After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and
chaining a soul, And you learn that
love doesnt mean leaning and company
doesnt mean security, And you begin to
learn that kisses arent contracts and
presents arent promises, And you
begin to accept your defeats with your
head up and your eyes open, with the
grace of an adult, not the grief of a
child And you learn to build all your
roads on today because tomorrows ground
is too uncertain for plans. After a while
you learn that even sunshine burns
if you get too much.
So plant your garden and decorate your
own soul, instead of waiting for someone
to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really are strong,
And you really do have worth.

If you get married AFTER you have children, should you go on a honeymoon? My boyfriend and I are expecting now and are not married. He wants to get married after the baby is born. I think that sounds alright, but then we won't be able to have a proper honeymoon, right? We can't just leave the baby somewhere and if we take the baby with us then it won't be us "getting away" to be together. What do you think?
You should definitely have a honeymoon. It's not just for newly weds without kids. What's a proper honeymoon anyway. It's for every lovers who wants and needs to take time away to be able to rekindle things and enjoy each others company. It would be a good chance for both of you to show how much you care and love one another. It's a perfect way to have and make an unforgettable memory/experience of your affectionate closeness.
Leave your bundle of joy with someone you can truly trust in order for you to have a worry-free honeymoon.
I wish you good luck!
ok. so i've been with my girlfriend for a very long time now and everything has been to good to be true up until recently. about 2 months ago she cheated on me while she was drunk and i was out of town. i caught her the next day when i saw the hickey on her neck. now im constantly thinking about that and i love her to much to end it. (blah blah blah, theres plenty of other fish in the sea, dont even tell me that im tired of hearing it". but today i've also come to realize that he may have given her an std which i too now have i think.... and still i love her to much to break up with her. so i just want to know. does anyone else think im being a dumbass about it all? you can be honest. i would love to hear it.. it would actually make me feel better to know that we love each other to much and even though she genuinely regrets it and is sorry for ever being stupid enough to risk our relationship, im still being stupid with my decision about to stay with her.
You don't call someone stupid simply because they know how to love. You're being quite generous I might add. it's admirable really. Some guys just let the girl bite off the dust when they feel their ego is stomped.
But my concern is, have you truly forgiven her? It must have been hard to accept that your girl can cheat on you either deliberately or unintentionally. My point is that in order for both of you to have a smooth-running relationship, you should have completely forgiven her. You shouldn't constantly bring the subject of her infidelity and throw it on her face everytime you will have a bout of argument. It just wouldn't be healthy at all.
It's good that you talked it over with her and made things clear that there should not be a repeat of what happened.
I wish you you the best and good luck!
Ok so I'm 19 years old. I never really acted my age since when I was little i failed 2 grades but even like that i was always "childish". I don't look my age either. Most people think im only 16 and freak out when i say I'm 19. Mys sister is 14 and shes my best friend. we do mostly everything together. Shes gonna have her "quinceanera" which is when a girl turns 15 party. So she has her "court of honor" with all her friends. I never met X before but i did hear about him. And my sister said he liked me because he would see me when i would pick her up from school. there has only been two practices and he has went to both. the first time i saw him i thought he was around 17. but hes 15. We started talking during the practice. He got the dance really fast so had to dace with most of the girls so they would understand it too. he said a little comment about dancing with me. (one girl wasn't there so i had to fill her place. I'm not in it) But i told him that i wasn't in it. Some how he ended up dancing with me and i was like. Why are you with me you should be with another girl. and he was like oh yeah. he asked me why i wasn't in it and i told him because i didn't want to and of my age. he said he thought i was 16. and i said nope I'm 19. Last practice was Sunday again he was flirting with me i try to stay away from him. but some how i always end up near him. We started talking about his cousins 15. and end up being really far away from the rest of the group. One girl saw us talking and said that we looked cute. i told her well I'm 19 and hes 15. and she laughed and said that she wouldn't tell. and he put his had around me and say thank you. When i drove everyone home i told them that they had to be quite cause i wasn't used to driving in car with a lot of people and who ever was the quietest got to ride shotgun well everyone was laughing because he was the quietest. he ended up being the last one to drop off. UGH! i kinda secretly am starting to like him more than what i think I'm aloud to. I don't think its right. Not about sex. because thats not even in my mind. I have always wanted to wait till I'm married. So what should I do should i follow along or just try and stay away from him?
