Hey the name is Brina, sounds like Sabrina without the Sa. I'm a sax major, and have been playing for 12 years. I've been on this site for a few years now, and just made a new profile because I forgot my other username.I'd say I know a lot about life, and love giving advice on life. So please feel free to ask me anything. If you don't want to ask a question on my page, email me!

I was the only one who did not pass the exam at school,I felt like I was a a complete j**k,I'm feeling awful,and very sad,I don't feel like coming over to school again,please,help
This should help you strive for a better grade next time! Don't worry about being the only one to not pass it, it happens. Some people are better at things than others. Just try to stay confident in your studies and if anyone gives you a hard time tell them to mind their business. Try making flash cards for your next exam, they help a lot! Stay positive! Hope I helped!

I have a slight crush that used to be a huge crush but my friend told him I like him even though she had no clue then embarrased me about it. My crush I rarely talk and it never lasts long. Today in school he turned around in his chair because I was behind him and looked at me and I stared back at him for probably 5 seconds, the only reason I looked away was because the movie we were watching made a funny, loud noise. The weirdest thing though was I am usually embarrased around him and shy and my face would turn red but I looked in his eyes with confidence and my face didn't turn red. Do you think this means anything at all? Thanks!
It means you know what you want, and were just reacting to what he was doing. If he was looking at you for a while, then you have every right to look back! Definitely talk to him, and see what happens from there. Hope I helped! Good Luck!

I'm a 13 year old girl. I like this guy from school. At first we started off real close friends and then I told him that I liked him. He said he only liked me as a friend and began avoiding me from then on. He began seeing another girl and I'm really confused and hurt. After school he avoids me as well. We live on the same street and every time when he's outside and sees me playing basketball he'd go back home and pull down the curtains. And also at school, when I'm sitting in the cafeteria near where he and his mates are sitting, they'd go and find another spot. I really like him, and I suppose he just thinks I'm being stupid.
Any advice available?
Well, if he doesn't like you then there isn't much you can do about it. Unfortunately, he is being immature about the whole situation, unlike you who is being mature. Boys at your age are very silly. Just try and focus on other things for now, and a new guy will show up I'm sure. You have many years to find someone to date! Hope I helped!

I'm trying to get a head start on planning my nephew's 18th birthday party. I want this party to be extra special because his home life hasn't been good, but since he's turning 18, he can finally move in with me. I'm trying to come up with a theme that will represent his new found freedom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I found a few ideas you might consider.
1. Water Gun Party, buy a bunch of water guns and let your nephew and his friends attack.
2. Lazer Tag, no one is too old for lazer tag!
3. If he likes sports you can have a sports theme
4. If he likes music you can have a bunch of different music stuff going on
5. A BBQ
Hope I helped!

22/f going to a housewarming on the weekend. It starts midday having a BBQ and goes until midnight. After that either go home or go clubbing. I have absolutely no idea what to wear. Any suggestions? I don't want to be overdressed but also not underdressed. Ps it is hot where I live.
Definitely wear a sundress with a sweater to the bbq with sandals or wedged heels, but then take the sweater off and put on some pumps for the club! Hope I helped!

Here is my current situation. I am a 20 year old female, been in my current relationship for 3 years with a girl I fell head over heals for, I never knew I was bisexual until I met her, she was so nice and caring towards others, she made me laugh all the time and she taught me a lot about life, she is my best friend and i love her very much. Just before we started dating I was getting out of a 4 year on and off relationship with my high school love (boy). We had the typical break up make up relationship until I left him for her. I have been thinking about how my life would be if I never jumped straight into a relationship with someone just before I graduated high shool. Her and i have been living together for about 2 years. She hates my family because a few of them had a "meeting" about how they didn't want us to be together because she has no aspirations but they still try to get along with her, she wont come around, so for the past year I have hardly seen any of my family in fear of her being upset. I physically cannot take the stress anymore. About a week ago I tried to break up with my girlfriend, she wasnt having it and tried to overdose on pills, begged for me back. So I did. I now live pretty much everyday thinking why I did that. I love her very much but we argue so much about the littlest things and we never have sex. I feel like the past 7 years I have never gotten to do what I want because I have been with another person. It's not that i don't want to be with her anymore, it's that I am wondering what it is like to have my own life. I don't know how to break it off clean with her and leave things okay between us. Here's the catch.. She is from another state and has no family where I live , no one to rely on if I leave her. I feel so bad and I love her so much that's one of the reasons I let myself be unhappy, she has no money saved up to go home by yet if I break up with her I may as well be handin her a ticket and saying goodbye forever. She is my best friend. I don't want her out of my life, I just want to have my own. How do I break it clean?
You need to do what's best for you. I know, that sounds selfish, but, it's your life, and if you aren't happy then she needs to respect that. Tell her exactly how you feel, and that you love her no matter what, but that you don't want to be in a relationship with her. If she does try and overdose, it's not your fault. She might need to seek out some professional help. You can't keep trying to make others happy, you need to make yourself happy. In situations like these, you can't always stay close with the person you broke up with, but in time you might be able to. So keep your head up, and do what's best for you. Hope I helped, good luck.

