the guy i like said he wanted to get closer to me, but the only way he could do so, is if i told him what i was thinking instead of telling him nothingall the time.. what does this mean?! (link)
It means that the guy is interested in you as well but at the moment he feels like you are holding your feelings, thoughts, and/or emotions back from him. It means that he wants/needs you to open up so he can as well and so he can get to kbow you better. It's not a bad thing, it's just going to take a little effort on your part. But, once you do this, he will most likely be able to open up more as well. It may be something that is hard for you, but just trust that it'll be okay. So, start telling him stuff, (ie: the emotions you feel, random thoughts) just anything to get y'all going. :)


im a 21 year old male and my girlfriend is 19 and 8 months pregnant.She's thinks i dont find her attractive anymore because it seems like ive lost my sex drive!!what should i do?? (link)
All women experience this kind of feeling during the pregnancy stages. You just have to be patient with her. Spoil her. Tell hoe beautiful you think she is both pregnant and not. Surprise her. Cook her favorite meal. Take her somewhere nice. Give her little kisses throughout the day. Buy her lingerie. Hug her. In essense, just give her tons and tons of your loving! Do something really romantic for her. Make it all about her for awhile. Explain to her that it isn't that you've lost your sex drive, you just want her to focus on getting ready to have a baby with her. When she's feeling back up to it though, y'all can and should make love again. Just be nice to her, that's all you can do. Things will improve. Good luck! :)


Okay, I wasn`t really sure what to put this under but okay. I am 13 years old and I have some clear, kind of gooey stuff that sometimes appears in my panties. I'm afraid to get fingered because of it. I'm afraid the guy will get grossed out. Could someone tell me what this is and how I could get rid of it?
Thanks I'll rate fives for good answers. (link)
Hey there. Well, first of all don't be alarmed. That "stuff" is completely natural to have. Every girl gets it. The proper term for it is discharge. It just means you are a healthy, maturing young lady. It can sometimes also indicate that you are going to start your period (either for the first time or for your regular cycle). Every girl gets different amounts of it. There is no real way to get rid of it though. It it bothers you that your panties are feeling wet and uncomforable just try wearing a pantyliner. It will keep you dry and the discharge will go on that. As for the fingering thing, you are still young. Make sure you do stuff like this only when you and the guy both are TOTALLY ready to do so. Don't feel pressured. You can say no to a guy. And if y'all do stuff, he shouldn't be grossed out because it's something that all girls have. Just remember be yourself! :)


what does a damp hot rag do for your face?

I have a open pour, is that going to always be there or is there a way to get rid of it? (link)
A damp, hot rag basically opens your pours and helps make it easier to remove dirt, blackheads, white heads, dead skin (exfoliate), and any other "stuff" that may be on your face/skin. The heat enables the pours to open. And no, an open pour does not usually stay there for ever, a cold wash cloth will reverse the process and close it up. Or just in time it will close. While it is open though, try getting any bacteria or anything that may be in it out. :)


I got a cyst removed from my back and got about 5 stiches in. How can I prevent getting a scar? (link)
Well, 5 inches isn't that bad of a scar and at least its on your back and not in a more noticeable place. You can try using a few things. Cocoa Butter, Neosporin, and my favorite and what I have found to be the most effective for my type of skin is Mederma. All the above mentioned options are over the counter and available at your local drug store. Mederma is the most costly. It is about 16 or so dollrs but it is very woth it. it takes scars away. Good luck, and don't worry! :)


Hey! Im only 13 yr's old..my mom messed up in the past and its taking college classes to get a good job, and my dad has a disease and so he cant work that often. My parents are also divorced...so My family doesnt have to much money. It sux having to much money..so I was wondering, are there ne jobs out there for 13 yr olds ( I am mature ) besides babysitting?

I do rate very high and send feedback..but i rly need help!!!

Thanx!!! (link)
Hey there. Well, first off I just want to etend my condolences to your and your family. I hope you dad can get better as soon as possible and I think that's great that your mom has the will to go back to school and try to do well. You should be really proud of yourself too. it is a hard thing to deal with at your age and you seem really level headed. Now as for some jobs try:
-Pet Sitting
-Plant Sitting
-Yard Work/Lawn Care
-Making Purses or other accesories and selling them at a craftsmall
-Delivering Newspapers
-Cooking for elderly or the unable
-Cleaning houses
-Making computer flyers and grapphics
-Garage Sale
-Bake Sale

Most people aren't going to jump at the chance to hire a 13 year old to do work for them, so you are going to have to make them want you. Try posting your name, number, and services in a community paper or neighborhood magazine. You may want to make a portfoliop or some type of resume to show people the kind of work you do. You could post flyers on signs in the area with your info on it. Just work hard and don't give up. If you need anymore ideas or help, or just need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me. Good luck, and God bless. :)


