About BlondBritBrit



i'm Brittany and though I'm only 14, I'm really good at the psycology of teens. I usually don't use the answer "you should go to a counsler" or anything similiar to that. Although that is a good idea in many situations, I tend to realize that most teens have thought about that and most of them refuse to talk to a counsler about it. If you want a straight up answer without all the "you shouldn't have done that" talk, let me know.

i change my braces every 6 weeks what color should i have only 2 colors or 1?
=]
14/f

I usually pick colors that sort of go with a holiday coming up. Since labor day is coming up (red, white, and blue) , you may want to get red and blue or pink and blue if you want girlish colors. I always get pink no matter what, so right now I have pink and blue in. I don't know anyone that only has one color. I try to avoid colors like black because it makes it look like your braces are in bold font. I try to avoid yellow and white because it looks like plaque (sp?).

My bf keeps telling me what girls hot, and etc. It lowers myself-esteem. How do I look sexxy, so he looks at me, more then them. How can i plan hard to get, for him to want me more. I just want him to want me still.. we've been together for a year and a half.. so dont go saying breakup. Its not that harsh.

((sorry if you've seen this question twice.. the other one got deleted.. sorry))

Ok. Do it right back to him. If you see a hot guy in the mall while your walking with your bf... look behind you as the hot guy passes you. Eventually your boyfriend may get the hint. Do not change for him because he already knows how you look... you've been going out for a year and a half.
But if you want, dress a bit more promiscuaous when you go to places like the mall or movies. Other guys there will look at you and that will make your boyfriend jelous. Then he will respect to more.

what are some things you can do with the kids you are babysiting? i mostly babysit a 6 year old boy, a 3 year old girl, and a little todler. what are some ideas for fun? thanks

Play with bubbles is always good until they get into 3rd grade-ish. Pick out one of their favorite movies and that might keep them entertained. You could ask the 6 year old to help you make lunch for them (some kids like to help out).

ok. i pluck my eyebrows, and it leaves like a mark of some kind, that shows that i pluck my eyebrows. it's like, a lighter shade of my color. how can i get rid of this?

if your eyes aren't very sensitive, try waxing. If they are, maybe don't try that. If you are using a acne medication cream, stop using that a few days before you wax. Use cover up around your eyebrows to coverup the marks.

i live in the south, and we always say ma'am and sir when speaking to adults. however, i recently met some students from northern states and they don't say that. they even said that adults from northern states think it's weird when they say ma'am and sir. but in the south, adults think it's disrespectful to not say ma'am and sir. why is this, and should i just say ma'am and sir to all adults because that's how i was brought up?

For southern people, say ma'am and sir. For northern people you can call them by their first name if you want. Or a more respectful way is to call them Mr.(last name) and Mrs.(last name).

sorry i left out this part i was copy pastin n it got all messed up heres the continuation of the otehr one and tahnx for reading it i reli appreciate it.


I understood because we are still young but how could he tell me he loves me if he doesn't wanna be with me. Well anyways on thursday i found out that on wednesday night he slept at his friends house and he did a camera thing with one ofmy friends theyw ere all joking but he told her to pull her shirt down more so her boobs would show. It's so hard to even write this because he's so not like this. On thursday night i found out earlier that day his ex adn her friends came over to swim with his friends. Just to amek it short on friday i saw him for 2 minutes and i was planning on talking to him about it but he could opnlys tay for like 5 minutes. He was being an ass and he just left and said i love you bye. He's on vacation right now and i don't know what to do when he comes back. Thanx for reading this .What should i do? I'm 13 almost 14 and a girl.lol

He is a major player. My advice: leave him before he leaves you. This is the stuff you only KNOW he doing behind your back. What do you think he's doing that you don't know about. Most likly a lot more. He is unfaithful and not a relationship kind of guy. I know what you mean by "he's so not like this". What may have happened is now that he has a girlfriend, all the girls want him. (that always happens to people... once they get a girlfriend/boyfriend, everyone has a crush and flirts with them). So since all the girls want him, he feels like "the man" and feels like he can get anyone he wants. Because of that he thinks of himself higher than everyone- even you, so he treats you like shit.
Here's the plan. You leave him. A good way to break it to him is (on the phone) :You know, I've been thinking a lot while you were gone... and heard that you've done some pretty bad stuff behind my back. (make sure you don't tell him what you heard or who you heard from). I think it would be best if we were just friends." After you leave him eventually he will be the same un-flirtatious guy he used to be. None of the girls will like him like they do now. He will realize that you were the only one that truly loved him. Then he will come running back to you for forgiveness. Happy ending.

