about

I'm a med student, so health related questions I can usually answer pretty well. I also like to think I'm somewhat decent at giving advice. I can also give you an honest opinion.




"I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, or where I'm gonna wind up. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next."





"I believe in colors. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."


advice

In 10th grade, I had just started dating my high school sweetheart. On a school trip, I noticed this other girl who I had heard about but never met. I knew right away that there was something about her that I had never seen before. I put it out of my mind though, being completely infatuated with my girlfriend at the time. Later that year, during the school musical, I got to know the girl from the trip (for clarity's sake, let's call her Jen). We got to know each other pretty well. I had some small feelings for her, but she was dating someone and I was dating someone. We continued to talk throughout high school. Then I graduated and went to college. She's two years younger than me, so she was still in high school. after the first semester of college, my girlfriend broke up with me. The first thing I thought about was Jen and how I could now possibly be with her, but by the time she broke up with her boyfriend, I had a new girlfriend. This has been the cycle ever since. We've grown apart now, but I still think about her all the time. There was only one two month period where both of us were single. She called me and asked me to stop by a mutual friends house to say hi. I did and we sat on the couch together and she would just stare right into my eyes while I was talking and all of her friends were trying to get us alone. I ended up leaving soon, but she texted me for the rest of the night talking about watching the stars and wishing I was there. That was a year and a half ago. After that, we were never that close again. We still say hi occasionally, but nothing meaningful. I'm going to see her soon and I can't get her out of my head. Did she have feelings for me? Was she just overly flirtatious? Was it all in my head? And, most importantly, if it wasn't in my head, could she possibly still feel the same? What should I do? It might sound crazy, but I really feel like I need to take a shot at this. Any advice?

I say definetly take a shot at it. Life's too short to pass up opportunities like this. She definetly could be into you and you'll never really know until you try.

I'm with this girl who I have been trying to get with for a while. She has on occasion mentioned giving head to other guys in the past nonchalantly, which makes me jealous.

I'm usually doing the work in the bed, and she wont ever finish me off/give me head. We've had sex... but I sort of have a fetish with handjobs/blowjobs... why if she likes me as much as she said give me a blowjob, while shes given other guys blowjobs? I mean, I treat her better than anyone else, I shave down there, take care of my hygiene, and have an average penis.

It bothers me a lot to know that I have to work so hard to get so little when others worked so little to get so much. Can someone help me get over this? or fix this? or advice at all?

It makes me feel like i'm not worth so much because she wont put forth the effort to please me anywhere near the level she has other guys.

Believe it or not maybe she wants to wait and not do everything sexually at once because she cares. Maybe she feels like since you've already had sex she has to save something to make the relationship last longer. By initiating that she's given other guys head is maybe a cue to you that she can/will do it eventually. Are you sure you treat her better than anyone else? This could mean anything really your best bet would to just talk to her about it. If you're having sex with her it shouldn't be hard to confront her about it.

what are the pros and cons of a belly button piercing?

Well it looks nice, it's fun to play with (even though you're not suppose to) and yeah it can get infected but that's the same as any other piercing, you just need to take care of it. I've had mine for over 2 years and it hasn't gotten infected once. And it takes awhile to get used to. You need to be careful when getting dressed so you don't get anything stuck on it. But honestly, once you get used to it it's like second nature.

how do i trust my boyfrienda around other grils i really love him and i dont wont to lost him

A relationship without trust isn't going to last very long. You can't learn to trust him, you either do or you don't. If you don't then he's not worth dating.

I'm 14 and a chick.
My friends expect me to be some hard core rock metal fan because I have blue hair and combat boots. Truth is, I'm a die hard Simon & Garfunkel fan, lol. I like old people music. Is this normal?

Sure it's normal, congrats for being unique.

im about to turn 14 years old and enter into high school. i want to enter high school as a "popular" person. but it seems that only really good looking people are popular. I have big eye lashes blonde medium size hair and a flawless face and I'm a cheerleader . but im short and people dont take me serious. and I guessed by being prettier than them I would be more liked. I need tips on how to do my make up like a pretty cheerleader!

