advice
well i was in gym one time and i fell off of the rope i was climbing. i hurt my arm really bad and my gym teacher told me to stretch it out. he didnt let me go to a nurse. when i got home i went to the emergency room because it hurt really bad. they x rayed it and turns out i fractured it. what should i do about my teacher?
Have your mother call the school and have her talk to the principle about the situation and that injurys should be taken more seriously. Hopefuly he will talk to your teacher. Having you complain to your teacher will do nothing except make you look bad.
how far do ya'll think is the best to go in a relationship of 5 months.
We can't answer that question for you, only you can. Only do what you are comfortable with. If something feels wrong, and you are not sure about it, don't do it. Personally I think you are both too young for sex.
Okay I put poems on here....and you guys said be careful putting them on here or someone will steal them...how do I make it so no one can steal them??
Here is a cheap way to copywrite something. Put it in an evelope and mail it to yourself. There will be a post mark date on the envelope. Never open it. If you ever have to go to court to prove something was yours, here is your proof. A document dated by the goverment. It's not 100% fool proof, but it still a good action.
hello, i am a 23 year old female. i have been in a relationship with my boyfriend for six and a half years. we have had our share of problems, but nothing really bad. i think that our biggest problem is communication. whenever we are involved in a heated discussion, i start crying and he gets mad. i'm a very emotional person and i can't help it. i tell him this all the time. however, sometimes he yells at me and says mean things to me. i have told him that he can't talk to me any kind of way. he never says disrespectful things, but i still feel disrespected by the way he says things. i think that this is something that we can work out if we could communicate better with each other. if i start to cry he gets angry and doesn't want to talk anymore. we recently had an argument, i got really upset and told him that i didn't want to be with him anymore. i didn't mean it and i would like to talk to him about it, but i'm afraid that if i call him, he might make me feel like he doesn't care or doesn't want to talk about it. he has been a major part of my life. he has been there for me through so much. i love him and i know that he love me. what should i do? a part of me feels like if i give it too much time he might not want to be with me. another part of me feels that he needs time to see what he is missing. i'm so confused about what to do.
You have been together for over six years. If you haven't learned to communicate with eachother by now, you never will. After this long you should know if this is the man you to want to spend the rest of your life with. Is this what you want for your future? If your not sure, then it's time to move on because things are not going to change.
It sounds like you have only been in one real long term relationship. This may be a good time to see what else is out there. Because if you ever marry this guy, I don't think you will be completly happy.
okay..well me and my boyfriend have been going out for almost 9 months now..and hes had a lot happen in his life lately (parents divorce and stuff)..but hes been takin' it out on me..and he'll promise me something and then break it saying he cant bc hes too upset..but he only says it when he doesnt feel like hanging out..and it really upsets me bc he lies a lot..should i break up with him or what?? i need HELP!
It depends what you are looking for in this relationship. If it was never too serious and you don't know where the relationship is headed, maybe it would be a good time to take a break so he can figure out some things in his life. Becuase currently it doesn't look like he has the ability to be a partner in a relationship.
If it is serious, and you see a future with this guy, then stick out this rough patch with him and be supportive. But for now don't expect too much in return.
hey i'm 13(14 in oct) and i have really big boobs. im not like the biggest in my class or w/e but i'm a 36C and still growing. all my friend make fun of my boobs cause they say they r always popping out of my shirt and stuff. i dont try and do it it just happens and i dont have that much money to buy new bras. bras are expensive now. i also cant get good support cus my boobs are always sore from bouncing around and i try to keep my bra tight so they wont. i dunno wut to do. i dont want to grow anymore but i kno i cant stop it. help me plz! i'm tired of ppl throwin stuff dowm my shirt because they think it's fun.
Talk to your mother about your problem, and explaine to her that you must get some better support. Bras are a necessity, if you need them, your mother should be buying them. Make sure to get fitted by a sales person at the store, because it does't sound like you are wearing the correct size if you are sore and unsupported. And you can get some good deals if you look. I just got 5 bras for $80 at Victoria Secret. Thats less then $20 a piece!
And don't worry about people thinking that you are easy. It is your personality that will determin that, not your bust size.