Ok, so. my first love, he was so amazing and i was in love with him & we broke up due to well me being depressed & not open with him about it.but now, were like best friends & i completely tell him everything & i cry to him when i need to & he cries to me, but my best friend recently told me she liked him (she has a boyfriend) and i like him also. i've never stopped. he has a girlfriend & told me that he likes me, his girlfriend & my best friend. i dunno, should i TRY to move on? (link)
Well, I'm sorry that you are having to go through all this. First loves are always a hard thing to deal with and get over. It's nice that you and yours have still remained good friends. That's great that the two of you can open up to one another. As for all this mess of he likes her she likes him stuff. I think you totally need to avoid that part. I think it's good that your best friend is honest with you and told you that she liked him. But a TRUE best friend would never go out with one of your exes or someone you still have feelings for. You should make it well known to her that you still like him. As for the guy, I think that what's meant to be will always find a way. I think that you shouldn't totally try to get over him in the sense of cutting him totally out of your life, but you should work on getting over him in the sense of BEING with him as more than a friend. In time, things will work out for the best. Try to learn to not depend on just your ex for what you are going through. Talk to other friends, famlily, counselor, etc. You'll get through it. In the mean time, don't focus on a relationship so much right now, just focus on having a good time! :)


Every night when I go sleep, I notice tears welling up at the edge of my eyelids for no reason. Its just totally random, I'm not even thinking of anything... Is it possible ,y eyes are just irritated after I've taken my contacts out from wearing them all day? Or is it just another body regulation thing like tapping your leg repeatedly?

(link)
Hey there. Well, what's happening to you isn't like totally weird or anything. Here's what it could be: I know you said you weren't thinking about anything, but you could unknowingly be thinking about something that makes you want to cry. Also, it is very possible like oyu said for your eyes to be watering from the wear of your contacts. Another thing is that sometimes people's eyes water because of allergies. There could be like a lot of dust in your room or in your sheets or something. Wash them and see if that makes a difference. And one last thing, you could have overproductive tear ducts. If that is the case, you'd need to see a doctor and they can help you out with that. If you need anymore help, let me know. :)


After my dad died, I've been having problems with myself. For a while I was okay. but recently i keep getting mad and feeling so...weird. So i started cutting, but now I don't know what to do. I can't stop...it feels so addictive. We have a spring trip soon to a water park and I don't want everyone to see my cuts. What should I do? (link)
Well, first of all, I am very sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is always a tough thing to do through. Nothing you can do or say is going to bring him back and as tough as it may be you need to accept that. You didn't do anything wrong. None of this is your fault. It is okay for you to feel sad or down. But also, think about your dad. Wouldn't he want you to live your life to it's fullest potential. Cutting is not the answer. I know it feels like it's the only thing you can control when everything isn't right, and you get this rush when you see the blood come out, but it is still not the answer. Try writing in a journal. Maybe seek the help of a counselor. Talk to your family. They are going throough the same thing. Support each other. Every time you think about cutting think about it like you are only hurting your dad and run and go tell someone that can get you to stop. Things will get better for you in time. Be patient. If some of your cuts have started to form scars, there is a cream called Mederma that is great. It fade out scars. It is available at drugs stores and it's like 15.99 or so. If they are still fresh wounds, put lots of neosporin on it. Stop cutting!!! If you need someone to talk to I am always here. :)


I would like to know so reasons why your period would stop in a healthy 41 year old.
(link)
Hmm, well I would suppose that a female this age would know the answer to this, but I will go ahead and answer it anyways. First off, are you sure your period has fully stopped? How long has it been? You may have just skipped a month. Are you on birth control? Maybe you messed up the order of the white pills. That could make you skip. Are you sexually active? You could maybe be pregnant. You could also be going through menopause. While it is a little early, it is still possible. Are you experiencing hot flashes and things of that nature. If so, that could be it. If you really are concerned and don't think you are just late, seek the help from a doctor (gyno). Best of luck. :)


i like this one guy bob* and he told like everyone he likes me and this one girl sara* who is like gorgeous x10000 and theres no way i can compete with her so i told him today i liked him and he was like cool? and then his profile if full of stuff about sara. should i move on or try it out? (link)
Hmm, well you may not like what I have to say. I think "Bob" just like to have he attention. Guys are like that sometimes. The fact that he tells other people that he likes you says a lot, but at the same time so does the fact that he has a profile full of "Sara". I think you needto try talking to Bob. Ask him if he is at all interested in you, or if things with him adn Sara are serious and going to last. The worst he can say is that he doesn't want to be with you. And if that is the case, don't feel in adequate. I am sure you are a GREAT girl that any guy would be lucky to have. And I am not just saying that, so don't think that either. Don't ever try to convince yourself that you don't deserve something you want. Go after it. So try talking to Bob first, but don't cause any drama for he and Sara, and then if you see that there's not a GOOD chance, or that he just likes to mess around and get attention, MOVE ON. There are tons and tons of guys worthy of you. Good luck! :)


