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.

advice

So i'm a teenage girl, and I haven't really had a boyfriend since september. I have a pretty face and pretty red hair, but I still can't find a boyfriend.

I was just rejected by 2 people in a row. I feel like I just can't win when it comes to relationships- it always ends up ending before it really begins. What I'll do is I'll plan to get together with someone on myspace (who is always a friend of a friend that i know in person- never a complete stranger) and he'll seem all interested in me- then we'll plan a date: and either I'll go and he won't call, or he'll break the date altogether.

This makes me really really sad and depressed. And I don't know why- but I am not capable of feeling truly happy while being single. I'm actually on the verge of suicide every time I'm single and feeling unloved. I don't really have any friends- at least none that I ever get to see outside of school (exept for talking online). I'll admit- I'm homeschooled and my life really exists only on the internet.

When I go out in public I feel weird- like the only real person in a world full of cartoon people (if that makes sense).

People say I always look depressed all the time, and it's because I am. But I can't really control my facial expression- it's just the way it is. Whenever I try really hard not to show that I'm depressed and I'm smiling- people give me weird looks.

I don't like my life, and I really don't know what's wrong with me.

Why is it that nothing makes me happy unless I'm in a relationship?

You're just lonely. Find yourself some friends. Although you're homeschooled, it shouldn't be hard. I'm sure there are kids your age who live in your town or your neighborhood that you could be friends with.

Don't kill yourself because of being single. It's not worth it. I don't know how old you are, but boys are not everything, and you need to realize that. The sooner you do, the better.

Don't let this get you down. You're just giving yourself a stupid reason for sadness. You shouldn't let this bother you. There is nothing wrong with being single. Look at it this way, there is no one to piss you off, no one to get mad when you do things you wanna do, and no one to hold you back.

i have constant suicide thoughts and know i must be checked into a hospital i went to crisiskids.com or whatev. and they didnt understand im seriously considering this. im 13 years old, female. i feel like im not wanted here, and no one even cares anymore. i constantly fight with my mother and father and sisters. how can i get the medical help i need before i seriosly kill myself.

Life is hard, trust me on that. HOWEVER, life WILL get better. It will not always be shitty. Life is what you make of it. If you make it crappy, then it'll be crappy. If you think positively & try to do positive things, life will be good to you & it'll be wonderful.

Basically, you need to sit down your parents/sisters & talk to them normally. Try not to argue with them. By talking to them, you could possibly work things out & make them better for yourself & everyone else. I'm pretty sure they hate arguing with you as much as you hate arguing with them.

If you're seriously thinking about this though, find someone to take you there. Get your parents to take you. Even though you may hate them, they'd probably be willing to get you help if you just asked for it.

ok you on chat. you just say hey..

Because of the way he/she replied doesn't make them fake, just that they were rude about it. Don't take it too harshly.

The other day I was babysitting with my cousin, and one of the kids ran out of the house and we lost him for a while! We were so scared and the child's mother was very angry with us. Luckily, we found him. I just was asked to babysit my mom's friend's kids, but I'm really scared that I'll lose the kid again! HELP!

Although his mother has the right to be upset with you, it's partly not your fault. You can't control someone from getting up & going away. Kids usually tend to do things like that & just do dumb things. She should also be upset with her son for doing that. It's not all your fault.

Basically, just chill out. It probably won't happen again. Just keep the doors locked, don't let anybody you don't know into the house & make sure the kids are having fun. Keep your eye on them as well.

Our math teacher grades REALLY hard. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this question, but there are only 3 questions on the assignment, so if I get one wrong that's automatically a 66%. I know this sounds really stupid, but can you guys check to make sure I'm right on this problem?

In an experiment, the probability of picking a red cube out of a bag is 1. Which of the following describes a probability of 1?

Certain
Likely
Not likely
Impossible

I think the answer is either certain or likely, which one do you think is right? Thank you.

It's certain.

