about

I'm Christina, and I'm 27. I tend to be brutally honest when I give advice or an opinion. I don't tell people what they want to hear but rather what they need to hear. They don't always appreciate it at first, but I usually get a thank you in the end.

I have 15 tattoos, and 8 piercings. I'm married and just gave birth to a baby boy in May. I'm currently a SAHM so you can find me taking care of my son and binge-watching television while he naps.

advice

okayy. so at lunch i was walking past the table of popular guys and some of them im KINDA freindly with and there like ohh max likes you and come and talk to him and i just kinda blow him off because there is no way that max likes me. i mean. hes not hott or anything but just were friends you know. so i walk to my table and what ever. and at gym "steve" who was there was like ohh max likes you and stuff and im like ohhh yeahh sure. and then i started bugging him about who he likes/liked. and then max comes over and is like ohh yeah dont believe them or anything. i was like i kno kno i believe you. and then he told me the reason they said that ( all the guys at the table) was that max was like to this kid kevin oh you like wendy (who like has friends and everything and isnt like a nerd but not like popular and not the PRETTIEST but yeah) and then so kevin was like oh you like (me) samantha. and then yeah. so like were they making fun of me? like i have friends okay. im not like friendless. and im friendly with some popular people you know. and like trust me im not UGLY. im actually sorta pretty. im not being like concited but i can be really pretty. =] haha. so yeah where they? i already told me friend (ryan whos like kinda popular) to go yall at keven =] ha.

I couldn't even understand what you wrote.

But I doubt they were making fun of you.

well i've been listening 2 metal and stuff like that for the last couple of years. i still like it but i would also like 2 listen 2 some rock.
so does any1 know any good rock bands?

To the girl below me -- I haven't listened to Green Day in years because they got too political & it wasn't about the music & the fans for them anymore. So basically, if you want someone's political beliefs shoved down your throat, listen to Green Day.

As for other bands, this is the music section on my MySpace profile.

hi am a 11/female
i am in the 5th gr. and now if anybody is a little chubby, u don't get any boys, or u get teased. and am 11 yrs. old and i want to lose some lbs. i really don't want to get my mom involed because i don't feel comfortable about talking about weight yet with her. so i can't get a video or a south beach diet or sdomething like that. how do i lose 10 to 15lbs. i am 11 and i am about 110 lbs.(105)

You're 11. You're not allowed to be on this site. You have to be 13 to be here.

ok. i have a friend and all the boys think she is sooo hot and cute ect. she stole my crush that i had on since the 3rd. gr. and on. whenever i am around with her i get really mad and frustratied. what do i do? and don't think she is a bad friend or anything.. she is so nice and sweet.
P.S.-i am in 5th grade, if that helps
P.S.S- please don't tell me "oh. just tell her your real feelings":i would be teased the rest of my life.

You're not even supposed to be on this site. You're like 10. You need to be 13 to come here.

i wanted to send my old bestfriend a scrap book. ANd i wanted to put poems in there not sad ones but poems saying what happend and why did we grow apart ya know.. So if anyone has any good poem sites or ideas it would be very great thanksss

www.wittyprofiles.com

They have a poem section.

I'm a stranger to myself. I don't know why I do the things I do. I don't know who I am. I don't know who I want to be. I don't know what I like. And I don't know when I'm pretending to like something. I really don't know anything about myself. I change from week to week. Last week I hated rock and emo , had big earings, curly hair and hip-hop clothes. This week I'm all about emo, dark clothes, lots of eye-liner. Everyone's calling me a poser and a fake. And I guess I am. That's ok, I don't care what they think. I just want to find the real me, but how? How do I know when I'm pretending and when it's actually THE REAL me?

I'm almost 18, shouldn't I know by know?

Nope. No one really knows who they are or what they wanna do with life. Right now, I'm some 16 year old girl who wants to be a child pyschologist when she gets older. Who knows if that could change in the next few years? A few months ago, I didn't care about school or anything. I do now. I wear whatever I want & do whatever I want. I'm taking a guess, but I think about only 30% of people find out who they are & what they're about. About 20% don't care, another 20% choose the wrong path, and the other 30% do what they were destined to. Just keep changing & doing what makes you happy & you'll find out who you are eventually. And if you never do, then that's cool too. Everything doesn't have to be planned for you. Be spontaneous & fun.

Apparantly my myspace had been phished and I changed my password through the link in Tom's announcement (which he states is what you should do in the FAQ), so how come now everytime I edit my page (all my info had been deleted) and I go back to my home page my account has suddenly been phished again? What's up with that and does anybody how I fix it? I've read the unhelpful FAQ and I've changed my password at least 6 times, to random crap that nobody would ever guess. I've also even changed my e-mail adress for myspace. It's ridiculous. Anyway, has anyone found a way out of this?

Before you log in each time, check the URL. If it doesn't say MySpace, x out the site, and type the myspace URL in. If you're still getting hacked, it's a best bet to delete your account, make your new password super hard, and to always check link.

