im gay and i want to tell my perants that im gay i know my dad would accept it but my mom would beat my @SS so what can i do to get my mom to accept me?? (link)
|
i read about this, i dunno i guess it was kind of a joke...but it seems like it would work. basically in the one i read this guy leaves a letter for his parents explaining how he ran away to go live in the woods and grow drugs and all that with his girlfriend who is pregnant. and then adds a ps at the end saying this all isnt true, he just wanted to prove that there are worse things than bad grades.
you could try something like that and it may work. :)

drinking green tea and lemon juice (not together) can increase your metabolism...but the best way is through exercise and eating right. :)

Opinions, please!
I'm looking for a cologne (hopefully under $50) that my boyfriend would like. I know he's into mild stuff - like stuff you can spray and not choke yourself and other people with - and kind of oceany-breezy-type-smells...Light stuff.
Anyone have any ideas for me?
I'm new to the world of scents...my mother has allergies to like, everything and I'm finally in college - I want to be SCENTED! Lol...So yeah.
Any suggestions are helpful =). (link)

bath and body works cool springs. (its about $20 and in the male scents section in a blue bottle)it's my favorite. :)

Alright I have been battaling eating dissorders for about 2 years now.. but i have thought i was fat sense i was about 7.. I thought i was done with the whole problem until i just made myself puke.. It would help if I just had someone to talk to =/ Im not sure what to do. Im not going to tell my parents or any adults or anything cause ill go to a hospital! please help me! (link)
| |
an eating disorder is a hard thing to deal with on your own because of all the feelings that come with it. find someone who you can talk to, maybe someone else with an eating disorder, i know there are blogrings on xanga for those with eating disorders under health, weight issues. so maybe try and find a buddy who can be your support team. :)

hey this is a quistion for all those guys out there-
do you prefer girls with or without makeup? thanks:-) (link)
| |
i think that guys either a)don't know the difference, or b)don't care. lol. once i didnt wear makeup when i was with my boyfriend and i told him i wasn't wearing any, and he said he couldn't tell. but...if you wear alot of makeup you look like a mask. makeup's a good way to bring out your natural beauty without covering it up so if it's applied correctly, and with the right colors for you, you will look gorgeous, and guys will notice that there's something different, even if they don't know what that something is. :)

Ok, so there's this site that has free e-mail and everything, but I can't remember what it's called. Typical, right? I know that there are cool endings to the e-mail addresses like @mostwanted.com and stuff. I just can't remember what it's called or anything. Anybody know what site I'm talking about? (link)

I'm 15 (almost 16) and female.
A certain *someone* constantly complains about my naps. I take naps because I get tired.
In the past I used to sleep extremely late (we're talking about from 2-4 AM or later) during school nights. However, I would also get half of my other sleep during the day when I got home from school, since at night I was busy with homework. I couldn't resist taking a nap once I got home from school because I'd be way too tired to concentrate on homework anyway if I didn't nap.
This is probably a question for high schoolers and up, because those with a large homework load will understand why my sleeping schedule is this way.
Now back to what I first said. According to that *someone* naps are horrible and it's totally killing my health. Okay, I understand if I don't get enough sleep it is really bad for me. But I do get enough sleep. Not to mention I don't sleep that late anymore, I try to sleep as early as I can (latest is 1 AM so far because of homework).
What I want to know is, are naps really that horrible? If you don't get enough sleep will your health be really bad? If you sleep enough, but part of your sleep is at night and part of it is in the afternoon is that bad in anyway? What advice would you give me in order to help me sleep earlier? I understand that *someone* cares about me a LOT, but it gets really annoying to always be nagged about when honestly I already am trying my best to get a normal sleeping schedule and it is really hard to NOT take naps.
Thanks a lot! (link)
| |
now naps are not bad. i know i like coming home from school, sleeping for 2-3 hours, then waking up and doing homework. its like a quick refresher. the only danger with taking naps is that you sleep so much during the day that you can't sleep at night. as long as the naps are not interfereing with your nocturnal sleeping, then there's no problem. :)

