I am 17/F.
For the past 3 days I have been feeling crappy. It started with sore throat and headache, and now I am extremely tired and my muscles are sore. My throat feels swollen all the way up to under my ears. I go from burning up and sweating to freezing and getting chills and goosebumps constantly. Even as my head feels hot the rest of my body is freezing. My nose is running a lot, and i just feel kind of sad and confused some of the time.
Its possible i am just sore from cheerleading, and am tired from school, but im not sure. a girl on my team has mono and just recently started practice with us again, and i work with a kindergarten class 3 times a week, so that doesnt help much!
I hate wasting my moms money and going to see a doctor if its just a cold, but I'd also hate to continue daily activities that could mess up my spleen if i do have mono.
What do you think??? (link)

I really don't think that it is just a cold. I don't know much about mono, but it sounds like the flu to me. You could have mono, or strep throat, or another infection as well. I definatly think that you should visit a doctor to be sure that if you have something that needs prescription meds. you can get them. I hope you feel better soon!

If it is a sin to feel lustful, wouldn't that cause everyone to be a sinner? No matter if you realize it or not, because lust is a strong sexual desire.. correct? Well, if you guys are like my friends and I, and we talk about boys a lot cause we're lame, you probably have said something like "I would do such bad things to that boy" or whatever, you get my drift. Anyway, wouldn't that be considered lust?, which would be considered a sin?
I know that people masturbating isn't a sin but the lustful thoughts is what makes it one, cause in the bible it's never stated anything about masturbation. When I found this out I just became curious about those things, that's all.. haha. Thank you in advance. (link)

Everyone is a sinner, regardless as to lust. The Bible says "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"-Romans 3:23. Everyone has sinned in their life. I don't know anyone who has never disobeyed their parents or who has never lied. I used to work with children and saw even one and two-year-olds lie and tell their parents no in disobedience. But you can be redeemed. Ask God for forgiveness and accept Jesus as your Savior because he died on the cross for your sins and you will be forgiven and will become a child of God who will inherit the kindgom of heaven when you die. Yes lust is a sin: Matthew 5:28
"But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." You shouldn't be thinking about having sex or sexual things with someone that you aren't married to. Everyone struggles with this sin at times like they struggle with telling a white lie or going against thier parents. But we can all pray to God and ask him to help us with our sin and we can begin to sin less. We will always sin even when we become Christians, but we can reach a point where we will sin less than we used to. And when we do sin we need to ask God to forgive us.

Where do we go when we are dead? what happens? do we come back as something or someone else? if we are dead there is no point of living. Think about it for a long moment (it makes me feel wierd.) don't say no one knows... unless NO ONE does know. It doesn't matter what religion you are (im christian) but i don't go to church... i'm like no religion lol. (link)

When you die you either go to heaven or hell. You do not stay on the earth or reincarnate. You have a soul. When you die your body dies but your soul, the core of who you are still exists. It either goes to heaven or to hell. You will one day recieve a new body if you go to heaven. You will suffer in loneliness separated from God and everyone if you go to hell. You will be in eternal torment. You can go to heaven by simply trusting Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You repent of your sins and ask Him to come into your life and then trust Him to lead your life by keeping His commandments and loving others. You will still sin even after becoming saved (which is what I just described), but you will not want to sin and will try to live better. Once you have recieved salvation nothing or no one can take that away from you. You will go to heaven. Revelation 21 in the Bible talks about heaven and hell. I would recommend going to church and talking to them more on the subject. I would also recommend googleing more Bible verses on the subject.

last year at school i had headlice. i felt horrible all summer, bu have fianaly cut my hair and got rid of them. i was nervous this september that i might get them, but i am sure i havent. i'm so glad not to have them now, but a friend told me privately yesterday that she nows i have headlice. i prentended to agree with her, telling her the truth about catching it of my friend, and having a hard time getting rid of it. but the thing is, i am so sure i got rid of them, and i know this sounds stupid, but i feel really bad, like my self-confidence has shot down by miles. i want to tell her the truth. i'm sure she doesn't blab about it, but she might tell her friends, which i hate, cos i feel really self concoius. should i tell her that they've gone now? i have nothing to feel guilty about, right. i mean, i just caught it off someone else and nits prefer clean hair, so it's not bad right my mom gave me such a hard time about it last year, and i feel kinda ashamed. i didn't do anything wrong, so why so i feel like this. i go to a school where a lot of the girls are kinda snobby, and it just feels weird. i've been obsessing over this all night and i could use some advice. thanx so much (link)

You have nothing to be ashamed about. Anyone can get lice, especially people with clean hair. Tell the girl that you got rid of them and that they wouldn't allow you to be at school if you still had them. Which is true because it is contagious. I know it is an embarrassing thing because people may treat you like you are contagious still or are dirty even though it is not true. As time passes, people will forget all about this and will be talking about something else. In the meantime don't share hats or brushes with anyone.
The kids are inspected at elementary schools around here periodically for lice and are sent home until all of the nits are removed from their hair. A nurse checks them to be sure when they come back to school.

