I'm burningXstar (feel free to shorten that to any name you like!) i'm a student living in the UK, and as well as having a very mixed up life, I do enjoy trying to help others with their problems and woes in return for everyone elses much appreciated advice =)I try to help people as best as I can, most of my advice is through personal experience, and experiences I have learnt through people around me. I consider myself to be a good listener, and tend to pick up on lots of little details, so hopefully this will also help me to answer any questions! I also study biology so if relevant I will use scientific data to back up any questions. However there are always going to be some things I honestly know nothing about! I will not give half hearted answers to these questions! Therefore I will only answer questions I can put all my knowledge and effort into.
My realm of topics still varies, hence why I haven't listed any "main catagories". But if you have any questions feel free to ask me for any advice and I promise I will reply! =)

Is it true that you can get HPV Human Papalumoa (or however u spell it) Virus from masturbating???
I've never actually heard of that before! But take a look at this website:
http://www.talksexwithsue.com/forum/messages/7983.html
I would imagine there's only a chance if you have warts or something on your hands, I don't think it would be a common occurance!
ok I've been waiting for awhile now for my voice to fully mature. About what age does that happen or is it something that's 'different for everyone'? Are there some excircises (sp?) that i could do to help my voice? thanks in advance!!
It's different for everyone, with some boys it can happen almost overnight, but others it can be a longer process - my brother's voice has almost fully matured now, but occasionally in a sentance one of his words will come out slightly higher, but this will gradually disappear. I don't think you will need to do any "excersises" unless you are a singer, in which case you may need to talk to a music teacher about different scales and ways to train your deeper voice!
Hope this helps x x
Anyone know any songs that are about wanting to give up on a friendship/not being able to take any more fights with a friend? Something like that? Thanks!
The first song that popped into my head is Yellowcard - empty apartment - good song =)
Ummm, I'll try find some others for you...
3 Doors down - dangerous game
all american rejects - change your mind (could be about friendship & arguements, depends how you interpret it)
Anberlin - Never Take Friendship Personal
Cartel - Matter Of Time
Cartel - Write This Down
Also quite a few linkin Park songs I'm sure would work!
Hope this helps x x
hello [= my last question
got deleted. i guess i didnt
give enough infoo lol. are there
any ways i could make my orgasim
last longer? im a female. usually
my orgasims last like ten seconds?
please and thank you :]
Right, basically you have to bring yourself right to the tip of orgasm (using whatever means you use!) and then slow down, play with something else for abit (if you're with a sig other get them to tease you somewhere else, thighs, breasts, etc / or if alone just slow down and take some deep breaths try to relax) the aim is to not get there too fast, if you do this a few times, get right to the tip and then slow down, when you actually reach orgasm it should be more powerful, and last longer.
Hope this helps =)
Im 14 years old and turning 15 soon. I'm going to high school next year.
I'm fully grown with big boobs and I got my period in 5th grade which made me want to question whether or not I was growing anymore because I heard that if you have had your period for more than 2 yrs, you basically stopped growing.
I went to the doctor and I found out that I'm not growing anymore. I'm not even 5 feet! I'm 4'11. "I was one inch away from being a legal midget? My "friends" make fun of me saying that.
There isnt a day that goes by that I dont hear that I'm short. I know it shouldnt bother and it doesnt all the time, but hearing it all the time can make me feel bad, you know? I tell them all the time to stop and that you know it hurts but maybe that wasnt a good idea since now they know that makes me feel bad?
I should start wearing heels right? One problem! No shoe store has my size because the regular size is 6 and that's too big for me :( So.. I dont know what to do. Isnt getting customized shoes is expensive? Do any places have size 5 for women?
What should I do? It's probably not that big of a deal but I just found out so I'm still sensitive about the subject and I already tried letting my friends and family know that it bothers me but nothing has changed! Please help! =)
P.s. I'm sorry for it being long but i would really appreciate anyone's help!
