Hi, my name is Katie and I'm 15 years old. In those fifteen years I've literally been through more than most people go through in their entire life. I absolutely love helping people, and I've been told by many people that I'm good at it. I'll definitely love to give you advice, but I'm telling you right now I will say what I think, I'm not going to sugar coat everything or tell you what you want to hear just so you'll give me good ratings. So if you have any questions, about anything at all, just ask away, I'd be more than happy to help =]

why do people have sex when they aren't trying to have a baby? I mean is it that pleasurable?? As you can tell i am a virgin. I want to know why i should have sex and when i know that i am "ready to"! (link)
|
You do not have to have sex when you are "ready to". It's your choice.
A few reasons people tend to have sex when they aren't trying to become pregnant are:
They want to express their love for each other in a deeper, meaningful way.
Teens feel pressure because supposidly "everyone is doing it".
Pleasure.
You always have a choice. It's your body and you don't have to have sex if you don't want to.

i want to be really skinny, and nothing will work! so i decided to be anorexic, how do i become anorexic? like, how do i start, i know that ussually it an illness but it just seems easey! please help! :D (link)
|
Okay, first of all let me warn you that what I am about to say is going to be very harsh, but you need to hear it.
ARE YOU FREAKING STUPID!?
Why on earth would you want to become anorexic, it is a mental/health disease which people spend years and years trying to get out of but never can! Do you want to die from lack of nutrition? Do you want to look like a walking skeleton!?
I know how bad you want to lose weight, but anorexia is not the right answer. Talk to your doctor about dieting pills that you could take or another route to take.
Believe me, I've seen anorexic people in my school, IT IS NOT CUTE, FUNNY, ENTERTAINING OR ATTRACTIVE!

i need a step by step explanation of how to w4w someone on myspace (link)
|
Whore for whore.
Another myspace term for crazy friend collecting myspace whores.
You make a whore code. Which is basically, your picture, and a stupid self proclamation of why you're cooler than the rest of the world.
You then exchange codes with someone who posts equally obnoxious bulletins every four seconds.
You post each others codes in a bulletin so that people on the other person's friend list will hopefully add you.
[Definition from urbandictionary.com]

i say making-out is kisssing for moree than maby 10 seconds but my boyfriend said that making-out is kissing and touching each other while your kissing.he'se convinced of his side but im very sure im right i just wanna make sure. (link)
|
Making out isn't strictly just anything. Basically it's kissing for a long time, usually it involves touching, rubbing, feeling.. etc. It doesn't have to though.

Okay my mom has had the worst marriage with her husband. He has left her twice and they have only been married for four years. He's been gone more then he`s liver with her. He always finds women off the internet off them find a mate type things. && my mom will think everything is fine && he`ll up && leave. there is so much more that goes on at home when he`s here. when he lives her he basically lives off her because he can`t get a decent job basically because he doesn`t have a highschool diploma. he always calls me names && tries to put me and my brother and sister down. my mom is in such denial its not even funny she trusts him way to much he has stole alot of money from her and she still gives him her bank card. my mom is jus too nice.
so i want to know is there anyway i can see if hes been looking up women. i know our history is empty and i don`t understand the recycling bin thing. so if you can please help that would be great. (link)

I'm not really computer savvy, and I think the only way to really search it up is to take someone who knows how to dig deep for that stuff. Next time he's on the computer keep your mom near you and sort of talk with her but keep an eye on what he's doing as well. Be sneaky about it, don't let him know. Try to catch him in the act, that's all I can say.
But if that doesn't work, which it might not, then just open up your moms eyes. It sounds like she needs a HUGE wake up call.
In the end it's going to come down to your mom being the adult and kicking him out.
I really hope everything works out for the best!
One of my best friends is going through the same situation, and I know how hard it is on you!!
Stay strong!!

Im Thirteen, and im a female.
Im going into 8th grade, and this
guy i like is going into 9th.
We like each other, but im having troubles
trying to get to where I..trust him
I guess you can say. He's had a past
girlfriend, who im very very good friends
with. And they well.. went out for about
two years and had sex. And Me and Him
just recently broke up from like just a one
month relationship, i broke up with him.
And I here him & my friend he had a past
relationship with had started talking,
and said they still love each other,
but im suppose to not know that, so i cant
confront him or her about it. And he says
I love you. And i say i love you too, or
the other way around. All over text.
We do not whatsoever seem to ever talk on
the phone.
So i guess what im asking is,
how do i control all these feelings of
knowing they have a past relationship,
and knowing they have recently talked about
it. Although he says he loves me.
(link)

Well he's lying to one of you girls. Either he loves you, or her. I think the best thing to do in this situation is to just tell him you heard him and her talking and see what he says. Honesty is seriously the best thing to do in relationships. It'll all come out in the end anyway. Talk to him and let him know how you feel about everything.
Do that and come back to me if you have any problems!
Good luck!

