I love my boyfriend very much, but I spend 90 percent of my time critiquing his driving skills when I am in the car with him. I don't do this with anyone else. When I drive, I would get horribly mad if he did this, but he is an angel. I do drive occasionally, and he really isn't that bad of a driver. So other than giving up my chauffeur, what else can I do to focus on something besides badgering him like a freak?
Try having some other kind of conversation. Listen to music. Anything to keep your attention from his driving skills. It's good that you're asking advice, and don't want to hound him about something like this. Restraion yourself and try to talk about something else.

Also, Seamonkies are sold at some toystores, I know in the US Toys-R-Us is a biggie.
I never really knew the whole hype about simple Brine Shrimp myself, but I too have once had seamonkies. Strange little guys.

I'm going into my senior year of high school and I haven't had a boyfriend in almost a year. (its by choice) But my question is
Only if you want to. I'm going into my senior year - I do have a boyfriend, but if I didn't it wouldn't bother me much. You never should feel you need a boyfriend just for the sake of having one. It's a good idea if you find a boy you like that likes you back. In all honesty, though, relationships can add a lot of stress to your life that you may not want to deal with. Unless you really find you feel something for some boy, don't stress about boyfriends.

ok well yeaterday at about like 2a.m. I went driving in town with my cuzine and her older bro (he's only 17) he drove us around and well he was smoking pot in the car so I got totally nervous and I didn't know what to do so I just staid in the car worring my butt off and when I got home at around 10 my dad smelt the pot and asked me if I smoked but I didn't pin it on my cuz did I do the right thing? I rate high:D
Well, you shouldn't have to take the blame for things your cousin does. If it's not causing a problem with your parents, there's no reason to mention it but you can always just tell them the truth: that someone else had been smoking it, but you did not try it. NO need to name anybody if you don't want to.
That said, try not to catch a ride with that cousin anymore if he's gonna smoke. If someone is stoned it's gonna have basically the same effect as if they were drunk - and you wouldn't go into a car with someone who is drinking and driving, would you? ((hope not)). That's just an accident waiting to happen.

Okay so i admit, i've never had a boyfriend. im 14 years old and going into 8th grade. ive been told by guys that im really pretty and have a great personality. im not overweight, im not unpopular or stuck up. what keeps me from being something guys like? i have guy friends, but whenever i like a guy, they never like me back as much. i dont think highly of myself when im around people. i actually tend to be more shy then anything around guys. but, what can i do? i know every guy is different but... ugh im so stumped!! please help, if you answer my question good ill give you a rewarding 5! =) thanks!
ps: im not just trying to get a boyfriend because of people around me having them, its whenever i find someone i like, they dont feel the same...
That really isn't uncommon. Don't feel so inferior around other people! There is no need for that. Feel good about yourself, and stay friends with your guy-friends. Unfortunately, you can't make anyone like you - but this doesn't mean no one will. Not to mention, that there may very well be guys that like you and you don't even know it!
Are the guys that you usually have feelings for your friends? I recall my 7th-8th grade years being full of guys who were my buddies, but once they were close enough to me to be friends, they wouldn't cross that line.
You can't do anythign about that, but things may change. Just wait it out, you don't really need a boyfriend right now anyway. Perhaps you'll get in touch with someone you like, perhaps you won't. You have plenty of time for that, so just keep feeling good about yourself.

I mite try out for baskbetball or sum sport, so in a physical, do they have to do anythin w/ur private parts or down below? thanks
If you get a routine physical from your regular doctor they will do everything like they always do - which may include checking your privates (such as your breasts, if you're female and outside of down-below if you're human).
If it's just a nurse or school nurse checking you, they may check your back for sclerosis, which will require you to lift the back of your shirt, but that should be all.

