It means there are a whole lot more guys out there just like you.
In other words...If you don't straighten up I will just go find another. Cheap evidently. :)

i got my belly button peirced like 2 months a week ago, and after 4-6 weeks you can change the ring, so i changed mine. but the banana bar i put in has like a little lift kind of on the bottom and so i changed back to my old ring, but its sore, only a little bit though, not like hugely sore. i dont know if its infected .. its not pusing or anything its just red and a little sore. i dont know how to tell if its infected or prevent it from getting infected. What do i do if it is infected? any special cleaning or product thing??
and someone told me that if it gets bad enough it will just fall out?! is that true .. they also said if that happens u wont be able to have kids later in life ... :-/ .. is that true too?
Can Anyone Help PLEASE!! i dont want to have to take it out .. (link)

It's probably sore because it takes a long time for body piercings to heal, and it might not have been done healing.
It takes different amounts of time depending on where your piercing is. Changing the bar most likely just caused it to break back open.
If it is red and sore and you think it is getting infection, you might try to remove the bar and clean it and your belly button with peroxide to disinfect. Be sure to dry both well before replacing the bar (peroxide can make it worse if you don't dry it. To leave it wet will keep the wound from healing and may cause further infection).
You might also keep neosporin, or another triple antibiotic ointment on it for a couple of days. Just cover with a bandaid to prevent it from getting onto your clothes. You might also move it around a few times a day. Moving it prevents the wound from healing to the bar.
I have never heard of it getting bad and falling out. I guess it might if it were to get infected enough to get gangrene (but I hardly think you will have that problem).
I also have never heard of anyone having problems with body piercings that cause infertility. What a silly idea!
I'm sure you had care instructions when you had it done. treat it as if it were just pierced.
Wait a few months before changing bars again to
ensure it is fully healed. I dont see any reason you may have to take it out.
You can also contact the place were you had the piercing done for further info.

this may seem weird. but i thik that i am semi depressed. i went on a website to learn more about depression and saw the symtoms and i had alot of them. lately i have been feeling really lonely and left out with friends also ive been experiancing guy issues so that may be it. but i dont nkow what to do (link)
|
It probably is the guy issue.
You can be depressed and snap out of it. Right now you're having a perfectly normal reaction to a bad experience.
The only time you need to worry about getting therapy or something is if it continues for a really long period of time.

there is this girl that i've liked since 2nd grade and i like her even more.i am now in 9th grade and i think she is the one but i am afraid to ask her out because i am afraid she will say no. so what should i do?i am a male. (link)
|
You just have to get brave and go ask her. She won't know you like her if you don't.
Start out just talking to her saying hi when you see her, that kind of thing.
Then she will write us a "does he like me" letter!
Here is a site of asking someone out tips. Check it out and see if you find something you can use. :)

I recently just started dating someone that I like soooo much but my friend is pissed off at me!i did tell her that if he asked me out then id say no bc of how he acts but when he asked me out i just couldnt say no!shes now saying..."how could you choose him over me?"when i never did that!shes acting like i ditched her but i would never do that!!!what do i do? (link)
|
Once a girl gets a boy the boy tends to be a little more important. that's normal and the way life goes.
My guess is she is jealous...which is also natural. She will have to get used to someone else sharing your time, just as you will have to do when she starts hanging out with a guy.
Try your best to reassure her that you are still friends. Other than that there isn't a lot you can do. She will just have to get used to it. :)

my period is late by a week but i am on birth control am i pregnant? (link)
|
Were you on the pill at least 30 days before having unprotected sex? If so, then probably not.
A week really isn't that late, even though the pill does keep things pretty regular.
Call you doctors office and ask the nurse. If by chance you are, you don't want to continue taking the pill. :)

heyy well heres the thing .. i'm getting old and i haven't started to shave my legs yet. with winter coming up i can wear long pants but in gym, we have to change into uniforms that are shorts. all the popular and good looking guys are in my gym class and i don't want them to get any wrong impressions .. i want to bring this up with my mom but it really gets uncomfortable talking about puberty and such .. i really need some help! thanks ahead of time ! (link)