on saturday night i asked out a very sweet girl from my school, thinking she was very innocent. Her random drug test this morning came back positive for many different narcotics. I am a sensible person who will never go near drugs, and quite afraid of this date with this girl. I want to go out with her, just don't know what to do with her situation.
Well, since you already planned a date with this girl I say you should go on it. If she talked to you about her drug test and the details, then you have every right to talk to her about it because she made it your business by telling you. It is very hard to be with someone that does drugs because 1. You don't agree with the choice, and 2. You don't want to start because she is. So, go on the date, and just let her know you'd like to just be friends because she's in a different place in life than you are. You need to do whats best for you! Good Luck, Hope I helped!

I have an 18year old bro,I'm a little older than he,so basically my biggest cocern is that he has no clue about what he's going to do with his life,he's not sure whether to carry on studying or getting a job,he's just so lost,I don't know how to help him because to make matters even worse,he's always in a bad mood,so it's really hard to everynoe of us,I mean my family and I to talk to him,thanks!ps( it'd be great to read 18 or 17year old people,thanks in advance!)
Him always in a bad mood is going to be a bit tricky. But, my advice is to try and take him out for ice cream, or lunch, or somewhere the two of you can be alone. At this time in his life, like many others, he's confused about what he want's to do. The main thing you can do is to let him know that your always there for him, and support him fully. At that age, which I'm sure you know, is a very hard time, with graduation and all that coming up. So, just take him out somewere, and let him know you'll be there for him always. Hope I helped!

alright so... i don't have the best skin. it's oily as hell. and the pimple... i'm not worried about that it's the blackheads. the makeup i use doesn't cover them nor the bumps they have NOR the holes they leave when i pull them out. and i'm not sure what to try now. i mean i'm cheap so i use drugstore, walmart type store makeup like maybelliene and covergirl... but i've been looking at MUFE, MAC, Smashbox, and other stuff...
but before i buy them i want to be sure they'll work because they are so expensive. so if you know any makeup good for covering blackheads or can find out some.. or even can find me a good article on this or a internet makeup tutorial please tell me.
and don't give me a lecture on how makeup won't help it, i'm not a retard i know that. but i would appreciate the help, not a LECTURE.
I know of the perfect foundation for you! It's called Palladio Dual Wet & Dry Foundation. It's only about 8 bucks too. It helps a lot because it's wet and dry, and it doesn't make your skin look oily. It also doesn't make you break out anymore. It covers everything, and you don't need to put too much on. What I normally do is put that on, and then a little bit of bronzer POWDER to give it some pizzazz. As for the oilyness, just to give you a tip on that, buy a face scrub and use some face soap and gently rub all over your face with warm water, it should help quite a bit. Good Luck, hope I helped!

