advice
i love photography and im lost without my camera. for the past few months it dies within ten min even if i charge it all night. but i dont really know if it is the battery or the camera itself. how can i find out? i dont have the money to do anything expensive for it so its kind of depressing. maybe buy a new battery but what if its not even the battery..? any help
I had this problem with my old cell phone, and it turns out it was the battery. BUT it could also be your camera cord so I'd get both checked out. I doubt it's the camera itself because the only way that would be messed up is if you've dropped it or done some serious damage to the area where you plug in the charge cord. Bring it to the store where you purchased it, or any store that sells cameras. They'll be able to tell you what's wrong with it. Just bring the cord with you. Good luck
So I started college in the fall and long story short, I've grown to hate my roommate! I can't stand her! I realize I cannot change her behavior, only my own, but things are starting to get out of hand.
We have 3 garbage cans and 1 recycling bin. I use one garbage can, the rest our hers and she still can't manage to take out the trash in a timely manner.
We have a leaky faucet which creates mold in our sink. Guess who cleans it... [me, the one with the allergies]
She never everrrrr leaves the room except for class and 1 or 2 meals a day. she isn't involved at all meaning if I want some space to myself, I can't be in my room.
Her mom drives over an hour to do her laundry and everything else for her... we're both 19.
I won't go into more detail...basically, we're complete and total opposites and we can't get along, she won't move out or agree to have someone else move in with her so i can move.
please advicenators... I'M BEGGING for help here. my room is prison but I have to sleep in there!! I don't know what to dooo!
Ya, I also had roommate issues my first semester, and got myself moved to a new dorm and I LOVE it now and my roommates are like my new best friends. If I were you, if you want to, you could always talk to your RA about getting moved to a different room. I'm not sure what the rules are about getting yourself moved, but if she's unwilling to ALLOW you to move, talk to your RA. Or you could just talk to your RA about what's going on like Matt said. Personally I'd talk to your roommate about it before consulting an RA because you should at least try to work it out without involving someone else.
Good luck xD!
Heres whats up----
First before i write anything tell me not to do it i wont listen so dont bother.
Me and my two friends are planning on sneakign out of the hous up the street to a guy friends house and sleeping over..How do we get away with it?thats all im askin
Well first off, I kind of agree with 'solidadvice4teens' why come here asking for this type of advice when you know many of us will tell you just to not do it?
Secondly, you know your own house better than any of us do. I'm sure you can find your way out better than any of us can tell you how. Out the front door? Out the backdoor? Climb out a window and onto a tree? It's not exactly rocket science.
I'm 14 and barely 5 feet. I started my period pretty early - the summer before I became a 6th grader, and I'm paranoid that I won't grow anymore... My dad is 5'7" and my mom was 4'11". I reckon I remember my very first doctor said my potential height is 5'2" and I was wondering if I really can see that dream come true. For the past few weeks, I've been sleeping alot (not because I was desperate to grow, I was just soo tired lately) and I've also been doing yoga stretches before I go to bed and I actually grew almost an inch in a month. But my growing has stopped. Should I switch my yoga rutine to the morning to get the best possible results? And do I still have a chance to reach 5'2"?
I actually heard that working out can make you grow? I guess when you stimulate your body, muscles, etc it causes growth. I'm 5'2 and it's pretty average. Also, you're only 14 which means you're not done growing yet, at least until your 18 so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I was about 5 feet when I was your age, and I've grown since then and I'm now 18. Don't be too stressed out over this, you're still young.
Im a virgin. and I have a boyfriend and we're rady to have sex now.But whenever we try to do it, I either become dry once he tries to penetrate me so his penis cannot go in.And even when I'm wet, I become very tense and can't keep my legs wide open so he still can't penetrate me. what should I do?I'm very desperate!! we tried several times and still we can't make love:( please help!
Use a lubricant. Also, if you're tensed, just relax. Picture everything that is going on around you and just let your legs and body fall back on the bed and become relaxed. There's no need to be afraid, which is partially why you get so tensed. Just let your body lay there and let whatever is going to happen, happen. Trust me. Just open your legs wide enough so he can get in there and then just relax yourself enough to let it happen. And definitely use lube, it makes it way easier for it to go inside you.
Is it really true that sperm dies when it hits air?
Could you only answer if you are 100% sure?
It doesn't die when it hits air, but it dies shortly after. In a matter of seconds I believe.
My mom has 3-8 weeks left to live.
I'm so depressed.
what do I do?
17/f
First off, I am SO sorry. I know that's probably the last thing you want to hear, but each and everyday I'm scared of that happening to my mom and can't even begin to think about what you're going through.
