I am a 17 year old girl. I do not come from a poor family on the contuary i am well off. The thing is that i have a habit of stealing be it from mobile phones which i have now about four,i also steal all of my aunt's clothes and her baby's clothes. The last thing i stole was a video camera from my school.For the previous things i stole they suspected me. Once even the police came to school for i was a suspect for stealing a teacher's cell phone. My parents knows about my problem and the threatens to tell my boyfriend if it continues but really i cannot seem to be able to stop. I sometimes give these stolen stuff to other people and rarely keep them 4 myself.WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Why do you give it to other people? Do you like the thrill of stealing, because I know thats why a lot of people steel. If it's truely something that you can't stop yourself from doing I suggest you talk to a councler about it. Also, I know people who steal because they have bad family or friend situations. I don't know if you have that, but either way I really think you should talk to a councler about it.

I met a guy almost 5 years ago who was everything I could have ever wanted. He was perfect in every way for me...then we lost touch. We were too shy to keep in touch, but for awhile after we left each other...I can't stop thinking about how perfect it was. What do I do now?

The same thing just happened to me, and I was scared to call but I forced myself and when he said I I'm like, it's Lauren remember me? and he was like yea I missed you so much and I ment to call you. Give it a try, what do you have to loose? You haven't talked to him for 5 years.

Hey i have blonde hair about halfway down my back and i've been thinking about getting cut just for a change. Dose anyone have any ideas what hairstyles might look good?ThAnKs!

I would say to not go totally extreme, cut it to your shoulders and put some cute layers in it. Maybe bangs too, they've become really "in".
oh and please make sure you donate all that hair to Locks of Love!!

i know you can practice to hit higher notes, is there any way to pracice my lower notes? i can go high, but i cant seem to hit low notes in singing.

Oooh your a wonderful high soprano like me! Ok so first off, it's totally awesome you can sing high and if you want to sing in chours and musicals and stuff they'll love you. About singing low... I'm not sure your aware of your head and chest voice. Your head voice is what you have to be singing in if you go really high and you can go low in it. Your chest voice or your "belt" is when you use a different form of singing, and it tends to be stronger and louder and you can't go too high or your voice cracks. My suggestion is to ease into singing lower notes in your head voice. Start high and work your way down the scale. Also, I don't know how old you are but girl's vocal ranges tend to get lower (you'll still have the same high range) but you gain notes on the bottom, and it tends to be once in early teens (so it might have already happened) and once when your like 18 (i'm still waiting for that one lol) Feel free to ask me if you need anymore vocal advice.

I'm 14 i have bluish green eyes, long dark hair, and tan skin. although i have been told by guys that i am pretty, they all say they could never date me because of my body. i am 5'8 130 LBs (a size two pants) with a size B cup. i have never met a guy who liked tall girls. i am starting to get selfsonscience. HELP!

I'm guessing your a freshman, and all the guys were short freshman year and some of the ones I didn't see over the summer got sooo tall!! By jr. year you'll be shorter then all the guys. Also, think about this: Models are really really tall, and most guys are attracted to them. If you have really long nice legs, then show them off, etc. Good luck. Also, maybe you can find a tall upper classman :-P

Hi! okay do you think its weird to shave between your eyebrows? because i got dared to so i did now i got to do it like EVERY week! well does anyone else do that? do you think its weird?

I'm guessing your a guy and if you are I would say thats cool because the uni-brow thing isn't all that great looking. If you let it grow back a little and then got it waxed you woulden't have to shave it every week, it'd be more like 2-3 weeks.

Life is NOT normal after an abortion.

It isn't normal, but what I was trying to say is it's more normal then it would be having a child, and closer to the way your life would have been if you weren't pregnet in the first place.

Hi everyone! I wanna be an actress so bad! I'm 13/f. I live in Grafton, WI. I love making my own movies and acting in them and I'd like to be a famous actress. How could I get a start?

I suggest to start off you do some community/school theater. then if you become really really sereious get an acting coach and see what she suggests.

hi everybody! hehe. okay, so how exactly do you get strech marks? and how can you get ride of them (without buying any products)? please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

xokatie

you get them when your body grows faster then your skin so the skin stretches. They fade away after a while naturally. I used to have some on my inner legs and i'm not fat, but i have long legs. They faded in like a year.