You could always ask her to get you some Nair. Much better than shaving anyway.
I do have a website that has tips for talking to your parents about things. I'm sure it could help out here. :)

I'm 15 and I think I have social anxiety disorder. My parents keep urging me to get help from a counsellor.. but I can't. It's really pathetic but for me the idea of having to sit in a room with a total stranger and answer questions or something is pure torture. I want to get help but how can anyone help me when I can't speak to people? (link)
|
Seeing a counselor is really a very good idea. I know it will be difficult, that's part of the disorder.
I think if you ever want to be able to function around other people in a way you would enjoy, you have to bite the bullet and see someone.
Walking in the door is the hard part. Once you accomplish that you are the road to getting better. Go. :)

I saw the question on social anxiety disorder. I was just wondering what that is and what are the symptoms. Thank you!! (link)

Signs and Symptoms
Some of the signs and symptoms include:
1. An extreme fear of a situation in which you have to meet new people or you may be scrutinized by others.
2. The feared social situations are experienced with intense anxiety or avoided entirely.
3. The anxiety-provoking social situation causes physical symptoms like blushing, sweating, shaking, trembling, tense muscles, shaky voice, dry mouth or a pounding heart.
The basic symptom of social anxiety disorder is of being very anxious in the presence of others.
If you suffer from social anxiety disorder, you may think that other people are very confident in public and you are not.
Just blushing may feel horribly embarrassing to you, and you may feel like everyone's eyes are always on you.
You may feel anxious about giving a speech, talking to a boss or dating.
Some people with social anxiety disorder are afraid of public speaking or parties. Others feel terrible anxiety about using a public restroom, eating out, talking on the phone or writing in front of others.
Almost everyone experiences some social anxiety now and then; it's normal. However, social anxiety disorder consistently limits the lifestyle of those with the illness, in some cases causing them to not participate in school, avoid making friends or miss important opportunities at work.
Some people with social anxiety disorder avoid all socially related situations, severely limiting their life, work and social relationships.

Say yes if that is how you feel. :)

What are ways of reducing anxiety? I'm a senior in high school so I've been pushing myself to do really well this year. I am also putting in 20+ hours a week at work which takes up alot of my time. I get stressed out over the littlest things that deal with school. Just over small assignments & tests. I want to do well but I can't seem to stop having this anxiety about everything. Besides medicine, what are ways to reduce my anxiety? (link)
|
You are really pushing yourself. I sure hope you take some time during the weekend or something to just do nothing. If you don't consider it.
I have some websites for you. One even deals with test anxiety. Hope you get some use ouot of something found here. :)

What should you do when you have a sprained wrist? How do you get the swelling down & how long should you not move it & stuff? Any other advice that is helpful. . . (link)
|
First of all, if it is still pretty swollen tomorrow...go see your doctor. Some sprains can require more than the usual RICE protocol. If you have fallen on it you may have torn some ligaments and a doctor will have to immobilize it for a week or so.
For now do this.
R... Rest your wrist at least 48 hours. Don't use unless you have to.
I...Ice to reduce the swelling. As said by someone else, put a towel or something between your skin and the ice. Do this for 15-20 minutes at a time. By the way, a bag of frozen veggies will work too.
C....Compress. If you have an ace bandage, wrap it up. Not so tight that you cut off circulation and turn your fingers blue, just tight enough to keep it from moving.
E....Elevate. Hold it above the level of your heart as much as possible. This helps with the swelling.
Remember, if its still swollen 48 hrs from when it happened. See your doctor and have it checked out. :)

i just came back from arizona and im really dry... like dry white stuff on me... i use alo and skin softener... it works a little bit... how can i cure this? (link)
|
Aloe is good for burns but I find it kind of dries the skin out otherwise.
About all you can do is just keep the lotion on.
It really soaks in good of you put it on immediately following a hot shower. :)