Hey brittany this is kinfd of long but hopefully you can help.I'm usually the one giving my friends advice but i need someone right now
I hav been going out for this guy let's call him Josh for almost 10 months. We hav an amazing relationship and he really is my best friend. We have one problem his ex girlfriend is insane. She is obssesed with him and there is a long story behind that but just to make it short she is jealous and she wants him and her and I got into a big thing. I don't liek to start things and i do stand up for myself but i don't liek having enemies. About 2 weeks ago. My boyfriend started treating me like crap. This is 2 weeks ago: Saturday night we got into a fight because his ex's friends were starting stuff with my friends. I told him that i didn't know if i cood take i anymore. We weren't on the best page. Since it is summer we don't see eachother that much he went to camp before these 2 weeks and now he's on vacation. SO back to Saturday so that happened then on Sunday we talked and he was mad and upset. On monday we were planning to see eachother on tuesday but my friends messed it up. Also on monday we had a long talk about his ex and hwo i feel like he doesn't stand up for me like he should. When our plans got ruined for tuesday i was upset but it seemed like he didn't even care. On tuesday he called me at night and we didn't talk much but i asked him what he did today and he said nothing and that he's been thinkin about alot. I got a little worried. Well anyways Wedneday came n i went to my friends house with him and all my friends.I decided to just forget about everything because he was leaving that friday and i thought it would be the last time i would see him so i wanted it to be good. It somehow came up and he wanted to talk and said that i don't feel like he is really intersting and all that and he simply told me that he was just thinking that the relationship is getting too serious as in commitment wise

Im sorta confused on what the question is. Wether it is "is he gunna break up with me?" or "is he falling for his ex?"... so I'll just answer both.
When he gets back from vacation, I beleive he will forget the whole thing. Like, not forgrt it, but just not care about it anymore. Just make sure to don't sufficate him when he gets back. Talk to him on the phone once on the day he gets back. Then talk to him again the next day... only once. Maybe make plans to hang out on that call. If you all do hang out, play it cool and don't bring up his ex or any other drama that involves him.
He may be talking to his ex behind your back or something. After they broke up, she may have played the whoe "Can we still be friends?" trick. She might be flirting with him and stuff. Possibly even talking trash about you so he will think highly of his ex. It might be working. When you talk to your boyfriend, dont say anything (much) bad about his ex. He doesnt want drama. If his ex disses you while your boyfrind is standing right next to you, look over into his eyes without replying to the dis. This should give him the hint that he needs to stand up for you against the ex. Then the ex and him would be mad at eachother because he dissed her back.

If you need anymore help, don't hesitate to ask. =]

i've been going out w/ this guy for a couple months and we've kissed acouple times and stuff but weve never makein out and i dont now how to get him to makeout w/ me can someone plz help me

If neither of you have made out before, it may be sort of awkward because you won't really know what to do. And you won't have anyone to follow their lead. Just while you two are kissing, slip your toungue in his mouth. If he doesn't do the same at that point, then he doesn't want to makeout.

there's this "game" people play. i dunno what its called though which is what i wanna know. its where there are two people. one person puts their hand on the person's knee and moves it the other persons leg until that person says stop. and then they switch roles and sees who endured more. and the person who endured more ist he winner

its weird. do you have any weird games you play with your friends

yeah, it's supposed to be a sexual game. I think it's called 'The Nervous Game' because you say 'stop' if they get close to somewhere on your body and you don't feel comfterble (sp?). I've played it once, I'm pretty good at it too =]. They are basically allowed to do anything with your body until you say stop, but they need to start easy then get you more nervous as the time progresses. It can be a really fun game if people are watching yall. It can be really funny.

people keep saying that i cut what i dont anymore and i just wanna forget about that past and they wont let me how can i show people that i dont cut.I do get scraches on me because i have 13 pets.But i dont want to happened what happened befor.So HOW CAN I SHOW PEOPLE THAT I DONT CUT.im not sure if this is the write category

I know what your talking about. I hang out with a "goody goody" kind of group that NEVER does that kind of stuff. Once people saw that I did it, the news spread like wildfire. Now I'm done with it and poeple will say "Your a cutter!" and I'll say "No, you know I'm done with that." and they just say "riiiiiiiggghhhhttt...". It gets soooo annoying that people don't beleive me. The only thing I can think of to help is just say in your head "They know I'm done with it, they just want to tease me by saying that I still do... but they KNOW I stopped cutting." Because it is true. They do know you stopped. They just want to tease someone. Try to not let them see it bug you. I know it's REALLY hard, but just try.