I am wondering if I should stay married? To make a long story short My husband has never acted like he is in love with me. We are not affectionate and intimacy seems robotic and a chore. I have caught him in many white lies I have caught him hitting on other women (while he is drunk) and he hid a facebook page for over a year and deleted it after I found out and lied about a co-worker who was younger. I have snooped as a result of the lies and have never found anything horrible he just acts suspicious. He has stopped drinking and claims to be completely honest. I am waiting for the next ball to drop and not sure if I want to go on like this anymore but I am afraid I will throw it all away and he truly wants to change now. I feel like a doormat and am very confused. Again I have never caught him physically cheating not that it really matters b/c emotional is sometimes worse. Do I give him another chance and risk being a doormat b/c there are no guarantees anyway? (link)
| |
Since you said that he has stopped drinking, I would give him a chance to see if he is going to stop lying also. I would tell him that you feel like he has never treated you as if he really loved you and I would ask him if he does and if he wants to save the marriage. If he does then I would ask him to go to couples counceling. They can bring out your feelings and his, as well as give tips and assignments on how to ignite and keep romance in your marriage. You made a commitment sometime ago to spend your life with this man, now I think that you need to do everything possible to work it out.

ok so like if u go out to eat and then you kiss your boyfriend right after, wouldnt the kiss like taste bad or something???? (link)
| |
When I started dating my first boyfriend I was worried about this too. It usually won't taste bad unless one of you has had something really overpowering such as garlic. If you are worried then you could carry some mints or gum with you and pop it in after the meal.

Okay here's the problem. I have a small group of friends that I hang out with in school. When we're glad and happy, it's all howdy-dowdy and good. However, if I ever mess up or become upset, they joke around and laugh at me (in a "friendly" manner they say). Since I'm Asian and smart, they think that if they get a higher grade than me, they can go "Ohh! I beat you!" or "Oh-! Is your mom going to say,'YOU FAIL TEST GO TO SWEATSHOP NOW'?". When I'm upset, they say things like, "What's wrong, got a B+ ?" They also make mean jokes and insult and criticize my art jokingly. (With things like,"Why does she look like a slutty schoolgirl?" or "Her eyes are retarded.")
I'm pretty sure they don't mean any of it, but it just pushes my buttons. I'm unsure whether I should tell them how I feel, because they always have something to say and will probably try and make me look like the enemy (Which has happened before). But If I leave them, there's nowhere else to go. I'm really shy and there's not much people I know...
What should I do? (link)
| |
You should definatly tell them how you feel. Tell them that you think that it is offensive that they use such stereotypes like that. If they decide to turn it around on you and continue this behavior, I would try to make new friends because you should not have to put up with this type of behavior. I would suggest attending an afterschool club of interest to make new friends or try befriending the kid beside of you in one of your classes. Hang in there. When I was in 6th grade I tryed making friends with many people and was rejected. The one girl that was my friend for a while started treating me wrong. The next school year I continued trying to make new friends and finally did.

sooo ok dont judge me because im asking this. im completely normal, i just love my boyfriend so much. weve been dating for 2 years and he suffers from schitzophrenia and he refuses to take medication because he hates the way it makes him feel. i feel so horrible 4 him because he is in so much pain and its just getting so much worse. i know he doesnt want to live anymore. yesterday he asked me to kill him and at first i didnt think he was serious but we talked for a while and he said it was the only way or he would do it himself. i dont want him to go to hell for committing suicide so i told him i would kill him so id go to hell instead. i havnt decided if im going to kill myself yet because my boyfriend says he doesnt want me to do that. but i dont know if i could deal with the fact i killed the boy im in love with. but what happens if a 16 year old kills another 16 year old who asked her to do it? jail? death penalty? psychiatric center forever? im not crazy im just putting the one i love out of his misery because i cant stand him being in pain any longer. id rather be in pain for him. just wanna know what would happen. dont try to do all that talking out of it and stuff either. wont work. thanks (link)

You and your boyfriend need to both accept Christ as your Savior. It says in the Bible that all sins can be forgiven except for blaspheming the holy spirit (rejecting the holy spirits call to repent for your sins and accept Christ.)So murderers can be forgiven too. But, if you love Christ you will no longer want to commit a sin like that. You are not doing your boyfriend a favor by killing him. He needs help from the Lord. By the way, he is still sinning and putting an end to his life by asking you to do it for him. You both will spend an eternity out of heaven and away from each other and God unless you ask God for forgiveness of your sins and make Him a part of your life. The Bible says that He won't give one something that they cannot bare. He needs to turn to the Lord for help with his pain. Pray for your boyfriend and find a good church to attend and read the Bible.

