Q: What are the chances of a condom breaking, or failing?

About 2.3%. Pretty good odds! Both a condom and the use of birth control medication can make the possibility of pregnancy almost 99% impossible. Of course, for protection against STI's, condoms are still always your best bet.

Q: I have no idea why I'm acting this way, and I just need some help to understand why i'm acting this way and how to fix it.
I just always want to be alone. I'll be eating dinner with family and i just can't wait until dinner is over so I can go to my room and be alone. I'll sit in bed and watch tv and go on my laptop. Or some of my friends will ask me to hang out but sometimes I'll say i can't, because i'd rather do things alone like go shopping alone. For prom, I didn't really know the people in my group but they asked me if I wanted to get ready with them (do makeup and hair together) but I said no because i'd rather do it alone.
I guess it makes me happy that i can do things alone, but at the same time it kind of confuses me.. why can't I enjoy being around other people?? It just frustrates me because i think that is the main reason why I don't have many friends. I'm trying to change this but I don't know where to start. Help?

First off, are you feeling sad or depressed? If not, there's nothing wrong with the want to be alone! Some people just prefer the quietness of doing their own thing to big groups of friends and going out. Perhaps you are what they call a homebody.
However, since you are still young, be sure to take the time every once in a while to go out with your friends. It is important to keep your friendships and relationships with family members. Someday, you might not want to be alone so much, so maintain the relationships in your life. Take time to ask your friends how they are doing, as well as your family.
If you are feeling ambitious, perhaps try to meet some new people at school or your job (if you work). Sometimes, it can be refreshing to meet a new person, and step out of your comfort zone a little bit. Hope I helped!

I'm not sure how old you are, but many online occupations require the user to be eighteen or older. Also, many of the jobs available require a lot of work and patience for a little money!
If you are eighteen, try applying for a job a ChaCha. ChaCha is a question-and-answer resource where people log on or text questions to a number to receive a fast, concise answer. My brother's friend has had some good success with this site!
Another idea, if you're feeling creative, is to write for Associated Content. AC is a website that consists of user-generated articles. While the pay is quite small for beginners (maybe $5 an article?), if you wrote several a week, it could be a nice way to bring in some extra money!
These are the two most legitimate online occupations I could think of for teens. Be EXTREMELY cautious of websites offering "Cash for Surveys", along with anything that requires you to give out extensive personal information, such as credit card numbers, bank account information, etc. The key to making money in an online job is persistance! I wish you the best of luck!

Q: i am 13 and everyone i know (including girls younger than me) have bigger breasts than me. is there anyway to help stimulate their growth? big boobs run in my family ( my sister has DD's!) but apparently not me. am i normal?

You are absolutely normal! Everyone is different, and even if that is a trait that runs in your family, it does not necessarily mean you will or will not get big boobs. Only genes can tell...
I'm strongly against ordering any kind of supplement or other kind of pill or exercise machine that says it will help your breasts grow. They could possibly be unsafe because some are not reviewed by the FDA. Your best bet would be to do chest and arm exercises, such as push ups to build up the muscle behind the breast tissue. This will better support and accentuate your chest.
Honestly, I would not worry about this problem at all! Nobody is the same, and as long as you are healthy and seeing a doctor regularly, your body is doing what it is supposed to do. Give it a few years! Hope I helped.

Q: I love haven my eye lashes lifted and looking big, but no matter how many times I curl them and put mascara on they fall right back down. Any ideas? Help!

A trick I have always found to be helpful is to heat your eyelash curler. Use a hair dryer to carefully warm your eyelash curler. Check with the inside of your wrist or your thumb to make sure the eyelash curler isn't so hot that it will burn your eyelids, and curl as usual! This trick makes your eyelashes extra curly, and the curl should last longer.
Another thing to make sure is that your mascara formula is either volumizing or curling, but not lengthening. I have found that most lengthening mascaras tend to make your eyelashes stick straight out, rather than curl dramatically.