hmmm...the conflict here would be the fact that he's still a minor..he can tend to be immature at times plus the fact that girls mind matures faster than guys.
other than that, I don't see why there should be an age factor with any relationship. i mean, i know a lot of people whose age difference is way bigger than yours but still they made their relationship work...myself included.
see, i'm also older than my bf though we're both already in our twenties. we're already in our second year and counting. we both don't mind the age gap. we both don't care what other people say. it's all about working together to make our relationship successful..it could be a bit rocky at times but then again what relationship isn't?
i say go for it. give it a chance. with any endeavors, you'll never know the result unless you give it a shot, right?
good luck and wish you all the best!
so last night my bf for over 2 and a half years dumped me because he says he doesnt know what he wants and that hes not happy. and that he wants his old life back before he met me. He also told me him and his ex are good friends now and that he was hiding it from me. I've been crying ever since and have this feeling in my stomach that wont go away. I guess its what a broken heart feels like. He broke up with me on the phone but told me he wanted to wait until this weekend but i told him no. I really need some advice and help to how i can get over him faster and be happy again. Oh and if this feeling is a broken heart.
Been there, heard that, felt your pain..
Regretfully, it is the unmistakable aggravation of a crushed heart. I have come across an article on the net. Please read on and I hope it helps:
A friend of a friend has called her ex-boyfriend six times since he broke up with her. I told my friend to bestow my breaking up advice on her. Whether you want someone back or not, if you follow the rules below, you will maintain your dignity, maybe win the person back, or eventually get over them:
1. Ride Off Into The Sunset
In college I took a class called "American Western Movies". Give me a break, ok? It was summer session. But this class did teach me something. I learned I wanted to be a cowboy. They are so cool, collected, never play their hand, never look rattled, and they are always confident.
One thing they all did was ride off as the sun set on the horizon after their business was done.
Riding off into the sunset keeps our dignity. When a guy breaks up with me, I will say:
"OK, it was great getting to know you over the past (insert length of time).You take care."
My business is done.
Then, I will figuratively ride off into the sunset. I won't tell him how much I miss him. I won't tell him he made a mistake. I won't call, email or text. I won't mention him to mutual friends. I'll be gone from his life.
Suddenly, it will dawn on the guy that he is not getting his money's worth for this breakup. It is true: people who do the breaking up have an air of power to them. They like being the decision maker, and having the control. But after I walk away like it's no problem, he'll start to think:
"Wow, why isn't she shaken up over this? Did she even care that I broke up with her?"
Or even better, the ever-popular and coveted:
"Did I do the right thing breaking up with her?"
That's when you know you're in business.
You know how everyone says that your gut instinct is usually right? Well... I know this is random, but is your gut instinct the best thing to follow even if the decision that you have to make is purely based on chance? For instance - If someone had to make the choice to move to a brand new place and their gut instinct told them not to, even though there is a 50% chance that it will go really well, should they take it? Could they just be confusing that instinct with anxiousness/nervousness? Sorry if that is confusing - trust me, I have a good reason for asking it : )
You should know that you are the ultimate authority in your life to make the appropriate choices and decisions. Almost always, you can know by your instincts or inner thought if something is right for you to do. You will also have your instinct telling the most appropriate ways to follow to achieve success. The possibility of your instincts being wrong is very less. So you can rely on your instincts for your improvement.
So do guys expect a shaved vagina or is it normal to have your hairs still intact?
Should it just be shaved a little so that it's not a giant bush or should it be more shaved than that?
Do they care about the hair down there?
I believe it depends on the guy. But as for myself, I shave it completely off because my boyfriend likes it that way. He said, for him, it's much cleaner that way and a good hygiene as well.
so theres this guy that ive fallen so badly for. we had a thing for a little and he just swept me off my feet then. now its all crumbling down on me. hes so immature and gets mad at me all the time and ignores me all the time and i dont understand because im so nice to him all the time and i try so hard to be perfect. i know im never going to be good enough for him so im just trying to think of ways to get over him. like theres this guy whose so nice and perfect such a gentlemen but im still stuck on the imature guy that treats me like shit. i need to get over this one guy so i can hav a normal life not one constantly thinking what hes doing where hes at if hes thinking of me who the new girl in his life is. i got it bad for the kid, and it sucks we cant even be friends because for some reason he hates me, couldnt tell you what i did. oh well, should i just ignore him for as long as it takes me to get over him then start talking to him months later and see if he misses me? or should i just let him go forever? :/ .. help?
