My boyfriend understands that I am self-concious and see private dances as a form of cheating, I practically begged him not 2 get one for his stag and he literally swore in my life that he would only get one if his mates paid at his stag and that would be it!! I take people swearing in my life very serious!! He then got 2 dances the one paid for by his friends and the one he paid for!! He lied on me asking twice before finally admitting that he had in fact paid himself for the second one!! I am in bits I know he loves me and I still want to marry him but I cant get the images out of my mind and feel physically sick at the thought!! I need help 2 get this out of my head before I go insane!! xxxxx (link)
Stag's are usually pretty crazy. and strippers/dancers are def a cool thing for dudes. Honestly. i wouldn't worry too much. he did not sleep with them. and he loves you very very much.
That's why he's marrying you. Just remember all the love that you two share. and remember this is a very minimal thing. you've got your whole life ahead of you guys:P

I am 41 years of age. How is it that I forget so many things? I keep losing money, small amounts but still, its money. $5, $10, $20 and just last night a friend gave me $50 and I lost that too. I was certain I placed it inside of my wallet. Didn't go out for the night, my 15 year old son and I was home but we were both inside of our separate rooms. I'm not sure of the medical term used to describe this forgetfulness, but I wonder, could I have early signs of something? for right now, its only money I lose, but I dont want this progressing into something that I have no control of. Could you make some suggestions please? (link)
Have you talked to you son about the missing money? It's not your fault. and if your sure you didn't lose it .. well it just sounds fishy to me


Hi !
So I am a currently finishing up my last year in high school and I am now in the process of signing up for universities. I've already signed up for a university near my house, but I am also starting to consider applying to universities outside of my hometown . I've already brought up this topic to my mom, but from what I can already tell, she's not that very fond of the idea. I don't know what to do .. Because the thing is, whats holding me back is that I'd be leaving my only mom at home, my family the place that I grew up in ,and plus the fact that I could be leaving my old ways and comfort of my moms support is really hard to let go. but then there also a part of me that wants to experience the world and try to live and grow independently as well. Should I apply for schools outside of my hometown or not ? Do u think its a good idea ?
Should I just do my undergraduates at a far university and then come back to do my graduate /proffesional school and residency at home ? Vice versa ? Or should I just go full out and do all of university away from home and then go back home for my actual career ? Cause I think I still want to live in my hometown in the future ! Please help ! (link)
Moving away from your mom is a difficult choice. it is one i have feared for many years as i am getting older(22) i still live with my parents and i fear that day for moving out is coming soon. No matter what your mother will always be in your life. and even if you do not live with her, you will miss her. it is a fact i can tell you will not change.

As for universities. I'm not too sure how they work on being accepted or what not. But i would take a look at what classes each place offers. what classes interest you. You want to go into something that interests you. I personally didn't go to university because i am a strong believer in not wasting money/time on classes i will never use.

Whether or not to leave out of town for school or stay in your home town i simply can not make that decision for you. It will take thinking and researching and discovering inside you where you want your life to go. Its not a easy decision. and you will meet bumps and mistakes on your journey of life. But where ever you end up. will be a great place!

Lately I have been struggling with achieving to financially support myself. I aspire to live on my own or with roommate in a rented apartment. I haven't yet got a job. I applied somewhere where I would make a decent amount to cover expenses but I haven't heard back from them. I believe my resume was good with my credentials. Although I think since I haven't received word from the employer, they must have overlooked me. What should I do to win them over if there's anything? I feel my anxiety kicking in and I feel like giving up all hope. I'm going to apply to some more jobs but I have doubt that a minimum wage job will cover finances. Rent around here can be up to $600 a month. Split in two, $300. All I have is a high school diploma and three past jobs. Any advice? (link)
Alot of people have to take on 2 jobs to make enough to cover expenses. Some people to a day job and then work a few shifts as a waitress or a waiter, this will get you tip out. which is all the tips divided by people and hours. but might help.

living on your own is a great thing. but with no job. it is not do able.