I just started a new job today in the clothing department of a superstore.
The store hasnt opened yet so we were cleaning the diplay tables for the first couple hours which was fine, but then my boss had us folding clothes onto the tables. She told me TWICE that I wasn't folding them neatly enough even though I was trying my best. I was working with two other girls and she was being harder on me than the other two and I'm not sure why. I was so stressed out about it that when I got home I wanted to throw up and I went staight to bed.
My next shift is tomorrow and I really want to impress her.
Does anyone have any advice? (link)
|
See, told you they'd call you in!
Try your best tomorrow. It may even help if, when you got to work (maybe a little early) You go to her and talk.
Tell her you had a little trouble with the folding yesterday and it really upset you. Ask if she would give you a quick lesson in how she'd like it to be done.
This will let her know you are eager to do the job right. It will also make her feel important because you asked her for help.
If she is also new to the job, she may have been on a bit of a power trip. I think if you ask for her help, she will move on and bug someone else. :)

ok the other day i was a t home (i live with my freind and her fiance temporarily) and we werw all at home when a friend of her fiance's came over. and later that night he tried to kiss me when we were alone (my freind had went upstairs to get soem cards and her fiance went to the bathroom) and he tried to kiss me. now mind you i have a boyfreind alreay, and what the guy did made me really uncomfortable. now mind you he didnt ACTUALLY kiss me, but he tried. i was able to "get away" if you will before he atually kissed me. but my question is, should i tell my boyfriend and if so how? i mean i know he is gonna wanna kill the guy for laying his hands on me, adn then he is gonna be upset b/c he wasnt there to protect me. how should i handle this i dont know what to do. i mean i dont want to tell him b/c i dont want to get him upset. and i dont want to not tell him, becuase omissions are betrayals. help me please!!! (link)
|
They key word here is "tried". Since he didn't get it done, there is nothing to report.
I think it would be fine to let it slide.
And don't feel guilty about it ( if you do), because you did nothing wrong. :)
|
hey!.....i like this kid and hes a year younger then me in school...anyways..i started talkin to him just like 2 months ago and we barely talk but hes really hawt....like i cant stand looking at him because i just wanna kiss him so bad anyway..i told his friend that i htink hes hot and his friend told him and he says the same about me...and he hasnt done anyhting about this...i mean he smiles at me once in awhile wen he sees me and he says hi or w.e and his friend was supposed to hook us up but this kid i like lives in a different city like 15 min away...not a problem for me i drive..but i dont know how to get his attention more or how to take our friendship to a higher level...we have a lot in common and he was surprised that i thought he was hot so i dont know
help me!! i rate high (link)
|
What you waiting for?
Get up the nerve to go ask him out! Could be hes intimidated by the fact your a year older. He may think your kidding, or he may just be a little shy.
Go ask him out before someone beats you to it. :)

Whenever im out at my cousins house all of the guys think im hot ( this is in a different city) But when at school no guys really think i am. I think im pretty except my smile, i really need braces and im getting them in about a month, do you think thats why no one at my school thinks im hot? (link)
|
No, I really don't.
Chances are they don't think your hot because they are just used to seeing you everyday. You are something new to look at when you go out of town!
Doesn't mean you aren't hot.
Try a change. Change your makeup, highlight your hair. Nothing major. The little change might make them look a little closer trying to figure out what it is. :)

Ive liked this kid rob for about 3 years, and hes liked me before, but weve never went out. we are always flirting, and the reason he said he never went out with me was cuz i didnt talk enough, but now i do talk to him. Now, he has a girlfriend,when shes around he dosent talk to me but pays attention to her ( like he shuld) but as soon as he leaves hes flirting with me again. Idk what to do. Theres this party coming up soon and his g/f wont be there but he will and i will..i really like him..But i dont want to feel like im breaking them up. What if we end up making out or something? What can i do?
Please answer. (link)
|
Oh wow, what a dilemma.
I guess you could just steer clear of him at the party. Hard as that might be.
The best thing would be to talk to him if he starts to flirt with you.
Let him know you are interested, but no so long as he has a girlfriend. You may also want to let him know up front that it isn't your intention to break them up.
I think he would have more respect for you if you told him that.
Should he break up with the other girl, then I guess you will know his feelings are sincere and he isn't just out to use you. :)
