about

I'm Christina, and I'm 27. I tend to be brutally honest when I give advice or an opinion. I don't tell people what they want to hear but rather what they need to hear. They don't always appreciate it at first, but I usually get a thank you in the end.

I have 15 tattoos, and 8 piercings. I'm married and just gave birth to a baby boy in May. I'm currently a SAHM so you can find me taking care of my son and binge-watching television while he naps.

advice

I have verizon. My contract expires in mid-August, and I really want my new phone to have a keyboard. I've been texting non-stop lately and i need a keyboard to help the process along haha. :)

So, my questions:
-What phones do you suggest?
-Does anyone have the Glyde/heard anything positive/negative about it?
*It helps if you know about the phone yourslef, and you don't just look up information online, because I already did that. Thanks. :)

My friend has the En-V and so does my aunt, and they both really like it. They're not really huge on texting, but it does help for when they do. I have Virgin Mobile, BUT my phone has a keyboard.

I'd love to be on Verizon though. If anything, I'd recommend the En-V, the Voyager or anything along those lines. It's Verizon, I'm sure you won't be dis-satisfied.

hello, is there any way i could get a job at 13 years old?

Not a real one like at a store or anything.

The only jobs you could really do is babysitting, or doing extra chores around the house. That's about it though. If you want a job working at a supermarket or whatever, you'll have to wait until you're 15 or 16.

well ive been going out with this guy for 6 days.
But we like eachother and he met my parents, who think hes a really nice and great guy.
so we talk to eachother a lot. I hung out with him yesterday. And i really want for him to kiss me. Please dont say hes not a good boyfriend for not kissing me yet, i mean its only been 6 days.

So what are some ways i can either
1)flirt with him to make him understand.
2) Make him realize i want to kiss him/ have him kiss me.
3) Have him kiss me.

Thanks in advance.
-Arie(:

Personally, you should make the first move. If you really want him to kiss you, then kiss him. He'll get it after that.

But did you ever think that maybe he's just trying to respect you or your parents, or that he's shy and is nervous to make a move? This is nothing a little communication won't fix. :)

Where can I get the pill? Can I get it at a pharmacy or do I have to have it prescribed? Do you have to be a certain age to buy it? I'm turning 18 next month, so could I just go to my doctor by myself and buy it, or do I have to tell my parents? Because I would really love to keep it from my parents. It'd be kind of awkward to ask them. Also, about how expensive is The Pill?

You can get it at Planned Parenthood.

my contract is up for my cell phone at the end of april.
i am thinking of getting the red blackberry pearl.
is this a good phone?
i just need an opinion on whether or not i should buy it.
thankss :]

My brother just got a BlackJack, and although it's not a BlackBerry, it's similar to it, and he seems to like it, so I think it's good.

It's like a computer in the palm of your hand. What's not to like about that?

The only bad thing, is that they get dirty kind of quick, and you always have to lock it so it doesn't call random people or do things you don't want it to when it's in your pocket/purse/whatever.

does anyone know the names of some really kewl poprockeletrcohousish songs?
cos i hear em everyday but have no idea from who and stuff. :/
just tell me some songs you find good :) thnkss!

If you like music like that, you'll like the band Metro Station. They do music like that, so you'll probably like them. :]

my subject lacked something that i couldn't fit in.. but like i have a guyfriend and we're pretty tight you know and we like playing games. so we usually talk via email so our we get responses every few hours (this might affect your answers).

so like we used to play word association games like
me: apple
him: orange
me: sun

etc. like the last word typed => what word comes to mind afterwards?

and then we got bored with that, so now we're playing think of a word using the last letter of the last word like
me: ipod
him: demon
me: name

and we're going to continue playing that for a while in our email threads.

but that's only two games! can someone please suggest some other fun games i could play with him via internet? we've also tried the "i say a sentence, then you say another sentence in response to it" etc. game but that only works well with like 20 people, not two cause you inadvertently include the sentences before. we also can't exactly play truth or dare / ask SUPER DUPER personal questions cause we recently got over that awkward stage in our friendship when i liked him & he didn't like me and visa versaa (timing makes all the difference..)

in addition, would you rather / truth or dare gets hard because we can't think of good questions to ask each other (anymore, at least)

in summary, i need some new ideas on what games to play with my close guyfriend without being awkward! thanks in advance

Would you rather could actually work pretty well. Just think of something insanely weird and keep it going. Me and my best friend play it sometimes, but since we're weird, we come up with things nobody else in the universe would..

well my dad broke up with his girlfriend and she cant pay the bill for my cell phone by herself so they have to turn it off. I asked my mom if i could go back on her plan for sprint but the problem is i have a samsung blackjack from AT&T, so she thinks that they can just let me keep my phone but convert the service to sprint, I myself dont think its going to work, but that is my question, can they? and if not can i get put on her plan and get a new phone?