Hi Guys..Ok I know this is going to sound ignorant comming from a 22 year old but I really dont know. I am signing up for a gym membership, But I have never been worked out in a gym before. I am tring to tone my belly, sides, and legs, and loose a couple pounds. should I use certain machines how long on each. should I get in a certain rutine. If any of you go to a gym let me know what works for you and what you might think will work me. Thanks a lot guys

A lot of gyms have a free accesment thing where a personal trainor customises a workout plan for you and introduces you to the machines you should use. I was suggested to do 45 min to an hour of cardio and that I could do eather spinning, tredmill, stair master, or elipictical. I swich off so I don't get sick of one. Then spend a little time on weights but I woulden't be able to suggest which ones to do.

hey!
Im in theater class and i have to do a monoluge containing a conflict in it. I really want to awake feelings in people and by uniuqe...one that no one will have. most of the ideas i came up with are already taken such as playing a teenager with a defect and his issues, or about to love someone or forget someone. im really kinda clueless right now, and i need as much as i can get. If you're going to answer this, please make sure u dont give me some relevent ideas, but something that u think if is acted well, could awake strong feeling in the crowd. thank u very much!! have a good day =D

Personaly, I think monologues always end up more successful if your farther away from who you really are so you can be in a total different character. Don't be a typical teenager.
Some suggestions...

1) A woman who lost a loved one in 9/11
2) a pregnat woman who is trying to decide on having an abortion or not.
3) A homeless person, you could talk about the problems of being homeless, people treating you badly, how you got that way, etc.
4) I think any minority, like it would be touching if you were a muslum girl talking about how people though you were a terrorist after 9/11 and how it made you feel.

If you have any more questions, ask. I have a lot of knowledge and experence in this area and i'd love to help!!

Hey everybody!
I asked this question before and I really got some good answers, and some had me thinkin. So i am going to be more specific.

I am a 14yr old boy who likes girls (typical). But just over the summer i knew i was bi. right now in october i still like other
boys and i have a crush on one too! however i still like girls as in
emotionally and socially, but i like boys for all 3 emotional, social, and sexually. i would still go with a girl, but i prefer a boy because it's something diffrent. i think i know i'm gay but i still need to know if i should just be completly gay and forget girls!?!

I disagree what the other people said about you being too young to figure out your sexual orentation. I feel it's better in your teenage years/early 20's then when your 30 or 40 and have lived a lot of your life lieing to yourself.

Now, heres my opinion. You can't just say, should I give up girls? It's deeper then that. You don't have to be forced into being stright or gay. Being bi is totally fine. Even being bi till you've discovered yourself a little bit more. I have a friend who was bi for about a year untill he realised he really wasn't physicaly attracted to girls. I say experament untill you feel comfortable and I think if you are bi you will feel comfortable in either a gay or stright relationship. My last suggestion is just listen to yourself and try to understand youself.

Feel free to ask me any questions.

Love,
Lauren

This is going to be long because I have to give a bit of background information to make you understand this better. I am 14 years old, a freshman in highschool and I have a great friend named Brian, aslo 14 and a freshman in highschool. When Brian was in 4th grade he had to get surgery on his... area (if you get where I'm going with this) The reason for the surgery was that one testical wasn't where it should be so basically they had to put it back in place. He had confided this secret in his best friend, so he thought. About a week later he found out that his "best friend" had told everyone about the surgery and that he had said to everyone that he had a tesical removed. From then on, he was known as uni- ball, one balled brian, rude, childish names like that. He has a somewhat feminine voice so his voice would make you think that he was gay. He isn't gay at all, he's completely straight and has had girlfriends in the past. On top of him being called uni-ball and whatnot, people started calling him, fag, homo, fudge packer... that kind of stuff. He got depressed and started cutting. We are now in 9th grade and he seems to be okay. Everything just mentioned is only what I know from him because he will not for the life of him go into detail about anything because he is too embarassed and will not trust anyone. When we started highschool the rumors started up again. Today in class we were assigned to get into our groups and I sat with him and asked him what was wrong. He was ready to break down and cry at that point. He was so upset that the rumors had started up again. Brian is a very nice guy, he's not gay and he is NOT missing a testical! Everyone is tourmenting him about it and I fear for him that he is going to start getting depressed again. I want to help him out and be there to comfort him but I don't know what to say to him, I obviously can't say I know how you feel because I don't. I just met him this year and he's one of my best friends. I'm very hurt by everything that is being said about him and I want to have the rumors stopped. With me, my friends come first no matter what. I want to help him out so bad, it hurts me to see him so upset. I gave him a hug and told him everything was going to be okay and he just broke down in tears because of everything that was going on. He can't trust anyone. I want to make him beleive that he can trust me and he can tell me anything! I understand that he's not able to trust people but I feel so horrible about everything that is going on. How can I help him? And how the hell can I make these terrible rumors stop because they are hurting one of my wonderful friends. I hate to see my friends in so much pain. Please help. Sorry this was so long.