Okay well heres the thing...
i dont eat anything for breakfast or lunch.
but then i eat half my dinner [at the most] because my family is watching me, and so i have a little bit of energy for the next day.
when i eat, i feel fat and bad [like sad, depressed, bad].
do you think im struggling from anorexia? (link)
|
Okay, this whole thing is going to sound mean but only because I have very strong feelings on this matter: Only you really know that answer fiy ou are anorexic or not. From what it sounds like you might be in the beginning phases. Child, don't do this to yourself. Eat some food. In the end and when you're over your "anorexic phase" you'll look back and realize how stupid it was. Unless you are extremely obese then I seriously, SERIOUSLY, doubt you should even consider not eating. Nobody should for that matter. Alot of people, normally teenage girls, worry about their weight all of the time when the realization is that they are a normal weight teen!
So save yourself some hard times, embarassment, and troubles with your family and eat some food.

i have this best friend, who is a guy and i really like him. but i keep trying to forget him because he doesnt like me in that kind of way. the problem is that he makes it seem like he does so much and my friend kate tells me she thinks he does based on how he acts. i wish he wouldnt confuse me so much because he led me on in this way twice already and he never really liked me.
the other day i saw him and he said he had made me a bracelet out of staples because he got bored. then i left early that day so he and kate were talking and he said out of nowhere..."does sam like me?" and then kate said "why do you ask? do you like her?" and he said "no." so then kate said "she doesnt like you either." and that was the end of that. but then yesterday he and i were on the phone and i couldnt really hear what he ws saying. my phone is crappy. i thought i heard him say "i like you." but then i said "no you dont. you hate me." [i was just playing around though cuz i always say i hate him haha]
but the thing is i dont want to believe he likes me. and i dont want to ask him if he does. he told me he didnt like me 3 weeks ago and why would he like me now? i can handle being best friends because i love him a lot [not in love with him just love him] but how do i know how he feels? even when all the signs are there he doesnt like me because hes done the same exact thing 2 times and its not like he means to. thank you so much!

That does seem a bit complicated. The best I can say, since I can't even seem to tell if he likes you, is to wait it out. If he asks you out then he likes you, lol. Tell him no if you don't want to go out with him.

does anyone know any frienhip quote about the friend is moving to somewhere else? shes not my bestfriend but good close friend so i need a quote about her moving thank you =] (link)
|
My favorite one is:
Friendship isn't a label, it's a promise.
It doesn't have anything to do with moving, but it's a really good one.

Thanks for answering my question about yeast infections earlier. Well I went to the doctor to see if I had a urinary tract infection but he said I didn't but might have a yeast infection but he didn't actually say if I did or not. But he said I could get this one medicine for it at the store. If I take the medicine but don't actually have the yeast infection will I get sick? (link)
|
I'm not a doctor, but I would think you wouldn't get sick. But just to make sure you should probably ask your doctor.
No problem for answering your question, I'm here for you whenever.

I went to the doctor and he said I might have a yeast infection. Is it common to get one? Has anyone on here had one? (link)
|
Yes, completely normal. People get them all the time. Don't worry about it.

my ex boyfriend is telling
people that im a bad kisser,
and that i dont know "how" to make out .
i've made out with more then one person already,
and no one has ever said anything about the way i make out.
is it just him, or do i really suck at life ?!
(link)
|
Okay, no offense, but your boyfriend sounds like a complete ass.
He just needs to shut his mouth, if he really cared about you he wouldn't go running around telling everyone that you're a bad kisser.
Tell him how you feel about it. And let him know that your willing to work on your kissing so that it meets his standards. Ask him to teach you how to kiss so that he enjoys your makeout sessions as well.

