i have recently gotten mono and i have been dating my boyfriend for quite a while. the most common way to attain mono is through kissing. he is the only person i have kissed for over a year. should i be worried that he has been messing around on me?
when i ask him he swears that nothing is going on.
not only that, but i have just had my doubts lately. i really love him and i dont want to be a controlling crazy girlfriend but i dont want to be strung along like an idiot either. what do you recommend i do?
and if you have ever had mono, how long did it take until you felt better?
don't jump to conclusions just yet! you can get mono from sharing a drink with somebody, and lots of ways other than kissing. so don't dump your boyfriend just because you have mono :) or, if he drank after somebody, or something... you can't really tell necessarily. i bet you can get it from sharing chapstick or something. anyway, he swears that nothing is going on, so you need to trust him for now until you hear something from a friend or something. i've never had it (that i can remember) but i would think that it might take around a week to get rid of it? drink plenty of fluids, and get better soon!
Hey.
15/m
So school started the other week.
And its been pretty much wonderful.
I have a friends who is bi.
And in the past week I think he has started flirting with me.
Now, I'm not gay.
But I have no problem with gay people.
So...
How can I tell if he really does likes me (not by asking?
I prettty conceited,
so I am hoping that i am just "thinking" that he likes me.
help?
Thanks
that's a hard situation. i've been in it too (i'm a girl who likes boys, it was really weird). you can't really do anything at this stage except maybe spend more time with other friends, or even when you're around him make triple sure you're not giving off false pretenses. talk about girls or something in front of him. if he asks you out or even mentions something like that, that's the time for you to say that you don't swing that way and you don't think of him like that. don't ever be afraid to do what you want to do, and if you don't want to be involved with him (which, i'm just taking a wild guess here and saying that's a no) then don't let him think that there could possibly be something between you two. but yeah, if he starts flirting with you, change the subject... quickly. good luck :)
What would you do if you came back to your school parking lot and found out that your car was dented...would you go and tell the school, and ask them tofigure out who it was?
I think i may have dented a car when i was backing out today, and i'm really scared of getting in trouble.
Please help! THnaks
absolutely, i would go and figure out who it was. you have to take responsibility for your actions. you have to be responsible to have a car. that means that if you run into something, you need to make things right with whoever owns it. the person whose car you hit is probably pretty pissed off right now. i know i would be. so you can't be scared of getting in trouble... you wouldn't have gotten in trouble in the first place if you had just confessed. so think about it. you have to be accountable for your actions.
WHen i was backing up....i hit a car, and i was just wondering if cars ALWAYS dent...like when i hit it my car was fine, but the other car like shook (i wasnt going fast when i hit it)...
Is it possible that i didnt dent it? When i looked at the car like an hour later (the other car, there was a dent...but it looks likes its in the wrong place. But now i'm reallllly worried that it was me and i'm going to get caught...what do i do??????
it doesn't always dent, sometimes if you just brush against another car it will only leave a small mark. but it is your responsibility to tell the person that you ran into their car. i mean, that's like a law or something. you need to find them if you can and tell them, and next time something like that happens, leave them a note. that's the least you can do, honestly. if somebody hit me in a parking lot, i would rather them leave a note in my windshield wiper than just drive off and hope they don't get caught. plus, you don't have to worry about anything if you have auto insurance. but yeah, if somebody hit my car and didn't leave any information and just drove off, i would hunt them down and beat the crap out of them.
do some jamacans speak french or am i thinking of a totally different country?
i believe you are thinking of haiti, which is in the caribbean. i guess there are a few jamaicans that can speak french, but it's not their national language. one thing about haiti that sticks out in my mind is that the country is so poor that their main export is cadavers, which are dead bodies used for medical school and stuff. it's quite sad.
Hi. I tried knee boarding yesterday and I tried it 8 times in 2 days. I didn't get up once and hurt myself 4 times. Everyone I was with could get up, but most of them were smaller so it was easier to get themselves up. Everyone laughed at me because I sucked and I was really embarrassed. I'm going back to do it again next week and I live to prove people wrong and I wanna show them that I can do it. It's hard though because I have really long legs. If you've knee boarded, what tips help you to get up? And also what exercises or whatever can help me improve to get up on a knee board and help keep balance? Nothing involved with water because I only go to the lake on weekends but I wanna somehow get ready and practice during the week. Help!
