The title says it all, my apparent "best mate" has went with my ex boyfrieds (Yes I am gay) on three seperate cases, and I dont think its fair or amusing in the slightest. He has saidthat he was sorry for doing there on saturday, and told me that he was verydrunk, but I would never do that, espically in front of me. I know the gay scene is a little promiscious, but come on!Any advice on how to approach him, its becoming annoying! (link)
As they're *ex* boyfriends I don't think you have too much say in who they snog. However if you've told your best mate that his going with your exes causes you pain and he's persisting with the behaviour then he doesn't sound like much of a mate.

I'd look into finding some nicer friends.


Hi, I'm only 22 years old....female. I went on the contraceptive pill and was on it for two years. However, I had to stop due to side effects such as really bad migraines and loss of libido. However, since I stopped a year ago, my breasts have decreased in size and my libido has not returned! What can I do to regain my breasts and my libido? PLease help me as my situation is really making me feel so old. (link)
It's common for women to gain weight or have slightly enlarged breasts when they're on the pill so I'd suggest that your breasts are now at their normal size.

Since coming off the pill hasn't improved your libido then I think you might have to look for another explanation. Have you had any uncomfortable experiences with sex? Is your relationship with your partner good? Do you even want to masturbate? If nothing occurs to you then I think it might be a good idea to talk to your gynaecologist.


What is the best way to get rid of bed bugs without having to buy a new mattress?

What is the best way to clean your kitchen sink?

How often would you change the carpet in your house? (link)
1. Regular hoovering will remove bed bugs.

2. I rinse out the sink every evening with hot, soapy water and then dry it with a dish towel. Other than that, it depends what it's made of.

3. I've only ever changed carpeting because the colour scheme for the room was changing. Properly looked after carpeting lasts a long, long time.


ik a lot of peopelask, but does anyone know a good easy way to lsoe weight, i really need =( ill rate high♥ (link)
You probably don't want to hear it but we really are talking diet and exercise here.

The tricky bit is finding the diet and exercise that are right for you. I use SlimmingWorld and walk/run and have lost 3 stones (14 pounds = 1 stone).

Some people swear by Atkins, others calorie count, some people just cut out snack foods - go with the approach you think will be easiest for you.

For exercise - try to find something that you really enjoy. Then do lots of it :)


if you are spotting blood for a week, what do you think that means? (link)
It's hard to say what it means without knowing more. If you think you may be pregnant but you are now spotting then I'd suggest you see a Dr.


Ok .. long story short .. Im a freshie and hes a sophmore. hes new this year. He rides my bus as in four of my classes, and a few of my lunches. I like him. Hes funny. People think hes a retard but i dont. IM not the type of person who cares what people think as long as your happy. Im scared to talk to him.. SOOO SCARED. I cant do it.. i tried and i couldnt walk. Should i get a friend to talk to him for me ? How do i get his sn from him ? Do yooh think if we do start hanging out .. like after we start being friends if he wont like me caz im taller than him ? And also he was in my group for spainsh and when he talked he directed it at me. Do yooh think that could mean he wants to like get to know me ? he doesnt know many people since hes new. I need as much as advice as yooh can give me. If yooh do help me ill give yooh a cookie. And a hug. I know i seem weird in this but im really tired lol. I REALLY like him. what do i do ? i know i need to get the nerve to talk to him eventually.. but .. how ? (link)
Why not try starting small? He directed his speach towards you in Spanish - so you could do the same next time you have that class. You've got lots of opportunities to have little, inconsequential conversations with him as you're in so many of the same classes and lunches. It could be anything from 'Gee - that fruit looks good' to 'Hi - is this seat taken?' before you sit yourself down beside him for lunch.


Me and my bestfriend had a fight...I told him that I was talkin to someone that he doesnt like, im the kind of person that doesnt judge before actually getting to know a person, so he got really mad and told me never to talk to him again. I dont know what to do he wont answer me when I talk, and he ignores me. It's hard to just say "oh well i'll move on" because we shared so many things we even thought about going to prom together (im a girl) and now he doesnt even want to talk to me or anything. I dont know what to do I want him to be my friend again. I know he wont talk to me b/c he is doing it (not talkin to her) to someother girl who was talkin to his ex. He is the kind of person who holds grudges alot and cant forget things easy.
I just want him back :(. (link)
He really is the kind to hold grudges, isn't he?

To be honest, I'd say that you might be well out of this one. No boyfriend has the right to dictate to whom his girlfriend talks and I really wonder what's going on that your boyfriend is so concerned with your talking to someone.

Yes, you've shared a lot together and it'll take time to get over it - no one likes getting over it. But, in time, you will and you'll be able to move on.

Hey, a couple of days ago I started school, and I have three classes in a row with this one guy and so far he has really stood out to me for some reason.. he's cute,smart, funny, sweet. we never really talked that much until this year because of our classes together. i want him to be interested in me.. but im a traditional type of girl, and i want the guy to approach me first.. how can i make him notice me more without being too obvious? thanks alot (link)
If you want the guy to approach you first then you'll need to be sending him signals that you're interested. If you see him out of class then make sure you make eye contact, maybe smile at him etc. If you're in a group of people with him make sure you listen to what he's saying and ask him questions.