Hey, it's not true that you're not going to grow anymore, you don't stop growing until you are in your late teens, even early twenies in some cases, it takes this long for your bones to stop growing. Just because you got your period quite early and started developing early means you hit puberty earlier then others, but chances are your body still hasn't quite finished developing, so there is still a chance you may get taller, you just need to make sure your diet is good and not restricting your growth in anyway... :)
However, you might not get that much taller then you already are, so you need to learn to accept your height and see the positive side! I was always quite tall when I was your age and used to envy smaller girls as they always seemed to get more attention and be prettier! However all the shorter girls used to say the opposite! We all want what we haven't got :( and all girls have some insecurities about their bodies! As for your shoes, I'm sure you can find some places that cater for smaller shoe sizes, but you may need to look in places other then popular high-street places - a good option maybe to have a look on ebay? or around the internet, which seem to cater for more people :)
As for people calling you short, if you've told them you don't like it and they continue, you know these people arn't being real friends =( but I promise you there are loads of people out there that will look beyond your size and accept you for who you really are, so ignore all the shallow people out there who make themselves feel better by calling you names! Just stay positive and true to yourself and you can rise above their comments.
Wishing you the best of luck! :)
sorry if this is long but i really need advice ok i live with my dad, and i need to get bras, i need/want a cupped bra, but
1. i don't know wat size i am and i dont know how to figure it out.
2. and i dont know which 1 would be right for me
i would like to have 1 regular sports bra, 1 regular cupped bra, and 1 sports bra that is sorta cupped. how many bras do you think i should need? how do i get those bras with my dad?
as much advice as possible plz help me!! but i can only go to walmart and target. i also won't ask someone who works there!
thx
If these are going to be your "first bras" don't worry too much about the "size", the best thing to do is try some bras on because the sizes are never the same.... I hate bra shopping for this reason... I'm not familiar with American supermarkets either but if you don't want assistance then you need to make sure (go into a changing room with a good mirror) that the back strap runs along horizontal and doesn't ride up your back - if it does it is too big and you will need a smaller back size. Also, you should try and use the last clips of a bra, as this will ensure the bra lasts longer, as it stretches over time you can move up to the second and third clasps... (I used to always just go for the first clasps! - they didn't last long!) also you should try wearing a tshirt over the bra make sure it isn't all frumpy and bumpy on the underside or it will look abit strange (I never understood non-smooth bras!) as for your sports bra make sure you get the right sort of support, if it is your first bra you should be fine getting your bog standard normal bra, but bigger chested woman need to make sure they buy proper bras for ample support or you can damage the breast tissue, make sure you do the "bounce test" and feel secure and tight (but not too tight).
Google up some bra help pages if you want to measure yourself up before you go, if anything the most important measurement will be your back size, which is the measurement under your bust. But you will still need to try bras on as some of them are just made wonky, I swear they are out to get us!
Hope this helps! Try no to panic, all women need bras, I'm sure your dad will understand :)
ok i just turned 13, and i have not gotten my period yet. i have some pads and today i was curious so i tried one on. well it didn't fit right it seemed a little too big. but i got the smallest size. well i tried putting on using the directions (i'm using always). well i'm still using hanes girls and i put it on it feels uncomfortable. but then again, its my first time wearing a pad. so please tell me if its supposed to feel that weird, and also tell me anything i need to know about my period kuz i live with my dad, AND I CANT TELL ANYONE ELSE!
thank you
Yeah they feel like nappies at first :( But you get used to it, when you get your period you might find you will need to change the type of pad you buy to suit your flow needs, when you first start it might be a good idea to buy those multi-absorption packs... so you get some of each absoption levels as they can change from heavy to light and you never quite know what to expect for the first two years =|! But when you get used to them you can always try using tampons which may suit your needs better (if you are quite sporty, hate the feel of pads, etc) However tampons can take alot longer to get used to... but once you do its worth it :)
Anyway you're only 13, its a good idea to be prepared but you may be lucky enough to not get your first period for another two years or so! So don't worry about it too much until your time comes :)
Look at pad brand name and tampon brand name websites for help and advice, there's usually some good advice on there too!