Try calling the company back and saying you dropped off your resume and your are calling them back to see if they viewed it. this will show good on your part.

but dont depend on one job. some people have to apply to many many jobs before getting one.

Just keep trying and you will do good :)


Ok we'll I'm only 12 and the guy I like is in my class at school so we are in the same classes and I think he considers me as a friend because we're NEVER alone together went we talk or sit together or anything like that and he never writes back if I pass him a note. But right now your probobly thinking that he doesn't like me but somtimes it's like he's sending me mixed signals and its confusing me I mean he does send signals that he likes me and signals that he just wants to be friends and I don't know what I should do like if I should ask him out your tell him I like him or change my appearance on what he complements me on if you know what I mean. But yeah I'm so confused and I'm asking if you can tell me what I should do or say your anything like that. So like I said were both only 12 and me and him are best friends but we only known eatch other for like 3-4 years so yeah /p.s he's older and taller and his name is Keller and he has one of those clueless funny personalitys. And I'm Ashlee and I don't no if I'm clueless or anything but I am considered the class clown in the class but not that popular. AND I KNOW FOR A FAVT NO OTHER PERSON LIKES HIM AND HE'S NOT GOING OUT WITH ANYONE gtg now bye oh and I'm a girl and he's a boy

First off. Do not change yourself for what you think he may like or want of you. It can be a very challenging horrable experience. I learned the hard way that males will like you for who you are and if the dont they arent worth it.

I would him hints so try holding him longer than a normal hug would usually last. or try flirting with him. holding his hand? giggling and smiling when he says something funny.

or ask him if he wants to go to a movie


Well I am a female im 17 and I have soon to be 19 year old boyfriend. We have been goin out for 3 years and 11 months. We talk about getting married and everything else (link)
Because your so young you want to make sure you are ready for this. Talk about it with you friends family. Make sure this is the right step you want to take right now. A secure income is very important on both sides of the relationship.
A Baby is very very expensive. I would research your Expenses with a new born and make sure you two can afford this new step in your future.


Hi, I'm 18 years old and female, from Australia. Ok so I have lived with some symptoms that may or may not be related to each other for years. They are inconvenient and sometimes embarrassing. I'm just fed up really, and any advice would be appreciated.
Here is a list:
1. Red skin. I blush very easily on my face. I also get red skin on my neck, arms, stomach, chest and even legs if I'm very hot. Some triggers of redness include heat, cold, wind, embarrassment, anger, excitement, hot food/drink, alcohol, or touching my face too much.
2. Extremely sensitive skin. Probably related to redness. For example, I can't use hair removal cream, as it gives me a rash. When I shave I get bumps easily. When I pluck my eyebrows they bleed. I had my eyebrows waxed and they stayed red for weeks until the hair grew back.
3. Excessive sweating. On my face and underarms mostly. Also hands, back and neck. Very annoying.
4. I get thirsty a lot. Even when I drink a lot of water a day I still have a dry mouth and chapped lips. I admit I don't drink a lot of water, but when I do I still feel thirsty. I also get headaches from dehydration sometimes.
5. I pee a lot, and it hits me suddenly. So when I do try drink a lot of water I just have to keep running to the toilet to pee but still feel thirsty. My friends have even commented on me having to rush to the toilet a lot.

All of these may be related.
I'm quite sure I have Keratosis Pillaris which causes redness, sensitivity and bumps on my skin. A doctor told me its highly likely I have this.
But I need help with sweating, being thirsty and having a weak bladder.
Do you think these are related?
Also I've tried to treat my excessive sweating with prescription strength deodorant but it doesn't work. I sweat even when I'm not hot, anxious, exercising, etc. For example, right now I'm sitting at home with anti-persperant deodorant on, and my arm pits are very damp.

Any help is welcomed, thanks for taking the time to read :) (link)
Some make up fights redness and covers it up. I've seen macabelle turn red skin into not red skin. so that would help with your face.

