Ok, well my friend is having this party this coming saturday and shes inviting her cousin. i think he's really fun to be around and stuff but all he wants to do is makeout with girls at the party. i like him, but im not into like just meeting a guy and making out. and since ive never made out with anyone, im scared. i was thinking of just not going to the party so i wouldnt have to worry about him wanting to make out. wat should i do? im 13 and hes 15.

Just go to the party, have fun, chill out and hang out with your friends.

If he tries to make out, then just tell him no. It's a pretty big turn off when guys go to parties and make out with every girl there.

I really like this boy, and i think he likes me. (i kissed him a few times.) But then my best friend comes out of nowhere, saying that everything he said to me was a lie. She didn't tell me the WHOLE story yet, but since then i havent been able to get in-touch with her. i dont know what to do. I wasnt to believe her because she's my best friend, but people warned me about her, how she lives to ruin people's lives. I dont wanna talk to the boy untill i hear the whole story, but i dont know how long it'll be before i see my best friend again. Wat shud i do?
p.s. Airie! i'm an auqaiurs too!!

Judging from what you have said, you might not want to believe her. BUT you should still be wary of this boy until you get the whole story. Maybe if you brought it up to him, then he could shed some light on the situation. If she continues to avoid you about it then that might be your only option.

MODS PLEASE POST THIS

has anyone actually lost belly fat from their stomachs by doing crunches or does it just make u look like u have a 6 pack or w/e

You get the six pack by losing the fat in your stomach and gaining muscle. Crunches do both.

2 nights ago i went to the mall with my boyfriend and my mom let me go with just him and she was happy because "for once i told her the truth and she trusted me". she just told me i couldnt go outside. but that was what me and my bf were planning to do all along, just sit out and get some air and everything. so it was going fine and we ended up going outside and had an awesome time. but i had gotten some grass and stuff on my shirt and my mom noticed. she asked if i went outside, and i told her no. tonight she told me she knew and wa yelling at me and said that i lost her trust and i am not going to be allowed to do anything for a while. i cant use the pc, phone, and she said untill i regain her trust i wont be going anywhere like that again. so for one thing, i have no contact with him. 2, i cant stand my mom i am not going to listen to her if i did i would have no fun in my screwed up life 3, everything is hard enough already and she makes everything worse. i am so messed up and i am ready to just run away or die or something. i dont know what to do, and i cant stand anyone. help me

Everyone goes through this kind of situation with a parent. I understand how you feel, but think about this...

Your mom let you do something when you told her the truth about what you wanted to do.

When you lied, you got punished.

You seriously should have just told her the truth about going outside. She definately wouldn't have been as upset if you had told her the truth. Now, she is always going to be wondering if your lieing about any situation. If she can't trust you, then she's never going to give you space. You need to show her that she can trust you, and that your responsible enough to do the things that you want to do.

Just be honest with everything you say to her, no matter what. She will learn to trust you eventually.

During your first year of h.s. do u hang out with new friends or friends from ur grammar school cause idont have many friends from my grammar school and im worried that i wont have nayone to hang out with if i dont make friends ritee away?

It's not the end of the world if you don't make new friends right away.

Don't stress about it too much, there are going to be a lot of other people in your same situation, so a lot of people will be looking for new friends. Even though you don't have a whole lot of friends from grade school, it doesn't mean you'll be stuck with no one at all to hang out with.

if someone asked u if u evr had an orgasm , and u hav . wuld it b weird to say yes? wuld they like make fun of u or sumthing.

That's a very odd thing to think. I can't imagine anyone ever making fun of your for having an orgasm. Orgasms are wonderful things, go have as many as you can.

It wouldn't be weird to tell them that you've had an orgasm, but it can be a pretty private thing, so, if you don't want this person to know, then just say that it's none of their business. But don't be ashamed that you've had an orgasm.

This Subject probably doesn't match but any wayz, I've heard that eating a lot of carrots makes your boobs grow bigger and my friend had like none and then like a few months later like 6 months or something maybe a little less, she has huge! Is it true? She said carrots helped since she ate some like every day! Thx I'll rate yall 5!

Carrots help your eyes.
Your friend must have grown up more in the six months that has gone by.

If someone you love turned into a zombie, would you be capable of shooting them in the face? Or would you let them eat your brain?

haha... hmmm...I would feed them cashews. Cashews are great, even better than brain.