Help this helped :)
Well I want to practice more cheerleading routines and stuff. Does anyone know any good websites to get stuff off of. And please dont tell me to google it. Thank you :).
Youtube has LOTS of videos of cheerleading teams, maybe you can get some ideas watching other's routines :)

If I were you I would delete your myspace account!
That thing ruins peoples lives!
Well. Me and my boyfriend of (9 months.) have a serious jealousy problem. No big. It's just that he doesn't go to my school, and he doesn't want me talking to guys, and it's okay cause I don't want him talking to girls. He wants me to prove it to him that I don't talk to guys. He wont believe any of my girl friends, cause he doesn't like any of them. Oh well. I don't hang out with them anyways. But, anyways. He wont believe if people tell him I don't. I just need a way to prove it to him. I'm sorry this doesn't make any sense. I know it doesn't, but I need advice. I need for him to trust/believe me! Help please. :]
Jealousy isn't good. The main thing in a relationship should be trust, your bf should trust you to be able to talk to guys and not lead them astray or do anything that would reprimand your relationship. But you too should also trust your bf to be able to do the same with girls. How can you possible be in a secure, steady and realistic relationship when you are so confined to another person's rules and regulations of who you can talk to... I suggest you have a nice long talk with your bf and sort out what you do and don't trust in each other... Its okay to be jealous sometimes, but jealousy shouldn't restrain you from talking to other guys... If you are unable to trust each other in daily life, you may never be able to trust and depend on each other when it matters most.
i dont think this is in the right topic but anyway...
how bad does it hurt to get your belly button pierced...like compare it to something..thankss
I've never had my belly button pierced... But I saw two girls getting it done while I had my ears done lol. From what I heard and saw it didn't hurt at all because they had the skin "clamped" in a scary looking metal thing which pulled the skin taunt... (which wouldn't hurt so much as put a bit of pressure on the skin) then the guy sprayed the area with this stuff that makes the skin go numb (like when you have dental work done), then the needle is pushed through the skin. There were no screams! And one girl said it was less painful then having her ear done, and they were incredibly screamish before having it done.
Hope this helped somewhat! :)
my left foot has gone numb. it's almost as if i can't end it backwards/flex my foot. i ran today ut i had no problems then. any ideas on why it may have gone numb?
If the numbness doesn't subside over the next couple of days go see a doctor, you might have damaged a nerve or something ? If it's just temporary numbness might be one of those things... sitting funny on your foot cutting off the blood supply, cold feet, bad circulation... You could try having a warm bath seeing if that helps get rid of the numbness.
i have been with my boyfriend for almost 10 months. we are really close and love each othere very much. recently we have started talking about having sex, and i want to, and i feel that i'm ready. my problem is that how i can explain this to my parents. they waited until they got married and i don't want them to judge me because i don't want to wait. how can i bring this situation up if i have questions? how can explain to them how i feel?
Wow, you have a brave and honest outlook on this, I would never be able to talk about sex with my parents, I think we would both be too embarassed! It's cool that you want to be able to discuss the issue with your parents. I think ultimately, its your desicion as to whether or not you think you are ready, obviously its important to make sure you use the right protection as I'm sure you're not ready to have any children yet! But it's clear you've spent time thinking about sex so I'm sure you've already thought about appriopriate protection - just don't let the heat of the moment make you forget. As for your parents though, if its really important to you that they should know, then you should be honest with them and explain that you have thought about it and will be careful, explain it has not been a rushed decision, and you and your bf have both spent time thinking about it.. Just because your parents waited until after they were married doesn't mean you have to "live up" so to speak to this expectation. It is your choice to make, you shouldn't let any fears about your parents expectations of you put you off, sex is a personal decision, as long as you are over the legal age you have your own responsibility to choose wheather or not you are ready.
"never take someone for granted hold every person close to your heart cause you might wake up one day and realize that you've lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones"-- what does this quotes trying to say? is it about friendship? or what?