i love my boyfriend and i know he loves me too but somtimes i feel as though he s lying to about little simple things like why he couldn't come over , y he couldnt call back just little things, i trust him and i love him,sometimes i feel like his love for me is fading away he said he still cares and he loves me but he makes things so difficult between us, hes changed a lot but not in a way that i would want him to change i talked to him about it, and he said he was going to make things better and that was days ago. but there hasnt been a change yet. what should i do? please help i dont want to lose him (link)
| |
try talking to him again and saying that if there isn't a change, you will take control of the situation and that may not be to his advantage. if he really loves and cares about you, he won't want to loose you. or find a time where u can sit down in person and talk about everything that's been going on with both him and you and try to identify what could've changed. :)
|
theres two guys who like me...
my ex-boyfriend and my neighbor i'm not sure which one to ask out becuase with my ex-bf i would only see him once every two weeks or something but i really like him but then my neighbor is 2 houses down and i really like him too but he stayed back and it would seem like i'm going out with someone whos not my age.
So which guy do i chose? (link)
| |
if your considering not dating your neighbor because your afraid of how it will make you look because he's in a lower grade, you shouldnt be even going after or wondering about him. and just because you only see someone once every two weeks doesnt mean it can't work. you both just have to be willing to make it work and to see eachother whenever possible...and if that is only once every two weeks, then take what you can get. :)

Ok so i don't know whats wrong with me! its been like a year since i saw my x bf and i am beginning to miss him. Everytime i think i miss him.. ok but i don't understand why because he was horrible to me! he did not care for me. He never even gave me a card for my birthday but i miss him. What shall i do, I don't think i want to talk to him again because i want him 2 miss me. But im not sure if he does!! help. (link)
| |
you probably don't miss him as much as you miss having a boyfriend. so try and move on, find someone else who can treat you better. and who can care for you. :)

well i am planning a camping trip for about 13 teenagers and adults. We'll have a 5th wheel (Camping Trailer) so we'll have a stove, Mircowave, oven, etc... but I'm having trouble of thinking of simple (but yummy) dishs to make that dont require too much cooking, or preperation. Our Campsites will also have a Grill. Anyone have ideas to help me with my menu?? Thanks so much!! (link)
| |
take hamburgers and vegetables, and season them how you want, then when u want to cook them, just put them in a foil package and put them on the grill. each person can pick and choose what they want in their package. it comes out really yummy. you can put it on the grill, or on the campfire, but not in the actual flames, just like in the hot embers/coals or something. :)

ok so ages ago i thought i would buy a small pack of tampons.My mum knows ive started my period but she probably does not know i got these tampons and she found them.theres only 2 of them. in a tiny box. be cause she thinks i use pads which i do. So what im asking is what if my mum asks me where i got it? erm or something? 17/f (link)
| |
just tell her you bought them. theres no shame in using tampons...more girls prefer them to pads. so dont be ashamed or shy about it. and after all, honesty is the best policy. :)

