My boyfriend has just got texting, I have had texting every since the beginning of our relationship and he has just gotten it. Ever since he has known he was going to get texting he promised me that he wouldnt text any girls, or do anything or talk to anyone that would sacrifice our relationship or make anything worse. So the other day i was at his house and this girl texted him, (i have had problems with her before and dont get along with her) I asked him if he has been texting this girl and lying to me, he said he hasnt and this is the first time she texted him and i asked what she had said and what he replied back. All he told me was that she said Happy Thanksgiving and he replied saying thanks you too, bye. I had used his phone later that day, and had been texting his cousin, and i glanced through his messages and he had lied about her texting him that day, they had had a longer converstation than he had told me. So me with this situation was confused, and me and my friend took her phone and texted my boyfriend on her phone pretending to be another girl. SO many this would make me be able to trust him, seeing what he responded to "this girl." We said we wanted to hang out with him etc. And he did reply by saying he did have a girlfriend etc. He did tell me that this person texted him and he told me he had stopped texting her because she was stupid. But he didnt stop texting her. Eventually throughout the day he did have one of his friends text her. In my opinion i think this is really stupid because he told me he wasnt worried about but why would he text her if he wasnt worried? Obviously he wanted to know who the actual girl was.
Explain to me if im just overreacting or not?
My friend said that I shouldnt make him do something not to hurt me, he should know on his own not to do it.
what would you do?

Haha wow you sound exactly like me when I had problems trusting my boyfriend. I totally know what you mean. I think telling him not to text ANY girls is a little over protective. I told my boyfriend I really didn't like him texting these two girls and I bitched at the girls too because they were always trying to alure him and one of them sent him pictures. I was pretty furious. I would check his phone a lot; sometimes he had bad things on there and sometimes he didn't. And that's how I got to trust him...eventually. But anyway, guys are going to have girls that they are friends with and/or just talk to. I think this is just your jealousy coming out too much. But it's understandable to tell him not to do anything that would jeopordize you relationship. But just comfront him calmly about how he lied about it and tell him, if you come to your senses, that it's okay for him to text girls, just not do anything bad. Giving him a little bit of trust, you will most likely gain some back. But wow, that's like a girl's dream to get on another girls phone and see how your boyfriend will react :P.
I don't really get the last question you asked, I'm sorry.

Good luck and I hope I helped :)

Canon PowerShot SD750



is it true that the black version of that camera is better then the silver one?

(it looks like this)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwWcuuO-Fps

I'm pretty sure it's the same thing. But oh my gosh, that is my favorite all time camera. I loved it sooo much but I broke it and got another. I miss it!

[view]


okay i have a sony cyber-shot camera, i know i i bought insurance on it when i bought it, and it broke yesterday. what do i do to get it fixed? i really need it fixed before this friday cause its halloween!

When I broke mine, I got it from Circuit City, so I just brought it up there and they fixed it for about 2 hours but gave me a new one because they were scared they screwed it up. So I guess it depends where you got it from and if you got accident insurance.
Hope I helped :)

my guy friend likes me more then a friend & iv only known him 5months but i dont want ruin are friendship!!! & i like him 2.... plz help
and my name is Rayanna

Well if you have only known him for 5 months, there is no hurry :). Just become really close and maybe friends with benefits and see how things go. Later on if yall decide to try going out, then go ahead and try it :D. I doubt it will ruin your friendship if yall get to be really close friends. Hope I helped!

i have really thick hair, and alot of it. And I usually straighten it alot of the time, which is really time consuming because it takes like 3omin. at least to straighten it, and i like it but i need some new styles! My hair is also natural wavey. I also scrunch it when it is damp, or i pull it into a ponytail. But are there any good looking hairstyles that i could try?
thanks!
15/f

There are a billion things you can do with curling irons :P. I love them. Or just wear it natural! And put the top half up if you want. Use your imagination :D

anybody know how many calories are in a 6 inch Spicy Italian Sub from Subway when using wheat bread? it has salami, peporoni, american cheese, and i put lettuce pickle and salt&pepper onto it. about how many colories do you think are in that sandwich?

