hi i have a promblem........... i always look at the clock at 9:47 maybe not 9 but every time i look it is :47 y do u think this happenes to me...I also have another question i think there is something wrong with me i don't have my period yet and i am 14 and my friends all have theres im in 9th grade and u no its embrassing that i don't have it i wear a 36 A cup so my boobs are not too small but there r still small. do u think this is a promble?

Hey, its pretty weird that whenever you look at the clock it says :47. Maybe its just a coincidence, it depends on what you beleive. Maybe its just your body clock being used to look at the clock when it says :47. Like i always wake up at almost the exact time, its just my body clock. It really all depends on if you beleive in "something else" or if its just a coincidence. Theres nothing wrong with you.
As far as your second question,consider yourself lucky that you dont menstrate yet. Yes, i know a lot of girls sarted earlier, but dont let that both you. Enjoy life without worrying about it because its not a fun thing to deal with lol. Most girls get it by the time they`re 16, when your 16 and if you still dont get it, you could go to a doctor. As far as bra size, no worries. Everyone comes in different shapes and sizes. Your chest will grow, and if it doesnt dont feel self consious. At least you arent extremely fat. Being fat is something controllable, but chest size isnt unless you want surgery. I think once you get ur period, your chest might grow some more. If not, dont worry! Nobody is perfect and some guys dont want girls with a huge chest.
Hope i helped you out..and remember to be confident my friend

ok i was thinking about taking up fast pitchpitcing. ive been practicing amost everyday for a couple of weeks... i play 15&under how do u think i could ever be good enought to be in a game? what could i work on to make me good?

I love softball, its the greatest. Its good you`ve been practicing a lot, keep it up!
When i first started...
-i played catch a lot with my dad and my friend who was just starting as well. We`d throw grounders, pop ups, etc to each other and it really helped. If you have an uncle, dad, anyone who can play catch or something, thats a big plus.
-my dad an i went to the field a lot and he would hit me ground balls and i would practice making my throws.
As far as pitching :
-im a pitcher also and i practiced practiced practiced. Once your consistent with getting the ball in the strike zone, you can work on speed. My dad and a couple coaches worked on my pitching and i owe all my thanks to them
Im also going to go to pro prospects..which is a place near me where instructors can help me on my pitching. Working with pitchers who are experienced always helps. One of my friends whos a varsity pitcher worked with me and it really payed off.
The biggest thing is to keep positive and keep practicing..ur gona be great!

ok so i like this guy and i dont think that he is in my league. i mean we are friends but he is a senior and im a freshman. we are getting to know each other better but he is pretty popular and i dont think he wil ever like me... what should i do?

Hey, continue to get to know him and take things from there. Dont automatically set boundaries. This guy is friends with you which means hes interested in you in some way right? Whether its friends or something more is something he`ll find out for himself. Theres no leagues in high school. No laws saying who hangs out with who or who goes out with who. Hes a senior now which means hes maturing (hopefully) and wont have that kind of mind set that theres only the popular girls to chose from. Hell, even i went out with someone who i considered "out of my league" Thats when i discovered theres really no boundaries. The only boundaries out there are the ones you make ;) Best of luck and i hope i helped out a lil?

Ok..im on a really good volleyball team. in the past like 10 yrs we've won alot of state championships. But the thing is..she over works us. everyday we run a mile..then we go in the gym for about 2 hrs n half and just do volleyball. If we mess up..we do punishments..she yells like never before. We do suicides if we miss a serve or do a error. Its starting to get to me..i want to be perfect..and its stressing me out. How do i stop this?

Hey, I think having high standards and trying your absolute best is great, but overworking yourself and having the idea in your head that you have to be perfect is definately not ok. If you`ve worked with your coach for awhile , you might feel comfortable talking to her. I know i feel more comfortable being honest and straight out with the coaches ive worked with for a few years.If you dont feel comfortable about talking to your coach , maybe someone else on the team would. Im sure your not the only one feeling overwelmed. Just be satisfied with yourself when you know you tried your hardest and gave it your all. I played a tennis match today and felt satisfied with it, while my coach didnt feel satisfied about it. I just brushed that off because I knew i always played my best. Dont be so hard on yourself hun!
Hope i helped out a lil? good luck ..talk to me if u run into any more probs

I'm a 14 year old girl, and I really, REALLY wish I was a guy. If i were a boy, i would be gay. But i think SO much about being a gay guy. I really want to be one! Am i a gender-bender? what can I do? Please help!

No, not necassarily. You like guys, which is good. What makes you want to be a guy? Is it just the clothes?Because if it is then thats fine - just wear mensclothing who cares what people think. Plus it saves you money (u wont have to get a gender change) If you really feel that you want to be a man andd these feelings dont change..then maybe in the future you`ll get ano operation. Until then, stay open minded about everything. Your feelings might change. Hope i helped out a lil?

