Ugh it makes me so mad because it seems like everytime I find a boy that I really like he's either using me or he just wants to feel me up and doesn't care about me at all... What do I do?

because boys think of girls as new exciting fun toys to play with. how about you stop looking around for the stupid ones and find one thats relatively smart and not a douche. oh yeah, thats right, because girls love the asshole guy, and don't start looking for one that'll treat her right until they hit age 22. god damn I'm a bitter scoundrel. you could try waiting until they get over their "plaything" phase.

I am 17, and only around 5'2, with frustrating belly fat. I think I look pretty good, but I need to tone my legs and arms and start working towards a flat stomach.
I haven't been on an official diet, but I do cut down on sweets, grease, and junk food. I like to eat things like blueberries, yogurt, or applesauce, and I don't drink soda. I don't have a big appetite, so I eat small meals which means I eat more snacks.
I usually walk about half a mile with my dogs in the morning or evening. The only exercise equipment we own is a stationary bike and, no, there isn't a convenient gym around here. I can't get outside a lot in the summer when it's hot; the sun makes me absolutely sick. Still, I need to get active somehow...
I'm just looking for tips... Snack ideas, excercise suggestions, or anything else that can help me fit in my jeans better.
the key is proper hydration. drink lots of water, even when you're not thirsty. my favorite comes with barley and hops...
seriously though, that stationary bike would be awesome for your legs, light dumbbells can be found at any sports store, even wal mart. just use the light ones to build tone and endurance.
also, my health guru buddy in 2nd ranger Battalion told me once that eating six times a day, with really light portions, speeds up your metabolism.
just staying hydrated will speed up your metabolism. one easy way to tell is if your piss is clear, you're hydrated properly.

My bunny just had 5 babies, I didnt know she was pregnant! I think they were born 2 days ago. Here are some of my questions:
- Can I clean the cage?
-What should i do with them since i might not want them
-Can I hold them? and will my scent bother the mum?
BUNNIES!!!!! I love bunnies! they're so TASTY!!!!
now that we've established the awesomeness of the long legged rodent, lets get on with the answer.
yeah, you can clean the cage, just be gentle and not rude about it. do it preferably when they're all awake so you don't give them PTSD. the best way to deal with rabbits that you don't want, is to eat them. but since you obviously love bunnies in a different way, try pawning them off once they get to the size of a softball, some pet stores will take them. or a burlap sack in the river, but thats an old school method. wash your hands before you mess with them and wait until they're a few weeks old, that way their eyes are open and they're more alert. delicate is the word, in handling and texture. I hear they make lovely hats too.

So my current boyfriend and I have been going out for a while now and he is so sweet and amazing. He always tells me he loves me, and I tell him I love him as well (because I do) but the other day he came over to my house and gave me a beautiful silver ring with a turquoise stone. He told me that it was a promise ring that we were going to be together forever and get married one day. But sometimes people say that and don't really mean it. How do I know he really really means it. Because I love him so much and I do want to marry him when I grow up. I have dated other guys and he is the only one who makes me feel this way. I just want to know if I am going to end up getting my heart broken. Does he really mean he wants to be with me?
you're fifteen. realize that, and take it into account. sure, he may now, but how long will it be until you guys start clashing over stupid shit. fairy tales are the exception to the rule(I learned this from a chick flick I watched last night), so go ahead with your merry little plans, it may work out, but he just sounds like a great first husband. just think of him as your training wheels into the clusterfuck that is adult life. and what about him? has he been with other girls before? my dad told me once that you shouldn't marry the first girl you have sex with, thank god I took that to heart, because then I'd be marrying a jamacain prostitute. I digress, enjoy your relationship with him, and if it turns out okay in a few more years, then have fun.

