I currently have a t- mobile phone under the t mobile company. My question is; are there any cell phones that I can use that are not from t-mobile? ex. can i use verizon phones? (link)
| |
I don't think so only because T Mobile phones require SIM cards and Verizon phones don't.

I got like unwanted facial hair, as in on my upper lips, chin, and alot on my arms. How do I get rid of it without shaving or waxing because my mom doesnt want me doing this stuff being only 13. (link)
| |
When people say that hair grows back darker and thicker after you shave it, they are mistaken. It's just an old wives take that has been proven false time and time again. So if you want the quick and easy way to get rid of it, shave it or wax it.

i really hate when people smoke weed. the thing is like everyone i'm around smokes it. i don't know why it bothers me so much because it really doesn't do anything to you but it just bothers me soooo much. i think it's just because if its people i care about i don't want them to get hurt or get caught. does any one know how i can make it not bother me when it's people who i don't care about as much as like my boyfriend or best friend? or to not even worry if it is them?
or just give me all the bad things it does and that can reassure me that its stupid.
ha i know i might sound crazy right now butttt i don't want to get peer pressured so i want to know all the bad things about it. (link)

Good for you for NOT smoking weed. Many people believe that weed doesn't do anything to you simply because it's not addictive. That's not true AT ALL.
-Smoking one blunt is the same as smoking 4 cigarettes at once so your lungs are taking a huge beating.
-It kills many, many brain cells. Why do you think the stereotypical pot smoker is always dumb as a board?
-It's a gateway drug so A LOT of people who smoke drugs like heroin or cocaine started off smoking weed.
-Weed inhibits your ability to learn and absorb information so if you plan on going to college, stay off the grass.
-Many, many people who use it end up getting the munchies so there's a good chance that those who smoke regularly are going to gain weight.
-It can destroy your short term memory
-It can cause anxiety and panic attacks.
-While it's not considered "addictive" there is a proven psychological dependency that comes with it.
-Those who take it have a MUCH greater risk of getting cancer.
There are probably MANY more negative affects but those are just the ones that I can think of. Again, it's awesome that you aren't just following the crowd and doing something that is VERY bad for you. So many people think that weed isn't harmful which is NOT the case at all.

alright..soo iam 16 iam going to be 17 soon and i really dont want to have sex. like i think my age is wayyy too young to even be thinking about it. but all the guys my age or older already expect it. i really dont know what to do, cause you can never really find decent guys anymore that will wait. and if you tell them you dont want to have sex they will either keep pushing you or just leave you right then and there...i dont really know what to do, and i DONT want to have sex expecially not yet. (link)
|
If you think that the guys your age want to have sex and you're not comfortable with that, then don't date. Yes, dating can be fun but from personal experience, being single can be even better.
Take some time to yourself to observe your friends in their relationships. You can learn SO much simply by learning from them.
Yes I know waiting for that special guy to come along SUCKS however, when he does finally show up, it will be well worth it.
I believe that every time you're in a serious relationship with someone, you leave a bit of yourself behind with them. So the more patient you are, the more of yourself you'll have to give to that special someone.

I just found out a week ago that a lot of my friends are sexually active. And I'm not, like at all.
I don't want to just find a random guy and do sexual things with him, but the way my friends talk about it...they kinda tell me in a condescending way. Like "Oh yes, I did this...and oh there's little Jane over there, still innocent." They aren't being mean or anything and they don't mean to say it like that I don't think, but it's just sort of shocking.
I guess that I always thought that I'd kinda be the first or something. Or that I'd at least get somewhere. I don't really want to be sexually active unless it's with someone really really special that I'm really really committed to. Like we are talking major commitment. My friends who are sexually active have boyfriends that they've been dating for years.
I guess I sort of just feel like a loser because I haven't gone very far. And I know that I shouldn't, but now knowing that my friends have makes me feel like I'm left out of something and too stupid to do any of it. I just thought that it was okay not to be sexually active because that was the normal thing, but now that the majority of my friends are, I just feel weird and prude. But then there's another part of me that now feels like stuff like that is automatically expected in a relationship at our age and I'm not sure if I'd be ready for that if I ever have another boyfriend. I don't want to make a stupid mistake OR feel like I HAVE to make a stupid mistake.
I know that you shouldn't have sex just because everyone else is doing it. I'm just confused and I can't talk to my mom about this because that would betray my friends.
Does that make any sense? (link)
|
There is NOTHING wrong with waiting for that special someone to share your first time with. Even if your friends are doing it with every Tom, Dick and Harry that comes their way, it doesn't mean you have to.
This may sound cheesy, but my mother used to tell me that your virginity is the greatest gift you can give to the man that you love. Men feel a sense of pride when they are with a girl who has never done anything before.
Sex isn't supposed to be just a physical act. It is also meant to be a bonding experience between you and someone you love. Yes, sex feels good. But if it's not with someone you care about, when the sex ends, so does the nice feeling. However, if you're with someone you truly love and care about, that feeling never goes away.
So, now that I've ranted, the best advice I can give you in this situation is to ignore your friends' comments. They are just trying to show off and probably just want to feel more adult. However, if you wait until the right moment, you will be the mature one, not them.