I experienced the exact same thing about three years ago. There's this cute guy who simply (as you put it) swept me off my feet. I fell for him so bad that I did everything he asked me to. I think I have been the best girlfriend he had in terms of good behaviour. I was so afraid to lose that guy that I did everything I could to keep him with me. But for what? Later on he treated me like I'm some kind of plaything that he can ignore at times and gets back to me whenever he feels like he wants to amuse himself.
I will not get much into details but the point is guys like them are not worth crying over with. We deserve more. YOU deserve much more. Before I thought that my world will collapse when that guy and me broke up. I can't eat, I can't sleep, I cannot concentrate on anything, all that was in my mind was getting him back. Take it from me, don't plan on winning him back. He's not worth it. Why do you think he treated you like shit? Why he hates you for no apparent reason? Because he doesn't care one way or another. Do you really want him back into your life only to risk the chance of getting hurt again for the same reason that are hurting you now?
I believe the right person will come for you, like the same thing that happened to me. It may not be at this precise moment, may not be at the right package that you wanted, may appear at the least time you expect it, but at most he's the right person that is meant only for you.
hey im 15.f
i have 2 questions to ask in this.
so heres the story (and oh yea who ever answers ill rate high because i really need help)
my boyfriend and i have been going out for about almost 2 weeks and those 2 weeks he fingered me. i gave me head and we had sex. alot of sex. my question is can i be any chance pragnet since we didnt use a condom the very first time and we were in he shower and he felt like he was gonna cum so he pulled out and waited a little and then we went agian. but he never came. that same day we used condoms but we had sex twice after the shower incident. then i came over agian yesterday and we had sex twice again but with a condom he came but we had a condom and everything was fine. but im just worried that what if i am pragnet and if there is a chance i can be.. because since the first time in the shower my mood changed and i got a small pain like all the way in mmy lower stomach by my vigina. im really scared and i dont know what to do im going to wait ffor my period to come but i dont know by then it might be to late.
another question is i regret having sex with him so much he says he likes me a lot but i feel like our relationship is moving wayyyyyyyy 2 fast and it old him that he said everything is fine and that he wont leave me because we had a thing in the past where i was dating my other boyfriend and he tried to convince me to break up with him so he must like me but idont what to do bout the sex ...and the moving fast
any help ill rate high thank u so much =]
Yes my dear you can be pregnant especially since the first time that you did it you did not use any contraceptives (condom, pills, etc.). I don't know about you but I despise waiting, not knowing what is to come next. If I am on your predicament I will not wait for my period to come, straight away I will go to a clinic to have myself checked if I am pregnant or not. Or you could just simply purchase a pregnancy test. In that way you would be able to know right away if your pregnant and plan ahead on what you should do.
An unsolicited advice, next time you will have sex you should probably consider taking necessary precautions to avoid getting pregnant. You're too young to be starting a family.
Talk to your boyfriend and tell him that you feel that you are moving too fast. An open communication is still one of the best ways to keep and have a harmonious relationship.
Best of luck =)
Heyy im not really looking for advice as such but i came accross your column and i was wondering how you got your profile this way? did you use s html code?get back to me if you can! thanks! =]
Hi there!
Basically I just followed the steps on how to style the column settings, browsed the internet for some interesting background and got the html code.
What do you think is the most important? Compatibility? Understanding? Love? Destiny? Something else?
Everyone has their own views and concepts on what should be considered to make a marriage/relationship work. As for myself, RESPECT is at the topmost because when you and your partner regard each other with respect, you would be able to understand each other easily and can reach a compromise on anything whenever you would have a misunderstanding. ACCEPTANCE, LOVE and FRIENDSHIP are also essential elements on making a marriage work. Even if a marriage is made in heaven, we are responsible to maintain it and that's not an easy task. A couple ought to love each other as their own bodies. Because of the unity which exists in a marriage, whatever one does directly benefits the partner also helps the other.
To make a marriage work, couples should:
- Have the same goals;
- Be good friends, a sense of being very connected to each other;
- Do the same things and enjoy being together;
- Not be dependent on each other and know how to give each other space;
- Not hold resentments, get things off your chests and talk about it.