Hi,
My best friend enlisted in the army, and she's going to boot camp this summer. I'm not so sure I want to know this, but what can she expect?
Location: fort jackson SC or fort leonard wood MO.
they're both hot as fuck in the summer, like most places the army trains at. the first three or four days are gay as hell, uniform issue, staying awake, learning how to make a bed, etc. thats all inprocessing shit. Then, day five or six is when the drill instructors pick them up. they have about three days or so(whats called week zero) of getting smoked, learning how to march, then they get their TA-50 issue(TA-50 is body armor, poncho, rucksack, etc) then week one starts. from there on, its just stupid shit. rifle ranges on week four, week five is hell week(involves a lot of crawling), ruck march at the end of week five, then weeks six thru nine are machine gun and grenade ranges, followed by a field excercise of about five days, and another ruck march. its gonna be a lot more cuddly than when I went through, because 1: she's a girl 2:fort jackson and leonard wood are training posts for people who will never see real combat and 3: the army has to be "kinder nad gentler" than it used to be because the trainees that are coming out of america now are a bunch of sissies and wouldn't be able to handle the real thing.
if it was four years ago, at a combat arms training post, the it might be hard.
tell her to drink water, and not fuck around with the male trainees. thats a big problem in sissy boot camp.

My dad is big into hunting. He really loves to go hunting deer, elk, moose, anything! Anyway, when he buys a gun, the entire family kind of gives our input about it before he actually makes a decision. He says he's looking at:
a steven model 200 by savage arms
300 win mag
$399.99
I haven't gotten to talk to him much about what sort of gun this is compared to his others but...is it worth the money and all of that? Anyone know how to find out or anything?
EXCELLENT ROUND!
the caliber is great for knocking the hell out of large game at a good range. if its worth a damn, it will be bolt-action. the rifle's cheap as hell as far as price though.... I'd tell him to hold off on buying that thing, check out the reviews in gun mags or online, scope this puppy out. some guns are four hundred bucks for a reason. I haven't heard anything bad from savage, but a good rifle normally costs about twice as much and up from there. there are specific magazines for hunting rifles, check them out. keep in mind, good optics for a rifle usually cost around twice whats paid for the rifle itself. so that thing won't be doing any shooting without a good Burris or Leupold scope to bring it to its full capabilities. there are exceptions to this rule, of course. my M-1A cost 1600 bucks, and it shoots out pennies at a hundred meters with a scope that cost half that. good enough to kill taliban's good enough for me.
find something else in 300win mag, and see what he thinks. oh, and this round has a lot of powder behind it, so find something thats heavy enough to dull the recoil, and look for recoil pads for the buttstock. lightweight bolt actions hurt like hell!

i have hard time trusting people and hard time opening up but i think i like the way i am cause i get to protect myself a lot, but at times i wish i had someone to trust and share my secrets with and it makes me sad and lonely but something tells me not to trust anyone and keep things myself because i feel like if i do share things with other people i end up getting hurt like i always do what should i do about this trust issue? its really hurting me but at the same time im okay with it when people ask me personal questions i just think they just trying to get information or they gonna blab it to someone else so i always lie AND i always think people are lying to me, it hurts when people confide me with their secrets and problems but i cant do the same to others
welcome to my world, young padawan.
stupid references aside, I took a lot of hits in my life. I'm lonely and don't confide in anybody either. you can keep up this course, like I do, tell the world how you feel with the possibility of getting hurt, or just not give a damn. keeping this shit bottled up has hurt my friends, my family, my career, possibly even my unit and my country. I'm trying to get help, but its fucking hard, harder than assaulting an enemy position, harder than staring death in the face, and harder than watching your friends die needlessly for a godforsaken plot of rock and dirt. that urge to keep to yourself and not fuck up the present feng shue is going to consume you. do something about it.

So ok, im A 20 year old sailor, I have a girlfriend whom i am happy with, however we have never met in person (we met online). Before i met her i had another girl that i had feeling for which have since receded. The girl in question now has cancer, and she beleives that her and i are toghther. I love the first girl and care for the second, the second has noone to turn to, i feel as if my involveemeny gives her hope, somthing to live for, as shes terminal. Is this right?
listen squid, you know the right answer. the online chick won't even know. how can she unless you tell her? the right thing, even in secret, is still the right bloody thing. its like doing something minor, that nobody in your unit knows about, that ends up saving their lives in the long run. you have the opportunity to help this girl. its slightly convenient (as awful as that sounds) that its terminal. Don't regret your next decision, because it will haunt you, and things like that won't just fade away. the last thing you'll think about right before you leave this world will be what could have been.