How old were you when u got your first orgasm?How can i give myself one?

When I got my first orgasm... hmm... I don't know what age I was. I was first experimenting, it doesn't matter what age you are, as long as your experimenting.

How can you give yoursel fan orgasm? Well, it's different, with differnt' people. Some people only come with internal stimulation, some only come with extenal stimulation.

If you really want to give yourself an orgasm, and you haven't learned how to do it, then just experiment. Try using a dildo, or fingering yourself. Try rubbing your clit. You really can't listen to everyone else, because each person feels different, and they will be stimlulated by different experiences. I would suggest searching online for "masturbation techniques" I know you might come up with a lot of porn site, but just bypass those and find the informational site. A lot of info site on here can help you come up with techniques to help you pleasure yourself.

does ne one know a song that's like
"I can see you"
...
"Summer of.."

that's all i really know of it. it's a guy rock band.

boys of summer is the new version, but did you know that that The Ataris did not actually write this song? There is an earlier version, that almost sounds identical. When I first heard the boys of summer, I was brought back to my childhood of when my mother used to listen to the original version of this song. I believe that druid got it right.

Hi. I Want To Get My Tounge Pierced And I Was Wondering If It Hurts And Just Some Details About It. Like Should I Close My Eyes If I Get It Done. And Is It Worth It? Will I Got Into Shock? ( If you have never had it done dont answer because i dont want wrong advice ) Thanks.

It might be different for different people, but when I got my tongue pierced, it seriously felt like a pin prick. It's afterwards that really hurts. When you talk, your tongue moves up and down, which moves the piercing, so you will be extra quiet for about a week after you get it done. Yes, it is definately worth it, the pain only lasts a week, or even less. You should try to stay away from dairy during that time, and you will only be able to "eat" liquids. I ate mostly yogurt, even though yogurt is a dairy. Depending on how sensative you are to piercings, dairy's are more prone to give you infections. Just make sure you put a ingestible-safe piercing solution on it every single time you eat something, drink something, or just when it hurts. Carry a water bottle around everywhere, because water will sometimes help to numb the pain.

Ok, I might be making it seem worse than it is, but it really is worth it.
While your getting it done, you could close your eyes and concentrate on something else if you think that will help, but when I get a piercing, I just look off to the side and focus on a picture, or something on the wall. You won't go into shock, but you might get a little dizzy. Most of the time, if it's a good, professional piercer, they will have you stay there in the same position for a minute or so to make sure that your ok.
Just so you know, the only time I got dizzy was when I got two piercings right in a row, you should be fine.

Hey i have a dog and Our family loves him to death. He is an outside dog but we take care of him very well. The problem is that whenever i invite a friend over it seems like they think i abuse my dog and they ask me tons of questions what should i do so that i feel more confedine and not get scared when friends are coming over or when i invite a friend over?

www.dogsdeservebetter.com :)

"a study cited by National Animal Control News (March/April 2004) concluded that dogs who have been chained or tethered for more than eight hours per day are three times more likely to bite their caretakers than if they had not been chained."

I just have a few questions. Does your dog live outside 24 hours a day? Do you give him attention daily? Do you brush him, make sure he always has plenty of water and shelter?

Personally, I do not think that it is very humane to make an animal live outside away from a loving family for it's entire life. Would you like it if you had to be stuck outside hooked to a chain, while everyone else is inside having fun? It doesn't sound like much of a life, does it?

I feel very passionately about this subject. Chained dogs, especially dogs that are chained 24 hours a day are so much more likely to bite a person, and possibly kill them because of their unhappy life. I can't stand it to have dog's get a bad reputation because it had a terrible life, and one day snaps at some kids passing by it's house. I own a rottweiler, and because of the bad reputation that they have gotten, my extremely sweet and gentle dog is avoided when I walk him down the street. I am having a very hard time finding an apartment that will allow him, because insurance companies decided that it was ok to discriminate against certain dog breeds. I blame uninformed owners.

Please do not take offense to this, I am only trying to warn you. Tell your parents that a dog that spends it's life chained is so much more likely to turn mean and aggressive and will go after someone in your family, or a stranger passing by.

You might think that you are loving your dog and treating him/her good, but you could be terribly uninformed on this subject. Please Please visit www.dogsdeservebetter.com I hope this website will be informative.