this is gunna sound like a ridiculous question but sometimes my poo is bloody and occasionaly green is this normal or should i seek help? (link)
It's not that of a ridiculous question. That happens to some people. Your poop shouldn't really be abnormal colors. However, if it is ony SOMETIMES green that's okay usually. It just means you have recently eaten something that's really green. Like spinach, brocoli, lettuce, celerey, etc. As for there being blood in your excrents, it shouldn't really be happening. Unless of course you are a girl and this is happening when you are on your period. If it occurs, it could be a couple of things, you could have maybe recently eaten beets? Or, you could have hemroids, there are tons of creams and medicines for that. And lastly, not to scare you, but if this is reoccuring you could possibly have collin problems IE: collin cancer. If this keeps happening please seek the help from a doctor. Best wishes. :)


ok i was gone from school two days this week, and im a little confused on my math homework. this is the problem im working on 4x^2+8x-21=0 ((^2=squared)).. my question is should i add 21 to both sides or just start factoring. i tried to just factor, and i could never get the signs to be write for everything. thanks (link)
Okay I am pretty sure I have the right mehods and answers. Okay so like you need to add the 21 to both sides so then your new equation is 4x^2+8x=21
Then, pull out a 4x. So now your equation looks like this: 4x(x+2)=21
Now all that is left is to solve both for x. So you take 4x=21 which then becomes x=21/4 if left improperly or 5 1/4 if made into a mixed fraction. Then you take the x+2=21 and it becomes x=19.
So your two solutions are x=19 and x=21/4, or x=5 1/4. To double check that these solutions are right you can plug the answers in to the original equation (plug them in for x). If you get a true statement then you know they both work. Hope this helped :)


OK, well there is this guy who i really really like and he has a gf. I really like him and i want him and his recent gf to break up really bad. Should i tell him i like him or just wait to see what happens? (link)
Well, I wouldn't come right out and tell him that you like him. That would just cause unnessary drama and conflict. I think you should just make him aware that you are interested. Drop hints, flirt slightly, talk to him more, ask questions,etc. Things always work out for the best if you let them go down their natural path. Esepcially with relationships, you should never force anything. If it so happens that he break up, don't jump at the chance to be with him, console him first, be his friend, then go in for the kill! Haha. Just be patient. Your time will come. :)


Ever since sophmore year when i found out about prom I have wanted to go, I buy the magazines to pick out pretty dresses and dream about yummy food. This year I've been asked by one of my FRIENDS to go- but my best friend thinks that my date is trash and that I only want to go to make people mad ex. people covet my date, my boyfriend (who is a lower classman and cannot attend prom. How do I explain to her that i want to go just to have a fun time and that i have the BEST OF INTENTIONS for going? Please help because she is my BEST FRIEND and I really value her opinion and friendship, although we don't always agree on things. (link)
Yeah, so Elizabeth, I know you are your own person and you can make choices for yourself. And I could possibly just be being too cautious about this but that's me and you know that. I know how much you love stuff like that and I know that you would probably enjoy yourself. But at the same time I am seeing situations that can arise that I don't think you are seeing right now. Elizabeth, I know you and you know that. I also know that no matter how much you say it isn't I know there is a part of you even if it's small that wants to go to Prom just to kind of see what you have been missing around Taylor and kind of to make Bry mad and to just be there to be there. I know Steven is just your friend, and I don't think you are hurtful enough to hurt Will, but you give into people easily and with that someone is bound to get hurt. Also, I do not think it is fair for you to make your parents spend a ton of money on it, or to make Steven and his family etc. I want the best for you and the only reason I am disappointed is because you are such a nice girl and NOT trashy and Steven and all them are trashy, and I don't want you to have that label. If you are going to go, I think that you should be ready to reap the consequences of what's going to hapen with you and Steven and you and Will. I'll still always be your BEST FRIEND no matter what happens. Just go with what your HEAD and HEART are telling you. :)