Ok so this guy and I have had sex like three or four times before. Once we had sex in the back of his car and the condom broke, that was like three days after my period stopped. Then we had sex unprotected in his dorm and then in the middle of having that he slipped on a condom. I haven't had my period yet and it's beed a month since I've had my last period. Actually to be exact I haven't had my period since April 14, 2007 and today is May 23, 2007. Could I be pregnant? Also can you have your period and be pregnant still? BTW I am 17 yrs old. (link)
|
It's possible that you are pregnant. You might want to go get a home pregnancy test.
-Katie
|
|
my boyfriend and i have been having sex for about a month now. We use condoms and i don't want to get on birth control pills because my parents may be able to tell. is there anything else i could do to prevent pregnancy (link)
|
The safest and best way to prevent pregnancy is not having sex at all. Condoms break. That's all their is too it. If you don't want to get pregnant then you should probably wait until your mom can buy you the pill, you'd be safest that way. Sorry, but that's all I have to tell you.

my boyfriend and i had anal sex and i kind of pooped a little....it was on the condom and he was like "you pooped". i was so embarrased but does that happen often. (link)
|
Well, I've never had anal sex before so I can't tell you a story about me, but it only makes sesnse to me that if something is going into your anus (where you poop from) that there will be somthing on the condom coming out. So yeah, it's normal. I'm sure it's happened lots of times. Don't worry about it.

I really need as much answers as possible.
To start off, I'm 16 Female and I have HIV. It got transmitted to me from my mom at birth, so it wasnt my fault what so ever!! So I've been dating this guy for a while now and I told him i have this HUGE secret, which i will tell him when im ready and in the beginning of our relationship, I tested the waters to see How he would handle the HIV situation. So I asked him, "what would you do if I had HIV?" and He replied "I'd still love you, and i would still have sex with you." So, I was SO relieved to hear that, I was happy that he would accept me and we'd still have a relationship without worry! And that was about 2 months ago!! Then last night I asked him Again what he'd do, and he replied "well, if we were getting married then yeah I would have sex with you, but if we werent getting married, then no i wouldnt have sex with you " SO i was SO upset! and said how low that was, because his answer was completetly different before, and i also told him that
"if he wouldnt accept me if i had HIV then he wouldnt accept my "secret" " because IT IS my Secret! but he doesnt know what my secret is. so then he said "well if it was some girl i didnt know and didnt love then no i wouldnt have sex with her but if it was you then I would." so I DONT KNOW WHAT I DO! should I tell him now and get it over with??!! Tell me answers!! HELP! and please dont say that i shouldnt have sex!! BECAUSE I DONT NEED THAT ANSWER!! I've made up my mind that i do want to have sex with him.
I really hope this makes sense! (link)

Wow, this is difficult. Okay, first off I think you need to come completely honest with your boyfriend. He obviously deserves to know "your secret". Let him know that you have an HIV that was passed down from your mother and that you had no control over it whatsoever. Let him know how much he means to you, and talk about it with him. The talk could last an hour, it could last all night, it could last a week! But you need to get everything out in the open. Let him know that you're scared he won't have sex/love you anymore if he knows you have HIV. But I'm sure if he really loves you he'll stick it out and see a way around the situation. Who knows, you two may even end up married.
If he bails out on you then, who needs him right!? Why would you want to be with a guy who can't accept you and all the little quirks that come along with you? I'm sure your guy will make the right choice in the end.
You just really need to talk it out with him. Let him now. Face to face, not on the phone, myspace or at school around all of your friends.
Maybe you should have the talk this weekend together.
I wish you luck, and I hope everything works out for the best!!!

what if i was kidding around with my friend but they are one of the sensative types that don't always take the joke in the right way and i got yelled at by her first so today i said this word that they always say a lot over and over again, and now they're mad at me and won't let me appologize what should i do? (link)
|
Give her time to cool off, she'll come around. If she's not on good terms with you tomorrow at school then call her up tomorrow night and let her know that your friendship means too much to you to let it be blown off by you kidding around and that you are really sorry.
Good luck, I hope things work out for you and your friend!
-Katie
EDIT:
You're welcome. You asked how I knew it was a girl.. you said you got "yelled at by HER first so today...". I picked up on the her.
Plus guys don't cause that much drama over little things =]

ive never made out before but i want to soo bad..like guys are always asking me to make out..bbut i dont want them to be like your a bad kisser and then go tell their friends..what should i do..should i practice on something..and ifyes..then what? (link)
|
I had the same problem with my first makeout, but don't stess out about it. 98% of the time the guy takes the lead, so just mimic what he does with his mouth/tongue and you'll be fine. And if he says anything about you being a bad kisser, then he obviously is one too because you were only doing what he was! But unless you completely bite his tongue/lip really hard then I don't think he'll say anything about you being a bad kisser.
Good luck, have fun and play around a little (but be careful as well).

Its the story of two southern women living in rough times together. It's very funny and sad as well.
You'll really enjoy it. It's one of my favorites.
