For the past 4 days I have been SOOOO tired. I've been so tired to the point where I couldn't function and I almost forgot where I was. I got 10 hours of sleep 3 days ago, 8 and a half hours of sleep 2 days ago, and like 15 hours of sleep yesterday so it's not because I'm sleepy. I'm just so tired and I can barely move. And my body doesn't hurt. I DONT have a stomach or head ache or anything, I'm just soooo tired. I took my temperature and It's 98.7 so it's normal. It hasn't stopped for 4 days!!! I went to bed at 4 in the afternoon yesterday and slept until 10 a.m so I wouldn't feel tired today, but I still feel just as tired! Even when I pulled an all nighter about 6 months ago, I still didn't feel as tired then as I do now! I have no energy whatsoever and I drank a lot of water so I'm hydraded. I don't know what's wrong with me. What could be causing me being sooo tired and feeling so weak? (link)
it could be any one of the things that other people have mentioned, or it could be mono. mono tends to make you really really tired. depending on how old you are, it might just be a phase. i agree with the other answers though, ask your doctor! are you on any prescription meds? sometimes those can make you drowsy. if you've been busy lately, your body may just be trying to make up for lost time. it might be burnout, if you've been going really strong before all this started. keep drinking water, and eat lots of fruit and vegetables, and again...ASK YOUR DOCTOR!


do you think getting fingered or giving a handjob is to slutty for a 13 yr old? thanks♥ (link)
it's not slutty! don't ever let anyone call you a slut, if you're comfortable with it, then it's your decision. on the other hand, you are only 13, and I know your hormones are probably off the wall, but getting fingered and giving handjobs will eventually lead to other things, or give the guy the impression that you want more than that. a little advice: only do it if you know the guy knows you won't go any further. don't let anyone pressure you; you know your body and what it's ready for. just be careful, because there are a lot of creeps out there who will pressure you or try to make you go further than just fingering and handjobs. you are in control of your body, and if you're not ready for sex, try not to give the impression that you are. make sure you are prepared to make him stop if you want him to, and communicate. let him know what you're willing to do, and what you will not do. that way, he can't claim to have thought you wanted to, if you didn't. be careful, and don't let anyone call you a slut, and don't ever consider yourself to be slutty. most important, have respect for yourself. only you know what you're ready for, no one else can make that decision. i hope you make the decision that is right for you. :)

some kind of position with a website. my boyfriend works as a news editor for a website, he works from his house, on his laptop, for maybe 5 hours a day, and gets good money for it. if you are familiar with html and all that good stuff, you should look into it further. as well, some kind of transcriptionist. medical transcriptionists listen to dictation, either recorded or live, and type it out...all day. those kind of courses to get the qualifications can be acquired at any business college, or community college. google it for your town/city! good luck


This is going to be super long...

Me and my boyfriend of about 7 and a half months broke up at the beginning of the week because he's leaving for a 9 month missions trip to Africa in 2 months. We were taking it way too seriously emotionally, contsantly disagreeing on things and just generally not doing too well. The breakup was mutual because even though we agreed the decision sucked, it is what's best for both of us right now. We resolved to be friends until he returned from Africa and try being together again when he gets back. So I turned around my claddagh ring (an Irish promise ring that kind of shows what your status is in relationships, I got one from him for Valentine's Da), put everything he ever gave me (cards, roses and other flowers that were now dead, poems and a few other things) away where I couldn't see them and basically cried until it was time for me to get up to go to work the next day. The next day I felt just kind of numb inside. Two days later he called me and then came over for a few hours to just hang out. We were having a great time, laughing and acting like the kids that we keep forgetting we are, like we used to. But the whole time I kept getting those painful stabs of missing him and I had to keep reminding myself that we weren't together anymore and that I couldn't randomly kiss him anymore. Everytime we've said goodbye since the breakup he kisses my cheek or my forehead or my neck and it hurts even more. There will be those moments where I'll catch him staring at me or vice versa and we both know what the other one is feeling and thinking, still even then. Since we've broken up we've hung out two or three times and the whole idea of being best friends again is going really really well. I have no problem with it at all I guess I just need help with getting used to it. Anybody have any suggestions? (link)
Ever hear the saying "time heals all wounds"? This is true for your situation. It may be really hard now, and it will be hard for a while, but it will get better. If it is painful for you when you hang out with him, maybe you should take a break from that for a while. It's just a feeling I have, but if he's still kissing you goodbye, even if it's everywhere but your mouth, he still has feelings for you. 9 months is a long time, but maybe it's a good thing for you. The time apart will help you realize where you want the relationship to go when he gets back. You will both have matured a bit, and realized more who you are as individuals, instead of who you are as a couple. All I can tell you is that you should do what your heart is telling you. Maybe you should talk to him again about it before he leaves, or you'll have to wait 9 months to say what's on your mind. If you can sense that he still has feelings for you, and if you have feelings for him, you need to sort them out before he leaves the continent. As to what to do to get used to being just friends with him, maybe hang out in a group, instead of alone. There will be more distractions to keep you from thinking about how it used to be all the time. Go to a movie, and get distracted with that. Or just do something really fun, like go-karts or something. And if it is painful to you when he kisses you, ask him not to do it anymore, and tell him why. Good luck, and I hope everything works out for you.