hi, i have 3 brothers and one sister, ages 2-9, im not sure how old they are lol, but seee my problem is that i babysit when i get home which is about 4, and i babysit them to about 11:30 or twelve, and we cant hire a babysitter to help. they all have a disorder which makes them hyper..all the time, i can never settle them down, one kids in the kitchen with the hose (im serious).. another is calling 911, ..and another is making extreme bubbles in the bathtub thats overflowing!! i cant control them and i feel hopeless!!!! i keep on getting such bad grades because i dont have time to do my homework. i spend most of the day cleaning up the house that they messed while im at school, and the other half trying to get them to bed. its so hard..i live with my older brother because i dont we dont live with our parents and theres no way to contact them..long story. so what im trying to ask is for suggestions on what i should do (and i dont mean like tv..or coloring.. because thats impossible. and i have no friends to help me..but i dont want any) so thank you for any suggestions at alL!! ***sorry for making this ques so long!*** thanks. -AlExA (link)
Wow, okay. I totally feel for you. Let's see now. First of all, you should be proud of yourself on how responsible and determined you are. That's a really admirable trait to have at your age. Okay, so as to what to do with all the kids you have to watch. First of all you need to learn to be stern with them. I'm not saying to beat them or anything, but try time outs, take away previalages like certain toys, and spank them. I know it may be hard to put your foot down, but it has to be done. Even if they cry, kick, and scream. I think you should try to get more structured with them as well. Like in your mind set aside time for them to play, eat, bath, bed. You mentioned that you have to watch them til almost 12 am, why aren't they in bed by then? They should be in bed no later than 8:30. If they don't listen to you, just spank them and discipline them. Also, you may want to try to make deals with them, like say okay if you clean up your mess and play quietly for a set amount of time I will let you have ice cream. Work together. Be patient. As far as the homework thing, try to get as much done as you can in school and then when you get breaks fit some in there. Keep up the good work. Things will get better. :)


There is this girl I REALLY want to ask to prom. But the problem is she says she doesnt really do the school dance thing. We went to the movies recently, and she said she had a great time. I'm afraid to make a wrong move, cause I do value her friendship. I think our personalities would compliment each other very well, but I am not sure how she feels. Should I try to ask her, or should I ask someone I dont know as well? This girl has really helped me through some hard times, and I think she would be fun to go with. (link)
Well, this is kind of a tough sitution. Prom is supposed to be a great and meorable experience. Do you think if you went with this girl it wouldb e for her and you both? Even though you said she liked the movies with you, the dance thing may really not be her cup of tea and you can't really force a person into liking it. You have to respect that even if you REALLY want to ask her. I think you should casually bring up the subject to her. I know it kind of ruins the surprise aspect of it and stuff, but this will give her and you both a better chance to really understand the other's point of view. Prom is expensive, so you shoudl take someone that you would have a good time with, who would have a good time, and someone that's not going to be a waste of your money. Just try talking to her about all this first. And if it doesn't end up that you go with herm, just take agod friend and I am sure the two of you will have a nice, special night. Good luck. :)


I think I might be gay and have it bad for my bestfriends brother? (link)
Okay, I'm pretty sure I know who this is who has been sending me all these questions. But anyways I am going to answer the question as if someone was really in a situation like this.
There's nothing wrong iwth being gay. You can't deny who you are. Embrace it. If you are a teen, which I am guessing you are, it can be a tough time to deal with an issue such as this one. You need to think about if this is just a phase you are going through or if this is really for real. If it is, try telling your close friends and family. Chances are, even if they may not agree with it, they will still lvoe you and accept you and most importantly support you. If your best friend's brother is really gay, then maybe mention a subtle comment to him. I think you may just think you like him though because he is around and available. So really dig deep to understand anddiscover yourself. Whatever you decide, remember, you're only human and there is nothing wrong with being gay. :)


I am getting to know this girl who seems nice, but her friend told me she is a slut who likes to get it on with people she barely knows. What should I do? (link)
Well, I think the best thing for you to do would just to be to continue to get to know this girl. You can't judge a person soley based on what others say about them. Girls talk a lot of smack, and it's hard to say what's true and what isn't. I wouldn't mention this gossip to the girls because that will it will just cause uneeded drama between everyone. Also, this friend of hers might be jealous and wants to keep you from her friend. Think about that. You need to judge a person based on their actions around you and with you. Not from word of mouth. Sure, sometimes these things are true, so keep that in mind. Just observe things and get to know her better. Give her a chance to prove the rumor wrong. If it turns out it is not true, then great, and if it is true and that is not the kind of girl you are looking for, then just move on. :)


I think I'm crazy. What should I do? (link)
I think everyone is crazy to an extent. :) Just a natural part of human nature. Uhm, but I don't know why I'm actually trying to answer this question seriously since I'm pretty sure who asked this and I know you didn't mean it seriously. So, uhm I guess go to the doctor and get you some crazy pills? Yeah, or just continue being crazy. But seriously, if you have a problem, you really have to get help! :)
