Q: im moving in 2 months and i keep trying to make time to see my bf because we go to different schools but hes always too busy. i dont know what to do because we havent hiung out just him and i in over a month!! we have seen each other at church/youth group and gone to service together and madeout in between services but thats all. im LEAVING and he doesnt have time!! it kills me but i cant just sit around waiting for him. but also it would literally break my heart everyday to not be with him and i dont know what to do. i love him more than i have ever loved anything (besides God and my family) and he is my best friend. we have been best friends for 2 years and started dating in december. please help me i know hes busy but i cant sit around waiting for when hes free. but also i coulndt bear to be without him!!! please help im so lost and heart broken. also he doesnt see the point in keeping our relationship if im moving in 2 months because we will just break up and he always thought we would date for years. and no long distance isnt an option. and some may say the best thing to do would be break up now but 1) i couldnt waste the last time i had with him not being with him (trust me i would die hes my best friend and i couldnt just be friends with him-i LOVE him) and 2) i want to spend as much time together with him as possible (hes just ALWAYS BUSY and he cant help it either) i have no idea what to do at all please help me

ps we are both in high school
think...if there was 2months left in school, and you were failing a class, would you see the point in going if you were just gonna fail anyway?(i hope you don't get mad from my logic)
Maybe he thinks that 2 months to prolong a failure is just 2 months to long.

Q: http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=536260

a couple days ago my crush randomly out of nowhere asked me "what is the temperature?" i asked him what he meant and he was just like, "you knoww, the temperature" and since i was clueless, he just brushed it off with a "nevermind" and turned around, laughing. not knowing what he meant, i searched on urbandictionary.com and thought that he MIGHT have asked me if i think he's hot / dig him.

what do you think he meant by that? what's the double meaning behind what he meant?
It could've meant either thing. Maybe for some weird reason he wanted to know the temp. But that culd have also been because he wanted to talk to you. Like sometimes guys take the advice that if you want to talk to your crush make some small talk(how's the weather?Wasn't math hard?do you like the movie _____?)

Or he could have just wanted to know the weather...but i am thinking that it was probly more of what i said in the paragraph above this one.
Hope I helped!

Q: 15/f

the rules are
NO jeans; warm-ups; sneakers; work boots; ballet slippers; short/tight skirts, leggings, dresses (like prom dresses), tight pants; cargo pants; hip-huggers; shorts; tee shirts; midriff or low cut tops; see through clothing, etc

thanks in advance
wear cakis or a knee length skirt. and a dress shirt. if you don't want my opion don't put ur problems on here.

Q: Hi I'm 14'f,
After school i found blood in my knickers so i showed my mum and she said that it was my period and it went on for about 6 days and i wore pads and it seemed like a period but 2 months after i haven't got my period yet, so i also masturebate as well so did i pop my cherry (hymen) or is it my period i'm really scared what is it?
thanks in advance
when i 1st got mine. i got it then i didn't get it for 3 months then not for about 2 months. then it is now sort of regulated. about 3yr later

Q: Hi I'm 14/f
I was just wondering what is a boner because i've heard people say boys get a boner when they masturebate or whatever.
Thanks so much!
Boner=erection
or when ur penis stands up.

Q: I am 15/f and i this year I started at a new High school. I have made a few girl friends but no one that i spend a lot of time with. I always seem to be hanging out with the guys. At lunch i sit with a table full of guys and one other girl(my best friend who also switched schools). During class when we group up to work on projects I always end up with all guys, one even being my best friends ex. Is this weird? Why do I have such a hard time making friends. I'm not trying to be vain when I say this, but I really am a likeable person. Nice, compassionate, and caring. Is something wrong with me?
i am the same way. it's not bad. it's just that you get along better wtih guys like i do. there is alot less drama and less whinging. it is ttly normal! You probly grew up with mostly brothers(i did that why i get along with guys better anyway)

Hope i answered ur q.

Q: hi im m/14 and i have a few problems that are getting in the way could someone diagnose me with something? i am ALWAYS tired no matter how much i sleep. i have problems getting to sleep but once im asleep ill sleep for as long as i can. i find it extremely difficult to get up in the morning and takes me very long to get up. i always miss breakfast as a result. as well as this, i have cold hands and feet, always thirsty, freqent urination, dry skin and find it hard to put on weight, recently ive been notcing blurred vision and the last few years my grades have been going down quite alot. i find it hard to concentrate in class and i dont really care any more. im always relaxed and slow and only occasionaly im happy. sometimes i get depressed.
well...it sounds alot like early diabetes...but thats just my guess...all the symptoms are there..