Ok I have a flat stomache but whne I eat liek breakfast or a meal my stomache is big like a chubby or fat kid's.

Well my grad is coming up and I'm wondering if I should eat after the grad or eat before it anyway.

Should I wear a tight dress or a loose one for my tummy then?

When your stomach looks that way, you may have eaten too much. Try to eat smaller meals.

Don't stop eating because once you start back up you're going to gain a lot of weight. Also, not eating isn't healthy. You're going to burn fat, yes, but you're going to burn your muscle tissue first & you'll gain weight. Basically, just eat smaller light meals, walk a bit & drink water.

So, there's this guy... He's amazing =] I've been getting to know him and I really like him. I told my friend that I liked him a few days ago. He randomly told her the other day that he's starting to get feelings for me, and she told him that I liked him too and he was really happy and we've been talking and so it's all good. The thing is, I barely see him... I see him maybe once a day, not even. But I talk to him all the time like for hours about everything. Tomorrow we're going on a fieldtrip and he's going to, i want to hang out with him but I don't know we kind of have different crowds and I'm worried he might ignore me, you know? I really have no clue what's going to happen tomorrow. What I'm asking is, how can I make it so that I DO hang out with him tomorrow... I really want to, but I'm pretty shy. Any tips? =] Thanks.

If he really likes you, he won't ditch you, ignore you or act different when you're around when him his crowd is there. Same as you wouldn't do that to him.

If he does do it to you, he probably doesn't realize it & you need to talk to him about it. If you're going to talk to him tonight, ask him if he wants to hang out at the field trip. Chances are he'll want to.

Good luck.

You know how in movies where cops or some other martial arts guy makes someone pass out by pinching a spot in there neck? Are they killing them or making them pass out? And is that even possible without long term injury?

It depends on how hard they do it. I mean, you can press it & they might pass out, but if you press it hard enough I'm pretty sure you can die.

So it could be either one. As for your third question, I doubt it..

Okay. For about a year and a half now, there's this guy I've had a HUGE crush on--I've never liked someone THIS MUCH. Anyway, I was talking to him on the phone and he ends up saying he met a girl at a track meet. Now he doesn't know I like him, we're friends. I faked a "That's great! Who is she?" as I punched the pillow on my bed. I was a little worried, but then he said he really liked her and was going to ask her out. And then what next? I practically died. I'm still happy for him though, because I want him to be happy, even if I'm not the one he likes. But it's been killing me. I don't want to tell him I like him--I don't think that would go very well. What should I do?

There are two things you can do here:

Option A: You get over it. He doesn't like you, and you can't do anything to change that. If he doesn't like you, then he doesn't like you. There's lots of guys out there & he's not the only one out there.

Option B: Tell him how you feel. If you told him how you felt about him, things may change for the good or for the worse. You won't know until you tell him though. If he doesn't happen to like you, then option A can still go into effect.

Good luck.

on mtv last night, right before the new episode of the real world, there was one of those commericals where mtv plays part of a song and shows part of the music video before a new show comes on. what was the name of the song that they played right before the real world last night, around 10:30ish. it was a guy singing, and the only part of the song i remember is "your fingertips" which could be tons of songs, so you had to have been watching the real world last night to know


thanks!

It was Vulnerable by Secondhand Serenade. Great song. =)

Change your age to 14.

I've been wondering if I was for awhile.. I have had boyfriends, and am definatly attracted to guys.. but I am also kinda attracted to girls to. I've kissed a few girls and.. when I masturbate (oh come on, everyone does it) I usually picture girls... I could see myself having a relationship with a girl too.. is this weird? Am I normal??

No it's not wierd, and yes you're normal. Lots of people in the world are bi-sexual [me included], and lots of people are homosexual. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with it, and whoever tells you otherwise should probably be shot.

If you think you may be bi-sexual, then keep searching for yourself. You won't know your sexuality for a while, and that's fine. Until you're positive you're bi-sexual however, don't state that you are indeed bi. There are lots of people who will jump on your ass about that, and that's the last thing you want.

