about

I'm Christina, and I'm 27. I tend to be brutally honest when I give advice or an opinion. I don't tell people what they want to hear but rather what they need to hear. They don't always appreciate it at first, but I usually get a thank you in the end.


I have 15 tattoos, and 8 piercings. I'm married and just gave birth to a baby boy in May. I'm currently a SAHM so you can find me taking care of my son and binge-watching television while he naps.

hey im supposed to write an essay on peoples fears, and i was thinking of doing it a bit differently.. like telling about their fears, and then telling how you got them (which should be a funny story) so do any of you have any?
thanks..

I have so many fears. Most of mine are from watching movies.

I'm scared of spiders. That one happened by itself, I just always thought they were scary looking, but then I seen the movie Arachnophobia & I just got freaked out even more. Plus, I've gotten bit by one, and they seem to like crawling on me without me noticing, and it's scary.

I'm scared of clowns. I seen the movie IT when I was like 5, and now I've just been scared of them ever since.

I'm scared of leprechauns & scarecrows. Jeepers Creepers & Leprechaun did that to me. I watch them now, and they're kinda funny, but I'm still kinda scared.

I'm also scared of dolls. Chucky did that to me, and my cousin used to have a My Buddy or whatever they were called which was based on Chucky. So that just made it even scarier. And porcelain dolls scare me so much because I have this feeling they're evil & that they watch you.

I have more, you can ask if you'd like.

i am friends with benifets with this guy i realllllly like,but he treats me like all he wants is a booty call...alot of girls like him and i wanna be with him soooo bad but he acts like he dont like me that way. He went out with 2 of my friends and he was the sweetest thing to them and they treated him like crap! i know i can treat him better...why cant he treat me like he treated them? how do i get him to treat me like them?!! :"(

Okay, this probably isn't what you wanna hear, but face it, the truth's the truth. And the truth hurts. Yeah, you're a booty call. You are friends with benefits with him, which is what a booty call is anyways. So, you're right. You're a booty call. He doesn't treat you that way, because he doesn't like you in that way. It doesn't matter if you can give him the world & treat him better, he won't care because he only sees you as a friend/booty call. You'll never be able to get him to treat you the way he treated them. It just won't happen.

I'm a 19 year old female and I've been with my boyfriend for almost a year. I know it may sound crazy, but I havent told my parents yet. His parents know and they approve of me. But my parents seem to disapprove of him because they think having a boyfriend in college would distract me. I've already proved them wrong because I've gotten straight A's this past semester. My parents met him during thanksgiving, but still disagreed with me having a boyfriend. Theyre also very hard to talk to and are shallow saying that he's too short when he's taller than me by 2 inches. I respect my parents, but after a year of lieing to them about our relationship makes me feel guilty.

What do you think is the most proper way for me to tell them? Write a letter? Have my boyfriend's parents talk to them? Or... straight up tell them in person and hope for no lecture??

You're 19 years old, and your parents are worried about you slipping up on your grades? What the hell!? You're 19, if you can keep your grades up you can manage a boyfriend. Tell them straight up in person. I think it's rediculous that they disagree with it, when you're at an age where a boyfriend shouldn't be something a parent dislikes.

Hey iam a 17 female and I just found out that one of my friends that i've been best friends since 2nd grade is bisexual and I don't know what to do is it ok for me to still be friends with her or what?my mom's very prejedice against people who are gay and bi and she told me not to associate with them,but she's my best friend and I don't think I can stop being friends with her all at once what should I do?

Get over it. Not everyone is straight. Tell that to your mother. Just stay friends with her. Sexuality differences is a really stupid reason to stop being friends with someone, especially when you've been friends for a really long time.

ok. my brother keeps watching porne. i was making mac and chesse and i needed to go on the computer and i saw this one girl liek showin her boobs and naked and stuff. it seems so weird becuz my brother is so nice and smart you would never suspect it and everybody loves him. he got introuble with my mom and dad before and i dont want to tell them again. im worried because i dont want him to grow up and turn into this like rapist or whatever when he grows up. i dont know if i should have my 18 year old sister then again im not comfortable telling her. i dont know what to do. he watches all this stuff.please help me.

Just leave it alone. He's growing up, and if he likes porn, then so be it. Give him privacy, and let him do his own thing. Why would you wanna tell on him, and make him mad at you. Just let it be.

If I don't like a person for a good reason, usually my best friend doesn't either. (I'm not saying she has too, she just .. doesn't like them) She'll say bad stuff about them, totally hate them, and be completley rude to them. Then when I hate them the most, she'll go off and be friend with them and tell them she lied about not liking them for my sake.

It really sucks cause then those people hate me more, my best friend sucks up to them, and I'm left alone! What should I do?

Try not to make friends with backstabbers & keep to yourself.

I have a guy friend that I really like, and I think that he wants to ask me out. The only probelm is that I'm now allowed to date. Now, I'm sixteen, and my parents don't want me to date until I'm in college (which I think is unreasonable). I'm not even allowed to have guy friends, so I have to sneak around to hang out with him.

