Is there any such thing as free text messaging? I keep seeing ads for it but it always seems to be a scam. Do you know of anyway to sens texts without having to pay? (link)
| |
The only ways that I know of are with a smartphone or tablet. TextFree is one free texting app I use often and I recommend it.

I know, I know... not very mature of me. :) But I dearly love this old pair of footy PJs my ex gave me years ago. They are threadbare, and I would like to buy a new pair but I haven't seen any in local stores. I hate to buy on-line, but if you can tell me a site that has them and that you trust with your CC info then I will. Thanks! (link)

I managed to find a few places
http://www1.macys.com/cms/slp/2/Adult-Footed-Pajamas (Macy's)
http://www.spencersonline.com/apparel_girls_loungewear_pajamas (Spencer's)
http://www.sears.com/intimates-sleepwear-robes&Footie+Pajamas/b-1023578?filter=Style (Sears)
All of which I've bought things online from. It's going to depend on the store(s) near you whether they have them in stock there or not, but if not then you have the online option.
You could also try Walmart or even Amazon and Ebay if you don't see anything from those stores that you like. I wouldn't be surprised if you could find some on Etsy either.

I made a fake Kik account (Fake name, fake picture, fake age) and went on this Kik website thing because I thought it would be funny to mess with people on it. Well there was this one guy that said "Take a picture of your body or I will punish you". I obviously didn't and I just blocked him. Well I changed my password and everything so now the account is pretty much deleted. Well, can that guy track me down? I didn't tell him any information or anything like that but I'm scared that he can. Please help. (link)
|
Since I don't have the knowledge to answer this myself and I'm also curious, I did a google search for you. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=track+down+on+kik

I was wondering where I can get a vibrator if I am under 18 (I'm 15). I know Spencer's and Walmart have them, but would I be able to purchase one? Please don't tell me I shouldn't have one until I'm 18. It's better than me risking STD's or pregnancy (though that's not an issue, I'm les.) :/
I was thinking since Spencer's is more of a 'gag/novelty' store, they'd let it slide. What about Walmart? Could I just self check out? (link)
|
In addition to what the person before me said, do you have your own debit card? And if so, do your parents respect your privacy when packages you order online are delivered? You could always go the online route, if you have the ability. Places like Amazon deliver in plain cardboard boxes to maintain privacy.
The Spencers in my area doesn't let anybody under 18 buy sex toys but I've heard of stores in other locations not caring. I think it just depends on the cashiers/manager willing to bend rules for things like that. I'd say your best route (besides ordering online) would be getting one in Walmart and going to self checkout or having an older, trusted friend get one for you.

Okay so me and my best friend can barely even have a normal conversation anymore. We are apart of the same religion and she almost always brings something up about it and it makes me really uncomfortable talking about the subject. How can I explain this to her? I've told her that I feel uncomfortable but all she says is that she's trying to help me.
P.S. Please don't tell me to stop being her friend. Thanks :) (link)
|
You could try bean dipping. Hopefully, she'll eventually get the message. Bean dipping is basically just redirecting the conversation to something else and sticking to it. So for example:
Her: "Blah blah blah and that's how I feel about (religious thing)"
You: "That's nice. Hey, did you hear (artists) new single?
You can bean dip with various other topics. Try talking about music, movies, actors, hobbies you both like. Unfortunately, some people either just can't read social ques or they can but will ignore them and keep insisting on the subject.
You've already told her that the subject makes you uncomfortable. As your best friend, she should honor that and not bring up the topic anymore. It's pretty rude of her to ignore your comfort level and continue on bringing it up.
If bean dipping doesn't work or you're interested in finding other polite but tactful ways of getting her to stop, I suggest checking out this forum http://www.etiquettehell.com/smf/index.php

I just bought these really cute blue jeans that are skinny jeans would but I dnt know what kind of shoes to wear with them. I also bought this really cut top but the sleeves are long sleeved and the sleeves are sea through and it shows my back would it be okay to we're the shirt to church as long as I wear an undershirt so my back won't show and a strapless bra so my bra straps won't show or would it show to much to wear to church? (link)
|
The beauty of blue skinny jeans is that you can wear them with pretty much anything. Sneakers, heels, boots, flats, sandals, flip flops, ect. All paired with different shirts and accessories will create different looks. Throw on sneakers/flip flops/flats for a casual look, heels for a formal/fancy look, sandals for a put together look that's not really casual but not really formal, either. Really, the sky's the limit. It just depends what kind of shoes you like to wear or the look you're trying to go for. Personally, I only ever wear sandals, flip flops, moccasins, or boots with the pant legs tucked in. That's just my style and what I like.
As for the church question, I don't attend church myself, but the shirt with a tank/cami under it and strapless bra sounds fine to me.

