Hey I'm 19 and a college sophomore. I'm majoring in social work and I want to do something with child services for a career. I love to read and write and I love to get book recommendations. :) I love to sing and listen to music and I love to be around the people I love. One of my priorities in life is to always be there for the people I love, whether it's an ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on. Whatever I can do to help, I will try. If you have any questions or just want to chat, let me know!

Okay...is a hickey basically when like youre making ut and then like the other person...a boy for me in my case...will just move down to my neck and bite?
I'm confused as to how it all comes about with getting one and stuff... (link)
| |
Hickeys come from sucking or biting in the neck area. It usually happens when making out and the biting might hurt a little but usually not too much.

ever since i got my permit, ive notice im TERRIBLE at driving. i'm putting my own safety at risk, and others! its just hard for me to stear (sp?) and turning and parking! are there video games out there for playstation or whatever to help me practice driving better? like i could buy a fake stearing column or something and practice? if not, what else can i do? i've been practiving for 2 months now!!thanks?! (link)
| |
It's best to just practice. I used to be terrible at braking and turning but after practicing just those things for an hour or two, I'm much better at those things. Have someone take you to a residential area where there a lot of turns and not many cars and drive around there for a while working on the skills you need to perfect.

i am 14/f and a Christian.
i am so scared right now. i believe in god and i love going to church and it makes me want to be a much better person, but when i hear people talk about their doubts of god, i get scared. i mean, what if they are right? i cry when i think what if he doesnt exist because i am just so unsure, but i love god and i want to believe that he cares about us all. i am so so scared and i could never be an atheist or whatever.. can someone please give me advice? (link)
| |
Believing in God isn't bad and I'm a strong Christian and I used to be confused on my beliefs as well. Everyone has their own opinions and you can respect them but you don't have to believe the same as they do. Just ignore them and believe what you always have and you'll be fine. Don't worry, it happens to everyone.

Alright so here's the deal. My girlfriend and I have beed going over 4 motnhs now and we want to try something new. We already have made-out on top of each other, and we were talking about it and we want to take it to the next step or level. We both said we would do anything but sex. Making out gets old after awhile, and we both want to make it more exciting. Does anyone here have any ideas?
thanks =] (link)
| |
you can always go to second base...which is up her shirt...that's what my boyfriend and I moved onto after a few months and it makes making out more interesting and enjoyable. also, you can try kissing in different ways by biting her lip and stuff.
|
for lent i am giving up myspace
but i dont think i will be able to keep that "promise"
yikes .
iono
so what are u all giving up ?? (link)
| |
I'm Catholic and my family enforces fasting so basically I can only eat three meals a day with no junk food in them and no snacks. No meat on Fridays or Ash Wednesday. It's not too hard but I do love junk food...

I go with this guy who is totally sexual (lol) and of course i dont mind because, hey, I am too. And so me and him joke about stuff ALL the time, but nothing has actually happened, you know? I figured he'd be the guy who would kiss me faster than anyone, but nothing yet, because I know that he's alot of "all-talk" as people say, and really values togetherness and getting to know one another. I LOVE that about him, I love everything, but I think it's about time we had our first kiss, and I'm not sure how to go about it. It's not like either of us are shy, but I don't know what to do really. (link)
| |
When you guys are together, just hint towards it. Lean in towards him or something like that. Otherwise if that doesn't work, kiss him on the cheek if you haven't already done that. That'll open up the possiblilty of kissing and you could always mention it casually since you both aren't shy and it shouldn't be awkward since it directly has to do with your relationship. I hope this helps!

tonight im meeting my potential boyfriends parents!
i dont want to give them the wrong impression, but i dont want them to think im a prude or anything.
suggestions? (link)
| |
Wear clothes that aren't revealing...no midriff or cleavage and something that's comfortable for you as well. Don't dress up too much, just wear something casual. I wish you the best of luck!

I am a high school freshman, female, 14yrs old. I recenetly decided to take summer school classes and cram my senior year of high school into my junior year, so I will only have three years of high school instead of the usual four. Do you think this is a bad idea? I mean, I will never be a senior (no senior prom, which I can live without) and everyone says high school is the best part of anyone's life but i really do not like my high school and how do I know I will like college better? Do you think this is a bad idea? Thanks in advance... (link)
| |
High school and college is different for everyone. One of my friends loved high school and I hate it and it's your decision to not be a senior but it's not always a bad thing. You can always try college like at a local one to see what's it's like and if you hate it, you can at least be near home. You should at least try it because you never know. I hope I helped you!

Ok when I'm mad I say OH MY GOD or JESUS CHRIST or when I'm surprised or something and people always say, don't say that! Is it because they hate God or something else? (link)
| |
It's actually the opposite....saying those things disrespects God unless you are praying...so they may be offended by those comments..

Love at 16...?
What do you guys think? Is it possible? Or is it just a bunch of teen emotions? (link)
| |
I don't really think love has an age since 16 is a reasonable since it's not too young. As long as you know that it's not lust, it's possible to be in love at such an age. I was and all you need to do is meet the right person.