Do more people dislike miley cyrus than like?
I was just wondering because she "seems" popular in america, where I live , the uk, not many people seem to be that keen on her.
So my main question is how popular is she in america, and within in certain age groups do the opinions change on her?
I know this isn't a proper question, but I'm just wondering why she is so popular....
look, the biggest thing driving this is the same thing that drove the britney spears thing when I was in middle school; MARKETING. all of the old teeny bopper girls were in their late twenties, therefore unpopular, the companies like wal-mart needed a new girl for the american preteen girls to identify with and sell their merchandise, and along comes the daughter of billy ray cyrus at the right time to a kid's tv network. perfect! she can sing, dance, act, hell, she can even spur controversy with bikini shots on her freakin myspace. every time she's on the air(factor X) for whatever reason, girls in america get more attracted to her (factor Y). now you multiply X by Y and you get the demand for miley cyrus related gear (backpacks etc.) and we'll call this factor A. now, however many companies are supporting her with music, movie, and merchandise deals have the supply if things that the american twelve year old girl determines to be absolutely essential to her popularity and existence. they, huh, haha, the proverbial "They"... have the supply, and she has the means to ensure demand. its a perfect marriage of an american girl's need to fit in and be loved, and consumer capitalism. its elegant and brilliant. X by Y = A =Profit!
if you check around, I bet you won't find any deals between miley cyrus and a british company.
there's your lesson in american "drug deal" economics.

ok. so about three weeks ago i got my period. it lasted for a week like normal. then a week later i got it again. and i'm still currently on it. i've had it for about two weeks now and there is no sign of it letting up and ending. why is this happening? it's never happened before. i've always been very normal. please help.
(incase this is necessary to know, i'm on birth control and i have been for about 9 months)
you seriously expect to shock the hell out of your system with hormones and not have any side effects. thats what birth control pills are, concentrated doses of artificial hormones that throw your menstural cycle for a loop. you know, its funny, I met this nice girl, she was stunningly beautiful, about age nineteen while I was on R&R from Afghanistan. she started taking those fucking things, and the next time I meet her about ten months later, its like walking on thin ice with the mood swings, growth in everything but her breasts was stunted (and those became disproportionately big), and apparently I'm now a chauvanistic bastard for trying to pay for dinner. Don't worry, the bleeding's normal according to my friends, but you should really think about taking a drug that is used by doctors to keep young girls with large growth plates from getting abnormally tall. there's so many alternatives, and if your boyfriend doesn't want to sport the rubber armor, the hell with him.

Okay...what in the WORLD is going on with North Korea? Are they firing missiles at the US? Are they using nuclear bombs? Are they testing nuclear bombs? I'm SO confused with all the media stuff.
Can someone please just tell me? I'm scared and need to know what is going on for sure!
North Korea currently has the largest land forces in the world. current estimates put them at approximately 900,000, they have the largest artillery force in the world, capable of leveling soeul in twenty minutes. some 6,000 plus russian built tanks. double the number of american M1 series tanks ever produced (keep in mind that many are currently mothballed).
Their strategic and tactical missile force has been expanding exponentially since they got ahold of the russian SCUD short range ballistic missile, many variants of this original have been built by the north koreans, some of the Teiphodong missiles are supposedly capable of reaching hawaii or the aleutian chain.
BUT.... and I assure you its a big one.....
The north korean peoples liberation army has been consuming the country's resources at an unsustainable rate, and is now starving. last I heard, they can no longer conduct training with their mechanized force because they have no more fuel for it. last I heard, their army could fight for about a month before they ran out of fuel. Their huge tank army is critically outdated, most being the T-55 and T-62 tanks, built well before your parents were even born, and no match for the american and south korean tanks, which were designed specifically as defensive weapons to face off against the even larger russian juggernaut that would have come through the Fulda gap. An american tank crew can fight as many as ten times their number and survive. Their artillery is world war II vintage rubbish. that doesn't mean they can't fight though. there's a look at their conventional forces.
here's their nuclear assesment:
both nuclear weapons they detonated were Fizzles(2006 and 2009), which means that they were practically useless as real weapons. though it is a step in the right direction, their tests were pathetic in the scheme of things. basically the force of the twin towers collapsing had more force than either of their runt weapons. last month, they tested their newest flying piece of trash, the teiphodong II, the one that everybody's scared of, and it fell apart after ony about fifty miles. roughly six thousand miles short of any american territory. North Korea is incapable of hurting the United states, they can try hitting our bases on japan and okinowa, but thats with their SCUD missiles, a ridiculously inaccurate weapon system. Don't get me wrong, they're a threat to american interests in east asia, but mostly a paper tiger that the media has a habit of making into the new russian juggernaut. they're a rogue state that has approximately 37% of their population in concentration camps, or as they call them "re-education centers". Kim jong Il has sent out spies to kidnap japanese actresses for his "pleasure brigade". this dude is a complete monster, he's starving his people (ever hear of the "korea diet"?), and there's no clean way to stop him. so we wait for him to die, because the cost of an american assault has been clocked in at over ten thousand american dead with south korea devastated. High tech gadgets mean nothing when you're facing down a bird-chested NKPA soldier with your bare hands, kid. and it would come to that. so just get used to hearing zany stupid saber rattling coming from that hellhole until that midget bastard finally dies.
its a fact of life.
and if it came to war, yours truly would be jumping in with all of his buddies just like the Normandy invasion. Airborne all the way.

