Its my first time using one and well Im confused. When I put it in is the plastic supposed to come off? Does it feel weird? Can I take a shower with it in? And how long do I have to wait until I change it? Thanks!!
yes the plastic does come off. it might feel weird your first time. (usually it will only feel weird if you put it in wrong, have it in too far, or if its not in enough). yes, you can take a shower with it in. you can swim, bathe, run, play sports, dance, sit, lay, stand, crawl, jump, jog. you can do just about whatever you want while wearing a tampon. as far as changing it goes- well that all depends on the size of the tampon and the flow of your period. you should change it atleast every four to six hours. if your flow is heavier you may need to change it sooner. but like i said that all depends on your flow and the size of the tampon.
if you are confused about anything, read the pamphlet in the box. it will give you answer to most commonly asked questions, tell you how to insert it, tell you when to change it, tell you what size tampon will be good for your flow, tells you the risk of leaving them in too long, tells you EVERYTHING you will need/want to know.

I really want to get my fake nails taken off. Does anyone know how you can remove them other than chipping them off and going to the nail place (not an option as of this moment)?
pour some nail polish remover in a bowl or in the sink and soak your hands/nails in it for a while. perferably acetone. acetone will wokr better but non actone will work also, just not as quickly. it will soften the acrylic and after a while of soaking it will become peelable.
if you dont want to do that, then try taking one of your other nails or a pin or some thing along those lines and go under neath the nail and try lifting them off. starting on the side at the bottom (near cuticles) of the nail is usually easiest. but if you find a way that you think is easier then go on right ahead and do it. (some people might think this is a painful way of taking them off, i how ever have never had any troubles doing it this way. it was just a suggestion though.)

Hi, i just turned 18 and i live in Pennsylvania. im not really sure wut changes take place according to law such as having to get my own health insurance and wut not. can anyone explain more to me?
all depends on your situation. if you are still attending some sort of schooling, then you can still be on your parents health insurance. if you are an independent 18 yr old and are own you own, not attending school, and have a job, you need to your own health insurance. hope this helps.

Ok, I'm 15/f and I was with this guy for 2 months. Well he starting trying to pressure me to have sex with him. And I know this probably sounds stupid but I really wasn't ready to go that far. I know that a lot of other girls have had sex but I just wasn't ready for it yet. So anyway one night we were hanging out and he started to ask me to have sex with him again. I said no and I tried to explain why and make him understand. Well he seemed to understand and I thought that everything was ok. He brought me a drink of water and then I started to feel weird. The next thing I know I'm waking up next to him and now I'm pregnant. My friend said that he probably gave me a drug or something so I would have sex with him. I really don't know and I don't know what to do now. Did he rape me? And what should I do about the pregnancy?
yes honey, he raped you. it is known as date rape. he most likely gave you a datre rape drug. you need to consult your parents and le tthem know what happened. you should also call the cops and press charges against him. you need to file a report on him. one thing you should also do is go get tested for the drug he drugged you with. so if you really do go through with pressing charges and you will be able to take this to the courts, then you will have evidence that you had been drugged. also you might want to get checked for std's while your at all of this. who knows what he could of had. as far as what you should do with the baby, that is 100% your decision. sit down and discuss it with your parents and let them know what you want to do. let them know that you need them there to help support your decision. if you are against abortion, and you arent ready to be a mother, give him/her up for adoption. if you still want to have the baby around, but not have the legal custody of the child, then maybe you could talk to your parents about adopting him/her. as the mother of the child, you can have the say as to who you wish to give him/her up to. if you go to an adoption agency and tell them you wish to meet with the people or family that is going to adopt them, then you have that right. (atleast in some places you are granted that right). so you might want to check into that. you can abort the baby, carry him/her through nine months of pregnancy then give him/her up for adoption, or you can carry him/her through nine months of pregnancy and keep him/her, raise him/her, and bring him/her up. if you decide to keep the baby, maybe your parents could help support you and the baby. also try to get child support off of the father and his family. because he is not 18 yet, the court will either rule his parents to pay for him until he is 18, or the will rule him that he has to get a job to support you. if they rule that he will have to get a job, they will give him so much time to find one and start working. if he fails to comply with any rulings the judge makes, he can be locked up for it. it is possible that he will not be locked up for raping you. if this happens he will be sent to sex counseling where he will have to put in so many hours. and yes, this happens. i have seen it before with one of my friends. just thought to let you know ahead of time that this sort of thing could happen. it is a possibilty that it may happen, not a guarentee.
babe, i am sorry you had to be put through all of this. it is a terrible thing to go through. bt it happens to alot of girls. most arent as brave as others. most girls think that it was something they did and that it wasnt that big of a deal. others may be just too afraid to say something. and they end up letting the guy get away with it. just be brave and stay strong for yourself. you can do this. and when you do, will will feel better about this, knowing that you will have done something about it.
becuase this has happened to you, it will have an affect on your life from now on. but just know, that all guys arent as big of assholes as others. and that not all guys disrespect a girl like that. so you may feel uncomfortable around guys for a while and know that it is ok to feel that way and that it is understandable, but also know on that same aspect, that guy most likely isnt an asshole like the other guy. it may be hard for you to open up and get close to any new guy you are trying to or wanting to have a relationship from here on out. but i wish you all the best of luck with this. and i hope that this helps somewhat and in some ways. once again im sorry.
Stay strong, sweetie.

