If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.[9/2/08] [5/7/08] [16/7/08] [23/9/09] [28/5/10] [29/5/10] [3/6/10]

advice
someone called me "boo" what does that mean?
Boo is normally a pet name (baby, hunny, etc).
I know people have also used it to shorten down the word beautiful.
Im getting a tattoo on friday. I'm going to a respectable place, but I'm afraid of risks! Like what could happen? Whats the WORST things that could happen to me? For example, what if I get hepatitus? Can that be cured? I've tried researching tattoos (I've been researching for a month), but so many articles don't include enough information for me.
So please help me out, what are the risks?
Experiences would also be good
Thanks so much :)
You're going to a reputable place so you won't need to worry about contracting hepatitis! Stop worrying.
All info about hepatitis is here just incase you want to read it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatitis
The only "risks" you really need to worry about is being allergic to the ink. whilst they are rare, it's still best to know about it, you know, just incase.
A page on allergies:
http://wiki.bmezine.com/index.php/Ink_Allergy
This will explain about tattoo inks:
http://wiki.bmezine.com/index.php/Tattoo_ink
and remember the obvious things, like being allergic to latex (tattooists wear gloves).
My advice would be to talk it through with your tattooist beforehand. It's part of their job to reassure you and talk you through everything, before and after. Tell him/her you're a little worried and they're sure to put your mind at ease.
Also, follow their aftercare instructions if you don't want it to turn nasty.
Don't worry and I hope it all turns out great.
I used a cotton swab pad thing with nail polish remover to take my nail polish off. Once I was done, I threw it away in my trash can. Then a few hours later my dog went over when I wasn't looking and took the cotton thing out of my trash can and started chewing on it...
Is this bad? Like, the remover was 100% completely dry and had been sitting in the trash can for at least an hour. Is it harmful to him even though it was dry?
Your dog should be fine. It's not like he was drinking it.
okay so me and a bunch of my friends were planning on having a beach party tomorrow but now it's supposed to rain. it's the last time we can all hang out before everyone leaves for camp. so we need new ideas on what to do.. HELP?!
so far we only have
-bowling
-indoor mini golf
but those are kinda lame and we need something more fun to do =]
any ideas are welcome
Bowling is fun when there's a bunch of you, so I think that's quite a nice idea.
Perhaps go to see a film as well.
Or maybe, if it's possible, chill out at one of your houses, or bring the party there.
Check out any other activities to do like the ones you've suggested that are in your area.
I hate it when it rains but it shouldn't spoil your fun. I'd still go to the beach party, but bring an umbrella ;)
Does masterbating affect you in any way?
I do by rubbing my vagina on my bunk bed pole and kissing it.
Can this affect me..
You kiss what?
Anyway, of course it won't affect you unless you're using knives or anything that can hurt you!!
Make sure whatever you use is clean to prevent infections..
In around a month i have something extremely important to me coming up.
I've recently had my Hair cut, and its jst abit longer than a bob.
I dont really like it to be honest.
Could my hair grow back in a month? n shoulder length?
Any ways to speed the process up..?
Having your hair cut shocks it into growing, so yes it will grow by a months time. No, it won't all grow back by then, but you should notice a slight change.
Ways to speed it up are to eat properly (getting all your vitamins etc), drink water, sleep well.. just basically keeping yourself healthy will all add up.
Also make sure you're using a nourishing shampoo and conditioner and you'll be well on your way to longer hair.
im 15
ive made out with one boy
ive never had a relationship
all my friends have
its embarsing.
what can i do.
I thought by now SOMETHING would of happened for me to have a love life..
There's nothing wrong with not having a relationship by 15. In fact, a lot people don't. Just because your friends have, doesn't mean it's the same for you. It will happen in time, so stressing over it now isn't really going to help.
If you find a boy you like, why don't YOU be the one to talk to him etc.
