okay so strange thing has happened to me. ive met this new guy and he is funny and cute. but the downside is hes not a good boyfriend at all and gets bored after a few months of dating. hes also very conceited. the thing is im not sure i want to be with this guy or even if i like him but something keeps making me want to hang out with him. He is the type of guy you can be best friends with and have lots of fun with, and thats kinda what i wanna do. except i also want to make him realize hes not all that. So he said hes into mysterious girls. that he doesnt like simple girls. and i have always wanted to do things differently. so my question is what is the most random, craziest thing any of u have done that was fun and that i could do with him....as friends of course. and how can one be...mysterious??? (link)
Hahaha ohhh goodness. I could give you a ton of crazy, wacky, somewhat illegal stunts, but uhm I don't know if thats the best thing... Do you really want to change who you are and have to constantly be exciting and crazy? Don't you think that would be kind of exhausting?? But I mean its your call
so here's some things you could try...

• Setting off fireworks in the neighborhood curly slide
• Sneaking out to rival schools and drawing on their sidewalks with chalk (you could do this to other friend's driveways during the summer)
• Midnight sledding
• Going to a restraunt with a whoopee cushion (Yeah, yeah I know, its so immature but its hilarious to watch your waiter's face)
• Play drinking games with soda (Circle of Death is my favorite)
• Plan a float trip on a nearby river (canoeing or floating on intertubes. You can most likely find a place to rent at but you'll need to find a ride to pick you up at your end point. You can find organizations to do both) its great if you get a bunch of people
• Waterwar (ambush your other friends)
• Movie hopping

Hope I helped!!


14/f
So I just got my period today (not for like the first time in my life, I've had it since last September) and I know how to deal with it and all, but what I don't know is how do I go swimming with my period? My friends keep inviting me to the pool or the beach and I really want to go but I'm afraid something bad will happen...I've never worn a tampon in my life, by the way, and I don't know how to...I'm afraid I'd do it wrong or something. Also, I've never faced this problem because the only times I've had my period, it was like the winter, and now it's the summer... So...any advice please? thanks! (link)
My first time putting in a tampon I was super scared. But I got Tampax Pearl small and it was perfect because the plastic makes it super easy to slide in and it wasnt uncomfortable at all. (Plus, you can leave them in for eight hours!) I'd try that. My life is SOOO much easier now that I use tampons, no stress or anything. Trust me, you gotta do it sometime and you shouldnt let you period or thus fear stop you from living your life. Using a tampon is not hard at all, no worries, just go for it.


Okay, well I wasn't really sure where to put this but uh here goes. So I'm 13/F and he was 14/M. He is an awesome friend but he's always been a perv. Anyway, he took it too far this time and I flipped out. We were walking in a group and some other guys that we were with were making fun of him about how he "can't get a girl" and he says "I can get any girl I want!" so he grabs me, pins me against a wall, and sticks his hand down my pants. I freaked and kicked him in the balls... He looked like he was in severe pain. I almost felt bad but not really cuz what did he expect? But now he's super pissed at me. I don't think he has a right! Does anyone else think I was out of line? (link)
Haha, nice one. I would have done the same thing. See, some guys (not all) don't know what it feels like to be violated like that. They don't understand the way it makes girls feel and react. So even though he probably knows he was wrong he probably doesn't see why you it made you as angry as it did. Girls have it tough these days, what with the whole double standard of morality and all that. Some boys just don't get it. They were raised by society to embrace and be proud of their manhood and they just expect girls to feel the same. Well thats not how it works and I'm not saying he has any excuse whatsoever for what he did because his actions were completely unnacceptable and I think you had every right to defend yourslf like you did. I am only telling you that some boys don't and never will undestand what it feels like to be man handled or violated and they probably won't be able to sympathize. Yeah it sucks but I'm sure your delicious little kick will make this boy think twice before he screws with you again. Hahah, right on, I'm totally on your side.


i finally got the tampon in but its a little uncomfortable...it looks like its in pretty good though. can i use something like the empty applicator to pushit up a little bit more? or is that just asking for trouble? i don't want to take it out and try with a new one cause taking out a dry tampon hurts, i've experienced it. (link)
Its gonna feel a little different, youre just not used to it. But if its really bugging you, soak in the tub for a bit.