Hello, I'm fat, I weight 330 pouds roughly and like hm...

I have acne, but I'm pretty sure I can fix that with some facial hygiene and working out(after all, I'm only 18).

I wanted to know if it's still worth living, because I quit scroll and I'm about 4 years late on high school now, I should've been in college.

I deeply wish I could change all of that, but it gradually accumulatyed/piled up, now my life is a bad bad mess and it's going to take a GREAT effort to recover everything.

It sorta kills all my motivation to take it back when I think of how much it will be hard to heal, so I just sit and wait for my death to happen.

Is there anything I can do to decide to change? Because by sheer self esteem is impossible, I find myself worthless and unloved. (link)
go to your doctor or therapist, and tell them right away. if you're even wondering if your life is worth living, you need someone to help you through this. find something to motivate you, something you're passionate about. no crazy diets, no whack exercise regimes...talk to your doctor. everything about yourself that you mentioned can be fixed. maybe think about going to adult high or something....good luck!


Okay , pleasee answer this ASAP considering I am leaving to get these items soon. What color eyeliner makes brown eyes stand out the most? What is the best brand of eyeliner to buy? Also can you prevent the eyeliner from running off to the side of your eye a theirs like a dot there? And if so what is it? Like are their any types of eyeliner that DONT do that? Ohh , and what color eyeliner makes your eyes look bigger? Thank-you. (link)
ALMAY intense i-color makeup!!! They have different sets specifically made and colored for certain eye colors. I have brown eyes too, and I bought the eyeshadow set. The colors in it are kind of a lavendar color, a dark brown, and a light shimmery beige color. They also have eyeliner and mascara made specially for brown eyes. You can buy the sets for brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes, and hazel eyes. They even tell you which part of your eye to apply the eyeshadow to, to best bring out your eyes. The lavendar/purple color goes all over your base lid, the dark brown goes on your crease, and the beige shimmer goes under your brow line. they have to be blended, and the effect is very nice. Typically, shades of purple, brown, beige, and some blues (very pale, subdued blues) bring out brown eyes best. I bought my set at Walmart in Canada, so I'm not sure if they have it in the States, but they probably do. Again, it's ALMAY Intense i-color, for browns. check out their website, they'll have more information there. good Luck!


My name is Justine, I am 14 and in one month 15, and female
I really like my moms ex-best friends son and I have known him all my life but I am not alowed to see him anymore. He likes me and I like him, but he moved to far away. We sneek around just so we can see each other but its not enough. We call ourselves friends with benifets, but the truth is I am in love with him but I dont know if I should tell him. Hes been my friend for so long, and I dont want to ruin our friend ship just because how I feel What do I do? Do I tell him how i feel any possibly dont talk to him for a long time, or do I keep me Fellings locked inside of me? (link)
i understand the strong feelings you and john have for each other, but at the same time, it's a little early to start planning marriage. i think you should just enjoy your relationship for now, and let what happens happen. if your parents disapprove, prove to them that it's right for you to be together. approach them maturely, and calmly. don't get all dramatic, that will just make things worse. approach this situation like an adult, and chances are, you will be treated as such. your parents may think that you are too young for such feelings, that it's just hormones, or just a phase or just some sort of crush... they could be right, but they also need to know that it's something the two of you need to figure out on your own. maybe you could let them read your question, and the answers that follow...it might be a good way to "break the ice" to open up the conversation. things will work out the way they are supposed to, and i wish you the best.


