Played volleyball for over 10 years, also a coach. I love to try new things. Currently I'm trying the new sport of tennis and learning about my passion of photography.
advice
So when I go to college on the 24th, my bf was planning on coming down to help out with the move in and help me set up my internet considering I can't deal with that techy stuff haha. So my dad was said I need to find someone who can help me with that, and I said oh (bf name)is really techy he's going to help me. And my dad immediately said NO. he refuses to let him come down to help me move in. And I'm stuck on what to do. I ask why and he says its bc he made the decision that's no. I don't know how to even begin to tell my bf, and it breaks my heart that my dad is controlling who is there for me on move in day. But he's so adamant about it. What would you do? What should I do? I'm so pissed at him and its just ridiculous. He tells me he plans on making at least 3 surprise visits a year and he "will" find out if my bf comes to visit and he's not picking me up for me to see my friends. Its because he doesn't want me to have "any distractions" but he's the biggest control freak. I try to talk to him about it but we just fight; even if the convo starts civilly it never ends well.help? Sorry this is so long. For extra info: my bf and I have been dating for almost 7 months and are pretty serious. And I'm almost 19f. He's the same age and going to college too but commuting. My college is about 1 hour away from my family and his.
hey so i'm going to college too. I kind understand where your dad is coming from. Most parents are very clingy when its time for their child to move out and start their own life. My parents aren't as clingy as yours, thank god haha. But they're slowly realizing that I need to be on my own. Your dad hasn't realized that yet and you need to make him know that.
There are some things that I'd understand.. like having your dad come visit you once in a while. But honestly.. having him tell you that your boyfriend can't help you move in... thats not a good thing. Unless you want this to continue on.. you need to break the news to your dad and just say that you're an adult and you need to make decisions for yourself. Otherwise, how are you supposed to learn new things and have new experiences?
I guess there's not much you can do besides bitch at your dad for it and tell him you're an adult and can make your own decisions, especially minuscule ones like having your boyfriend help you with something.
Oh and 1 more thing- think about what you're going to say before you say it. You don't want to say something you'll regret. And always remember- your dad loves you. he's doing what he thinks is best for you and he obviously cares about you. There are some people out there whose parents literally shove them out of the house and never see or speak to them again. Be grateful that you have a parent who cares about you.. Don't be too harsh on him, but make him realize that you're growing up and its time for him to let go.
I'm 16 and next week I'll be back in school ;//
I'd like to know..how many of you graduates from high school..got THREW high school? How was it for you?.. I'm shy and I'm a self concious person.
I get nervous before every new year, ;// This will be my Sophmore year so I have a couple more years left.
My boyfriend done with school and so is my brother.. I wish I was.
I'm also nervous because I'm not good in math..and I'm taking an advanced English class..and I don't want to be surrounded by "know it all people"..all my classes last year (but 3) I had no one to talk to ..so ;//
Anyone know what I mean? Please give me some tips!
Thanks!
ohh gosh.. high school. yuck. For some people its the best years of their life. Mine.. not so great. Lets just say I felt invisible almost every day. I was in the same boat as you. Couldn't wait to get the hell out of there haha. I'm actually moving into college next week and I guess you could say I'm nervous. I think everyone gets nervous or at least anxious before a new school year. Its normal :) It just means you're ready.
Don't worry about classes or making friends. It just adds extra stress and pressure on you. My best advice for you is just take it easy. I can't explain enough how stressed I was during high school. But to be honest, it could have been SOOO much easier. I was way too hard on myself. I'd push myself to do better in school, even though I had a 3.75 GPA.. I pushed myself to make more friends and get popular (even though I only had 1 best friend). I pushed myself to wake up earlier every morning and look my absolute best. It was tough. Some days i'd be so exhausted that I would literally wake up, throw on sweats, get out the door. I felt comfy and ok but as soon as I walked through the doors I felt sloppy and had low self esteem.
So yes.. high school was tough for me. And i'm sure it will be tough for you. But guess what? I made it. And so will you. I've never heard of anyone dying because they couldn't handle high school haha. But I have a big piece of advice for you.. live it. Live high school. Take it easy. Don't stress out over stupid things like cliques or who to sit by at lunch. Things like that will just happen naturally. Most importantly.. live in the moment. I was always living in the past or future. Worrying about past mistakes like my Calc test I failed. Or the future like that speech I had to give in english a few days later. But now that I look back at it... I kind of miss it. I regret a few things. If I could go back, I would definitely appreciate high school more and live in the moment. So many days I would think to myself "ok just get through the next few days and then its the weekend". But literally during graduation, as I was looking at all my classmates, I thought to myself.. where the hell did time go?? I got so caught up over useless things and never really appreciated high school. I'm going to miss those pep rallys before our football games, I'm going to miss my principal saying hi to me in the hallways. I won't miss the homework or the lame high school rules.. but you shouldn't look at the negative stuff otherwise you'll never appreciate the good things.