'Ope these can be of help. =_)

I havent had my period since I started it on Nov. 30.
Therfore I have missed my December period and possibly my January period (I am never regular.. usually late). There is basically no way I could be pregnant. I've never had sex. and I even took 2 pregnancy tests when I was 3 weeks late last month. Both were negative.
I have been SUPER stressed the past few months about deciding where to go to college and I'm not sure if that can cause missing 2 months. I've also been stressed about thinking of pregnancy. I can't think of anything else I have done differently.
I just want to know what's happening with my body. It doesn't feel like I'm going to even start pmsing soon. What should I do? Is it bad to just wait?
I am only going to the doctor if I absolutely need to because then I have to tell my mom..
Hello there. You remind me of my friend way back in college. Her menstrual period is so irregular she only has it every two (2) months, sometimes more irregular than that. I believe what she did was she consulted a gynecologist and she got to know that she has an hormonal imbalance. Her doctor prescribed her some medicine to regularize her period.
I say mention it to your mom and consult a doctor. Whatever maybe the reason behind the irregularity of your period must be dealt with a professional because its a health issue.
Also, you can check this site for added info's: http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/Menstrual_Irregularities.cfm
I was wondering about something really important to me. I have this boy that has been stalking me for a while and wants to do it(have sex) with me. I really don't like him like that and don't really know him but he still stalks me and looks at me in the wrong places. Can you give me some advice?
You should inform your parents about it, let them know what's happening. Afterwards it's better to lodge a complain to the police so that anything bad that might happen to you (which I hope nothing) they would have a primary suspect. It could be really dangerous if someone is stalking you the way that this guy does. I mean, just take his reason for doing this, its about sex, its nothing you can just easily brush off.
Sisterly advise: take care of yourself whenever you're going out. It won't hurt if you know a thing or two about defending yourself, not just with this particular person but considering how dangerous the world we live in, I say go and get yourself a self-defense lesson.
Stay safe!

I've recently begun to think about my future, and I figure that I'm becoming about the age when I can get a job. So, I've decided I'm going to start making a rough draft of what I want my future to look like and how much it will cost so I can know what my general goal is. I've already done a bit of research, but I'd rather have other opinions and facts to compare what I'm thinking too. So, here it goes:
-I am going to begin studying for my drivers permit as soon as I turn 15 so I'll only have to wait 1 more year to get my license. This being said, I'm going to start my saving for a car. What is the average insurance cost for a 16 year old girl? Also, any recommendations on the type of car to get? I don't care about fancy cars, as long as it gets me from point A to point B and has good mileage.
-I already know I want to go to college. My previous semester (freshman year) GPA was 3.507 and I'm working on raising it in order to get a good scholarship. I also play volleyball and I'm hoping that will help me get into college on a scholarship as well. I was thinking as a career choice that I could be an author, graphic designer, architect, or illustrator, but I have yet to narrow down that list. So, I probably need to go to an arts school, but I'd still like to have a good degree and whatnot. Any college or scholarship reccomendations?
-Last, for now, I would like to have a rhinoplasty surgery (Nose job) when I get older. This may seem kind of silly, but it really means a lot to me and no one is going to change my mind. So, does anyone know (for a FACT) of any good surgeons in a nice, clean facility with an experienced staff? I'm looking for cheap, but I want it to be a good job, so if it must be expensive, I'll pay. The thing about this goal is I don't know at what time I should get it. I mean, I know I'll probably get it sometime before I'm out of college, but I'm not sure when would be the best timing.
Those are 3 of my top goals for now, though I'm sure I'll probably add more some time later. Please do not critisize my desicions, I have already made up my mind. I would love ANY advice you could possibly give me on ANYTHING that might help and I will rate. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!!!!
WOW.
When I was your age I don't think I can remember the time when I was even that organized with my clothes, let alone laying out a plan for the future.
Well, I'm not here to judge. In fact, it's such a refreshing knowledge that there are kids out there who are passionate about their future. Kudos to you for being one of a kind.
With reference to your questions, unfortunately I cannot impart any specific answers because I live in a different part of the globe and what we do here with the license and college scholarships and everything is kinda different there. I suggest for you to scout through the net where endless possibilities and various choices can be found. You can ask close friends, and better yet sit down and talk with your parents about your plans. They would be the best people to help and guide you.