If I were you, I'd spend as much of my time with her as I could. Go to the movies, or rent movies and watch them at home. Make jewelry together or paint, draw, anything. You could cook and ask her to teach you a few things. Just let her know that you love her more than anything. Try to think of things that you love doing with her, for the next 3-8 weeks it's the only thing you really can do. Try to push it out of your mind (impossible, I know) but just take this time out to be with your mom instead of being sad. As for dealing with the sadness, look to the rest of your family. You can always look to your friends.
One of my friends lost her father and started doing drugs and drinking and completely lost control. Just remember, your mom would never want that for you. She'd want you to be strong and grow up to be someone great. Do everything with your mom in mind, remember that she's the reason you're alive and even if she's not there to remind you, she loves you and she'll always be there with you. People never really die until the memory of them dies; it's okay to cry and be sad, don't let anyone tell you different. Cherish each day
Is it legal for a 15 year old to date or have sex with an 18 year old in the state of Florida?
You can date him, but it's not legal to have sex with him until you are age 16. 16 is the age of consent, meaning you can give yourself consent to have sex with him. If he pressures you into anything and you have sex with him, that is considered rape and he can go to jail. Even when you're 16 and claim he pressures you into having sex you can consider it rape because you're still not legal, you're a minor.
ok so i just got my braces put on yesterday, and may i say i am in PAIN!!! they didnt hurt the first day i got them but now my teeth are so sore and my lips are all cut. the wax has helped my lips from getting cut my teeth still hurt real bad. how long is it going to take for the pain to go away???
Ughhh .. braces are awfullll. BUT the pain should go away within the next few weeks, try taking advil or tylenol. Eat some ice cream too, even if it doesn't help your teeth maybe it'll make you feel better :)
Eventually when you go back to the orthodontist, he's going to tighten the braces again and they're going to hurt. Eventually you get used to it and the pain only lasts 2-4 days. I know it sucks but it's something you just gotta get through for it to get better. The end results are sooo worth it
i have to get a drug test in exactly 7 days for a job. i have never done drugs or smoked pot before but im around it all the time and yesterday people were blowing the smoke in my face and stuff so i felt a little high. but i was just wondering if that would stay in your system?
When you do weed, you inhale it. So you somewhat did the same thing by inhaling other people's smoke, therefore you may fail the drug test. If they take a hair sample you will DEFINITELY fail. You never know though, you could always let them know friends of yours were smoking and they blew it in your face, but they may not believe it if you come out positive for marijuana.
This is kinda random-but I've come to realize i really don't have a best friend?- I used to have one,from when i was 3 up until about 3 years ago (she's older, going to college,working-ect)and we've just grown apart. So lately i've been looking around a noticing- everyone has a best friend. I sort of feel like i've missed my chance at getting that title, because i'm 16 and usually your best friend's the one you've known since you were little,you know? I really have no one, i mean i have awesome close close friends-but none that i'd really consider that one best friend-anymore. Am I alone in this? Am I..missing something? I guess it's got me feeling kind of down XD.
You're definitely not alone on this one. I've loved & lost many close friends over the years so I know how it feels. I took away two best friends from high school~ no regrets. Thing is, I made four MORE best friends in college. When you go off to college so many people are eager to make friends that you just click with someone and instantly become friends. Some people go to college without having a best friend from high school as well, no need to be worried. I'm POSITIVE that if you've decided to go to college after high school, you WILL make plenty of new friends, and eventually you'll probably get closer to one of them out of the whole pack and you could probably consider that person your best friend.
My two roommates are literally best friends, or at least consider each other their best friend. One of them used to live next door till our previous roommate moved out, but anyway. They just met four months ago here at school and are now unbelievably close, we all are. You just have to be open to new things and open yourself up to people, you never know what will happen.
19/female. this might be longer, so i will return the favor to anyone generous enough to help!:)
Basically i've been head over heels for my good friend joe for about 3 years now. i'm still a virgin, the farthest i've gone is making out. joe is 18, and he's only been with one girl and he's basically done everything possible with her, sexual wise. they were together for 2 years, understandable. i'm not sure if joe knows i'm a virgin or not, i've said i was but then sometimes it seems like he thinks im not by the things he says. so i bought these black fuzzy handcuffs at the sex store, and basically it was to just put in my room because my room is black and pink. i've never used them before or anything. well this past weekend joe texted me asking if he could borrow them and i was like haha are you serious? and he was like ha hell yea! so i agreed to borrow them to him and then he asked if ive ever used them before and i lied, dumb me. i dont know why i did, but i said yes and he asked what i did and i said well i handcuffed up a guy and then gave him a lapdance and then he handcuffed me and we had fun. i think he liked hearing that, but it wasnt true. well then we started talking last night, welll texting and we started talkiing about sexual things and he told me like his favorite position, what he likes a girl to do in bed, how he loves to do the 69, how he has had sex in the shower and so on. well this made me feel dumn because i really really like the kid, we're both attracted to each other and honestly hes the ONLY guy i can see myself ever losing my virginity to. i mean i'm 19, almost every guy i meet is going to be more experienced than me but if me and joe ever did start getting sexual, basically i would have no idea what i was doing and he would probably be thinking ... i thought she was all kinky and stuff?? i know i should tell the truth but that will just make me sound stupid dont you think, i'm not sure if i could pull off pretending to know what i'm doing in the bedroom? any ideas, advice???!
