I've been using the crest whitestrips for about 2 days now and I was wondering if you like swallow does the bleach come off? and I don't know if I have swallowed most of the bleach, because everytime there was saliva in my mouth I'd lick my teeth and swallow. Also, what happens if you DO swallow the bleach on accident?
Thanks, much.

The bleach was made for your mouth, so it's not gonna harm you. Try not to lick your teeth much. It doesn't taste too good, plus you want the bleach on to clean your teeth. =)

Hey well i have a problem, this guy that i really liked my freshman year(know a senior). He lives with his girlfriend but his girlfriend, but she doesnt give him any sex and he comes to me. How would i know if he is using me or not? Please let me know i am desperate to know, he tells me he loves me and i dont know if i should believe him because he says he says that he will never hurt me. I dont know if he is just using me for sex or not. i need help. i really like him and i like when i have sex with him too but i dont know.

He already has a girlfriend, and she doesn't have sex with him. I think that's a definite sign he's using you. He's probably only being nice to you so you continue giving him what he wants. That's not right though. He shouldn't be going behind his girlfriend's back just because she isn't doing everything he wants. I don't think you should be having sex with him anymore. you don't deserve to be used like that, really you don't. If he loved you he would dump his girlfriend for you, but you don't see that happening do you? I really think he'a just using you and you should blow him off. He can use some other girl if she doesn't care, but if you're concerned you should stop. Next time he's asking for sex, tell him it's done and walk off. If he gets mad at you, that's a definite sign he was using you. Watch his actions. I don't know how you feel, but if you're feeling extra revengeful you could tell his girlfriend. He would most likely be dumped. But hey, that's just an option. Do what you feel comfortable doing. =)

Do you know of any way to get great abs and fast(male)???

signed,
dude

-work out in a gym with barbells
-do crunches and sit-ups every day
-jog or run
-don't eat a lot of fattening foods or all the work you did will be for nothing because weight could be gained over the muscle.

my boyfriend broke up with me 2 weeks ago and we got back together a couple of ays ago. I love him more than anything and I don't want to mess things up this time. When he broke up with me he didn't really give an explanation why he did it. And I couldn't get him to tell me, he would just say, "It's hard to explain." He had told me he loved me and we were about to do certain "things" but i don't know if he still wants to do those "things" So my question is do you think he still loves me? Also do you think he still wanys to do those "things". And how should I bring the subject up with him? Thanks a ton! Please help...

If he loved you, then why did he break up with you? If he wants to do those "things", then he will. I think the best way to approach the subject would be sometime when you are having a fun time. When you are laughing and talking, wait for a time where it's quiet. Say "Hey, I have something I want to ask you..." Don't be afraid! He is going out with you so he shouldn't mind to talk about it. Look for a straight answer. In a relationship trust is a really important thing. If you don't have trust something sooner or later is going to ruin the relationship. This is why it's important you two are always honest with each other. You might want to ask why it was "hard to explain." If he loved you there would be no reason for him to let you go. Talk this over with him. If he won't tell you, you can assume something is up. He's either going to tell you, or that trust is going to break.

my friend alyssa was seeing this guy ryan but they broke up bc she cheated on him. shes in love with this new guy tai they went out brok eup but shes still hooked on him. alyssa doesnt liek ryan any more and says she doesnt care if her friends like him but i feel likeid be betraying her if i did.. me and ryan have been talkin for a few weeks now. just online and on the phone and were making plans to hang out & stuff.. hes such a great guy and has the best personality. do you think its wrong that ryan & i are hanging out and talking??? me and alyssa have been friends for 4 years but she says its ok..i think shes too wrapped up with tai right now but.. i dont want to ruin our friendship at all... what do you advise..??

