I understand that you must feel completely powerless in this situation, but depending on how old you are, maybe in a few years she can move back or you two can arrange to visit each other. Until then, there are plenty of ways to keep in touch- aim, email, myspace, phone calls, texts...hoefully you can work out a good system.

i need to get my nails done and my toenails done. I'm gonna buy fake full acrylic nails for my finger nails, but then I don't know what to do with my toenails? I need to make them longer and i want to have like a french manicure look. I was thinking about buying acrylic nails for them too and just gluing them on my whole toenail but i don't know it thats smart or not. What shoudl i do? I am NOT going to go to a nail salon and get them professionally done so do NOT bring that up. I'm looking for somethign I can buy in stores liek target, kmart, etc. Thank-you.
p.s.
Does anybody know of some really good nail glue that last while you go swimming and has your fake nails stay on for a long time? thnx (link)
|
Fake nails for toenails (even when professionally done) are the trashiest things I have ever seen. Please reconsider this. You don't want your toenails to be longer- that does not look attractive or well-groomed. You can do it yourself, it's simple. Remove polish, cut, file, buff, apply polish and topcoat.
For your fingernails- even the highest quality and most expensive/eloborate brand of do-it-yourself acrylics ALWAYS come out looking fake and cheap (like "look at that girl, I can't believe she can't even afford to get her nails done and did that instead"). In addition, they might last a maximum of three days- and usually fall off after one or two. I have tried them all, trust me here. If you are trying to save money, skip the fakes and just keep your nails filed and polished, it'll look far better then the fake stuff, even if they are short.
Hope this helped and will save you some time/money/embarasssment.

i have a wart on my leg. i have heard that putting duct tape on it helps or something. is this true? by the way, i am 15/f and i already have a doctor's appointment for this so don't tell me to go to the doctor. (link)
|
I have read the duct tape remedy, and it involved weeks of reappling the tape and pulling it off. Meanwhile, a doctor can freeze it off in 30 seconds. You choose.
You can even buy over the counter wart freezing kits- also take about 30 seconds and you can do it yourself. Pretty cheap too. Check out the drug store.

I have been seeing a 31 year old recently (about 6 months ago) seperated guy. This guy is great and I am finding myself falling for him. We have a strong sexual chemistry and i cant stop thinking about him ...
He seems to feel the same.
Problem: He was married , has 2 kids (2 and 4) and his wife cheated on him. He sought counselling at the time with her, however she was adament that there was to be no reconcilliation.
He continued to see a therapist up until we met about 2 months ago...
He still contacts his wife weekly to see his children once a fortnight...
Im worried i am just a rebound??? I really see myself falling for this guy... (link)

I have several friends who have gone through separations and divorces and each and every single one not only went through a period (the first year after the separation) of casually dating and exprimenting sexually with multiple partners,but also frequently returning to their ex's for one night stands. This happened regardless of their desire to start a new relationship with someone. It just never worked out, it seems like an extended healing period is needed before something new can truely begin. Just keep this in mind, your man could be an exception but you definitely need to protect your emotions.
|
so i'll start by telling you a bit about myself.
i am 15 f. i don't want to sound arrogant but yes, i am popular which is why i don't get what is going on. I am vasrity cheerleader as a sophmore and have no trouble w/ guys and have alot of girl friends. so this is my question...
i got into a figth with this girl and it got bad, but girls are catty. she tried to ruin my reputation, but i ruined her life =] i got her kicked off of class vice president and her friends hate her. but to be fair, she really deserved it im not kidding. she posted pictures of me that were like edited and crap to make it look like i was naked, like photocopying my head onto the pic or w/e. and posted it on alot of the lockers. idk why she did it, shes just jealous b/c im dating her ex bf. seems to me like SHES the sociopath not me...
so after this i got in trouble, the school sent me to a therapist to talk about why i act the way i do. he diagnosed me a sociopath. But um... sociopaths are psycho anti-socials and im the center of attention. Im not a freak, i love shopping and guys and they say just b/c im a little decieving and like it my way, makes me a sociopath???
can somebody please explain to me how a popular varsity cheerleader can be a sociopath because i am way not antisocial. (link)