oh, i love kneeboarding! it was hard for me at first too. okay, so when you start out and you're in the water, normally you put your elbows in the place on the board where your knees go and your legs are straight out behind you. if you don't start like this... good luck because it's very difficult to get up any other way. so when the boat starts going, wait until it gets at full speed before you start to pull yourself up- slowly. don't be pressured by your friends if they get up faster than you do. the first couple of times i kneeboarded, i had to wait a really long time until i could get enough strength in my arms to pull myself up onto the board. it requires a whole lot of upper body strength. since you have really long legs, i can see where it's hard for you. just remember- when you get up on the board, don't sit up straight! lean back so that your butt is on top of your feet or lower legs. you don't want to lean forward, or you will fly forward and possibly hit your head on the board. you don't want to lean too far back either because the board can fly up out from under you. here's some good practice- when you're watching tv or sitting on the floor or something, sit on your knees. and just sit on your knees like you normally would, with your butt resting on your feet. then, with only your upper body (keep from the waist down completely still) lean back about three inches. kneeboarding is exactly like that! so if you can get from your entire body being in the water when you start out, and slowly creep up to that position, then you've got it! by the way, my friend also has long legs and it was hard for her to start kneeboarding and skiing and stuff, so that's perfectly normal because it's really hard. as far as balance, have you ever heard that shorter people have a lower center of gravity? that means that they have more balance. so if you lower yourself, that is lowering your center of gravity. if you are kneeboarding and you see a wave coming up, just hunker down on the kneeboard and you will be fine. the same goes for skiing, ice skating, rollerblading, anything like that. here's a picture of the posture you should have: http://www.wikihow.com/Image:Kneeboard2.jpg now, that girl in the picture is leaning back a little too much if she's going slow, but when you start going faster and jumping wakes and stuff (fun) then it's better to lean back that much. kneeboarding is really fun, and don't ever quit trying! my best friends and i love to go to the lake, and we normally put three ski ropes out for three kneeboards and we go under each others ropes and stuff, and jump the wakes. it's really, really fun. good luck!
EDIT: i forgot this little piece of advice. the girl in the picture i linked to is holding the ski ropes incorrectly. her right hand is correct, but the left hand needs to be flipped upside down so that she's holding the ropes from the bottom only with her left hand. it feels weird at first but makes things a whole lot easier when you start cutting across wakes and stuff.
i'm a 14 year old female. almost 15.
i'm 5'10 and 160 lbs and i play basketball year-round
is it better for me to drink water or gatorade during practices and games?
i want to lose 10 lbs so which one is better to drink?
i read that gatorade gives more energy and i'll have a little more endurance than the water. but which is one better?
gatorade has a whole lot of sugar (like, 30 grams per serving or something like that), so water is healthier for you from a weight loss standpoint. however, gatorade has electrolytes and stuff that water doesn't necessarily have. try fitness water, like propel. it has the good vitamins and stuff from gatorade, and little or no sugar in it. plus, it tastes good :)
I'm kind of getting sick of listening to the same music over and over again on my iPod. So I'm looking for other bands/songs that I can listen to.
Would anyone care to suggest any good rock bands/songs? Anything similar to Fall Out Boy, Panic !at the Disco, Alice Nine, etc. would be great. The songs can be in any language.
Thanks in advance, I'll rate high for good suggestions.
my favorites are weezer, the arctic monkeys (awesome), and the white stripes. the arctic monkeys have a relatively new album out, and it's basically awesome. here is a video of them on youtube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Lxo3M0LUORE
Um how do you pronounce Relient K?
you know the word "reliant", as in, "i'm reliant on other people"? it is pronounced like that word. i'm from texas, so maybe i say it a little weird, but it's generally REE-LIE-ANT KAY. the emphasis is normally put on the LIE sound just a little bit. maybe you can search on youtube for videos of them, and you might find a video with somebody saying their name in it?
well i know you have to have an ID to get into clubs and buy drinks and everything, but is it a special ID or is it just your drivers license?
just your driver's license.
I have a few math problems I forgot how to do. If you only know how to do one of them that's fine. Thanks in advance.
1. What does this mean? "What is the slope of the linear equation 5y-10x=-15" How do you figure it out?
2. If x = 2a - b2, how do you figure out what "a" equals?
3. How do you figure out what the slope of the linear equation 5y-10x=-15 is?
we're not supposed to give answers, so i'll just tell you how :)
1. slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. so if you have 5y-10x=-15... you have to basically get the left side of the equation (5y-10x) to just be y. to do this, add 10x to both sides of the equation... then if you know how to do equations you know the next step (it involves dividing the whole thing by the number connected to y at that point). then... voila! you have y=whatever. so, since the slope is the letter m, and slope-intercept form is y=mx+b... look at the number that is connected to the x (and that would be in the same position as the m). yes, that is your slope :) and of course the b part at the end is the y-intercept. making sense now?
