so, ive always heard that lice like clean hair, because it makes it easier for them to move around. is that true?

thanks for all your help!

lol yes i've heard thats true by many people.
but it doesn't mean you will automatically get it,
i wash my hair everyday [even though that isn't always healthy for your actual hair] but i've never had hair.
its best if your hair isn't very greasy to only wash it everyother day that way your hair isn't as clean for lice.

good luck :D

prom is on saturday. i am going with my boyfriend. the plan after prom was to go back to my friends house and everyone in our group would sleep over. last night i told my boyfriend the plans and he was like ok thats fine. then a couple seconds later he was like "actually, im going to jake's house after prom we can get alcohol and ride around and stuff". i didn't really feel like arguing so i just said alright. i told my best friend about it today and she was mad and texted him saying "good job youre ditching your girlfriend to get drunk". normally i could care less if he wants to go out with his friends and get drunk or whatever. but its prom night, the only night we have an excuse to sleep in the same house together haha. would it be wrong to tell him not to go to jakes? or should i just let him?

haha i would so be mad about this. the whole time i was reading it i was thinking the same thing when you said "the only night we have an excuse to sleep in the same house together haha."
to be honest, i'd say something to him about it. and i would include the fact that its the only time you can sleep in the same house together. he should be excited about that. just let him know you arnt trying to be controlling, and that it would just be fun because its prom night.
if he still doesn't wanna spend the night with you, i'd let him stay with jake. but i would make sure he knew i was pissed at him.

good luck :D

13/F

so I like this guy named Tyler.
He is in my homeroom and in my last period.
He does not know that I like him.
I don't really talk to him much, but every once in a while i do.
Me and one of my best friend Blake hang out a lot.
And not as flirting or anything like that.
Well, Tyler's and Blake's lockers are really close.
And Tyler asks Blake if me and him were going out.
Does that mean that he is interested or curious?

it really all depends on the way he asked.
but usually guys are interested when they ask, girls just tend to be nosey when they do.

good luck :D

I want to put highlights in my hair. I don't want a simple color like blonde or anything. I want like pink or green or blue (etc.) HIGHLIGHTS. can someone please help me?
I have semi-dark hair, and if you want a picture to help, here's my Email

daughter_of_inuyasha@hotmail.com

hey (:
i just got purple put in my hair for prom,
if you want a picture.. then ask me in my inbox.
but anyways, my hair is dark dark brown,
so everytime i've gotten a wild color highlight put in, i've had to bleach the hair first.
they just put a cap on your head and pull random hairs through, then bleach that, and then put the color dye on it.
last year when i got semi-permanent she locked it in twice, which is like sealing it so it won't wash out, and it didn't wash out for a long time, but when it did it was just blonde highlights. still looked good though.
thats probably what they will do to yours because your hair is kind of dark.
and if she uses similar dye like she used in mine, when you wash your hair, the water will probably be the same color as your dye, but don't worry it won't completely wash out.

good luck :D

so all through elemtry school into middle school i had this crush on a kid, lets call him mike. and i could never ever tell him i liked him, because my best friend, lets call this one jay, adored him. and was upsessed with him. so i never told anyone i liked him. 7th grade he got sent to rehab, and i kinda forgot about him. now, 3 years later, he is back. and i hung out with him, and my new best friend, lets call her shelly. well i started liking him. and then he tells me that he thinks shelly is hot. and then he also told our friend ron and ron told shelly. and shelly started liking him. though she knows i like him. and yesterday they ran away from me and our other friends and dissappeared for 3 hours... and today i walked in on them hooking up. they have known each other for 3 days... and she knows i like him. like is it bad that im mad? like should i be this upset? cause im like furious and disstroyed. im so lost. help?

yes you should be mad!
she shouldn't hook up with someone you have a crush on. its like girl code, well friend code, you just don't do it.
and i could possibly understand if she did it after knowing him for a long time and liking him longer than you,
but she hasn't. she has only known him for three days.
i'm sorry. let her know how you feel, don't hold anything back.


