about

I'm Erin and I am 18 years old, I turn 19 in May. In the past year, I've moved over eleven times, I have experienced all of the lows life has to offer, and I have given my advice to many people I have come accross. I helped them in the past, so why can't I help you?


advice

how do I get a guy horny without acting to slutty..or really touching him...lol

Ok, as far as I know.... Males aren't that hard to get aroused... no offense guys, but it's true, just admit it.

My advice to you is to casually flirt, you don't have to be a slut, but catering to the guys ego certainly goes a far way. You can also try stuff like accidentally sitting too close, touch him accidentally and pull away bashfully, or even a friendly touch on the knee. You don't have to be all over the guy, but let him know you're interested. Who knows what way the night will turn to, just be careful out there.

kinda long sorry
ok so there's this guy(22) from church that i think is very sweet and cute (im not sure if i like him). Well hes super sweet and nice to me so the thing is I wanted to get his number for a long time but i just never had the guts to ask him for it. Last Friday I got a call from this number i didnt know. I decided to answer and it was HIM. He wanted to ask me something about church. Do you guys think he likes me?? I mean he got my number from idk who and called ME when he obviously could of called someone else like his cousin.
Also, now that I have his number saved I get the feeling of textin him. But I have no idea of what to say or whether I should text him. I mean he hasnt but like he works Mon-Sat and Sundays I always see him at church.
Should I text him or not? If yea any suggestions on what to say please??

I think you should go for it, after all you only live once right? What have you got to lose, if he doesn't like you in that way, then you gain a good friend but I think he does like you, I mean, you said it yourself, why ask you if he could ask his cousin? right? I think if you just text him and say "Hi", ask him how he's going and just have a normal conversation you'd have with a good friend. You've made a move then, so he doesn't think you don't like him. Sometimes a little bit of casual friendle flirting is all it takes.

Go for it and good luck.

okay last night i had "sex" for the first time.? but im not sure if you would call it sex. the head of his penis was in, but thats it cause the rest wouldnt fit. could you tell me if thats sex and what is actually considered sex? like, is it when the whole thing is in or what?
thanks!

Because it is your first time, your body isn't used to it. You will naturally feel a tiny bit sore and it probably won't fit because it is too tight. But I would say, yes, you did have sex, even though not all of it could go in.

Being curious doen't mean you are bisexual, it just means you are curious. A LOT of women get like this about other women, we sometimes find ourselves attached to other women, this doesn't mean we're in love with them. Have you thought about how she makes you feel when you first see her and how it makes you feel if she touchs you (non sexually, just friendly.

Think about these things, we all get unsure some times, that doesn't mean you're one thing or the other. If you're curious, you might get in a situation where you try something, maybe try to kiss her etc, if you like it, then go with it, if you don't then you know.

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with being bisexual, it's all about being comfortable with yourself, don't be afraid to find what makes you happy.

I'm a freshman, 15. All my friends are having sex with their boyfriends, I want to have sex with my boyfriend...but I'm scared you could say of getting pregnant, there are so many risks.. But I really wanna do it. Am I too young? Should I do it, cuz I do love my boyfriend alot? I'm just so confused.

Peer pressure can be one hard driver. A lot of people have thought they wanted to do things because other people are all doing it. You need to make sure you are ready. You need to ask yourself if you would want to do it if all of your friends were in the same situation as you. It is perfectly normal to be scared on your first time but if you feel you want to go into it, there are a few things you can do to avoid pregnancy.