Looks don't get you popularity, personality does. Even if looks do get you populariy it will be for all the wrong reasons and those shallow people who like you for your looks will screw you over in the long run. Don't worry so much about your appearence but how you present yourself and get along with people.

How to act and show my boyfriend that I no more care for him

Break up with him?

so my girlfriend, 4th time being my girlfriend. shes cheating on me like its nothing. i think shes using me. im suicidal and would like help. any advice? im 16 and male. shes 15

Dump her with no second thoughts. She's probably the reason why you are suicidal. Honestly, why do you let her use you? You're probably some awesome guy and she's too much of a dumb slut to realize it. You're so young, there are gonna be so many girls out there that will respect you enough not to cheat on you or use you.

he's about as weird as they get. i'm absolutely in love with him though. this guy is in a class of mine at school. he's not nerdy, he just doesn't go out, and doesn't really do anything about his social life, so we never cross paths outside of school aside from the internet where we talk. we've become good friends though and he clicks well with mine. i think he likes me by the way he smiles at me and talks to me differently than with other girls. he flirts with me like crazy and turns red every time we talk. he doesn't talk to many girls though. i try to make it obvious that i like him but boys can be stupid and i don't think he's getting the picture since he's never had a girlfriend or much experience, and i really want him to ask me to hang out. what do i do?

Ask him to hang out. Hint it all you can, he can't be that stupid. If he still doesn't get it, just tell him.

What collage should i go to become a vet

It depends where you live and how far you wanna drive. Try searching collegeboard.com for different schools to find out which have pre-vetinary programs. You can always use google too.

im a 15 yr old guy. get my braces off next week, feb 11th, after having my braces for 3 yrs. should i take pain meds before going to get them off? i have an 1hr and 30min appointment, and how do ur teeth look after? i have an art show only a couple hours after them off and not sure how ill do...

There is no pain in getting them off. Actually, it feels pretty awesome when they're gone. I'm assuming since you've had them on for 3 years your teeth will look great after.

Why do people say i look asian when im not? I'm mexican and i don't see how i look asian. It really pisses me off when someone tells me i look filipino or something and it really lowers my self- esteem. Please helpp.

Why does being filipino or asian lower your self esteem? All the asians I know are gorgeous.

all of the people i care about and love in this world use me and i don't have the gall to tell them off. my boyfriend uses me for sex and ignores me thoughout the week, forgets our plans, doesn't give two shits about me. he was supposed to come over monday but forgot and never called. his way of apologizing for that was poking me on facebook. my friend uses me to get weed. and when not that, cigarettes. besides that, she thinks i'm the dumbest person on this planet and basically backhands me all the time (metaphorically) by insulting me. another friend only hangs out with me when she has something serious going on and needs someone who is willing to listen to hours of bullshit while smoking all of that poor person's cigarettes!!!

I'M SO TIRED OF ALL OF IT. i'm not talking to any of these people right now, but i know i probably will in a few days. i really care about all of these people, deeply. but i won't be taken advantage of anymore. i'm graduating in a few months and i have half the mind to move across the country without telling any of them. i can't believe i've put up with all this for so long. my boyfriend and i have been together for 3 years, known eachother 4. the first friend i've known for 4 years, and my other friend i've known for 13 years. what should i do?

First off, why do you care about people who use you? Dump your boyfriend and get rid of your so called "friends". Maybe they used to be your friends awhile ago, but now they definetly aren't even remotely close to what I would call an aquiantance, let alone a friend. If you really think moving across the country is a good idea for you then I say go with it. Forget all of these selfish people, there's people out there that will treat you right and like you for you.

hey i gotta test coming up really soon, so reply ASAP. thank you! so i just want to know the spanish terms of "is"- esta, estas, estan, estoy, estamos. when do u use them? can someone clarify that? For example you say "you would use esta if the sentence....." blah, blah and for the rest of them. im kinda confused, thank you again.