what did you think of the Movie Man of Steel? (link)
| |
Personally, I enjoyed it. I'm not really a fan of action movies unless it involves a superhero. It was pretty slow in the beginning but picked up towards the middle. I thought the revamp of the storyline was good and the actors were cast well. I also liked the little remake they did to Supermans costume. For me, it wasn't the best movie in the world and sure, it could have been better (but really, what movie doesn't have something that could have done something differently to be better?) But I liked it enough that I've been wanting to get it on dvd and rewatch it for awhile now. Lots of people are hyper critical about remakes, especially when it's about superheroes from classic comics. I'm not one of those people though, so I'm not too hard to please when it comes to movies. Overall, I'd probably give it a 7/10. Maybe higher after I watch it again since it has been awhile since it's been out in theatres and I'm sure I've forgotten things.

Is Demi Lovato against the LGBT community? Like, I know she's religious. All answers appreciated. (link)
|
Demi Lovato has never made in a secret that she fully supports the LGBT community and marriage equality. She's even just recently guest starred on Glee with a lesbian role.
Here's a link where you can read about her talking about her role on Glee http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/09/demi-lovato-lesbian-glee_n_3894026.html
Here's a link where you can read about her tweeting support for marriage equality http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1709619/supreme-court-gay-marriage-ruling-celebrity-reactions.jhtml
Here's a link where you can see Demi supporting the NOH8 movement, along with other celebrities https://www.google.com/search?q=demi+lovato+lgbt&rlz=1C1CHMO_enUS478US478&espv=210&es_sm=122&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=rxNyUuyoDornsATx94FQ&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1024&bih=457#es_sm=122&espv=210&q=demi+lovato+noh8&tbm=isch&imgdii=_

I got into a fight with me stepdad this afternoon. He really pissed me off and I freaked out and kicked at him and hit his stomach.
Now I'm afraid he will tell my mom when she gets home. What can I do? (link)
|
Nothing. The only way what you did would be considered okay is if were self defense from him attacking you which obviously this was not the case. And that's not incentive to lie about that, either.
You assaulted your stepdad, you should feel lucky he didn't call the police on you. "I freaked out" wouldn't cut it with the cops.
What you did isn't okay. At all. He's mostly going to tell your mother and there's nothing you can do about it. If he actually does keep quiet about it, well, that's that.

I was talking to my boyfriend and I suddenly got a random text from someone. His (Lets just call him Jim) profile picture looked kind of fake and so did his name, so I asked my boyfriend if he knew him. He said yes.
Jim asked me if I was dating my boyfriend, but he asked right away... I thought it seemed kind of weird so I just ignored the message and blocked him.
My boyfriend has some jealous friends that are girls, so I'm kind of assuming it was one of them but my boyfriend said he was just with Jim... Am I overreacting? (link)
|
The way this story was going my first thought was that it was your boyfriend making a fake account to see if you'd cheat on him with it(assuming it is fake)
I don't think you're necessarily overreacting because both scenarios are possible and have happened multiple times before to people. For now I'd just ignore it. Next time if you suspect a fake account is trying to add you, do a reverse google image search with their picture and see what comes up. If it comes up all over the internet, they're most likely fake.

Hey everyone! Well, here's the thing. I am reading books and I used to not read at all but I do now. I read the genres of horror,cancer related issues, suspense, and teenage bullying stories. If anyone has any book suggestions I would highly appreciate it. Thank you! (link)
| |
I read a lot myself, however I read different genres than you so I can't be of much help. You might like the books Hate List by Jennifer Brown and The List by Siobhan Vivian though, they have to do with bullying. I definitely recommend those if you haven't already read them.