I always seem to go for the underdog in situations. The sort of self-conscious, not very attractive, nerdy funny sort of guys. I know there shouldn't be anything wrong with this, but I feel embarrassed in front of my friends. They all seem to think that I just lack self-esteem and go for people "not in my league"; people they wouldn't even glance at. This has stopped me from entering relationships or sexual relationships. I know I shouldn't care, it's not my friends' lives, it's mine, but still I worry they may be right. That I pick people based on feeling better about myself, or because i am incapable of being vulnerable, or something. It's bad because I do like to have the upper hand, so to speak.
I don't know how to feel about this. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated! (link)
You don't deserve any of those guys if youre referring to them as "out of your league" or you having the "upper hand". That's crap. If you can't treat them as equals or like them enough to bring them around your friends then they deserve so much better than you.


how does someone get a body like this? stomach more specifically..


http://c2.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/86/l_5c87304637ce4b0dad822f7db7e24ef9.jpg


its soo flat.. no band of fat around it you know.

how do you get this?? (link)
Yeah I have a stomach like that and its called my soccer workouts suck. You get what you work for. Try joining a sport?


i feel completely lost and hurt and i really dont know why i feel so bad. to start with im 16 yrs old. i really like this guy who is 17 lets call him alex. we have been friends for over 2months now and basically since day 1 we have been attracted to eachother. we have kissed etc and a few weeks ago he told me he really liked me. and i told him i really liked him too =]
any way the past few days he has been really moody with me. i have tried to speak to him about it but he either ignores me or says hes in a mood so doesnt want to talk.
his friends all say he likes me, and he just goes through phases where hes in a mood with people. i dont believe this though and i dont think he likes me. if you like someone you dont ignore them do you ?

do you think some guys are just like this ? also what should i do, i dont want to keep trying to talk to him if he is just going to ignore me .. (link)
Hey, don't sweat honey, boys PMS too.


14/f & 14/m (he'll be 15 in aug.)

so im going to try to keep this short and sweet.
my boyfriend and i try to see each other weekly but when we cant we txt. But lately he hasn't been txtin very much, towards me only. When this first happened i was so scared we were going to break up again, thenn i saw him later on that day and he showed absolutley no signs of breaking up, only more to love. He was very sweet wen we were togeether, so i thought he would keep txtin: still nothing. So...why doesn't he want to txt with me anymore? (link)
Why don't you try calling him? TALKING (not texting) on the phone is much more fun. ; ].


Michael Jackson died today and he was only 50 years old. It really took me by surprise, but it wasn't as if I didn't expect it sometime fairly soon. There have been rumors flying around for some time now about his health problems. As a matter of fact, when Michael was on trial, one day he was late because of health problems. Obviously, the judge didn't feel that Michael's health was all that important because he threatened to have Michael Jackson jailed unless he made an appearance in the courtroom. Michael showed up in his pajamas. Does anyone else remember that?

People made it out to seem as if he was faking. Some people even made it seem like he was crazy and would do ANYTHING as he was suddenly "extremely unpredictable" and all. I guess he wasn't kidding or faking about having health problems, huh?

I'm going to miss Michael Jackson. He was a man who set out to hurt no one, but the world seemed hell-bent upon hurting him. Michael Jackson was seriously the King of Pop in so many ways. Maybe he's better off wherever he is since we trashed his good name without even giving him a chance to speak. I choose to believe that he is now seated up in Heaven, seeing God for the first time.

Does anyone feel like me about Michael Jackson or am I alone in this? When I was growing up Michael Jackson was such a big role model. Sure, he was a little weird but he seemed to care and love. I'm really hurt that Michael Jackson is dead :( almost like a large portion of my childhood has been abandoned. (link)
I wasn't exactly a fan... He molested children and got away with it because of his "musical contribution". But I would never be happy over anyones death.


hey i have a cold sore on the corner of my mouth and it really hurts ive been putting campho phenique on it but its not really going away but i've only been putting it on for one day..i wanna get rid of it..i hate it! (link)
Swish salt water in your mouth (but don't swallow!) and it will clear it up.


my birthday is coming up soon. i can't decide what i want. there are two things that i'm thinking about asking for. i either want this coach purse or an ipod touch. i already have 2 coach purses. the last time i got one though was a little after christmas. so i kind of want a new one. the coach purse i want is soooo adorable, its one of the new poppy ones.. all of those are so cute, actually. i really love coach, its like my favorite thing. but if i'm good and stuff, when my mom goes to buy herself a new purse, she will buy me one too.. so that's my reason why i'd rather have an ipod touch.

the only thing is, i'm not that obsessed with going on the computer. i mean i go on it, like once a day, but i don't know. what do you think is better?

oh.. & if you don't like, like coach purses, replace it with something else you really like..


& if you have ipod touch please tell me anything and everytyhing you possibly can about it!!! (link)
Hahaha, guess what? I am responding to your question on my iPod touch right this second. I LOVE my iPod touch. I can go on the Internet, download tons of songs, movies and games, check my email, and even get on AIM. Definitely get an iPod touch!