please read all and carefully, thankyou. my parents got divorced 2 years ago. im 14/f i have 4 other siblings. the problem is that when they got divorced my older sis took sides with my mom and my older bro took sides with my dad. My sister and brother were best friends, until this. Now my other older brother, me, and my younger brother are just hanging in the middle not taking sides. I go to therapy and it has been helping, but i have not been on any anti-depressants or anything not that i want to. My sister never really had a relationship with my dad to begin with so i don't mind her not talking to him. As for my older brother he won't talk to my mom (this is the brother who took sides with my dad) and they were very close also, and as i said he wont talk to my sister. it is all so complicated. my brother has been to therapy with me once. and he thinks it is horrible that i am in the middle and my little brother as well. he told me about 2 years ago, (my parents got divorced in 2010 but the fighting has been happening since 09) that i could come talk to him at any time about anything. he is 24. i know what i would say, i even wrote him a letter for my own purpose just to put it on paper what i would say. but the thing is i am a really tough girl, i speak my mind, but the last 3 years have made me feel like shit-lonely, depressed, angry, grief, etc. so i kind of held my feelings in. i feel like if i talked to him it would be best. because then he would see how much i've been hurting. i would just be telling him how i feel. not attacking him at all just how it's affecting me. i really dont think he would get defensive, i think he would be somewhat surprised that im this sad. and he would say im sorry, i know its bad, but i don't think anythig will change. So now that this has all happened it has turned me into an insecure person. So my therapist said, just tell him, i think he will understand, and even if nothing changes between him and your sister or your mom at least he knows how you really feel. and i said i know but i feel like if he reacted like wow omg im so sorry and changed i would feel great. but even if he said i know im sorry but i don't see things changing i would feel even more insecure and helpless because he doesn't know this insecure, vulnerable side of me and i just revealed it and then i would feel so stupid. i dont know anymore. i feel like im going to burst. it's like im non-stop pmsing for 3 years straight. i get mad at people for no reason, i get bursts of loneliness, i feel like a sad clown. total opposite person before this. everyone has seen a change in me.i've lost friendships, i dont even hang out with friends becasue this is on my mind all the time, i gain weight, lose weight, there was even a point when i was losing a lot of hair. i would have panic attacks at the most random times just from seeing a happy family. other things happened that i wont say but it was bad. right now compared to a year ago im much better but still dealing with what i just said. also now that the've gotten divorced my dad will ask what time to pick me up i say 2 pm or whatever then i tell my mom and she gets mad at me because he is supposed to be talking to her directly. and i agree and my therapist too so i tell him that and he says no im not doing it, i dont want to have any contact with her. so im the one getting involved. they get mad at me if something happened between them. my mom says don't get involved but she tells me things about the divorce, court, and even showed me hurtful texts my brother texted her. there was a point last year when i got so frustrated with them both that i put all the blame on my dad when it was both their faults and just said in a very mean hurtful attacking email i dont want to see you anymore, because he was the easiest person to put the blame on. and i ended up talking to him again 6 monthes later and now we are "fine" seeing each other once a week, sun. we have not discussed that email because it is so ugly to me i dont even want to bring it up, i regret sending it. i need to talk to brother, but their are so many emotions running through me. one other BIG thing that came up was that my great uncle just died and i dont even know if my brother knows about it. i had never met him nor my other siblings too, but it was very sad becasue now his sister, my grandma, is the last one alive out of their family, she is 85 so is my grandpa. and my brother hasnt seen them in 3 years. but my grandpa called him up and said he wants to see him, but my brother said i can't it would be too difficult, he is just as hurt as i am. SOOOOO, becasue my grandparents are so old, the fact the my grandma's brother died just brought back feelings and made me sad because i thought what if god forbid one of my grandarents died and my brother never talked to them he would feel guilty, and would make me feel guilty for not talking to him earlier about how i feel. my therapist agreed. that just added 10 more tons on my back. can someone please tell me what i should do, and how i should go about it. i, when having a confrontation, or having a serious converstion, like to talk in person, but i live in NJ and he lives across the country. the only time i will get to see him is the summer/spring. if i decide to talk to him i want to do it soon before we go on vacation. so i was thinking, even my therapist said that if i bring it up that oh did you know our great uncle died? oh really? then i could go into about how i feel about him and my grandparents and that guilt that i just talked about. then slowly about him and my sister and my mom. im just nervous, but therapist is convinced that i should. i know i need to. i think im just scared, and i dont want to admit it to him. this whole thing has affected my friendships, family, school, social life, soccer. everything and it sucks. any advice is helpful. thankyou and thankyou for reading this whole thing. i know it seem confusing for you, which it probablly is, but for me, it's 10x worse. thankyou!
Wow, I'm so sorry you have to go through all of this! Right now, the best thing you need to do is take care of yourself. Try not to let all these things get you down, and don't think that they are right when telling you not to get involved. If they're going to talk to you about t he divorce, then that's involving you and you need to tell them that. Don't be scared to talk to your dad I think you meant? He loves you no matter what. You need to do whats best for you, and only help out in little ways. This is something you and your parents need to handle themselves. Try and stay strong, and think positive. Hope I helped a bit!