How heavy is inplantation bleeding (a sympton of pregnancy)? Is it similar to that of a period, heavier than that, or lighter? I believe that I may be pregnant (I've got strong, other symptoms), and I just had what was a little less than my regular period but more than just spotting. It lasted about three days. Is my period just light this month for some reason? Thanks guys! (link)

It is possible to be pregnant and still have some bleeding during pregnancy. This could be normal, or it may be something more serious. I recommend that you see your doctor.

Hi♥
Well, my bf is amazing.I really love him, and he loves me to. We been threw a lot together, and we couldn't be together, i let him go because i couldn't take the idea of him liking me and having feelings for someone else.I understand that now because i went threw it to. Well, i let him go and my best friend scolded me for it because she said he was the"one", and now I'm really thinking that because he came back to me and told me his true feelings for me. That he loves me.We are really close, we talk everyday and all night..i want it to stay this way♥ How can i keep him? I'm scared that we won't last, my other friend is negative and she says she's been here before and it won't last. I don't believe that but she keeps telling me "well when he breaks your heart don't come F***ing cry to me about it." It makes me feel awful that she doesn't believe in us ;'(. How do i keep positive about this? I have problems staying positive about things i worry way to much. Thanks for reading! Please help? (link)

I think that your relationship absolutely can make it. I wouldn't listen to your so-called friend. She isn't much of a friend if she isn't going to be there for you if you go through a breakup. If you love him, keep dating him and keep telling him how you feel.

Note:This is so emotional for me to write..bare with me.To start things off,I just wanna say thanks to whoever reads this.God..I really just need to be heard.Ok..I graduated High school may of this year..2009.I have no job(I have been looking!),Im not enrolled in college or anything(I really want to be!),and basically I feel like my life is being put on hold.Senior year was really hard for me.I had senior due's to pay including prom,senior pictures,ect.Not having a job at the time,the only thing(or shall I say person)to depend on was my mother.I guess my mom didnt wanna waste her money on my senior year so she didnt.She didnt pay so I missed out on so much and I was crushed.To see all my fellow senior classmates wear their senior t-shirts and everything made me feel sooo left out.So,now thats its fall season(college season),I really want to go to college and get a higher education.But the one thing that is stopping me is money.I have like the selfish parents ever.I love both my mom and dad dearly,but at times like this I just dont feel cared about.I cry like every night when I hear how much fun my friends are having in college and the way they love their dorm rooms and i feel like I have never had the chance to better myself.I recently learrned of goverment grants out there and decided to appy.But in the process,I learned that in order to recieve the book and guide I had to pay an $1.95 shipping and handling fee.You apply for grants on the internet and therefore have to enter you credit card number.I dont have a credit card.And If i did,there wouldnt be any money on it becuase I dont have a job to start with.So I asked my parents..I got a no.My heart broke in two.I cant even get $1.95 for a mailing fee.I feel stuck and that I will never get to where I want to be.I've tried everything..Finacial aid,scholarships,everything.I sit in my room waiting for that day to come when someone or something is gonna change my whole life.I pray every chance I get and my faith is still a little rocky.On september,18,2009,I will be eighteen years old.Legal of age.A young woman.If I was granted one wish on that day my wish would be to start my life...the right way.I would want to start living and not just existing.So..I want some help from you guys.I want you guys to help me to understand that everything will be ok and that my life WILL get better and that im not wrong for wanting to better myself becuase right now..at this very moment..I dont need a best friend or a million dollars.I just need someone to listen.Someone to understand.
Thanks to all the readers. (link)

It is much cheaper to start out at a community college and then transfer after 2 years to a university. I recommend going down to your local community college and ask to speak to someone about applying for grants and other financial aid. It should be free. It was for me. The person at the college applied for me right then and there by asking me questions. I would also look for any kind of job possible at this point so you will have some type of income and won't have to rely on your parents. I am sorry your parents are so selfish. I hope that you have a good birthday.