Me and my boyfriend have been deeply in love for a year. All we've ever made it to is 2nd base. Yesterday I was talking to him and he asked if I was a virgin,I said I was and he did too. He then proceded to tell me that even if our relationship didn't work out in the long run he'd like to lose it to me. I had been thinking this for months. We both want to make love, not just have sex. The problem is we are NEVER alone. He still lives with his parents and the don't trust us to be alone. Neither does my mom... And if they left us alone he still has a little brother that follows him around every where. I need sugesstions, *sigh* I don't want a 2 minute quickie in the bathroom...

Wait until both of your parents are at work or out of the house for a long time. Then invite over your boyfriend. Your boyfriend will tell his parents that he went to his friends house.

O.K. i don't want to sound desperate b/c i'm NOT!! i'm "concerned" about my `invisible` love life. i'm 13yrs.old, a female, and going to highschool.
i haven't gotten my 1st kiss, nvr had a b.f., and will prolly be single for the rest of my life.this is kind of weird but, i want to know why boys aren't interested in me? i mean you might not know why but,idk, i NEED som adventure in my life, and i guess i don't need a b.f. but, a 1st kiss wouldn't hurt ,right???
well i dk know if this was a question but, can anyone PLEASE help me!!!!!=(

*ANY 1 who answers this please DON'T say you're pretty on the inside or "one day it'll happen" or any other thing like that!!! i want the REAL DEAL
(don't be to harsh please, just HELPP ME )

thanxxxxxxx a lottta hearts ♥

I'm in the same position as you -no first kiss and no bf-. I heard a few days ago that if the guy you like is popular, play hard to get. But if the guy you like is sorta dorky, be there and avaliable for him. Dorky guys seem to give up on love easier, unlike 'popular' guys.

ok im 15 [16 next month], 5'7 & 120ish pounds. ive had my period for like 4 yrs, and i still only wear a 32A. i heard youre usually about the same size as your mom but my mom wears like a B or C?

You will most likly grow by the time your 18 to a B or maybe even C. It is possible that you will stay an A though. It is very hard to tell really. I am only 14 and I am a C (almost a D) and my mom is a B. So it is sorta hard to predict.

My boyfriend is 16 and I am 13, I know that is kind of a big age difference but he's alot more mature. I'm really afraid to go to the movies with him and stuff because I don't want him to try to make a move. I'll make out with him and stuff, but he might try to reach down my pants, and I'm soo NOT ready for that. How do I tell him that without sounding like a prude? He's had sex before so I told him that I'm not gunna have sex with him. This was his answer: "i dont care I dont want sex either I just want a beautiful aka you." So does it seem like he's after sex? And I'm really scared to talk to him on the phone so when he asked me to call him I said my phone is lost which it reallly isn't. I feel guilty, but my parents don't want me talking to boys. Haha, if I do go to the movies with him, should I bring a friend?

I dont know.... have you seen "John Tucker Must Die"? He might be one of those guys. As in he says that he wants you for you and everything but that is really just his skill to make you trust him so he can get in your pants. If you go to the movies with him for the first time, he will most likly try to finger you... but you have a better chance of him not trying for it if you bring a friend. Also, try wearing jeans if you go to the movies with him. Def dont wear a skirt- it's pretty much an "Enter Here" sign. If you dont want to wear jeans because maybe its hott out, then wear shorts. Good Luck... dont let him get in your pants!! =]

hi guys i have this big problem. first off, i am almost 15 & my parents are in their 50s they are very old fashioned. they only let me hang out w/ girls im only allowed to talk to boys in school or on the phone in the daytime. they always see hanging out with boys as a "date" & never let me hang out w/ my friends that are boys just because they are boys. i think this is unfair ive tried everything possible to convince them otherwise please help me pleassse

when your telling your parents about convos and stuff tht you and a certain guy had, say stuff tht shows u don't like him. For example, something like "He tripped today, haha, he's such a dork". It worked with my parents. If he's younger than you (as in a grade younger), you can say something like "Yep, he's another 7th grade dork." Then tell your parents on how 7th graders are immature and stuff. Don't actually flat out say "I think it is unfair that I can't hang out with guys" and so on. You need to use psycology on them. Let me know if you need any more tips.