I think I'll just cheer you on and wish you luck on all your pursuits in life. Wish you all the best!
Well there's is this kid David that Ive been crazy for ,for about 3 ish years.We have been reallly good friends and he has admitted to liking me on and off.We've been having sex for about that long as well and I just had a feeling deep deep down he had alot of feelings for me ,he just didn't show them or wasnt ready to show them or just didn't wanna ruin things..so i continued having sex with him even though we weren't going out .Then I asked him if he likes me and what not and he said he does deep down and he knows one day we will date but hes just not ready for a girlfriend so I believed that.Shortly after ,he started talking to this girl who doesn't even live in our town and whatnot.He started talking to me less and less and acted like he cared less and less each day.He's now going out with her and barely talks to me and when he does,its usually something mean.I tried talking to him about it and he said "that he didnt wanna spend his life with just one girl the rest of his life "etc etc. and from then on ,I just kinda pretend like I dont care but it's really killing me inside.I wanna know if he atleast thinks about me or what is going on.I would stop liking him but its hard and we've had a thing for 3 years so I don't want to lose it.Any advice would help thanks!
What do you like about this David? Sex? I don't mean to be candid but I think you need a little bit of shaking up. What you had with this guy was nothing more than an "intercourse between animate beings", to put it decently. I mean, you're not a couple, there's no special bond shared (except in the confinement of a four-walled space), and the minute he met someone he started acting like a total jerk and treating you like a tramp.
YOU SHOULD FORGET HIM.
I have read this article about breaking-up. Though you were not officially boyfriend&girlfriend to have a formal break-up, still I hope this helps. Read on:
A friend of a friend has called her ex-boyfriend six times since he broke up with her. I told my friend to bestow my breaking up advice on her. Whether you want someone back or not, if you follow the rules below, you will maintain your dignity, maybe win the person back, or eventually get over them:
1. Ride Off Into The Sunset
In college I took a class called "American Western Movies". Give me a break, ok? It was summer session. But this class did teach me something. I learned I wanted to be a cowboy. They are so cool, collected, never play their hand, never look rattled, and they are always confident.

Riding off into the sunset keeps our dignity. When a guy breaks up with me, I will say:
"OK, it was great getting to know you over the past (insert length of time).You take care."
My business is done.
Then, I will figuratively ride off into the sunset. I won't tell him how much I miss him. I won't tell him he made a mistake. I won't call, email or text. I won't mention him to mutual friends. I'll be gone from his life.
Suddenly, it will dawn on the guy that he is not getting his money's worth for this breakup. It is true: people who do the breaking up have an air of power to them. They like being the decision maker, and having the control. But after I walk away like it's no problem, he'll start to think:
"Wow, why isn't she shaken up over this? Did she even care that I broke up with her?"
Or even better, the ever-popular and coveted:
"Did I do the right thing breaking up with her?"
That's when you know you're in business.
2. Apply the Wizard of Oz Effect
Of course, most likely, we are in total pain and anguish after a break up. But, we can't let that show. Remember:
"Pay no mind to that man behind the curtain?"
We can, behind the curtain, cry, complain, yell, be angry, and hurt. But, we must craft the appearance on the outside of being fine with everything. We need to look happy on the outside to the other person 100% of the time we see them post-breakup.
This also gives the illusion that you might be seeing someone else, or that you've got other things going on. Of course you're miserable and there's NOTHING going on in your life, but they don't have to know it!
3. Enact the Verb in "Breaking Up"
Get rid of all evidence of them -- put it all in a closet, under your bed, or anywhere. I'm a sucker for a strand of hair or his shampoo smell left on a pillow after a guy is over. After the breakup, this must go: wash the sheets! Remember, in breaking up, to think of it like a guillotine: make it fast.
On a guillotine, you'd rather have a sharp blade slice your head right off than a blunt blade repeatedly cut and cut until your head finally fell off.
If it's a break up they want, make it clean for them. It will look good, and it will be easier on you. Flush them right out of your life immediately, and completely.
4. Don't Look Back
It's hard to accomplish this. We know not to look back, just like we know not to look down when someone says don't look down...but we still look down. But, make it easy on yourself: looking back and saying stuff like:
"Gosh, just two weeks ago,we were out to dinner and she stayed over here and we were so close..."
