about

I'm 18 and about to enter my sophomore year of college. Feel free to ask me questions about anything- I'll try to help in the best way possible! :)

advice

ok, i was supposed to get my period the day my boyfriend and i had sex. He didnt use a condom. and kinda cam right as he pulled out. i dont think any got IN me but i know it was on me. could i be pregnant?

Yes. Pulling out isn't effective, so if you didn't use a condom then your chances of being pregnant are higher than if you did use a condom.

Hi.
I've come across yalyta.com. It's a cheap designer clothing online store.
But, none of my friends have ever heard of it.
Has anyone had experience with them? Is it good or bad?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's a scam. The website IS too good to be true. I look around on yahoo, and some people have ordered things from there. One person had good communication with them, and only sent half the payment. She didn't get what she ordered, so she called back and the phone line was disconnected. I wouldn't order anything off there because you're just setting yourself up. =\

any massages i can do to slim my face? foods to avoid?

I'm not sure about massages, but avoid salt. It retains water and causes you to bloat.

do people really have a glow after sex? is it called the afterglow? why? do they get shiny or something? after exercise people do look nicer because theyre done sweating and stuff? i dunno

No, you don't really 'glow', like you glow when you're sweaty. 'Glow' means that they're happy, and people usually are happy/satisfied after they have sex. That's why when a woman is pregnant, somebody says 'You're glowing!'. It's because they look happy.

14/f

this is two questions in one..

i have a bad right knee, it hurts on the left side of my kneecap, like the inside of the knee. it hurts when i lock my knee out, and it hurts a lot more when i bend my knee.
first question:
WHAT KNEE BRACE SHOULD I TRY?

it started hurting about three weeks ago. i told my mom and dad that i needed to get it looked at, but they said that i'll be fine. you see, i'm in cheerleading, volleyball, softball, and track. it's not that i get hurt a lot, it's just that something differnt hurts at each practice. but this knee thing, it's been a constant pain, even when i'm not tumbling, running, jumping, ect. so when i'm just laying in bed, it hurts.
second question:
HOW DO I GET MY PARENTS TO LET ME GO TO THE DOCTOR?

thanks, and sorry if it's confusing.

You need to see a doctor to see what's wrong. I know from experience, I have had problems with my knee. I had to get surgery last spring because of my knee. You should really get it checked out. It started to hurt me again, so I went back to the doctor and it turns out I need another surgery. I wouldn't have even known if I didn't go to the doctor. He'll tell you what brace that you need, I use a Don Joy brace, but I don't know if we even have the same knee conditions, so your best bet is to get a recommendation from your doctor.

14/f i start high school in august. i wanna try out for the freshman soccer team, so what do i need to work on and what do i need to be able to do by the time tryouts begin? how long is the usual soccer practice, and what do you have to do? how many miles would a girls' freshman team have to run each day?

You should definately start running. Maybe running 30 minutes a day. When I was trying out freshman year, we didn't have to run around the track, but we had to do perimiters around the whole area around the schools, around the football, fieldhockey, etc. fields. I ran all summer, so it was really beneficial. Soccer practices usually run about 2 hours approx. That's how long mine are running this year. You're probably going to do a lot of drills. You'll want to work on your ball handling. Practicing dribbling around your yard. Even when you're sitting inside, just pass the ball back and forth in between two of your feet while you're watching TV. Try to do it without looking. I'm not really sure how many miles you'll be able to run, because we never ran on a track, but more of a certain amount of time. When we do team runs they're usually about 15-20 minutes. So make sure that you can run that amount without stopping, atleast. Good luck with your tryouts.

Okay, I don`t play any sports & I`m not the most athletic person. My parents really want me to do something & so do I, but there`s nothing fun that I`d think I`d be interested in doing. So, is there anything else, like besides sports that I could do? (Acting classes, etc.)

Learn and instrument. Once you get the hang of it, it's really fun. I'm learning guitar right now, and it really makes me determined to play some of my favorite songs, so I don't quit.

If you're old enough, you can also get a job. Not only is it something that takes up your time after school, but you also get some extra cash. If you're not old enough, try babysitting.

Work out! Even if you're not interested in any of the sports, working out can relieve a lot of stress and it's good to be in shape. You actually feel happier because you're happier about yourself. It's a good way to let out anger, too! =)

How do you feel pretty when you're completely different from everyone else?

I can't help but pick my flaws out. I'm not fair skinned or have that off the beach tan. I have big eyes but not big eyelids. My eyebrows are small. My hair is dark brown as well as my eyes.

Everyone seems so attractive to blondes, big eyes, colored eyes.. tans.. just so pretty..

and I feel like a child because I look different :( i don't know how to think differently.. I've been told I'm attractive.. but there's so many people that look similar and I feel out of the loop. But then again, I don't care much to be in it. I just feel like I'm there and unworthy to be a model.

