Hey everybody! I love to help people and I've been the designated advice-giver amongst my friends for years so I've gotten pretty good at it. If I haven't been through it, I know someone who has, so feel free to ask me anything! I just wish I had known about this site when I was younger and needed more advice of my own.

I heard this song on the radio the other day, but I don't know the title. At the chorus they always start with "her eyes" or something like that.
Please help~ (link)

The only song I can think of is "In Her Eyes" by Josh Groban. You can hear it here to see if it's the right song...

okay, well my neighbor saved 13 puppies from a kill shelter in georgia all from different litters and we live in massachusetts. the puppy we were going to get is a mix. we're not sure but he looks like a pitbull and a mix of something else. we've had him over so i could play with him quite a few times and he was great. we had my moms boyfriend's 7 year old boy, and 9 or 10 year old boy over too and they played great with him. we dont own the dog yet but the insurence company called and told us that no one is permitted to have a pitbull in the state of massachusetts. and if we were to get him and he bit someone and they sued us, our house and everything would get taken away. but thats like stereotyping the dog. i know people th at have pitbulls and they've never bit someone. what am i supposed to do? this is the last puppy left and i realllyyyy want him. i don't know what to do. i dont want a different puppy.

I may be wrong, but I think your insurance company is being a little deceitful with you about the laws. As far as I know, no laws have gone into effect yet that completely ban pit bulls in Mass. There are certain rules that you have to follow if you want one though... like they have to be muzzled when off your property and you must have a large sign on your property saying "Beware of Pit Bull" or something along those lines. You can get fined for not following the rules and be sued if the dog does hurt someone (but that is the same for any dog). I would call a local shelter and ask them for more information and to get the exact facts.
If its impossible for you to get this dog, remember that there are so many other dogs out there that need a home and once you get to know them you will love them just as much.
Good Luck!

i've lost all hope. i am now going into 10th grade and i started to get really bad acne in 7th grade. i tried everything. after that i used proactive and that didn't work. i finally convinced my mom to take me to a dermatologist. i've been going there for about a year and a half. my face is still the same. it's been really upsetting for me. it's hard to look people in the eyes because i feel so ugly and that they are staring at my acne. the dermatologist prescribed 2 pills a day, a morning cream, and a night cream that i do use like i am suppose to. he has put me on stronger stuff, still does not work. i feel like i'm going to look like this forever and leave scars and everything. i'm not sure what i am asking, has anyone else gone through this? any advice? i would really appreciate it, it's really depressing me. thanks in advance.

I can feel where you are coming from because I suffered with acne for years. It can be very depressing and upsetting. Maybe you could try going to a different dermatologist to get a second opinion. Most acne is treatable... you just have to find the medicine that is right for you. I tried several different kinds before I found one that worked. Have you ever tried Differin? There is a cream that a lot of people get, but there is also a super-strength liquid version that worked wonders on me. Retin-A also worked well for me. Make sure you use a good face wash. I love Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash. If you wear make-up, make sure it is non-comedogenic (won't clog pores). Try cutting back on chocolate and sweets and what ever you do, don't pick at your face because this really just makes it worse and will cause more scarring. You can do all of these things now, but just remember that as you get older, your face will start to clear up on its own. It's hard to wait but try to focus on all the other wonderful things about you and not whats on your face. Good luck!

he broke up 2 times in 6 months, first he broke up with me because he HEARD a rumor that i wanted to break up with him but she couldnt so he broke up with her, so when he found out it wasnt true that i wanted to brake up with him so wegot back together and 2nd time was he broke up with me again because he doesnt have feelings for me because he liked someone else when we were going out but he didnt wanna tell me because he was scared that im gonna hate him, but after that we still talk to each other a lot and he asked me if i had feelings for him and i said yes and he did too and he asked me out after that but then he said he wants to keep the relationship a secret because he didnt want people to know and its annoying when people asks about it so what does it mean if your boyfriend wants to keep the relationship a secret? (link)
| |
I think it may be time for YOU to break up with HIM. Any guy that breaks up with you twice in 6 months isn't worth your time. He is clearly not mature enough to be in a committed relationship. He is toying with your emotions whether he means to or not and eventually he will probably do it again. Plus, he wants to keep your relationship a secret? That's ridiculous. He should be proud of you and your relationship. It sounds like he is trying to leave his options open. You can do so much better! It may hurt, but you should ditch this guy and find someone who really wants to be with you and will tell the world!