Hi(male and gay,26),well I'm a self-confident 26 year old gay boy,I'm very happy with who I am and the way I am as well,I have a boyfriend,even though he says to love me with all his heart,he hasn't presented me to any of his relations yet and we've been dating for over two years now,I'm like his secret relationship,nobody who knows him knows anything about me,not even a cousin of his,what can I do?Because I know for a fact that he really loves me and so do I,but I would like a true relationship,I mean I'm not a criminal,I'd like to adopt children in the future,to live in our very own house and even to get married one day,but he keeps saying that those are privileges that are meant to be for straight relationships,I know I should dump him,but I love him very much,it sucks!I wish I didn't,thanks in advance;)
It seems like your boyfriend is afraid. Afraid of being gay, and I might be totally wrong. The only thing you can do is accept his feelings, or to not and break up with him. Everyone is different, as you know, but if you feel like you can't see you two making a legit future with him, then that's not good. At your age, you know what you want. Good Luck, hope I helped!

I have liked this guy since the end of my freshman year, more like off and on. I'm a senior right now. He's 19, he actually turned 20 today, and in college far away. I'll give you the whole story..sorry for it being long..
We've been good friends since then. I've been around him a lot since I'm best friends with his sister.
When I was a sophomore, he and I were close. I'd talk to him about everything and he'd help me with bf problems.
My junior year, I liked him a lot. We told each other we liked each other but he didn't know what to do cause he was going to college in the spring. We never really talked about it and then I got with another guy. He was angry, ect. But at that point I thought he wasn't interested in me anymore. Well I spent the night at my best friends house, and he and I had a moment and ended up making out..soo yeah.
Well eventually he left, we got in a fight over the phone, stopped talking for about 2 months, then he texted me and apologized.
He came back and we started up where we left off. Then he went back to college.
Okay..soo I miss him. We've been texting and he said he missed me, ect.
Guys like physical things. That's pretty much all we were except we talked all the time. I'm sure there were feelings there somewhere but it was a confusing friendship.
I always liked him but I'd keep it cool and act like it was nothing.
A couple weeks ago he texted me and we were talking. Somehow the subject came up about us and where we stood. I told him I'm not really into messing around anymore. He understood. At some point he asked why I couldn't see myself with him. I told him we wanted different things. He said he wants more than just physical things and told me he wished he dated me instead of just messing around.
I've dreamed of him being mine for a very, very long time. I don't know how to believe him. I feel like since I won't mess around with him that he won't come around and he's just saying that stuff. He is a good guy but I don't want to be fooled by all that. I'm graduating this year and I am going to that college.
I don't know what I'm supposed to do or what I'm supposed to say. I don't have the guts to ask him what's happening with us. Do you think he means what he says?
Sorry for the length. Thank you :)
If he said that he doesn't only want physical things, and talks to you a lot about non physical things then it seems to me like he's in it for real.
Test out the waters, and see if you two can try something for a little while. It'll be a while until the summer before he comes home. If you're nervous to ask him what's happening with you two, wait for him to bring it up again. But, if I were you, i'd say, "hey can we talk about you saying you wished you'd date me." etc. If he really cares about you, he won't think it's weird or anything talk about it. Seems like he does care about you, and you def care about him. Good Luck, hope I helped!