I think it's meant to be about friendship... Telling you to never neglect the friends you already have and try aimlessly to make "lots of friends" and leaving the real friends who you could depend on the most behind, as you will one day find in your attempt to attain "many friends" you will be far more lonely and unfulfilled despite having "many not-so-special" friends.
okay so me and one of my really good guy friends just started going out. everything's going great.. except our phone conversations. we never really have anything to talk about. can someone give me things that we can talk about (not like: how's the weather. more personal.) thanks.
Yeah awkward phone conversations... gotta' love 'em ;)
First ask about his day, and anything else you might want to know, what you'll be doing for your next date... then be random :) Ask about his favourite foods, clothes, places to visit, anything you can think of... once you start talking about one thing you'll find as you get to know each other better the conversation will flow better. In time those 'awkward' silences may not even feel that way to you anymore :)
Don't give up!
How do I stop myself from getting upset over little things that shouldn't even matter?
I often feel the same way... Hopefully this might be of some help!:
Try listening to a cheerful song, or humming to yourself (or in your head if you're not alone)... I know it sounds weird but this one happy song I know always manages to put me back into a good frame of mind :)
Thats a short term option anyway, the only way you can put small things into perception is think of how worse the situation could be, and make yourself realise how small and silly it really is, which might help you to slowly train yourself to see past the small problems and get on with things :)
there is this girl at school that i really like. i want to ask her out but i don't know her that much.
what advice could you give me?
thanks
From a female point of view... Get to know her better first! I know when I was abit younger although flattered, I was abit scared when random guys I didn't know walked up to me and randomly asked me out before they even... shared had a normal friendly conversation with me! lol.
Just find a topic you share in common and talk to her about it, be friendly, she'll get the hint, once you've crossed that barrier, move in for the kill! =)
Hope this helps

my skin is pale with a tint of red and i cant stand it. i use cover girl clean makeup creamy natural cover up and it always makes my face look like its pealing can anyone help??
Use a moisteriser on your skin first as a base, leave it to sink in (10 mins or so) then use a *bit* of cover up or concealer stick, rub this gently from where you dab it by making smudging motions to work it over your face, then use a compact/powder to finish off.
That's what I do, but make sure you clean your face using cleanser & toner at the end of the day, and moisteriser aswell to finish, as well as before you apply your makeup in the morning =)
Hope this helped!

I used to be in this cooking class and they gave me a sheet on how to make pancakes. I lost that sheet and now I'm craving pancakes at 11:30 p.m...strange, huh? well, i was wondering if anyone knew the recipe..?? I know ya'll will say "google it" but i did and every recipe had baking powder..we don't have that right now..so does any one know a recipe that excludes baking powder? also, can anyone tell me how to cook it also?..THANK YOU!
hah I crave pancakes really late at night too, recipe I use is this:
1 med/large egg
4 ounces plain flour
1/2 pint of milk
lil bit 'o' butter
Mix the egg with the flour, then add the milk... mix... until all the mups you can get out or out...
Then heat the pan put the butter in to make it buttery... then pour the batter on... should be able to make 3 :)
Give it a go! xx
Ok at first glance this may seem like one of those "I wanna lose weight, but im way to lazy to do it, any ideas?" questions, well its not. I do want to lose weight, i run and im trying out for volleyball and i also skateboard. What im wondering is if anyone has any idea of websites besides teentone.com that you can get printouts from to keep track of what you eat and whatnot.
Thanx in advance, remember i rate.
Try keeping a diary of what you eat everyday and at what time. It helps if you eat 3 meals a day instead of snacking... Keep track of your progress by checking you're eating you daily intake of fruit veg potien and the rest! Take vitimins if you feel you're lacking any... but DON'T calorie count... it's frustrating and limits what you can eat! and don't feel like you have to limit your eating, just eat healthly instead of high fat/carb/sugar foods! Sugar is stored as fat... which makes it a bigger nono! Organic and fresh foods are best, anything processed or full of sugar is generally bad... Try eating more fruit and veg if you don't already and keep up the exersize
Hope this helps :)