Also... Please don't give smart ass remarks because this is a touchy subject.

I have no feelings for Brian in anyway like that because I have a boyfriend... that was for anyone who might have said why don't you go out with him.... or something stupid like that.


Thanks again.

I've had two friends who were both made fun of because people thought they were gay.

My suggestion is that you make sure he is never alone at school. You and your friends/his friends should always surround him which will prevent him from hearing a lot of the rumors I think. If he's ever acting sad like that say, who cares what other people say, we know the truth and they aren't your friends anyway.

If you have any more questions, just ask, I'd be more hen happy to help. I know how hard it is, and how helpless it make you feel. You wish you could get everyone to stop and build a wall around the friend who gets made fun of.

Love,
Lauren

Ok well i have absolutley NO Pimples or blemishes or ne thing, but the thing isn't that its black heads... I mean They are on my cheeks, not even on my nose or any of the normal places black heads would be, what do I so how to i get rid of them, i mean they are HUGE black marks, and im white by the way, and it sorta looks like acne, even tho its not at all, my skin it smooth if u touch in nothing on the surface, i mean whats up?

Theres sevral things to do. First off no matter what you do to fix it, you should always use toner. My skin is prone to blackheads and I use toner every day because it gets all the dirt from the day out of your pores (You can See it on the cotten ball, it's pretty cool in an odd way)

Ok so, I went to get my eyebrows waxed and the lady there saw that I had some blackheads and she told me that she could give me some kinda facial that would get rid of it which I think would probally work ok.

Also, I do know that you can do to a dermatoligist and they can do stuff to get rid of them (needles I think but it might be lazers)

Those biore strips work OK but not really. They do take out durt but not enought that the black heads go away.

good luck!!!

has anyone here become pregnant at a young age? please tell me ur story, im 15 and 3 weeks pregnant, n i dont know if i should get an abortion. what did ur parents say and do?

I don't think anyone should tell you what to do with your body. It's YOUR choice if you want to get an abortion or not and it's YOUR life. I'm 16 and putting myself in your shoes I would have a few options.
1. Get the abortion and go on with my normal teenage life
2. Have the baby and eather
a) raise it myself which would be hard or
b) put it up for adoption.

You also have to think about if you would be comfortable going to school when it started getting noticable that your were pregnant, but i think some schools might let you do indapendent study (you go once a week and get all your work)

Make the choice YOU think will work best for you.
I'm here for you if you need any more advice!
Love,
Lauren

I have been an athiest for about four years, and I have begun to feel lacking in that area. I looked up many differnt religions, and took trusted belief tests to see what would best fit with what I really want and believe. The tests all pointed to Pagan. I have looked up on it, and it just seems to fit. I feel so happy, even just going through a normal day is better now that I have found it. However, I do not think my parents (catholic and athiest) will accept it. Anyone who has had a similar "coming out" (be it of religion or sexual orientation) care to help me form a plan, so they might see my view?

Blessed Be

Just tell your parents how you feel at a time you think is right. Remember, they'll love you no matter what! remember that!

Good Luck!

Love,
Lauren

Um Fasting is when you don't eat anything....

What exactly is Libertarianism? I live in an all-Republican house, so its very hard to get unbiased opinions on anything. Also, what are some websites?

Libertarianism catagorises people who are usually Democrats, like John Kerry. They are less old fashoned and for more modern issues, like they are for abortion, stem-cell research, and gay marrage (civil unions). They are also against war although Kerry isn't going to back out of the war, he doesn't call himself a "war president" like Bush has numerously refered to himself as. Also, they care more about middle and lower classes, as Conservatives (republicans) tend to care about the upper class (giving them tax cuts). Conservatives also tend to be more relegious, thats why they are against gay marrage etc.