...will just make it more painful. You can't look back until it's time to look back when you're truly over it.
5. Remember You'll Get Over It
The best thing about breaking up is those following mornings you wake up after you've truly gotten over someone. You're renewed, alive, and ready to see what the world has to offer. Keep pushing through for this feeling, remember all those people you thought you'd never get over (you know you ended up getting over them), and as Jim Morrison once crooned: "break on through to the other side!"
Well I don't know about you, but after going through all that, I'm inspired to get dumped!
I like this boy and i liked him for a long time so far. And he knows i like him and stuff but thats not the problem. The problem is that now all these other girls are starting to like him and flirting with him, im not saying that they cant becasue we arent going out or anything. BUt you see i was the only girl that liked him that time and i had a good chance of talking to him but i couldnt because i was to afraid, NOw al these other chicks are getting at him and Im afraid that they might get to him before i do and i want to do something about it but im to shyy to. What can i do??
Survival of the fittest aptly illustrates your circumstance. It's like a pack of hyenas ready to pounce on its sole prey.
Seriously, not because you "saw" him first will guarantee you an exclusive right with this guy. You have to "fight" and win your man fair and square.
I believe the first step you have to do is to shed-off your coyness. Sulking in one corner won't help you one bit on your quest. Try to build up your self-confidence. You have got to show this guy what makes you unique and the perfect girlfriend among these other gurls. Show him how fun you can be with, how smart, how talented. But not to the extent of creating another persona just to make him like you. I mean, he should fancy you on who you truly are. The key is stepping forward and letting him know that such an amazing person existed in his world. And that is YOU.
Okay, my bff is trying to hook me up with her cousin who supposedly (fell in love with me at first sight at a football game.) I told her i wasn't interested but she is very persistent. she even gave him my phone# (but i don't really know the guy and we even don't go to the same school.) Anyways, he's been texting me every single day for the past week, but then he just stopped (and i was actually opening up and was going to give it a chance.) What does it mean when he stopped texting me? So can someone tell me what this means and what i should probably do from here? please!
There could be plenty of reasons why the cousin of your BFF suddenly stopped sending you SMS. It could be he had a lot of school work to catch up with, some problems at home, or maybe he finally sensed that you're not that much into him and decided to move on.
The thing is we're not sure. But you have to make up your mind whether to give this guy a chance or not. It's not right to keep him hanging and give him false hope. It's not fair. Now, once you have decided to really open up and give it a chance as what you have mentioned, I say go and call him to say hi. See what he's been up to. However, if you feel deep down that this guy doesn't have that much of an impact to you, better to let things as it is. Let time to unfold in its due course.

I have an eating disorder and this year i've been trying new foods everyday, but only in moderation and i'm really anxious around food.
I'm trying to eat as healthy as possible since my body is really wrecked (let that be a warning to anyone striving to be skinny!), anyway i know your meant to eat at least 5 fruits a day and since drinking is easier for me to do i was wondering which fruit drinks will count towards one of my five.
Ribena have some fruit juices but i hate ribena as i find it makes me more thirsty.
We have Supermarkets own brand Orange Juice which i like but i don't think thats as healthy.
If you have any recomendations that would be really appreciated, thank you.
I took the liberty of researching for you so I hope these would suffice =]:
The best way to consume fruit is raw, with its skin or with the skin peeled off on an empty stomach or 20 minutes before other meals. If you're not such a fruit-eater and want to have more from the good stuff, the best way to start eating fruit is to squeeze fruit juices. In this way you can get used to fruit and after drinking juices for a while you'll see that your appetite to have raw fruits will increase.
Tips
- Squeeze at least one fruit drink a day. In this way you eat about 3 to 4 fruits so you can fulfill your daily need;
- Put some ice cubes in the blender with your juice. This cools your fruit drink quickly in summer;
- Put a little bit of banana in your juice mix and blend it like a milk-shake. This gives your fruit drink a certain softness and reduces the bitterness (caused by grapefruits for example);
- Take sweet fruits to blend. Use citrus fruits (oranges, red-grapefruits) as a basis and mix it in the blender with the sweet fruits of your choice. You can squeeze a jar of orange juice that you keep in the fridge and blend it with the fruit of your choice when you want to.