My best friend is an every sunday, church and really religious parents, and i took her to a party and she met a guy. She has only told me her secret, but she has already missed two periods! She might be pregnant and she really needs to tell her parents, but she is so afraid of how they react. If she is pregnant, she wants to keep the baby, she doesn't beleive in abortion or adoption, but she is afraid her parents will make sure she gets rid or the baby.

PLEASE HELP MY FRIEND AND I!!!

Go to a thrift store or whatever and buy a pregnancy test. Don't tell the parents until you are sure she is pregnant. If she is somewhat young... like 14 or 15ish, then her period timing may just be off. I have had mine for 3 years and mine is still always off timing. If she is pregnant, tell the parents for sure. You will need to because they will see her tummy grow eventually, and when the baby comes they will sorta know that she had sex.

ok last night i woke up at about 3:30 because i heard a creaky noise and i flung up and went OMGSH!! i went to say you scared me to who i thought was my moms girlfriend and my dog but the person just turned around and looked at me like i was insane i stared at them as the faded into my door without opening it am i insane.. do i have some special power? this happened when i was like three.. i was in the bathroom potty training [ bear with me here ] && the door was open and all of the sudden a clown came out of the wall [ im not afraid of them ] and i screamed he looked at me and walked out the door and my uncle came running and looked at him or so i thought.. but i dont think he saw him .. whats wrong with me? am i just seeing this stuff and its not there do i have some power i dont know about im only 13 so it could get stronger

I wouldn't say you have a power exactly. Everyone has the ability to see ghosts. I've seen one in the Queen Mary (it's a ship that is docked and treated as a hotel, but there are over 100 stories of ghost sightings in that ship). My parents were out at the bar and I was sitting in the dark room with nothing as light except for the TV. The hotel room included a seperate bedroom. I was sitting in the main room and I saw a red dres- with no one in it, but still forming around the shape of a woman- at the doorway of the dark bedroom... then it just walked into the bedroom and disappeared. I remember it so well, I could draw the dress exactly how I remember it. My dad also had a few incedents with ghosts when he was younger. Clamed to say they were attached to a weegee board from the 1800's that his mom brought over from England. My advice, never mess with those things. He also beleives that they were attached to the house, but weird enough, they were the first one's to own the house. They also may be connected to your house, check it's background and previous owners.

alright. here's the sitch.
i have this boyfriend, who i've been dating for
2 days. and i love him very much.

now that probabbly sounds rediculous,
but me and him dated once before, for about
7 months. he treated me like gold. i loved it.

but after a while he seemed to lose interest.
he broke up with me. and he said upfront that he
started to like another girl. i was very hurt, but
i appreciated his honesty.

after like a week of us being broken up. he called
me at 2am. crying. saying he made a big mistake,
and he cared about me yada yada. and i believed
him, and took him back.

then literally 2 days later, he told me he thought
he was making the right decision by asking me back.
but he just realised he doesnt feel the same.

and i felt stupid for taking him back.



now, weve been good friends for about 4
months now.and the other day i went to his
house andhe told me he liked me again, he
claims he never stopped. he ended things
with this girl for me. which must mean something.


he asked me back out when i went to his house.
and we didnt do anything sexual, he just held me
tight and said how much he missed holding me.
and he would kiss my forhead and such.

now,weve been pretty good these past days.
i just feel kindof paranoid ya know.
like when hes gone and i dont know where he is
i'll be all nervous and such. i hate this feeling.
i dont think he would do anything, but its still
a weight on my shoulders. i'd like to learn some
advice on how to not be so paranoid, and learn
to trust him. so our relationship will be stronger.





anyone know any REAL advice on how to do that?




thank you so much.
xxxoxoxo

Personally, I think that you shouldn't take him back, but that wasn't the question... so onto the question. With time you will star to trust him more. Let him go to parties or whatever without you. It will be hard for you while he is gone, but it will help soon enough (as long as he stays true to you when he's out). For example, my parents have strict rules on going to the mall. Whenever I go, I make sure I don't do anything to get me in trouble. I do this because everytime I go to the mall my parents let me stay there later than before because they know that they can trust me.
Also, take out a peice of paper and write down all the reasons why he wouldn't leave you for someone else.