12/F Ok well I've asked a question about this before about me not wanting to have sex with my boyfriend and well I kinda took the advise until a few weeks ago:(it was his birthday and we were at his house in his bedroom and then we were playing truth or dare I got dared to have sex with him...infront of everyone!so well I said no at first but then everyone got mad so I said yes and well we did! And now I have missed my period and I'm gettin symptoms of pregnancy and I don't know what to do! Help please! I hate myself for doing it!I feel like such a slut!
Just try and relax. You are not a slut, but you do need to pick better friends. For them to peer pressure you is not cool. You shouldn't feel like you have to have sex, especially at your age. I highly recommend you wait at least a few years before even thinking about having sex again. But, to each there own. Definitely go to a doctor ASAP, if you go to plan parenthood, they won't contact your parents. Just, think twice about the people you hang out with, including your boyfriend. Good luck sweetie, hope I helped!

I have an issue. One of my close friends who I've known for many years isn't being very...smart, per say. She hurts me and our other friends mentally and physically, and she makes terrible choices on purpose. She's refused to let our other friends and myself help correct her bad behavior and downhill lifestyle for over a year. I kept persisting, but now I think I'm wasting my time if I keep trying. Should I try to keep helping or leave her on her own?
That really isn't fair that she's treating you all that way. She might be going through something at home which is making her act out the way she does. It's great that you are trying to help her, but their is only so long you can try. Sit her down, let her know you don't like the way she's treating you, which you've probably already done, and tell her you won't be sticking around if she continues it. Also, you might want to talk to a counselor at school and inform them on her behavior, because she really might be having a lot going on that you guys don't know about. You can stay anonymous when you talk to the Counselor, so that your friend doesn't find out. Hope I helped!

Hello i had sex with my boyfriend like 2 weeks ago
And I have not gotten my period we use 2 condoms but they did not break
Or rip or anything he did not get any of his sperm on me because it did not come out
And I had to jack him off to do that to come out and I have not gotten my period plZ help
If the condoms didn't break, and he didn't ejaculate inside of you then you should be fine. But, just in case, in about 2 more weeks, take a pregnancy test. Also, not sure if it's what you meant or not about 2 condoms, but, 2 condoms used at 1 time at the same time is not a good idea. The friction of both rubbing against each other can cause a tear in the condom. Good Luck hope I helped!

Okay well I'm 14 and not in a sexual relationship (why would I I'm 14). So I don't know if I should shave or just trim. Right now I trim but I'm half Italian and my hair grows fast down there. I've googled this to see more info and there's a huge controversy on the subject. You need hair down there because it helps keep out infections or something. Plus when you shave you look like a 7-year-old. Yet guys seem to like it shaved more. But, why is it the boyfriends or even some random guys' decisions on the matter. Shouldn't it be the women who choose. Also, from shaving the women get razor bumps and ingrown hairs. As you can see I really don't know what to do, so any ideas? Thank you.
Since your not sexually active right now [thank goodness], I highly suggest just trimming. You're correct about hair helping keep your lady part "healthy." When you do decide to be sexually active in a few years, hopefully MANY, you may choose to shave. Just get a shaving creme that is for sensitive skin, and take your time. Hope I helped!

So I am a 15 yeard old female, and I am bisexual. I am sure this is not some "phase". I have always had an attraction to girls, and this year I've felt that attraction even more.
Let's cut to it. I've told abou 10 of my friends that I am bi, and all of them have accepted it so far.
Basically, I have no problem coming out to the world as a bisexual, but it's my parents. They are very homophobic. And when I say very I mean extreamly. My dad hates andything related to LGBTQ, and my mom does too, but she has a bi friend.
What I'm basically asking is if you have any tips on how to come out to homophobic parents, or what I should do etc.
It's really great that you know who you are as a person and are proud of it. I am also Bisexual, and started coming out to friends about 2 1/2 years ago. And slowly told my mom and two sisters. My Dad still doesn't know. My advice to you is, that you don't need to rush telling your parents. It's not, "staying in the closet" it's just you doing you, to be the happiest you can be. The time will come when you feel that you should tell them. You shouldn't have to stress over your parents because of their feelings towards anyone of a different orientation from the "norm." Tips on how to come out, is to sit them down, and explain that you have been wanting to tell them because they mean so much to you, and that it would make you happier for them to know. They might not be happy at first, but eventually they should come around, because they love you no matter what. My mom still thinks it's a "phase" but you never know. Just take your time in telling them, and don't think you have to right away. Sorry for the wrong response, hope I helped :)