Well what if hes there sometimes like if hes gone all the time then comes back when i tell him that i miss him and hes never there no more. He hangs out with me for a while and takes me my kid out shoppin to dinner and stuff liek that then after a week or somthing of doing that hell go back to how he was. And hes always saying hes a bad father for never being there
It's time for him to grow up and be a father (full time)! If he can't make that comitment to you and your son then he doesn't deserve you. Don't wait around for this guy hoping he may change one day. If he really cared and wanted to be a part of you and your sons life, then he would be there. But he sounds to selfish give you and your son the time you deserve. It sounds like he has a lot of growing up to do.
my mom never spends time with me i ask every day to but she always says she's to busy but she's not i have talded to her before but she just said so what do i do
Tell your mother how lucky she is to have a child that actually wants to spend time with her, and that should take advantage while she can. Remind her that if she loves you, she should make time for you, because you are her life. I hope your mother will find the time for you.
i really want to go to canada. i want to just drop everything and go there. live my life in a cabin in the middle of the wilderness on a small lake and use a busch plane to get to town when i need to. i could drop eveything in my life and go and not have any regrets. except one. i have a girlfriend and i LOVE her a lot. i really do. im 16 and i could leave both my parents and everything else with out regrets except her. i feel like i have found true love. but on the other hand i feel like im 16 and dont know shit about love and live. i dont care how old you are, i just want to know what you think of my situation.
Seeing that your only 16 how do you plan on moving to Canada, buying a cabin and a busch plane, and supporting yourself. If you really want those things, you can make them happen. But you need to grow up first. Your only 16! Finish school. When your old enough to do these things, hopfuly the women you love will do it with you. Don't be so anxious to grow up.
I am 5'6 n i weigh 130 pds! er i want to be the "perfect" 100 by the summer days so i look cute in my bathing suit! All my friends wear 1's n im in 2/3's ya so what should i do to get to the perfect 100 HELP ME!! I want to look cute in a bathing suit!!!
Instead of trying to loose weight (which you do not need to do) focus on toning your body. A well shaped body is much sexier then a sickly toothpick.
Hey my name is Kelly and i have a boy friend that isnt really there all the time hes always out with his friends and this girl named chris. But he says chris has a boy friend but i dont know if i shopuld beleive him or not because hes always hangin on her a nd stuff. I have cried sometimes because hes never there for our kid and on my sons b day he wasnt even there. Should i dump him? he has proposed to me but i dont know what to do know more. Hes real sweet and everything but he just doesnt spend any time with me no more. Please help!
Don't mary a man just because he is the father of your child. It doesn't sound like he is there for either of you. If he really loved you and his son, he would be home with you, helping take of your child. Do you see things changing after you get married, if you get married? Unless he is ready to take on the responsibility of having a family, I'd say it is time for you to move on.
My and my boyfriend have been dating for almost 15 months and we have come close to have sex sooo many times... the only thing stopping us is that he doesnt have condoms. We both know that if he did, that we would probably end up doing something if we had the chance, but we are also both worried about pregnancy! Thats why we are hesitant about buying condoms.
I am 16 and he is 17.
What should i do?
If you are not 100% sure about having sex, then you shouldn't do it. Yes you are still young, and what would you do if you happened to become pregnat? You should continue to wait.
I am 18 years of age. My family and I have dreamed of moving to another country for 12 years. We finally have the opportunity to do so and we have taken it. However, my sister now has a boyfriend and is threatening to stay behind. She wants to marry him as soon as possible. She is 16 years old. This boy is 19, has quit school, has been unemployed for most of the last 3 years as he is continually fired, and is known to lie frequently. How can i make her see that she is too young for this and that he is not worth giving up her family and her future for?
Your sister is only 16, she is still a child. So unfortunatly she is going to have to leave with the family, no matter what her heart is telling her. Ask her if she were to get married tommarow, how her and her husband plan to support themselves. She is still in school, and he is unemployed and without a diploma. Does she plan on living in poverty with this man, because that is what would happen. Ask her what she wants out of a marrige, and what she sees for their future, and how do they plan to reach that goal? Maybe if can help her see what happens after a wedding, she may have different feelings. Remind her she is still young, and has a lot for self discovery yet, and this move is acturally a wonderful opportunity to grow and mature.
I got pushed off this hill of woodchips n landed right on my back... I didn't notice at the time but i broke 2 of my ribs... Yes it hurt extremely bad but I wanted to be tough n finished school the rest of the day and actually attended basketball n played it. The physical trainer at my school made me lay on the gym floor and do streches to strech it out.She wouldn't listen to me because i told her i couldn't do that. She told me i had to do 100 times of the streches n now i suffer pain from that. Is there anyway to fix it? I went to the chiropractor. But that didn't work! HELP!!