I'll leave you with 1 last thought.. what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Yes high school was tough for me. But I survived. I learned from my mistakes and I learned more about myself. It has made me a stronger person and now I can't wait to go to college and do it all over again haha.
Just remember- live in the moment and appreciate it.. because before you know it, you'll be sitting in that graduation chair with your cap and gown thinking "where the hell did time go?". Time really does go by fast. You don't have much time, so make the most of it. Live everyday as if it were you last. No regrets and appreciate the time you have left as a high schooler.
Good luck and inbox me if you have any more questions or thoughts! :)
PS: I was shy and self conscious like you. I didn't have many friends. but now I'm realizing that I regret that. I wish I could have been more outgoing and experience new things. Just be yourself and things will happen naturally. Don't be afraid to speak up and have fun :)
i usually wear pads but im going swimming with my friends in 6 days but my period last 9 days and ive only been on it for 1 day and so i was wondering if i swim with a tampon in if i will still bleed
yes you can swim and pretty much do anything with tampons. The only thing is you have to remember to change it after 4-6 hours otherwise you'll get TSS which is dangerous. Once you try it, you'll get used to it and it's soo much better than pads!
So...I thought I had his gift under control. The main present was going to be a t-shirt he loves and really wants, a mixtape, and socks with funny sayings on them...but...I got an email from the website where I ordered the t-shirt, and turns out it's going to take quite a while to get here.
Since that won't be here in time for his birthday, what else can I get him?
I want something personal and unique, but also something that's at a reasonable price (I'm 16 years old, and quite strapped for cash).
I need ideas...his birthday is just next week, and I'm the kind of person who likes to have it wrapped and ready to go a few days before!
Thanks :)
For my boyfriend, i got him a photo album and put pictures of us in it. He absolutely loves it because whenever we aren't together, he will look through it and it makes him happy. I also made him a "best boyfriend" award. I typed it up really nicely, printed it on a high quality paper, then used an old soccer medal and put some construction paper over that and wrote "best boyfriend" medal. You could also make a trophy or something out of paper mache. Its really cute haha and affordable.
Another cute thing to do is make a "memory jar". Which is pretty self explanitory. You take a big jar and fill it with little papers with a memory on it. For example- August 8th. The first day we kissed. March 10- we went to a concert together..
Or you could do something similar to the memory jar but instead fill it with reasons why you love him.
Another thing that is a good idea is to find a cute picture of you 2 and find an artist and have them draw that picture. I'm not sure exactly where but just do a little searching and there are people out there who will draw from a picture. Or you could send in a picture of you 2 and have them draw a caricature of you 2. Its cute and fun!
If you don't like any of those ideas, doing little things always works like baking him a cake, cookies etc. Buying him a giftcard to his favorite place. Surprising him by taking him out to dinner. Stargazing. Having a picnic. Walking on the beach. Those things always add a great touch to a celebration!
i started my senior dance solo and i don't like it at all. i can't connect to the music and the dance is just weird. the song i'm dancing to is "roses" by meg and dia. i want to change my song to "it doesn't hurt" i think by katie thompson? i dont know. but the thing is i'm already a minute through the solo. i'm scared to ask my dance teacher to change the song and dance. i would pay more to change it but i'm nervous about her reaction. what should i do?
it doesn't hurt to try and ask. What if she says yes?