-kristi

Well just to make sure, ask Alyssa one more time if it's really ok if you do that. If she still gives you a yes, go ahead. She's busy with Tai right now so it looks like she's not worried about Ryan right now. Eveything should be fine, unless Alyssa gets upset when you hang out with Ryan. Then that would be the time to talk it over with her and Ryan. You would need to settle everything so everyone is happy with what's going on. It sounds like Alyssa doesn't mind though, so give Ryan a chance. Your being a good friend for not trying to hurt her, and I think that's really nice of you. =)

my boyfriend of 7 months and i just broke up a couple of a days ago, and i broke up with him because he was rude, we fight all the time its just like were abusive to eachother, but i love him so much and we both want eachother back but we said we will take a break, but i am dieng without him you have no idea i miss him so much, i wanna kiss a diffrent guy (ive had him in mind for a while) but im so scared if my ex finds out and never wants to get back with me what should i do i love my ex but im lonely and want someone for now so i wanna kiss the diffrent guy should i?

Well you're taking a break so you can kiss the other guy. If your ex finds out he might not want to get back with you, unless he's chosen to see someone else too. Personally I don't think you should get back with your ex if you want to kiss another guy. You should only get back with your ex if he's the only one you want. Think about what you want to do for this situation. =)

How can you tell when someone doesn't love you anymore? He gives me affection only when I ask for it, but he doesn't give it himself anymore. He gets mad at me a lot. We've been together for almost a decade. I'm still in love, but how can I know for sure if he loves me anymore? He says he does but I don't think he's telling me the truth. He makes me feel like I'm just in his way. I know it's probably time to move on, but I want this to work because we have a child together. Thanks for help in advance.

It's possible there's something else in his life that's causing a disruption in your relationship. I think the best way to find out what's going on is to talk to him. Tell him you're feelings on this and ask him to explain. He loves you, he is going to tell you the truth. After you find out what's the cause you two can discuss how to fix it. I want this to work out for you because you already have a child. A child needs a mother and father, so I really hope you can work it out. Even if he doesn't sound sincere, he truly does love you. Whatever your relationship comes to, I hope for the best. I believe you can make it work if you get to the root of the problem and help to fix it. =)

Do you neciserrily have to think a guy is cute to like them? Like can you be attracted to just there personality and still have a crush on them?

Yeah, definetley. It's actually a really good thing to like guys more for personality than just looks. A lot of girls are like "Oh he's so hott I want him!" and later find out the guy is a jerk. That's why personality is always a great thing to go for in a guy. =)

ok my bf josh is sweet but he always says that he wants to kick someones a**. and it bothers me. so how can i tell him how i feel?? also please answer this question my best friend brianna has 2 brothers named brian and david and i have known david since kindergarden and i think i like him. so my question is how can i tell my friend brianna that i like her brother david and tell my bf too. p.s. tell it to me straight and i rate high.

1~ Next time he says it, take him aside and quietly tell him it's bothering you. You shouldn't feel bad about saying it to him, it's how you feel. He should respect how you feel about this and stop at least when you are around.

2~ In a room with privacy, go up to Brianna and let her know you have feelings for her brother. She will probably tell him if you don't request her to keep it a secret. It's your choice what you want to do. Seriously, if you tell your bf he's gonna be upset and might very well dump you. It's not fair to your bf you like someone else, so you are in a situation where you have to choose one or the other. Do you like your bf or David more? You need to thnik this through. If you like your bf more, I wouldn't tell Brianna that you like David. The word could get out and your bf might hear it. If you decide you like David more, tell yopur bf. He will be crushed but it's definetley for the good of you and him. Good luck with all this and I hope you end up happy with your choice. =)

me and my best friend (hes a guy) went out b4...but now we are best friends. but i think i still like him...but im not sure. and i dont think he likes me but it always seems like hes flirting w/ me but it could be cuz we r friends...im confused please help.