Okay, the thing is, I'm confused. I know this is going to sound stupid, but I need to ask. People are always asking about tips on kissing and making out. I've never done either of those things, but what gets me muddled is the whole 'it comes naturally' thing. I mean, is it really based on instinct, or should i be worried about my first time doing all those things? (I'm having a hard time getting my point across here, work with me). People ask things like 'where should i put my hands' and 'what kind of kiss' and 'how do you french'. Are those things that you really need advice about, or do they really all come naturally and people only fret because they haven't done them? Is it better to have people tell you how-to's so it'll go better, or is it all going to come together anyway? I hope you don't find me too silly for asking, I'm just(like I stated before) confused! Thank you to all who choose to answer
People genrelaly get all fussed about these things, especially before they have done them. As long as you're comfortable with whatever your actions are, you'll be fine and need no assistence. It's pretty hard to mess up kissing, for example. You just go with what you feel. Thinking too much during such actions will probably make the moment akward, anyway. People really generally worry for nothing.

Can someone get pregnant from pre-cum?
Because precum contains some sperm, it is possible to get pregnant from precum, or any semen that is even close to your vagina, like on your very inner thigh. However, while that scenario is not as risky as having sex without a condom, you still should be more careful. Some girls' reproductive systems are more prone to reacting to that than others, but a condom is always, always advised if you're getting a little fiesty with a guy. That, or else one of your should have your clothes on at all times. There's no use in putting yourself into a position where you have to worry about pregnancy, because that is one thing I'm sure you don't want right now.

ok. well i live here in a town called fresno. fresno is a town of really down to earth, cool people. most people aren't really wealthy, which means theres hardly any stuck up snobby people etc.
well.. now im moving to the town next to fresno, called clovis. and clovis is a really nice town. home to people living in MILLION dollar homes. a lot of wealthy people living in that town. so.. theres definetly gonna be snobby rich b**tches there.. and i dont mix well with those kinds of people. meaning, i dont like them lol.
i dont totally have anything aginst them tho, thats just not the type of people i like to hang with or be around..
so of coarse. im going to the school there called buchanan. so like.. im really worried that im not going to make friends because i dont care for rich snobbs which is mainly what the school is made of.
WHAT DO I DO??? how do i make friends..
love, manda
I'm sure there will be at least some rich kids that are not, in fact snobs. Try giving people a chance and be who you are at your present school. If certain people act snobby to you first, then you know that they aren't going to be your buds. Just don't jump to judge anyone before you know them.
Good luck, in any case.

I have really thick hair and i can wear it down there is only one way i can... if i hairspray it when its wet. other than that it poofs out. and if i sraighten it then it looks bad. i am alsoo constantly pukking it back into a pony tail. what are some cute ways i can wear my hair that it isnt too much of a hassle?
If your hair is extremely thick, you might want to consider getting it layered and/or angled. It'll take the weight off of your head and you may be able to get it to behave when it's down with less of a hassle. Doing this sort of saved a friend of mine with her ridiculously thick hair.

Okay, i've been having weird period cycle's.. at the beginning of the year i was having periods around the end of the month the 25th or 27th then they started earlier like the 15th every month for a few months well.. just last month and the month before i had my period around the 6th.. well today is the 10th and i haven't started my period yet! I don't understand this. I'm 17 and i feel like a dork. I have had sex before just to let you know.. last month about a week after my period well i'm pretty sure i'm not pregnant because i took a test and i'm not. But, i still don't understand why my period hasn't come yet..? I know this is probably weird but i'm having all my normal symptoms as usual.. i'm eating a lot more like i always do before my period and i'm eating chocolate "alot" and that's always before my period.. but i haven't started yet? This has been going on for like a week now. Everysense i've been with my boyfriend for about 8 months my like has been stressed with so much stuff.. do you think thats whats causing it? Stress? Or is my body just not normal..? Could someone help me please..!?
Some people just plain have irregular periods. I'm the same age as you and my periods are just as crazy. It shouldn't be something to worry you, but if you want you can always talk with your parents or doctor ( under doctor-patient confidentiality, meaning they won't discuss this with your parents unless necessary) anout using the birth control pill. This can usually help a lot of girls regulate their cycle and ease pains when you get your period. But really, having an irregular period is quite normal, as everyone's different.

