Heyy! So I have a question. How do you tag where you are at on Facebook? For example..it might say Denise is at 'Walmart' and it'll be highlighted. I hope somebody knows what I'm talking about. I know how to tag people but not places. Also I mostly use Facebook mobile so that might help..Please help! Thanks (:

If you have the official FB app on your phone, then on the main page where it has "News Feed", "Profile" etc, and one of them will be "Places".
Go on there, and it'll list various names of locations around you like shop names or restaurants, then you just choose one that applies to your location and it'll take you to another page where you can add a comment or just submit it as your status.

If you're not on the FB app but just go on the browser on m.facebook.com, then right underneath the box where you would post a status, it says "check in", choose that and the rest will be the same as on the FB app.

I'm sure you'll figure it out :)

Is it weir for girls to like playing on like ps3's and play black ops or shit like that? Like i dont get why everyone has a problem with it

In all honesty, that view is really changing right now. There are so many gamer girls out there, without being even remotely geeky! Or just the girls who enjoy playing ps3, xBox etc without taking it so seriously, myself included.

Guys love if they can play on a console with a girl. My boyfriend adores that I will play xBox 360 with him, and I am actually capable of kicking his ass at Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6, Las Vegas.

Don't be put off by people commenting, they're being stereotypical. Just enjoy yourself ;)

Alright, so im a highschool soccer player and i just got my septum pierced the Tuesday after christmas. Well, soccer starts March 1st and i cant have any body piercings in. which hasnt been a problem because eyebrow and ears and nose can come out without closeing. but i dont know about my septum. I need to know where i can but a plastic/rubber septum ring or just a 16G plastic/rubber circular barbell or something that i can fit in there. or a custom place that can make a plastic or rubber one for me. it has to be able to fit ion my nose.
Unless you think i would be able to keep it out for 2-5 hours without it closing up. just for practices and games. I need tips on how to make it work. I'm willing to order offline, of course. and i really need this. Thanks a bunch!

Put this in, flip it upwards. It shouldn't cause any problems at all. Won't get hooked, and will not even be visible unless somebody stares up your nose.

I used one for years and it worked perfectly during sport practices.

:) If you have any more questions, just ask. I'm very knowledgeable in piercings.

--Just wanted to add, taking it out and putting it back in so often would cause irritation, so try not to mess with it. It'd get infected if you took it out for every practice and match and so on. Even if it is for a few hours. Retainer is so much better and safer.

It seems like it takes me FOREVER to get comfortable in bed enough to fall asleep. I mean, seriously, sometimes I'm awake for 2 hours tossing and turning trying to get in a comfortable position. It's really weird. I was wondering why this happens? Even when I'm already tired I just can't get in the right spot. Is this normal? Should I talk to a doctor? I know my dad takes forever to go to sleep too but because he has a bad back...do you think my back is messed up too maybe and I don't know it? :-\

It could be because your brain is still distracted from your daily life.
Before you go to bed, an hour or two earlier, start thinking to yourself "I'll go to sleep at 11pm" or whatever. At least half an hour before actually going to bed, or even earlier if possible, stop watching tv and get off your computer, because it will be distracting your brain with the bright lights, constant motion and new ideas. Instead, listen to soothing music on low volume, or read a book in bed.
This is a much more soothing way to go to sleep, and it really does help if you are calm, and you're not stressing your brain.

If they said it like "OH-GEE" then it's Original Gangster.
Otherwise, why don't you ask them..?

I was reading about some stuff on getting pregnant and a bunch of people were using ttc when they were responding to some forum postings. What does TTC stand for on the internet? Here is an example copy and pasted:

"My hubby & I have been TTC for 4 months & had the same prob. a couple weeks ago. BABY*DUST"

So I asked because he never answers my questions he at least texts me once a day for the past 2 weeks and he never tells me whats going on so i said '' well if this is how you are going to treat me , im done this isnt stable'' and hes like did you ever stop to think i was busy? someone i knew died today dajana i was just not in the mood to talk to anyone. the last thing i need right now is you bring insecure?
what does that mena?