so my best friend is completly sprung over this guy.
and shes i guess you could say obsessed.
and hes the same way about her.
but now she ignores me completly.
and when im talkin to her and he walks up..
i feel like a 3rd wheel.
so i just walk away.
its getting annoying.
any help? (link)
| |
You should really talk to your friend. She is probably so excited about being in a relationship that she doesn't realize that she's hurting your feelings.

an elephants organization and cells.
I'm doing a paper on my favorite living thing, and i can't find this information anywhere.. (link)
| |
I would recommend doing a quick google search and if you don't find what you're looking for, then try asking the librarian at your public library for help. They actually go to school to learn how to help people with their research so they can be of some GREAT assistance.

how can i curl my hair like taylor swift has it in her video " Our Song"?
i want it to be easy, and not take that long.
(link)
|
If you put in some mouse before you blow dry it and then scrunch it with your fingers as it's drying, you should get some nice curls.
Try and remember though that those stars can afford to pay hair stylists thousands of dollars to look like that so you're probably not going to get the exact same results.

I am from India.I would realy want to know what is the best, safe and clean way to clean the vulva and the vagina.i mean how to get rid of the hair? Are hair removing creams good or is razor better?Is there any other way because i m not aware.What should be done everytime when it comes to cleaning of vagina?Please advice. (link)
| |
In all honesty, it's much better for you to leave the hair there. It keep bacteria out of your vagina that can cause some nasty problems. I would recommend just trimming the sides with a razor but leave the hair that surrounds the opening as it is. When you're on your cycle, you might want to trim the length a little bit, but for the most part, it's safer and healthier to leave most of the hair as it is.

I KNOW THIS MESSAGE IS LONG BUT PLEASE HELP ME :(
Hello i am 19 year old girl, i have a loving family and have been in a relationship with my boyfriend for 3 years, he is my first ever boyfriend and my first in everything sex wise and relationship wise. ALOT has happened so i'll just tell you the simple version. The relationship started out fine in the beginning and then after about a year he started to get very argumentative and very angry later on that year he broke up with me and told me he slept with another girl and wore a condom BUT didnt cheat on me, and after a month he wanted to get back together, so i did, 3 months after we got back together i dragged out of him that he didnt in fact wear a condom so he lied to me, i undertook the correct precautions when he told me this and thankfully everything was fine with me and him so stayed with him despite the lie, 6 months later i then found out that he lied again when he said that he slept with the girl when we broke up he actually cheated on me, he acted very sorry and said the arguments would stop and things would change so i forgave him again.
Throughout all of this he has gained a very bad relationship with my mother and relatives, when we first got together my mum treated him extemley well but since the cheating he has been cocky and arrogant to my mother, when he was arguing at me again about a month a go, my mum got involved as she didnt like the way he was talking to me and he told her to 'shut her f***ing mouth.'
he refuses to take me out anywhere as he says he cant be bothered.
It has now been 6 months since these lies adn arguments and i feel now has been the final straw. my grandmother was ill and i told him that i could only see him for 3 hours, i told him this as his house he FLIPPED 'What the f*** you didnt tell me how dare you' i then said im leaving and he blocked the door i shouted and went into the living room, he blocked that door he wouldnt let me out i called my mother and he was in the background SHOUTING and SWEARING and he wouldnt let me out, he then said go on get out theres the door f*** off and DIE i went to leave and he blocked the door again saying it was a joke and he loves me. eventually his parents came home and said they would give me a lift home, he said 'its my f***ing car too im coming as well' he was swearing at me saying your a bitch you treat me like s*** you treat me like a dog no wonder you dont have any friends. now he is acting like nothing has happened saying i love you all the time and saying he wants to take me some place special for my birthday and give me my birthday presents.
i know i should leave him but this is all i know since i was 17 and im so scared to leave him, im going to university but i have no friends and scared of never being loved by anyone else and he'll be the only one who'll ever love me :(
please help (link)

Ok what this guy is doing is abuse. He is just beating down on you with words and insults and you don't deserve that. This guy is your first love and that's tough but you need to let got. From what you have posted, I see no reason for you to stay.

is there a place online where i can vent my problems? i don't need advice per say, but just. a place where you can just write and write and write and have people comment on your situation? (link)
| |
MySecret.tv is great. It's all anonymous and you can get comments from people going through the same things you are.