If you ever were to hook up, which is the only way he'll know if you're experienced or not, things just come naturally. My first time I was kind of scared that I wouldn't know what to do but the truth is things just happen; once you start you'll just kind of realize how to go about different things and typically the guy can lead the way most of the time. If you're worried about BJs they're really not complicated, you'll just kind of know what to do. You can always ask him what he wants and how he wants it. If you guys end up hooking up, just let him know you're a virgin again and if you do other things, let him know you're kind of new to it all. He may have forgotten that you told him you gave someone a lap dance, etc. Guys don't remember a lot of things anyway. If he does remember just say it was a one time thing, or you can always tell him the truth that you did it because you like him etc etc.
Ok I am just going to be blunt with this whole thing. I am constipated and I haven't been able to poop for almost a week now. I usually poop at once every two days or so. I am really unhappy and it's making me feel AWFUL! I have sat on the toilet for a long time trying but am unable to just do it.
Please, help me! What food helps you poop? And what makes you constipated anyway so I can try to avoid that again?
Fibers really help you regulate your system. I'd try eating Fiber One bars with a glass of milk, or Nature Valley bars. They all contain a lot of fiber and are actually pretty healthy for you too. Apples also contain fiber. Constipation can be caused by a lot of things, diet included. You may not be eating the right amount of food, or other problems I'm not really sure of. Also you could try taking a tums, Rolaids, or Gas X and see if they help you go.
For the first time my bf asked me to finger myself to (entertain him and I've neva fingered myself so had no idea what I was doing) i used 2 fingers and it didn't hurt but got a strange feeling(sensation)
Then afterwards there was a lot of blood on my fingers and also later on it hurt to sit and walk and at first I thought it I had cut myself cause my fingers were long but when he got me 2 do it again later it happnd again.and it was close to my period is it possible it culd of triggered my period? Or jst cut myself cause I jst did anything had no idea wat to do. and I have already had sex before and neva bleed.culd it be infection?
Sometimes girls who have sex don't always get their cherries popped, so that could have caused the blood. I'm sure you didn't injure yourself because you would have felt pain, especially when you go the bathroom. I wouldn't worry too much about it, sometimes even if your cherry pops during sex, it doesn't fully pop.
Okay well me and my boyfriend have been through alot, we've gone out like 10 times . No joke , and each time we broke up we'd miss each other like crazy so we'd get back together . We text , and the thing is i like talking to him on the phone but he just doesnt take the hint . He texts so BORING ! It gets me so frusterated ! He just isnt outgoing through text . When we're together hes sweet and nice , but through text he just bores me to death ! I don't know what to do to get him to just be more upfront and outgoingg ! Please help !
The key to a relationship is communication, so tell him. Tell him you feel that he expresses his emotions better in person, and you wish he would talk to you more while texting and show some personality. If your relationship isn't long distance, then there's really no need to text him if he's that boring. You can just see him in person if you don't feel like confronting him about this. It's not that big of a deal, I know a lot of people who just don't like texting so they don't say much in a text, maybe he's one of those people.
there are a lot of applications on facebook that say they show you who views your profile but do they actually work? like can people actually see who all views your profile?
Hey, I was actually wondering the same thing the other day so I did some research. I found out Trackzor, an application on Facebook that allows you to see who views your profile, is somewhat glitchy. The only way it works is if you have Trackzor yourself. Apparently it can't track anyone who hasn't installed/used the app. As long as you don't sign yourself up for any of those types of apps I'm sure no one would be able to track your profile views.
Let me know if you find anything else out!
Can a vigin have a STD? I was reading someone's answer here on Advicenators and they said that virgins can also carry STDs and spread them to new partners. The person even said that some babies are born with STDs or something and pass it to you later as adults if you have sex with them. Is that true or what?
Well it's pretty true.