It's hard to tell with best friends. The only way to find out is to tell him how you feel. Don't be shy, just go for it. If he has a good reaction, ask him out. If his reaction isn't so good, go back to being a good friend. You can still build on the friendship. Maybe it will eventually lead to something more. =)

im goijg to my first major dance and i dont know how tobooty dance. everyone tells e that i dont have to but i wanna learn but nonei s wiling to teacch me but i try in front of my mirrow but i never get any better at it have any advice?

Find someone who is willing to teach how to do it right or you will probably never learn. If you can't get it right, you'll have to forget about it. Keep looking for someone to help. Practicing still won't hurt.

My boyfriend wants to go farther than i want to go and ya but i rele like him and hes soo cute and the only reason he wants to is because his brother makes fun of him and yay so should i have sex with him

You say you don't want to have sex yet, so don't. Just because your boyfriend wants to doesn't mean you have to. You need to let him know he shouldn't be pressured to do things because his brother is making fun of him. You should only have sex when you feel like you are ready.

Ok i know this guy online and he thinks im rich .I met him because he made this site called y terror and i went to it and ever since then we became good friends.Well to get to the point he is selling ALL his sites that he worked so hard @ to get money for a car and i dont even think he is using it for a car so i LIED i know i feel really bad now .. and i said i would give him the 800 dollors so he wouldnt have to sale his site now he thinks since i promised him i would send him money from western union that he will get it but the truth is when he goes the money wont be there because i dont have it either and when i lied and said ill give it to him he said

Thank you so much your really nice my mom kicked me out ( he is only 17 ) and i live in my buddy's attic and eat mac and cheese every night and then he said now i wont have to eat mac and cheese every night


i really want to be his friend but i cant tell him im not giving him the money so what do i do ??

p.s. he told my sister he wanted to go out with me

Aww hun I'm really sorry about this. But you've gotta do the right thing. He's going to find out sooner or later you're not giving him the money. The sooner you tell him, the better. He's going to be crushed, but you can't change anything now that it's done. If he's a true friend he won't hate you for lying and not giving him the money. He will be sad but he will accept the truth. If he can't deal with it, maybe you should let loose on the friendship until he can handle it (if he ever forgives you.) He sounds like a really nice guy though, so I think you've got hope. I mean he wanted to go out with you, so he must see you for your good qualities.

I always had this thing to make my boyfriend jealous but tonight it came back at me, and I had already felt bad because of him. On friday he had went ice skating but I was in Disney and I heard from his ex- & one of my close friends he was flirting and touching other girls ass's. That got me pisst because he isn't even the player type and he doesn't even touch my ass [ not that he hasn't tried ]. I've been with him 6 weeks.. my longest relationship I`m 13 and hes 12.. we have gone out before a LONG time ago. What's wrong, also I always get pisst at him.. and when I go to dump him I hesitate then can't do it!! Please give me advice I need it quick! xxOo

Before you even think about dumping him, talk to him about what he did. Give him a chance to tell you his own side of the story. If he swears he didn't do it, you're gonna have to come to a decision. Who do you trust more: your close friends or him? If after doing all this you think he's guilty, dump him. You are trying to hold on to him but hun if he's doing that you've got to let go. Go up to him and calmly say "I think we should just be friends.", or wahtever you want to say. I think that since you're always getting mad at him, maybe he's not exactly Mr. Right. Don't worry, really, if he's flirting with other girls I don't think he'll be too crushed.

Last night I did my washing but I was really tired so I just dumped it all in without looking to see what went in. Then when I checked this morning, I had found that I had slipped a fur coat into the mix.

Things happen and bada bing bada boom,

The coat feel apart,

Well I'm not that upset about the coat falling apart (a bit but not much) but now all my other clothes that went in that wash have fur all over them. I have tried shaking them off but they are still covered- what would be the best way to get all the fur off easily?

Get a lint roller and roll it over all the clothes. If you don't have one, get a bunch if tape. Wrap it around your hand and stick it to the clothes. The fur will then stick to the tape. It won't take long at all to get all the fur off. I'm sorry about your fur coat, maybe you can get a new one.
