Hey. Well, I'm thirteen, and I've moved back in with my mom 4 years ago [my parent's got divorced, long story]. Just about half a year ago, my mom and I started to really get on eachother's last nerves. It seems like she never approves of anything I do, like wearing 'dark' eyeliner or painting my nails black. I can't even talk to her anymore becuase it's like she's insane or something. She doesn't listen to me, and yells from the conversation's start to finish. She won't even let me like make a deal with her, like I'll wear lighter eyeliner, but the nails stay black. All she does is comment on how I'm too skinny, or 'goth' or how my behavior changes when I'm with different friends, like they influence how I behave, which is NOT true. She also seems to think I'm like, so slutty, when compared to half the girls in my school, I'm like a saint. And, she thinks that I'm like, a druggie and when I go uptown with my friends from my dad's neighborhood, I'm up to no good.. when I'm not doing ANYTHING wrong. I've never smoked or drank, and I wouldn't, I would never be able to manage getting away with it. The point is, I can't stand my mom, and I can't even talk to her and tell her what's bothering me, or she has a fit over absolutely nothing... I'm not exagerating, either. Please help, I don't want to stress over this, and hate my own mother, but I really can't take her anymore.
And sorry that this is so long, but I REALLYY need some help with this. (link)

Your Mom may also be going through rough times. Surprise her and do something nice for her. Make her feel appreciated. It could be something as easy as bringing her a cup of tea or coffee, doing the dishes.
She sounds like she worries quite a bit about you and wants the best for you.
Before you get into any serious conversations with your Mom, talk about subjects that you both agree with.
13 is also not an easy age but you sure can learn a lot if you are willing to open up your mind a little.
Hope it works out for you.

Does anyone know any users on DeviantArt that have accounts for stock images?...i'm specifically looking for human figures, portraits, model poses, etc. It's for a fashion design project.
I've found a bunch of pictures, but I need an account or accounts that's (are) for stock imagery so I can go back to it (them) and check more images out.
Thanks loads in advance.
Kay.
Oh ye - and google's not helpful. I tried searching for 'model poses', and I got porn links .. and where I live, if i dare access these sites, i'd be in deeeeep trouble. Other stock imagery sites are also appreciated! (link)

You probably could find what you need at a library especially if you live in a bigger city. Most of them have numerous books on Art and you could photocopy what you need. You could even call them to see if they have what you are looking for, just to save yourself a trip.

Okay so here's the situation. In 6th grade I really liked this guy named Jamie. But half way through the year he moved to hong kong. but while he was there, we talked on AIM and he told me he liked me and i told him that i liked him too. he came back for 4th quarter that year, but i was going out with this other guy. so then he went back to hong kong, but last summer he came back and called me and wanted to play tennis with me. after we played tennis, he invited me to a movie. we didn't hold hands or anything, and he never said he liked me again. but over spring break last year i met this guy robert. he lives in pennsylvania, and we talked a little bit, and when we talked online later he said that he liked me. i just talked to him tonight online, and he was really happy to hear from me, and we got to talking. we figured out that we're both going to be at that same hotel at the same time next spring break! also, jamie is coming back this summer. who should i pursue? i really like them both, but i don't know who it makes more sense to go out with. thanks! (link)

Since you will see Jamie first, why not have fun with him and see how the summer goes ? There are no rules that say you can't also be friends with Robert. You don't have to choose one over the other. It's great to look forward to the next spring break when you will see Robert again but for now just look to the summer.

well this is a very complicated situation but here it goes. i have a best friend. i like him. he doesnt know that i do. i used to like him but that was a totally different situation and anyways i thought he liked me back but it turned out that he didnt. but then i told him i didnt like him anymore and after like a week of not liking him i liked him again. but now like a month later i think i might stop liking him and i dont really want to. but lately he has been acting rather strange. it seemed like he was being too clingy and it was really annoying me. i think someone may of told him not to cling on to me so much or maybe that he was annoying me and now he still always wants to hang out with me and all but whenever we talk it seems more awkward. i dont know what to do. does he like me? i dont know if i like him anymore. i dont know what to believe anymore. thanx in advance

If you are unsure of your feelings towards your friend, then don't say anything for now. Let a few days go by and see where that takes you. Don't be in such a rush to know whether he likes you or not. If he does, it will be obvious by the way he talks to you or does something nice for you. Do not listen to rumours. They are about the most useless things in life and can often be very hurtful.
Hope my advice helps a little.