To be antisocial or a sociopath don't not mean you are crazy or physcho or a serial killer in training. It's a personality disorder that lots of people have. I am very similar you you actually, that's why I took an interest in your question. You are narsisistic as well, vindictive and vengeful, am I right? Maybe a little bit of a bully? Just like me! It's just the type of person that you are, there isn't any "cure" because it isn't really "wrong", just different then the majority of people in the world. That is what a personality disorder is. That's not to say that it's ok to be a bitch, or to make people's lives a living hell just because you can..it explains why you are more likely to do that them most people would be. I personally don't see what's wrong with what you did at all, the ho deserved it. Of course, I guess that's why they say we have the same thing.
I'm 24, so I'll just tell you that as you get older you will continue to be Miss Popular and everyone will be intimidated by you. Just try to be a little nicer sometimes to make your life easier.
Hope I helped.

My breasts hurt a little... mostly the right one. I'm not really sure why. My boyfriend was groping a bit last night but he wasn't doing it hard. I don't know... could it also be my bra? The one I was wearing today is a little bigger than what I usually wear. (link)
| |
PMS causes slight breast swell, which leads to soreness in most women.
|
When are you more likely to get pregnant... Like around when you get your period or someother time?
And if your taking the pill is stilll more likely (link)
| |
That is the average time that most women ovulate (14 days after the start of your period), but everyone is a little different. Plus sperm can live inside of you for up to 7 days, which means that a big portion of the month you are at risk of pregnancy. If you are on the Pill, and you take it at the same time everyday, you are over 99% protected against pregnancy- all month long.

ok you are supposed to start the sunday when you get your period right? that is what the planned parenthood lady told me but are supposed to start when you first get your period or when it ends? thanks. (link)
| |
The first Sunday you come across after you start bleeding. Honestly, when you start doesn't matter. They tell you that to line up the days and keep track of exactly what's what in your cycle. You could start on a randon tuesday and as long as you take the pills on schedule, it'll be exactly the same.

i'm suppose to get my period soon. a few weeks ago i had random bleeding twice. the first time it was a lot, but the second time it wasn't as much. it happened after exercising both times. it stopped bleeding after about an hour so it wasn't my period. then about 2 days ago, i felt this really sharp sticking pain in my stomach, under my underwear line. it felt..like something was sticking me & it was pretty sharp. i also had pain in my armpits & near my belly button. i know it isn't appendix er anything like that & i was wondering if that had to do with my period?? since then, i haven't felt cramping er anything so it doesn't really feel like its coming. any ideas on what that pain is & if it has to do with an overy, an egg dropping??
thanks!! (link)
| |
Yep, it could be! Period pains are different for every girl, and bleeding will be unpredictable and irregular for quite awhile. It could come tomorrow, or still a long time from now. Don't stress out, just carry a pad in your purse all the time, just in case.

My stools are generally of flowing consistency(almost liquid form).What
does it indicate of the health of my digestive system.What are the
remedies.
(link)
| |
This is typical of someone with Crohn's Disease, Colitis, or Inflammitory Bowl; but those diseases are accompanied by a lot of pain and other symptoms. If this has always been normal for you, there is no reason to worry. If not, and it doesn't correct itself in a few weeks, I would see a doctor. In the meantime, take Immodium, go easy on the fiber, and drink a lot of fluids to prevent dehydration.

k, 2 questions.
1. is bare minerals worth the money? whats good & bad about it
2. would it be good for my skin type(i have combonation skin, and around my nose my skin is flaky even when i put moisturizer on, so sometimes liquid makeup makes it look worse, because under my nose is red & really flaky,idk why its been like that for like the past year, so the makeup makes it look disgusting & cakey & just weirdd loll)
thanks (link)
|
1) I'm not sure what that is, if it's a product ( I am something of a product expert) and I haven't heard of it...well I would hold off on spending the money just yet.
2) I used to have that same problems as a child, apply some hydrocortisone cream to the flakey area and use as few products as possible to cover it up. Let it breath. It's an allergy response of the skin, a type of eczema.