So, right now I currently hold the position as an event planner in my youth group. I was wondering what events I can do that are unique and not overly used. So far I'm thinking of a party for a cause, and I was thinking of others such as
rockclimbing
ice/roller skating
cosmic bowling
movies
bonfires
but they aren't really what I would consider unique
if it helps were anywhere from 15-18 years of age. Any other ideas? (link)
|
Here are some of the things my youth group has done:
-Lock ins
-Have a summer party in the middle of winter (i.e turn up the heat and have everyone come dressed in summer clothes. It's SO much fun).
-Hire a local band and have sort of a mini concert (inviting youth groups from other churches makes it even better)
-Go to an amusement park
Most of the time teenagers will enjoy themselves as long as there is food and music present lol.

Would it be safe to pierce my own ears? I have 8 holes already and have never had any problems with them, my ears are sensitive to piercings at all. Im just sick of spending so much money. What are the pros and cons, or some tips. (link)
| |
Go to a professional and no, that does not include the folks at Claires. There are people who are trained to pierce your ear in a way that lowers your risk of infection. If at all possible, go to a place that uses needles instead of the gun. While the thought of a needle may sound gruesome, it's a lot safer and much less painful than the gun which can shatter cartilage and lead to keloids (really ugly, painful bumps).

I made a mistake and started smoking just before I turned 14...but I gave up after about 7 months of smoking. Stupid I know, but I gave up :]
Now I'm constantly thinking about it and I tend to miss it.
What are some things or whatever I could do to stop thinking about it.
I'm not going to start again, I don't want to...but I need to stop thinking about it and I don't want to miss it.
15/f
Please no lecturing on how bad it is for you. I know, I made a mistake. Also thinking ''It's bad for you'' doesn't stop me from missing it.
So yeah.
Sorry if this is confusing.
(link)

If you find yourself thinking about it, just remind yourself of how disgusting it really is.
Try and remember how it made you smell and turned your teeth and nails yellow.
If you begin to associate something your mind believes is good with something bad, it will be much easier to give it up for good.

She threw up blood today and I don't know how to help her. I need some advice. (link)
| |
It probably feels like if you tell someone about her problem, you would be betraying her. However, her getting angry at you for letting someone know will be much easier to handle than if something serious happened to her and you knew that you could have somehow prevented it.

I was in a discussion with my best friend about depression. We were listing things that cause people to become depressed and then we got to depressed celebrities. One of the major depressed celebrities today is Britney Spears. Britney Spears has filled so many tabloids up with her depression fits lately.
My best friend suggested that Britney Spears is not really depressed. She said that Britney Spears gained some weight because her career died down and she stopped keeping track of herself, and that Britney Spears has only claimed to be depressed for better publicity. Her reasons for not believing that Britney Spears is really depressed were basically that she has money, fame/popularity, relatively good looks, and a family.
My question is do you really think that Britney Spears, or anyone in her situation, could really be depressed? Maybe I am just missing out on what depression actually is but I think my friend has a point. Britney Spears couldn't ask for a better life--how can she REALLY be depressed? Keep in mind that I am not only referring to Britney Spears--she is just the one who comes to mind in this given situation. (link)

She has bipolar disorder which is different from just having regular depression. I'm not saying one is worse than the other but bipolar disorder is a chemical imbalance that has to be treated with medication. It's not something she can just turn on and off if she wants.

i hate stretch marks. i have them on my waist and on my boobs. there so ugly and the ones on my waist are VERY noticeable! how can i get rid of them? (link)
| |
Unfortunately there's no sure fire way to get rid of stretch marks unless you're willing to get expensive surgery. Eventually they will start to match your skin tone and look much better. Until then you can do what others have said and use Cocoa Butter.

hi im trying to find some good books to read.
ive read a lot of books and i read everything that my friends suggest and thats a lot of books. l0l
anyways i need some books to read that are 7th grade level and higher (im a really good reader, so preferrably higher levels). i like books that have drama, or ficional history like forever amber, stuff about school, boyfriends, backstabbers, sex, drugs, money, sports, basically anything.
please tell me what its about and/or the author.
any advice is greatly appreciated =] (link)
| |
Well if you like drama, I would read The Other Boleyn Girl. You won't be able to put it down. It's about two sisters who compete for the affections of a king. It's FANTASTIC and I know you'll love it.

hey, i got a pimple a couple of days ago and i usually dont get them so i don't know how to get rid of it. can someone please help me. and what is the best stuff to cover them up with? (link)
| |
This might sound weird, but if you put toothpaste on it before you go to bed and leave it on while you sleep, when you wake up in the morning it will look a lot better. I have pretty good skin too so whenever I get one of those rare annoyances, this is the technique I use.
|
I have googled this but I don't really understand the links:
If you are at a party, and you are a minor who is NOT drinking at all, can you still get an MIP even if you have no possession of the alcohol and have not consumed it if others are drinking at the party? (link)
|
I think it really depends on the laws and the cops in your area. Some cops might decide to let you go while others might just find you guilty by association.
If you're worried about it, don't go to the party. There are other ways to have fun which don't put you at risk for getting arrested.