There are many raised dots in my underarms.They look a little like braille.I am 14/f.I live in a sub-tropical country.Please could some one tell me what they are,what causes them,if they are caused by something much worse,are they just prickly heat rashes, what I can do about them? (link)
|
No one can or should diagnose online.
You may be right and it could be only a heat rash. Did you shave your underarms lately ? A dull blade could certainly cause a rash. If it doesn't go away in a few days, your best bet is to ask an adult (your Mom or a doctor).

I liked this guy and he said that he loved me and he still says that. I have a bf that I still love that is going to move at the end of hte summer. Well me and this guy that I like (not my bf) decided to wait until next year to go out. That way I don't have to break up with my bf before I have to. Cause me and my bf have to break up before he moves. parents rules. but now this guy that I like has a new gf. At first i didn't really care to much about it cause I knew that he still loved me. but now he told me (not meaning to hurt my feelings) that he's falling in love with his new gf like he DID with me. Well he says that he still loves me and that its never going to change. But I'm worried cause what if he's still going out with her when me and my bf break up and then I find someone that I don't want to give up just like that? I really like this guy but I don't want to break up with my bf right now and I don't want to make him feek like he would have to just give up on this girl that he really cares about for me. Plz help. What should I do? (link)

In life you will find that timing has a lot to do with who you are with. Planning to be with someone too far ahead usually does not work out, just like you are now finding out. This boy that you would eventually like to be with now has found a gf. Who knows what will be happening at the end of the summer. For now, concentrate on what you have and enjoy the moment.

I want my bf to touch my boobs but I don't want it to go any farther than that. What should i do? (link)
| |
Make sure your bf knows where you stand and that "touching your boobs" is not an invitation for anything else.

If you've seen the movie, that's how my life is right now, except I didn't have sex with my bestfriend, I just slept in the same bed as him. He won't talk to me now, it's been about 6 days. He used to call everyday, constantly come over, etc. What's wrong? I'm so upset. Should I leave him alone? (link)
|
Give him his space for now. If he hasn't called in a week or 2, give him a shout and ask him over to watch a game or a movie.
It's not unusual for people to want their space every so often.
You mention "just slept in the same bed" as if that is nothing but maybe for him it was a bigger deal. For now he may just need to think about where this could be heading.

I loved two guys at the same time. One was my bf and one was a close friend. My bf is treating my like crap and everyone is saying that he is going to break up with me soon. Then my best friends who was waiting on me found another girl. I'm happy for him don't get me wrong and i'll never tell him this cause I don't want for him to feel bad but I was going to dump my bf for him tomorrow and now I'm so heart broken that I don't know what to do. Now I don't even want to break up with my bf cause I still love him even though he doesn't exactly treat me right. Byt that, just so we're clear is, we don't go anywhere ever, he doesn't call me, and he doesn't want me around when is friends are around. What should I do? (link)
|
You need to clear your head.
No woman should be treated like crap so do yourself a favour and tell bf that you need to reassess your life and take a break from him. You need to be in the driver's seat for a change. I bet you can even survive being without a boyfriend for a little while.
You will also survive this heartbreak. I have the feeling you are a lot stronger than you give yourself credit for.

ok i have a problem. my boyfriend and i have been having sex for about a month now and i still havent been able to have an orgasm yet. hes getting frustrated and thinks its his fault but i know thats not the case. n e suggestions on helping me to have one?
~thanks (link)
|
Do not rush through sex. It may be that what is missing for you is relaxation and much more foreplay. (and I mean longer than 30 seconds!!)

okay so theres this guy i like and he likes me back. hes in highschool right now, and i will be next year. but, hes being all annoying and he wont start up anything with me until next year, when i join him in highschool. i really like this boy, but ive started hanging out with another boy that i like as well and he also likes me. im not sure if i should start something up withhh boy 2 and be all like disloyal to boy 1 or whattt. help please!
mucho loves ;] (link)
|
There was never a true commitment with boy #1. Therefore, no disloyalty in your part.
Don't make the mistake of looking too far ahead. Make friends with boy #2 and enjoy yourself. One day there will be boy #3 and #4 and #5 so try to enjoy a friendship before getting too serious.