Go on birth control pills.
Have him wear a condom (which is the better of the two for now because it also protects you from STI's (Sexually transmitted infections)
There is also the option of the morning after pill if something DOES go wrong, so try not to worry, there are many options to keep yourself protected.

so going on from the title its pretty obvious whats up, i went round her house yesterday and she tried it on with me nothing too big to start then she started sittin on me and tryin to kiss me, although i wanted to so badly i didnt. and its been playing on my mind ever since (i posted a question a little like this a while ago) anyways, i left there feeling kinda... well, 1) horrified that she would do that even when she has some one allready and then she goes an tells me shes done it before with 2 other guys while she was going out with this one guy and shes all like come on do it he wont find out sorta thing. then over msn i sed somthing that relaly hurt her and i feel bad now i cant stop thinking abotu her and am starting to feel regret that i didnt do anything with her, which is like the worst thing i have thoguht in ages. i need some one else to point out pro's and cons just so i can clarify that what i'm thinking is right/wrong

Well, I must say that I am proud of you for resisting, it was a good thing that you didn't do anything. If the other boy did find out, which he probably would have, it would have hurt him, and then you'd have to think about that as well. You avoided a large problem by not going there, it is very honerable. Well done. Second of all, if she cheats on her current boyfriend, if you end up going out with her, how could you really trust her? It seems like you could do a lot better because you seem like a nice honerable guy. thirdly, maybe find out WHY she is doing this, it could because she feels she needs the attention or maybe she just wants to feel wanted. You might be able to help her as a friend, but my opinion is to leave that one alone. SORRY.

I'm 13 and about 5'4" and about 120 pounds. I have friends that are 100-105, so I know it wouldnt be unhealthy to lose 15-20 pounds. Are there ways to quickly and safely lose weight that have been affective?

Alright... You want to lose weight quickly AND safely, unfortunately the two don't really go together, if you're losing a few pounds a week, that's healthy.

If you want to lose weight, I suggest going for walks, it's also a good way to clear your mind, also maybe using weights. There are little tricks you can use to speed up your metabolism.

Try drinking a glass of warm water with lemon juice first thing in the morning (I know it sounds gross but what have you got to lose?) *chuckle* Also, keep drinking about 6 - 10 glasses of water each day. I've tried heaps of diets, the good thing to do is set a goal weight and a goal date, please try to make this realistic. You could also try eating less junk food, instead of chocolate, try an apple, you'd be surprised at how much an apple can fill you up because it swells in your stomach. Try eating more fruit all together, and vegetables, but don't forget things like lean red meat. if you do this and a bit of excersise on the side, you'll find you'll be on the right track to losing the healthy amount of weight.

Hi guys im underweight and i need to gain a few pounds ,i have tried going to the gym and that doesn't work ,is there anything i can eat to gain weight and pls don't answer if you don't know

There are a few things I can tell you to gain weight. You could try eating a bit more red meat, this will help muscle growth. There are also protein shakes and additives you can get from a chemmist. Asking them what they think would be best for you as I don't know your age. These protein shakes are good for people who are underweight and it keeps them healthier and stronger.

well.. i have this ex boyfriend, let's call him Jimmy. And Jimmy and I went out about 2 years ago, and we had a harsh break-up. Because ever since we broke up, he's been giving me the cold shoulder. And right now I have a current boyfriend, and out of nowhere, 2 years later, he messaged me and it said "
i know i hurt you and i didnt mean to i was just so stupid back then... i may still be dumb but i grew up i know your really mad at me and may never talk to me again you dont have to talk to if you dont want to. i made a big mistake not apologizing to you sooner and an even bigger mistake for hurting you i didnt realize it... no its not that i didnt realize it i was just stupid i was just so mad.... ever since i left you my life hasnt been the same.... i just hadnt realized you were the best thing that happened to me... i'm glad that i met you... can we jst be friends and start over again i'm so sorry" then, i forgave him, and we started talking on aim. And he couldn't tell me something, because he thought it'd be awkward.. but eventually i got him to say what he didn't want to tell me. he told me that he didn't get over me yet, and the reason why he was single for so long now, because his past 2 girlfriends didn't make it easier for him to forget me, because when he went out with them, he says that they made him realize how good of a girlfriend i was. and that he didn't really like those 2 girls. and i asked him what he's been doing for the past 2 years, he said "thinking about you..." and i promised i wouldn't tell anybody. But i felt happy when he told me that, because NOBODY had liked me for that long before. And then, i told him the truth.. and it was that he was the best boyfriend i ever had. and he said "=) i miss talking to you" and he still does that at times, but two days later.. we stopped talking, but we do at times when we aim each other. but he's also going back to giving me the cold shoulder. and so i was wondering.. does he still like me? or is he acting like this because i'm taken now? answer this please!

ps. guys are very complicated to deal with.