I get these sharp pains occasionally in my vagina. Like maybe one or two a day every few weeks to months. I don't know why. It's random and lasts a few seconds. Could I have an infection or something? (link)
| |
It does sound rather unusual, talk to your GYN and get her opinion.
|
this is probably the wrong category. again. but oh well.
i've been asking lots of questions lately so sorry.
okay. this is goingn to sound dumb but whatever. when i get horny i masturbate, and blahblah. but once i climax, i'm done, and i'm just like, "okay. whatever. how could i not resist doing that?" i don't know why, and it's kind of annoying. maybe i should just stop doing it so much and then my 'orgasm' if that's even what it is, would last longer.
i also feel kind of guilty afterwards, because i'm already paranoid of having something happen to my family or pets, and though i'm not really, really religious i do believe in god, and i pray occasionally, so i'm worried that he's going to punish me for masturbating, even though i'm not hurting anyone or thinking of anyone when i do it.
sorry my questions are all kind of messed up but i don't want to ask people in real life. haha.
thank you. (link)

OH honey it isn't a sin! Feel free to do whatever you please with yourself, in fact it would be a little unhealthy not to. It's perfectly normal, just not talked about very much amoung young women. And as you continue and learn what you like, your climaxes will be different....sometimes long and sometimes short. Don't you stress.

13/f
I have a really big and annoying problem: I pretty much like every guy I come across. It's really annoying... all I do is stare at them. And it's not just guys from school! It's celebrities too. I'm so tired of it; I feel like I can't concentrate. I've had a boyfriend before, but I dumped him because he wasn't a good boyfriend. Does this have anything to do with it? What should I do? (link)
| |
It's just your age sweetie, you'll grow out of it. It's the raging hormones and the "mystique" of the opposite sex. Pretty soon they won't seem so elusive and mysterious, and you'll be able to have real relationships with them. It ought to make it feel better that boys your age are going through the same thing.

I am a 19/f,I met dat guy online 2 months ago he gave me his number,I called him the same day Sinca dat day we keep on talkin we talk until 2 or 3 in da mornin we don't know each other but we send each other pictures.He keeps on tellin me dat he loves me and he wanna married me ,and the way he talks to me make feel that he is not lying. Do you think that relationship will last? (link)

You can not possibly be 19 years old.

I am 13 female and I am not sure if i am gay but I have a big crush onthis girl I have never loved girls before,been with a girl or kissed a girl.I went out with boys only.I really love her and its making me love sick and I am scared to tell her cause I don't want our friendship to end.I am not sure if she feels the sameway about me and if I tell she might panic and tell everyone and wreck all my friendships (link)
| |
There is a really good possibility that she WILL panic, not want to be around you anymore, and tell everyone. That's just what a lot of kids do at 13. I'm sorry, you seem really distraught over this...that's why I had to give you my two cents. I don't think you should say anything because your age is a very volitile one. Having a "crush" on a girl doesn't make you a lesbian, maybe you are and maybe you aren't. I think it might be just that there are many things about her that you really like, maybe you wish you could BE her in a way. Maybe you think she is really beautiful and are mistaking your notice of her looks as romantic attraction. I would wait until your a little older and less cofused about your feelings before expressing them to a potential partner.

I bite my nails and they look really bad. So on special occasions I buy fake nails at like target or something and glue them on. They look pretty good. The only problem is that the glue is never sturdy enough and can never hold my fake nails down to my real nails. Where can I buy glue that is able to hold them down and keep them fully attached to my real nails in water for up to 4 hours! What nail glue can i get and where can i buy it? Thank-you (link)
| |
I don't know of ANY nail glue or fake nails that are of the quality you want. I wanted to reply because I used to bite my nails too. If you ever want a sure-fire way to grow them out, get silk wraps done at the salon. They look like acrylics but done mess up your real nails. When you get them taken off your nails look fantastic!

My BF still speaks to his ex-gf. She lives in a different state but they chat on MSN. They were together over a year. I guess I'm a pretty jealous person, but I actually don't believe in being friends with your exes. I'm not friends with any of mine (I don't hate them though) It's causing me a lot of worry and upset because they've broken up and got back together several times and I'm afraid its going to happen again. would it be unreasonable for me to ask him to stop speaking to her? when i asked him how he felt about her, he said they won't get back together because she no longers likes guys... but I dunno. Doesn't sound very convicing to me. What should I do?
thanks (link)

It isn't very convincing because it's BS. It's disrespectful to you for him to continue to talk to her, no matter what her sexual preference of the moment is. I'd be livid and suspicious if I were you.