good luck :D

I really like one of my guy friends. A LOT LOT LOT LOT. Today, I was talking with him on the phone and I told him I liked him and it turns out he likes me to. Well, then he asked me like on a scale of 1-10 how much so I told him and he said he only liked me like a 7. Then he said he liked my bestfriend also, but only like a 3 since they just met a few days ago. I was a little sad to hear this but I shrugged it off because he said he liked me more. I was all happy and then he had to go eat dinner so I called my best friend to tell her the exciting news. She was like "oh that's great i'm so happy for you too! I'm glad you're finally moving on from so and so!".((I had a recent nasty breakup that left me crushed for a while)). Anyway, then this guy calls me back and so I join us all so it's on multiparty. They kept talking. Then he told her he liked her. She's the type of girl that falls in love with any guy that says something nice about her or likes her. So they started flirting while I sat there, not even having to talk. They both just forgot I was there. Later, I went onto Myspace and they were on. I message my guy friend and he read it but didn't reply. So then my friend messaged me and asked me to switch something around on her profile, since we have each other's password and stuff. She told me not to go into her inbox. Naturally, I did, and I regret that very much. She had been talking to my crush after they both hung up and he told her that he lied and he actually liked her much more then what he told me. I kept reading these messages and apparently she has a secret bf she doesn't tell me about. Then he asks her if he asked her out what would she say and she says "yes". I am really crushed and balling my eyes out right now. She only met him a few days ago and i've known him since forever. He was like "what's wrong" and I can't tell either of them because I snooped and I shouldn't have been in the first place! I feel like an idiot for believing either of them, and I really don't trust them right now. I know i'm probably just being dramatic, but I don't know how to deal. Please help, what should I do?

goodness, i've been in this situation before! i am so sorry for you.
i think the best thing to do is to tell her you read her messages, and if you want you can tell him you did too.
this is not ALL your fault, whats done is done, you can't erase the fact that you looked and now that you know they both lied to you.
let her know how you feel, and don't let her throw it back on you because you snooped. she did worse. make sure she knows how much you liked him and that its horrible she lied to you, and was planning on going out with him after she knew how much you liked him.
and then talk to him. tell him you really like him, and he should of just been honest with you from the beginning about his feelings for your friend and that it was wrong for him to lead you on like that.

if you need anything else, i'm here. (:

good luck :D

im 15 yr old guy and think im gay i really like this guy a lot he likes me too we hang around each other a lot does it mean im gay?

if you like him,
as in you daydream about kissing him, hand holding, hugging.. things in that area. you are gay.
and if he likes you too, in that way, hes probably gay too.
so yes, if you have romantic feelings for him, you are.

good luck :D

So, I know if you have sex with a guy and you're a virgin, he'll "pop your cherry" but what is it like? I mean is it really awkward or something? And no, i'm not having sex anytime soon lol, i'm just curious :]

having sex isn't the only way to "pop a cherry" you can do it by playing a really intense sport, using a tampon, even riding a horse. the only thing that happens is you bleed and your hymen "thin piece of skin inside of your vagina" breaks. thats why they call it popping a cherry. its different on different people, sometimes they don't even realize that its been popped.

My best friend has been going through a lot of trouble involving her family. the problem is even though i know she is going through lot she keeps saying she will talk to me about it but doesn't. we are really close and i don't know how to help her. recenlty she has started flaking out on classes. how can i help her out?

give her some time and let her come to you when she feels its best.
but if you sense something is VERY wrong, you confront her about it. let her know you care and that you just want to help.

if the time thing doesn't work, write her a note explaining to her that you love her and you're always going to be there to help her and that you just want her to open up so that you can. let her know you are worried about her flaking out on classes and that you know shes better than that. just make sure she knows that you truly care and that you arnt trying to be pushy or anything.

i just started going to a psychologist once a week becuase i was just found out to have depression. In the meantime, i ALWAYS over think things, and its just like i feel everything 10x worse than everyone else! I hurt so much, even the slightest thing. Like I think about the boy I like, and i want to cry. Is there anything i can do to make myself feel better? Like any good ways to get myself to stop over-thinking so much and just be happy? PLEASE help!

i had that problem too last year.
i went to the psychologist, and went on medicine.
i started going in like september 06 and stopped in jan 07.
it take about two months for you to really start changing, but trust me it will get better.
now i no longer feel any of those feelings, i got confidence back and i began trusting others and i stopped worrying about stuff too much.
i'm sure the same will happen for you, just give it time.
its tough admitting you're depressed and that you need a psychologists help, i'm glad you decided to take control and turn your situation around.

