Hey guys, i like to read a lot, and i've read many famous books like To kill a mocking bird, Catcher in the Rye, Harry potter, and so on. Anyways does anyone know any really really good books, and authors for when i go to the library next time? And i dont want books that you have heard sound good, but actual books you guys have read and really enjoyed, like an "i never want to put it down" kinda book if that makes sense. Thanks luv ya!

THE SEVENTEENTH SUMMER-- my all time favorite book, it`s definately a "you gotta read" book.. i love that book, i just finished it maybe a week or so ago, i like to read a lot too!!

hope this helps!

I have a friend who is a cutter. She has been for as long as I can remember. Lately, we have become best friends and I felt like cutting, too. Not because I have a bad home life or because I have stress in my life or anything like that because I don't, but I think it's because I am best friends with her now. I did cut my legs up pretty bad just 2 weeks ago, but then I never did it again and now they are healed. I keep getting the urges to cut, and then I tell myself not to. But I still can't help but feel so influenced by her to cut myself. A long time ago I used to cut because I liked it, but that didn't last long and wasn't as obsessed with it as I am now. I love this girl with all my heart. She really is a GREAT friend that I had since pre-school, but I need help with trying to stop thinking about the whole idea of cutting all together. I must admitt that I did REALLY like it, but I know that it is unhealthy. But I STILL get those urges and they keep getting bigger and bigger .. HELP !* signed., helpless soul

i think you should talk 2 someone more experienced, like your mom or something.. this is a serious problem that should be handled professionally.

hope this helps!

okay so me n my girlfriend have been going out for a while and shes moving faster than i want to weve done everything but sex...i dont want to be one of the young tenn fathers even if we use a condom it could still break... if you could answer this i would really appriciate it

just tell her that you aren`t ready for sex, or kids, or anything of that sort. tell her that your not comfortable with taking things so fast.. and that you want to just slow down. Your apart of this too, you have to tell her how you feel about it, or else she`ll never know, and she`ll just think your fine with what`s going on. If she loves you, she`ll understand. To slow things down, take her out on a date, movies or out to dinner, somewhere where you guys can just talk or whatever.. but stay away from sex.

hope this helps!

I put a post up on a penpal website looking for a Japanese penpal to correspond with so I could improve my Japanese and they could improve their English. I specified that I was looking for a Japanese penpal but still recieved two emails from non-Japanese speaking people. I am not interested in corresponding with them but don't know whether to send them an email saying, "Sorry, but I'm looking for Japanese friends only." which seems rather rude or to ignore their email and not reply.

What should I do?

i think that you should, take the time to just talk & e-mail them back. Send one e-mail and just talk about, whatever really. But at the bottom say "i`m really sorry but i didn`t mean to find you as a penpal, i was really looking for a Japaneese speaking person, for a specific reason". I`m sure they should be mad or insulted!? you did tell the truth..

hope this helps!

I know what 69 is...but I was just curious as to why its called what it is. Anyone have any ideas?

Simultaneous oral sex. Can be practised by M+M, M+F or F+F.

The reference is that the numerals 6 and 9 are inverted versions of each other, reflecting the physical position that the couple must adopt when engaged in this sexual practice.

please read this and help me..i'll rate 5s..just please i desperately need help more than anything


i fell in love with a guy named harrison about 2 years ago, and we have been unseperable ever since then. we'd always have the occasional fights between us, and i was crazy about him, and he was about me too. i loved him more than anything in the world, and this was not just puppy love, this was the real thing. he was my first and possibly final love, and i lost my virginity to him. when he moved to iowa last year, we still loved each other and he never even attempted to go out with any other girl. he was the best thing that had ever happened to me, and i loved him..i truly mean it. he was always there for me, he was there when mother died, i lost my best friend, and when i had to have a heart surgery.