It means that he doesn't need you being insecure about the relationship, doubting his feelings for you. Give it a break, people can't be happy and reply to every single text 24/7.
I'm pretty sure you yourself have those days where you don't want to talk to others.
Texting is not the key foundation to a relationship, so you shouldn't take it so seriously and attack him about it.
Hang out more with each other in person, that's the best part ;)

So im having my boyfriend of 7 months over. He usually comes to my house but only when friends are coming. We are both 16 andI want to avoid doing anything ill regret but im afraid he will get bored easy. What if its awkward? Im a little nervous. If hes coming during the daytime and we cant go anywhere what are some thinks we can do? I need advice pleassee and thank you!!

Well, if you've got a ps2, Wii, Xbox or anything similar, play on that. My boyfriend and I always end up playing games and we mess around, having fun.
Watch movies and cuddle, play Monopoly but make your own rules...
If you've got bikes in your house, go for a bike ride or similar. If you've got a trampoline- play on that.

Things should come naturally for you two, especially after being together for so long ;)

Hi i am fifteen years old and my boyfriend and i have just started performing oral sex. i gave him head today and we dry humped a lot. his penis is curved upwards so its easy to with clothes on. anyways, he was wearing underwear and jeans and i was wearing underwear and jeggings. i don't know if he cummed but he deff pre cummed in his underwear while we were dry humping. i straddled him a lot and then i laid down and he went on top of me and humped me a lot. again, his penis is curved upwards so like i could feel it in there but not completely becuase we wre wearing clothing. i thought that we were for sure good/protected cause of our clothes but i was changing into new sweats and i discovered a wet stain in the back of my underwear where my butt is and i freaked out jumped in the shower and scrubbed my vagina with a wash cloth with soap and i made sure that i washed my hands before. i then changed my underwear. is it possible for me to be pregnant because i really don't want to i'm only fifteen ten years ago i was five.. hahaha but a lot of people think it's just butt - cum if there is even such thing. no, he did not dry hump me from behind. my friends think that i was cumming and it dripped to the back or it came from my butt what do you think oh yeah and i've only ever gotten my period twice in my life. the first time was in jan. when i was 13 and the second time was a year later in jan when i was 14. do you think even if it did get in it would be harder for me to get pregnant because of how irregular i am? easy 5 points

You have nothing to worry about.
That stain was just from you- but not from your butt.
Females get wet too when they're in the mood.
Maybe it's a good idea to give yourself a basic sex-ed lesson before you get too intimate with your boyfriend?

gahhh my boyfriend is just acting like a huge meanie right now and it really irritates me!!

we've been dating for about 3 almost 4 months now and lets just say our past wasnt that great. i was super duper duper busy so everytime we made plans, i had to cancel on him. that didnt make him happy.

well last night we sorta had plans but my bff really needed to hang with me and talk with me (emergency) and so i was like- mike, i need to hang out with megan tonight. is that ok? and he goes- yeah thats ok.

so megan and i hang and talk and he didnt text me until just now and he doesnt seem himself. i asked him if he was mad and he said yes because i canceled on him yet again.

and now we are fighting and i said "mike, i asked you if it was ok if i cancelled and you said it was fine. why would you say that if its not ok??" and oiewhjwhirudjknseweiwfjkds idk what else to say. i'm just really irritated at him because he ALWAYS gets pissed about EVERYTHING. theres a ton of examples but i dont want to talk about them.

what do i do?? we broke up recently because i just couldn't handle all of the fights and i was so irritated and annoyed at him because he would get mad about things so easily. we decided to get back together and fix things.. but it doesnt seem like things are getting any better.. like just now. him getting mad at me for hanging out with my bff and i even asked him if it was ok and he said it was..

helppppp i'm soo annoyed and frustrated with him!!!!!