A mother can pass on HIV to her child if she unknowingly has it. She can also carry on HPV without even knowing she has it. HPV is a pretty silent STI, you don't know you have it until you get checked by a gynecologist. I'm sure there are other things a mother can pass on, but it's very unlikely considering mothers get blood taken while being pregnant and also have many gynecologist appointments, so I'm sure if a mother had an STI they'd know of it before the child was born, and do what they could to prevent it.
As long as your mother has been previously tested (blood, gynecologist, etc) and has checked out fine, there's no way she spread an STI to you. The only way a virgin can have an STI is if their mother has one or had one. Also, if you do drugs that require you to poke yourself with a needle then you are also at risk for STIs, you never know who else has used them.
My boyfriend hasn't been tested for STDs in a few years. I think he was tested when he was 16 because he found out his girlfriend at the time had herpes. He tested negative for herpes and everything else then, I guess, because he didn't say anything came up positive.
Well, he's had sex with maybe like 5 girls since then and so maybe 7 girls altogether. I've had sex with 2 guys and have never had a STD test because I'm only 17 and the guys I've been with before told me that they're clean.
I have a few bumps on the inner part of my vagina lips though. I don't remember having them a year ago though. My boyfriend said it looks like a couple of the other girls he's been with and it's probably nothing to worry about. The bumps don't hurt or anything but they're pretty noticable and they aren't going away. My boyfriend doesn't have these bumps though and the other guy I had sex with didn't have the bumps. I saw my best friend's vagina before though (don't ask!) and she didn't have bumps like this.
Is it normal to have bumps in the vagina?
Well there could be a lot of reasons you have bumps down there. They could be pimples; very normal lots of girls get them it has nothing to do with STDs. They clear up, it takes a while but they eventually dry up. They could be ingrown hairs, much like pimples (gross, I know) but they take months to go away, not harmful to your body. Or it could be an STD called HPV; completely harmless to the body if you have low-risk which can cause warts, depending on which kind you have. It clears up within 2 years on its own, but it's nothing to be scared about. Low-risk HPV is an STD about 50% of women will get in their lifetime, so don't worry too much. Or it could be herpes, but you won't know until you see a gynecologist.
I know it's kind of scary going to a gynecologist but trust me I've been there, done that. Talk to your mom if you can or go to your nearest Planned Parenthood and schedule an appointment. Although it is definitely 100% better if your mom is there to take you and support you.
If you and your boyfriend have had multiple partners, your chance of having STDs is higher especially if they didn't wear condoms. I know this sucks to hear, but don't ever trust anyone with your body. Always be protected because as much as your boyfriend loves you, he can always lie to you about whether or not he's gotten tested or whether or not he actually has an STD. Many men prefer to spread STDs to women so other people suffer along with them.
If you have any other questions you can always mail my inbox, I have a lot of experience with this sort of thing and can tell you what to expect.
right after the university people first talk to them, after tony gets off the train? the song starts right after the guy says "any more questions"

I can't find it anywhere! :( and I really want to. Its played like 2-3 times in the episode and its really good!!
I'm sure one of us could help you, I tried but the video link isn't working. =/
My mom is into drama big time!! and is immature,she is also two-faced and is a very negative.She even talks crap about me and my brother's and think's its ok.She always twists and makes up storys about me and my brothers too tell people.You can't talk to her about anything because she runs and tells everyone what you tell her she cant keep things to herself.She called my nephew stupid and thought it was okay.you cant tell her how you feel because she doesnt care,she'll just say your crazy
Ugh, I know exactly how you feel. I don't trust my mother at ALL when it comes to personal stuff sometimes because the rest of my family finds out the next day. I mean she doesn't do it with seriously personal things, but if I have a boyfriend she'll go and tell my family, maybe it's just because she's excited who knows.
My suggestion is don't confide in her about anything of importance (talk to your friends or dad if you can) It's obvious there's something going on with her to make her be so rude to people she calls family, especially her own children.
My mother can also be very negative and judgmental, but she's working on it. Every time I say something it seems to some what get through to her that she's being really mean to people she hasn't even met, or judging them before even talking to them.
Just let your mom how mean she's being and if that doesn't work, then there's not too much you can do except just let her do her thing, just learn from your mother's attitude and realize it's not the way to be in life. She needs to know it's her family that she's insulting, ask her why she even had kids if all she's going to do is shit-talk them and be immature.
I think you're already a better person for knowing what she does is wrong, and you're obviously a lot more secure about yourself than she is about herself. I also think you're way more mature. The only way to get through to people who are into drama is to ignore what they say, eventually without having anyone to say these things to, she'll get over it.