I look different from everyone, too. When I was younger, I felt the SAME way! I felt like just because I wasn't blonde haired and blue eyed, that I wasn't pretty. After awhile, I learned to embrace my beauty. It's good to look different. I actually LOVE looking different than everybody else, (I'm half pacific islander/half white, and practically everyone at my school is white). I'm sure that people envy that you have different looks. You'll stand out. People would probably kill for your beach tan, or your big eyes. It's normal to pick out your own flaws, EVERYBODY does it. Everybody is self concious about something about themselves, so don't let it bring you down! Wear makeup to bring out your features. From the details you gave me, it sounds like you're gorgeous! To bring out your big brown eyes, even though you don't have to, get a mascara that makes your eyelashes look really long. I recommend the Telescopic & the Volume Shocking mascara. Wear bold eyeshadow/eyeliner to compliment your eyes: check out this site: http://sheknows.com/about/look/2290.htm

Learn to love & enjoy that you look different from everybody else. Even though I already look different, I look at other girls that look different and wish I had their features! Be happy, you're beautiful!

ok so my parents have never given me the birds and bees talk so the only thing in that nation i no of is sex and how to become pregnant but lately i have been having this weird feeling lik in my vagina area where i can feel my heart beat WAT IN THE WORLD IS IT?!?!?

It's normal, don't worry. This simply means that you're getting turned on. Blood is rushing to that area. When a guy gets turned on, blood rushes to his penis. The same thing happens to a girl. This happens to every girl, so don't worry! =)

What's your favorite makeup product?

Any pictures too?

I want to find something new to try.

I LOVE mascara. I don't know where I'd be without it.

I recommend these two:

http://blah.burrp.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/mascara.jpg


I usually use the white part of the Volume Shocking mascara, and then use the Telescopic mascara over it. Before I put on the mascara, I curl my eyelashes with an eyelash curler. It makes my eyelashes look mad long.

ok so last night was the first time i drank w/ my friends and we did a few shots. But nothing happen and we didnt get drunk or n e thing but then my other friend found out and got really mad...what should i do?

This happened to two of my friends too. My friend got drunk for the first time, and her friend was so mad at her. Also, my other friend started to hook up with some guys, not even like she was a slut, and her friend never made out with a guy and she always got so mad at her. I personally think it's kind of stupid. It is good that she's looking after you .. but she can't control your life. If you weren't drinking to the point where you were absolutely hammered and having sex with 5 different guys in the same night, she shouldn't be mad. You were experimenting, and it's absolutely normal as a teen. She probably just feels you did something that she never thought would happen, and she's still clinging on to her childhood, and it's FINE. Just let her cool off, and she'll get over it. You can't really even say anything either. She'll just have to cool off on her own.

I've asked about 6 of my friends to go to the movies with me. REJECTED! all busy.. so

Well, do you go see a movie ALONE?

i feel little weird.. because I always see someone with at least 2 people with them.

It would be good if you went to the movies alone, being able to prove to yourself that you don't need somebody with you & it's not holding you back from doing something that you want to do. I've seen people go to the movies by themselves. A good idea would be to go with your mom or dad though! Have a date with one of your parents, time to bond. =)

im really confused about those pictures of tyra banks on how she's fat, is that true? because when i see her on TV she's skinny. thanks

Tyra Banks isn't even fat. The average weight in our society is basically OBESE in Hollywood. Since she isn't a model anymore, she isn't worrying as much about what she eats and isn't so strict on her diets. In those pictures that were in all of the gossip magazines, it's easy to take a bad picture of somebody and make them look bigger than they are, and they can also edit pictures to make her look bigger than she really is. Tyra Banks isn't fat, and I don't even understand why it matters anyways.

this is kinda weird but are there aby things like around the house that people can use to masterbate with??


P>S this isnt for me but a friend needs some advice

okay.
my friend recently had sex
for the first time.
without a condom. .
but he claims he didnt cum in her?

idk.
shes freaked as hell
and is worried she might be pregnant.


is there a chance she could be?
i think so, but i figured i'd get a second opinion.
thank you (:

Yes, she can be pregnant. If there was no form of contraception, then she's a LOT more likely to be pregnant. "Pulling out" is not effective, considering there's pre-cum and you can get pregnant from that.

okay. i am very young and i think i have masturabted before. it hurt and i didnt make any noise. didi really masturbate, or was i just touching myself? i have 2 other ones
1)is masturbation a sin?
2)ami still a virgin if i masturbate?
] thanks!
---Simone411----

Masturbating and touching yourself are kind of the same thing. If you were doing it for awhile at that time, then I'd say that you were masturbating. But if you just 'stuck a finger up there' or were just feeling around, then I'd consider that touching yourself. It's fine to want to explore.

1) Masturbation, in my eyes, is not a sin. It's actually good for you. It relieves stress and tension. Although, some religions consider it a sin.

2) Yes, you are still a virgin if you masturbate. The only way you can lose your virginity would be if a boy inserted his penis inside of your vagina.