Ok well I was going out with this girl who i started to really like. Then all of the sudden one day she broke up with me sayin that she liked me and some1 else. She said that she needed to take a break but she liked this othat kid that goes to my school. Im not sure if we broke up cause i did sumthin or cause we go to different schools. But then l8ter that night she asked me if like next summer we could ever go out again.
ooo yeah im 13/m

Hey sounds like this girl is really confused. But why would she ask you if you`d go out with her next summer? Shes pretty much like making reservations for a boyfriend. lol. I wouldnt want to feel like im being put off to the side for later, you know? I would talk to her and ask her to make a choice between you or the other guy, give her a few days, and see what she says. If she choses the other guy, dont feel bad. Its better to know she made a choice instead of toying with the two of you. Best of luck..hope i helped out :)

Hi!
Im the on e who has a problem about a mom paying $5.00 per less than 4 hours.
Im thinking everybody who answer my question really help, so thanks to every single one of you.
But what if im only 14, maybe she think that im only 14 that's why she need me to pay less than.
What should I do help.

Hey age doesnt matter. Besides, 14 is the legal working age. She knows that if you wanted you could get a job somewhere that pays at least minimum wage (which is like $5.15 in NY but its higher in some states) So just because your 14 makes no difference! Your really being underpaid and babysitting isnt easy!
Hope i helped..(again!) lol :)
Take care of business hun...go ahead and talk to her

Hi!!! I need your help, Im baby sitting this boy for almost a year now before her mom paying a fare salary but now I kinda don't like the way she pays me, I let her do that twice but now I don't think it's fare for me her mom paying me $5.00 for at least 4 hours, and I think that is so unfair. The boy is fine but he kinda eat a a lot so I need to fed him, because I dont want him to starve you know.
Im afraid at talkiing to people, because maybe she will get mad.
What should I say to her.
Help me!!
thanks!

Hey... only $5 for 4 hours is really not enough! it should be at least $20 for 4 hours! I know you dont want to get her mad..but your a hard worker and you desserve to be paid fairly! Just talk to her in private and explain how you feel. Say you enjoy babysitting and the kid is behaved well, but you just really feel that you need to be paid more. You have a job now which means you gota "take care of business" as they say. :)
Best of luck! I`m sure once you tell her she`ll realize shes wrong also!
Hope i helped

There's this little boy and he's 12 years old. His mom got in a freak car accident in which a lighting bolt struck a tree and it fell on her car a killed her. And if that wasn't bad enough his step-dad kicked him out. I really want to help him out because he's such a sweet kid and he doesn't deserve this. Any suggestions about what to do? Thanks for any help I'll try my best to give you good rates!

Wow..this is horrible! i know its not always possible for someone to stay with you but see if he can temporarily until he finds a good loving home. Even if you invite him over to play with any younger bros or sisters..or even you! Spend a day with him..make him smile..get his mind of things. Show him your hear for him to talk to...even you extending your hand in friendship might mean the world to this little boy right now.Even if you invite him over to ur house to playy catch, bball, watch tv, maybe fix him a bite to eat..he`ll feel comforted and he`ll appreciate your sympathy. Let him know your always here for him.
hope i helped out..i wish the best of luck to this boy..my prayers r with him!

Mellisa, i am a 13 year old female and i am 5'32 weighing 150 pounds...yes i know im fat! my mom said its just baby fat and when i hit growth spirt i will loose it but its been a long time and its still here! soo how cdan i loose excessive weight fastly?? Also im an 8th grader and all the girls are very clickish. so if you would call a person a loner if they sometimes skip lunch, and recess in order to not be made fun of or be singled out then yea im a loner iduno y people dont like me i try soo hard t obe nice to everyone and fit in but i also dont know who i truly am people tell me to be myself but i dont know who i am! then thier of course is mister perfect! he is flawless, well to me, he is 5'5 brownish blonde hair brown eyes, perfect weight not soo skinny but not fat at all!! perfect family, honest, streight A student and total jock! and im really pretty if i didnt have my weight!! and i dont think he lieks me but i need him because i truly love him, we grew up together and it is love i dont feel this way about any other guy! .....im soo lost and confused please help me! im soo depressed!!

Hey hun..im in the same boat your in, only worse. Im so sorry your going through this. Yeah, im really overweight ..but i still have friends. I think its horrible that you skip lunch and recess just to escape being made fun of. I have a big group of friends who accept me for ME..and thats why i love them all so much!
-I suggest you go to lunch and recess..make some friends! Your 13..so yeah a lot of kids that age are still immature and mean. (there still are some at age 15
I know what it feels like to be teased about your weight..its the most horrible feeling ever.Its ok..when i was 13 i was still seeing who my friends were and where i fit in. You`ll find your place also..if people make fun of you dont take it...cuz they`ll just do it again until you stand up for yourself! If people in your school wont be friends with you just because of your size..then thats bs and they dont deserve you. You deserve a great group of friends like i have!
-As for the guy..if hes your childhood friend then
you should feel comfortable talking to him. Tell him you like him..but you dont want ur friendship ruined. If he doesnt like u back..then hes missing out on a great relationship..but continue to be his friend. Hes there for you when you need him..its better to have him as a friend then as nothing at all! Your going to find a great guy..even i did and im bigger than you are. Dont give up..dont be depressed..just be YOU! (you`ll find out who you really are eventually hun)
until then..LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!!
Hope i helped..let me know if u got anything else on your mind :)

This may sound pretty gross, but I'm 12 and I masterbate. I just use my fingers and I don't finger myself, but I haven't gotten my period yet. Does this mean I did something that'll make it so I don't ever get my period, or will I get it and does masterbating mess my "lower parts" up if I just use my fingers?

