I really dread my grandparents dying. Practically every other night i cry myself to sleep because i am afraid that we will get a call the next morning saying one of my grandparents is gone. (grandparents on my mom's side the most) I see them every week, i have been seeing them a lot recently, and we are very close. I try to think about the happy times, and have fun while i am with them. I still can't keep the thoughts out of my head. Is this ok, just a girl that doesn't want to lose someone she really loves, or should i try and not be so close? i really don't want to pull apart from them. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! (link)
With you I don't think being to attached to your grandparents is a problem; I just think your problem is that you fear the death of your loved ones which is normal, but you should live in the present. Don't fear their death just appreciate the time you have with them. But everyone does die at some point, so when they do die just know that they are happy and wouldn't want you mourning their death.


Ok, I have had my perid since the last day of may. It has been almost 2 months and I'm still having my period. It's weird because the last week of may I had a really heavy period. And then the second to last week of June I had a really heavy period too. And now the second to last week of July I'm having the heaviest period of all. In between the weeks my period is light but I still have to wear pads and stuff. I talked to my mom and she suggested going to the doctor and getting birth control to help me regulate. Should I just wait a little longer? Or should I see a doctor right away? Also, I'm not sexually active whats so ever, and I never had been. I've had my period all of summer so far! It sucks : ( Thanks for the advice! (link)
I think you should go to the doctor and not wait any longer because having your period this long is irregular and not normal at all. There also might be something else wrong other than a irregular period.


I have always wondered if you burn calories when you talk, sing or laugh. I know this is a weird question! (link)
You don't burn calories when you sing or talk; however you do burn calories if you laugh about 5 minutes or longer.

uhh how bad is drinking for you actually? I'm 15 I drink almost every day but I'm pretty much an honor student so I don't get it what's so bad with it? (link)
Drinking may not be a problem now but if you develope a worse drinking problem later in life it could lead to more health problems; also if you start drinking at a young age your more likely to become an alcoholic or a drug user.

The Dangers of Alcohol

Alcohol contributes to 100,000 deaths annually, making it the third leading cause of preventable mortality in the U.S., after tobacco and diet/activity patterns. Alcohol is a nervous system depressant, which can affect virtually every organ in the body, since it goes directly into the bloodstream. It lowers inhibitions and impairs judgment, leading to unsafe behaviors, and eventually even death.

Alcohol has many side effects including altering your perceptions, dulling your senses, hindering coordination, and blocking memory functions. If you continue to use alcohol heavily, you could experience stomach ailments, sexual impotence, heart and central nervous system damage, loss of appetite, and blackouts.

When alcohol accumulates in your bloodstream, your errors will increase. Your reaction time slows down drastically, and you find that you are unable to control your vehicle, or other items, as you did prior to drinking. In addition, it creates a false sense of confidence- so you may not realize that you are out of control.

Drinking, even at moderate levels, can put you at risk for serious health and social problems. Alcohol interacts negatively with more than 150 medications, so check with your doctor or pharmacist prior to drinking any amount of alcohol, if you are taking any over the counter or prescription medication. The more heavily you drink, the greater the strain will be on your relationships with family, friends, and coworkers. It could even lead to the loss of your job or committing or being the victim of an act of violence.

If you have to ask yourself if you have a problem with alcohol, the chances are that you do. Many people use alcohol to escape from their problems, or to change their personalities. They have an inability to control their drinking, a high tolerance level for alcohol, and may suffer problems at work or in school as a result. If your family and friends are concerned about your problem, you should be too. It is a sad fact that an estimated 6.6 million children under the age of 18 live in households with at least one alcoholic parent.

You should also remember that alcoholism is just one of the diseases caused by alcohol. This disease can lead to others, such as cirrhosis and cancer of the liver. According to the NIAAA, "alcohol is typically found in the offender, victim or both in about half of all homicides and serious assaults, as well as in a high percentage of sex-related crimes, robberies, and incidents of domestic violence, and alcohol-related problems are disproportionately found among both juvenile and adult criminal offenders".

