first off im 13 in 8th grade and female. well, at school i'm made fun of for my chest size. its kind of embarrsing because i'm just a 32a and many of the 6th and 7th graders are already bigger then me. i do get jealous sometimes but what really bothers me is when the boys pick on me because of it. all my cusins are bigger then me by two cup sizes. i dont want to talk to my mom or anyone about it. i'd feel stupid. i know theres no way to make them grow, but is there a special makeup or something to help them appear to have cleavage? =[ i sound so stupid rar. (link)
don't worry about it... you could get a pushup bra or ipex or something.. wear v neck shirts... bathing suits with padding and like little ruffles on the chest area. but really don;t worry you aren't that small. i'm 16 and 32AA so yeah.. haha


Okay, I am a 29 yr. old mom of a 10 year old daughter. Today I was freaked out when I walked in on her in the bathroom and realized she must have started puberty a long time ago. No period or anything yet but the hair is there. OH MY GOD!! I think this is way too soon, I was 13! I'm so not prepared, I love her and want to talk to her about this maturely, but maturely...shes 10!!!!!!!!My mother never talked to me about these things, when i was 13 I had a ruptured appendix and started my period soon after the surgery, I thought it was from the surgery i was clueless!LOL some advice please?? Thanks (link)
you should talk to her like a normal adult... kids start these things sooner these days and it is better than she learn these things from you rather than rely on info from her friends which will probably not be accurate and scare her. also, if her period starts soon you want her to know these things and be prepared before it happens. if you do not want to talk to her about some stuff you could buy a book that has all the information she needs and give it to her. the average age to start puberty is around 9 so your daughter is right on track, and probably many of her friends are going through the same thing... so don't worry about exposing her too soon. hope i helped and good luck!


Ok I'm going shopping for the first time in two years for clothing (I never grew for two years so I didn't need to buy anything..) but it's spring but it's as hot as summer! I'm going to buy tops but should I buy a sweater? Probably a top but girls these days still wear jeans in the summer plus a sweater and top underneath no matter how hot it is! (link)
buy the basics like.. a zip up hoodie in like grey/blue so it'll go with stuff, maybe a then button up cardigan, a pair of jean capris, a couple shorts, a dark pair of jeans, a jean skirt and another cute skirt... some pretty camis, and your basic fitted t shirts and polos. and for shoes (i don'y know if you meant them when you said clothing) i would buy some cute ballet flats, "tennie" style sneakers, and flipflops. and for accesories (again i don't know if you need them) but i would get some fake pearl style necklace, 1 pair of dangly sparkly earrings for going out, and a pair of normal sutd earrings.. a headband and a new bag for the season.. these are just major ideas because i think thats what you asked for but if you want specifics then just ask again. hope i helped!


Ok well I had this bf, and everything was going great! But for some reason he broke up with me. out of the blue and then treated me pretty poorly. I took me a while to get over it. but now its a little over a year later and he left me a message on myspace saying that hes never stopped loving me?
i'm soo confused by that b/c hes the one that broke up with me!
I was pretty hurt, and don't knwo if i can trust him but then again i liked him a lot and i can't just turn me head. HELP!
(link)
tell him how you feel. be like, "i felt so strongly about you and you just broke things off with me for no reason and left me stranded with no support at all. i don't know if i can take you back if you're gonna keep being so secretive. we need to talk things over." don't completly ignore him though, because there's always the chance he had a very good reason... you don't want to let true love pass you by, but you don't want to be too easy either.


Hello fellow Advicenators! I am getting really annoyed by the smallness of my breasts. I do not look good in several shirts becauase of the fact they are so small. I am only a 30A, and I am 15 years old. I have tried pushup bras, and those bras with the liquid stuff in them. Nothing makes them at least look bigger. Are there any excercises I can do to make them bigger? Any foods? I know that you mostly get breasts when you gain weight, but I tried that and still nothing!