Be honest with her and say you're not connecting to the music. I'm not a dancer but I have friends that are dancers and they always say they dance the best when they feel the music and dance from their heart. Well you can't really do that if you don't like the song. So talk to your teacher and say you want to dance your absolute best and you feel like you won't be able to if you dance to that song. And it would mean a lot to you if you could switch songs. Tell her you're committed to making the other song work and you'll do whatever it takes.
brain tumor-i have been with my boyfriend for almost a year, we are close as can be and the perfect oppasites attract, oppasites in absolutly everything but we have the best time ever together bein stupid n playful our smiles just dont disappear. but his family has forbidded me to see him for two weeks so far. He was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor and they say he wont live past 40 and no clue when he may die..he acts just the same as always, all into sports and happy. the news crushed me though, i was in depression before it but now life just seems halted. i lost my aunt and baby cousin this summer too i just cant accept the chance of loosing him he is my absolute everything. i need help handling this for either of us? what to do to be in his arms again cause hes banned from me? i dont wana leave his side but i cant even be by his side, what do i do for or about anything im just lost? i can just curse at the sky and cry for days
Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry to hear this :( These kinds of news are never easy to handle.. but hey, we/I am here for you and I want to help. I've never lost anyone close to me before, but I've dealt with some issues in my life that I thought would be the end of the world for me. Nobody said life would be easy.. they just said it would be worth it. I'm not sure how old you are, but people tend to think that the world will end when something bad happens. For example- when I lied to my parents and they caught me and punished me for a long time, I thought the world was ending and I was so negative all the time. But what you need to realize is that life goes on. You can't stop life in its tracks. It will always be moving no matter what happens. Another thing you need to realize is that you need to take it 1 step at a time. I know its tough. One of my issues is that I tend to get overwhelmed when I look at ALL of my problems. But i'm learning to take it 1 step at a time. Conquer 1 problem at a time and eventually over time all of the problems will be gone. You can't solve everything over night. It will take time, patience, and effort.
Another thing you can do is let him know you're there for him no matter what. One time i was hospitalized. My friends came to visit me and got me gifts like flowers, teddy bears, get well cards. None of those things made me feel better.. the only thing that made me feel better was when my boyfriend held my hand and said he would always love me and always be there for me. Try doing that for your boyfriend. yes it is nice to get him some gifts, but most importantly just let him know how much he means to you.
It even harder that you can't be by his side. But you know what? Life is a giant obstacle course. Its a test to see how much you can handle. don't let 1 problem get in your way of figuring life out. Not being there by him physically is a little problem, but it shouldn't stop you from letting him know you're always there for him.
I'll leave you with 1 last thought. Life is tough. But its not about WHAT happened.... its about HOW you dealt with the situation. So instead of sitting there feeling all sorry.. stand up and take it 1 step at a time. Hold your head high, be brave, and know that any obstacle thrown at you is a test to see how much you can handle. Whenever I have a problem, I always tell myself this- "I am fearless. I am strong. I am courageous. I can overcome any obstacle in life. What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger"
Again, I'm so sorry to hear about this. I will pray for him to get better and for you too.
Edit** To cherish it.. there's not much you can do besides realize that everything happens for a reason and know that its life. You can't always control everything, and sometimes you just need to accept the fact and learn from it. Cherish him and the time you have with him, because one day it could be over, and you'll want to look back with happiness and no regrets. Embrace it.
I'm 13 and I'm a female.I have a 17 year old emo friend named Connor.We used to talk everyday.I knew everything about him,even stuff his parents didn't know,because he told me.We were bestfriends.But then he suddenly stopped talking to me.I found out that the day he stopped talking to me,he got a girlfriend.Before that when we talked,he was single.I really like him.I'm tempted to tell him my feelings,and then tell him to never talk to me again.Only because I was there for him,and she was his friend before,but was never there for him.So he chooses her over his bestfriend to care about..Should I do that?And why did he do that to me?
“It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.”
Tell him how you feel, otherwise you might regret being a coward and being too scared to say something. I'd rather be labeled a courageous risk taker, than a scared coward living in fear.
I don't think this guy knows what he's got.. He obviously doesn't appreciate you, which is wrong. I dont think he's a true friend. True friends stay together no matter what. And if he suddenly stops talking to his best friend because he found another girl, well that just shows immaturity and lack of respect for you. You should tell him how you feel and then stop talking to him. Get your feelings out of your system and force him to make a move. The ball is in your court right now. you have to make a move. Once you tell him how you feel, the ball is in his court and he has to do something about it.
Best option- just move on. He might regret this and then will come crawling back to you trying to get you to forgive him.