Ever since cheerleading started back up it's had a new effect on me. I no longer eat three meals, I don't even eat two meals. I do drink lots of fluids though. Most of the time I don't even eat one meal, and if I do eat one meal it's at school because I really don't want my friends to know but yet i'm writing in here telling you all the truth. I do feel bad, But I can't control what's happening to me. I didn't wake up one day and say "Oh i'm going to exercise more and eat less" I never said that, NEVER. This all took place on its own and I wish I knew why but I don't! I think it's a generic trait that got passed onto me from my mom, Because when my mom got out of highschool (18 years old) she was 99lbs and she always told me how she never ate anything so i'm guessing she did have an Eating Disorder. I'm constantly hearing voices in my head, Constantly. That's why i can't sleep at night. That's why I have a hard time concentrating. I lose my train of thought because those voices interupt me. They're all telling me different things but I know they all are talking about the same thing. I've been wearing hoodies and long pants lately, I've been so freezing cold. I don't know why. I rode my bike 10 miles today. It feels great.. I almost passed out on the way home though. My eyes got heavy and my head felt like it was falling. I had a hard time getting up the stairs to my room though my legs couldn't handle it. I feel fine though. On the 5 miles back I cried my eyes out, But I still kept going because I knew it'd be worth it in the end. I knew I would lose a few lbs. I'm the 3rd heaviest flyer on cheerleading and theres about 4-5 flyers who are lighter than me and I want to be one of them. I make up so much excuses just so I can't eat. I've told at least 5 people one of these lines.. "I'm going to have a big dinner when I get home" or "I already ate a ton before I came" You're probably thinking gosh she's a liar. It's not my fault, I can't control this. When I do eat, I feel sick to my stomach and I feel guilty. I don't feel guilty when I don't eat. I currently weigh 97lbs and i'm 5'0 and supposibly i'm already underweight but I really want to weigh 93lbs again. My parents are oblivious to the fact that I hardly eat anything, I'm glad because then they would start making me eat more and more. I have a cold and I hate it.
Am I anorexic? I'm really confused right now! I rate 5's (link)
|
yeah, from what you wrote, you are anorexic. the impulse to exercise all the time and not eat as well as the voice going back and forth telling you to eat, but then that you don't really need to, skipping one more meal wont hurt anything...talk to someone. you are already under weight. the minimum "healthy" weight for a girl whos 5' is 100 lbs. when looking at the other flys you have to ask if they're taller than you and maybe don't have as much muscle mass as you. muscle weighs more than fat.
if you have any more questions or need to talk feel free to visit my column. :)

My boyfriend & I recently french kissed for the first time. I know I'm not one to talk, but he wasn't all that good. I probably wasn't either but for some reason it seemed like his goal was to shove his tongue as far in my mouth as possible. I heard our tongues were supposed to "dance" (well, I read that in an article) but it felt the whole time that mine was kind of stuck there. Any advice? How can I hint to him some new techinique? How can we both get better at it? (link)
| |
lead him. take control. fight back if you have to. lol. he probably doesnt know any better or what he's doing, so hes just doing what he thinks is right. its up to you to discreetly change that, and its not a hard thing to do. :)

ok im in 8th grade but at my sisters school in West Virgnia ( i live in PA) you can go in 7th grade. and this guy asked me to go with him just as friends...and i have a boyfriend.and im going to ask my boyfriend first but i was wondering how to bring it up if u absoulty doesnt want me going im not going to go but i honestly dont think hes gonna care..but i dont know how to ask him?? any ideas?!?! EASY FIVE HERE!!! (link)
| |
just say it as a suggestion to your boyfriend. like hey i was thinking about going to homecoming at my sisters school, and somebody asked me. are you ok with that? make sure you tell him/he knows that your not going to do anything or cheat on him and if your completely honest with him from the start he will be more open to it. :)
|
I'm a freshman and i'm going to homecoming for my school and i'm soooo excited. My friends and i were gonna go dress shoppin n everything together. but like my mom wants me to get a dress at Good will! some girl was makin fun of her friend for gettin a dress at good will! n i wanna go shoppin with them and get a nice dress. but my family is kinda poor. what do i do?
i rate 5's (link)
| |
alot of department stores have alot of sales on dresses. i usually get mine at dillards for like 25-50 dollars, when they are usually 150-200. you still get the high end nice dress, at a good price. :)

I'm 14 years old and my mom will NOT let me get a thong. Almost all of my friends wear them except for me and I think my mom is being unfair by not letting me get one.. What should I do? (link)
| |
go to the mall with your friends and just buy one! just try it, your mom may get mad, but she will get over it. its not like anyone but you will know your wearing it. and just tell her that and explain that its just so there are no panty lines showing when you wear tight pants. :)
