Alright, I'm 17/m and I shaved my chest and stomach (left the happy trail, as girls call it, there).
The problem is I have red bumps now because I've irritated my skin. The bumps have been there for over a month.
I'm sure they'd go away if I stopped shaving, but I'm looking for an alternative. (link)

Use an electric shaver... it won't get as close as a blade, but hey, at least you won't look like chicken skin.

why do they make cars that go like 300 miles per hour if the speed limit's like 75 miles per hour

Because even rich people need something to spend their money on.

Ah I once again am having guy troubles, it always seems to happen again over and over. But this time I seem to like a really cute guy, but he is really popular. I don't know if I should fight or if I should just let him come to me... or if I should just stop liking him...HELP ME PLEASE (link)

What have you got to lose... go up to him! and stop wasting time pining over him.

Try baby powder, or mattifying face primer.

Dear msListenLady,
I'm male, 25. I've been going through a very stressful time with my job and family recently - I got laid off despite excellent qualifications, because they have outsourced to Canada, and was quite severely depressed. I am introspective, and don't have many friends, but value the ones I do very deeply. Anyway, I rather stupidly decided that I would be jealous of my friends' families, and their lives generally, being so much better than my own. In a moment of despair I told some of my very best friends (some of who I fancy majorly, but that's another matter!! LOL) that I never wanted to see them again. I swallowed my pride a few days later and apologized, but I don't know if they'll ever truly forgive me. I don't even know what I'm asking advice for... Maybe how do I broaden my friendship circle so I'm not so dependent on these few, given how shy and reticent I am? Or how do I stop myself reacting angrily under extreme stress? I just feel so lonely sometimes, I don't know what to do. I know I need a more positive outlook but what possible reason do I have? (link)

Oh wow, that was a handful, lol. First of all, never ever take your friends for granted. No matter if you're angry at them, jealous of them, or whatever! It's not the quantity of friends you have, but the quality. True friendships are hard to find, so don't let them go. As for your whole situation, your life sounds a lot like mine (minus the job part and the depression). I'm also very shy with not a huge circle of friends, but some very close ones. If you do want to broaden your friendship circle, get out! Go out every chance you get, never say no cause you'll never know what happen. You meet peopel through other people and other people, and it goes on and on! Or just go out by yourself, being by yourself isn't always a bad thing. And as for your shyness, I am too. But I don't let anyone know it. On the outside I excude confidence but on the inside I'm completely terrified. Take baby steps, smile at strangers, make small talk in lines, anything! Under extreme stress, just let it go. You'll get nothing accomplished (well) if you are stressed out. Just breathe and relax and take things one at a time. Don't worry about life so much, things always eventually work out, as long as you keep your head up and think positively :)

Probably because he has a girlfriend. He can't flirt with you in public because if his girlfriend found out, ooooo, there'd be BIG trouble. That is why he is so sweet in private. :)

Tell him this, "look/flirt all you want (I'm dead serious), but ALWAYS come back to me." Tyra Banks give GREAT advice. lol

k, i'm 5'4", 116 pounds, long brown hair to the bottom of my back, greenish eyes, long legs, and i'm wondering what would be some make up/fashion styles be for me. i have really fair skin if that helps any, i'd just like some tips to look cuter/hotter/whatever
please and thank you (link)

You sound beautiful, and green eyes are gorgeous. There was one thing I noticed though, hair all the way down to the bottom of your back?! Hardly anyone can pull that kind of hair off. So unless your hair is perfectly healthy, silky, and shiny, I would suggest cutting it. You wouldn't have to go much shorter either. Midback will still feel long but not give sooo much emphasis to your hair. So when people first see you, they see your eyes and features instead of HAIR.

14/f here, freshman in high school if that helps.
This requires a lot of explanation, so it'll be pretty long- sorry.
I have been going out with a guy, let's call him Bob, since October 18th. I first met Bob in sixth grade Art class, however he was really dorky and being the prep I was, I ignored him. In seventh grade I didn't see him or think about him at all. In eigth grade he was in my health class. I noted he was there and looked vaguely familiar, but didn't think much of him. This year, I saw him again at the Aloha Dance, and he looks much better, basically average. I danced with him and we agreed to meet up again sometime, then the dance ended and we went our seperate ways. Me & my friends were hanging out after school at the library one day when my friend asked who the guy was staring at me. I turned around and there he was! I said hi but that was it. This happened several times over the course of the week. Finally two weeks before the Homecoming Dance he asked me to go with him, and I said yes. I was so thrilled to be asked, I didn't really think about whether I liked him or not. He picked me up for Homecoming with the traditional wristlet, photos, etc. etc. then we went to dinner, and it was pretty quiet. The homecoming dance was fine except for the fact that he insisted on spending all our time with HIS friends- a few times I sneaked off to the "bathroom" just to hang out with mine. Also, he insisted on dancing VERY close. Finally at the end of the night he asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes, once again so happy to be asked I wasn't thinking. That was October 16th and I'm still dating him. There are several problems though.
First off, I DON"T LIKE HIM!!! Not at all. As a friend, yes, but no romantic interest.
Also, he's superpossesive- I never get to spend time with my friends at brunch or lunch. He insists on kissing me in front of my friends, which embarasses them. It just really annoys me.
Third, he's too serious about our relationship- he's told me he loved him (i just smiled), and is talking about PROM! (I'm a freshman, as is he.)
I know I should break up with him, but he's just too nice. Many people have told me I go too far when I try to be kind, and this is the best example. I really don't want to hurt him!

You're not doing him any favours if you're staying with him just to be 'nice'. If you really don't like him, break up with him! (but do it in a nice way :) This way, you can find someone who you like, and he can find someone who will like him back.

i get agrivaTed w/ my friend really easily and i say mean stuff and feel really bad. how do i like get nicer cuz i feel like we dont have a healthy relationship and i just wanna be happy around her cuz shes like my bff and i love her so much i just get agitated (link)
| |
Whenever you feel aggravated, and before you say anything, slowly count to three. While you're doing this, think about how you would feel if someone said to you the things you are just about to say. And if you still have to say it, at least try and make it sound like you're joking :)

for some reason people think im bisexual even though im not how can i make them stop because i do tell them if i was it wouldnt matter and then they make fun of me so how do i make this madness stop? (link)
| |
Simple, whenever someone asks you if you are bisexual, just tell them you're not! It shouldn't bother you what other people believe is true about you.

ok there's this boy a whole grade younger than me but i like him. and we talk online and sometimes we get into fights but we always end up forgiving eachother by the end of the night lol. but one time i went up to him in school (he was with his friends) and i asked him a question and he said "hey dork (even though im head cheerleader) do i know you?" i was so hurt that i left and everybody started laughing! then later that night he IMed me and said sorry and i said "2 bad u made me feel like crap so apology not accepted" and i blocked him.. was i right 2 do that? or should i give him one more chance? (link)
| |
Haven't you ever made fun of your friends as a joke? My friends and I call eachother losers, geeks, whatever! But we're always just joking. This boy was just playing around with you. The trick to never being embarassed is to laugh at yourself like you don't care what the other person says! So unblock him and start talking to him because he's obviously a dear friend to you, and next time he says something like that, just call him a loserface and get on with it :) (and btw even though you're head cheerleader doesn't mean you can't be a dork once in a while, trust me, everyone is)