recently he died in a car accident. it wasn't his fault at all, it was horrible luck. he was driving on a highway and a drunk driver crashed into his car, killing him. i cried myself to sleep for months, and i just didn't care about anything but him. i was obsessing yes, but i loved him, and i know he loved me too. he was the only one for me, and i know he's gone now and i should move on and look for other guys, but i don't think i'll ever find anyone else like harrison. i will still of course try, but i cannot help but feel horrible. sometimes i feel i should kill myself so i can join harrison up in heaven, but i have never succeeded. i am hurt beyond words, and i don't know what to do anymore. please help me, anything will help right now. thank you so much for reading all of this.. love, lauren

OMG.. i`m sooo sorry. it must really really hurt because you loved him. but please, please, please don`t kill yourself over it. ok, i dont think that you should move on just yet. Let things cool off a little. I`m sure that you`ll find someone else, don`t worry, this world is filled with great guys, maybe they all wont be as amazing as Harrison, but i`m sure you`ll have a lot of luck, ok!? if you ever need help with this you can always talk to me, or your friends or anyone really, just please don`t stress out too much, relax & calm down. Just take a couple of days to yourself to think about it and to just reflect, and then maybe the best thing from there is to move on. But don`t entirly forget about him, but don`t obsess over him, you know? Just keep going on with your life..

i wish you the best of luck & love to you!

i was in my friends pool all day today and after a while, it hurt when i wiped my eyes so i stayed in for like a half hour longer and went home. now my whole face is red and hurts really bad. how can i treat this right now and without having to go to the store because i have no one to drive me there

cool yourself off.. take a cold shower, or use an icy cold wet towel.. if you have any aloe vera, it works great for sunburn`s!

hope this helps!

I am 13 and i will call the two boys that i fancy 1 and 2. 1 is a real stunner, blond spikey hair, blue eyes a, six pack, and he's my age, but he doesn't like me as more than a friend i don't think although it seems like he's flirting with my sometimes. 2 is 18, dark brown, spikey hair, blue eyes and he's REALLY sweet, but everyone keeps saying he's too old for me, and he doesn't fancy me anyway. What should i do because i really like both of these lads and i don't know which one of them to fancy and whether i should ask one of them out or not so please deal with this question as soon as possible. I will rate you high. Thanks

i say you go with 1, hey a guy with a 6 pack is hott.. lol, juss playin.. well, i mean, a- he`s your age b- even though he may just like you as a friend, you never know what could happen eventually? c- if it seems like he`s flirting with you sometimes.. hey.. again, you neevr really know!? 2.. yeahh he seems a little older than you, maybe you like him but in a sort of "older brother" sorta way you know? I say go with #1.. and if things don`t work out, you have a back-up, #2.. and i`ll have #1! =P lol!

ok,i went to NH with my friend and missed this party. There was a girl there and i didnt want her to be friends with MY friends. 2 girls -- Jill and Sandy are my friends and i didnt want her to be friends with this girl Tiana. I just dont want them to like her more than me..i know im being a bitch but i dont want Tiana to be friends with Jill and Sandy..Sandy told me she was acting like her bffl...and that made me kinda pissed.. how can i accept that Tiana is going to be friends with them? Tiana used to be my good friend but we split up..and i just want everyone to be friends and i can accept it.

uhmm.. lets see, so you can`t except tiana being friends with your friends, jill and sandy. well, this sound corny but, i think that you should TRY your best to accept her. Even if it seems like your being left out, try doing things with all four of you together. If you were friends with tiana before, then what`s making things so different now? if i were you, i would just learn to forgive & forget.

hope this helps!

what is masturbating?

Masturbation is the manual excitation of the sexual organs, most often to the point of orgasm. It can refer to excitation either by oneself or by another (see mutual masturbation), but most commonly it is restricted to such activities performed alone. It is part of a larger set of activities known as autoeroticism, which also includes the use of sex toys and non-genital stimulation. There are also masturbation machines used to simulate intercourse.

hope i helped..!?