Q: Today was my third day of high school. I'm a freshman, and not liking it too much so far. I know it's early to be judging it so quickly, but I can't seem to meet new people. I'm intimidated by the upper classmen in some of my classes, and people in my grade are kind of..cold? My high school is a mixture of 2 larger middle schools and 2 smaller ones. I used to go to a smaller one, so there may only be one or two kids in my class from my middle school whereas there are a lot of kids from a larger middle school in one class where people know each other. I kind of miss the security of my middle school where I was comfortable, knew everyone, and had a lot of friends I could be myself around. Should I wait a little longer to see what people are like before I get too freaked by this whole situation? Thanks
Hey! it's gonna be o.k i have just started H.S about 2 weeks ago. It gets better. Hey, if you have any friends that go to your school walk with them, and eat lunch w/ them if possible. You guys can get through the first week(or so) together. Just remember, those upper-classmen arn't as mean as they seem. It is kinda scarry cause some of the guys are like huge and have mustaches! But just calm down, take a deep breath. If you are having trouble with Upper-classmen, tell your friends, i am sure they are having the same problems.

IT WILL GET BETTER TRUST ME!! :)

Q: I'm 13 and I can put a tampon in just fine. But I was thinking to myself if fingering feels like pleasuring, why doesn't a tampon feel pleasuring? I mean your still sticking something up there it's just a different material or whatever. I have never fingered myself before though. THe reason for that I used a tampon but not fingered myself is because I have to use a tampon for different sports I do. But I don't have to finger myself, and I'm afraid i'll break my hyem [sp?] if I do. So my two questions are, why does fingering feel good but not putting tampons in, and do you think since I have used tampons before and my hyem didn't break, fingering won't break it?
one, a tampon doesn't break your hymen(sp?) becuase it is too smal there is a small hole in it(hymen) and it allows small objects to fit in but not big ones.
two, fingering feels good because you are moving it in and out quickly, and i don't think anybodys done that with a tampon before.
three, fingering won't break it because it's too small.

Q: I am probably getting a dog if this week with her works out (I have another dog already and we have to see if they get along well... so far they are fine together.) She looks very German Shepherd but she's small. She's very quiet and sweet. I can't think of a good name for her though. Here is her picture:

http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/3264/puppyto2.jpg

My mom likes the name Maggie for her but I'm not sure it really suits her. Any ideas?
I think maggie is a good name. But i also think Sara(h) would work too. Or possibly Maese(may-sea).

Q: ok naturally i have dark brown hair but right now its dyed black my hair is really short and i want to dye it bleach blond without it turning orange how can i do this and don't say go to a salon or whatever cause i'm not going to pay money for someone to put hair dye in my hair and can you recommend brands of dye
o.k Bleach Blonde actually means BLEACH blonde. Your hair gets soaked in bleach. And it turns to the color Bleach Blonde. It actually hurts quite a lot from what i've heard. You can't really do the BLeach blonde look at home. But you can go with a different blonde shade at home. If you want a true Platnium/Bleach Blonde hair color you're gonna have to go to a hair salon.

Q: I have around 15, yes THAT many, small warts on my right arm and one on my left. I tried freezing them off and all it did was leave circular scars on my arms. What else could I do, besides go to the doctor? and how could I get rid of my scars? They're hideous.
umm. You're gonna have to go to a doctor to get that many removed. You see when you get a wart you have a "wart" virus in your system and the longer you wait to get them removed the more you'll get. Now i had like 3 small warts on my hand and one biger one on the bottom of my foot. I went to the doctor and got the one on my foot removed and the others just went away.

Q: I dont want to do anything extreme, but i havent been exercising that much over the summer and the track tryouts are in three days, i sort of procrastinated, is there any way i can condition myself in three days?
run.
alot

Q: 14/f.
my face hasn't been that red really during the summer, but now that school has started im always soo red like mainly my cheeks, chin, in between my eyebrows and my head. its not red because im nervous or anything, its like the lighting in the school, or the fact that i get up early and am so tired or something im not sure. i put on more and more makeup to cover it but it doesnt do anyhthing, and then just ends up making my skin really dry and powdery, or liquidy looking. please dont tell me to just not wear cover up, i really have to! haha. but if anyone has any ideas how to make my face not so red please let me know! makeup, stuff at the store, i dont even know but just whatever! thanks a bunch!
You might be getting like acne that doesn't show. It just makes you face red. It's really strange. The best thing i can tell you get alot of sleep wash your face more with soft soap and apply lotion after words.

