advice
I want to lose weight before summer. How do I do this easily?
1) Workout -- do cardio 30-40 mins a day, 5-6 days a week.
2) Eat right -- focus on eating as much fruits and vegetables as you can. Look up Freeleethebananagirl on youtube, she is a vegan who eats about 5,000 calories a day but is TINY. Her videos are entertaining and she is amazing. If you are eating the right things, you don't need to restrict your calories
Ok, so here's the story.
I'm 17, a senior in high school, and I just can't stop thinking about this girl I like.
Over the summer I was lifeguarding with her in a camp upstate, we both lived on the same grounds so we saw eachother every day. For the first week or so that I was there we seriously hit it off, we talked to eachother for what seemed like hours, went on walks to the horse ranch nearby, and so on. Then for a little while she just suddenly stopped talking to me for the next 2 weeks, I confronted her about it and she told me that I had been acting a lot like my roommate, who in her opinion was a major tool. We made up and continued being friends, just we never got as close as we were that first week we met.
Over the course of the summer I found out she kinda had this guy who she liked, and he like her(a lot apparently) but because he had strict parents they couldn't go out, I got some hints over the summer that she might go out with me, and she even told me the fact that this guy can't go out with her wouldn't stop her from going out with other guys.
I can't stop thinking about her, it's getting really frustrating, it's been about 5 months since we met and I guess we are friends(we talk occasionally, I rarely see her though), I really want to be with her, but I seriously don't wanna kill a good friendship and make things awkward.
So my question is, is there anything I can do to make a move at going out with her? Or should I just leave it as it is, and get over it as best I can?
P.S. We don't go to the same school but live in the same area, she's one grade below me(but like 3 months younger)
P.P.S. Sorry I reposted this, last time apparently I did it anonymously.
TELL HER!!!!!!!!!!!
Tell her. As a girl, that is all you need to do. Tell her.
I'm black, and for some reason most of the guys I crush on end up being white. I've grown up in diverse areas, but with mainly white people and asians. My family is African, and most of the other black people I've known growing up have been either extended family or family friends, so none of the guys would be seen as potential romantic interests. I did like one guy in elementary school, but he ended up switching schools. And someone like Jimi Hendrix attracts me too, cause I'm into "underground" music and he just seemed to be with that whole mentality, too. I've been attracted to a few black guys I've seen at concerts, too, but unfortunately I only see those kinds of guys at concerts, and then I'd be too afraid to approach them unless we were like around each other, lol. In all honesty, I haven't felt very warm interactions with many other black people, I guess for not being "stereotypical" (apart from the African ones in my extended family, but even they sometimes think I'm weird), and I've had a few "African American" female friends who at one point kind of stopped interacting with me and I don't know why. I'm nice to everyone, and you can't expect everyone to act the same and have the same interests just cause of ethnicity/race. It makes no sense to me. But that kind of "shunning" did hurt, I guess. So, that paired with my school being mainly white and asian, most of my friends growing up (apart from familial ties, again) have been white and asian. I don't get why so many people still believe stereotypes, so I don't like a guy who feels they have to act like one and not like themselves and is hung up about all of that nonsense. I kind of have a high sexuality and I've watched porn, and most of the time it's ebony with a white guy. Like ever since around 7th grade most of my romantic interests have been white, mainly cause of where I lived. I tend to have more in common with them than other people, I've noticed. I've liked Asian, South American, etc. guys too, so you could also throw them into the mix. But sometimes I feel like there's something bad about what I feel? I don't know why. But like a porn with two people of the same race just seems boring and kind of gross. Like if I see porn with two black people it feels like it could be a family member or something and that turns me off. Is that weird? I feel weird for even watching porn at all. But I'm 18 and I'm trying to find the right guy, instead of just getting with anyone I don't love, so that's how I tend to release my pent up sexual energy. Like I'm into hardcore stuff and some bdsm (spanking, domination, that sort of thing). I want to be totally submissive, but I'm afraid of loving someone else 100% and getting hurt, cause it's easy for me to like others. And no, I'm not self hating or anything. I see all ethnicities as attractive, depending on the person, and find myself attractive, so idk. And I've talked about race a lot here, just for the purpose of this question, but I really just see everyone as humans (cause I know race is just a social concept), and accept people for the individuals they are. I guess it's just me for being weird and having weird interests. Music is one of the big things that attracts me to someone and where I live indie music isn't very much a big thing, and who tends to like indie music the most? Exactly. It's not even just music to me, it's probably the closest thing to my heart, so when someone else likes the same thing it's like, someone actually understands me and what I feel and don't know how to express.