Be confident and don't feel embarrassed, because at the end of the day, you are still only 15 - that is a young teen and it's normal for you to have not had a relationship just yet. Okay? :)
okayy this is gunna sound gross but my boyfriend gave me a hickie like down down there right by where i pee :/ and it like swelled up and now is all puffy and im kinda scared now cuz it just looks bad and it scares me something could be wrong, is there anything wrong? will it go away it doesnt hurt or anything and i dont feel it
A hickey is a bruise.. so no wonder it's swollen down there and it wouldn't surprise me if it does start hurting.
Give it a few days to calm down and you should be fine.
I'd like to know if guys care whether or not a girl they are with has a small house or a big house and what not.
A guy will like you for YOU.. not the size of your house! I doubt house size will really have any impact to be honest.. there are a lot more important issues.
Haha this is such a random question..but Sex on the beach..how do you not get caught? My boyfriend and I would like to try it when we go to the beach next week but we're both scared of getting caught!
Suggestions or stories?
Thanks a ton =)
Doing it where there's sand is a bad idea.. not because you might get caught, but it will get pretty much everywhere and it's not comfortable at all...
If you're still determined to do it, just keep a look out. If there are people around, don't do it.
Try and get to a secluded area if you can.
Or you could wait 'til it's dark.
I have the worst problems with shaving. Everytime I shave no matter how careful I am, I always get red bumps where I have just shaven. It is so gross especially under my arms because then I can't wear tank tops or anything. I have tried different kinds of razors and I am constantly putting new blades on, but nothing is working. PLease help!
Shaving will always slightly irritate your skin. Put on a shaving gel before hand if you don't already. It helps soothe it as you shave and helps with the bumps. If you don't have any, conditioner (what you use on your hair) will do the trick! As well as leaving your skin smooth :)
Also, remember not to go too hard.
If you still get those annoying bumps.. it may be time to try other hair removing methods such as creams and wax... Each persons skin reacts differently. Find out what works for you.
At parties and things, i always feel im just there.
All my friends end up kissing boys, and getting with people, and im ALWAYS just there.
Also, im never the girl the boys flirt with its always other people.
Im not the prettiest of all lasses, and its really starting to affect me, as i thought buy the age of 15 i would have had atleast one boyfriend, or made out with someone more than once.
Can i do anything to change alot?
xxx
You are 15 years old.
Seriously..
You aren't behind. Infact, I don't know many people who were getting with others at parties at that age when I was younger.
There isn't a set time to get with someone. Just because everyone else is doing it shouldn't make you feel like you're "just there" and not pretty enough to get with boys. It will happen in time.
The whole point of parties is to enjoy yourself in the company of the people you know... not be stressing over not kissing boys.
Your time WILL come... maybe sooner.. maybe later.
Think positive. and just wait. :)
Focus on enjoying the parties for now :)
Yesterday I borrowed some lip gloss from a friend who had a cold sore. Admittedly, I wasn't thinking. I didn't realize I could get cold sores from her until much later in the day. Well, anyway, me question is: Is there anything I can do to prevent catching cold sores? I know I already exposed myself to the virus, but is there anything I can do? I really really do not want cold sores. Thanks.
No. You can't change the damage which may have already been done.
Read this for any info on about cold sores.

when you go to get your eyebrows waxed, what do they ask you? ive never been in my life or seen it happen or talked to anybody who has ever got them waxed. and i have this picture that is how i want my eyebrows, can i bring it? but yea. i just want to know what the lady will ask me. and how long it will take. and what all they do. (:
They will talk to you about what type of shaped brows would suit your face, or if you've had them done before.
If you have a picture, there's no reason why you can't bring it along. If you want it, they will do it. They'll just give you their opinion along with it.
The process itself isn't long. A few minutes. Doesn't really hurt and it's nothing to worry about.
Theres this guy I kind of like at work and the other day we were talking about our facebook pages, and he asked me how to spell my name so I thought that he was going to ask me to be a friend on his, but he didn't. I haven't known him that long now. Should I wait and see if he asks me later, ignore it or should I ask HIM to be a friend? And how would I play it off if he actually says no because I don't want it to be awkward at work. Thanks for any advice :)
Why don't you just add him? I would.