Help is available through the Alcoholics Anonymous organization. However, "alcohol-related problems are not likely to be reduced by strategies involving single interventions directed solely at the individual," says the NIAAA. "Economic, political, social and environmental forces that work together to encourage and perpetuate these problems must also be addressed."


Well, last summer I met this guy at camp and he seemed really sweet, so we started hanging out. After a while we started dating and after about a month we had sex. After, we broke up and this guy at my school asked me out. He's really sweet and I like him a lot, but I still have feelings for the guy I met at camp. Then about a week after I started dating the other guy, the guy I met at camp wanted to get back together. Do you think I should get back together with him or is he just using me for sex? I really like the other guy and he's never mentioned sex once and he told me he loved me, what do I do? (link)
It all depends on who you have stronger feelings for and what your looking for in a guy, and if you dont know then maybe that's the best place to start; but you shouldn't get back together with the guy you met at camp just because you have history together. If you really like the guy you met at school it would probably be easier and less stressful to have a relationship with him. Maybe all you need with the guy you met at camp is closure.


my girl-friend seems to be insecure, or at least not trust me enough. if she doesn't trust me or maybe even her-self enuff, would ther be anything i should or could do? would asking her be a bad idea or iz that what im supposed to do (link)
Some people have a hard time trusting people because of previous relationships or family problems. Just show her that your there for her anyway you can and tell her that if she ever needs to talk to someone your there and eventually she'll lay her trust in you and open up. And maybe she's just afraid of getting hurt.
Does she have any ex - boyfriends that have hurt her before? But whatever you do DON'T ask her because it might make her more insecure if thats the case.


ok i have been dating this guy for awhile now and i care for him alot but i dont think a relationship is what i want from him anymore.hes to CLINGY and SENSITIVE.he always wants to just talk to me or just hang out with me alone.he never wants to talk with me and my friends we always have to be alone.i noticed i never have time for my friends anymore and im always going to be late.i have already tried to break up with him twice but he just cried and i felt guilty so i took him back now ive had it and we got into a fight about my friends a couple days ago and now im just avoiding him because i know when i do talk to him hell cry...help me what do i do?!?!?1 (link)
You can't just stay with a guy because your afraid of a bad break-up, just ask to talk to him alone, then tell him how you feel and that you don't think you should see eachother anymore he may cry but you will have to take that chance especially since the only reason your staying with him is because your afraid to break up with him.


So i have pin straight hair, like you can not curl it at all no matter how long you leave the iron in for or sleep in curls, it does not work. I was thinking about a perm, but how long do they last? Do they damage your hair? Can you still straighten it? Is it hard to straighten? Are there different types of perms? Yeah I am a perm-dummy so all the help and information would be helpful :] I will rate high if I get a good response. (link)
A perm lasts pretty much forever you just have to get the perm redone when your hair grows out so the new hair will be permed too. They only damage your hair when you don't take care of your hair or if you wash it to often. Given your type of hair it will problably be easier to straighten and there are many different types of perms for straight and curly hair.


Ok, so theres this guy, let's call him Cameron. I've been literally in love with him for over 2 and a half years. He's liked me that long too, but the problem is, one of his best girl friends (who is also my best friend) says that he likes five girls. Two of which are halfway across the country. Then there's me, and two other girls that must go to my school. On a scale of 1-10 he rated me a 9, and a girl in another state a 10. I'm getting really jealous and I'm not sure how to react to all this. He says he really likes me, and he even gave me flowers on Valentine's Day, but I'm just not sure what to do. Should I still keep my hopes up for him, or try to give him up since he likes 5 different girls? Any help is appreciated. Thanks. (link)
You should not be jelous he may rate a girl in another state a ten and you a nine, but he sees you almost every day and problably never sees her so his rating of you can change any time for the better and for the worse, but how long do you think he will like a girl he never sees?


