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

there are two boys.
the first one, ill call "BOB", his mom is my moms best friend. hes a few months younger then me, and hes so nice to me. he says i should be a model and all of this hes so nice. and i really like hanging out and talking with him. he hangs out in my group and im going to have to deal with seeing him for the ret of my life. our familys go on vacation together and everything. also, our names are next to eachother in the alphabet! our initials i mean. we have the whole "i love you" thing back and forth and he says he wouldent want to go out with anyone but i cannot go out with him because my mom will not let, she says hes to close of family. now i cant even seem to form a normal sentence when hes around. i think about him a lot during class.
Then, theres another boy. I saw him a one day and had a friend introdue us because they were friends. i couldent get him off my mind. then i saw him again and invited him to a party with me and we were dancing all night and he tried to kiss m good-bye but i woodent let him i just gave him a kiss on the cheek. hes a year younger but hes in my grade because he skipped and 2 weeks ago he was all i thought about. he never said anything sweet to me like that i was pretty or anything but he was so innocent and sweet and shy and i loved him and we texted for so long and whenever i closed my eyes all i saw was his eyes.
and so, me being the flirt i was we had a bet on sumthing stupid and i said if i won he had 2 ask me out and this was before BOB and his GF broke up and this was also when BOB and me didnt talk at all and so now, ROB and BOB both keep texting me and im stuck in the middle because ROB goes to a different school and he is teling people at his school that were kind of going out and i used to feel like this magic with ROB that i dont get around BOB but i cant be mean ad stop the I LOvE YOU stuff with BOB becayse i really do like him and hes so nice. but i dont get that "omg this is the most amazing person in the world" feeling like i did around ROB. now me and ROB havent talked in so long but im afraid if me an him do run into eachother ill get all into him again you know? i know this is so long but i have a delema lol thank you so so so much!!

Honestly, I'd be with Rob. I mean, he tried to kiss you the third time you guys met, and then he's telling people at his school that he's dating you. He wants to flaunt you & show you off to the world, as his girlfriend! Also, you don't get the same feelings around Bob as you do with Rob. So, Rob is obviously the better choice.

As for Bob, explain to him that your mom wouldn't want you guys to go out because you're so close to the family & whatever, but you'd like to remain friends. And in the end, if things don't work out with Rob. Go for Bob & see how it goes with him. =) But for right now, keep him as a good friend. He sounds like the kind of guy that could be your best friend.

theres this girl i know and i try to be her friend and stuff but she says like she doesnt need friends and she has had no friends at all. we're both in seventh grade.. and i cant believe it. i mean i even thought i was kinda her friend.. but i guess not. she acts reeeeally weird but she also likes anime and drawing pictures. like she draws all the time even during school and has like probably hundreds of pics done. they're good and i like drawing anime too but sometimes it would make sense to be socializing but shes just sitting there by herself coloring or something. and then when you talk to her she talks... really weird like all hyper and stuff and like once i was fooling around and i combed her hair a little with a comb i found and she scribbled a pen on me and im like "you dont do that.." and she did the same to someone else.. i mean we're just trying to be friendly but its like she doesnt value our friendship because.. well i dont know why. she doesnt think friends are important.. arent they? i cant imagine living without them.. its gay and drives alot of other people away from her. i dont mind if shes a little eccentric (COUGH ALOT.) but like she should try to be my friend or does she even value being my friend? ugh.. and some girl i know hated her because everyone else did in 5th grade.. or they didnt talk to her because she was so weird. and she brought it up to her and we're like "wtf" because thats like 2 years ago! people have been immature and changed. but like... she wants people to talk to her but... she doesnt want friends? ADVICE PLEASE!!!

If I was her, I really wouldn't wanna be friends with anyone either. And I'm surprised I actually wanna talk to people & have friends. I've been teased all my life, so I hate most people. When you're teased a lot, you don't really trust or like anyone because you think everyone's the same, and that they're all gonna make fun of you, so you just try & stay away from them & be by yourself.

I think that's what she's doing. I don't think she wants any friends until she can trust people, and learn to like them. She probably wants them, but she's too shy or she doesn't know how to handle them. She might value your friendship, but I think this is something you should talk to her about. Let her know that you're not like everyone else & that you're not gonna be mean to her. If she knows that you're there for her & that she can trust you, she might just open up to you.

