Going through a major transitional phase in my life has made me much more aware of the other people around me and my relationships to them. I'm graduating college this year and entering law school in the fall, leaving behind the love of my life and embarking on something that will probably the hardest thing I've ever done.

I've got 21 years of experience in a lot of different fields.. I've been told I give great advice, although of course I never follow it myself!

16.Male Hey I'm not sure if it's becase of finals lately, but even before last week, I've found that I wake up and get a headache...really bad ones. When I go to sleep I usually don't have one, actually havn't at all. So why is this?

I have two pillows, a soft feather one that kinda sinks, and then one of those foam ones with the bend in them. I switch on and off, sometimes use both with a different one on top, but either way as soon as I wake up a headache hits me. Why is this? I can't take medicine on an empty stomach right away, so what should I do? Thanks. (link)
You can take painkillers with a slice of bread and some milk. Try switching to only one pillow to put less stress on your neck. Where on your head does it hurt? Are you sensitive to light? If you're sensitive, it might be a migraine, so try drinking coffee. If the coffee makes it worse, though, it's not a migraine, and the tylenol should help.


I like this guy and hes punk but im preppy we talk online, on the phone (once in a while), and have gone to the movies together. but he always flirts with my friends idk what to do. maybe im paranoid but i think they flirt back. i dont no wut to do when he compiments them on their looks because he knows i like him! what to do? (link)
He's probably just being sweet. Lots of people just flirt to be nice. Tell him how you really feel and see what happens.


Hello Everyone!
I am 14/f and the first time I got my period was in February of this year. I am a 32 A. My mom is a 38 C. However, I am short for my age (which I got from my aunts) Since I got my height from my aunts (who are A cups as well) will I probably have the same size breast as them or my mom? (link)
Hard to say. My mom is a DD and I'm an A (I'm 21). I take after my father's side. However, I'm short (5'1") like my mom, and I have a lot of the same facial features.

They might get bigger now that you've started your period, or they might not. I had a friend of mine who didn't fully develop her chest until she was 17!

So, just wait and see, and enjoy not having to deal with boobs being in the way!


okay i think i started my period,
but im not sure
when i wipe my self i have small dots of blood
very light dots ive been having them for 3 days now
what is it?

It's called spotting, it's normal to have it in between periods or right before. Unless you're on birth control pills, they're rarely regular. Not to worry!


One of my Vaginal Inner Lips is longer than the other.
I've read other girls who've had this and people have said that it happens, and its normal.
I just wanted to double check.
Is this ok? (link)
Completely normal. Some women do have plastic surgery to change it, but there's nothing wrong. And honestly, unless you're getting paid to display it, why bother?


If I wore a reg. size tampon and put it in at 12 and then woke up around 8 maybe nine will I be at a health risk? (link)
The longer you leave it in, the more you leave yourself open for Toxic Shock, UTI or a yeast infection. Better to wear a pad at night and let it breathe. :)


So, a couple times a day, maybe like 5 or 6, I get this thing where it feels like to get a good breath I have to breath really deeply in and out for like 5-10 minutes. It also always feel slike my airway is a little constricted but more so during these "breathing episodes". I went to the doctor yesterday but he said everything was fine but yesterday I didn't have to breath deeply for 5-10 minutes to get a good breath, it was just to feeling of constant constriction. Anyways, the doctor sent me to radiology of the hospital to get x-rays which turned out fine. It's especially hard to sleep at night as well. During these "breathing episodes" I also get really light headed and dizzy. Does anybody have any ideas of what i might have or how to help it or what to do next? Btw, Im 14/f. (link)
Are you stressed or anxious at any point during the day? That could be it, too. I'd go get another opinion.


