I'm female, 20 years old. My walk to class is about 5 to 10 minutes. On my way to class my face always gets really sweaty and so its just embarrassing when i get to class. I dont know what to do..its not like the walk is hard, i'm very in shape and im on my schools varisty volleyball team. it seems like no matter what, hot or cold my face always sweats and i just look gross when i get to class...what do i do? i dont have the option of driving. (link)
Bring a hand towel with you, and discretely dry off your face before you walk into your class.


how to increase running stamina (link)
Stamina is increased by sprinting, then going slow, then sprinting again. Also... Lift weights with your legs. ( endurance is increased by long distance running.)


Ok so i work at a resturant the pays its employees under the tabel. we do have some shifts where we clock in but the majority i get in cash. I was told that my boss is commiting tax fruad by doing this is it true? (link)
yes that is illegal because it means that you are not paying taxes.


My boyfriend and i had sex and we used a condom. afterward, he took off the condom, put on hand sanitzer, used a hand sanitizer wipe, and fingered me like five minutes later. i'm freaking out about the possibility of pregnancy because i feel like he could have touched sperm when he took off the condom, and apparently hand sanitizer doesn't kill sperm. but, i also thought that if his hands were completely dry before he fingered me, which they were, it would be okay because sperm is killed when it dries. also, he used a hand sanitizer wipe, so that could have at least wiped the sperm off of his hands. so, am i okay, or should i go buy the morning after pill?... (link)
You probably won't be pregnant,because the window that you can become fertile is pretty small, and the chances are slim.


where would i get some? i've had insomnia for a long time and i don't like taking sleeping pills because that builds up an tolerance. (link)
Exercise during the day, early. Do not watch tv or get on the computer an hour before bed. Take a warm bath, buy a white noise machine, sip herbal tea before bed. Try taking a benadryl.

19/f so i like getting smoothies from smoothie king, and there's this guy that works there and i thought he was really cute.i was smiling at him when he was making my smoothie, and i started talking to him and flirting , and i was batting my eyelashes, and i asked his name what his shirt said because it said i love ccs, and said that's where he's from, and i was like which is?? and he told me and then i asked him his name, and he said Carlos, and he was like why are you asking me what my name is? i said wow im sorry i asked. and it was really cute. the next day at school he saw me and i was like you go here and he started laughing at me and was like yes i go here otherwise i wouldn't be standing here, and his friend was with him and they started making fun of me and carlos was like she's so stupid. i felt dumb but i was mad because he was soo rude to me. what's his problem? i mean who does he thinks he is? ughh u can't stand him. soo rude. (link)
what an ass hole... For a college age guy,they would not play a game like that if they were interested.If you see I'm again, IGNORE!!!


My boyfriend won't change his Facebook status. Mine says in a relationship with so and so, but his says single. We've been dating exclusively for TWO YEARS now. What do I say to him to make him understand that this hurts me because it stirs up a lot of drama when you click on his name from my profile and on his it's glaring at me: SINGLE. Do you think maybe I should wait longer, or am I right to ask him after two years to update it... (link)
oh hell yes he better change it. In college, if it's not Facebook official, it isn't quite real. Or don't ask him... Just send him a relationship request, If he denies it, your problems with each other are deeper than it seems.

my friend and i have been friends sence we were in the third or 4th grade, maybe even younger. wll about a month ago he broke up with his gf and 3 weeks ago i broke up with my bf. we grew up in the same church but lately i haven't been going on sundays. so sunday before last he called me and fussed at me for not being there in a month. we stayed on the phone all day long catching up on the things we've missed. (FYI: i've like had a crush on him fo like forever) well he told me about this football party his family has every time alabama (roll tide) plays and invited me and when this past saturday came i went. some how we kind of like wondered away from every1 else and we started talking, next thing i know we were having sex. well this past sunday we both felt weird at church, HE EVEN TOLD ME IT WAS WEIRD SITTING NEXT TO ME, but i felt the same way to. see after we had sex i guess we were going together, because he said so. (which i'm ok with :) ) problem is we talk daily but i don't feel like we're in a relationship, and i don't wanna tell him that because it may ruin our relationship and our friendship (which i realy like). is it me? is it him? i don't know whats wrong with me? i've liked him for like 4ever and i still do but i feel so weird on the inside when i see him. what do i do???? (link)
You should confront hum! Lack of communication will cause this to end in disaster. just ask him what's in his mind and what you are to him, if he wants to be in a relationship right now and why the whole sex thing happened. get on the same level. if he has not asked you to be his girlfriend, you are not dating,


