Q: okayy so I am absolutely in love with this boy. He is my best guy friend's best friend. We've hooked up once before. After that night we talked for a little bit and then we just stopped but me my best friend her boyfriend(who is my best guy friend) and him all still hang out and me and him still talk. Im falling soo deep in love with him but he doesn't know. I am so afraid to tell him that i like him because i just know he doesn't feel the same way about me. Im scared of rejection. Any way I can get around this or over it? I have to see him every weekend and I dont wanna feel awkward. Please help! thanks!

You need to realize that this is lust not love.
Some called it One sided love.
I feel like you should find another boy to focus your attetion on. The reason i say s=this is because you shouldnt be wasting your time on a guy that doesnt even like you and there is probably a guy out there that does.

Q: i hav a crush on a SENIOR {im a freshman}. we talk and i need advice on how to not just walk by with a wave! i need to start conversation but i need advice as to howw!!!!! how do i start something intersting???

You can say Hi, how was your day? Listen attetively. Any question starts a convo. It can even just be what are you doin? If a school function is coming up ask him, are you going to the game? O! Who is going with you? anything works. Have you seen this movie? always start with a question!

Q: Hi. I don't really wear tank tops or anything because my armpit hair is kinda thick. When I shave it, it doesn't really look shaved. Am I shaving it wrong? How often should I shave? Etc. I don't want to know any kinds of products, just routines of shaving/after-shaving or any other tips.

You shve until you see no hair. Thats as simple as i can put it.
Your hair is gonna grow back thicker so anytime you feel uncomfortable with the way it feels or looks, shave it. You are supposed to shave againsst the grain so if your hair grows in a downward direction, shave up.

Get the picture?

Dont forget, when shaving wash your razor our so hair wont get caught up in it while your shaving.

Q: this is going to sound gross
but durning your period, what are some smells to watch out for?
like if it smells like somthing its dangerous and you have tss? and what do i do if i get these smells?
thank you so so much!!!
you all rock!!!

p.s is it tss if it smells like creamchese?!?

Umm ii dont think so. If it was TSS you would be in pain. Having fevers, etc.
Are you sexually active? This could be an STD.
Or if you arent sexually active, douche. You can douche during your period.
If this doesnt help trying going to the doctor.
It could also be a yeast infection, so the doctor is the best bet.

Q: what is the clitoris and wat is it for?? and do u know where the hymen is located can u see it??

the clitoris is the little ball like thing that hangs above the opening. Its used for stimulation during sex but your pee comes from this. The hymen is in the vagina and no you cant see it.

Q: if you open up your vagina and you can see sort of ball shaped thing like tissue on the top of the inside of your vagina and the whole is underneath of it is that normal and what is it??

Um yes that would be your clitoris, aka the pearl.

Q: a few months ago i was 5"4 and 110 pounds
now i am maybe a little over 5"5 and 104 pounds
13/F btw
is this normal?
same eating habits,
no excersize
is this bad to get taller and lose weight? not that im complaining or anything i mean i dont mind but lyk i just want to know if this is normal
alsowhen i sit down my theighs kind of go 2gether and this summer im going 2 swim camp what excersizes can i do to make my theighs not do this?
thanx so so so much!!

You are a healthy size. People will actually tell you that you are too small. As you get taller you are supposed to gain not lose. But it could have ben many factors in this, you coud have been stressed or more active or anything. So really you dont have anything to worry about.

Q: I am thin and today when I came home from work I changed into a tee-shirt but wore the same pants I wore to work. She asked me as I sat down to eat if I lost weight, and I said no, but this upset me. I said to her that she always tells me I look beautiful. She said you do look beautiful but your pants look bigger. And she told me that I am skinny enough. However, I feel as if she is telling me to gain weight and I look ugly -- is this in my mind and am I overreacting. HELP

Yes you are overreacting. I gave this asnwser because if you think about it you have been wearing them pants all day, so of course they dont fit like they did when you put them on their worn in a little. I think you should think about this, as long as you know your the same size you were you should stay confident.

Q: im female 15
im 5'5
i want to be 5'8
my dad is 5'7 my mom is like short 5'1 maybe
will i grow to maybe be taller
or how do you know when youre not going to grow anymore ?

You stop growing when your 21. If your 5'5 and your 15, im positive that you will grow another inch or so.