What are some sexy things to say to your boyfriend?

Nothing cheesy, I want some really sexy, but not terribly slutty things I can say to my boyfriend so he knows I am attracted to him.

Thank you! (link)
My personal favorite is "burr its so cold... come warm me up? ;)"


hey what are some songs with a male and female singer? like singing at the same time. alternativish. kinda like "Falling Slowly" by Glan hansard or "Set the Fire to the Third Bar" by snow patrol? i think they are really pretty
thanks! (link)
Its a Christian song but its soooooo beautiful. Its called "Prince of Peace" and its great!


15/f
this is a VERY long story, but im gonna try to lay this out as short as possible and please, im desperate here, you have NO clue what i've been through these past few months, and i need all the help i can get..

last year i met a REALLY sensative guy. he was 16, about to be 17, and i was 14.. he was soooo shy, hes VERY insecure. when we first started dating, all he said to me was how i saved him and pulled him out of his misery because he has had no luck with relationships and was treated like shit by girls his whole life. hes not even that cute and popular, and i have a waaay higher social status in my grade/ school then he does in his grade.. but ive been known to have wierd taste and i can look beyond looks and things like that very easily. i think when we first started dating him i was just excited over the fact that he had a car and he was a junior and i was only a freshmen.. but i actually did end up falling in love with him. and he was COMPLETELY in love with me. we lost our virginities to eachother and ill tell you, im smart, and not at all a bit naiive.. i knew this kid loved me. & we did NOT have a sex based relationship whatsoever.. we became eachothers best friends. both of us lost all of our other friends because we were only with eachother 24-7. he called my mom 'mom' and i did the same with his mom.. we were incredibly close.. and sense he was older, i felt so comftorbal and secure with him, and i went to him with all my problems, and he would help me.. ive been suffering from depression for years and me and my mother never had a good relationship, and my father left me, and i was molested as a baby.. but when i was with him, he made me feel so comftorbal. we told eachother EVERYTHING. and i was postive he was there to stay. he promised me forever every single day. we dated for a year. i messed it up, biggest mistake of my entire life.. he started getting very annoying and up my ass. you know when youre in a bad mood and you just want to be left alone? well he would never leave me alone. he'd be like 'its okay babe i love you' bla bla. all mushy, when i just want to be mad!. i tried talking to him about this many times and all he could say was im sorry i just love you soooo much i cant help it.. all my friends called him whipped cream and everything.. it was BAD. but anyways, one night i was out with my friends the day before a cheer competition, and my ex was there.. and somewhere along the lines, we kissed.. my boyfriends friend was there and told him that if i didnt tell him, he was going to.. i knew he wasnt going to break up with me or anything.. so i told him.. but the thing is.. i think i was looking for a fight with him because our relationship was so boring. when i told him, it pissed me off how he was crying instead of being mad, yelling at me. so i started saying things to make him mad.. i said TERRIBLE things. like i was gonna keep cheating on him because he basically lets me, and how i know i take advantage of him because he trusts me so much but i shouldnt.. and he was like well maybe i have to break up with you then.. and he was like i really dont want to. and i was like fine just do it idont care! yelling at him and stuff.. and then he did. i was thinking we would get back together in a couple weeks.. so after we broke up, we still talked because we obv. still loved eachother and everything. we acted like we were going out, and we even 'hooked up' a few times.. but when he asked me back out, i kept saying no, i wasnt ready.. because the relationship was SOOO akward after we broke up.. he was acting so different. and i knew why. it was because i broke his heart. and i did, bad. so one day after we hooked up, my friend told me that her brother saw my 'boyfriend, x-boyfriend, whatever u wanna call him' at a store.. and he was saying how he was done with me and he was trying to get with this new girl 'leesh'.. i was FURIOUS. i called him up screaming at him asking for all my stuff back and it was over for good and everything. but really, i wanted an appology from him, not my stuff back. btw, i was very remorsful for cheating on him and saying what i said to him, i mustve appologized a million times.. but he didnt say anything, he justgave me all my stuff back and acted like it was nothing.. and then i kept trying to get him back, but he kept rejecting me. i was litterally down on my knees for this kid. until one day i found out he had a girlfriend. not just some girl.. the girl who dates ALL the boys that i date after me.. but thats a whole nother story.. anyways, i was devistated. i couldnt eat, i couldnt talk, i couldnt sleep, i couldnt go to school,, nothing. all i did was cry and cry and cry and cry. i tried talking to him seeing if we could be friends and stuff, but he hates me now. if i send him one text, he shuts his phone off. he goes all different ways in the halls so i dont have to see him in school, he wont even look my way. he saw me practically drown in my own tears and he didnt even care. i wrote him long long letters, i tried everything i could just to be able to talk to him when i need to, so i wouldnt be so hurt about the situation.. now, i have two weeks left of school and im failing 4 classes.. and im an honors student. i DONT fail. its not me. and im grounded because of it, so i cant even go out and try to forget it. its been sense thhe end of february... and still,all i can think about is killing myself.. people say they are heart broken.. but this gives heart broken a new definition. there is litterally a hole in my chest. and i keep getting maaaassive anxiety attacks in class, and i do go to counceling wich is sort of helpful but we mostly talk about my parents.. three days ago, she broke up with him. and he was very upset from what i heard.. he hasnt tried talking to me or anything but i dont know what to do, i want to talk to him but he'll just ignore me.. i love this kid and care about him with my life. today i thought i was going to DIE. it was the last day of school for the seniors. the last time ill EVER see him again. the last time ill ever get to look for him i the halls so i can walk by him.. that was the only time i ever got to see him, and today was my last day. and when i walked by him for the very last time of my life today, he didnt even look at me. it was so painful. he couldnt even have the heart to say bye to me considering im his first love and helll never see me again. i havent been able to stop crying sense i last saw him. i dont even know what to do with my life any more. someone PLEEEEEASE tell me what to do to get him back. ANNYTHING. I AM DESPERATE FOR HELP. we had such a good relationship till i cheated and we Never ever had one fight. but you dont even understand. this kid wouldnt even look at any other girls, deleted all the girls in his phone book, couldnt go an hour without texting me just saying he loved me, couldnt go a day withouth seeing me, brought me flowers randomly, did EVERYTHING for me. how can you love someone so much and go through everything we've been through together, and then just completely shut them out of your life? (link)
Aw I'm sorry you screwed up. There will be other boys, don't do the same thing next time. And apologize to him, but don't try anything else. Just tell him your sorry and how awesome he is and how wrong you were. Goodluck.