My step father has been forcing me to have sex with him for a few years now. When I was 8-9 he brought home a porno tape and showed it to me. I called my mom and told her that it was a sick tape and he threw it away. After that, my dad has brought porno tapes for us to watch and has had sex with me various times. I hate it when this happens, but I've been afraid to tell anyone!! He taps my ass and touches it and stuff. What do I do to make it stop?!?! (link)
The only way to stop it is to tell someone! He does not have the right to force you to do anything with him that makes you uncomfortable.
Tell ANYONE your mom, your uncle, your aunt, your teachers. Anyone you trust can help you. Dont be afraid to lay your trust in someone they can help you. Good Luck


if anyone watches american idol, can you please tell me what the song lisa tucker sang is called? she sang it on the most recent episode of all the girls singing. thank you. (link)
It's called "I am Changing"


ok so i have a friend (joann) who loves to sing, and wants to be a famous singer for her career and she works really LOVES to sing. i also love to sing, and know a great deal and music along with many of my friends. The problem is joann cant sing fo rthe life of her. everytime she starts to sing people laugh. shes ac=bsolutley awful. shes known in my school to be an awful singer. being a friend i cant tell her, and her parents tell her shes good. what can my friends and i do to help her see that maybe singing isnt the right thing for her? thanks!!
(link)
That's a hard one you can either tell her and end up hurting her feelings or she will eventually find out from someone else and she might get hurt even more because you have not told her, but I think it would be best if she found out from someone that cares about her.


ok, i really like this girl at school and shes the only girl ive like at my new school. i told a couple of my best friends that i liked her and it slowly spread throughout the class to her. her friend asked if i am going to ask her out or not and im really not sure because she has been known to dump boys after 2 days(thats the record for her) some of her friends said that shes interested in me but i dont want to get my heart broken like i did with my last girlfriend. should i take this chance (link)
You will never know if she truly likes you if you do not give it a shot. You should take a chance and ask her out and if you don't you will never know if she could of had a different relationship with you than most guys, because if you don't ask her out you might regrett it and always wonder what would happen.


i'm going to a small party on saturday night, and i know there's going to be like kissing games.... what do i do if i have to be the one!? what if i'm too shy and stuff? also, any sites on how to help me like lear how to kiss right and stuff? haha thanks! (link)
Go to myjellybean.com and go to flirting


ok...i really like this guy...abd he likes me too...he told me him self...but i think h is too shy t ask meout...what can i do so he will ask me out? or do i have to do it myself? lol thank you and i do rate...as long as you dont bull shit me! (link)
You should ask him to hang out with you and a bunch of friends, then maybe he'll ask you out their once he gets used to hanging out with you more.


i'm 13 years old and i'm only 4'11. i only have like 2 years left to grow (yes i've had my period already) and i really want to be at least 5'1 or something. if i have to spend the rest of my life being under 5 feet, i'll hate it a lot. i know to some people it may not seem like such a big deal but it kind of is to me. my parents are normal height so i don't know whats wrong?? so how can i get taller? like what should i eat? vitamins? thanks (link)
There's no way to make your self get taller unless you want to use steroids wich is a really bad idea, plus you don't stop growing till your 18 some people even grow up to when their 19 it depends on the person.


I feel so stressed out, but I don't know why. School isn't any harded than usual, and my family/friends/ love life is fine. I don't physically feel different than any other day, yet for some reason i constantly feel like crying about....everything. i dont know know why, but im so over emotional. nothing has happened to make things different, but im so stressed i feel like i cant take anything anymore. And advice? I rate 5's. (link)
Mybe you should think about getting a couselor or preffesional help. Cause major stress can lead to felling bad all the time and deppression, Or maybe you can talk to someone you trust, but you should talk to someone either way.


ok so that kid mike u answered the question about danielle too well he is like blind or sumthin cus she told him she doesnt like him and he doesnt realize it and plus she likes other ppl who she thinks are way hotter same with everyone else plus all of that if she went with him it wood kinda ruin her rep and ya so i was wondering wat i can do to either help get them together or fix him straight
thanks(his friend)
(link)
It should really be your friends choice, but if you really want to get them together try a group date they could hang out and they would'nt think it was a date and then maybe the will go out on their own.


13/m sorry its so long

thanks
mike (link)
Have you tried talking to her?
If you want her to know what you did for her was for her than be honest tell her and ask her out then you will finally know if she likes you, and if she dosn't you can still be good friends.