Thanks in advance! (link)
haha i'm basically just like you. the only exercises you can do don't make your boobs bigger but they can build up your pectoral muscles. google for pectoral muscle exercises. also, shirts with v necks and like empire waists (cinchs below chest) can emphasize your chests. you could also try bathing suits with like ruffles on the top. i know they sell them at j crew. plus, you're still young. they can keep growing until your 20s. don't worry :)


i'm watching the johnny cash movie, walk the line. i know he is overdosing on prescription medication, but what kind is it? i can't figure it out. and is everything in this movie true/real about his life? (link)
i don't think they ever specifically tell you, but i can guess either painkiller or antidepressants. he also is an alcoholic in the movie. the movie changes some facts but for the most part is true. johnny cash did have a substance abuse problem.


14/f im turning 15 in less than a month and i dont know what to do for a party, im considering having a party at home and going in the pool or w/e but i really don't know what i want to do. im not gonna invite a lot of people but the guys i do know i dont have a crush on them so i can be comfortable around them, should i invite them or would i have more fun if it was just girl time? (link)
guys and girls:
go in the pool and have a party. put out like tiki lights and have a barbeque theme with like little picnic blankets on the ground... get a chocolate fountain! they're soo cool and everyone loves them and it will be a good conversation piece. and then have some of your best friends stay over your house for the night so you get the best of both worlds.

just girls:
-get your parents/limo to take you to the city and go shopping, out to dinner, maybe even stay overnight in a nearby city hotel.


I was just wondering if anyone knows the name of the song that plays in the opening of World Trade Center. It plays as the guy is driving off to work and u see the twin towers. its a country song and mentions new york city.
thank you. (link)
i believe it is called new york awakes. the soundtrack to the movie is on this website, so maybe you can figure it out from there? http://www.soundtrack.net/soundtracks/database/?id=4377


ok, so like our best friend( like a great friend that i have known 4eva!)) has a really hard time choosing the right guys. she goes out with guys that have like done bad things. we try to help her but theres nothing more we can do. should we just tell her straight up how we feel?
or
keep feeling badfor her??


hElP (link)
tell her how you feel. if she doesn't except it, let her go with the guy... but also tell her to be careful, and that if anything happens, let her know you will also be there for her. some people just need to figure things out for themselves. hope i helped and good luck!


When i straighten my hair in the morning it will be pin straight, but by the end of school it starts to flip and be all wavy. Is there any mooses or serums that anyone recommends to keep hair straight throughout the day? Thanks a bunch =] (link)
i have the same problem! ok so what i do is use straightening shampoo nad conditioner by joh frieda. then i towel dry it so its damp. thenn i comb my hair out with a wide tooth comb. then i put in redken straightening balm while my hair is still damp

http://www.redken.com/products/displayProduct.cfm?p=545

and then i blow it dry straight with a round brush and my hair dryer. and FINALLY i straighten it again with a normal ceramnic straightner. takes FOREVER but it stays straight all day.
hope i helped!

can a yeast infection go away without having to see your doctor and take medication?? i think i might have one. my discharge is all yellow instead of white is that it?? and do u still get your period when u have a yeast infection?? thats like three questions all in one. (link)
yes, i would say you probably have one although i am not sure. if you want to know for sure i would go to see a doctor. there are some natural remedies for yesat infections, that i found on http://www.ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Treat-a-Yeast-Infection&id=470102 .
however, i would just go to the doctor. the medicine you get will be very effective and that way you can be sure that nothing else is wrong. hope i helped.


so i get up at 6:30 and go 2 bed at about 10
soooo i read that if i sleep 2 long it's gonna be harder 2 wake up , cause another person postet a question like this. but i am always so tired in the morning it's really hard 2 get up although i get enough sleep? and i tried 2 sleep more , i went 2 bed at about 8:30 and i got like 11 hours of sleep and i felt SO much better in the morning and it wasn't hard 2 get up at all. so i don't really get it , isn't that way 2 much sleep?
and i don't wanna go 2 bed that early every day. what can i do 2 be less tired cause i am SOOO tired all the time. i'm 14/f by the way (link)
hey, i answered that question before and USUALLY it is harder for people to get up if they sleep a lot longer than they usually do. however, if you feel better and its easier to get up, there is no harm in sleeping to more hours. its all about how you personally feel.


how do i make it REALLY enjoyable for my bf?
please&thanks. (link)
like the person before me said, talk softly and .. be like "follow me" and lead him to the bedroom. have the lights be dim and tell him "i feel like making you feel better than you ever have before tonight" though its your personal decision, try swallowing since guys seem to like this better. have some foreplay before so its not totally random and he is already a little aroused before you go for it. hope i helped.


well i'm 13/f and i way 124 pounds and i'm 5 feet high
is this bad cause i fell kinda fat and my legs are SO BIG i can never wear jeans. any help?
and am i overweight or something? (link)
Your height is 21th percentile
That means you are 21th in height compared to 100 kids your age and sex.