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.
BEfore answering your question directly, I'd really want you to consider if this is something you really want. This is a hole in your body. While I am all for body piercing, I just hate to see people go for something because they like it on a whim and then a few years later regret it entirely.
Secondly, please try to find a nice, clean studio. A clean studio should look professional. You should be able to go inside and check everything out BEFORE deciding to get pierced there. Go to more than one place in your area and see what looks cleanest, most like a dentist's office. A good pirecing studio will also have a fully functional Auto Clave, which is what dotors and dentists use to sterilize everything. Ask to see it before you let anyone pierce you.
Lastly, you need to do some research on your own. Go to http://www.BMEzine.com - there is so much awesome information here. Look for the link on the front page that says "tongue" and you will find pictures and stories galore. To help you decide if this is right for you.
Everyone is different. Some people have little or no pain the whole time. Some people's mouths swell and hurt for days, maybe even weeks. As with every piercing, there are also risks. If not taken care of properly, you could get an infection and die. If you are in some other sort of accident by some awful chance and need CPR or a breathing tube, your piercing could get in the way.
These things don't happen very often if you're careful, but I'm just trying to make you aware that it could. It's important to know the risks. Tooth breakage is also a common thing to consider - many people lose teeth because of biting down on the barbell. This can be avoided by using acrylic jewlery and being careful in general, but still something to think about.
Please also go to the following sites:
http://risks.bmezine.com/?Tongue_Swelling
http://www.bmezine.com/risks/index.html
http://www.bmezine.com/pierce/02-tongue/bme-pg02.html
- and please read all the experiences, good and bad, that you find there. If you have more questions pleas drop a question in my inbox or contact me via email. :)
Good luck, happy piercing. Be safe!

Kevin1986 here again. I've been hearing a lot about guys only look at looks and everything like that. Lemme set the record straight here. If a girl is hott,she's a lot more likely to get asked out,true enough. But very few guys will tolerate a hot bitch. We're much more likely to go for the average looking girl with a great personality. I get pissed when we're made to look the bad guy and not every guy is as shallow as you describe. And besides,who are you more likely to ask out,Brad Pitt or the nice fat guy down the street? Stop being so hypocritical.
Both men and women can be shallow. That's the way it is. True dat, true dat. I hear ya, brutha.

I have a problem with opening up to my friends. I've been a big flirt for like my whole life! I even won biggest flirt at my middle school. But I havent really DONE anything if you know what I mean. Like I kissed but didnt make out. ANYWAYS i have two best friends and they havent done that either! But I have a secret. I actually have gone farther than that a couple times... I'm not comfortable telling them about it because they asked me what happened when "john" came over to my house and I told them NOTHING! so then they would know I lied to them. I dont want any answers saying something like "be honest cuz thats the best" blah blah blah!
I just dont know what to do....
Well, it's really your own business what you do with any boy. It's between you and himn, really, and nothing more, unless you want to let your friends know. Really, it's all up to you. Keep in mind that they may be there for you for support if you ever need it, and opening up to them could help them comfort you when the time comes... but it's only their business if you want it to be.

when you use the common application to apply for college, is it okay to print it out and mail it to the college instead of doing it electronically??
It's definately OK. As long as you get it to the correct office and college then you shouldn't have any troubles. If you don't know where to send it by any chance, the college should have an office of admissions that you can send it to and that address should be on the site for the college.
I'm not sure what you mean by the "Common Application", but if you really have any questions you could call the college and simply ask. The people there should at least be responsive enough to answer any of your questions, and it shouldn't be too hard to find the number to the admissions office.

Okay i have my bf of 4 years you all know this if you answerd one of my questions before and all but anyway...
I love him to death but there are times where he really frustrates me like today he wanted to see me and i had things to do and same with yesterday hes like you made plans with me and i never did hes really bad at forgetting things too...but he gets really selfish on things all the time like wanting too see me..well me i have dance and soccer practice and house stuff that i do all the time and i still try and make time for him but when i have littel things that come up he gets pissed when i think that he should really just understand that these things can come up...What advice would you give me to give him beside the things i already say to him like love goes fonder when not together i mean yeah you miss the person but for me i love him more nd more every second and everything and there are times when i like to just be by myself in my room and not have him here...what do you think i should tell him besides the things that i already tell him?