okay hi i have a lot of questions so bare with me here. i'm 17/f. i don't have a boyfriend, but i'm basically 'with' this guy. we've been hooking up on and off since like february. so that's like 7 months. he's liked me on and off since like freshman year and i never really had any interest in him until last year. we would hook up on and off but i hooked up with a bunch of other guys this summer and didn't really like him or want to be tied down to anyone. (i liked other guys this summer too). anyways, he is the sweestest, cutest guy ever. he REALLY, and i mean REALLY cares about me. he honestly makes me feel like i'm the prettiest girl in the world. just the way he looks at me and kisses me. the last week of summer, i got really drunk and threw up all over at a party i was at and he sat behind me for like 2 hours while i threw up and then carried me to his car and made sure i got to my friends house safely and then came over to my house the next day to make sure i was okay. and i had hooked up with another guy that night. and he knew it. not that i did anything wrong because we aren't going out but since he likes me he obviously doesn't like it when i hook up with anyone else. i know that most of my friends wouldn't do that for me. anyways, the past few weeks i haven't hooked up with anyone else but him. and i told him i don't want to. and he doesn't want to either. we're like basically going out but we aren't. i'm scared to. because every time i start going out with a guy i don't like him anymore. so i don't know how to prevent that from happening again. i just don't like feeling tied down. but i really like him a lot. maybe even love him. and i don't just throw that word around. i want to go out with him but i'm scared i'll stop liking him. and also i have problems with relationships because i have huge problems showing someone i like them especially around other people. i fight with this guy a lot about dumb things. he gets mad at me a lot. but we always make up. we joke that if we were married we would have angry make up sex every night. that kinda fighting haha. nothing huge. but anyways i've been thinking about having sex with him because we've done pretty much everything but that and i feel like i'm ready and i know i can trust him. i know he likes me a lot. but i don't want to do it yet. maybe in a month or two. i want to be going out with him before we have sex but i feel like if i start going out with him i won't wanna have sex with him anymore. it's complicated. i'm not very scared of getting emotionally attached to him because i know he would like that haha. like he really likes me a lot. and that would probably help our relationship anyways. but what if i don't like it? or what if he doesn't? and does it hurt? i'm REALLY tight. like 2 fingers hurt. pretty bad. so i'm not really sure what to do about that because his penis is pretty big. help? (link)

I just want to say that you are young and you are at the age where you can make a lot of huge decisions now that you can end up regreting later. Most people do not end up marrying their high school sweetheart. I want to encourage you to wait to have sex until you are married. I know that not everyone agrees with this especially in this society, but think about it. Would you regret waiting once you are married and you can tell him you have saved all of your love for him? Probably not. But, you very well could end up regreting having sex too early and with the wrong person. I had boyfriends in highschool and never slept with them. I just enjoyed hanging out with them, kissing, and the little romantic things we did for each other. I think that you should do the same. I am a Christian and that is why I have the beliefs that I do. I have not regreted my decisions. I hope this helps.

hey im 18/f im in college. well i go to community college. i have crush on this guy named Chris. he's really cute, but he thinks way to highly of himself. in other words he's cocky, but he's really quiet and doesn't talk much. in class i said to him oh you must think your really cool and he said i don't think im cool i know i am. and that really got to me cause even my friend James who sits behind me was laughing. I talked to Chris on facebook and we talked about how i thought that he was insecure so that's why he acts cocky. but he denied it. he also told me that he has 2 older brothers, and i think that's why he is the way he is. and he lives with his mom. but when i was talking to him on facebook it was weird because i felt like i was doing all the talking. i kept asking him all the questions and i kinda felt like i was being annoying. So how do i talk to someone who is really quiet? and is it bad that i asked him a lot of questions? for ex. i asked him when his birthday was and he just told me it was in October. he didn't say what day. i have a really bad habit of getting way too excited when i talk to a guy, i talk too much, i start looking at their facebook constantly. and i ask way to many questions. and i don't want to mess this up. and i asked him if he wanted to hangout like after class and he said he couldn't because he has work. He has 2 jobs. so i tol d him to let me know when he can hangout but he hasn't so far. so help. sorry this is really long. (link)

To be honest with you, it sounds like this guy just likes you as a friend #1, and #2 he sounds like he is a bit immature and like he is not ready for a relationship right now anyway. Don't be over anxious to get a boyfriend, just have lots of friends and when you find a mature guy show him your interest in him.

Hey, i tried putting a tampon in for the the first time yesterday and i had trouble getting it in.
Am i supposed to do anything special, is it supposed to hurt like that?
Gr! :( (link)

The brand can make a big difference. The first couple of brands that I tried had the cardboard applicators which made them hard to go in and hurt. I recommend Tampax pearl. The applicator is smooth plastic and works great.