ok, so for sometime now my bf has told me he really wants to eat me out. But i think he just wants to because i tell him i want to give him a bj. But he keeps telling me he really wants to. Im just concerned cause well...girls get wet and if a guy does oral thats gonna be pretty much in is mouth. Not to mention girls arent balled, like of course ill shave but...its not going to be perfect. Girls also give off a smell. Id think that eatin a girl out would be 100 times worse then giving head cause of all this. So my question really is, do guys enjoy, get turned on eating a girl out? I really want guys opinions cause this is directed to them, but ill take any advice i can get. I just really want to know if there is anything i should do b4, obvisously shower, but is there anything else i can to? Thank you soo much for your time! (link)
usually a guy eats a girl out so that she I'll be able to orgasm, if it doesn't work by hand. he may also have a desire or something, but do not worry about your vagina... If it is clean that is all you can do really.But if you are satisfied with fingering then I would tell him that you don't really need him to do that. There tongue is supposed to be able to make it work better.



I left a realationship that was hard on me for a new one. i do nonthing but fight with my new bf & find myself wanting to run back to old one. i feel so confused . i wonder if maybe just being single is better? (link)
being single would definitely be better! Learn to love yourself, become more spiritual, and love others, and someone truly worthwhile will eventually come along. Do not settle! you are worth more,


I'm 17 years old and am currently a senior in high school. So, there's this guy that I've been talking to a lot lately but have known him for a long time now. We go to church together and have developed a pretty good friendship, but I want us to be more than friends so badly. The only thing keeping us apart is the age difference. He's 22 years old. But, I can't seem to get him off my mind no matter what I do. I'm pretty sure that the wanting a relationship feeling is mutual but I'm not legally able to be with him. He's told me that we'll have to wait until I'm 18 to get into anything serious, but I'm impatient and feel strongly enough about him to look past the age difference. I would like some advice on what I should do...wait or get the guy I've been wanting for a year now?? (link)
ok...I believe the law is that you cannot have sex with someone who is under 18 if you are 25 ( age of consent ) but you can be in a relationship, without sex. And the age of consent may be above 22, which would mean it is legal for him to be wih a 17 year old. look up the law for your state, and question him on how serious he is. if he still won't go for it, he is using age as an excuse and just is not that into you.

saturday my bf and i made plans to go out but my phone was out of minutes and i was stuck at home painting the walls. when i finaly turned my phome back on i called him, talked, and we rearanged plans. our new plan was for me to go home with him and his family, relax and eat there then go to the movies, we agreed i asked my mom and he did the same.
my mom said i was ok with her if i could clean up the livingroom, den and kitchen (with us painting the house those 3 rooms were messy) so i stayed up all night cleaning up. when i finally tried to go to sleep my alarm went off for me to go to church. during service i fell asleep (which is not like me) aand he woke me up, but i was only sleep for like 1min.
after church i went home with him and his family when we got to his house his mom started cooking and i started to fall asleep, untill he asked me to come out side and have some "us" time so i did after talking and picking up his aunt we went in his room to iron our clothes (and nothing else, the door was open) after i ironed my clothes and he did the same. i layed on the bed and started to fall asleep again untill he woke me up asking "are you ready to go?" my reply "when ever you are." so we got dressed and left.
we went out to eat and i paid (because every other week i pay and every other week he pays, it works for us) and instead of going to the movies we went to the store to waist time. when we were at his house, and i was going to sleep he told me what was on his mind. he wanted to "go some where with no interruptions just the 2 of us and have sex"... my reply was "i'm tired." well after we left the store we didn't know where else to go so he said "lets go somewhere quiet and just talk" so i said "ok"
we went down this dark road and finaly he pulled over in the middle of no-where. so we sat ther eno one said anything it was just an oquward... so i asked "whats on your mind?" and he said "its just me, you, and the earth. your voice and mines, no interruptions. i don't see why we're not having sex." i told him " my mind set is different form yours right now." so after an arguement and some quietness, i said "hey if you want, you can take me home." after 30min he took me home. so yesterday i texed him "hi" but he never texed back (i guess he was still mad) so now its another day and i haven't texed him and he hasn't texed me. i'm starting to say its over but b4 i do that, i wanna know, am i wrong? is he wrong? was i leading him on or something? i don't get it..
if i did something wrong, let me know i acept my faults. if he's wrong i believe in forgiving. i just need to know before i do something i'll regret. can u help me? please. (sorry for the misspelled words, i was rushing) (link)
hey sweetie, you are not wrong at all. So many guys do this! No matter how sweet they act, or how much they say they like you for you, lots of guys out there really only care about sex. and if you aren't going to have sex with him...he does not want to be with you. he is an ass hole, and completely un worthy of you. Good for you for sticking up for yourself. Find someone who would wait as long as you needed, they are the one that really matters.