I've found that men tend to miss the signals that we ladies think make our feelings obvious though so you may just have to bite the bullet and talk to him directly.


ok so ive had sex quit a few times and with different people but ive never orgasmed!! ive been with my boyfriend a few months now and hes getting really upset that he cant make me orgasm! i dont know what to do. i would fake it but we promised each other we'd always be honast about everything and he can tell when im lying! so is there any way i can help myself to orgasm? is there anything i can do??
please help!!
any advice is wanted!!
i'll rate high!! (link)
Lots and lots of women find it hard to have orgasms so you are perfectly normal.

If you can masturbate yourself to orgasm then I'd suggest you ask your boyfriend to try touching you in a similar manner or that you touch yourself while you're with him.

If you've never had an orgasm at all then I'd suggest that you take some time to explore what feels good down there and see what happens. When you know what you like, tell or show your boyfriend.

Some women don't ever have orgasms from penetrative sex - if you are one then you might want to consider getting a vibrator or using your fingers to stimulate your clitoris while your boyfriend is making love to you.


ok.. so there's this guy that i hang out w/ at school and stuff. i didn't think he liked me, but then he asked me out. he's the sweetest guy ever, and all my friends say i should go out w/ him... but i don't like him. i don't like anyone else, but i still think i should give him a chance, but i'm not sure. his ex is my good friend, and she really really wants me to say yes, and all my friends think i should 2. i mean it's really not that big of a deal, cause i'm only 13, but i just want to know what to say! thanks alot! i rate high! (link)
If you don't want to go out with him (for whatever reason) then don't. I know it's hard when your friends all think you should but don't go out with him just to make them happy.

You could say something like 'It's really nice of you to ask me out but I don't want to. Thanks anyway.'


ok.... i need to rdo my room... liek i need a new comforter...and like accesories.. i share my room... so i have no space at all...now.. whenever i ask for this people tell me to go to pbteen and like those places.. i do not have that much money.. i need something cheap but also something that is good... like i already checked out jcpenny, sears, macys,ikea,target,etc... so if u have any others please tell me.. or even if you have some ideas of how i could do it.. im a girly girl.. i love pink and neon green.... i hate stripes.. so maybe u can give me some ideas if you don't know any websites...

Have you tried going round charity shops or consignment stores? I've picked up loads of lovely things from them and they're very cheap.

You might also want to go to http://www.freecycle.org/. Please advertise things they no longer want on Freecycle groups and give the things away for free.


ive had this wart on my finger for a long time, and I just got a wart remover thing a week ago. its Dr. Scholl's Clear Away Wart Remover. on the package it says it can take up to 12 weeks to fully remove the wart! the warts already getting smaller.. any1 know anything that works better? or is this gunna work? (link)
The virus that causes warts lives deep in your skin so, yes, it can take 12 weeks to really kill it. However, as you've said it's already getting smaller so the Clear Away *is* working. Persevere and I'm sure it'll soon be gone.


There is a guy I know that I really like but he has a gf We are really good friends and he likes me to but he does not cheat and I would not ask him to I never have the good thing is he is far away but next week I am going to see him I don't know what will happen because we like each other so much and the thing is I have a bf to His gf is in Chicago tho and he is in San Francisco she is stupid because she told him the only way she would move with him to San Francisco is if he married her and hes not ready for that yet Im gonna be leaving my bf soon because im not happy but I don't know if he will because he says he loves her but I know he likes me and thats why im going so we can talk in person and see whats going on What should I do? Im confused Should I sleep with him or no? Female/23 (link)
It's really good that you and this guy are going to talk. I think you both need to assess your relationships - with each other and with your partners. I certainly don't think you should sleep with him though - not unless you have both left your partners.


Hey everyone, I just got back from my brother's party, and I got a little drunk. I think I'm sober, but I still feel a little weird. I don't feel sick yet, but if I do get sick, my dad will find out and we'll both get in a lot of trouble. Is there anything I can do besides drinking water, so that I won't get sick? I can't sleep either. What should I do?

16/f (link)
Drinking water is a good thing but be careful you don't drink so much that your stomach does get upset. I find it helps me to eat dry, salty foods - little and often. Also, if you start feeling sick you might try sucking a mint. Other than that - go to bed and sleep it off.


Ho come everyone says that you need to wear a condom when you have sex?? ( I mean i knoe why) But what if someone wants to get pregnant... seriously.. (link)
Condoms don't just prevent pregnancy. They also offer protection against sexually transmitted diseases (like HIV-AIDS). If you're trying to become pregnant then, no, you wouldn't use a condom but it'd be an idea for both partners to have their sexual health checked before having sex without the condom.


this one guy has me so confused... at times it feels like he wants me ...other times it feels like im the replacement

i dont know if he has a girl or not

and im the ex so i dont want to just come out and ask him if he does

he said he misses me at times

AT TIMES..... doesnt that mean like once in a while....i dont know what to think anymore...as soon as i clear my doubts about him they all fall back on me....

what should i do.... this is seriously getting me to a point that i think i need a pcychologist's help (link)
I really think you should talk to him about it. Of course, you don't have to just blurt out 'Are you seeing anyone? Would you like to see me again?' But there's nothing wrong with saying something along the lines of 'I'm feeling a bit confused so I'd like to know exactly where I stand with you. Can we please talk about it?'