I'm 15, I've been getting colds very frequently. Before spring break, (wich was 4 weeks long) I seemed to be getting them every other weekend. My weekend would go normal, and then on Sunday I would start to get runny nose, sore throat, fever etc. etc.. and then I end up being absent from school on Monday.
Well I just got back from break (no sickness at all the whole time), and this past weekend was my first weekend back, and i'm sick again. I'm guessing its either from stress of going back to school and getting my homework done Sunday night, or not lack of sleep. (wich I get up early on both Saturday and Sunday for church)
Can someone clear this up for me, so I know exactly what I need to be doing diffrent to avoid getting so sick every week ? (link)
|
Here are a few simple tips :
1. After being sick, always change your toothbrush.
2. Try eating fruits and vegetables every day.
3. Wash your hands often during the day, especially after bathrooms breaks.
4. Your pharmacist could suggest an "off the shelf" vitamin pill.
5. Get enough sleep.
6. Whenever you feel "stressed out", go for a fast 20-30 minute walk.
Give these a try and hopefully you will see a change.

my parents are the over protecting parents we arent as close as we used to be. we never really had connection so it would be weird to start talking to them telling them how i feel, and i dont think they would take it seriously since we never had these kinds of talks before.
so i recently just started highschool and i meet alot of cool new people and new friends so since im getting older i want to go out with my new and old friends. i also have a boyfriend which my parents dontknow about because they dont let me have any. so my mom says that i want to go out alot and she tells me that she wont let me go out if i dont do this or that. like last night it was 11 and i wasnt sleeping yet and she got mad and told me i wasnt going out anymore.she does this everytime and it gets me mad. how do i stop this? i got really mad. so now i cant go out. everytime i want to go out she never lets me anymore i dont know why she always says no! and i only go out once a week which is on saturdays i think i atleast deserve 1 day out of the week to hang out. im not a bad girl i dont do drugs or cut class or anything. im just a normal dadys girl who does eveything shes told. everytime my boyfriend wants to hang out i cant because my parents dont let me go out lately everytime i ask they say no. and my boyfriend is really tired. he says that he misses me and wants to see me, we text everyday and we talk but he says thats not enough and that he wants to see me. we dont go to the ssame school so what do i do? should i sneek out or lie so they can let me out? please dont tell me to talk to them becase that would be really awkward. thanks!

You need to get interested in some other activity that you know your parents would approve. For example : have you ever thought of volunteering 1 hour after school. It could be working at an animal shelter or in a hospital or even at school. Give that a try and see how your parents react ?
To volunteer, all you need to ask is a teacher or your guidance counselor. They will make a contact for you or at least let you know what to do.

(1) I dont understand my sister.I buy beautiful jewelry which sells for 99 cents for each piece of jewelry but they look very expensive.Friends, Strangers, coworkers, etc all think I brought my jewelry in Lord & Taylors, Bloomingdales, Nordstrums, etc. However, my sister will not buy this jewelry. If I told my sister I brought the jewelry in Nordstrums, Lord & Taylors she would love it, however due to the fact that I told her where I brought it she po poos it, saying it is junk. (2) ALSO another thing I wanted to ask you during the course of the conversation below my Mom told my sister why are you saying those things to her - she likes the jewelry. SO ANOTHER QUESTION I AM ASKING YOU IS MY MOTHER KNOCKING THE JEWELRY. (HERE IS THE STORY: I buy jewelry at the 99 cent store and the jewelry I buy looks like I could have brought them at Lord & Taylors, Bloomingdales, Nordstrums - I get a lot of compliments on my jewelry. However, my sister is such a snob so she will not buy anything UNLESS you pay a lot. However, Tonight I was wearing a fun ring and she commented on the ring and asked if I brought it at the 99 cent store. I told her no that this was just a fun ring. However, the jewelry I buy at the 99 cent store does not look 99 cent, but she laughed, but my Mom told her that last night when Anna was here for the first night of Passover, Anna loved the necklace that I (meaning me) wore. I called my sister a snob, and she got mad, and said; dont ever call me that I still wont buy anything at a ninety cent store;. My brother-in-law told my sister that she should not say things like that to me. Any way later on I showed her a necklace and she said it was pretty and as my sister was getting ready to go home my mother said to her; why are you saying these hurtful things to her she likes the jewelry.) (link)

At this point in your life you are learning that very often "expensive" does not necessarily mean stylish and good taste. This is something your sister has yet to learn.
Keep finding your treasures. Who knows ? You may be a future jewelry designer.

Your best bet would be to go to your doctor and ask all the questions you are wondering about. A doctor will respect your privacy, answer your questions and remove the worries you have.
