Condoms are 98% effective, and can break if you do not use them correctly.

There's no size you "should" be wearing; your boobs will grow when they're ready. When I was 13, I was already in a B cup, 14, B cup, and 15, a B cup. So really, it all depends on your body type and when your body starts to develop. No worries!

Good Luck!

I'm a little confused on what your direct question is, but I'll tell you what I think:
-"Mark" is quite the dumbass
-break up with him


Sorry, I don't mean to be a bitch about this, but I think I would say it's time to let go of him. It sounds to me like you're just not comfortable with the moves he's trying to make, and it also sounds like that's all he wants you for. I would move on, because someone like that is just not worth doing anything with in a relationship. And my main advice: don't give in to him AT ALL just because you think he'll love you more, because you think you love him or to make the relationship better, because it won't work. He was cleary implying sex, and if that's all a guy wanted from me, he could kiss his sorry ass goodbye. So, that's just my opinion, and please, don't take this as offensive; I don't mean to be rude to you or to Mark, but, I'm just telling you to use your intuition, and to use it wisely.

Good Luck!

CVS is a good place to start. You can pretty much get good straightners anywhere you look, but I shop at CVS. I refuse to buy anything but Conair, so the brand is your choice, but I use the Conair straighter;;it's black, has 25 heat settings, and heats up in 60 seconds. I'm sorry for not knowing the direct name for it, but it's pretty easy to find and works great on mainly any hair type. (Even though I have light and wavy hair naturally, my friend bought this and she has thick and VERY curly hair, so trust me, it works.)

Enjoy and good luck!

P.S. This costs about $25.00

As a level 1 moderator, this question is the absolute gayest question. :( Not only have I seen this question come up about 10,000 times, but but there is really no answer. It mainly comes naturally; you can't follow steps.

Oh god. I know how you feel. I went through this phase with my parents during the summer. I think you should start off my showing them you are more responsible. And if that doesn't really get you anywhere, try sitting down and talking with them, and just be straight-forawrd with telling them how you feel. If they don't give you a chance to do or say anything without them being top-notch and uptight, just keep your cool, (stay calm) and just act like you normally would. (And that doesn't mean being "bitchy")Maybe if you try talking to them, they'll open up to you and they'll let you know what's up without any yelling, screaming, or arguing.

Good Luck!

Taking a break doesn't mean he wants to break up with you. It just basically means that he needs some space to himself. He may be getting bored in the relationship, or he is just confused on how the relationship is going. While you guys are "apart", don't bother him and try pumping him with questions, or chances are, he probably will end the relationship. So, really, just let him do his thing, and see how it goes.

Good Luck!

The answer to your question would be to stay away. If your friend is barely talking to you now (for whatever reason) and you don't want to lose your best friend, I wouldn't do anything. Her ex is either a player or he is just desperate to cover up his feelings of missing your friend. Either way, I wouldn't do anything with him. It's really not a good idea.




Jess♥

Okay, I'll admit it too-breaking up with your boyfriend over myspace is not a good idea-it's just dumb. But I'm not criticizing your decision, because I know how hard breaking a relationship off face-to-face can be.(Although doing it personally is more sincere.) Yes, guys can be total jerks, I would know, because a guy I knew a few months ago did almost the exact same thing to me, although he said I slept with him and I didn't. Anyways, the thing I would try to do first is I would try to confront him, when there's a chance you won't be interrupted by anyone or anything. If and when people consult you about the situation, all I would do is simply say, 'Yes, I admit to breaking up with him over myspace. It wasn't the smartest thing to do, and I regret it. But it's over between us and really, there's no point in talking about how we broke up.' (That's definitely what I would say) If you can't talk to him personally, try calling him, and if he doesn't answer or take your call, leave him a voice mail explaining that you don't appreciate how he's acting, and just say pretty much what you would say to anyone else. (We broke up __days/weeks/months ago and I regret doing what I did and how I did it, but if you ever did that to me, I wouldn't go behind your back and start spreading things that weren't true, etc.)

Good Luck!