Q: I am 13/f and my best friend just talked to my bf and he said that he was going to kiss me this weekend. This will be my first kiss and I have never really been more nervous for anything. LOL!I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on first time kissing. Any would help. ( I really don't want to hear that it comes naturally, or just relax and it will be fine, I really want good tips) Thanks so much x0x0x0x0x0
Love,
Im almost to the point of having a break down. lol
:/

Just let him kiss you. Im pretty sure he knows this is your first kiss.
If its open mouth dont tongue wrestle with him and dont trade a lot of salivia either. a moist sweet kiss. And always make sure your lips arent chapped.

Q: ok so i want to get my belly button peirced & my mom is still thinking about it. but i want to know if its going to hurt a lot and what i should do to keep it not infected & anything else important!!

thanks in advance=]

It wont hurt alot. But to keep it unifected you have to wash with mild antibacterial soap, and you have to turn it and push it up and down. Dont forget to use the stuff that they give you. Use as directed. They are going to basically tell you how to take care of it. NEVER PUT ALCOHOL on it. AND if you run out of the belly button ring stuff that they give you, DONT use the ear stuff that they give you when you get your ears pierced.

Q: Like if sperm is like dryed out can it still make you pregnent? If like someone -eats you out with sperm on their lips can u pregnent if there tongue wasnt inside you and what time of the month do you get preganent?

You get pregnant during ovulation. It really depends on what time your period ends. Ovulation starts 5 to 7 days after your period. If the sperm is dead no you cant get pregnant. But it takes sperm seven days to die.

Q: My body is used to not eating until around 4:30 -5:00...i have no idea why, but i just am not hungry (i've been like this for probably 3 years). I told my mom i do not eat b-fast or lunch, and she became really concerned. I've been working out lately to get my body in shape for the sole reasoning that there is a track camp in the summer that i need to get in shape for it because there is a ton of running.

I'm comfortable as i am (15/f..5' 7.5"...123 lbs) and do not especially want to lose any weight.

i get the feeling that my mom may think i have some sort of eating disorder which makes me really uncomfortable. (she makes wierd comments) I do eat, but not until late afternoon where i have a snack and then dinner and dessert. I have been running for an hour a day for about around 2 weeks.

What should i do to make my mom see i do not have some sort of eating disorder? thank you

Let her see you eat something!! Even if its just a piece of fruit! Its not healthy for you not to eat that is why she is concerned. Ask her what do you have to do to convince her that you dont have an eat disorder and do what eva she says.

Q: during lunch i came a little late and i heard this popular girl yell across the room to some guy to "do it now". i wasnt paying attention realy, but i forgot about it later. then the guy she talked to came over.. hes popular too i guess, and i dont hate him or like him.. but anyways he asked me out and im like "no thankyou" and like half the cafeteria looked at me. i wasnt really embarrased because i dont have a crush on him at all but i guess some other people thought so, so they did the prank? idk well later i dont really care and i'll still treat him the same, but im kinda mad that they'd do that. like that girl.. alot of people hate her, and shes only liked by her friends, and some other guys i guess. but shes really mean.. i mean besides clothes why do people wanna be like them and stuff? there are good popular people and there are some really mean ones.. its so stupid. like what even makes someone popular? them having more money and flaunting it more? some people do that but they arent popular either. and i guess friends too? like i admit that around really popular people, unless they are my friends, i wouldnt act the same like if it were a normal one. i cant explain it.. its not like i'd bow down to them.. but.... i dont know. anwyays and theres this other popular girl whos friends with the girl that i think told the guy to play the "ask me out" prank from before, im friends with, and shes mean to like everyone except her friends. iguess im friends with her.. i can be myself, no worries, and shes okay. but i dont like the way she treats other people.. like she called this kid stupid and mean and retarded and etc all the time.. i mean hasnt she looked in the mirror lately? shes the one that keeps talkin to this kid.. i feel real bad for him but everyone thinks hes weird.. because he is.. but i wouldnt make fun of him infront of his face. i dunno, like alot of people can do that.. maybe i could but sometimes or alot of times i just think its morally wrong to do that.. should i stay friends with this girl? shes also kinda mean to some of my other friends and they say shes a bitch and stuff. like some guys in my class i sit with say shes a bitch but still talk to her (haha, or flirting?) i cant agree or disagree with because shes still nice to me... i hope im not sucking up.. i dont think so, because if i think something i'd say it and not just agree because they are popular. ugh bad way to think though. idk if im popular or not.. and i'd like to not care. i'd just like friends to hang around with and have fun.. and not by hated by everyone. and so far thats okay but sometimes i do feel selfconcious and then i start twitching a little (i can even twitch my ears! well it feels that way.. its weird) or something. sometimes i even talk before i think, which brings forth strange convos. and alot of times because im kinda quiet at times i guess people cant hear me. its so annoying, sometimes im just like "nevermind." because i dont wanna explain again. i know they dont say it to be mean, but like am ireally that quiet?? sometimes im not.. i guess it also depends on my mood. it sucks. how can i also be louder? ugh this question is all over the place so it helps when you read the whole thing. THANKS!!