Me and my boyfriend will be celebrating our 10 month anniversary on the 6th of this month. He always takes me out and this time, he told me its my turn to surprise him! what can i do, or where can i take him that will be romantic, and will actually interest him? Help please!!
its always the little things that count the most. For example, a guy could buy me a yacht and then take me to the carribbean and spend a million dollars on a house and then buy me a porche. But that doesn't really make me happy.. I'd much rather have him do little things like pick me up and take me to a nice dinner, treat me like a gentleman, buy me flowers and hold my hand the entire night, kiss me under the stars and what not. Those are the things that matter the most to me, and those are the things that should matter the most to you 2. I know your anniversary is probably over because today is the 7th. But keep this in mind for another time. You dont need to go over the top, most cases its just stressful anyways. Do the little things. Some examples are- taking a midnight stroll under the stars and stargazing, watching the sunset, having a picnic, making him a scrapbook, telling him you love him every chance you get, baking him a cake or making him dinner, going out dancing, etc.
Another really good idea is to take him someplace that you've never showed anyone before. I'm not sure if you have a place, but I have a secret special place that only I know about. its one of my favorite places to go and just sit and think. If you have a personal thing like that, try taking him there and letting him know he's the first one to be there besides you.
good luck and I hope you had a wonderful anniversary!
I was with this guy for 1 year and 8 months, no details.. all you really have to know is that we were best friends/lovers/brothers/sisters/ basically everything to the other person.he ruined it completely, he was confused , wanted his freedom, and basically threw me out of his life, i wouldnt leave him alone until one day i jus did, i didnt contact him for a month, and he came back saying he regrets it, and hes sorry and i told him i dont trust him, and i dont know who he is anymore, and all that.. but i said maybe i can try and trust you, and hes been working hard to gain my trust and now we always talk, he totally broke my heart, i felt like there was no reason to live after the break up, it was horrible, and idont know if me giving him another chance is right, my mind tells me everyone deserves a second change, and my heart tells me hes just gonna break it again, i dont know what to do, should i give it a try? or should i stop talking to him and tell him things will never be the same? alot of things happend between us, he lost my trust ALOT, im not just telling him this, i litteraly DO NOT trust him what so ever, maybe ill trust him again? should i give it a shot or would that be stupid going back to someone who hurt me? i dont know what to do, my heads all over the place, im a mess.. i cant be with him or without him, im so inlove with him not much people will understand it.. thats my FIRST question.. my second question is, i need tips to get over my jealousy issue completely, yes it sounds retarded hes never really been close to friends that are girls uptil we broke up, which was a huge mistake because its normal to be friends with the opposite gender, and if i want this to work i have to have to have to get over it and i dont know how, whenever i hear him calling his friend cool or "were so close" i get all jealous and pissed off and i KNOW its wrong, i just dont know how to get over this. Sorry if this was long.
“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”
That pretty much sums it up. What is life without taking risks and chances? Life would be completely boring and useless if nobody took risks. You know whats surprising? You learn more about yourself when you take risks and try new things. You never know what you're capable of doing unless you try. In this case, you never know how its going to turn out unless you try. One more thing, “It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.” Meaning= I'd rather take the risk and get hurt one more time, than to be a coward and always wonder "what if".
As for the jealousy issue.. I have the same problem so I don't know if I can be much help haha. I think everyone gets jealous eventually. We are human and its normal to feel that way. I guess it just comes with trust. I understand you don't trust him at the moment, but if you give him a chance, maybe you'll trust him again and then that jealousy issue will go away. A trick that kind of helped me was thinking "if he can talk to other girls, then I can talk to other guys". It made me realize that I dont have to feel this way. My feelings and reactions are in my power. I control how I feel.. not him. I don't want a guy to make me jealous, so instead of him controlling that, I decide to control my own feelings and push that jealousy away. Its hard but you really need to be patient with this issue. It wont go away over night. It takes time, trust, and effort.
Good luck and inbox me if you have more questions!
Ok so I'm 16 and my boyfriend is older. He is absolutely amazing, but I just feel like I can't compare to him. He always sends me cute things in texts messages and stuff, and I need to do that for him. But I just can't think of anything!! We are in a long distance relationship so things are hard enough. I don't wanna make them harder. So please help!! Thanks, anything will be greatly appreciated :)!!!
Texting isn't rocket science. Normally whenever you have a thought and want to tell someone, you text them. So if you are thinking about him or something, shoot him a text and let him know! just be like "i'm thinking about you!" or "i miss you!". Let him know how you feel about him.
Also, long distance relationships are never easy. But you can try some things like sending him letters in the mail, like a love letter with 100 reasons why you love him. Or you can go on a floral website and pick out some flowers or a fruit basket and send it to his house. Or you could even buy him something where you live, and then send it to his place by United States Postal Service, UPS, or FedEx.