I have this coworker, and he and I have become pretty good friends. I think I'm falling for him, and it appears to be mutual, I can just sense it. Before, about a year ago, we were acquaintances and kind of joked around. Then our friendship started growing, and we became pretty good friends, to the point where we have a 6 hour long conversations on Facebook about serious stuff, funny stuff, the whole sha-bang. Now it's sort of taken an awkward turn. When we're scheduled on the same shifts, at first we are sooooooo awkward. Then as the shift goes on, we're close again. He's even started playfully teasing, and we've got some witty banter going on. Great development, right? Awesome news, eh? WRONG.
See, there's an important factor I think we both like to forget... I'm a hardcore Christian, and he's an Atheist. It says on his Facebook he's a "Proud Atheist", and not that Facebook has the overall say in life, but if he took the time to write that and become part of a FB group with that same title, then I'm thinking he's pretty sure about it. I'm very serious about dating/relationships. I'm 18, and I've never dated anyone. I didn't want to date in high school because 9/10 times they fail, and are just drama-infested wastes of time. So, I date with purpose, I don't mess around. I can't date anyone who I couldn't see myself marrying. Not that I have to know RIGHT AWAY, or even in the first year. But if I knew I'd never marry that person right from get-go, I can't date them. Whether addicted to meth, never want to have kids, that sort of thing. I graduated in 2012, and since then I've just been waiting to meet the right dude to date. And... I think he takes the cake. He's intelligent, yet sensitive. Hilarious, caring, understanding, supportive, confident not big-headed, musically inclined, and he's witty, yet mature in the important ways. He's a nerd, like me. He's perfect in every way except one! HE'S AN ATHEIST. Whyyyyyyyy me?
I know there's no way I'm ever going to marry an atheist. My future husband will at least be aware of the fact that Jesus is our Lord and Savior. I probably sound snobby, but think about it. How would we raise our kids? Our mindsets in life would be so different. I'd be living for the Lord, alone. But... I like this guy a lot. I'm crushed. I think about him when I fall asleep and when I wake up. And I'll think "Why don't we date- oh yeah. Crap." and my heart sinks. I'm trying to cling on to some hope. I suppose my question is, do atheists convert often?
I wouldn't want him to make that change for me. Not at all. I'd want him to do it because HE wanted to. I want him to know the love of God, feel the powerful emotion the Holy Spirit can bring you, see life with God's Goggles, if you will, haha. So, what would you suggest I do? Do you have any advice/suggestions? Or should I just suck it up and move on? Thank you for reading. (link)
|
I have been an atheist for two years and nothing on the planet could change my mind unless Jesus himself knocked on my front door.
This is my point of view, I cannot speak for others. Everyone is their own person.
If it's a problem for you, I suggest you move on. There's nothing more annoying in this world then someone trying to convert you.

Does getting a tattoo behind your ear hurt? I want to get a tiny, little heart back there or an arrow pointing up as if it's saying to keep my head up. See, I have a very low pain tolerance and that's why I'm worried, I also do not like needles because I was on a medicine that made me get blood drawn six times and I hated it but I never passed out or anything because of that. I've always been that good girl that never broke the rules. I'm in college and I really want to do something like this. Thanks! (link)
|
All tattoos hurt. Period. It's to be expected. Granted, some area hurt wore then others. And then your own personal pain tolerance comes into play.
I personally have a high pain tolerance and am not afraid of needles so I wasn't too bothered getting my tattoos on my feet or forearm. From what I've been told by others, tattoos behind the ears are mild in pain. But this also comes back to what your personal pain tolerance is.
Low pain tolerance and afraid of needles could be a problem. You don't want to freak out in the middle of your tattoo and be left with a half down job or a messed up job. Make sure you REALLY want this and it's not just a rebelling thing from always being the "good girl".

I can't figure out how to turn on emoticons on my iPhone 5. Does anoyne here know? THANK YOU! (link)

I just have a 1st gen iPad, but I don't see why it would be any different as far as adding the emoji keyboard goes.
Go to Settings > General > Keyboard > International Keyboards > Add New Keyboard > Then find Emoji.
Ater you set it up you'll see a little world symbol next to the keyboard when you're typing. Hit it to open up the emoji keyboard.

I am transitioning to natural hair. Before I started transitioning I bleached and colored my hair. The dye has faded and now my hair is orange. I want to dye my hair but I heard it can ruin curl pattern. Does it ruin the curl pattern? (link)

I've never used regular hair dye, sorry. But henna can sometimes loosen your curls. It's not permanent, but it happens.