I still love my ex boyfriend Dean. he wants to go back out with me maybe but i hardly ever talk to him so its kinda hard. my friend Cody i think likes me. i like him too and i would go out with him but i still love dean. and another guy named Cody (we'll call him Cody2) that i work with, i like him ALOT! and i would really REALLY like to go out with him. and I would go out with him in a heartbeat but I dont know if he likes me. we talk alot at work but were not exactlly real good friends. I like all three of these guys and I know Dean wants me back, Cody i think likes me, and the Cody2 might like me. out of all these guys i like Dean the most. i like Cody2 the second most, and Cody i do really like him but not as much as the other two. I talk to Cody more than either of them. i see Cody2 more than eitehr of them too. (Dean lives in Polo and Cody lives in Oak Grove (I live in Kansas City (all the citys are in missouri))) Cody2 calls me alot Cody talks to me all the time at work but I hardly ever see or talk to Dean. I dont know which guy to go out with. but keep in mind that I really like all these guys but i still love Dean. (link)
you've answered your own question, honey. You like the two Codys, but yOU LOVE Dean... there's your answer. If it is real love, you will find a way to see him and talk to him.


ok all of my friends are having sex (and there all around 15 and 16, and i am 15.) And I don't feel like people our age are ready to have sex yet...but all of my friends are telling me how much fun it is, and they kept telling me how i need to lose it. I kept telling them that i'm not ready, but they keep pressuring me to have it. How can I get it throgh there head that i'm not ready and I don't want to lose it untill i'm ready? (link)
simple...walk away. if they are truly your friends, they will stop pressuring you, they shouldn't even be pressuring you in the first place! Sex is not to be taken lightly, and if you don't feel like you're ready, DON'T DO IT, and DON'T LET ANYONE MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO DO IT!! Your first time, whenever it happens, has to be on your terms, and you should tell your friends that. If they keep pressuring you, after you tell them...shout if necessary...stop hanging out with them. Or just change the subject, or simply say "I"m not ready, and I will not be pressured into it." Keeping your cool is your best bet, just coolly inform them that you are not ready, and you will not do it until you are ready, then bring in a new topic to talk about. If they are really your friends, they'll take the hint, and stop bugging you. Good Luck!


I have short hair that I can't do much with. I was just wondering if anyone has any styles that I can do the morning kind of quick. P.S. my hair is up to my shoulders. (link)
i also have short hair, but my hair is even shorter than yours. i have a pixie style bob cut..and there's always plenty of ways to style it! shoulder length hair can be difficult, but you could always get it layered, in a shag style if you like it. get some magazines and get some ideas from those as well. it couldn't hurt to go see your hair stylist either, he/she could offer you plenty of ideas and inspiration!
best of luck!


i have this really embaressing problem with underarm sweating. i've always had this problem ever since i started puberty and my sweat glands started, for lack of a better word at the moment, working. now, it seems like i start sweating at random times. heat isn't even a factor, somtimes i sweat after i come out of the shower or a few minutes after i wake up, even if i haven't done anything physical. what's happening to me? and how can i get rid of this problem? please don't tell me to buy those expensive sweat reducing chemical things because i can't afford it. thank you (link)
i totally empathize with you, i had a similar problem. i didn't really find a solution to cure it, but i had ways of getting around it. if you are embarrassed by it, simply get a few cheap white tshirts somewhere and wear them under your regular shirts. they will absorb the moisture so that your pit stains don't show. wear lots of deodorant, and even get some deodorant soap. if it's really really bad, i'd talk to your doctor, you might have overactive sweat glands, and your doctor can help you. drink plenty of water and eat well..that might be contributing to it. best of luck, and i really do understand! as well, once your body has fully developed, and you are done with puberty ( if you aren't already) it should go away, like mine did. take care...and if all else fails, see your doctor!