I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!i am in love w/ this guy named Travis...we have been "Friends With Benefits" 4 quite a while now...he knows that i luv him...We say "I Love U" EVERYTIME that we r on the fone together...he treats me like a PRINCESS...last nite he told me that i was like a sister 2 him.....i was CRUSHED....i cried myself 2 sleep.....he is my EVERYTHING!!!!!....i dunno what 2 do....i feel like giving up on EVERYTHING...including life....I NEED ANYBODIES HELP!!!!!!
*~*~*~*Emmy*~*~*~*
hmm... mkay. you are freinds with benefnits but yet he thinks of you as a sister. that is just wrong. that would be like him saying he is prokin his sister. ewww... you need to find out what he really thinks of you. like if he really thinks of you like a sister to him, then the friends with benefits really needs to go.
but i know what that feels like to be "like a sister" to someone. and it hurts at the time if you really like the person, but it goes away. just try to keep your cool with him and dont change how you act around him now because your a sister like figure. you should keep the whole friends relationship together just as it was the whole time with him, only minus the benefits. however, if both of you are still comfortable (which i can almost guarentee he is fine with it), with having your benefits, then go ahead and do whatever it is you want to do. if you both still want to have sex and do stuff with each other, then more power to you. but just as long as you are both into it. and if your not and he doesnt get why, just tell him what you think about it... how being friends with benefits just doesnt seem right to you if your a sisterly figure to him. if he doesnt understand that then he is just being an ass and just wants a piece of ass.
hope this helps. good luck and have fun!

every 30 days your rating gets changed. so your rating went up or down. most likely it has went down a little since before. just back on the site more often and answer some more questions with that good advice you give.

Yeah.. I was at a 'get together' with a group of friends.. and we decided to play a game of some sort involving the opposite sex.. we were choosing which game.. and "Honey if you love me, smile" came up.. except I have no idea what that is.. ofcourse we chose a different game.. but for future reference.. how do you play.
it is a game where two people are sitting looking at each other. and if you like/love the person your lookin at then you smile. but the object is to get someone real random you dont like to be the one infront of you. you sit there he/she does stuff to try and get you to love as they say the line : honey if you love me, smile. there objective is to get you to smile while yours is to keep a straight face. try to keep a straight face whoile replying with the line: honey, i am sorry i dont love you.
hope this made sense and helps.

what is a papsmhere if i even spelled it right!!!!!!!!!!!
its a papsmear. and it is an exam given by a gyno. it is just to check and make sure everything is ok with a female. it tests to make sure you dont have any abnormalities such as cervical cancer. it is such a sample of cell that they get from the cervics. they get the sample and test it. doesnt take long to have done... less than a minute for your sample. you should get this exam atleast once a year. Especially if you are sexually active. hope this answers you question enough.