2. first of all, you always put the number in front of the variable. so b2 should be 2b. i'm trying not to like answer your homework for you so i don't get kicked off this site so sorry if i'm being vague. and as far as solving that, there is no solution unless there is more info given because there's not a way to solve it any further without knowing more. so you would just write down the simplest form of the answer... and since you can't simplify that any more than it is without more info, that would probably be what you write down. i really hope i helped, and if you have any more math questions, don't hesitate to ask!
EDIT: now that i think about it, i screwed up number 2 with the specific instructions (the solving for a part) so listen to jack about what to write down and not me.
Where can I find cheap ripped jeans? Links would be great.
the cheapest way is to rip your own! there's tons of information here: http://www.wikihow.com/Special:LSearch?fulltext=Search&search=rip+jeans
i've ripped my own jeans before and it really works great. you just take a pair of old jeans and go at 'em with a knife and some bleach. i think that places like t.j. maxx or kohl's would have cheap ripped jeans. american eagle has them too but they're like 30 or 40 bucks.

ive been trough many relationships, im a nice guy siriously, well every girl ive gone out with well they all ended up being bitches or something like that and they all broke up with me for dumb reasons like we wern't french kissing by our third day of going out and stuff like that, but this year i met this girl i thought she was different she told me she liked me but that she couldnt have a boyfreind till shes 16 so i told her i would wait, a few weeks later she told me she rather be freinds i told her it was alright but the other day i found out she has a boyfreind already, my point is, it there any girls out there who arent like that who are nice, pretty smart, and have a great personality? or why is it so hard to find someone like that?
to tell you the truth, girls SUCK. i am one (16/f), so i would know. yes, there are girls out there who are nice, pretty smart, and have a good personality... you just have to weed out the girls that suck. and there are a lot of girls that suck. i see them every day, and i honestly feel sorry for their boyfriends. if a girl ever makes you feel like you're not worthy, or like you don't mean anything to her... she's not worth your time. too many girls are focused on stupid crap like how much makeup they have on and gossip... it's just not worth it. there are a lot of girls out there who want a boyfriend just to say that they have a boyfriend... not to have an actual relationship. and here's something i've learned: the best leaders lead by example. i know that doesn't make sense in this situation exactly, but the best leaders are the ones who are doing the right thing, and they don't have to tell people, "hey, i'm doing the right thing!" they just do it. so, if you use that theory in your situation... you want to find a girl who just does the right thing, or who is the girl for you, without her having to say "hey, i'm doing the right thing! i'm the girl for you!" it should just happen, and she should be the kind of person who is kind to others and stuff, and you can just tell by how she acts that she's worth your time. which, sadly, a lot of girls aren't. but hey, keep being a nice guy... because there aren't many of you out there either.
Ok if someone saved there number onto your phone would they expect you to call them? What if the person didn't have your number but only gave you his? Would you still call? Or is that sounding desperate ?
hmm, well, when i put my number into people's phones, i don't expect them to call me unless i say, "hey, call me" or if there's a party or something. call them if you have something to tell them or ask them, but if you don't feel comfortable with whoever it is, you probably shouldn't just call and be like, "hey, what's up?" because you might not have that much to talk about. here's my reasoning: if the person wants to talk to you, they should get your number and call you. you won't sound desperate, but if i were you i would just wait (especially if i have nothing to talk about) until the person might say something along the lines of "so why didn't you call me?" at which point you can say, "you never told me to!"
Um, well this question is not so much of a question...Im really scared of what im doing to my body..I've done somthing horribly wrong and I've always known that I've been hurting myself but I do it anyways...I've been using tampons in the wrong way. Um well first I masterbate (sorry I didn't know what else to say to replace that word) intirely wayyy too much, its an everday issue with me and its not that im desprate its just that im too shy to do any thing with a guy so I just....ya. Well since I've done that so much, I've had alot of discharge, it feels like Im always on my period and so thats why I use a tampon everyday and my mom found out because shes notice she buys them almost every other week..I've been doing this for over three years now I think or two years and over time I think its been messing me up becuase I've bled once lightly for a week and I had just quit and then I have odors and its all the time and it changes but its horrible and its extremly embarresing and thats also why I haven't done any thing with a guy..not that u needed to know that but... I still use tampons and I still have odors and heavy discharge and I do still get my period at regular times but I dont know whats wrong with me. My mom told me I could die if I kept doing this but I dont know what else to do. She wont take me to the doctor but she only forgets so its alright but she doesnt think that anythings wrong with me she just thinks I need to quite using them but I want to stop it. But I dont really want to go anyways. I just want to know if theres somthing I can do or if it will ever go away or if I may have something like a disease or sickness or any thing. The odor and heavy discharge happened like a year and a half ago but if you have any idea what may be wrong with me without me having to see a doctor that would be great or any thing I can do to stop it please and thank you for your time and helping me!