15/F
I have had nausea(sp?) for so long . I cant do anything. I cant go to school, walk a round, or concentrate on anything. Is there anything over the counter that will make me vomit, just so cannot have this feeling any more? I am also dizzy so the combo. is a horrible one.
I have seen many differnt types of doctors and even had a CT scan, on my head. Nothing has been found AT ALL, and no medcations have worked.
If any one can give any kind of answer it will be greatly apperciated.
Thank you!

Well, since no one on this site is a doctor, I doubt any of us will be able to help you well enough. But, whenever you feel like puking, lay down. You probably don't have the stomach bug, but it still helps to drink a ton of gingerale/water & sprite. If you drink things with color, it won't go so well with your stomach, so you're supposed to drink things like that. Also, eat crackers. Your stomach isn't quite ready for real foods yet, so I would try crackers.

As for medicines that you can buy over the counter, I'd suggest "epicac." I'm not sure if I spelled it right, but you can try that. It helps you to vomit. I don't use it, but I know people who do use it. Try that, and I'd go to the hospital so they can run some more tests on you because something obviously isn't right, and it's interfering with your daily life.

i don't get it. when i get into a relationship and i want to be serious about it i let all my guy friends go, and my guy friends are fine with that cuz they understand me and how i don't beleive in cheating and shit.
but my problem with my boyfriend now is that he kind of makes a big deal out of it, i just finely got him to fix his damn myspace top friends thing, cause it was me and like 50 million other girls.
i trust my boyfriend, but shit like that makes me 2nd guess, he hasn't done anything to prove me wrong, if i'm not at his house we are on the phone will we go to sleep pretty much.
i just don't know what i need to do. cause i think it pisses him off when i bring shit like that up. but yet he is glad i tell him so he can know.
and it really hurts his feelings when i tell him i have a hard time trusting him sometimes.
but i've been cheated on way to much these days.

Think of it this way:

Your boyfriend loves you. If he wanted anyone else, he'd have broken up with you by now for them. Doesn't the fact that he's still around say anything to you? Cause it should.

I've been cheated on too, so I know exactly how bad that can affect your trust, but jealousy in the relationship can be a big issue.

I'd know, because I just broke up with my boyfriend for his. Jealousy makes me feel like I can't breathe, or can't be trusted. I've done things to break people's trust, but never his, and the fact that he didn't trust me made me kinda upset. I had a picture on my MySpace of me and a guy friend [just friends; he has no interest me, and I have none in him], and I told my boyfriend that, but he didn't care. He made me change my default anyways. Jealousy can be good & bad. Good because it shows you care, but bad because too much can make a person feel crowded, annoyed and untrusted. I felt the negative way, and so I ended my relationship. He completely regrets it now, but I'm not giving him a second chance because I know his behavior won't change. Most of my friends are guys, so if a picture can set him off, then I might not be able to hang out with people.

But anyways, your boyfriend is with you & if he wanted somebody else, he would've left already. You've got nothing to worry about. He loves you, and if he didn't, he'd be gone.

I HATE picking out shoes because I can't wear anything with heels, not even small ones so people call me old lady because I wear flats. There's no shoes store around my area that has my size because all the good ones are either small or too..girly with the high heels and I can't walk in them.

I don't know how to pick shoes that matches with a dress or outfit.

I wear flats. There's nothing wrong with them. Their cute, sensible & they go with practically everything. Try some flipflops. =)

Hi

15 year old male from UK

(This happened when i was about 13.

im quite good at fighting, ive never really got into a serious fight before. but i can take down most of my friends (just play fighting). But this day, like ages ago when i first started high school, this guy wanted to go at it. I didnt react cause people knew he was a weirdo and he was probably carrying a knife with him or somethin, i just took a beatdown. I was shocked when it happened, noone came to aid me or anything so i was sort of stuff with loads of people watching a beatdown. after it i was really still in shock, i just broke down and started to cry. This 'prefect' as we call them (Someone who is in the top year in highschool who shows new people the ropes) took me to see a bully counciler, i couldnt speak cause i was too much in shock, and just crying alot. I am quite a sensitive guy and when something like that happens it just makes my heart just drop and i can't hold back from crying. If anyone knows a way of tackling my sensitivity that would be cool.

Thanks

There's nothing wrong with crying, even though that's the way societ has made it for men. Crying is seen as unmanly or whatever, but honestly, everyone cries, whether they'd like to admit it or not.