There's no real reason why he would say no if he knows you.... and if he does say no for some absurd reason, so what? Nothing to be embarrassed about.
Just do it. Maybe he couldn't find you anyway.

Well its kind of a long story but we were at my house for my birthday party and my friend is going out with this guy and my friend really hate kiley like REALLY HATES HER and so we texted her boyfriend on my fone pretending to bve "kiley" to see what he would say and he told "kiley" that he wood go out with her if he wasnt going out with my friend and so he didnt know it was us so now she knows that he would talk to kiley like that and not even tell her and so now they are in a really big fight and mite break up does this make me a bad friend for like letting her know that he would talk to other girls like this and what should I do Like he said that if he and my friend broke up he would go with kiley WHAT SHOULD I DO????
There are pros and cons to this.
Con: You shouldn't have really done that in the first place. I know you can't turn the clock back now but let it be a lesson in the future to not interfere like that and play games.
Pro: It's made everyone realize he's not a very good boyfriend if he's already got other girls lined up for when he breaks up with his current one. No proper boyfriend would tell someone they would go out with someone else if they didn't already have a girlfriend. It's just not nice and shows he isn't really bothered about his relationship.
What to do?
If it's not obvious already, don't tell him it was you. It'll just cause more unnecessary arguments and you won't exactly get a good name at the end of it.
Let it all blow over.
Oh.. and tell your friend to dump him.
okayy here the thingg..
I was with my boyfriend last night
and he sat me on top of his lap..
Then he started tickling me so I
started wiggling around on his
lap. Then he started tickling me harder
and I noticed he had a weird expression
on his face and his leg was tapping fast..
plus he would constantly pull me higher onto
his lap and start breathing hard..then
start tickling me again..
What is he trying to do?
Is he horny or something?
Yeah, it seems like it.
You were moving around on his "area" and turning him on... which sounds pretty normal to me.
okay so i am f/17 and i have this best friend. but for the last year we have been liking each other on and off. and the thing is when i dont have him i want him, but when i do have him i have no interest in him. what do i do? because its really not fair to him and this is always happening.
I'm glad you realize how unfair this is.
To be honest, I just think you like the feeling of him being attracted to you. It's always a nice feeling knowing when someone likes you isn't it?
I really don't see anything more here, because your feelings wouldn't change when you have him, or at least they shouldn't..
If I were you, I'd just leave it. There's clearly not enough there at the moment which makes you properly want to be with him.
Who knows, if you spend time away from him or not thinking about dating him, it might bring you closer and make you realize you DO want him.. or it will make you realize you're better off just as friends friends.
Time will tell.. but don't string him along any more than you have done.
I wish you the best of luck with your situation.
i am really upset over the fact that my phone got teken aaway
i really wouldnt be but the thing is me and my boyfriend go to different schhools
and his phone got taken away too
and i know him, he'll be too scared to call my house
and barely ever comes online
i dont know what to do
i thought about crying
but that just wont do anything
=/
help
any ways of communication would be good ..
ugh
so
mad
You do have other options.
1. Are you allowed to call his house phone, if he's too scared to call yours?
2. Leave him an email and hope he sees it.
3. Write him a letter and put it through his letter box telling a time and place to meet or whatever you want to say. If you can't get to his house, post it.
Phones aren't the ultimate way to communicate and it's really not the end of the world.
Being mad about it won't make you get your phone back sooner.
I don't know what you did to get your phone taken away from you but I'm sure you've learnt your lesson now, so try to cheer up and focus on other things, like getting it back and carrying on as normal.
I'm sure your boyfriend is just as disappointed as you, by the way.
Good luck!
how should i meet this indie intellectual guy i really like at school? i have a friend who knows him and she has offered to introduce me but i dont think i have a chance anyways.
help please!
I think being introduced to him is a good idea, personally, because afterwards when you see him around, you can smile and say hi and ask him how he is etc.
P.S
Don't think you don't have a chance. What's the worst that could happen? You'll gain a new friend? Oh no!..
Be brave :)