I've been hanging out with this guy. Do guys think it's wrong for girls to make a move.. like a kiss.. first? If I know he likes me. (link)
Of course its okay. Some guys even find it hot. Go for it.


Smell is important in my book. But what scent do you guys love a girl to wear.. vanilla? fruity? perfumy? anything else? Lots of different responses would be great. (link)
It is actually scientifically proven that vanilla and coconut are pleasing to males. But I've also heard that cucumber is nice.


I'm 13(m) and I might be going over to my crushes house this weekend and I want to find out if she likes me the way I like her. To do that without asking her anything, dont give me don't do it, it's wrong, I want to read her diary to see if she talks about me or not, but I need to know where some places are that she might keep her diary. What I'm trying to ask is, what are some places girls hide or put their diaries and if theres a key to it where are some places girls hide or put that key? (link)
Haha wowwww that is so messed up dude! But check thsese places:

• Under bed / Under pillow
• In sock/underwear drawer
• Desk drawers
• Book case (behind the stacked books)
• For the key: if there is one, check in a jewelry box or pillow case

I'm going to give you a warning, I don't write in a diary (too much work) so just letting you know...

Also, BE CAREFUL I don't think this is a good idea. If she sees you looking through her room or reading it, you will look like a SEVERE creeper and I would bet a million dollars that your chance with her (if you had one) it will be gone. Completely. No questions asked. No exceptions.



why's it that when girls cry over a guy he comes back to them? like shouldn't he not because they're showing their weak? idk im still in love with my ex and we broke up like a month and a half ago =/ (link)
Crying doesn't mean you're weak. Not that it matters, if a boy leaves a girl for a good reason, I dont think crying will be enough persuasion to come back.


Hey guys. i was wondering i what i should wear to a party if im a skater. i was thinking about wearing a bright colored skate brand shirt, but i dont know if i should or not. Also everyone has been saying theyre gonna be playing truth or dare at the party. How can i be prepared? If you think i should wear a collered shirt tell me. The party is TONIGHT AT 5:30 so i need answers fast!

Thanks!
Ashkon (link)
Why dont you wear the skater tshirt underneath a collared shirt and if it turns out that everyone else is not dressed as formal as collared shirts, you can take it off and just "I got hot" if anyone notices. Have fun! =]


hey okay im just wondering what peoples opinions on this are; im 14 and my mom tells me to tell her when i have sex but she says that i have to wait till im 17. what if i were to have sex at 15 of something like before 17, should i tell her and she would get mad or should i not tell her and keep it from her? and like if i didnt tell her how would i get birth control? (link)
Simple solution: Don't have sex that early.