16/f
i've never had a real relationship. im not fat, or ugly. i have a lot of friends but i can't seem to find a guy for me. every time i meet one, they sweet talk, and i fall for them and they get what they want out of me and then leave me. i fall for it everytime and i hate it because i am a mess because of it. i started doing really stupid things because im getting depressed. i hate that fact that i did that and im changing. but im still depressed. will i ever find someone for me? it seems all of my friends have found their special someone. whats wrong with me?? i dont want to be an easy peice of ass. but i am. i dont mean to be it just happens because all they need to do is tell me im beautiful and i cant say no. im longing for someone to care for me. and anyone i trust, they betray me.
help, or anything would be greatly appreiciated.

i think you need to stop looking for mr. right. you need to take a break from it, and just have time for you. i hate to say it, but if word is getting around that you're easy, then that is why guys are using you. of course they're going to tell you you're beautiful if they know they'll get what they want from you. an easier way to tell if a guy means what he says is to make him wait. if he stays with you, and waits, then you'll know he wants to be with you in more than just a sexual way. if you never hear from him again, you'll know he only wanted sex, and you'll also know you're better off without him. you are not a slut, you're not a whore. you are looking for love, and although you're doing it in the wrong way, you deserve to be loved. the right guy will come along. you're only 16, you have plenty of time to find mr. right. it's a good sign that you say you're changing,because that means you still value yourself. you need to realize that if you keep on the way you are, you could end up pregnant or diseased. for your own sake, take a break from romance, join a school club, or volunteer somewhere during the summer, or get a part time job. it will help keep you busy, and introduce you to even more people and friends who will value you, and help you realize that you're worth being valued for who you are, and not what you do. take care, and please be careful.


I'm 14 year old gurl. okay to my question..I like my moms bestfriends son, my mom and his mom have been friends since highschool and there now around 40 years old. Anyways I like her son and he likes me too..we have discussed dating eachother, and really want to but our parents won't let us because their afraid if we break up that it will destroy their friendship, I just really want to date and be with him but dont want my mom and his to hatte me for it.

(link)
I think you and the guy should sit down and have a serious talk with both your moms, let them know how you really truly feel. Once they realize how much you want this, they will understand, or they should understand. You also need to understand where they are coming from. They have been friends for a long time, and they do not want to lose each other. If you truly want to date this guy, then you need to make your moms understand. I can't guarantee anything, but once they know, seriously, how you feel...they might come around.


So there's this guy at work (we're both 17) that I really like. When ever we work together, I always talk to him, sit with him on my break and stuff. My other 2 friends that work with him in his department keep joking around that we should hook up, which makes me wonder if he talks about me or has told them something. I also don't want it to get out that I like him because he's a good friend of mine and i don't want it to be weird at work if i did make a move or if he knew I liked him. I gave him my e-mail address 30 days ago, so like a month ago, and he never did anything with it. no e-mails or anything. so i don't know if he does actually like me like that and i would prefer not to have to tell anyone about it 'cause i don't want him to find out......

What should I do??¿?? (link)
Hooking up with someone you work with can be awkward, and really exciting too! I've done it, once it ended badly, second time, well, we're still together... :) But if you like him, let him know. Guys can be pretty dense sometimes when it comes to signals and stuff, so maybe this time instead of your email address, give him your phone number, or ask for his. Just because he hasn't done anything with your email address doesn't mean he doesn't like you. Maybe he lost it, or maybe he doesn't have the internet, or something boring like that. If he doesn't know that you like him, he won't pursue it. But if you know that he likes you, and he knows that you like him, it will only be a matter of time before you hook up. If he doesn't like you, then at least you'll know, and you can try to move on.


Okay...I'm only 13 1/2 and I know what an orgasm feels like and I have them on purpose. I use this massage thing that you're supposed to use on your back. I keep thinking i'm really abnormal because i "like" having them and I do it about every other day...am I too young to be doing this? SHOULD I be doing it? No one knows I do it at all. IF it's okay for me to be doing this, would it be okay to tell my mom maybe? I share everything with her and she's a nurse so I don't think she'd be freaked out or anything but i think i would be very embarrassed if even she knew. PLEASE HELP! (link)
First of all, honey, you're going through puberty, and what you're doing is NORMAL. Chances are, everyone, and I mean everyone in the world, has done something similar when they were thirteen, and probably much later on into their teens! And of course you like having them, an orgasm is a wonderful feeling, you are supposed to enjoy it! If you're old enough to like it, you're old enough to do it! It's your choice if you tell your mom or not, if you're not comfortable with her knowing, then don't tell her. The most important thing is that you know that you are normal, what you're doing is not wrong, it's not gross, and it's not freakish. I say enjoy yourself, as long as you're comfortable, that's all that matters. :)