Sorry if this is really gross I just really need to know, and Mods please don't delete this I'm very concerned...

Hey no worries! Masturbating has nothing to do with ur period and it wont mess up the time its goiing to come. Trust me,...masturbating doesnt ruin your parts down there. I mean..ive heard of girls who have sex with guys who have a huge package..and they do it hard...but their parts arent messed up! plenty of people have sex and do it hard..but their parts arent messed up. Your made to have intercourse down there...so one little finger wont mess it up! you`ll be fine hun hope i made u feel better...no reason to be concerned!!

I'm 14/f and I've never had a real boyfriend. My only "boyfriend" if you can him that lasted for 1/2 day and I broke up with him because I get all nervous around guys that like me. I get really sweaty and light headed, sometimes my stomach starts to hurt too. Is this a normal reaction to guys that like me? I have also never kissed a boy. What is the average age for first kisses?

Sure its ok ...some people get uptight..but try to relax and breathe!He likes you..you have nothin to worry about! :) Sure ive gotten nervous over guys before..but not quite that nervous..but thats just me. Your only 14 dont worry..plenty of ppl who are 14 havent been kissed yet. My first kiss was at age 12, which is young. a lot of kids get their first kiss between the ages of 12-16...some earlier and some later..its nothing to worry about! dont rush in, because ur first kiss is somethin u`ll never forget and its well worth the wait! So no worries..and when a guy likes you..dont get upight...get happy and flattered! :) You`ll be fine hope i helped!

why do people cut themselves because i have a friend that does and its obvious. my friend always blames it on "the cat" but cat scratches don't make crazy grid patterns.

hey i really dont know why people cut..ive never been one. Ppl who cut are usually depressed and when they cut i hear people say it makes them feel better...like their pain is relewased. Its horrible to get into and if i were you i would really try to get your friend help!
best of luck

My friend liked this guy for a while, so I decided to in a way set them up. He had quite a lot of free time, so they started to hang out with each other often. He really likes to wrestle, and has always asked us to try to trip him or flip him over. My friend decided to try to do it again and again, and she'd always loose. Sometimes she gets hurt, and asked him to stop, but sometimes he just do it again. He puts her down sometimes, and my other friends and I can't tell if he was always joking or not. They spend a lot of time alone, but my friend don't really know him that well. She's a pleasing kind of person, and I read an article in Teen People that made me worry a little. Is it normal for them to be always wrestling? Am I just paranoid?

No i dont think your paranoid..your just concerned about your friend which is great. If your friend asked the guy to stop and he didnt..then I think the issue needs to be addressed. I would talk to your friend about it..maybe then she`ll talk to the guy. If not..maybe you can talk to him. Its cool to wrestle with a wrestler for fun :) but it shouldnt get competitive! Hes experienced in it..and shes not..so it doesnt balance. Tell the guy that maybe. But if this doesnt work..you`ve done all that you can and i wouldnt stress over it.
Hope I helped out a lil?

i have a bf and i really like him and we have been going out for about 9 monthes. but this past day i went over to friends house and she has 1 brother and he is really cute and i like him as well as my bf....so what im saying is what should i do should i break uo with my bf or stay with him!! HELP!!!

Hey, you have something really special with your bf so I think you should stay with him. Its ok to feel attracted to someone else..as long as you dont act on that attraction by cheating. Im sure your bf saw a girl or 2 that hes felt attracted to but its all normal. You have something special with this guy..so unless things arent working out or if you really arent attracted to him..i would stay with your guy. He must really be something cuz you`ve been together for 9 months! :) Besides, going out with your friends brother doesnt mix, trust me. I once liked one of my friends brothers..and just her knowing i liked him made things weird. Hope i helped out? :)

i want to loose 4-up pounds in about 9 days. I really just want a flatter stomach but still wanna loose some punds. What can i do? Need all the help i can get. (Usally rate HIGH)

Hey, 4 lbs in 9 days might be a little much..but if you work hard and eat right you could reach your goal around that time period. Doing lots of crunches for 9 days really should give you noticable results on your stomach. Do about 100 a day (or more if you like) but dont do so much that you hurt yourself or pull a muscle! Eat plenty of veggies and fruits, watch the carbs (im sure you know all this ) and i think you`ll be fine! Besides crunches other excersising would be great:
-running/walking
-bball with friends
-tennis
-softball
-swimming
-soccer
try those or any sport! It will keep you active and busy. You`ll see great results. Good luck hope i helped :)