my best idea to make yourself feel better is do what your therapist tells you to. take your medicine if you're on some, and try to do things that make you happy. if you find yourself worrying about something, go play a game or something to distract you, don't let your thoughts get the best of you.

hang out with your friends more, get a new hobby, change the way you look. just start doing things that are what you want to do. its okay to be a little selfish.

if you need anything else, just leave me a message, i'll be happy to help.

good luck :D

If you have oral sex are you still a virgin? or is sex, sex, or is it just something sexual because my friend said it's concidered half but that dosen't make any sense it's either your a virgin or your not.

many people have different views on this.
my dad loves to give me this debate.

he says that anything dealing with someone's mouth in someone elses area, or hand, and full on sex makes you not a virgin.
he says that its all about being pure.
and once you start doing things that you think are not pure, you are no longer a virgin.

i on the other hand think the only thing that makes you not a virgin is when you actually have sex [penis in vagina]

okays well im 14 and a female. theres this guy i really like, and im pretty sure he likes me. we talk all the time. and flirt. his friends are telling him to ask me out and my friends are tellin me to ask him out. im thinkin aobut askin him out, but what if he says no. our friendship would be weired. but i think we should give it a chance by going out. i think we would make a good couple. do you think i should take the chance and ask him out??? or wait for him too???
thanks :]

if your in a moment, and you feel like its the perfect time to ask him out, i say go for it.
he might be too scared to do it and sometimes to get things in life you have to go for it.
but if its an awkward moment, and you just bring it out of the blue, it might freak him out and you don't want that. just wait til the timing is right.

good luck :D

heyy. im 14 and a female. well i have had some boyfriends all my life. and i have had a kiss before. but that was a long time ago. and i would like to know if you could give me any advice on kissing or about makeing out??? just some tips or something so i know alittle more. thanks :]

a simple kiss is easy. a pop kiss rather. you just press your lips against theirs and let go.
a long simple kiss is better though, you hold your lips to theirs longer.
and with making out you do a bunch of long simple kisses and open your mouth slightly,
you can wait for him to put his tongue in your mouth, or put yours in his.
just dont shove it so hard or deep in his mouth where he cant breathe.
do what feels natural. kissing is fun.
if you don't know what to do with your hands, i would suggest grabbing his face or holding his waist. just don't leave your arms hanging limp.
and if its your first time kissing, i would suggest you don't leave your eyes open, it might freak him out, or the view you get might freak you out. lol so beware of that, only do it when you've done it a couple times and you're comfortable with the person.
and if you're kissing the person for awhile like full makeout, try new things like sucking on his bottom lips or sucking on his tongue.
just do what feels right, not things that are awkward to you that you think you should do.

good luck :D

im 15.f. i have this friend thatt is not close friend but we do trust each other alot...but were not like realli long time known friend we met this year..and became reali good friends.. she has a b.f and and his name is (D) so then this guy named (D) was talkign to me andhe goe simgoing to break up with my g.f tomorrow..and when i found out that (D) is the same guy my friend is dating i was in shock ..i called right away after talking to him and told her everything she stared crying and said shell call me back and i was liek ok...

but now they broke up ad me and him are talking and he keeps asking me to goona date and like what ever and it old him shes my realli good friend and that i cant do tat to her and he goes wil wait an dimlike will wait a long time...and he oes like not long long but enough time..and now i dont no what to do....and please dont say tell her abot it and ask heror something like that because that not the possibilitu i have right now..yea i do liek him and ye ai like my friend to but it wwasnt beacuse of me they broke up ....

so please i dont no what to do......help!!!
i will rate u thanx =)

in my opinion, he seems like a player.
do you really want to date a guy that tells other girls that he is going to dump his girlfriend before even doing it and then immediately starts trying to get with someone else? i doubt it.
plus if you like this girl, i don't think its right to date her ex.
especially not RIGHT after. she'll probably end up thinking you lied about all of it and that you were talking to him this whole time behind her back. i think things will just get ugly if you date him.
but it is your choice, so go with whatever you think is best.

