i love american eagle,
recently i just bought a pair of jeans that i love, except now that i wear them i notice i didnt buy the stretchy kind. they are amazzzzinly stiff
how do i make them stretchy!?

They will never actually become stretchy, since they're not the same material. However, the more you wear them, the more they will form to your body and the more comfortable they will become. If you squat down while you're wearing them, or start to go into the splits, that will strech them for the day that you are wearing them. Over time, they will become more worn, and more to your liking.

im a senior in high school and have never done sports before. should i try out for the field hockey team? or do i need previous experience for it?

Definitely try out! What do you have to lose? Nothing! And if you don't, you'll always wish you would have, and wonder what would have happened. Talk to the coach and tell him or her that you are planning on trying out and ask for some pointers. Then, if you have any friends on the team, or even know someone on the team, ask them to teach you the basics. Worst thing that can happen is you won't make it, and that's no big deal. I hopey ou go for it! And good luck!

today i looked and my underwhere had a brown stain where the vagina or your period comes out. it was a dark color....kinda brown.......is this really my period???

i dont think its crap or anything( lol ) but, im 13/f, so could it be my period?

Yes, this is your period. Sometimes your period starts slowly or ends slowly, and since this is your first one, this is probably the case. What's happening is a little bit of blood is showing up in your discharge and making it brown. You might want to look into panty liners or pads if it's flowing heavy so you don't ruin your underwear.

i can sleeep all day and not wake up
&& im loosing to much hairr


wat kind of "disease" is this?

or is it one?


13/f if that helps

No one on here will be able to tell you exactly what is wrong. Those are symptoms that can be the sign of many different problems. You really need to see a doctor to figure out what it could be. The sooner you go, the better, because, while it could be nothing serious, it could also be something that needs to be caught. Good luck, and please, see a doctor. Your health is important, take care of it!

My boyfriend and I are on a break until next Wednesday so we can get back to the way we used to be and actually get a chance to miss eachother. I usually talk to him before I go to sleep at night and I wake him up every morning.I just can't sleep if I don't talk to him before bed or see him. I cry non stop :(

What can I do to lessen the pain until Wednesday? He's all I think about and I miss him so much it hurts.

This may not be what you want to hear, but sounds like a break will do you good. You sound a little dependant on him. I know how it feels to miss someone a lot, trust me I do. However, you know that Wednesday it will all get better, so take comfort in that and stick the break out. Plus, it'll be that much sweeter when you do see him =)

How do I tell the guy in my class that I like him?

When you guys are in conversation, tell him you think he's really funny/cute/interesting/amazing/etc. then ask him if he'd be interested in going out sometime. Keep it light, if you make it a serious conversation, it'll be worse if he says no. If he does say no, just blow it off and say okay, that's cool. Then keep talking to him, but change the subject. Act like it was no big deal.

do your breast get bigger if you rub them?

Nope.

The only way to make your breasts bigger once they've stopped growing is to gain weight or get implants.

whats anal sex?

When you put the penis in the butthole instead of the vagina.

That's what people mean when they say butt sex or do it up the butt.

What are some good topics for a persuasive speech? Please, nothing too complicated because I only have 5-10 minutes to deliver my speech.

Thanks in advance!;)

You could do a popular topic, such as why people should be pro life or pro choice for abortion. You could do whether gay marriage should be allowed or not. You could do pro/anti fur. Death penalty or life in prison. Or, you can talk about why a rule in your school or law in your town does not make sense.

every once in awhile my friends and i go out to drink...however i always gain weight after this becuase alcohol has sooo many cals and carbs.....what are some drinks i can buy ( and mixers) to not put on the pounds?

Light beer and Bacardi Island Breeze. You can also go for a screwdriver, which has a lot less calories than a lot of other drinks.

how do i make my eyeliner stay put

Clinique makes a really good cream eyeliner that you put on with a brush. It stays put no matter what. I love it. It's 14 dollars a pot, but the pot will last you foreverrrr. It's worth the money.