Adding on to what the other person said: yeah she's right. On most "fast food" restaurants you can look up all the calories and fat in their meals and all that good stuff. Here's Subway's nutrition website, http://www.subway.com/applications/NutritionInfo/nutritionlist.aspx?id=sandwich. And all the condiments nutrition is here http://www.subway.com/applications/NutritionInfo/nutritionlist.aspx?id=breadtop. Hope I helped :).

im 15 and my gf and i have been together for about 5 months and we make out and that and the other day she said she wants to see my penis
and well im a bit nervous my penis is not that big and im bit embarrassed to show her should i worry? does it matter that much to girls?

Well if you aren't comfortable with it then don't feel like you have to show her. That I know of, most girls this age don't care much at all. Since they aren't that experienced. I mean honestly, chodes...girls will care. But those are pretty rare. If yall have been together 5 months, yall should probably be pretty serious and things like that don't matter. She will find it attractive no matter what, despite any flaws you might have. But yeah, don't feel pressured if you aren't comfortable or confident enough to do that yet! Hope I helped :). Come back if you need more advice.

Hi
Im a 15yr old guy and im gay and i really like a guy over the last few months i developed strong feelings for him and i think he likes me too
i do want to be with him but im a bit nervous to make any move to quick i dont to freak him out im a bit nervous about what he and other people will think if it gets out i do like him should i go for it?

There are a ton of gay people around this age. In highschool...tons. No one will freak. Ask him to hang out :). Doesn't have to be a date necessarily. Just hang out as friends and see if yall really click :). But you didn't really say if yall have been hanging out before so I don't know. Turn on the flirt! Make sure he's gay, you could totally get your ass kicked. Start being a little touchy but not too creepy or clingy. It should just come natural if you have strong feelings for him. Hope I helped :). Come back if you need any more advice!

okay i want to know how to like put an object into a picture, but making it look real. how do i do this? what programs do i need? for example i want to put a piece of paper into a picture, but i want it to look real. so PLEASE tell me only if you know!

Yeah, you do that with photoshop. You use the lasso tool and select the paper and then hold down ctrl and drag it to the picture you want it in. Then use the eraser to erase the extra that you dragged in with the paper and then use hue/saturation/lighting/contrast/etc. to match the color and the lighting of the picture you put it in. If that makes sense? Sorry

--Jenna

Oh yeah, and you don't have to have the expensive one. You can get Photoshop elements for as little as $40

Hi! I have naturally straight hair with some random waves. I do like to straighten my hair though. My problem is when I go clubbing after 10 minutes my hair gets all wavy and even curly. I see some girls manage to keep their hair pinstraight ALL night though! Any ideas on how I can as well? Thanks!

I agree with what the other person said below me. But also use some hairspray, that will help a lot too. Or think of some different hairstyled. Like the top half up in a ponytail. Or just a ponytail, there are tons of hairstyles you don't need to have pin-straight hair for. Hope I helped :)

well.
i just got a new boyfriend and my friend is sorta jealous because it has always been just me and her and now I'm spending time with him and she gets upset. So i told her maybe she should try being friends with him but then i was thinking and realized i don't really want her to take him from me or them to get really close and start to like each other because i really love him, so am i being too paranoid and what do i tell her?

Wow I totally feel ya on the first part. Same with me and my best friend and my boyfriend, I've kind of pulled away from her since I got a boyfriend and it sucks. But if you're bestfriend is really your best friend, she won't take him from you. And if he is true to you, he won't go for her. Maybe just try not to be so over protective about it unless she is a big flirt or something. Maybe try all 3 of yall hanging out once and see how it goes and then go from there :). But don't be like me and not hang out as a threesome and then end up drifting from your friend. It really sucks and I regret it and it's hard to turn back.

haha i dont even know how i found this website but on to my Q...
i lost my really cheap prepaid phone and im gettin a new one from tmobile and i cant decide from these two: the nokia 6133 from the tmobile website and the nokia 5301 xpressmusic from best buy.
the good things about the 6133 is that theres no activation fee, no shipping fee and u get a free bluetooth headset and it costs $19.99. the 5301 from the tmobile website costs $49.99 but its free from best buy. So why not buy the free 5301 from best buy? i have to pay $40 for the activation fee and i dont get the bluetooth headset; which isnt that big of a deal.. but in the end both phones are about the same price.. i dont even know which one i like better.. so which one do u think i should get and why?