This is always tricky because when 'love' gets involved in relationships, it's always complicated, but my best guess would be that yes, he does still like you. By the sound of it, even though you broke up, you seemed pretty good for each other, just remember why you broke up in the first place because it might happen again. I don't say that to discourage, I say that to be realistic. Yes, boys are very strange when it comes to relationships. What I believe your ex boyfriend is doing is self preservation. This is where, he might not want to get too close because you're in a relationship. Believe me, it hurts when you fall in love with someone you probably can't have. I've been there done that and moving on is sometimes the hardest thing to do. I suggest to give him space, don't stop talking to him but let him figure it out for himself, this may take time, but he should have a good idea of what he wants when he's ready. Just wait it out, live your life and have fun, when you're both ready, take it slowly and don't forget to REALLY communicate.

Okay, so lately, i've been kind of boerd...with life. its like nothing is exciting anymore. i kind of just do the same thing over and over and over again. i wake up go to school come home, do homework watch t.v or go ojn the computer. i just don't know what else to do. i guess i could join clubs and stuff but i don't really know. is this normal? what things should i do to become less boerd? i don't really hang out with friends that much, because the thing is i don't have that many. its just like they're ALWAYS busy. i'm not that smart so if i turn to school as a way to become less boerd, it won't work. but i don't know..please answer and don't answer if you don't know!

It is normal during school to get bored and want to move off to bigger and better things, we've all been there so don't feel so left out. As for the friends thing, find more that share your views and opinions, there are always people out there that are interesting and do funny things. As for wanting to find something that occupies you, try reading, or even writing a book, this is a great way to open your imagination and it'll give you a hobby. If you can, save up a heap of money and when you get out of school, for the holidays, go with a bunch of people on a camp. This may sound lame but it's a good way to get to know people and get outdoors. If that doesn't interest you, then try sports, find things that you're good at and expand on them.

Okay so my boyfriend and I dry hump or whatever. And we realized that he might actually go in me a little bit so that might be bad...But he wears boxers and bball shorts, and i wear nothing. Weve done that before and I have continued to get my period so I believe its okay as long as you dont do it for too long.... And well we did that in the hottub the other night and i had nothing on and he had his swimsuit (mesh and then fabric) and we didnt do it for that long, so how bad can that be?

should we stop? or is there a safer way to do that same thing but not using a condom, maybe something else?

There are always risks during sexual intercourse( even if you are wearing clothes) leading to pregnancy, however, there are simple things you can do to help prevent this from happening. He could wear a condom, you could start taking birth control pills, either way, it is always better to be safe.

15/f. so my school is having a talent show. i already know that i want to be in it, and i know i'm going to sing, but i dont know what song to sing. i have a huge range and can pretty much sing anything that is thrown at me. i'm trying to get away from the "pop-like" songs that i've done in the past few talent shows. does anyone have any suggestions for me?

I once had to sing in front of a huge group of people, and believe me, it is almost critical to get the right song for you. If you want to steer clear of the pop-like songs that have been done so many times before, I would try something a little different. Somthing catching. If you like singing sader songs with a difference in pitch, which will show off your talent, I would go with something like Foolish Games by Jewel or Hands by Jewel or something along those lines, soft, sweet and full of emotion.

let me know how it all goes.

Well I've fingered myself plenty of times before..but for some reason ill never have an orgasm. nor has a guy ever given me one. Why is that and how can a make myself get one? like when i do ill think i might but ill get tired or not as "wet"

First of all, it is perfectly normal to masturbate and explore your body, this is how you know what makes you tick, however, there are many different ways for women to experience an orgasm, sometimes penetration isn't enough. While masturbating, try stimulating the clitoris (which is a just above the opening of your vagina) it is sensitive and probably won't take as long to cause climax. This way you will know when you start to experience an orgasm.