If you don't wanna go through that, then email Tom.

ahh so i dont know what to do. theres this [white] guy who recently got transferred to my school from a rather, mind you, 'ghetto' school in another county. hes like one of them skater guys but talks like a gangster kinda and is the total quiet but hard bad boy, but is a sweetheart when you talk to him.. kinda like eminems character in 8 mile. i dont know why, but recently ive become super attracted to guys like that. i guess its because he reminds me of my cousins ex, but i never liked my cousins ex like that?? so i dont know. anyway, ive talked to him once for like 5 minutes, so really i dont him at all, but im falling for him just because of his "type". and i have a boyfriend that im crazy about and no i dont wanna leave him. i just gotta snap myself out of likin this other guy, but i dont know how.. ahh annoying right? any help is appreciated! oh and hes in my class & lunch soo yeah kinda hard to avoid him because im obviously aware of his presence..

You don't actually like him, I just think you like his style. There probably isn't a way to stop liking him, but just remember you've got a boyfriend & it should snap you back into reality.

Ok, I'm 17/f and I have a problem with this guy. Last summer I got introduced to him through mutual friends. We hung out ONCE for a few hours the day before I went to San Diego on vacation. We just went to the park and then to hang out at a fast food place where the guy works. Well, I went on vacation and long story short, he told me he was IN LOVE with me and asked me out. I wasn't attracted to this guy in the slightest and the "love" thing weirded me out. So, I NICELY turned him down.

I didn't talk to him again until the next school year (this year) and he barely spoke to me. I was fine with that because I didn't even know him. Well, I just recently started talking to him online and everything is fine. He compliments me a lot but whatever. My best friend was telling me that he told her how much he likes me again and how "not even God" could help him with this one.

He asked me to go to the park with him last night (for today) and he was at work so he told me to call him when I woke up. Well, I'm volunteering today so I can't go anywhere, but I'm really confused. I feel really bad for him to reject him twice, but I'm not going to date him out of pity.

I just need a way to turn him down without making everything weird. The thing is, no matter how much he likes me, he won't talk to me at school or even at the prom! I'm in one of his classes and he just doesn't say anything to me. And at prom he ignored me completely but later told my best friend that he really wanted to dance with me but he was too nervous. If you like someone, don't you at least TALK to them?

I just need something to say to him to not piss him off or hurt his feelings. I don't want to lie with something like "I'm not looking for a bf right now" or "my parents won't let me date"...I want a real statement but I want to give a reason this time so he doesn't do it again.

I may be 17 but I've never had guy trouble like this before. Help!

Some people are so shy that they never end up talking to the person they like. That could be his case, obviously. If you're not looking for a boyfriend right now, then tell him that. He doesn't have to know that it's not true.

do the ppl from scarred the show on mtv and mtv2 have myspaces becasue alot of them are really hott and i would not mine seeing there myspaces but yes if any of you have them could you leave the links ? plzz&&&thanks

When you watch the show, pay attention to their names & then find their MySpaces. I don't watch it, but that'd be the easiest way.

guys get hard at night

what do girls get?

Nothing.

does anyone know why on myspace
when i try to put a picture caption it appears
".."

i use tinypic and i use the last code out of the 3 codes like it says

>.< help please!

You could've been typing the code wrong.

That should work.

ok so this is really weird but i was just stretching and i think i pulled a muscle in my boob. its right where the wire in an underwire bra is and i can't sit up straight without it hurting and i cant inhale fully without it hurting. i didn't even know we had a muscle there but if it is pulled or strained, how can i make it hurt less without medication or doctors.

Lay down & sleep. Ice it a bit just in case it starts to swell & to reduce pain, and take some tylenol. Also, try not to stretch that muscle or do much with it.

ok so everytime i have my period i get bloated. im a skinny person so when i get bloated i look pregnant. im not exaggerating, ill gain about 3 inches on my waist when im bloated. are there any foods to reduce bloating? why do woman get bloated when we have our periods?

Everyone get's bloated when they have their period, it's just a thing from PMS. Take Midol, it helps to prevent bloating or make it go down while you're on your period.

And for more info on your period:

I really like this guy, and I talk to him a lot. He sometimes can act weird over the computer. For example, he sometimes IMs me first, but sometimes he doesn't. When we talk, he can sometimes be a bit mean, like the other day, I said, "Yeah I just had to get a shot at the doctor's." And he said, "Do I really care?" He says things like that a lot, but I think that just may be his sense of humor.

Then, in the same conversation, he will write, "

He probably thinks of you as either a good friend, or more but it's hard to tell since he's sending mixed signals. You should probably talk to him about this yourself since he's the only one who can answer you.

I went to Spain for 9 days with my school and 3 other high schools around the country. The first day i started talking to a cute guy but i have been dating the same guy at home for over a year. While i was in spain me and the guy talked alot but never got any farther than a kiss on the cheek. We discussed alot about relationships and our futures. we live on opposite sides of the countries but on the last day he told me he really likes me and if he could he would come see me before he goes to college. I told him i liked him but we both still knew i had a guy at home. I am asking if its ok for me to like him because we automatically clicked and i dont want to hurt my boyfriend.

It's okay to be attracted to him, but doing anything with him or to even consider dating him would be trashy since you have a boyfriend & you live super far away.

Either way, you'd hurt your boyfriend if he found out.

IS there a way to get a pale face or skin?

Or just stay out of the sun & don't go tanning.