I was wondering whats the best way to ask my mom to go on the pill without her thinking that my boyfriend and i are having sex..because we dont. we think about it, but our values overrule the idea. anyways, my period is 7 days long, sometimes a few days more than that and always heavy...is that a good reason to go on it?

tell her your period is irregular and that you never know when its going to happen. say going on the pill will regulate it, and hopefully/possibly shorten it.

i tend to get wet quickly if i get horny or touched by a guy, even if its over my pants
if a guy goes to finger me and im wet already, is that weird?

no its not weird.
and its better to finger a girl wet than dry,
because that'll hurt if its dry.
and he might think that because you're dry, that you arn't into it.

My bf never shuts up about his penis. His jokes center around that. He constantly tells everyone it's big. I'm sick of hearing it. I don't know why he does that so much. Is he insecure or just dirty minded 24/7? Are most guys this way?

most guys are perverts. they think about sex all the time. if it truly is big, he probably isn't insecure and is probably just cocky. but size doesn't ALWAYS matter. if you can work whatcha got, then thats something to brag about lol but he could just be dirty minded too. or both. tell him to shut up about it. and let him know how bad it bothers you. it should stop.

good luck :D

SO theres this great guy who i really like (14/f). Hes amazing and I've liked him forever but my friend has this thing for him and he kinda had a thing for her and they went out for a while. He made out with her and she was his first. Well i really like him and i think i might have a chance. Now heres the difficult part. Theres this great guy who i think of as an amazing friend that i never want to lose as a friend. He comforts me when im scared (hes a big guy and beats up any kid that is mean to me) and i love him. LIKE A BROTHER. nothing more. So he likes me, and i found this out from people. Now i cant even talk to him! I'm too afraid and i don't want him to like me but i don't want to hurt him! So should i tell him i know? or just let him get over me? OR WHAT?! ah i want to try to move on with guy one but guy two is too important and i don't want guy 1 to get over me. what should i do? thanks for reading

since he didn't actually tell you himself that he likes you,
i wouldn't worry about it.
maybe it isn't true, or maybe he just wants to save the friendship to.
and its not your fault you only see him as a brother,
so i would go after the one you actually like.
guy 2 shouldn't get mad because for all he knows, you have no idea that he likes you.
if he ends up saying something to you about it,
explain that you only see him as a friend and that you love him like a brother.
if he truly cares for you, which i'm sure he does,
he'll be okay with it and will eventually get over you.

good luck :D

so me and my boyfriend just broke up around 2 weeks ago. and he asked me back out a couple of times, but i finally said that we should wait for a couple of months so we won't have as many problems as we did before. so then, we waited.. for about like.. 3 days so far, and then we put taken on all of our pages and stuff like that to know that we're single but not interested. and i have a best friend, who's a guy, named matt. and my boyfriend doesn't like it when i hang out with matt and stuff like that, but he didn't say that i couldn't. because i'm single, you know? and last night, matt has a little sister named tiffany who's also my best friend. and i knew both of them my whole life practically. and then we updated my xanga since i haven't updated for a year. and matt typed stuff on it.. and supposedly he teased me and stuff like that. and my boyfriend read it and texted me saying "i don't like it when you hang out with matt when you're at tiffany's house." and then he goes "I don't think i would want to continue on with you anymore.. sorry." and then he said that teasing was flirting, which i'm not sure if it is or not. and then later on he goes, "this is the last straw, i'm deleting you from my life." and he deleted me off of his page and stuff, and then his away message said "practicing with my band. i'm so pumped you wouldn't even know x]" and he texted me saying "your nothing to me now you can go ahead and do whatever the fuck you want. i promise that i'm for reals." and that hurt, because i would want him in my life.. i don't want to be nothing towards him. and i know that time helps me get over him, but i don't want to be depressed about it in the meantime. and hanging out with my friends works at times too, but not all the time.. i hide my sadness.

so please help me? i'm very tired of getting hurt, and i still really like him.

wow. he got insanely jealous. if you miss him, explain the situation and let him know you still care about him even though he "erased you." another option would to just give him his time and space and not doing anything, but it sounds like you really care about him, and if you do, i wouldn't take that route. try talking to him and letting him know how things actually went. even if you don't wanna date him and you just wanna be his friend, you should still let him know how you feel. who knows, he might stop being an asshole and apologize. hopefully he will. if he doesn't, atleast you tried. and one day he'll probably regret it.

good luck :D
