so you know how if the test thing says negative you should take another one just to be sure? if it says positive should you have to take another one too? can it ever "lie" when it says positive? (link)
| |
At-home pregnancy tests have come a long way in the past years, but there are not error-proof. It is very possible to get what is known as a false positive as a result. It is always recommended to repeat the test for affirmation. If you get two different results, a third test is needed. Please keep in mind the at home test mainly search for the most abundant pregnancy hormone, so you're most secure route is to consult a doctor, but the at homes are pretty accurate, so after taking 2 matching tests, you should feel confident in the results. :)

how would you diagram these sentences? I'm lost!!
1. Roger is waiting patiently.
2. Lions and tigers are really wild animals. (link)
|
Roger is the subject of the sentence and that is usually labeled with an S. Is and waiting would be the verbs, but is would be considered a helping verb and patiently would be adverb because it describes to you how he is waiting. Please keep in mind you need to also make note of the nomnicate and predicate of the sentence. Nomnicate is anything before the verb (including the subject) while predicate is after. For proper procedures please consult your text book or you may want to visit: http://www.geocities.com/gene_moutoux/diagrams.htm
or http://www.lifestreamcenter.net/DrB/Lessons/TS/diagram.htm
Once you do a couple you will get the hang of it! :)

my boyfriend recently moved about 3 hours away. he comes back and visits every two weeks. and his next visit is on his birthday. i got him a nice shirt from abercrombie, a necklace, cologne and a little build a bear i made for him. i have everything i need i just need a cute way to give it to him i dont want to just be like oh here you go-his birthday is on april fools day if that helps any (link)
|
There are tons and tons of ways you can present his presents to him! Anyway you do it though, I am sure he will appreciate it. Here are some ideas for you:
-Scavenger hunt to each of the presents that you place somewhere
-Write a little riddle or poem first
-Wait a long time to give it to him and then act like you totally forgot about it--hence the whole April Fool's day
-You could set up a game like how they have on the Price is Right and he has to guess ammounts of stuff to "win" the presents.
Again, there are so many option, just do something from your heart--can't go wrong there. But I think a scavenger hunt would be pretty fun! :)

ok so my stomachs been hurting a lot lately, & idk why. could i be pregnant if i never had sex? and i never got fingered either. i know its dumb but im soo worried. (link)
| |
As mentioned by those below, pregnancy really isn't a prevalent concern here as you have never had sex. Having a hurt stomach could be caused by a number of things. In the next few days, pay attnetion to what you are eating (make wise choices), and see how it progresses. It could be as simple as a bug, or eating too much of a certain kind of food (ie: fried food), or maybe it could even been the starting stages of an ulcer or too much acid being produced. I am sure it's nothing major, but just wait a day or two and let your parents know so they can best decide if you need to see a doctor or not. :)

I have different sizes of breasts. Do you also have that? I know it's normal, but for those who did have different sizes of breasts, did it eventually grow evenally?
-Alien (link)
| |
What you have is completely normal. Almost every female has a slight difference in her breast size. It is often that the hand you write with that breast is small because you work that muscle more therefore the muscle reszts up higher thus appearing smaller. Eventually they can grow out and excerszing these muscles can also help, but it's not a big deal. (As long as its less than a cup or no more than a cup size difference) :)

I'm going on birth control because my cramps come from hell and my period lasts almost 2 weeks.
What are the side effects?
I heard it clears up your acne/or makes it worse and that you gain weight?
(link)
| |
Different types of birth control will have different effects and of course effects will vary from person to person. Birth control will help regulate your period, reduce it's length most likely, and lighten your flow. In addition, birth control because it deals with your hormone levels is said to help clear up acne. Sometimes a slight weight gain can occur, but it's only about 5 pounds usually and you can easily manage this. You may experience tenderness or soreness of the breasts and mild cramping at first. Consulting with your doctor will help choose which type is best for you. A highly used BC is Ortho Tri Cyclen--it is commonly prescribed t young teens to clear up acne and has mild side effects. :)

Ok, so there's this girl at my school that I like. But she likes someone else, and I'm gettin sorta jealous. How do get her to like me, instead of the other guy...? (link)
| |
Well, you can't control someone's feelings and force them to like you. You can however make a good impression and impact them. Compliment her. Be casual. Don't try to hard or be too obvious. Just be yourself. Ask her a simple question maybe about homework. Ask her if she wants to go to a basketball game or something together or get coffee. You may even want to suggest going with some other people so it's not too akward the first time. Just make a sincere attempt, and she'll notice. If you don't get the reaction from her that you want though, don't be too bummed; there's LOTS of girls! :)