Is this wierd:
About a month ago when I was menstruating, I was about to go into the shower one morning, and i just stood in my bathroom naked in front of the mirror, took some blood from "down there" with my finger, and painted myself with it. I made four dots on each of my breasts, a small heart on my upper chest, a circle around my bellybutton, and a line going down the back of my spine (bottom part.) I dont know why I did it, I just did. What is your opinion?
so you like playing with blood, eh? thats usually just wierd and kinky, but overall you're not crazy. next time, harvest your blood clots, run wire through them and make an emo bead necklace. all the guys in the barracks think its pretty wierd, but they're not totally opposed.

I am 19 years old and I came across a wikipedia page for antisocial personality disorder and I fit a lot of the symptoms but I was not diagnosed with conduct disorder. The symptoms I have, that my fiancé has too confirmed are, apparent lack of remorse or empathy, inability to care about hurting others, inability to keep jobs, impusivity and or recklessness, poor behavioral controls, inadequate control of temper and anger (although I have controlled it a lot better than I have ever done), a persistant agitated or depressed feeling, recurring difficulties with the law (not to many since I turned 18 but from about 10 to 15 I had a bunch for fights, problems with authority and substance abuse. I smoke a lot of weed but I have taken others. Inabilty to tolerate boredom, that's a big one as I'm constantly bored. I remember when I was 9 or 10 me and my buddy would sit in front of his house and think of different ways to torture people, that kind of disturbs me. When my great grandfather died I didn't cry at his wake, I was about 10. I cried for a minute or two at his burial when they lowered his casket. When I was even younger I remember walking to the store with my mom and for some reason I started thinking about how I would react if she were to get hit by a car. I remember thinking that I would just take the money and continue onto the store excited that I could get whatever I wanted. Last night it fiancé got mad at me because her mom was yelling at her (her mom has very bad bi polar). Her mom was saying that me and my fiancé were ruining her life and all I did was sit there and look at my nails, she ended up crying and I just sat there. My fiancé got mad at me saying that she is sick of things affecting her and nothing affecting me, and I tried to tell her that I can't be affected if I don't care. Well anyway that is how I am, if anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I'm not worried about acting out although about 5 weeks ago I got a boxers fracture because I punched a telephone pole. I just feel completely devoid of all emotions, I don't even feel emotionally attached to my fiancé. Sorry I keep rambling, any insight from outside sources would be appreciated. Thanks.
to me, the fact that you even give a damn says that you don't have this dsfunction. to me, you're just an emotinally dsconnected person. I remeber when people like that were called aggressive psychopaths, but then political correctness stepped in.... I digress, I've seen sociopaths in the service, they're usually really good at fighting. I think about torturing people all the time, the trick is, do you ever follow through? I've watched some pretty zany things, like taliban getting tore open by machine gun fire, burned alive, blown up, and occasionally had to pick up their scattered body parts. Laughing as they scream and die was always part of the routine, and having a little fun was always the name of the game when I went out to collect the parts. its the guy that can stomach eating spagetti and ribs for dinner on the same day thats crazy. you're not that kind of crazy, similar, but overall you're about where I am, without all the ptsd.