At the end of November I found my biological siblings. I have a brother who is a 36 year old grown man. We bagan to talk through text and on the phone and seemed to gotten along well. My problem is that in the past month, he has sent me 3 digusting photos of his penis. I explained to him the first 2 times in a calm mannr that I am his sister and it is comple yr elt unacceptable behavior and makes me very uncomfortable. The third time, I lost my patience and decided to tell him like it was. He didnt seem to take me seriously...he is a great guy and we get along sooo well when he acts normal. Now I am in a debate whether to meet him and hope he processes it or run for the hills. I met with my biological sister and told her about him flirting with me, I did not tell her about his photos because I felt it was better unsaid. Is he not getting it? Maybe he is a creep?... Do I try and meet him? Help (link)
|
No, don't meet him. He's as creepy as creepy gets! For me, the first time he sent you a picture and you told him to stop was you giving him the benefit of the doubt. That's more than I would have done, I would have cut off contact immediately after that! You gave him another chance and then he broke that chance. He is CREEPY and a potential rapist/child molester. He's not taking your no seriously when you tell him to stop sending you photos of his penis, how do you know he'll take your no serious if he tries to rape you? I know that sounds extreme and unlikely, but no I think he's definitely capable. What kind of person sends those pictures to his sister, regardless of whether you grew up together or not? A disgusting pig, that's what. PLEASE for your own safety DO NOT meet him. You don't need to meet him in person to realize he's gross, disturbing, and needs some seriously professional help.
I know it sucks because you've just found your siblings but honestly, you do not want this person in your life. By all means, continue a relationship with your sister but seriously, your brother is trouble. Stay away from him.

First off, I'd like to say that I know nobody here is a doctor. I'm not looking for a diagnosis, I'm just looking for opinions, maybe somebody here has experienced this.
Also, do not just tell me to see a doctor, that's too pricey for me at the moment without medical insurance.
This may be long because of backstory I feel like I should add but may not be needed.
Alright so, last week I was convinced I got external hemorrhoids. I had pain when I pooped, some blood, and a decent sized bump on my anus after straining during a large poop that was in no way coming out naturally.
Now the thing is, I've always had large poops and slight constipation growing up. There has always been pain because of these large poops and the pain caused me to go a couple weeks 'holding it in' when I was about 8 because I was just so scared of it. My family has never eaten a particularly healthy diet and it doesn't help that the only veggies I can stomach are potatoes and corn. (I'm currently trying to fix the constipating and large/hard poops by drinking more water, eating some more foods high in fiber and taking fiber powers packets or stir in water.
I always strain when I poop because I'm always slightly constipated, and I poop every few days rather than everyday.
For the passed few weeks I noticed a slight bump on my anus when I would wipe after pooping, it didn't hurt or itch. I ignored it - probably in denial of possible hemorrhoids. It wasn't until last week after that particularly large poop that the cut really grew in size and convinced me I had hemorrhoids. Immediately I looked up home treatments and I now have some TUCKS products coming in the mail to help.
Now just a few minutes ago, my 'hemorrhoid' was really itchy. I tried ignoring it, not wanting to irritate it. Eventually it got so bad that I lost self control to I went to the bathroom to gently wipe with babywipes to relieve some itching (it worked). I noticed there wasn't a bump. None. But my anus itches and when I shifted a certain way on the toilet there was a sharp pain on my anus for not even a second and it went away.
Now I'm wondering, do I have hemorrhoids or just a cut on my anus?
From what I understood while reading about hemorrhoids, the bump stayed. It could be removed with surgery or pain could be relieved by applying the appropriate products on it. Or am I wrong?
I'm not entirely sure, which is why I seek some opinions from people who may have experienced this or just know more about it than I do. (link)

I see people saying "kik me!" sometimes now but I don't know what they mean? I am guessing they don't want me to apply my foot to them with great force, right?
Help? (link)
| |
Kik is an sms (or texting) app for smartphones/tablets. Somebody saying "Kik me" is basically saying "text me" except using the Kik app and not your actual phone number.

So i hacked my friends facebook account 5 times in a row and i did something pretty bad to the girls he likes, but they both forgive really easily and they did. Then for mistake i tried hacking his phone.. And ruined it by making all his information disappear. Though after he ruined my pc by turning it off and on by the button and not on shut down. When i skyped him he started insulting me and saying that he would beat me up, i know he cant because hes too scared to do it, i just said and replied to him to do beat me up... So?? What should i do?? If he starts beating me up should i fight back or do nothing?? (link)
|
What you did is so wrong, "friends" don't do that. You are not a friend. I also find it hard to believe your "friend" ruined your computer by turning it off with the button and not using shut down? I can't even count how many times I've done that in my life (even if it isn't recommended) and my computer was fine afterwards.
As for the fighting, he has every reason to be angry with you but physical violence is unnecessary and won't solve anything. Talk to him, tell him you're sorry and you don't want to fight. You're the wrong one here, you should fix this.
If by chance he (or anyone) DOES take a swing at you, get away and find help as fast as you can. If you can't, the obvious answer is to defend yourself.