Okay so recently I have read the book,
Twilight. It's about vampires ( I know sounds
weird ) But let me tell you this book is awesome.
Have any of you read it?
Well anyone.. to my point, I was just wondering
if anyone knew if this will be made into
a movie anytime soon. And if not, is there somewhere I can go ... somewebsite, and e-mail a company to read the book and suggest it as a new movie? Thanks in advance (link)
|
I have read Twilight and there is a sequel called New Moon which is, in my opinion just as good, if not better. The author has a website that I've been on a couple of times.

I hope this will help!

I don't know why, but I always feel like all I ever do is work. I go to school and work my ass off. I come home and work hard on my homework only to worry if I did it right and if I'm going to get a good grade. I have to make good grades because thats how I've been raised and I think to be able to become something important I need to. I worry about everything. I've been going through depression for a while for a few reasons. One is I feel ugly and need a better body. I pretty much hate myself. Another is I always feel when someone is nice to me there is something they want like a hidden reason. I'm negative and tend to think the worst of people. I don't trust people easy and can't believe anyones genuine. I just can't get past any of this especially how I look. I know that sounds shallow, but with all this I feel like all I do is work and feel horrible. I feel like I'm constently under stress. I mean yes I have a great boyfriend, but that is about it. I have good parents, but my friends werent real friends if you can understand that. I started a new school and I'm working on making new friends. I always feel different though. I just want to be happy so if you have any suggestions or thoughts on this or can somewhat relate anything would be appreciated. (link)
| |
I can relate to you in that I don't think I'm beautiful either but talk to you boyfriend and if you're stressed out just call him and hang out with him just to relax because that's what he's there for. My boyfriend always gets mad at me if I don't call him when I really need him. Another good thing to get in the habit of doing to get out all of your feelings is writing. I love to write myself and it always helps me feel better and to get the weight off of my shoulders. It doesn't have to be perfect, just write what you feel and just keep a notebook of your writing. I myself have several notebooks filled and I've also ventured into poetry, but that's just me. I hope I was able to help you out!

how can you tell when youre in love with someone or just in love with love? (link)
| |
it's more of a feeling...you can't stop thinking about them, you're stomach still gets all fluttery, you miss them when you're not with them, you never get sick of kissing them, you genuinely care about them and find yourself doing things for them, and you can't wait to see them...you get the feeling that you love them...I hope this helps!

Ok, here it goes. My ex boyfriend was my best friend. He didnt really act like my boyfriend when we were going out and i didnt really have a problem with it, or i just didnt say anything about it... well, he saw he was being a huge jerk, and heard it from a lot of people... and i guess he didnt want to deal with all the drama because he is not use to it. Well, when we were going out, he would skateboard and sometimes ignore me and stuff... We ended it. But we were best friends, and its definately not the same. I barely ever see him now and i hate to say it, but i still really like him, alot. I dont know what to do... I've been playing it cool, making it appear like nothing is wrong... but i can tell that i still like him. Im still not use to not having him as a bf, like i still search for him in the halls and i hate it. What should i do? And.. i really want to.. atleast, be friends with him, atleast. (link)
| |
the best thing you can do is talk to him. explain the you still value his friendship and that you miss it. you may need to back off from him for a bit to give him space but let him know that you would still like to be friends with him.

Ok, So... I got a facial yesterday. Yeah, for the first time, actually. And... My face was clear before, or so i though. Now i have red all over with random spots all over my face, and yes i know it will go away sooner or later. But i want to know what i could use to make it go faster? Or... if covering it up is a bad idea? The doctors told me it was'nt but, my friends who have had it before said it was. Hmmmm... (link)
| |
everyone's skin is different, so i would listen to the doctor and not the friends just because your friends might have totally different skin than yours and your doctor is certified and knows what he's talking about more.

does proactiv really work? i saw a commercial for this other stuff called murad or something and its like proactiv but i heard it works better then proactiv. i want to buy one of them but i dont know which one really works.any advice? (link)
| |
it depends on your skin since everyone has different skin. It'll work better with some than others. try it and see if it works, and if it doesn't, try something else.

Im 15 and a female..a freshman in highschool of that helpss anywayss
so theres this guy that i have liked since the beggining of the year. He is my best friend ( who is a guy) best friends. So we tend to be at the same place at the same time. I really like him but the one time i tried to tell him everything got out of hand...i want to tell him and it seems like he is somewhat into me but hes really bad at showing his feelings. What should i do? keep it a secret? forget about him and move on? or what? PLEASE HELP ME! (link)
| |
I say, tell him. if he doesn't like you back, then try not to lose any part of the friendship by making things awkward. you only live life once, so go for it! i wish you the best of luck!
|
|
that you have no classes with, barley see, and how do you make a girl laugh? and please dont say tell a story or something it doesn't work. (link)
|
if you have mutual friends, you can set up a get-together with a group and invite her
if you don't have any mutual friends, you can start talking to her by seeing what she has in common with you or maybe if you kinda know a friend of hers, you can tell her your situation and he or she can help you. as long as don't come on as creepy and keep everything casual, it'll be fine
it's not hard to make her laugh, just be yourself since as a girl myself, guys being fake is not a turn on.
Good luck!
|
|
okay there is this guy right..and i talk to him everyday.I like him alot. But i never know what to talk about..what do i do? what do i talk about with him? (link)
| |
Talk about your interests...books, movies, music, anything that he might also enjoy. also, talk about school and classes if you go to school with him. once you're more comfortable with him, you can talk more about likes and dislikes and things like that.