ESTAR- location, or when something is changing (ex. mood)
For example, if you're sick, its not a characteristic of your personally, you're only sick AT THE MOMENT.
"I am sick"
"Estoy enfermo"

If you wanted to say "I am tall", you wouldn't use estar, you would use the verb ser because its a characteristic of your personally that remains the same. "Soy alto(a)".

Also you have to use estar in the present progressive tense when you're saying "I am walking", you would say "Estoy andando."

Hi I'm a freshman and this guy is a sophomore and we use to hang out a lot like we were really close after summer school started and it was just awkward! I hate awkward moments absultley hate them anyways so he's in my French and we actually talked as friends! So my friends thought. Should ask him to sweethearts so I did. He said I'll let you know later because we were going opposite ways and I said ok... It was yesterday hen I asked and I'm a little shy so it was a huge step for me! I was proud. But now I'm really scared because he hasn't texted or call well last night I got restricted phone call i don't know who it was because I was watching a movie and didn't answer... I'm freaking out in my mind I don't know what to do because if he doesn't respond by Monday it's going to be so awkward... I don't have a clue what to do and I don't want to text him and ask him again like ughh please help! Calm me down aha!

Haha relax relax. I'm sure he'll let you know by monday. If he doesn't you don't want to sound desperate so just don't mention it. Don't make it awkward though, just be super friendly and talk to him just like you did before you asked him. If he really wants to go with you he'll approach you about it. If the restricted phone call was him, he would have left a message or something or call back. It's only been a day though so give it some more time.

Ever since 8th grade I have struggled with having and keeping friends. I'm a senior in high school now and I'm still having trouble. People seem to be very jealous of me. I get told constantly "I never thought you'd be this nice, because you're so pretty and I though you were stuck up" or with my friends it's "well I mean I'd invite you to the party, but then all the guys would be all over you." or "everytine I introduce you to a guy, they always end up liking you, so I'm not
inviting you."

I'm so upset about this. I've been crying about this for the past week, because I'm down to 2 friends. I know it sounds silly to cry abou being pretty, but it's not fair, why are
people judging me like this. I never go after guys they like, I'm kind of shy so i hardly talk to guys.

Now, my last two friends are even starting to abandon me. The one is hanging out with this girl, because she said "now she's the pretty one." and she gets all the guys attention. My other friend refuses to eat around me, because she wants my body. And she has begun hanging out with these heavier girls.

I just don't know what to do. I only have 3 months of school
left, and I dont think I can make it any longer. I've asked
my mom if i can just take online classes to finish the year. I'm just so depressed about this. My best friend has been my best friend since 8th grade and she has alwYs been insecure. She had a severe eating disorder last yea that she almos died from.

What should I do?

This probably isn't what you want to hear but your friends are really shallow and all about themselves. Find friends that accept you for who you are and won't care if they're not the "prettier" one or the "skinnier" one. That's so low.

I don't think it is okay for my girlfriend to shake her booty in front of other men for money at the club? I think it is disrespectful and degrading. Am I wrong?

I agree with you that it is disrespectful and degrading but you can't make her decisions for her. Have you tried talking to her about it? Maybe you can try suggesting other jobs that will fit her better.

Can you get STD's from kissing?

Technically yes you can get herpes (cold sores) if the person you're kissing has a breakout (cold sore) at the time. If you're talking about things like chlamydia or gonorrhea then no, unless there is some kind of oral-genitalia or genitalia-genitalia contact.

[view]


is it normal for a guy to stop himself from having sex and instead tell you he wants you the right way, not a one night stand? Its not like he stopped kissing me and my body, and we wound up having the best sex a few weeks later....
so what is the right way for a guy? I thought all guys thought the same...sex is sex.

It's not normal, but its definetly a good sign. It's basically saying he wants to have sex with you but he respects you wants to be more than just a one-night stand.