i dont want to live any more. everybody thinks im so happy. they think i have a great life. even my friends dont know who i really am inside. im so miserable. i feel empty. i dont want to live any more. i went to school today and realized i just dont belong here at all. this is what i want to do. i dont want to live any longer. i dont want to feel this void any more. nobody knows how it is. everybody thinks i'm so funny and happy and inside i feel like i'm dying. i'm such a fake. it's like i'm stuck in this dark place and i can't get out and there's no other way to end this suffering of mine.

how can i end my life without causing a lot of pain or mess? i dont want to suffer any more. what can i do that is effective? this is going to be a surprise to so many so i'd prefer it to not be so messy so nobody has to like clean up a mess. nobody understands this feeling. im so alone (link)
Don't do it. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, especially if you are at school. Literally.... Your brain is still developing, and this can cause sadness. seratonin helps with this. seratonin is a chemical in the brain and it sounds like yours is not quite balanced enough. I tried to commit suicide before and failed, and now I have moved on and am on medication and it changed my life. Go to your school psychologist and it is confidential, and talk to someone first or at least try a SSRI ( happy pill) for a month before you kill yourself. I promise it makes an amazing difference. Depression and anxiety are weird things, sometimes people do not seem depressed on the outside at all, but the right medication could really really make them feel better. I am only 20 years old and I promise you it is worth a try, because it is really really hard to be happy in college. I understand, I do.


my boyfriend and I are at the point where we just fight all the time. I dont know why. I say he pushes me into theses fights, he says im too confrontational etc. etc. blah blah. Its just stupid and we keep creating more problems. It isnt fun anymore. I dont know what to do. Does it sound like maybe we should just move on? Any advice please. (link)
you don't want to marry someone who you argue with constantly, and the whole point of dating is to find the " one", right? So move on, because life is too short to settle!!


Okay, so I have this boyfriend who is really nice and I just think he's so loveable and soft. I love talking to him and just engaging in conversation with him. But he has this friend who can be just a total jerk I swear. One day, he told my boyfriend that I was mean to him and he gives me the cold shoulder because I don't look like a nerd just like him and his D&D buddies. Well when my boyfriend turns around to take a break from playing his game to probably have a small chat with me. The stupid boy grabs my boyfriend and turns him around.

What the hell is his problem and should I let the idiot boy bother me? (link)
How old are you? his friend is a jerk I agree, but your boyfriend is staying friends with him. Ultimatum? if you are older I would tell your boyfriend to choose, or to talk to his friend about why he likes you and that it is serious and he needs to stop. Also... You should confront your boyfriends friend and ask why he is so rude to you, and what you could do to solve the problem. if you are you ger like highschook and confronting does not work, confront your boyfriend, and if he wont do anything about it then break up with him.


Hello a few days ago i developed this awful pain in my right arm. It's almost like i pulled a forearm muscle. I cant extend it because its like a burst of pain to my arm. It's very painful. I was looking online and all of my symptoms lead to repetitive strain injury (RSI) I feel like its getting worse each day. It's affecting my sleep, its constant aching and pain. I've taken ibuprofen and that doesnt help. Today i attempted to write something with that hand and i like couldnt grip the pencil right. It's like i lost muscle in my fingers. Has anybody ever had this before, do u know when it will go away? I dont even remember doing anything to cause this, its like i woke up one morning and it was really sore. I was also looking online and they said theres no treatment for it. So i going to the doctors is probably out of the question, plus i dont have insurance so please dont suggest that. Is there anything i can do to make the pain go away? Thanks in advance!

You should ice it.. Heat will make it worse. ice it a lot, elevate it. ( above your heart) keep taking ibuprofen. Also try some icy got, it has aspirin in the gel. Try nit to use it so much for a while. You should also compress it... Ace bandage wrap, cloth or whatever to squeeze it a little.


I am on the total outskirts of a friend group in college. THe reason i started even joining this group was because of the sorority i joined. Its not that i'm concerned they don't like me (i know they do) and like if i asked them what they were doing, or where they were pregaming i know they would be like "oh here....comeee" and like totally mean it. but they don't texttt me first to be like we are pregaming here or we are going out to dinner here etc. etc. Also they have a bbm group that i'm not in.

How do I handle this situation? (link)
It sounds like these people are not really your friends, they just feel like they have to invite you when you ASK because you are in their sorority. making friends in college can be a very difficult thing to do, but you are not alone. However, befriending These girls isn't going to make you happy. trust me, this will eventually become clear. do you want to go through college with this group of people who isn't even nice enough to let one more person really in? No.., you don't. And if you keep trying, this is what is going to happen. Don't be afraid to talk to people in other groups and in your classes. Make friends on your own, outside of your sorority, eventually, through sorority binding things you may come. To make some true friends I the group or your sorority, but until then, do not stress about it! Just try to make some friends who Will really care about you in the meantime.