There is nothing wrong with sensitivity. Although this kid might've been crazy, I wouldn't have taken an asskicking. I would've stood up for myself, and even if he did win, at least you didn't just sit there.

I have some really pretty necklaces but the chains kind of rust I guess and they start smelling REALLY bad. How do I prevent this? Or take away the odor from one that already has it. Thanks!!

Get jewelery cleaner.

i think that i'm pretty skinny, the problem is two things: my boobs and my hips. i think my hips are like a little bit too narrow to match the rest of my body, and i want to make them a little more narrow. my boobs are just big but what happends is that they grow wide, like they look bigger than they really are just because i need to like squish them more together..... the thing is i thought it was like a weight issue but i tried loosing weight and i have, but sometimes i feel really weak. i don't think i'm in need of loosing anymore weight. i've been feeling really weak and i was just wondering is there anything i can do about these two things, and avoid loosing too much weight or going on a diet. because sometimes i feel like i get really bloated too, water weight.... any ideas??

I don't think you can make your hips more narrow. As for your boobs, you can't make them any smaller. Haha.

last year i went out with a guy and he forgot we were going out haha yeah my friends made fun of me for it but i get so fustrated because i still want to be friends with him but he never talks around me, hes always shy or quiet around me and in class ill catch him looking at me does this mean he still likes me?

It might be. Start talking to him again. =)

ive been fingered before many times [only by one guy]
and he ALWAYS wanted to finger me ofcourse i liked it but how does he get any pleasure out of that?
Basically what im asking is, why do guys like fingering girls so much and how can that get them horny?
Just by the feeling?

Hahah. I guess it's because they're touching your vag.

welll i was just wondering if like, the day before you wear a skirt, you could make your legs look better. i don't mean lose 5 pounds or gain a lot of muscle or anything like that, but just make them look better, like a little more toned. i have pretty muscular thighs, so are there any stretches you can do to elongenate(sp?) them so they look a little less bulky? or anything like that to tone up your calves.

thankss

Do lunges.

After reading this you'll be thinking 'Lame teenage problem' but this is a big deal to me. As of last week I was known as the nice girl you can trust and will never bitch about you behind your back. But now that's down the drain. I'm now known as a bitch who says heaps of crap behind people's backs. What happened was that one of my 'friends' and I drifted away (No fights, nothing) and I haven't been to school in about a week due to being sick so now was the best time to tell everyone I have been bitching behind their backs to her (Even though I haven't) so now everyone is angry with me and I'm not even there to defend myself. I have no idea what bought this on. I was still friends with her, just not as close and if anyone should be angry it's me because she's been ditching me for her new friends (Her new friends have nothing to do with this don't worry)

Just confront her about it.

am i overweight? i'm 5'1 and i weigh 130. i'm athletic and i'm active, it's not like i just sit around -i love to run. i know those websites to look for for the appropriate weight for your height, but what if i'm not built tiny like other people that are 5'1? am i overweight or am i fine?

I think you're okay. Muscle weighs more than fat, so you're not fat, trust me.

So, my bf and i have been dating for a year and a half..and it seems he used to be so attentive to me and calling/texting all the time and it got kind of smothering so i didn't always pick up and he picked up on that and now, 6 months later he's doing the same to me, i don't think i call him all that much but i noticed that he doesn't call as much..but when we're together he acts totally the same, and very atttentive. whenever he doesn't pikc upr text back right away, whcih is somewhat frequently (or whenever he is with his friends) I get worried, and i don't wanna always be so worried that maybe he's cheating or ggonna break up with me..any advice to not feel this way, or idk, i've tried controting him but he just brushes it under the rug.

Don't worry about it. I think if he wanted to be with someone else, he would've left you already.

alright so my laptop is really messed up. it wont let me use alot of programs on my laptop and its a dell inspiron 1100 laptop. somethings wrong with my hard disc drive too.. i dont know what to do cause my space on the drive is NOTHING. i have NO space at all. 0 bytes. and my laptop hold 18.5 gb.. i tried deleting files off my laptop that i dont need but even if i dont download anything, the free space goes away and goes back to 0 bytes. ex. i would have like 10 mb and then 2 minutes later i would have 0 bytes even though i did nothing.. whats wrong with this?

I'm not sure, but I think you might have a virus. You need to call DELL since they're the company who made your laptop. If your problem can't be fixed, they should send you a new one.