As for the rest the only thing i can think of is You might have some sort of deficiency of some kind. I would suggest going to your family doctor and getting a full physical as well as full blood tests, or tests period.

goodluck


Hi! I'm a 12 year old girl from Australia and I'm a song writer.

So, I haven't really written a song in 8 months, and I want to get back into songwriting.. But I need YOUR help!

So I write songs by hearing something that sounds like it would be a good song (For example: I heard someone say "Revenge of an Angel" and I made that into a song) and I make it into one! So can you please give me a few titles that would sound like an interesting sound name? Thanks!!!!! (link)

If i've never had sex and one day I decide to have sex with a virgin could i catch genital warts? (link)
If you both or virgins and have never had genital to genital contact you are likely not infected. but it can form on downstairs hair and can be transferred from hair to hair


Long story short...
Been dating a guy since September. Made it "official" the beginning of this month. After a few beers tonight, we were in his bed and he told me he loved me. I know it wasn't to get laid because that happened before we were even dating. So i'm thinking it was mostly because of the alcohol tonight. I did say it back, i think i messed up there because I do like him a lot but not on that level. I am about to sound dumb as hell for asking this but What could I say to apologize for not meaning it? (link)
Do NOT Say you didn't mean it. That will hurt him more. Just keep it the way it is. because if you try to take it back. he will be very very hurt.


I am pretty sure I am pregnant with my fathers or maybe (brothers) child.... not sure really. Should I get an abortion, or keep the child. I am 15, I am popular at school, and I am embarrassed, and to top it off I cant do cheer pregnant (totally sucks). What should I do? Please help me. (link)
This is definitely not an easy question to answer. but I will do what i can to help you.

First off. Was the sex Mutual. Meaning. Did you okay for them to sleep with you. Because If it was not wanted. that is justified as rape. I believe the best person to talk to would be the help line.

I wish you the luck of many life times.


I'm 14 and I am scared to commit suicide. My reason for these thoughts are:
1. I don't have any friends at school.
2. I never had a girlfriend in my life.
3. My parents like my sister more than me.
4. My parents always get mad at me.
5. The Biggest One: I locked my mom's computer and she has to pay $200 within 48 hours, and if she does, I won't have a christmas
I just I really don't believe in God, because nothing good in my life has happened. I really want to commit suicide, but I'm afraid.
(link)
So we have all made mistakes that made us feel world ending.
1. I didn't either. For the longest time. all i had was myself. It does take time. Maybe try joining a club or a class where you could meet someone in an after school activity.

2. You are only 14 bro,. you have your whole life to date. and date you will :P
3. I had the same issue with the sister thing. it may seem like they do like your sister more than you, it's not that at all. they like you just as much it's just the girl syndrome so don't even think of it.

4. Parents get mad at you in a way to teach you the rights and wrongs of life. they are only looking at your best interest.

5. A simple mistake. Everyone makes them. I've done too many mistakes (age 21) So trust me when i say everyone makes mistakes it's a way of learning. it's also how we grow and discover

Don't commit suicide. you have a whole life ahead of you and have so much going for you


i am a 21 year old boy . during my college days my classmate who is daily drinker is used to visit my room and making some quarrels.
i am actually shy type. one day he over drink and force me to see sex movies. he force me to pull down in the cot. and he tied me up with him . he kissed me. this happens daily.
i feel very shame. i always think that i did and doing wrong thing. i dont want to be live. but my family is poor. i have to serve and work for my family. what to do? (link)
Advice man is correct. This is sexual harassment. Anything that is forced on you that makes you feel uncomfortable is unwanted there for harassment. I would talk to someone you trust including a higher power,. such as the police. it may be just kissing now. But it could, and may turn very very bad.