It is actually biologically very normal to be attracted to people outside your ethnicity. The biological reason is: it will increase the randomization of the gene pool and likeliness to produce healthy offspring. When there are differences in genes it is more likely to cause randomization and decrease chances of birth defects. so it is normal.
Hey, opposites attract;)
I decided to go natural a couple of days ago and my hair is relaxed. I know I have to wash, condition and keep it moisturized. I don't want to cut off my hair. How do I keep my hair from breaking off since I'm not going to cut it soon? What are some good transition hairstyles?
Avoid heat for a couple months. Only straighten/blowdry once a week (like choose either Friday OR Saturday). Use coconut oil to moisturize it. I sleep in coconut oil all over my scalp, and it nourishes the scalp overnight. In the morning, shampoo it all out and I put a TINY bit on the ends. This keep the ends from frizzing and looking good. Try it out!
Let me know if you try it out! Works wonders for me:) Goodluck xx
ok so my guy friend weve been friends for quite a while now and i never knew that he really likes me how do i go about this ok well to start off with hes like lets say 29 or so and im like 19 so do i tell him i like him too that we can go out or do i just tell him i want him as a friend and thats it help me please
Haha I wouldn't suggest it, the age difference will be crazy. I am 20, dating a 26 year old and that age difference is almost too hard to handle. So yours would be even bigger. For example, if you go out to the bars, you will need a fake, and he hasn't had to think about using a fake id in about a decade...!! BUT, it does have its perks. My 26 year old dropped me off at home in a porsche..so I am sort of in love.
Think about it this way: When he graduated college, you were in 6th grade..
Let me know if y'all end up dating. I am truly curious.
Hi.. I'm 12 years old, female.
So yesterday, I got done eating and I asked my OWN dad for some gum. Then, he said "It's all 'candy candy candy gum gum gum' with you. " That's when I just wanted to cry.
And that's not all. Kids at school call me names too. I told them and all they did was tell them to stop - they didn't!! I told them again and they said "Well they should express their facts and opinions". I told my mom and she didn't care. They can't move me to another school.
I've been counting my calories for over a year now. On the app I had, I set it for 1200 calories I eat.. I may drop it down to just 1000.
My calves are fat, my chin is fat, my butt is fat, my stomach is fat (I seriously have to suck it in), my cheeks are fat.. Pretty much it. I hate my body and I want to go anorexic. Yeah, yeah anorexia is bad for your body but it will be better for me! I'm thinking about starving myself..
Listen if you start restricting your calories when your this young, you won't grow/develop through puberty well. This means when you're 19/20 years old, you will have serious METABOLIC ISSUES and you will NOT have the body of a victoria's secret angel. If you don't eat enough you will NOT DEVELOP PROPERLY!!! Simple as that.
If you think you are fat, I would suggest adding about 200 calories to your diet AND going for a ONE HOUR JOG. Dieting won't give you lean, sexy muscles, only exercise will. If you think your stomach is fat look up "8 mins abs" on youtube.
You are young so you should NOT be restricting your diet. I am 20 years old and very fit and dieted a bit in high school. It wasn't good and I found doing cardio is the best way to get a slim sexy body (in addition to a very balanced diet...if you wanna know about dieting successfully, drop one in my inbox). I hope you take my advice and start eating healthy and exercising instead of starving yourself. I am a pre-medical colleges student majoring in Nutrition and hope you make some healthier choices.