Hmm I don't really have experience with nokia or tmobile. I just looked at the reviews and this is about what I found
Looks wise, the 5310 would be my preference because it's a lot sleeker looking and the other is a little older looking. But this website:

http://www.yourmobilephonereviews.co.uk/nokia_5310_xpressmusic_reviews.htm

says it is really fragile with the keys and the screen. Some people said they loved it and others said there are many glitches and bad sound quality.
Here's personal reviews for the 6133
http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_6133-reviews-1736.php
This phone seems to have more ups than downs but I didn't read that much into it


To compare features, look at these websites
http://www.mobiledia.com/phones/nokia/5310-xpressmusic.html
http://www.mobiledia.com/phones/nokia/6133.html

So, it depends on your preference. But if it were me, I would look into different phones with better reviews. That might be the best idea. Hope I helped!

Hi, I have a question for people on here who know a lot about digital cameras...


I'd like to know which camera is better at capturing fine details and great colors:

Canon PowerShot SD600 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EMWBT2/ref=cm_cmu_pg__header) or Canon PowerShot SD 1100IS (http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-SD1100IS-Digital-Stabilized/dp/B0012YC7AE/ref=dp_ob_title)?


I've seen people in my class with small silver digital cameras, and often times the coloring turns out washed out, facial details paled and not looking so good. Are the cameras I listed anything like that at all? Do they take good pictures indoors? Are the pictures anywhere near as good as the user pics submitted on Amazon?

My friend had the SD600, it was a pretty good camera. Small screen though and the pictures turned out really washed out. The only way you could get a good picture from it is if you do your own manual setting, they are still washed out though. It is hard to get a good picture like you put without enhancing it a little. On any camera. The SD1100IS would probably be better since it is newer and more megapixels and just more improved. I haven't really played with it before but the fact it is newer and more megapixels, it has to be better. The pictures can be as good as the ones on Amazon, some are photoshopped a little with the contrast and whatnot. But they are pretty darn close. These are people that really know their camera and know where and what lighting gets the best picture. And they put the best of all the pictures they have taken. Canon usually has face detecting so the faces should be pretty detailed but maybe paled on the SD600, i don't know about the SD1100.
But that's all I know. I hope I helped :D

hey..well today i went to her job after work and she was suprised to see me..basically she was pissed but i had to go for myself and try to figure things out..she basically told me shes happy being single shes happy doing things for herself she wants to be by herself..she told me i cant change her mind about it cause she cant forget what i did..she told me she doesnt mean to hurt me or make me sad but this is what she wants time for herself..so i guess thats what i got to do..im giving it one more try..im not g2 have any contact with her from now until september cuz in 2 months it would be our 1 year anniversary ive had reservations to this very expensive restaurant its very hard to get a reservation so i had to call in advance..the week of the anniversary im g2 talk to her and see whats up if shes up to it then great if not then im making it officially over cause im done trying so hard and its not getting me anywhere..what do you think?