In the movie 'A Cinderella Story', when Hilary goes to the Fall Ball and she enters, a song plays called, ' Best Day of My Life'. Everywhere i've looked had a version of this song by Jesse Mccartney, even the soundtrack; but he isn't the one singing in the movie. Does anyone know who is singing the song in the movie, and where I can find a place to download the song? Thanks! (link)
|
In the credits for the movie it lists...
"The Best Day Of My Life"
Performed by Robert D. Palmer (featuring Michael Duff)
I haven't been able to find it anywhere but that is who is singing. Hope that helps!

am i overweight for my age?
i gained 5 pounds within 5 months , idk if that matters .
i know i dont eat healthy.
what are some healthy , but tasty things to eat like snacks.
i have fat free whipcream,strawberries,turkey,cheese,tomatos,oatmeal,lettuce,cucumbers,peanut butter,marshmellows(low fat),cookies, 2% milk and more, but can you make healthy foods out of that? ideas.? (link)
|
If you go to this link and enter you weight and height it will calculate if you are at a healthy weight. You are in the upper part of the Normal weight range which is good for someone your age. A lot of girls gain a bit of weight as their bodies change and they get older.
http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
It sounds like the foods you are eating are actually pretty healthy. Vegetables are great because most actually have negative calories (meaning you burn more calories chewing them up then they have in them to begin with)! Cheese is pretty high in cholesterol so that might be one thing to cut back on.
The best thing to do is exercise... burn more calories than you eat. Jogging and crunches are great ways to tone up. Good luck!

I think I could have an infection in my underarms. Lately, since it's been summer, I can't fall asleep at night because of the irritation in my armpits.
I use "Certain Dri" night deodorant, which has always caused an irritation. The label said stop use if irritation or rash occurs, and I've always had an irritation/rash there, but never too bad. However, despite this I continued to use it because it was the only thing that stopped my sweating. Its pretty wierd, because now that its summer, my arm pits feel really itchy when I'm trying to go to sleep (Certain Dri is a night deodorant, which while you sleep, it shrinks the pores to limit prespiration). This past week, its been HORRIBLE, and every morning when I wake up, my underarms are so sensitive I can barely move my arms because ottherwise it sort of "chafes" (sp?) but in my armpit area.
It keeps me awake every night for about 2 hours, and then causes me pain in the morning. I don't think that I can stop using it though, because its summer and I hang out with a lot of boyyss =]
SO PLEAASE help me I have no idea what to do! (link)
| |
I tried using Certain-Dri and other prescription deodorants and had the same problem. The chemicals are irritating the sensitive skin and you basically have a burn that needs to heal. You should stop using it for a week or so to let it heal because it's going to get worse if you keep using it. Once it heals, try to use it every other night or so. That helped me.

There's a Father's Day J.C. Penny commercial that's been on for a while. Anyway, I wanna know the artist and name of the song that plays during the commercial. Thanks soo much. (link)

Are you referring to the one with the girl connected to her father by a white string? If so, the song is "Kaleidoscope" by the Sleepy Rebels.

Does anybody know some rally quick and extremely easy and tasty recipes for fingerfoods? It's a friends birthday and we're thinking of going bowling later, and I'm going to have a cake, a bowl of chocolate dipped pretzels and such, but then I need a plate of tasty fingerfoods. Got any recipes? I'm looking for things such as pigs in blankets and stuff in that category. Thanks! (link)

This Nacho Dip is really easy to make and is always a hit when I have parties...
You'll need...
Tortilla chips (Tostitos Gold work great because they are thicker for dipping)
Salsa (16 oz is usually plenty)
Cream Cheese (8oz or 12oz depending on # of people)
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Vegetables (green and red peppers, red onion work best)
1. Let the cream cheese soften a bit and then spread it out on a large tray or plate
2. Cover the cream cheese with a layer of salsa
3. Cover with shredded cheese
4. Cut up veggies into small cubes and sprinkle over the top
5. Use chips to pick up layers and enjoy!
The quantities for everything should really just be to your taste. If you like lots of cheese, add more. Don't like spicy veggies? Just put them on one side of the plate or make two plates.

how long after sex is the morning after pill effective, isnt there a 72 hour pill? if so where can you buy it? (link)

You are right... it's 72 hours. If you are under 18, you need a prescription, but if you are over, you can go to this website, enter your zip code and find a provider near you...