Goodluck. Let me know what goes down.
um i was wondering becuse if i was married i would want only one daughter and not have too many kids what can i do to prevent having too much children please help me
I would get your tubes tied:) this is a good option for married people that are in a committed relationship
What is the best diet to follow to loose 10 pounds in like 3 weeks.
Thank you
The best diet would to be eat MORE THAN 8+ servings of fruit and 5+ servings of vegetables a day.
Then for your non-fruit/veg foods, eat whole grains. ex--> whole grain toast with a JAM. do not eat cream cheese, butter, etc.
try to cut out all dairy, except for yogurts. no cheese, no milk. If you want to eat a whole grain cereal option like cheerios, I would suggest replacing milk with either coconut milk or almond milk. They are fewer calories and have more nutritious content then dairy milk.
ONLY drink water, juice, or tea (or coconut/almond milk!)..no milkshakes, soda, alcohol, etc!
Let me know if you follow this and your results. Losing 10 pounds in 3 weeks is definitely possible if you eat like this:) goodluck xx
got a little sunburn and it ruined my perfect snowy skin and now its tannish.how can i fix this
USE VASELINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It will fix it, restore moisture, reduce redness. Vaseline is good for burns.
Also, drink a lot of water.
Next time remember to use sunscreen! You can still get tan with it on!
I've known this boy since we where little but when we grew up we lost touch. And last year I had a friend tell him that I like him and since then he has been staring at me. I wonder if he likes me or not. Im a girl and I,m 13.
Yaah, typically if a 13 year old boy stares at you a lot that means he likes you.
I always fear all type of insects
SAME!!!!!!!!!!!
You're normal.
ok im 17/f
i like two guys but i need to narrow it down to one, cause i cant lead them both on. i have no idea so im looking for your opinions.
max: he is 19. At uni, works. Not the best of looking but really nice with a good sense of humor, really smart and is a challenge (which i like), he rides a motor bike which is a bonus but down side is he is VERY religious and we have very different views on the topic, generally leads to a massive debate or fight.
Mitch: 18, works. really good looking, very caring and he is a good listener, always telling me he misses me and always asking to see me again. down side we dont have alot in common, he doesnt get my sense of humor and sometimes i think its an act.
so im stuck, there both great guys! how do i know which one to choose? and how do i let the other one know i cant be more than friends?
I like Mitch...hey, opposites attract.
Now i study medicine, and most of my friends and my family always told me that i should study 1 more degree so that would help me in the future.
Is that really help? because i study medicine, so i'll be doctor, do i need BE degree to get more salary?
An English major will not help you get into med school. Having two majors may help you because it shows a higher level of education, but what the admissions office is looking for is that you are studying what you love.

So I like this kid who is in my math class, he is a junior and I'm a senior, he is so nice and cute after class we always talk and walk to lunch together. He even holds the door open for me after class. I want to be able to talk to him more but I don't have his number and I dont want to seem to forward? And does it seem like he likes me?
A great technique: Next time a test/quiz is coming up... ask him if he's prepared. If he says yes, CASUALLY say "oh gosh I'm not could you help me study?" because if he says no (which I doubt he will, he seems like a gentleman - and I know gentlemen I'm from the south)..then it won't be as embarrassing for you because it's not like you asked him on a date. If he says no, then say "me neither..wanna study together?" To answer your question, I'm sure he likes you from what you've said. Just do one of the above! I almost guarantee you itll work:)
GOOOODLUCK:) xx

I plan on working out twice a day, drinking water and eating 1200-1500 calories. Is this possible?
Yes it is possible to lose 35 pounds by January, but I suggest eating AT LEAST 1500 calories. If you don't eat enough/skip meals, you actually SLOW down your metabolism because your body goes into a "survival mode", so the few calories you consume they actually store as fat deposits.