Its always the little things that count the most :)

alright this guy asked me on a date and originally i said yes. because i really liked this guy, but then i reconsidered it because i had just broken up with someone. i told the guy i couldnt go. He's basically me just the guy version and i have liked him on and off. The only problem is i think he has social issues, for example he cant look you straight in the eyes and talk and he has a stutter.. maybe hes just nervous but sometimes it can be really awkward around him. Im not totally sure if i like him again, but hes always on my mind! but everytime i think of something good about him, i think about something that could go wrong. what happens if we go out and got nothing to talk about! or if i change my mind and i dont like him!i dont want people thinking im a slut. Hes invited me to his party next week.. what do i do????
You know those corny cliches "Don't judge a book by its cover" and "Treat people how you want to be treated"... well apply that to your situation. You probably don't know this guy very well. I mean, you know some details.. but you don't know the true him unless you give him a chance.
I say go to the party, have fun, and get to know him. You don't have to be in a relationship right away... Just tell him you'd like to get to know him some more before you move too fast. Hang out and go on a few dates. Talk to him and find out the true him.
Also, just because he has social problems does not mean he is a retard or incapable of dating someone. That is a very judgmental thing to say... I know PLENTY of people who have a social or psychological disorder,and they are one of the nicest and best people i've ever met. They made me realize what life is about and they have made a huge impact on my life. Don't judge him just because he has a little social problem. That is not right. What if he did the same to you? What if he thinks- Oh she has a problem speaking in front of a large crowd.. i dont know if I like her anymore. You wouldn't feel too great if he judged you like that.. would you? So dont do that to him.
1 more thing. Don't lead him on. I've made so many mistakes of leading guys on and it never turns out good. If you're unsure if you like him or not, then stay friends with him until you know you like him. Once you realize that you want to be with him, THEN go out with him. but just don't lead him on. You wouldn't like it if a guy leaded you on, so don't do that to others.
How to begin an essay about myself? With A Qoute?
Write down everything you're feeling and your thoughts. Maybe include something that describes how you're human and still learning about life and yourself. Life is an open book and you're holding the pen. You get to decide what your story is, and the future is just an open blank page that is waiting to be filled with brilliant things. Be creative and most importantly just speak from your heart. Write in a way that makes other people understand how you're feeling from your perspective in life.
When a guy says we can have quiet time together what does it mean what he suggest
quiet time has a lot of different explanations. We can give you some suggestions or ideas, but the only way to really know what he means is to ask him.
quiet time could mean just being with each other alone and spending time with each other. It could mean something special like having intimacy. It could mean that he just wants a companion to be around quietly. Most likely, he just wants to be with you.
if u Like A Boy And he Has A Girlfriend But His Girlfriend is One Of Your Friends i Really Like This Guy And We Have Been Talking And he Make Me Feel Special But Now i Feel Like Im quility And I Love Him But .... i Strat Choosen Like I Dont Want Him Than I Do . What Should i Do ??
You should back off. Its never a good idea to take your friends mate. All it does is cause drama, stress, and more problems. You don't want that, do you? No. Trust me because I've had experience. I liked a guy who my best friend liked. HIm and I talked and hooked up. When she found out, all hell broke loose and it was very complicated, frustrating, and stressful.
Its WAYY easier if you just back off and stay out of the situation. Its not worth being with him if you have to be troubled by the drama.
Oh and you should realize something.. he has a girlfriend. Put yourself in your friend's shoes. What if you and him were dating, and he found another girl he liked. Wouldn't you feel hurt and sad?? Thats how your friend is feeling.. don't put her through that because i'm pretty sure nobody wants to feel that way.
Also, if he's talking to you behind his girlfriends back, What makes you think he wouldn't talk to other girls behind your back if you dated him?
Currently my girlfriend is living 2 1/2 hours away from me. We see each other about once a month because of our schedules. She gets upset if I text her she says I think she is supposed to text me every minute of the day when shes off work or on breaks at work. It's not true but I never know whats going on in her life like how her son is hows work going and she gets upset because I say we don't talk. Any suggestions?
Her actions are clearly saying that she doesn't want to talk to you. Looking from a woman's perspective, whenever someone continually talks to us, it gets annoying and we push them away. This is what she's doing. She doesn't want to talk to you or let you in her life.