Well that's good that you respect her opinion :D. And atleast she wasn't doing this just for revenge. She was doing it because she thought it was best. I think that's a good idea you've got going. Really thoughtful and smart too. I bet she would of have enough time to herself by then and maybe she will be ready to start talking again :D. It sounds like you have given this a lot of thought and you pretty much answered your own question :D. Glad to help though. I hope everything works out!

heyy jenna,
my bf is about to be 15 && i don't know what to get him for his birthdayy. any suggestions?
thanx :D

Ah I always search for this question everywhere. And no one ever gives me the right answer. This is pretty much you're preference. What kind of stuff does he like? You could give him a ton of his favorite candy, a gift card to his favorite store, a framed picture of yall, you could make him some pants or a tshirt with iron on printer paper and be creative :D, some clothes, anything! But every guy loves a home made card, so that's a definite yes.
Hope I gave you some ideas!
This is always a hard one, sorry

Ok well I take showers like 2 times a day and Im always pretty cleaan. but my vagina has this like white stuff coming out of it. but see i've been told that white stuff is cum from being horny. but no im never horny and my mom said it could be my uterus shredding? what should i do to get this to stop?! HELP!

Hmmm like white, white might be a yeast infection. Look up the symptoms on the internet but I heard there is a lot of irritation and tons of itching. It has nothing to do with being dirty. But if it's like clearish yellowish maybe then it is probably discharge or ovulation. Discharge happens all month and it happens to everyone. Try wearing a pantiliner :D. Ovulation is your body releasing an egg. That's about the time you would have sex to try to get pregnant. But in that time, the discharge comes in bigger "loads" and it really stringy.
Hope I helped :D

Ok i dont know if its the new show iv been watching but...2 nights ago. i was i bed facing the other way. When all of a sudden, if felt as tho there was someone standing over me with a knife about to stab me. and i know i was awake. And i would think its the show but i hadnt seen it in like 3 weeks. Also when im walking around places, ill look over, and see someones face. No one that i know. And when i look back, its gone. and i feel as tho someones always watching me. Oh also i can like sence if somethings there...i think. i could never really be sure. because i run away. lol i know kinda nerdy but it scares me. And i am a bubbly person and i joke around about everything. And thats why i would never really tell anyone. Most the time i just laugh it off. But after what happened 2 nights ago. I dont know. It was like a strong feeling of hate i think. I have no idea because it never happened to me. and no im not crazy.

This kind of stuff used to happen to me to. It wasn't as scary though. I would see people that looked like they had been beat up real bad. Car accidents, killed, who knows. But they wouldn't stalk me, I would just see them walking around like they were set to go somewhere. So no biggie. But what you have may just be a fear from whatever show you watched. Even if you don't think it is. If you think about it happening before it happens, you will see or sense things. Your mind is a very powerful thing. Mind of matter or whatever people say. Try to stop thinking about it if it is possible, go to church, if you come in contact with one of them in your house. Ask them what they want and you mean them no harm, you are just living there. You might not want to be alone as much. Sleep with someone else in the house. If this gets worse or continues for a long time, maybe call in a priest or a psycic (sp?). They could probably help. Good luck. And I think that is really cool that you are bubbly about it, I would be a wreck. You seem like a strong person that can handle and get through this :D
Hope I helped! And good luck

--Jenna

p.s. The people I used to see went away within about a year or two. They just slowly faded. So just be hopeful :D. Those things don't go on forever

see thats the thing she found out about it she read the email..but i did the same thing i gave her my password to everything but i just messed it up by talkin to my ex it was a big mistake but it meant nothing i just have to make her understand that and im g2 do whatever it takes...see its been a month since ive seen her i called her i sent messages emails any way to try to talk to her but nothing worked she basically told me she wants her space and time to think things through..but its been a month i think shes taking it to far..my question is do i go see her and try to talk things through and settle this

Ohhh gotcha. Alright. Well that's good you gave her your password and everything. But the message would of had to of been flirty or questionable is she is that upset or mad. I mean, a month? Come on. That is a long time. Either you did something bad in the e-mail or she is extremely jealous and overprotective. But that is better than nothing. I think she has had enough time. It is definatly time for yall to talk this out. Not talking doesn't solve anything, I've discovered that. You guys just need to sit down and calmly talk about it and hear eachother's stories and opinion about what happened and what should happen after this. If she is set on a certain decision, don't argue. Just be respectful of her and that's all you can do. Girls are tough.
If you need anything else, come back :D