Your weight is 81th percentile
That means you are 81th in weight compared to 100 kids your age and sex.


Your Body Mass Index is 24.3, which is the 91th percentile
That means that your BMI is 91th compared to 100 kids your age and sex.


You have a risk of becoming overweight according to health experts*. Overweight children are likely to become overweight adults with health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease.
The healthy weight range for your height and age is 79 to 116 pounds (36 to 53 kilograms). This range corresponds to a BMI between the 5th and 85th percentiles for your age and sex.
Note: If you are very muscular this calculator is not accurate.


so.. you are not overweight yet but you are close to this. i would try to lose some weight, even though you do not currently have a problem it could progress into one. i got this information from the weight calculator on blubberbuster.com


what song is it that johnny cash says ... i shot a man in reno just to watch him die? (link)
that would be "folsom prison blues".


There's this girl at school who has basically no life. I was writing in my best friend's agenda because she writes in mine. Just stuff like "Hey hoe, I love you!" or something like that. Or just telling stories that make no sense or whatever. Because that's just how me and my best friend are. We're goofy & we joke around a ton.

But anyways, this girl my best friend is friend's with went through my bff's agenda & made comments about like everything I wrote. She called me queer or ugly. My nickname is Christina Curbstomp, so that's basically what I go by. And she was all "curbstomp? that's the gayest thing I've ever heard." Now, this girl isn't too bright, so I'm pretty sure she doesn't even know what the hell it means.

I'm not mad that she's running her mouth. I could honestly care less, I'll let her talk all she wants, but the least she could do is say it to my face. But, I'm not sure she's aware I know. Now, I'd kick her ass, or at least catch her with a good right hook, but I'm not jeopardizing my education over some girl. And I'm definitely not getting arrested. In my town, 16 is the age they can arrest you at. I mean, they can arrest you younger than that, but at younger ages, they can't really do much like they can when you're 16. So, I'm not getting arrested over some girl who knows nothing about me.

I've never even talked to this girl, and I know nothing about her, she knows nothing about me. So, I wanna know what the hell her deal is. Because her shit is kinda making me mad. "Talk shit all you want, but say it to my face." I live by that. And honestly, I'm not anyone to fuck with, so basically..what should I do? I'm not fighting her unless it's absolutely necessary & it's not because even if I do kick her ass, it won't stop her from running her mouth. I could kick her ass forever, but she'd still talk her shit up. So..what am I to do? (link)
she's probabaly jeaslous of the relationship you and your friend have together. although she's annoying, she's harmless, because she's too scared to say anything to your face (at least that's how i interpreted your question) and your best friend isn't going to leave you over her. just keep your cool and be like whatever... you obviously have nothing else better to do with your life than try to break apart my friendship, so good luck with that. you could also confront her about it verbally... haha be like 'keep talking, you're making me famous :)" or something silly like that. if shes still fighting, just ignore her and be like "i'm above this. i honestly don't care what you say" don't do anything physical. you'll sooo regret it. i promise. hope this helps.


Ok so i got a boyfriend yesterday and 5 of my friends like him and before i said yes i talked to them the 4 were all fine but cut but they toild me to do whats right and they were so nice then my bestfriend ii asked her and i told her if you dont want me to il just so no but she was so happy and she was like YEH go for it but she told that she had gotten over him ok and she was like go for it yay then when i said yes she started crying now shes mad at me and i dont want to dump him what should i do =[=[ ?? (link)
talk to her first. ask her why she told you to go for it when she still felt so strongly about him. maybe she'll coem around. if she still has a problem with it, i would break up with him and explain the situation to the boy so he understands why it's ending so fast. remember, in the long run, her friendship will probably last longer than your relationship with this boy. good luck :)