If you really want to solve the problem, my best advice is for YOU to drive 2.5 hours to her place and talk to her about it face to face. Texting never solves anything. Thats how misunderstandings happen and you can never express any emotions. When you talk to someone about something serious like this, you have to talk to them about it face to face. If you decide to visit her and she still pushes you away, maybe you should give her some space and time. Instead of you always trying to fix the problem, try letting her come to you when she's ready. Who knows... maybe she will regret letting you go and it will teach her a lesson.
I understand if you have co workers on your facebook but when my gf who works at a retail store has a bunch of girls on there and she will comment on there statuses or what not but wont say anything on mine or act like she has a gf on there. One made a comment to my gf's status about it being hot the girl said id say so... well I got upset and shes like she didnt mean anything about it its always hot in there. What should I do?
well relationships are all about trust. It seems like you don't really trust her.. maybe you should work on that.
If she says it doesn't mean anything, then it probably doesn't mean anything. The same thing kind of happened to me. My boyfriend was facebook friends with one of his exes and I freaked out. Turns out they haven't spoken in 2 years. Facebook isn't really that big of a deal. For some, its just a way of communication. For others, its just a small part of their life.
Try talking to her again and make her understand how you feel.
I cant go outside, itss too hot and I cant go to the gym
run up and down the stairs a bunch of times. If you can, try skipping a step because that helps your leg muscles. You can do sit ups and push ups. I always do a few during commercial breaks during my favorite tv shows. If you have a large open area, like a basement or garage, get a jump rope and do that for 10 minutes. If you have a long space, do some sprints back and forth. Time yourself and try to beat that score each time you do it. If you have a stationary bike, you can bike in place for however long you want.
I finally had alone time with the guy that is so sweet to me and just amazing to me. We had a ton of fun, and for some reason I always look at the stupid little flaws and they make me think and then I feel so freaking stupid. I mean I don't like chest hair, and that bothered me and I don't get why I do that because he is cute and has the perfect smile and perfect career, yet that little feature bugs me and I need help and a new mind set, someone help me. ):
pretty much what the other advicenator said.. everyone has flaws and you just have to learn how to deal with them.
but i have 1 more thing to add. Sometimes if you deal with their flaws, you'll eventually love them. My boyfriend has a really funny sneeze. When I first met him, I thought it was such a huge turn off haha and I just hated it, the sound, the way he covered his sneeze, ugh it just disgusted me. but after dating him for a year, I soon realized that now I love his adorable little sneeze :) You want to know why? because its HIS sneeze. Nobody I know sneezes like that and it makes me happy because I found something unique about him and i've learned to love it.
So just deal with the flaws and eventually you'll learn to love them and appreciate them :)
Nothing is perfect. Beauty is not perfection. Beauty is looking past the imperfections.
my boy friend always want to see the colour of my pant every time we are together, even when his friends are around he hides at my back and pep at it. please what those this mean can any body help?
it means he likes you and wants to get some action
if you're uncomfortable with it, tell him.
i'm a dancer and was stretching one evening while doing the stretch on your back with one leg on ground and the other going towards your head. while doing the stretch i must have pulled it cause there was like 3 "popping" noises. i did this injury in the beginning of january and my hamstring still hurts. it was a lot worse before to the point where i couldn't get my leg 90 degrees but now its getting better. but i still can't do my right split cause there's still a pain in it. it's more right under the buttcheek. i asked my mom to take me to a doctor for it but she refuses. i tried icing and heating all these months but it still isn't better. it's not like i can rest it completely either cause i have dance 2-3 days a week for 4 hours. i stretch it gently but nothing works. any advice? :\
uhhhh yeah any kind of "popping" nose is not normal and should be taken seriously.
i don't think resting or icing will do anything. it might take the pain away a little, but it for sure won't solve the problem and make the injury go away.
The only way to get rid of the injury is to go to the doctor and see what exactly is wrong. You can't fix something if you don't know what the problem is.
If your mom won't take you to the doctor, find someone who will. honestly, I dont see what the big deal is. If she's not comfortable with doctors, ask to go to a chiropractor or kinesiologist.
Do you have an athletic trainer in your school that you could go to? or how about a school nurse? maybe ask other people like your dad, siblings, other family, neighbors etc.
if all fails.. just get sick with the flu or something haha and that way your mom will have to take you to the doctor.
Oh and in case you didn't already know.. if you're a minor (under 18) your mother has to take good care of you, meaning she has to take you to the doctor if you're ill, otherwise its child neglection and child services could find out and your mom would get in big trouble.