Maybe you should see it from his point of view for a moment. Of course he would say it's okay for you to hang around with your Best Friend, because he knows that had he said "No, it's not okay" then you would've freaked out anyway, and got mad at him.
You say you've cancelled on him for a week now- how do you think he feels? Neglected, probably. I don't think you'd be very happy either if he continuously cancelled on you for a week. You'd be there, probably getting mad at him.
Stop being so self-centered for a moment, and see things the way he does. He's not getting mad at you on purpose- it's because you're inflicting it.
I know this might sound mean, but that is exactly the idea I get from your question.
Make a little effort, and spend time with him as soon as you can, and don't cancel it. He deserves some attention too, he is after all your boyfriend.

hello im 19 and last night during the middle of the night i woke up with terrible like knee pain. its hard to describe. i was sleeping on my side and my knees were bent a little. i went to straighten my legs out and it hurt sooo bad! the only thing i can compare it to is if you lay on your arm in the middle of the night and you wake up and its hard to move cuz the circulation was cut off.. it was like that but 10 times worse! it has never happened before and it kind of scared me. i dont have any leg or knee problems. does anybody know what this could have been from or if you can cut circulation off in your legs by laying on your side? i always sleep like this and like i said it has never happened before. thanks for your help!

It could simply have been a cramp. If it happens again, I'd suggest going to the doctor.
Otherwise, it might be one of those really rare cramps that you get once, and never again.
I've had something similar happen to my knee too.
Just keep track of it happening again.
Hope all is fine :)

Is Barbizon a good company? Like is it not a scam? I have to choose to either go there or not. What are the pros and cons of becoming a model? I dreampt of becoming a model ever since I was little but I was involved in scams. I'm 15/f now =]

Google is your answer.
I looked around and they're not a scam, but they only train you and it is very expensive.
They don't assist you in getting a modelling contract itself.

so i've been snowboarding for awhile and i've gotten pretty good. i'm looking for a new snowboard but i don't really know much about them. the one i've been using is an airwalk or something its not good at all. i would rate myself higher-intermediate. i like all mountain and i'm working on some freestyle stuff too. so i;'d like a snowboard that's good for both. i'm also 5'4" 18 female if that matters. i'm looking at solomon ones right now. can someone help me out? like that size i would need and what snowboard do you think is good for me thank you :)

I know this isn't exactly what you're wanting as an answer, but the only way you'll get a perfect snowboard if you go to a shop where they sell them, ask an assistant to help you, and you'll get everything you need.
I did the same thing last year. Although I didn't buy it from that shop, the assistant helped me find the right size board, appropriate make for my boarding style and so on.
Really, it's very useful, and they are always happy to help :)

TMI ALERT | TMI Alert | TMI Alert

When I was a kid I guess I was kind of scared of the toilet. It sounds stupid now but my dad had joked about the potty monster and I guess I was just scared. I used to hold my poo in for a very long time to avoid having to stay in the bathroom for awhile.

I'm almost 16 now and I'm not afraid of the toilet but I still hold it in a lot. I go maybe once every week and a half but I have gone as long as 1 whole month without pooping. It's like when I try to go now it just won't come out.

I'm not sure if I should like talk to a doctor about this or what. I guess this isn't normal but I dont know if it's dangerous or harmful to hold poop in. It makes my bowels like hard or something so it's painful. I'm afraid I screwed something up when I was a kid by holding it all the time. I've never seen blood in my stool but it definitely does NOT feel right

You should definitely go see a doctor.
Right now would be a good time to try and help yourself, before something *could* go very wrong.

They can help you make your bowel movements more regular, and healthy.

I wanted to be put on birth control pills and I went to my doctor like suggested. He gave me the pills and explained about them but said I needed to be on them for at least 1 full month before they became completely effective and I don't end up pregnant. When I asked here before somebody said they are effective immediately. I told my doctor that somebody said they were effective immediately and slightly laughed and was like I hate how teens get these stupid rumors and something like that's how so many girls wind up pregnant. Who is right? My doctor or you guys?

Your doctor is right. Really, would you expect the teenage population to be right, rather than your doctor? ;) I think not.