Four years is a long time to be in a relationship, and all relationships are going to take work. Because you have demanding hobbies such as dance and soccer, he might just be immature enough to get jealous of those activities, because you aren't spending time with him. Let him know you care about him, but these activities are things you will not give up. Tell him you'll set aside a certain time each day, maybe - to talk to him on the phone or hang out. Let him know you care, but that you want to do all the things that make you happy, including seeing him. You're still two separate people, and you both should be able to spend time apart without it being an issue.

i play drum set and it's fun, but i never really want to practice or have a lesson. people are always saying "that's so cool it must be so fun to practice" but i get bored. my parents say that if i want to i can take a year off or something, but i think if i do they might get mad or think that i want to quit or something. I also think that if i take a year of or something my teacher will think i want to quit, or maybe i'll decide to quit! i don't know. should i just stick with it or take a risk and take a year off?I DON'T WANT TO DISSAPPOINT ANYONE, INCLUDING MYSELF!
Well, think about it. If this is really something you like to do, then just because you're stopping the lessons doesn't mean you're necessarily quitting altogether. Maybe the lessons bore you. That's happened to me before, and after I hit a certain point I just had to go it on my own for a while. It's not really a 'risk' to take a year off from lessons if you're going to continue to play for yourself. That's why you play, anywho. For yourself, not for your teacher or parents. Just have fun playing drums and that's all that matters.

I want white skin not like totally white but just white skin...I maen my skins dark and thats because of the sun and all but I hear you can use stuff to make it whiter and I was wondering if any of you guys knew wat I could use to make it whiter I mean I wash my face and all but nething else and I dont wanna use makeup because I dunno I guess I just think that it doesnt help that much so if anyone knows nething I can use or do please tel me thanks!
There are certain bleaches and creams that are said to whiten skin tone, and are more popular in eastern culture than in western culture. However, I've read that they aren't very good for your skin, can make it extremely delicate. It's just as bad as going to the tanning booth too much, causing severe damage to your skin. You could ask a doctor or dermatologist about it, but I advise against using things like that. You're tan will fade after a month or two, and using strong sweat-proof sunblock will prevent tans in the future.

hey..i really need help!!..well for this summer i have this reading homework 2 do for my freshman honors class...i have to read this 100 pg book..nd then a 300 pg book..along wit these journals!..well i have less than 3 weekz till skool starts...i was half way done! except one of my journals i had typed up was erased!! and not on my computer any more..so i hafta do that all over..plus the other journal!..i cant concentrate!! i need help!!
Ouch. That's a lot of work. You just have to take it, one thing at a time. I'd start to do the hardest things first, and work your way down. Spend at least an hour a day (or a few hours every other day)doing your work so you'll be able to budget your time. I feel your pain about the lost journal, that sort of thing has happened to me before. I'd get that one re-done first, because most likely you'll remember a lot of what was in the old journal. You're half way done, and that's good. So as long as you make time for your work and concentrate I'm sure you'll have no problems.

So i've been going out with this girl for almost 8 months now, right? Anyways, I love her a lot, I really do, I just dont know if I am really what she wants anymore. She teases me about other guys and stuff constantly, and she really gives me the impression that she doesnt love me as much as she used to. Can someone help me on what I should do?
Unfortunately, you can't really do a lot about her changing feelings - if they have indeed changed. The only thing you can really do is talk to her. Tell her what you've just typed - that you've noticed her teasing you and that you think she might be losing feelings for you. Some people push their significant others away so that they don't have to initiate the breaking-up. I don't really think that's very fair, but the only way you can figure out what's in her head is to talk ot her, and be honest with her. Hopefully it's something that can be worked out, but if not, at least you went through with it now instead of waiting for the relationship to drag on longer.