Short story:
My bffl. let's call him Joe, and I have been friends since 6th grade--we're both in 9th grade right now. His sister and my sister were on the know each other friend kind of basis? Anyways, let's call his sister Jane. Well, Jane finished her 2nd yr of college and she came home for summer break. Well, Joe and I were joking around in Biology about drinking hand sanitizer [don't ask]--this was last Friday-- and then he said "My sister drank nail polish remover" and I thought it was like a dare, joke thing so I laughed. And then he said "No, it's nothing to laugh about. She's hospitalized. She did it on purpose" And the only thing I could think of was "Oh." So that wasn't at all supportive. I don't know exactly when this happened but it was sometime last week and she was trying to commit suicide. I'm pretty close to Joe and I know he's going through the "I hate life" stage and to add on to that, his sister tried to commit suicide. I haven't been able to talk to him much after that [exams screwed up the schedule]. I see him tomorrow tough and I can probably catch him on AIM tonight. I just don't know what I should say. I want to tell him that I'm always here if he needs to talk to me but then I feel like I shouldn't because I don't want to bring it back up [it's been like 5 days since]. I don't know what to do. But I want to be a good friend and be there for him. (link)
| |
I think you should still talk to him. It may have been 5 days, but to him it probably still feels very recent. Just say that you're sorry for your reaction when he first told you but it was just a bit shocking. Then say what you wrote... that you're always there if he needs to talk or just wants to hang out.

okay so this girl at my school has this sweatshirt & it says "have heart" on it like three time in a row. & i was wondering what it means. & where i could get a shirt/sweatshirt with that on it. thanks :]]] (link)

It's probably for the band "Have Heart." Check them out here...
http://www.myspace.com/haveheart
You may only be able to get merchandise for them at their shows though.

is there anything i can do to make my period start sooner. it was supposed to 3 days ago but is usually random. i have so much swimming starting tomarrow practice and for fun and bday parties with in the next week and also vacation in another country. i go on vacation in 6 days and everything else is before it i NEED it to start soon. how ill do anything?
and my mom says to not do any of it if i start my period. would a tampon help? ive never used one and i dont know how. (link)
| |
There is no way to make it start sooner, but if you have a lot of activities coming up you may want to try using tampons. They are so much more convenient and comfortable... you don't have to worry about leaking as much and they are far less messy. There are directions inside the box on how to use them. Just go slow and start with the smallest ones to get used to them.

Okay im 14/F. Ive only gotton my period one time. that was 5 months ago in December. I know that when you first get it that it takes a while to become regular but this long? is this normal?
(link)
| |
If you are very thin or exercise a lot and are very active you can stop having your period. When I ran cross country in high school I didn't have my period for months.

Last night I was looking through a magazine and was reading an article on how to protect you skin from the sun and stuff. In the article it discribed different tyoes of cancerous moles. I've found two on my body (one on my cheek and one on my hip) and others that might be cancerous too that fit the discription and the picture it showed. I wanted to know if anyone could give me information about this. I haven't told anyone yet and I'm waiting until I get the information I need and If I really think I might have cancer then tell my family and go see a doctor. I was crying alot last night after I started thinking "Do I have cancer?" and didn't get much sleep. I'm really scared and need information. (link)
|
Most people have 10-20 moles on their body and some of them will look unusual. This is completely normal! If you have a lot of moles on your body it's a good idea to keep track of their appearance. If they look different; grow larger; or change in color, outline, or in any other way, you should have them checked out.
I'm sure you are fine! You are young and the majority of people diagnosed with skin cancer are white men over age 50. While family history and sun exposure effect your chances, it is rare that a 15 year old girl would develop any problems. Tell your parents that you are scared because I bet they will make you feel better and tell you a lot of the same things I have. If you are scared and want to make sure you are fine, have your doctor look at them. It's a good habit to get into anyway!
Don't worry! You'll be fine.