But i also cant walk away from her. I love her.
And i also cant go on a break with her, becuase im to afraid of what she will do if shes not with me cuz i cant trust her whatsoever anymore. HELP (link)

Wow. Right off the bat this all sounds like a lot of drama. Too much for you to be taking in. There's a key concept you need to ALWAYS remember: Relationships and love should lift you up, not drag you down and bring out your best attributes. Secondly, a relationship does NOT function with 100% trust. No matter how hard you try or attempt to convince yourself, it just won't work. I understand where you are coming from here though, and it's okay to feel the "victim" role here. People do mistakes. And that's okay. Just so long as you learn from them, grow, move on, and don't repeat them. She may "love" you to her fullest potential at the time being, but you don't go sleeping around with some guy just 2 days later. That's disrespectful to you, the other guy, and herself. I know it's tough to walk away--and maybe this is something you can try to salvage; if you think she's worthy of that. It's going to take a lot of time, effort, and communication. You're going to have to lay out everything on the table. Please keep in mind there always that risk of a repeat and you really need to evaluate what's best for YOU. Hard as it may be, my personal suggestion would to be to walk away from this. You're 18--you don't need to be in pain. Have fun. Smile. Laugh. Find someone that is going to respect you, themselves, and y'alls relationship. If in time, you think she's shown change, then maybe give her a chance. But don't let people take advantage of you. :)

Is O.K. if I have a medium/light flow and I use a super tampon to last me all day? From say 7:00 in the morning to about 9:00 at night? I've been forced to do this before and the whole thing wasn't even soaked yet...
Is it O.K.? (link)
| |
While there is nothing wrong with using a super absorbency tampon, you really shouldn't leave the same tampon in for serious risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome. The higher absorbency the tampon and the longer you leave it in, the more risk you are posing to yourelf. I understand that you want to be able to have it in all day and not worry about it, but I think a better/safer choice would be to use a regular or super absorbency, but take it in after 8 hours. :)

well i dont know how to make out and when my boyfriend wants me to make out with him i dont know what to do:[
im despret pleaseee tell me what to do or how to make out!
thanksss (link)
|
Well this is really a lot more simple than people make it out to be. First make out sessions can be intimidating if you let them be. The key is to be comfortable. Here is a great site with step by step tips.
http://teenadvice.about.com/cs/kissing/ht/frenchkissht.htm
Also, keep in mind that talking to your boyfriend is an option. You could tell me you aren't that experienced and you want him to show you what he likes.
Just have fun. It'll come natural to you. :)

my bf is going off to college. he's a senior and im a few years younger. i thought i would be happy about it and glad that he was going and getting accepted into good schools but im not. i feel bad about it but im just not happy about it. do you think its because all of the stories about how they leave you when they go to college? we have been dating for around 5 years. any ideas or tips? (link)
| |
I think how you are feeling is pretty natural. Thne key is to talk to him about it and communicate your feelings. Let him know that you support him through everything and that you are happy for him. But also, voice to him that you are weary of what's going to happen between the two of you. Don't avoid it, hard as it may be to address. You both need to know. Being in a 5 year relationship at this age is pretty substantial, so as long as your both put forth effort and are willing, it could last. You have to figure out what works for y'all best. You can set times to talk, and etc. The key again is to just communicate. And also keep in mind, if it does mean you two will break up, you still have the rest of high school left and sometimes we need a break to realize things. :)

i need to know how do you hide my pictures on myspace? please help me im desperate. thank you (link)
| |
Well, when you go to the Edit/Upload pictures link there is an option where you can choose who views your picture. You can set it so only you can see it. In addition, you can make your profile private by setting it so only people you have as friends can see your full profile. :)

ok well my bf, nick, went to juvy 11/14/06 and i have been with out him for over a month. i guess the question is... should i tell him that maybe it will work out better when he is out or should i just wait for him. i feel so lonly inside all the time and her was the only one that could make me really laugh.i love him so much and i wont be able to see him in like 6 months to a year... what should i do.... plez help me make up my mind...!!! (link)
| |
Well, I think that is pretty strong of you to stay with him through all of this. I am sure he appreciates having someone "be there" for him and support him. If you are having doubts though, then maybe it is more realistic for you to tell him maybe y'all should pick up later when he gets out. He obviously did something not so great to get him where he ended up. I'm not saying he's a bad person or anything, but I am saying maybe he needs to take this time to reflect on himself and this could serve as a changing/learning experience. Y'all could still be friends but you don't need to be tied down to him, you need to go out and have fun and be you. So just tell him that you want to be friends, but you'll still be there for him. :)