Q: My natural hair colour is black and I was wondering, that if I dyed my hair to any lighter colour like blond or even brown, can I look younger or less older?

I'm thinking that maybe my black hair makes me look older, and not in a good way?
If you have black hair naturaly you probly have darker skin i am guessing. If you dye your hair Blonde/light brown your face MIGHT look washed out look washed out.

Just a warning if you do:
YOU MIGHT HAVE TO STRIP YOUR HAIR COLOR OUT THOUGH. AND I THINK IT CAN BE A LITTLE BIT PRICEY TO DO. jUST GO TO THE SALON AND ASK A STYLIST THE PROS AND CONS.

Q: hi, 15/m. i live in the uk. ii understand the different parties here, but what are the parties in the states? and what do they believe, like, what do they want to do exacly? ive heard of the republicans, and the democrats. are there any more? and how does the system work? thanks:)
Well there are:

Republican Party-stand for the,belive in helping the richer people
Democrats-stand for the, belivie in helping the not so well off people(aka poor)
Independents-go either way
Libertarian Party-liberating certian things
Green Party-environment
Constitution Party-upholing the constitution


The symbol for Repulican is an Elephant(i don't know why) and the symbol for Democrat is a Donkey(i don't why)

This is going to be really long. But i will try to explain it the best i can:

The executive branch is headed by a president and is independent of the legislature. Legislative power is vested in the two chambers of Congress, the Senate and the House of Representatives. Judicial power is exercised by the judicial branch (or judiciary), comprised of the Supreme Court and lower federal courts. The judiciary's function is to interpret the United States Constitution as well as the federal laws and regulations. This includes resolving disputes between the executive and legislative branches. The federal government of the United States was established by the Constitution. American politics has been dominated by two major parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, ever since the American Civil War, though other minor parties of lesser political significance have also always existed.

Major differences between the political system of the United States and that of most other developed democracies are the power of the Senate as the upper house of the legislature, the wide scope of power of the Supreme Court, the separation of powers between the legislature and the executive government, and the dominance of the two main parties - the United States being the only developed democracy without a major third party.

Unlike in some countries, American political parties are very loosely organized. The two major parties, in particular, have no formal organization at the national level that controls membership, activities, or policy positions, though some state affiliates do. Thus, for an American to say that he or she is a member of the Democratic or Republican party, is quite different from a Briton's stating that he or she is a member of the Labour party. In the United States, one can often become a "member" of a party, merely by stating that fact. In some U.S. states, a voter can register as a member of one or another party and/or vote in the primary election for one or another party, but such participation does not restrict one's choices in any way; nor does it give a person any particular rights or obligations with respect to the party, other than possibly allowing that person to vote in that party's primary elections (elections that determine who the candidate of the party will be). A person may choose to attend meetings of one local party committee one day and another party committee the next day. The sole factor that brings one "closer to the action" is the quantity and quality of participation in party activities and the ability to persuade others in attendance to give one responsibility.

Q: hi, can someone tell me how the american schooling system works? here in England, theres are a couple different variations, but the city i live in, and surrounding areas, the system goes like this:
5 years old-start year 1 of primary school
11 years old-year 6. last year of primary school
12 years old-start year 7 of secondary school
16 years old- year 11. last year of secondary school.
after that you can go in to full, or part time work while going to college, which is optional, and free. college is usually for about 2+ years and you earn A levels here, aswell as other like a2, As etc.
then you can choose to go to university, for 2-5+ years. you pay for this, and do one subject. if you stay for 5+ years, i thing you get a PHD and become a doctor.
i think some parts of london have high schools and that, but was just wandering what the American schooling system is. thanks.
*ages depend on what month you are born in for example some people are 13 when they enter Junior High and sometimes people are 4 when they go to preschool. Where i live you have to turn 6 years of age before August in order to go to kindergarten that year. Other wise you wait until the next year.*

5 or 6 years old you go to preschool

6-7 years old you go to kindergarten

7-about 12 years old you go through 1st-6th grade

12-14 years old you go to Jounior High(7th-8th grade *sometimes 6th grade*)

14-18 years old you go to High School(9th-12th grade)

then you can go to college witch is the same as yours.


Q: What are some tips to make using my curling iron quicker?


Thankyouuu!

Ohh, and by the way..
my hair isn't naturaly straight..
& I just cut a lot off..
so right now.. it's only aobout 5 or 6 inches past my shoulders when curly..

So you straighten your hair then curl it? Even though your hair is curly?

I guess you can let the Iron get really hot then curl your hair. But there really isn't anyway that i can think of to make it go faster.

Unless you just left your hair curly in the first place and didn't straighten it.