- you will win 1,000 in your future if your advice improves my life by some reasonable amount -

They probably did think that you liked this guy and was trying to embarrass you, but obviously your better than them. Im not going to say stop being friends with her but dont get to close to this girl. As long as you arent the one talking about people you should be fine. And This guy that is talking to her and about her, he is just being rwo-faced, He is telling both of yall what yall want to hear. AND FINALLY your last question, Try talking when you are alone. And make sure you listen while you are talking. I did this in school, or you can look in the mirror and talk to yourself. I know it sounds weird but hey thats what the teacher told us to do!!

Q: my dad is one who always plays jokes and pranks on people. No one ever seems to get him back very often...and i really need to get him back with a really really good prank. The thing is, the prank has to fit these:
*no or little mess
*nothing is ruined
*it has to be something he knows was done by me.
*nothing like stealing money or anything that would make him mad

Thanks for your suggestions, i will rate!

Its this store called spencers, I dont know if you have one or not but they sell things like itching powder, and farting powder that you poor into their glass, gum that really hot stuff like that.
Thats all i can give you that isnt messy, ruins anything, and it should make him mad!

Q: ok, im 14/f.
my parnets are racist and always have been. my sis and i are the only ones out of 6 people in our family that dates out of our race. my ? is how can i get my mom into getting to know my black bf???? holla at ya snowbunny lata/./.
abby aka Az

Honestly no matter what you do they arent going to change their ways. They think what they are going to think and they are going to say they are older than you and they know whats right.
Have you ever asked your mom what is her reason for hating black people?
She probably was raised this way...
What i am saying is Dont throw your boyfriend into the mix because it will just complicte your relationship with your family.

Q: well ok i want to know just because im curious how do u dress ghetto? like what do i wear to look ghetto? im j/w

Some people consider dressing ghetto is looking tore up. Like ragdety(sp) clothing. Looking like you just dont care.

Q: hi ummmm i wanted to ask you a question about sex and i need advice as soon as possiable. okay so me and my boyfriend had sex for the first time march the 5th of this year. and we did it twice that night. okay well a day later we did it three times. well its still hurting me. and bad too. is that normal? what could be wrong?

Yes this is normal. Its going to take a couple of days for the muscules and tissues around your vagina to heal because you had sex so many times. You need to slow downs. Take a nice long warm bath. BATH NOT SHOWER. so the water can hit it and relax the muscules.

Q: ok so theres this guy in my class who likes me. well call him *jack* ok so i have a BIG feeling that jack likes me. i HATE him, he annoys me and i know it sounds mean but hes kinda a dork. like im more popular then him not like im the mot popular but i hang out with girls like a level below popular girls and im cool with all the popular peeps. so anyways, this guy likes me and i always have the WORST luck in class. i got assigned as a partner for a project in history which SUCKS because he like annoys me and he pulled out my chair for me a few times in class and i always see him looking at me and if we leave a classroom after using a comp. he likes waits for me, and it annoys the crap outta me, and my math teacher put me at the same table as me in math. i hate it because i just want him to not like me. is there any way i can let him know im not interested without talking to him? the project is over on like monday or something but i just hate him so much and id never go out with him. so how do i let him no???

first PLEASE correct your english because half of that dont even make sense.
AND yea just tell the boy he annoys you.

Q: Hi, I am my cats favorite, he is with me when I sleep, do my homework, watch tv, he waits for me when im in the shower, scratches my room door if i keep it closed. HE LOVES ME! thast not the weird part, lately he has been bringing things to my bedroom. He will bring a slipper to my room, drop it infront of me and leave, or if my door is closed he meows outside my room with the item in his mouth and as soon as i open the door he drops it and keeps walking, yesterday while I was sleeping he brought a RUG into my room from the basement! Do you know why he is doing this or is it his own unique hobby????

It might just be a hobbie. He could be trying to tell you something also, but here is the thing, we arent vets. We cant really tell you what is wrong with your cat.