Wake up, drink some coffee/tea, and eat: orange juice, whole grain toast, egg, and a yogurt. This is VERY balanced and will start your metabolism VERY EFFICIENTLY
then eat 5 200-300 calories snack-meals every 3 hours.
Make sure each snack meal contains veggies, fruits, whole grains, and protein.
An example: eat some carrots, a kiwi, some triscuits, and edamame (protein)
Another example: egg white omelet with chopped up onions, tomatoes, carrots, and mushrooms, and some whole grain toast with a 100% raspberry jam spread
-Mushrooms have HUGE health benefits
Basically, if you want to lose weight you actually will be more successful eating more calories of fruits and vegetables, instead of restricting calories.
How I know this: I am a college student studying nutrition. I know how to lose weight the healthy way. Some people think that cutting calories is enough, and sure it WORKS, but they will not have that "TONED" body they have in the mind; for example they're legs will get skinnier, but they may still have an awkward-sized midsection.
Finally, only drink water and juice, and may I suggest almond milk or coconut milk over dairy? They are actually delicious once you get used to it, have fewer calories than milk AND twice the calcium. They are a very very good nutritious beverage at low calories.
Like I said this is what I study, this is my passion. If you want more meal ideas ask! I also would like to know if you've taken my advice, so give me updates if you have the time:) I LOVE learning about peoples journeys with nutritional enlightenment.
Best of luck:) xx
i want to take my bf to the next leel i want him to kiss me and i think we are ready to go ontto another level like i want him to get close to me like go swimming together or you know i want him to get onto me and i want to know how to rub on hi like get into the sex feeling
i am a girl by the way plz help i want him to get into the sex feeling and you know start trying to rub on me like i ask him about going into the sex feeling and hes not sure so i want to sort of get close to him and rub on him like make him feel that we are ready and i want him to see more of me and me to see him so naked basicly and i want him to say im hot and sexy so i think we are ready to start rubbing on each other like we are ready for nakedness like sex wise we are close to sex i want him to feel me and me to feel him
This may not be what you want to hear but I doubt you're ready for sex...judging by the way you typed you are probably a 13 year old girl? I say wait it out. Keep on kissing, do it in a pool if you want to "feel each others bodies against each other" but I strongly suggest NOT going straight to sex... I know you're going through puberty and all hormonal but you should wait. Teenagers are too young to have sex and the last thing you want is to be pregnant.
14/f alot of stuff has happened in my life and so i never got a chance to really date in middle school. because alot of family issues and shit took me away from social life there was only one guy i liked and we were just really good friends and i think he liked me too. but we dont talk really anymore, though i want to change that hopefully. im going to date this year but idk i was just thinking like some people think 18 is old. but like anyone can say that im a really fun and all that, so im definitly not uptight about alot of stuff and i would not mind or care if i lost my virginity to my bf but my only thing is that i would do it when i want to with him and when im ready but i would be in a serious relationship though. but my sister is 18 and shes never really had a serious boyfriend, guys ask her out and shit but she turns them down becasue she doesnt want to waste her time on someone if shes not attracted to them or most of them were dbags good looking or not, thats mostly what happened with me. guys were never a priority to me or her but for her it was like all her life she basically was like if it happens it happens. and my sister is very like she dresses stylish but classy like she doesnt wear low cut stuff, me i dress nice too but if i go out with my friends i like to wear tight clothes sometimes, not slutty becasue i like my body plus me and her have different body types. shes short but very lean not a lot of muscle, skinny she doesnt do sports, and not really curvy. but im short and really curvy and skinny, and i do sports so im sure if she had my bod she would dress the same. anyway if you were to wait until 17/18 or even 19 to have sex with your boyfriend that you've been dating for a year or two is that like old? i know people are gonna say whenever your ready but really is that old? even if you guys say it is it doesnt mean im gonna lose my virginity to some dude when im 15/16 so idc just say what you want. thanks
Definitely not too old. I am 20. When I went to college I met lots of 18 year old virgins. Better to be a virgin rather than getting a reputation as a grimy slut...haha