okay well i used to think mastubating was so bad and "god" would punish me for doing it-crazy things like god taking away my personality or something like that. So i stopped. But now my views are different, such as i don't believe in the bible let alone the god people say there is. I mean, i believe theres a higher power- like a force of the universe- but not at all that its going to punish me. And besides, i'm a good person, so why should masturbating make me a bad person? I think they'res nothing wrong with doing it now-but after doing it those feelings of "he's going to take this or that away from me" still come up? I mean, i was raised catholic and i am being forced to go to confirmation-but i don't believe in any of it.Even if there is a god, i wouldn't think of him/her as this menace that gives humans rules to live by. Saying being gay is a sin, girls can't get there periods- it just isn't what i think this so called god would make you do.I think he would be more a best and trusted friend who loves you no matter what.(i very SLIGHTLY believe in him/her.hardly.) So back to my question- If i don't exactly believe in the catholic god,and don't consider myself catholic in any way- why do i still feel like he or she's going to "punish" me for mastubating?! I feel guilty? any help on this? thanks.
welcome, fellow reformed catholic. If god punished masturbators, I'm sure he would've struck my ass down when he had the chance in afghanistan. you're programmed to think its immoral. thats why you're conflicted, and thats why I used to be the world's worst self loathing whoremonger. trust me, if you think its bad with masturbating, try soliciting a prostitute. Thats one of those moments, like in firefights, when you finally see your true self. its not pretty, I'll tell you that right off the bat, and I don't think you can ever change your scumbag rating afterwards. enjoy your alone time, and don't worry, you haven't committed any of the totally damning sins yet.

My girlfriend has a cold sore, right there on the end of her mouth.
She keeps getting pissed at me because I don't want her to kiss even my cheek or forehead, because it's a freaking cold sore.
She's says it needs saliva, and can only be caught on the eye, mouth or genitals. While I know that, I doubt that it only touching my cheek doesn't mean I can't accidently transfer it around by contact with my hands or any other such thing.
Am I in the right to actually not want her to plant her lips on my cheek until the damned thing vanishes?
your girlfriend needs to learn about hygene. thats how diseases get spread, by ignorant people. I don't blame you dude.

Me & my fiance are planning on getting married in October. I really like his parents, but his family & my family are like complete opposites. His parents are super-strict Christians, while mine curse a lot.
We were planning on maybe doing a Halloween themed wedding, but as soon as we told his parents that they freaked out. So, I was trying to I guess bargain with them so I said the wedding will be more fall themed & the reception is going to be Halloween themed.
Like most girls, I've dreamed about my wedding since I was young, & I've never wanted a classic wedding. Me & my fiance are metal-heads, sort of. We love metal music, tattoos, & piercings, so everyone who knows me knows my wedding is not going to be the classic wedding. I was telling his mom about the dress I picked out which is white with red designs on it, & she started saying that wearing anything but white isn't scared or something.
Then we brought up the music, because we will be playing metal music & I won't be walking down the aisle to the classic "here comes the bride".
Again, she said that it's not sacred & we should want "God's blessings". I believe in God, sure, but I just think they take things a little too far. She didn't even like the idea of possibly using black & orange flowers (because black is the symbol of death).
I really like his parents & I've been breaking my neck trying to be respectful when I'm around them (they have a super strict dress code), but this is my wedding & I want it my way, but I just don't know what I can do to not upset them.
Any advice?
let me just start by saying, You are the most awesome chick ever. The wedding's going to be freaking awesome, I wish I could go just to see how completely metal it is. who cares about their wishes? I know, you have to live with them around and I don't, but live the dream, live my dream, live the dream of every metal fan on the face of the planet! let them have their prudish ways, if they don't accept you guys for who you are, then to hell with them. it'd be awesome if you guys played DeathKlok at the reception, hell, show your in-laws some episodes of Metalocalypse, just to mess with them. this is your one shot at the most freaking awesome wedding ever, its YOUR day.
best of luck,