So, I ended up losing my virginity to my boyfriend around Thanksgiving. Since then we've been having sex regularly. In early December we were having sex and he didn't pull out in time, and, well, you know the rest. After that I had an irregular and way lighter period that lasted longer than usual. But it was so off and different that it didn't even seem like a period. After I had stopped bleeding, we began having sex again. And, well, he didn't pull out then either...
My period has always been regular, always at the beginning of the month. And now it's Jan 13th and I'm getting worried.
What do I do? Am I pregnant?
My period has always been regular too but sometimes it isn't so I guess it's pretty normal.
Don't waste your time worrying too much and thinking the what if's. Go and get yourself a pregnancy test. The sooner you know the better so that you can face head-on on what you will do about it.
Im 25 and my ex is 24. She has a child that is not by me but never else I loved them both as if he was mine. We were together for close to two years. I proposed to her. After a week proposing to her she wanted to go and get eloped. I told her that I wanted to get a place and a vehicle before we got married. I didn't want to live 10 miles away from my wife. After i told her that she broke up with me and told me that i was too slow for her. I bought over 6 thousand dollars of diamonds and jewelry on her and she bought me a ring. When we broke up she told me that she wanted the ring back. I asked why. She told me that it was a symbol of her love and she didn't want me to have it. So i asked her for the stuff i bought her and she told me no because it was a gift. When we had sex I always gave her more than she ever gave. Did i do something wrong or what. Please help.
Based on your story, I cannot see anything wrong that you did. You have given more and asked for less. Plus not every guys can accept and own some other man's kid as his own.
The problem was her. I don't understand why she cannot wait for you to find a place and get a car considering you're doing it all for her. Maybe she's scared you might change your mind in the long run and not marry her at all.
Despite what happened I guess it's some kind of a good thing coz you have seen what kind of person she really is. I know you love her and everything but don't be blinded by what you feel. Perhaps she wanted the ring back and she doesn't want to return the stuffs that you bought for her coz she'll be needing them to finance herself and her son.
You have yet to meet the right person for you who can give you back the love that you deserve. Good luck!
This is going to be long. Sorry.
I tried talking with my mom about all of this earlier. I try to hide all of this from everyone as much as possible, so I don't think she really knew what I was talking about and she just kept saying, "Oh, It's just hormones and puberty!"
First of all, I'm almost positive my dad is bipolar. He has every symptom possible, not that he would ever admit that, and it's the same way for my grandpa. So I don't know if that's what's wrong with me, but I didn't think teens could even be bipolar...?
Last year, I would just have occasional mood swings. I thought that was just part of being a teenager and the whole "hormonal" thing. But since summer, it's gotten horrible. It started out where I would just have really good days and really bad days. Now it's weeks at a time. For the the past two weeks, I've been seriously depressed. I don't want to get up out of bed in the mornings. I have absolutely no energy, and I'm really annoyed all the time. I can't focus on anything, and I don't care about anything really. I wake up in the mornings and start crying for no reason and it's hard to stop. I don't want to go to school. I keep getting these headaches out of no where, and I don't want to eat. I just want to be alone and sleep. It's not one of those things where you can just "snap out of it" either. No one and nothing can make me feel better. But two weeks before THAT started, I had a really good week. Nothing really good happened or anything; I was just in this great mood. I couldn't sleep cause I just didn't want to. I had so much energy and I couldn't even make myself calm down. I'm pretty sure my heart was racing that entire week. I was so positive about everything and I couldn't have been happier. I probably could have run about five miles and not have been tired at all. I could barely sit still. Even though I was so happy, the littlest things would set me off. I would lose my temper and it was all I had to just leave the room. If I had stayed in the situation, I would have thrown something for sure.
I'm so stressed out all the time because I never know how I'm going to feel the next day. When I'm hyper or whatever you would call it, I feel like there's nothing wrong with me at all. Then when I'm the way I've been for the past few weeks, I know for sure something's wrong. I can't deal with this on my own anymore. I know no one on here is a doctor, but does anyone have any idea on what this is?
My advice would be for you to seek a healthcare provider. Have yourself diagnosed because the symptoms that you have mentioned could be signs of bipolar disorder. Kids and teens are also affected by this illness. Your parents might not recognize it so its highly recommended to consult in a nearby treatmnet center.