Now, I know my parents wont understand if I ask them if I can date him, but should I still persue it behind my parents backs? And if so, how could I manage that without them finding out?

Don't sneak it around behind their backs because you know that when they find out they'll be kinda pissed. I'd just talk to them about it calmly, without getting upset when they say no, & ask them. Let them know you'll be responsible with him [no sex] and then see what they say. If they say no, don't throw a fit, just say "okay" and walk away. If you're all harsh & super "omfgihateyou" then they definitely won't let you. Hope I helped!

i have no idea how to delete music from my mp3 player. someone explain it to me step by step please. thank you.

When I delete songs from my mp3 player, all I do is plug it in to my computer & then I go into "My Computer" and click the folder that's for my mp3 player. And then I click the songs I don't want, and delete them. Then when I take my mp3 player off the computer, the songs are gone. =] Hope I helped.

im not really sure that this goes in this category but umm...yeaa. my best friend,lets call him ,enrique, has just lost his virginity. im really worrid for him because i dont think that he was ready fo it. to make matters worse. he just got a phone call from his 'friend' lets call her,tiffany, saying that she doesnt love him anymore. he really got attached and im not sure what to do for him. he used protection and everthing. so im not worried about that. so what im asking is what do i do to comfort him. hes really upset.btw 14/f

Just be there all you can for him, and let him know that everything's okay, and that it's her loss not him. Let him know that he's an amazing guy, and any girl would be lucky to have him. Just comfort him as much as possible.

WARNING LONG I like black.I weir black nail polish and alot of black eyeliner.In a few days im dieing my bangs that hang in my eyes black to.Now i have had my hair pink,purple,green,blue,red and other colors at different times so people already think im weird also im emo and i get made fun of because i used to cut and i dont think people know but they might it was a big thing with screming and trowing things around (mostly by me) and so people no somthing happened and because im emo that what they think it is true but still.i think im ugly and i hate myself i get jelous easly realy easly also i think i might be bi.whats so bad about being emo being different.i no people are gonna hate me and think im weird but im not sure what my problem is anymore it was sposed to be about my hair but now i think i may have bigger problems.i dont eat until i start shaking alot. im a 13 female who feels alone and dosent wanna cut agian and whos going into 7th

I know exactly what you're going through. I don't dye my hair, and my hair's not in my face, but I dress/do my makeup the same way you do. The kids I go to school with consider me an outsider, while I think of myself as the kid who's just there. I'm a freshman, and I've been cutting since 7th grade. Anyway, since I know what you're going through, I highly recommend a psychiatrist [sp?] so you can get the help you need, and the medications to help you. Good luck, and I hope things take a turn around for you.

please help me some one.

I personally think that 17 is too young for children. My cousin's 16, and she's like, 4 months pregnant. I'm not disappointed in her, I'm happy for her, but I'm kinda ashamed that she didn't wait til she was older. Anyways, I'd talk to your boyfriend about it & see what he wants, but even if he does want kids, I'd wait a few more years. No teenager is physically or mentally stable to handle a child.

what does the school do if they found out that you skipped a class or something??

It depends on the school. They'll probably give you a detention or something. Don't worry about it.

hi!! i moved from another country to america about 10 years ago and i never really had a boyfriend because my parents were against it since im a european girl and "i dont know nothiing" anyways i finally got a bf and weve been together for a year and my parents actaully accept him...and im 18 by the way...our realtionship is great accept im scared to tell him that my parents dont have the best jobs in the world ..to me its embarressing ive been hiding it for a long time from my friends too...my mother cleans but thats normal for foreign women..and my father does like waxing and stuff and they both work at night so its great in my case ;)...but how do i tell him??? help me..i dont want him to be unattracted to me...and they get paid a lot though..

I'm pretty sure that if you've been with your boyfriend for a year, and you tell him their jobs, he won't care. If he does, he's shallow because if he really loved you, it wouldn't bother him.

If you try one cigarrete do you automatically get addicted to smoking?

Nope. I've done it a few times, but the times I did it were very spread out [months/weeks]. If you smoke like everyday, then yes, you'll get addicted, but not from just one ciggarette.

Take a pregnancy test to figure out for sure, if you haven't already. And then sit him down, tell him. And then both of you should sit down with your parents, and his & let them know. =] Good luck!

I`m supposed to be the advice GIVER, not RECEIVER. . .right? Then why am i so confused? School is about to start and i am in a class called "Publications" which means i write the school newspaper and do the yearbook. I am NOT a dork . . . i am actually pretty popular. But a lot of people think it`s a pathetic class. should i drop out and be in study hall, or stay in? I`m so confused.

thank you in advance.

If you like the class, stay with it. Don't drop out & miss out on something because other people find it dorky. Who are they to judge? I'd stay with it. Who cares what people think?