There's this guy in my History and Math class that's very popular and goodlooking. Recently, he's been acting different around me. Unusually nice. He complimented on my shirt and necklace, and asked how my tutoring was coming along, etc. He's also lately been acting really cocky, but in a playful way. I don't know if he's flirting. Does it seem so? Because I'm confused as to whether I should flirt back. He has a girlfriend, and that might make me look like an asshole (I don't have a crush on him at all, by the way). Also, if he wasn't flirting I would look like an asshole. What do you think I should do? (link)
He might just be being friendly. If you're not interested, don't flirt back - especially if he's already seeing someone. Things might get a little dramaesque, you know? I'd be friendly back, but be a little guarded in case something strange is going on.


okay so i want to get a new phone plan so i was wondering if anyone had what im looking for and could tell me about their plan and what not. here are the following things i want:

~ a flip phone for under $100
~ A plan that is less than $30 a month
~ atleast 200 min a month
~ either a good texting plan (like 300 for $5) or free in texting (virizon only)
~ free in calling (for virizon only plans)
~ no funny charges and overal good rating


i would just go to the phone company i know but they are always a pain and im tired of what i have now (virgin mobile) (link)
I use Cingular, and they've been great to me so far. You won't find a plan that's less than $30 anymore. You may consider paying by-usage, but many companies charge you an extra $1 per day that you use the phone, which would probably be more than a regular plan. Cingular has free in-calling, but if you're looking to call otehr verizon numbesr, you'll have to ask them about it. They also have 30 txt messages for $2.99 a month.


im 13/f and i've just gotten my first boyfriend. He thinks of it as serious and so do I, he got me a dozen roses for Valentines and had them delivered to my 6th period class. I really like him and I wand to kiss him. I know this sounds incredibly stupid but does anyone have any advice because I'm really nervous and I don't know what to do and we're going to the movies saturday and I'm pretty sure he's gonna... (link)
That's sweet that he sent you flowers!

Don't worry about the kissing. When it's right, it'll happen. It'll be awkward -- all first time kissing is! -- but it will certainly be sweet. :)


on the phone bill does it show outgoing numbers and does it show imcoming numbers? (link)
Some companies do show both, yes.


do herbs really work? if they do which ones help with anxiety attacks or over-worrying (link)
Some say that St. John's Wort works best for anxiety, but with any medicine there are side effects. In order to find a supplement that is best for you, seek out an alternative medicine friendly physician. Good luck!


I met this guy 2 years ago while we both we legally separated.I was not the other woman.I just had my divorce finalized but he is still ongoing.A lot of nasty custody and money issues on his side.We both had a separate apartments.We met and fall in love.Everytime my boyfriend faces a problem, he will withdraw and break up with me. He has problem having access to his children and was deppressed for not being able to see them for a period of 5 months strecth.His wife use the kids as pawns.We broke up everytime because of this.He will then come back again when he thinks he has sort out the issues. His wife met me and him while in the restaurant and eversince that, she has given him unlimited access to the kids. He is so overwhelmed with this new arrangement and now he said that he can't do both.Having a relationship and his kids in the picture.He broke up with me again. I know he is confused.This man was married for 15 years since the age of 22. He misses the family life but he don't love the wife anymore.Both had an affair and he left the marriage.I am deeply in love with this man and everytime he comes back, i will never give him a hard time cause i know how much his kids meant to him.I am disappointed with his decisions. He told me that he is going away with the kids and the wife for a holiday which is something he has not done so for the past 3 years.He wants to be close with the kids again. I am so heartbroken right now as i don't know if he will go back to his wife after being separated for 2 and half years. His wife wanted him back badly and she is trying so hard to have him back in his life. I am stuck.I really love this man but i'm torn as well because i really believe of the vows we make in marriage but my guts tell me that he is not going back with her. Too many resentments from the divorce proceedings and multiple affairs from both sides.Please help me.I keep thinking there is hope that he will come back again once he smooth this one out again.I can't quit thinking about this and i really believes i can be happy with this man. (link)
It's not worth the heartache. He's got a on his plate that he needs to deal with on his own. He's withdrawn, because he dosen't know what to do and doesn't want to get you involved. Don't get yourself involved, either -- you'll just set yourself up for more heartache.

Let him go sort out his life. It won't be easy for you, but in the long run you're far better off than having to deal with him being on-again, off-again with you.