Again, I do want to offend you, only inform you. If I am mistaken to what your dogs life is like, then you might have nothing to worry about, but any dog owner owes it to their wonderful pet to at least take the time to get more informed. Please visit the website, again it's www.dogsdeservebetter.com

Thanks for listening, if you actually took the time to read the entire thing.

does anyone on here have a shar-pei? if so, does yours smell really bad? mine does and i was wondering if its just the breed, like odor gets up under the wrinkles or something, or if its just rolling around in something really nasty

Dogs that have wrinkles like Shar-Pei's, are really prone to skin problems. You need to take extra care to clean between they're wrinkles and keep them dry. Get DogFancy's September issue, it's all about Shar-Peis.

I've always wanted one, they're so adorable, but then I read that they are quite nasty to other animals, small children, and strangers. So make sure you are socializing him so that he wont try to attack a young child or small dog (or a large dog, he will likely get his butt kicked if he goes after a large dog)

At my school, I'm like the only one who doesn't know anyone in my class. I don't want to be left out. I want people to notice me. How can I get some people to look at me and say she looks like a nice girl or something. I want to get to know some people. I'm trying to take advantage of this! Thanks! -Charlee

Don't try to blend in with the crowd, try to stand out. They will all soon get to know your wonderful personality. It's not really how you look, it's how you act.

im like really in love for the first time... and we are going out and everything.. but ive had so many short term relationships taht all my friends are like " your not in love... you'll be done with him in a couple months" but thats so not true at all cuz im heals over head for this guy..... and to add on to all of it.... i dont know if he feels it as much as i do.. and im kinda scared because i have been hurt so many times.. i dont want him to be another one of those guys taht was really great but then puts yet another bruise in my heart... i dont know how to explain to my friends or him how much i really love him... i know he loves me back cuz i can see it in the way he looks at me.. i just dont wanna lose him... ever.... please help me!! haha thanks!

When I realized that I was in love for the first time, I was scared to death. For much of the same reason that you are scared. I didn't think of it, as "I've been hurt so many times before, I don't want to be hurt now" because honestly, I hadn't been hurt before... because I wasn't in love with any of the other guys, it didn't really hurt when we broke up.

But I was scared to death to actually have loving feelings for this person. I didn't want to lose him, it would hurt way too much.

Honestly, there is nothing you can do about the future, you two may make it forever, but you also might not. Try not to worry about that. If you worry about it all the time then you will miss out on the great things that are going on in the present time. If you can't enjoy the things that are going on now, because your worrying so much, then that could be a factor in you two some day breaking up.

As for your friends, all you have to do is prove them wrong by staying with this guy and showing yoru feelings. They will get the picture eventually.

okay this is an extreamly random question but the other night i was watcing the movie french kiss and for those of you who've seen it the french guy luke he said that when he first fell in love with a prostitute that he had to pay more money to kiss her than to have sex with her... why is that?

Have you ever seen Pretty Woman? Julia Roberts, as a prostitute would not kiss any of the men because kissing is a really intimate act. When you get older and more experienced, then you will understand why. To just make out with a guy to have a new experience, or to be able to brag about doing it, that is one thing... but to make love to a guy and passionately kiss him is a totally different and wonderful experience.

This is guy is so wacked man. What are you doing your paper on? I think he spent like 3 hours at my work signing books. He smokes only Kool cigarettes, and writes bizzaro messages in your book.

dude, that's awsome, you gotta be joking.
My report is going to be on a couple of his short stories, mostly taken from "Me Talk Pretty One Day" I've been thinking about 'Go Carolina', 'See You Again Yesterday', 'Jesus Shaves', I also love 'Ashes' from "Naked" and when he became a Macy's Christmas Elf is great too. The problem I'm having is finding literary sources on David Sedaris himself. My teacher said that I should find sources on satire and humor and it's effect on literature. When you said he only smokes Kool cigarettes, it reminded me of 'See You Again Yesterday'. He is going through his long list of what any potential boyfriends must have, and one was that they absolutely cannot smoke Merit cigarrettes. Apparently He's very particular about his brand of cigs.
Are you a fan of his? Him writing bizzaro messages in the books doesn't surprise me at all, when you think about what his books are actually about.
Do you have any ideas on what would be deserving of a David Sedaris essay?