i don't think there's anything "wrong" with you because heavy discharge can be normal. i actually don't believe that masturbation affects amount of discharge, but if you want to find out for yourself, don't masturbate as much and see what happens. another alternative is to wear pads or pantiliners instead of tampons. i agree with your mom- that is dangerous to wear them all the time. if you really want to see if you can fix your problem, you can try to go to the doctor but you're not like having a medical emergency so it's not imperative. but just find a way around using tampons that much because you can get infections and stuff from having things like that inside of you that much.
what does it mean to feather your bangs? pictures please :]
http://www.tonyakingdesigns.com/site/1397047/page/45031
that website has a few pictures. yeah, i've never heard of those before, but they look kind of weird... you can get normal clip on bangs if you don't feel like wearing a bird on your forehead :)
i want to find some "pretty songs"
like. where the music is just pretty.
i don't know if you know what i mean.
buuut, hmm. like an example would be
songs from colbie caillat, or by
a fine frenzy - almost lover.
i don't know. songs like that.. that
are just PRETTY. haha. orrr by
gregory and the hawk. stufff like that.
pleasee help out with maybe a list or
something. thanks a bunch :]
i love the song "hallelujah" by jeff buckley. it's great to listen to while doing homework. also, "bittersweet symphony" by the verve, "magic" by ben folds, "satellite" by dave matthews band, "trouble" by coldplay, "lover, you should've come over" by jamie cullum, "world on fire" by sarah mclachlan, "birds of st. marks" by jackson browne, "what a difference a day makes" by jamie cullum.
Um when God died, came back..i dunno but there's three days to it, Does anyone know what month and the three days were? I really need it for an assignemnt and i don't know how to look it up.
first of all... god didn't die because god isn't a human being. jesus was crucified. this was in the month of april. the three days are part of easter. the first day is friday- good friday. that is the day that jesus died. and then that sunday is easter- when he came back. there's a whole lot about this in the bible. there's also a whole lot on wikipedia. easter's date changes every year because it's always on a weekend in april, but not always the same weekend. it's symbolistic of what christ went through and it is a major holiday in the christian religion. "I really need if for an assignemnt and i don't know how to look it up." google, or any human being on the face of the earth.
I need alternativeish songs to play at a middle school dance.
We usually have just rap and hiphop, but we're having one where we don't play any of that.
What are some good dancing songs?
I've thought of
Are you gonna be my girl - Jet
Rollover DJ - Jet
For the Girl - The Fratellis
Help???
those are good songs so far! other ones could be basically anything by franz ferdinand- one of their most popular songs is "take me out", i don't think it has bad words or anything (if that's an issue). also, "low rider" by war is always a great one! it's one of those songs that just needs to be played at every dance ever. here are some more:
alien ant farm - smooth criminal
all american rejects - swing swing
arctic monkeys - d is for dangerous (not well known, but still really good)
beatles - love me do
ben folds five - kate
counting crows - accidentally in love
dave matthews band - ants marching
franz ferdinand - this fire
guns n roses - paradise city
james brown - i feel good
jimi hendrix - foxy lady
juliana theory - don't push love away
the killers - all these things that i've done
lit - my own worst enemy
lynyrd skynyrd - sweet home alabama (everyone loves this song)
matchbox twenty - 3 a.m.
mika - love today (awesome!)
modest mouse - float on
no doubt - just a girl
oasis - morning glory
rolling stones - i can't get no satisfaction
seven mary three - cumbersome
the strokes - 12:51
u2 - beautiful day
velvet revolver - slither
the vines - get free
weezer - the good life
if you don't have these cds, you can listen to a 30 second preview on itunes if you're thinking about buying some. or you can ask your friends if they have any cool cds! also, if you're playing songs from an ipod or laptop or something at the dance, you can put up a little sheet beside the dj table for requests, and people can write down what songs they want to hear. so if you have the song, then you can play it! there are also certain songs that just should be played at every dance... YMCA, crazy frog song, sandstorm, crazy little thing called love (queen), l.o.v.e. (nat king cole), any man of mine (shania twain), and so much more! it sounds like fun :)
What are some good ideas for an article for a school newspaper?
well, you can write about something like this: at my school, if you get your cell phone taken up, you have to pay fifteen dollars to get it back. so one kid wrote a column about where all that money goes. it was sort of a "detective" thing and he interviewed the principals and stuff. very interesting. he found out how much money in fines students pay per year, and what funds that goes to and stuff. part of it pays for the senior prom, i think. but it was like multiple thousands of dollars in cell phone returns! do you have anything like that at your school, where you have to pay money for something (other than lunch)?
