she was trying to hug him and my bf started getting mad and running away from her but she wouldnt let go of his hand!my friend was walking with me and kept telling me to tell sara to stop touchen his hand but i didnt want to start a fight so i didnt say anything. well the next day we had field day and i saw sara jump on my bfs back and was trying to get a piggy back ride!i told the same friend that was walking with me what i saw and she got mad and told a friend of ours whos very brave about how the girl kept touching my bf. then our(brave) friend went over to sara(i ran away)and told her that she needed to stop touching my bf because i didnt like it.sara seemed to be afraid of our friend and i dont think she said anything.i talked to my bf about it and he said she just ran up behind him and jumped on his back.he said sara likes him and is just mad because he doesnt like her.later i relized sara might have been doing all that because somebody told her i was hugging sam.what should i do if she does it again? she doesnt seem like the kind of girl who i could sit down and talk to about it so im not sure what to do.i dont like or apperciate her all up on my man but i dont want to get a fight started over it ethier.im not in the same grade as her or my boyfriend so i have no way of knowing if she is still messing with him. what should i do!
p.s. -if you were wondering sara is still going with sam while she is flirting with my man!

Seriously, punch this girl in the face or at least SAY something to her. She's NOT going to stop until someone says something to her. That someone needs to be YOU. Go up to her, let her know how you're feeling & tell her that she's messing with the wrong person & she better stay away from your boyfriend. In the mean time, tell Sam what's going on with Sara & see what he says.

how do i motivate myself? my appetite to overeat seems to outweigh my desire to be skinny. but then after i binge i get so depressed that i'm not skinny.

Everytime you go to eat something fatty - remind yourself that it's NOT going to help you lose weight, and it'll only make you gain it. Don't starve yourself, & don't throw up, but lose weight healthily. Stop eating junk food. Stop drinking soda, and stop eating fast food. Drink water. Eat fruits & veggies. Eat dairy products. Exercise a ton. The only way to lose weight is to stay focused on your goal & do anything that's healthy to reach it.

me and my boy friend aren't very close and we never really talk and when we do it's during class and it's about stupid stuff. i really want him to kiss me before school ends for the summer, because the only thing we have done is hugged. i try to get him to no that i want to kiss him by writing 'i love josh' on my hands and stuff. also my friends write zaps (a zap is like a dare that you write on your hand and if you look at it before a certian time you have to do it) on my hands really big that say 'kiss walker!' and i don't no what else to do! he is really shy so i don't think he will do it and i could never do it cause i am to chicken. please help! thanks!

Just kiss him. He's probably nervous & isn't sure how to go about it. It's okay for you to make the move, it takes a lot of pressure off of him.

Whenever I have a tampon in I still have leaks! Like all the time.
What am I doing wrong?

And today at dance practice it hurt more than anything. Did I put it in wrong?

If it hurts when you put it in or have it in, then you're doing it wrong. You're not supposed to feel it at all. It's supposed to be really comfortable for you. Also, buy pantiliners or get a bigger tampon.

okay i have this ex bf who i still like so much its not even funny. out of all the guys ive gone out with, i alwyas wish i was with him. ive gone out with him about 5 times already this year
well hes mad at me for like the bazillionth time and i hate when hes mad at me because we dont talk or anything
and so i really screwed up this time because i acually started acting tough to him. i have a lot of guy friends that are in a gang so whenever i have a problem i tell my guy friends and they usually just scare the person. so my ex was calling me slut, dumb drunk, and other words i dont think i can say on here and coming from him it means a lot to me so i said he should watch it, and that got into this big deal and how im a fake and all this stuff.

i dont wanna act tough. i just wanna act like i dont care, because i cant really talk to him since he wont care and hes one of those guys that when they say they dont care. they mean it.
but its killing me not talking to him.
pleasee help me. i think about this 24/7 and just thinking about this deal makes me acually tear up.

Honestly, if this guy gets mad at you for stupid reasons & breaks up with you on & off, why in the hell do you wanna be with him? Look what he's doing to you -- AND YOU'RE NOT EVEN WITH HIM. Dude, seriously, FUCK HIM. He's not worth any amount of your time & you need to get over him. He's a jerk & a loser. You should've learned that by now.

were getting our yearbooks in a week and i would like to put in my boyfriends yearbook that i want to kiss him(accually kinda make-out) but i dont know how to tell him in his yearbook. im to afraid to ask him in person so i want to put it in his yearbook. we have been going out for almost two months and we havnt kissed yet and im dying to make-out with him.it would be my first time making-out(ive alredy had my first kiss) and for some reason i really want my first time to be with him. can someone give me some ideas about what i could write?i have one idea and that is to put after p.s. im still waiting for my kiss but thats all ive got.thanks to anyone whoe trys!

Don't tell him that you wanna kiss him in his yearbook. That'd be so lame. Just kiss him. I'm pretty sure he'll get the picture. Just write that you're happy with him & that he's amazing.

ok so i got my 1st boyfriend today (im 14) and i really dont know what to do. like my mom doesnt really want me to have a b/f so we cant go to each others houses, talk on the phone because i dont have a cell right now, or see each other much because we go to different schools. ive only been taken for less then an hour and i miss being single so much, what should i do?

If you're unsure of what you want & you like the single life, then you're being unfair to your boyfriend & you need to end things with him or at least talk them out. Explain to him what's going on & stay friends.

are beyonce and jay z broken up?

I'm pretty sure that they are, BUT there's a slight chance I'm wrong.

i really really like this guy in my grade. he's completely hilarious and he always makes me have a good time when i'm around him. i want to tell him i like him so that he will ask me out. i'm almost positive he likes me. there are so many different signs i cant evem list them. do you still think i should tell him? or wait and not bother?

Just tell him.

if your a vegetarian or vegan can you eat eggs? my personal opinion is that you shouldnt because it was once living (sorta). but is it REALLY considered living. i dont know. please help. im confused lol

If you're a Vegan, no. You cannot eat anything made from an animal. Eggs are made from chickens, so you would not be able to eat them.

However, if you're a vegetarian, then maybe.

Okay so im failing 2 classes. And im on the waiting list for summer school.Does anyone think i will get on? If someone else doesnt go.....im in the 8th grade bye the way.

Why is there a waiting list? Anyways, yeah, they should let you in.

Okay I know what a blow job is and everything.

But what do most guys like you to do when youre giving them one?
How long do they usually last?

Feel free to include anything else.

It depends on the guy.