I hate going to school.It just honestly doesn't work for me.Besides that,I think that I'd be better off on my own.
What are some ways for me to continue getting a credible education without actually going to a school every day? (link)
|
Depending on what state you live in, your options are going to slightly very. It is often that the traditional method of education is not for everyone. Before just deciding to quit attending though you really need to look at what options are going to be best suited for you. You may also want to discuss your options with your parents and/or conselors. Remember, that most stastes have a mandatory attendence law to either age 17 or 18. Failure to comply can result in court dates, probation, and truency. With all that said, here are some alternative means of education:
-Homeschooling
-GED/HSEP
-Correspondance courses
-Job Core
-School of Choice
If you have any questions on the above listed, please feel free to ask! :)

Hi im a 16 yr old girl.
I think im scared of commitment.
And im loosing my 1 month bf because of it.
He hasnt said its over but I know if I dont do something soon it will be.
If my bf starts getting serious or nice i freak out and run away. I think its because im worried about the sexual part of a relationship and im too scared to get serious because i dont want sex or anything like that.
Any advice on how to stop being so scared???
Or what I could do to make it sork still???

It's really common to feel how you are. A lot of girls feel like this at the first sight of a potentially serious relationship. But you just have to keep reminding yourself that you have to let yourself take risks in order to learn and grow. I'm not saying you have to have sex, but it's okay to take the risk and try new things in the relationship that you haven't yet.
What you for sure need to do though is communicate with your boyfriend and let him know how you are feeling. That is the best thing for the situation.
Be specific and explain to him that you like him a lot and that your feelings for him are sincere but you just are a little uneasy or uncomfortable when it comes to aspects of the relationship you haven't experienced yet. Chances are, if your boyfriend cares about you and the relationship, he is going to understand completely and work with you through this process.
And also, if it does turn out that you end up ending the relationship--that's okay, just use this as a lesson and a practice for the next way. But don't ever hold back when you know you should. Speak up when you need to. Let him know exactly what you want and don't want. Take things as slowly as you need to.
Also, you may want to talk a lot and really get to know each other a little more so that you can become more comfortable around him. :)

Im a highschool freshman and i dont wear makeup currently. i want to start but i was wondering when would be a good time. would it be weird to come into school one day without makeup, and with it the next? im told i dont look that drastically different with makeup but im not sure. thank you! (link)
| |
The key is to not over do it. You can start wearing it whenever you are most comfortable doing so. But, since Winter Break is coming up, you may want to wait til you go back next semester this way you can practice what looks work best for you. Have your mom, older sister, or another girl show you how to make it look really natural. You can also try going to a makeup place and have them do it really natural. :)

well i like this boy and ive known him since i was in diapers , haha, but hes liked me for about a month and we always talk and tell eachother we like eachother but the only time i can see him is on weekends. not every weekend though. we talk everyday online but how can i make it work? (link)
| |
Well, it may be tough, but it's not impossible. You can totally make it work for y'all. The key is communication. The weekends you know you can see each other, don't make other plans. Have plans with him already mapped out so you can utilize all the time you have with him. And during the week, drop each other little notes on the computer or whatever just saying hey and wishing each other a great day. Just talk things out with him, if y'all are both willing it will be fine. :)

Ive used tampons before and all. And get it in just fine no problems at all. My problem is getting it out. Its not "wet" enough. I dont have heavy enough flow, so it hurts getting it out. I use the lowest absorbency, the platex slim fits for teens. I cant use pads because i'm on the swimming team. How do i get it to come out without it hurting? (link)
| |
This is a common problem. And honestly, this is going to sound kind of gross, but right as you're ready to take it out, try peeing first. Some of the pee will like absorb into the tampon giving it more "wetness". Also, remember to relax! :)