If that's not an option, try liquid liner =)

hi so im a freshmann, and i was just curious about like homecoming. do freshman really go? and like if they dont have dates, do people still go? i mean, im not sure if ill have one or not. im not ugly or anything, its just im new to the school. ive met alot of cool people, but eh. i dont know.

any advicee will help.

Yes, freshman go.

And, as for the date thing? In my school, it doesn't really matter if you have a date or not. A lot of people go with friends. It's not like prom at all, where everyoneeeeeee has a date. At homecoming, you dance with everyone, and if you have a date, most of the time you don't stick with them. It's my favorite dance, it's so fun. I think I almost prefer no date for homecoming actually, because if you have a date, you constantly have to worry about if they're having fun or making sure they don't think you're ditching them. If you go dateless, then you don't have any worries, and you're free to dance the night away =)

okay, im a sophmore in high school.
& i havent done ANYTHING with a guy.
I mean, i've kissed but not madeout.
I dont know what is wrong.
Everyone askes me if ive kissed a guy before & i say yes, but im lying. & I dont want to lie about something stupid anymore. There isnt a particular question but any advice will help.
Thankss.


Aw, don't worry about it. Seriously, you're not as far behind as you think. Do you think you're the only one lying about it? Probably not. You aren't a late bloomer. It'll happen for you, I promise. Just wait it out. Don't rush anything because then it won't be any fun. Do it for you, not to make yourself look better. And try to avoid lying about it anymore. Once again, you shouldn't feel ashamed. You're perfectly normal!

I have a really huge fear of showing up in the same dress as someone and it happened last year! I know it's almost impossible to find a dress that 600 other girls won't wear but I want to get one at a unique store. Not Macy's, JC Penney, Kohl's, Jessica McClintock, or Windsor. I just want to know some stores with good dresses.

Thanks.

I don't know what stores are in your area, so I can't help you out there. But if you go to a store that sells strictly formal dresses, such as David's Bridal, they usually will register your dress, meaning they won't let anyone else from your school buy your dress. Just look up dress shops in the yellow pages to see what's in your area.

Now, you can try online, however, you won't be able to register your dress, so if you get one that is available in dress shops (a lot of them are, trust me) you won't have a promise that no one will have it.

Good luck =)

Okay, I am know good at fashion, So I have come to my fellow Advicentors for help.
What looks better Blow drying your hair or Just letting it dry?

If you are going to straighten your hair, neither matters, however, my hair is easier to straighten if I blow dry it.

If you are going for curly/wavy hair, definitely let it air dry. Blow drying it will probably make it frizzy.

If you want straight hair, but you aren't going to straighten it, blow dry it with a round brush. You can let it air dry if you have naturally straight hair though.

Good luck =)

i know i can ask the people at the salon, but i have a squareish face and a smallish forehead. dont get me wrong, im not a circus clown. haha
in your opinion, would side bangs look weird on my head shape? i wont rate you low if you say no, but if you have a similar head shape, tell me whatcha think
XD

I think side bangs look good on everyone. However, certain face shapes will look better with different lengths. I'm sure side bangs will look great on you, just have the person cutting them start off by cutting them long. Then look in the mirror and see if that length fits you. If not, ask them to go a little shorter. Remember, you can always go shorter, but once they're too short, you have to wait for them to grow.

Good luck =)

what exactly is an orgasm and how do you get it ?

An orgasm is the peak of sexual excitement, involving extreme feelings of pleasure. There is series of contractions of the genital muscles, usually accompanied by the ejaculation of semen by the male.

does it hurt getting your nose pierced? does it make your nose appear bigger or smaller? around how much does it cost? thanks im just wonderingg =]

I got mine done over spring break. It didn't hurt at all. I mean, of course you feel it, but it's nothing unbearable. It doesn't make your nose look any bigger or smaller. Mine cost 30 dollars for the piercing, and 9 dollars for the H2Ocean cleaning spray.