When you finally do decide that you are, try out a relationship with a girl. If it doesn't work out, don't automatically assume that you're not bi anymore. The relationship may just have been a bad one & you need to try again with someone else. If you feel you're not bi because you're gay or straight, so be it.

The two hardest things about being bi/gay is that it takes you a while to figure it out. It's not something you know instantly. Another thing is coming out. People may not accept you, and they will put you down about it. People may want to hurt you because they think it's unethical & that you're a bad person. Your friends may not want to be friends with you anymore, and your parents may disown you. Lots of challenges come with this, so be prepared for it.

My boyfriends doggy got hit by a car, and got get leg broke. :[

He doesn't have any way to get it to the vet, and the vet won't even talk to him. Even though he is 22.

The leg is swollen and she can't move it.

What can he do to help her?

He should call another vet. If his vet is refusing to give him service, then he needs to tell her to go to hell & get a new vet.

k well ilike this guy i cant say his name and i have been waiting to go out with him for a long time becasue he keeps breaking up with his girl friend but everytime i get so close to doing that he ends up going back out with her and this is there like 5th time going back out and i dont even know if he likes me the same way i like him i am so caonfused right now its just so hard to get a boy friend around this school. the cool about him thow is that he is a skater omg he is way cute and im just one of those punker chicks that like to go to hot topic all the time it rules yeah but any what should i do the next time they break up? should i go for it? i dont know what to do well my class is almost over i have to jet by.

If they keep breaking up & getting back together; then you obviously need to leave him alone & forget about him no matter how cute he is. He's more than likely not interested in you because if he was, he'd be with you, right? Just the next time they break up, ask him out. If he happens to say no, don't sweat it. He's probably not worth your time & it's his loss. Besides, there's a lot of cute guys out there & by liking him & him only, you'll be missing out.

You could always just ask your parents. If your grandparents or great-grandparents are still alive, ask them. They love to talk, and they're usually lonely. Plus, they love to tell stories. =)

Okay so for the past 3 or 4 days.. i feel like i have to go to the bathroom ALL THE TIME. and i will go to the bathroom..then 5 minutes later i feel like i have to go again.. but i dont. ALSO when i stand up i feel like i have to go. but when i sit down..that feeling just dis appears... could this be something bad?? and what could it be???

You might have an overactive bladder. Constipation is when you CAN'T go potty even when you have to. Basically, just see a doctor because nobody here can diagnose you with something as we are not doctors nor professionals.

I want to put my writing in this format on my myspace about me:

Im ----
--------
--------

Sorry, that's hard to explain, but I mean, I would like it in the centre and to have spaces in my sentences, so a new sentence starts each line.
I typed it in like that but it came out all next to each other, like this:

Im ------------------------------------------. ----------------.----------------------------.
-----------------.

Does anyone know the html code to put my about me in the centre and start each sentence on a different line.

Thanks, xxx

The code for having it stacked like that is:


The code for having your text centered is:

i liked this guy for a long time and now i kinda over him. my friend likes him now and im all defensive. i cant talk to her cause i have a boyfriend. but idk if i like my boyfriend, but i just started going out w/ him today so i cant break up with him yet.. i went out with him cause we're friends and hes nice and hes like in love with me. i just dont feel the chemistry. this is my first boyfriend. im a wreck. i cant eat, think straight, etc.



xclueless

Even though you probably don't like your current boyfriend, give him a chance. It'll take more than a day to feel the chemistry if you're still friends & unsure of your feelings for him. If you go out for a while and still don't like him, then break up.

okay so theres this guy that i like alot.
&&i want to go out with him so badd !
but besidess that i think i'm in love with him.
how do you know when your in love?

thanks
--Ashley

You know you're in love when you can't stop thinking about them and it's all you wanna do. You wanna be with them constantly, and they amaze you with everything they do. You love their imperfections and their flaws, and you accept them.