ok so I have been cutting for like 2 years.
and I have seen a coucelor, talked to friends, my partens know, I'm on medication for depression and anxiy cause I took these tests and it said I needed it. soo yeah. I've done alot to stop. but nothing seems to help. idno what to do. its like theres no hope left. i just keep cutting more and more, deeper and deeper. soon I might go a little too deep. or do something else stupid. I got into this, and now I can't get out. Its become and adiction. I wish that I could say "oh I haven't done it in 2 weeks" or something. but I haven't done it in one day. I'm afriad of this getting worse. I neep help, but it seems as if ive tried everything, and nothing is working.
help anyone? (link)

After a while cutting becomes an addiction. The brain starts to connect the false sense of relief from bad feelings to the act of cutting, and it craves this relief the next time tension builds. When cutting becomes a compulsive behavior, it can seem impossible to stop... but you can.
You WANT to stop and that is a huge step. You should really look into a support group for Self-Injurers. This site lists several online communities with people just like you. They can support you and give you advice that only someone else in the situation can give.
http://www.crazymeds.org/supportCut.htm
Here are some more tips to avoid hurting yourself...
http://www.kidshealth.org/teen/your_mind/problems/resisting_cutting.html
Another tip... Make a list of things that are important to you... things and people you love, goals you have for the future. Every time you have the urge to cut, look at it. Think of how much you love these people and activities. Think about the things you will miss out on if you aren't around.
Good Luck and feel free to write if you need someone to talk to.

well i wanna date hott guys and stuff and be coool but i cant because im not pretty eboungh i have acne and im tall and stuff but what can make me look prettyer like what can i do to change what i look like by the end of the summer (link)
| |
If you are uncomfortable with your acne, you should go see a dermatologist. They will tell you what skin cleansers and medications to use to get clear skin. (If this isn't an option try Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash... it's amazing!) Having clear skin can make a world of difference to your appearance and confidence. Having confidence is also a big part of getting guys to notice you. Have you ever seen a girl that isn't really pretty but guys always seem to like her anyways? It's because she is confident and fun and people want to be around that. Other than that, it sounds like you have it in the bag! You have height (which women KILL for), so just fix yourself up. Try some new make-up, clothes or a new hair style to boost your self-esteem. The rest will fall in to place.
|
I don't want to brag, I just want to tell the truth. I am thin for my age and height. Every morning, I wake up and go to the bathroom, and my stomach is really sucked in. I like it because I look skinny. Then I eat until it is pushed out to a certain point, then I won't eat for the rest of the day so that my stomach will go back down. I just drink tons of water that just flushes out of my body the next morning, and I eat little things like a box of raisins or a bag of kettle corn, which are only about 100 calories each, so they don't really do anything.
Is this unhealthy or is this normal? Everyone calls me skinny. Half of me says "You are skinny. Don't worry about eating", and the other half says "You are fat and ugly. Look at your stomach. You just ate 2 slices of pizza". I feel guilty after eating large portions.
So is this normal or not, and if it isn't, what advice do you have for me?
Thank you. I'm 17, 5'9", 115 pounds. (link)
|
You are certainly not fat! If you go to this page and put in your height and weight it will show you that you are actually underweight...
http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
It sounds like you have a distorted self image, meaning that you see something completely different from what everyone else sees when you look in the mirror. The fact that you have admitted this about yourself is good, but it also sounds like you are on the path to having an eating disorder. Taking this quiz may give you some perspective...
http://www.something-fishy.org/isf/questionnaire.php
There are many websites for self-help or you may want to talk to a doctor. You can do serious damage to your body when you don't eat enough. Take a look at this page and please take care of yourself...

my name is Rachel and iam 18 years old and my 26 year old siter is bi and i didn't find out until recentally my other 24 year old sister told me and iam under so much shock right now how do i get over the shock of finding out my sister is bi?
How do i help my sister? (link)
| |
Well, when you first find out something like that it's going to be a shock but just keep in mind that nothing has really changed. Your sister is the same person she always was... she just likes girls too. The best thing you can do for her is support her. She is probably scared to tell people because she doesn't want people to look at her differently. If you talk to her about it you might feel better, but don't be too pushy about it... maybe just drop some subtle hints when you are alone like "I just want you to know that I love you and support anything you do with your life." When she's ready, she'll talk to you about it.