There was a kid from New Jersey I believe, who hacked an IPhone (AT&T) and got it under T-Mobile Service, so technically it can be done, but it's damn hard.

Try it, and if they can't do it, then ask your dad to pay for the phone. If he can't, then you have to get it shut off & there's not much more you can really do.

13/f
im am currently 172 pounds.
i desperatly need a dieting plan.
help help help help!
i need to lose a lot [50 pounds]
before may 23
please and thank you

You can't lost 50 lbs in a month and a half.

I'm gonna do stuff with him. But I mean before we do anything. I wouldn't tease him then blow him off like it was nothing.

It doesn't matter.

Teases suck.

are you supposed to shave before you have sex?

You don't have to, but you can if you like.

I'm a huge fan of thirty seconds to mars + realize they are in the UK as of now, but does anyone know when they're coming back to the US? I know they already toured for A Beautiful Lie here, but they must being doing promotional shows here in new england in new york/boston. thanks :]

Check their MySpace for show dates.

is 7th or 8th grade too young to have sex?
also, is it possible to have like dry sex with your clothes on?

Yes.

And yes.

You shouldn't even have dry sex. Sex comes with a lot of emotional baggage that you're not able to handle at 13 or 14. Just wait it out for a few years [preferably 5-6]. If you have sex now, you'll ruin yourself. It's not good to corrupt yourself so early.

there is so much drama between boys and backstabbers and friends at my school!! i just want to stay out of it? any ideas?????

Uh, when someone tells you about it, just be like "Oh, okay." Don't give them advice, don't state your opinion, just nod it off. If you give them advice or state your opinion, you become involved in the he said, she said thing.

Just don't get too concerned with it and you should be fine.

how to tease a guy to the point where he is about to go crazy....some tips please(:

I will rate!

If you're not going to do anything with the guy, teasing him wouldn't be a good idea. It's frustrating & I've seen some guys get really pissed over it. You may think being a tease is cute, but it isn't.

How would you feel if someone got you all riled up and then left you there?

whats the best brand of makeup?

Sephora & MAC are really good, but they tend to be a little on the expensive side.

Some affordable lines are Covergirl, L'Oreal, Maybelline & Revlon.

Who are some old school rap artist?

Run DMC.
Salt n Pepa.
Beastie Boys.
MC Hammer.
Public Enemy.
NWA.

what are some jobs that have to do with fashion besides being a fashion designer?

You can help get the models ready at a show.
You can take the pictures.
You can intern at a big designer company.
You can intern at a fashion magazine.

There's a lot of jobs that have to do with Fashion.

16/f. I have a very strange boyfriend of 3 months. For one thing, he told me that he cheated on me today..He said that while I was away on vacation for 4 days..his old friend came over his house to do "science homework" but they ended up doing much more than that. At first, he didn't tell me what it was they did. I got upset because he cheated on me (in general). But then, later on, when I seemed to have cooled down, he told me he engaged in oral sex with that girl. I was shocked..and I kept on wondering why he would tell me that in the first place. But then, he got all upset about it. And started telling me "I love you, I love you and I'm sorry" and all that other crap. I don't know what to do. Usually, I'm too nice and forgiving. What would you do? :( He's my age.

Why would a guy lie about cheating on you? Does that honestly seem logical to you? Like, seriously...does it? Think about it.

I think you need to dump him. Being too nice & too forgiving is usually what gets you walked all over, so why do that to yourself? Just end it and find someone who's good to you. Nobody deserves to be cheated on. It sucks.

Well this might be a a weird question but i dont really care haha =]
so i was wondering does anyone know what Romeo's zodiac sign could have been? I mean hes a guy who is truly passionate about life yet doesnt think things through and as a result makes many mistakes. Does anyone have any ideas about this? haha thanx =D

I think he might have been a Virgo. He was really sexual (trying to get Juliet in bed when they first met, he was very lusty) and Virgo's tend to be the romantic type. And Romeo, well he was a hopeless romantic.