How do you know you have broken your ribs, have you been x-rayed? You need to take better care of your body! If you have an injury, you need to get the nessacary help. Go to a docotor (not a chiropractor) and get yourself checked out. Contiuing to be active with a broken rib could be quite dangerous.
Whut do u do when someone u really lykes tells u he lyks u but then gos behind ur back n tells otha ppl that he doesnt lyk u.. and other ppl r telling u thats hes playing u.. whut do i do?!
What you do is forget about him. He isn't worth your time.
ok i am in love im sure of it i can imagine getting married to this kid and stuff. but he completely screwed me over. we were going out for a month... i gave up everything for him too like my friends, family, the first guy to give a shit about me, and even skool a little... and then he moved in w/ a friend to go to this skool that would give him a chance. i was happy for him and he made me feel confident that things wouldnt change to much. but well... they did.. a lot. i proly talked to him 2 in 3 months after he moved and i heard all this shit about him cheating right... well i finally gave up and stuff. but i still cant stop wondering about him and the one time i saw him he was at the mall w/ his arms wrapped around another girl and he like ran from me (proly afraid id kick his ass) anyways... i still love him! i kno we could never be together now and that he is a total ass for abandoning me... but i cant help it!!
I don't understand how women can love men that treat them like crap. You are probalably still hung up on him because he was the first guy that paid attention to you. You just need to keep telling yourself that he was a jerk.
Also, you should never give up people and things in your life to be with a guy. If he really cared about you, he would be a part of the life you have.
It's time to move on, don't let this jerk that you went out with for only a month devestate you like that. I promise you, you will have more boyfriends, and more break-ups in the future. You need to learn to deal with them. And for now, just have fun with guys, don't be so serious and think they are your soul mate after only a month. Because you really don't know them as much as you think you do.
Is it just me or does it seem like there arent enough questions lol cuz i check back sometimes and there are never any new questions.. im bAhAmAmA0250 if anybody was wondering but i was wondering if it was just me and emily.
I would rather have a few good questions rather than the same stupid questions asked over and over again. I am tired of filtering through all this junk.
does anyone know a way to make your room look great .. but keep it afordable.. like any furniture that i could make myself but within a budget.. also, im 14 and i dont want anything too sofsticated but i don't want it looking like a little girls room either .. also if it helps im probably painting my room darker colors like a dark red or something
Summer is here and that means lots of yard sales! You can find all kinds of neat pieces of furniture and accessories for cheap! And don't be afraid to haggle, since your younger people might be willing to sell for a lower price. I have also found some great unique accesoiress at Marshall's.
The easiest way to make a room look great is to simply get rid of the clutter. Less is more.
Love the color choice, but don't go too dark or it will make you room seem much smaller.
Have fun!
My neighbor offered her 1988 Honda Civic for 1000.00, It needed a battery, 4 tires, I could not test drive it, It had expired plates. I trusted her word. The car sat for 8 months, undriven. She is letting me make payments. I signed a paper saying so. When I got the title, her name was never on there. I only had the car 2 months and I already bought a battery, tires. Now it needs about 200.00 worth of work on it to run. She will not lower the price, and I no longer have a job. I offered the car back. She refuses. What else can I do. I am paying for a car that is only worth 600.00 the most. She took advantage of me. Also the car is in my husband's name. How can I get out of this situation. Please help!
Unfortunatly you have alreay agreed to pay the amount. I wouldn't say she is trying to rip you off. You agreed to pay her price, it is only fair that you keep your part of the deal. It isn't her falt you don't have a job to pay for the car. Cars are expensive and often give you unexpected bills. Unfortunatly you are stuck with the car and the bills. You should just cut your losses, sell the car and pay back your neighbor.
P.S. I check the Kelly Blue Book Value:
1988 Honda Civic $2,225 - $3,400
(You weren't "ripped" off)
female/13 ok ..... I have a friend who that when ever she needs me I am always there , but when it is put the other way around she doesn't do the same for me . I am sick of being in last place , whenever I ask can she go to the mall with me she ditches me to go with some other guy , but if she wants to go and I have am not able to she gets mad and gets an attitude , and when ever we fight it is always MY fault . Like last time she got mad cause I tld my other friend something that I was going through with my amily and I refused to tell her cause she wouldn't understand cause she has both of her parents. What should I do ?
It's time to put your foot down. She will continue to treat you this way (because she knows she can) until you do something about it. Don't take her attitude. If she ditches you, let her know that it upsets you and it's a crappy thing to do. And if she doesn't get things her way don't appoligise for it. You don't have to answer to her. Stop being her doormat!