I am a 13yr old female and never liked to kiss my dads lips. It's isn't a full out make out session but just a really long pucker up and get your face smushed thing. I turn my head so he gets the memo to kiss my check but then he gets really mad at me. I turn to leave and I'm yelled at until I come back. He then says "what the hell is wrong with you?!?" And is ticked off for the rest of the day. My mom and sister are then mad at me too because I can't suck it up. My dad doesn't kiss my sister on the mouth though! He will grab me by my arms and kiss me really hard and won't let me leave! Then sometimes he will kiss my neck and my shoulder and collarbone which makes me really uncomfy. Is this ok? (link)
honestly. This is not an acceptable way between father and daughter. It is very inappropriate. If it makes you feel uncomfortable you must say so. This may be a mind set for him. but only your partner aka boyfriend/girlfriend should use this affection. Not a father or mother unto a child. If you are to scared to talk to your dad or mom I would suggest talking to the Child's help line. It is completely anonymous and they are trusted people who will be able to help you more.

I want to go natural. It's been 2 months since I had a relaxer and my hair is still straight. I don't know of any hairstyles. I've been washing, conditioning and moisturizing my hair. I don't use any heat. I'm afraid that my hair will fall out. What can I do to my hair? What kind of hairstyles can I wear since my hair is straight? (link)
You could try doing a backcombing style,.
it's a poofing style. that adds volume


Hi, I am male/23, 213 lbs.
I was 243 lbs 3 months back and lost around 30lbs in 3 months. I am a wide framed guy with fair amount of muscle but a thick layer of fat over it.i am eggetarian.
I do cardio in the morning and weights in the eve. Niw I am kind of stuck on 213lbs for almost 20 days so I was th8nking may be its time to start intermittent fastin. But thw problem is if I start my 8 hour window at 11 o'clock then I wont be able to pump my usual protein after weights in the eve that is boiled white eggs at 9 after gym. So can I skip breakfast and start my window at 1 meaning no meal after morning cardio or is there some way to do this better way.
Thanks...any other advice on the topic will be a great too...thanks a million guys. (link)
I totally don't know how guy's muscle loss works. but this is what i know.

Breakfast is a very important part of your morning. It's like a car without gas. It can't run. Even if you don't want breakfast at lease have a little bit.

I've also been told by a gym trainer. that cardio works after the 30 minute mark. After the 30 minutes your body is warmed up enough and the fat will start burning after that.


My family thinks that im.a pain in their ass, I love my dad but I always let him down, I dont wanna live a life which is just not me
I cant even run away coz it will eventually lead to problems with my family
I dont wanna give them pain
Plz tel me some suicide tips... Plz help me (link)
I quote 'I dont wanna give them pain'.

This is exactly what you will be doing and worse if you go thru with suicide. Honestly life will get you down. it will hurt you kick you around and make pies out of your sadness.
But what you have to remember is that you are stronger than life. You can overcome any bridge that gets in your way.


I'm 13 and my boyfriend is 14. We have been dating for 8 months and I really like him(obviously). When I'm with him I forget what to say and he gets mad at for not talking to him. So how could I fix that? I have another question, my boyfriend invited me to him and his family thanksgiving dinner. How can I get his family to like me? (link)
There is no way to 'GET' Them to like you. All you can do is be yourself. Try opening up to your boyfriend. Talk to him more about something that you are comfortable talking to him about. compliment him. But mostly explain to himm. that you are a very shy person and being in a relationship is going to take some time to get used to.


ok so im 16, girl, and basically iv been friends with this guy for a few years now, we have been jammin a lot more in the last year and have liked each other on and off for the last two years, i decided to keep it as friends but with benefits ( any teenage boys dream right?)

so some help would be frickin sweet at this point
mouchos love (link)
Are you sure you want to be only fwb(Friends with benefits)??
If you both like each other on and off,. Maybe you should try going on a few dates. I only suggest this first,. because i've done this a few times and one person usually ends up developing stronger feelings.

If you do want fwb, try flirting with him, dressing up a bit for him,. or you could just try going in for a kiss