I don't think it's very possible that you're pregnant. Although you had sex and missed your period last month, you got the beginning of this month's. Even though it was light pink, I don't think that has anything to do with the fact that you may be pregnant, especially because your test came out negative. So, really, my advice is that you are not pregnant. But if you're still unsure, consult a doctor or a trusted adult.

Jess♥

Okay, so you're popular. That kind of solves part of your problem right there. Most guys that are jocks and preps or whatever group the "popular" guys are in, all they wanna do is hook-up with the "popular" girls. There is really nothing you can do about the situation, mainly, because you just need to wait for the right guy to come along. And that's no joke. I know it sounds cheesy, but it is the absolute truth. I would just wait for the guy that loves you for you, someone you click with, and someone who doesn't really care what people label you as. I know this guy sounds impossible to find, but trust me, he's out there. The best advice I can give is not to give in to those guys, and just do your best to focus on school, friends, and family for right now.

Jess♥

Basically it means, penetrating or breaking your hymen when you have sex for the first time.


Jess♥

If you ask my, whether you're Christian or not, I personally think that you should wait for sex until marriage. Now, if you're as sexually mature as you say you are, and you think you are both ready and willing, go for it. But that doesn't mean I am encouraging sex in any way. Also, emotionally, you need to be ready; For example:

-guilt
-hurt
-loneliness


And also, physical consequences, like:
-preganancy
-STD's

So, really, consider your decision before you act on it.

Jess♥

In my opinion, I would never call her a slut, but I would make her out to be a little easy for guys. I think it's okay to kiss and maybe make-out on the first date, but having sex is just out of the question.

Comforting a grieving person entails offering support and allowing the person to go through whatever he or she is feeling.


STEP 1: Allow the person to talk about his grief and express his feelings. Listen without offering advice or interrupting.

STEP 2: Be patient with the grieving person's changeable moods. It's normal for someone who is grieving to alternate between anger, sadness, numbness and acceptance.

STEP 3: Give the person as much time as he needs to grieve. Telling him to 'get over it' or 'let it go' won't help him grieve any faster.

STEP 4: Ask the bereaved what you can do to help. Try not to get frustrated if he doesn't know what he needs.

STEP 5: Offer suggestions of what you could do to help. For example, does the grieving person need more space? Does he want you to be around more? Are there tasks or errands he needs done?

STEP 6: Show affection such as hugs or handholding if the bereaved seems receptive. If he seems uninterested in affection, try not to get irritated - this will pass with time.

STEP 7: Encourage the grieving person to join a grief support group. He can call his doctor for a referral or look in the community service section of the yellow pages for grief support services.

STEP 8: Urge the grieving person to get professional help if he's so depressed that he's unable to function day to day. Assist him in setting up an appointment with a doctor to discuss counseling or possible medication.


Tips & Warnings
There is no 'correct' amount of time to mourn a loss. The grieving period varies with the individual.

Be sensitive to significant dates such as birthdays, holidays and the anniversary of the death or loss; the grieving person may find these especially difficult times.

I think you should decide on what you want, and whether or not you want to go out with him. But, since you are a minor and all, considering, you may want to follow your parents' rules, and basing on the comments of your friends...well, that's your call. (Are they saying that because they're jealous, or because it's true?) Follow your heart;; and if I were you, I would give it your best shot. (:

The only way to actually get taller, is by growing! The ab lounge may indeed tone up your abs and slim them down a bit, and working out is a great way to stay healthy and in shape. But, if I'm understanding your question correctly, you can only get taller by growing taller.

Heyyyy, I'm jess. I love to help other people, no matter what. I've been through enough bs to know when to just stop and walk away. I don't judge; feel free to ask me anything. I have quite the temper. But, what makes me a good advice-giver is that for the most part, I'm genuinely empathetic and willing to help.
(:

I've had a lot of experiences with piercings, bullying, family problems, and even sexual issues (no std's)- but with the emotional part of it. I love music, so I give good, basic advice about that, too. Also, I deal with severe anxiety and depression, and have been in treatment numerous times. On top of that, I have OCD (Obsessive Complulsive Disorder), and because I've been around people addicted to drugs, or cutting, I can help! Just give me the chance.
