about

My name is Elly and I am 18 years old. I live in Michigan and I graduated High School in '07. I'm currently attending a great college, but I'm home for the summer. It's too nice outside to sit on the computer all day, so I might not be as active on here as I would like.

I guess a good way to describe me is experienced. I've discovered a lot about life and I can't wait to discover more... while having fun at the same time of course! ...BUT, like everyone, I have experienced things in life that I rather wish I hadn't. And I also feel that those bad experiences qualify me to help others with this column.

I have been in a serious relationship for over two and a half years now. I personally know that love is a difficult thing to nurture. It takes a lot of work. Life is NOT a fairytale where two people can simply love each other and everything will just fall into place. It doesn't work like that in the real world.

People on Advicenators are starting to disappoint me. Everyone says "ooh I want to help! I've experienced EVERYTHING!" Yet, I can't tell you how many questions I see with answers like "you could have googled that" or "we're not going to do your homework" or "I'm so sick of 'wow does he like me?!' questions." I used to sort of be like that, but now I realize how hypocritical that is. If I know the answer to a question, I will answer to the best of my ability without making you feel stupid for asking it in the first place. Advicenators is going to turn into a pretty nasty place if people just keep brushing off questions like that.

Rate or don't rate. I really don't care. But don't give me a 1 just because I tell you something you don't want to hear. Go to your mom for advice if you want sugarcoated answers.

I can give excellent advice on:
relationships/sex
friendship
family issues
anything about animals (i worked at a vet for several years)
college

Can you go to the bathroom right after you take plan b or the morning after pill?
How affective is it..I need advice about people who have used it n if it worked for them. Me n my boyfriend had sex the condem broke, he pulled out he says he pulled out while it was going off while it was still in..so it wasn't like all the way. i need advice im freakin out

The plan B pill is very affective. The sooner you take it after having unprotected sex, the less chance you have of getting pregnant. I've only had to use this pill once, and I didn't get pregnant.

You can go to the bathroom after taking the pill. Don't worry about that.

As long as you took the pill no more than 48 hours after having sex, you should be just fine. Try not to stress yourself out too much over it because that can delay your next period even more.

(Rating: 5) thank you so much for your advice you really helped me feel better. I took the morning after pill 30 min after it happened i ran to the store as quick as possible. Its hard because this is the only guy i've had sex with and it took a year and ahalf after dating til we did. we were being really safe we pulled out everytime even with a condem but this really opened my eyes and let me see that accidents do happen n to be careful. Thanks