Hi! Ok, This may seem weird, but I discovered that my bf doesn't like the smell/taste of mint. So I was wondering what type of non-mint things can I use to freshen my breath? Like candy or something... Please help. Thanx!
well you could try something cinnamin. like altoids, gum, liquid ice, ice breakers, flash strips. there are lots of other flavors of mints/candies. choose one you like better or that he likes better.

It drives me insane that he doesn't like me. I love him so much, no matter what I say. Even when we argue and I say I hate him. Deep down, I still love him. I wish these feelings would go away, I really do. I feel like I'm too young, and I don't really know what love truly is. But all I think about is him. I can never get him off my mind. Every song I hear reminds me of him. I just can't take the fact that he doesn't like me, and knowing that I can't have him makes me want him more. And just whenever he talks to other girls, it makes me jealous that it isn't me he's talking to. I try to make it stop, but I can't. I don't even want to like him because I know it will never happen. Which kills me. People say it's just a crush. But a crush isn't like this, I have had many crushes before and this is NOTHING like those. I care about him more than I do myself. Which is pretty bad. But, it's the truth. I love him so much. I know that's what it is. Just whenever he gets online I get so happy, whether I am talking to him or not. I wish I could let go of all of it. I can't say that I wish I never met him, because then I wouldn't be experiencing what love really is. But I am so fucking scared to get hurt by him. Just by him saying he didn't like me pretty much killed me. I just want to cry every night at the fact he isn't mine. I would give almost anything to have him. It's so hard. I don't know what to do. I don't even know why I try so hard to make him like me, it's not like it works. And it makes me so mad. I wish I could just do something that would make him at least just like me, maybe that could lead to more things. I want, so bad, just to tell him how I really feel. But it's not any other guy. It's him. He is better then anyone else, and it's harder with him. I could tell anyone else that I like them, but not him. I have before. But things have changed since then. I am so confused. Is this what I think it is?
i am in a similar situation right now. i cant have the person i want and it will prolly never happen. the difference between my situation and yours-- is that me and him talk (all the time), we are friends(actually pretty good ones too), and even though we both like each other in some ways, it will never end up us together. i know how hard it can be to want to be want someone that you cant have. and trust me, it does usually always seem to make it feel like you want them even more because of that fact. but babe, the truth is.. you cant make him like you. im sorry. it isnt that simple. the only advice i can give you is to just be friends with him. atleast you'll have him in your life as a friend, rather than not having him at all. i know it may be hard to do, but in the end it will be worth it.
im sry and i hope it works out for you. i apologize for my answer, it wasnt very helpful. but i tried. i said what i thought and there ya have it. and i also hope that you guys can become good friends and stay that way.
and about the crying every night over him, i know what it is like. and trust me, it will get better. just try and think of some of the good things about you and him. like something he said that you thought was great, or something he did that you just couldnt help but notice, or something you two did. something good will help take away the crying. there is a saying that no guy is worth your tears, and the one who is will never make you cry. always remember that (even though i personally dont believe that one, but hey o well).
just try and cheer up babe. someone else, somedy will come along and sweep you off your feet. and you will have already known what love feels like and if this guy will be worth the rest of your life. atleast you can say you have experienced love already in life.
once again.... good luck with everything and hope everything goes well.

ok, i was just looking at my fingernails and i noticed on a few i have white spots.I seem to always have them.What are they?Is there any way to prevent them?
its lack of minerals and such in your body. it is most likely the lack of calicum. but dont worry. alot of people have them little white spots. so just drink more milk and eat a little more dairy products. that should help.

this may be a dumb question but how do you bleach your hair??
plez help ill rate
pour a bottle of clorox on your hair.
^^ that was a joke
yu have to buy a bleachin kit. you can get them at lots of different stores. i would say you could go to a sally beauty supply near you but you need to have a card to buy chemicals. you need to show proof of cosmetology skills to buy any chemicals there.

i want to dye my hair out of a box as opposed to getting it done professionally. is this a bad idea?
no. its a lot cheaper that way. as long as you follow the instructions and make sure you cover your whole head with it then it will be fine.
