Hey my name is Rachael and I'm sixteen years old. Like anyone else on this site, I love to help people. Ask me anything and I'll give the best possible answer I can!
advice
has anyone tried loreal sublime glow?? i want a natural glow and i wanted to know if that works..also if it does which works better Loreal or Jergens naturual glow..thanks
both of them are really good and they both have about the same effects.. I use Jergens religiously, though.
I have this plain black babydoll top.
I love it but it's a bit plain so I thought teaming it with black skinny jeans, some heels and a gray,green,white or purple(these are the colors I have) cardigan and a few accessories.
This is for a night out, but not clubbing. More like sitting at a cafe type of place having drinks and talking with friends.
So what do you think?
Or anything I should add/change/remove?
or even white jeans with it! black and white is so chic :)
How do you love? Not a sexual question.
love is not something you learn.
I have a new style this year for going back to school. Before it was kind of preppy, but now I have all Hollister, Aeropostle, and Pacsun clothes.. Do you think people will think im a "poser" ( I know, it's stupid...but i worry about it) or not? I mean, i have a lot of popular friends and stuff.. but i have never worn clothes like that besides 1 american eagle shirt... so, help? Oh, and do you think a handbag for school would be over the top?
No one is going to think you're a poser! Seriously.. who doesn't own something from hollister? And no, a handbag for school is not over the top at all.. a lot of girls, including myself, carry them in school!
There was this song like in 2000 or sometime and it went..
back it up girl you go it you got put your hands you got it you got it.
or something like that and i believe it was sung by gwen but i can't find it anywhere so what was it called??
Crash - Gwen Stefani.. love that song, it's actually from like 2005 or 2006 on the Love Angel Music Baby album :)
okay, this is kinda long. so i've been trying to unlock my 8g iphone for TMobile. every time i pull up itunes (its required i guess to work iLiberty+)it says i need to restore the phone or update software, so i do that. then i start ilberty, and it says the phone wont go into recovery mode, and tells me to keep repeating the process. the phone keeps telling me to connect to itunes, then when i restore factory settings it wont continue with the process. what am i doing wrong??? i keep going in circles
please help~!
Did you buy your phone at the store or online from like Ebay? If you got it from the store, bring it back and have them unlock it. If you got it on ebay, I really don't know what else to tell you! sorry! :(

sorry i know its an awkward question.
umm.. you can't?
I really want some good like divorce songs. So if you know any let me know. Thanks in advance.
Stay Together For the Kids - Blink 182
Ok, thanks for the advice again. You are really good at this so i have more to the story. This is kinda long. Sorry if i am driving you nuts with this. Oh, and over the summer me and jared "talked" for a week but then he had to get a job so he couldn't talk anymore but we still texted as friends but nothing flirty. We still text, but again, nothing flirty. Well today in class she sat in the same seat as him and was helping him with a worksheet and every couple of seconds i would see them wispering to eachother. So i was standing right behind them and she still wouldn't stop. Then, they both volenteered to run an errand for the teacher and they were gone forever and i bet the whole time, they were flirting. Then, in the next class she was like "Omg, jared tried on my ring (i guess just to be funny) and he streched it out." I gave her kind of a weird look and she said "Me and jared are just friends so you don't have to worry." Then i was like "Does he know that i like him?" and she said that he had known for two days and he said he dosen't know if he likes me. I don't know if she was telling the truth but i think she was. Ever since he knew that i liked him he hasn't hugged me or said hi to me every morning like he used to or talk to me any. I don't think he likes me anymore but i'm not sure. I don't really want to ask him. I don't know how to act around kaysy now. If i call her out on it, she might go back to him and say that i keep bugging her about him or she might say to him, "she thinks that we are flirting." I don't want him to think i'm jealous. But if i don't do anything, she might keep flirting and just keep doing it and she might think it dosen't bother me. I have never liked a guy this much and now she does this. I don't know how to act around her anymore. What should i do and how should i act around her. Now, every time i talk to him, he is probably thinking that i am flirting. I don't like guys knowing that i am flirting unless that guy likes me to. But like i said, he talks to her a lot more than me but he just has that flirty personality so i'm not sure if he actually likes her or if he is just flirting just for the heck of it. Please help! Thanks!!
Okay, so this is getting a little out of hand with the way your friend is acting. It was okay for awhile but now it's gone on too long. I think your friend is being a little sketchy and untrustworthy. You need to tell her that. You need to be completely honest and straight forward with her by telling her that you don't like the way she treats him and she's not being a very good friend. She's going OUT OF HER WAY to flirt with him by helping him with worksheets and leaving class to walk around the halls with him. I know you're sort of put in an awkward position where you don't want to bring this up to her because she may get offended and tell the boy you like, but it needs to be said. Pull the "how would you feel if i did that to you?" card. As much as people don't like to hear that, it gets them thinking. Because she obviously wouldn't want you to do that to her!
As for the guy, he seems a little stand off-ish and that could be for a couple of different reasons. 1.) He knows that you like him but he's confused because your friend who's suppose to SET YOU UP is FLIRTING with him! He probably thinks that's pretty shady and he doesn't want to get involved.
Another reason could be (probably not the one you want to hear) that the feelings aren't mutual. He just may not feel the same way about you. It's hard to think about that because you like him so much, but it's a possiblity. It may even be a good thing if you found out sooner than later that he doesn't like you back, because then you can start focusing on other guys you may be interested in. It would give you time to move on. In this case, it helps to think about the negative qualities that could have been in a relationship like, he flirts with a bunch of girls or something.
When I was a freshmen in high school, I fell really hard for this upper classmen guy because he showed me a lot of attention and he would flirt with me (even though he had a girlfriend). So one night, soon after his girlfriend broke up with, him he came over and we ended up hooking up. The next day he called me and apologized for doing that because he said he didn't like me like that and that we'd never date. I think about that and I'm still crushed because I liked him soo much, but in a sense, I was glad he did that. I figured out who he really was, and realized we would never work!
I sort of hope if you figure out he doesn't like you, you'll move on. But hey, there's always other possiblities as to why he's being a little weird.
I hope I helped you out a little bit! If you have any more questions or need my advice for anything just keep messaging me! I'll always reply!
You answered my question about how i thought my friend was flirting with the guy i like. I liked your advice so i wanted to give you some more info about what she is doing. And, like you said, i think she is trying to prove to me that he would like her over me even if she dosent like him. Now that you have pointed that out to me, i have noticed it. Well, at the beginning of class, she wrote me a note that said, "You and jared(the guy i like) would be so cute together." And i was like well maybe she isn't flirting and all that and then i wrote back and told her that i didn't know if he liked me or not and she said she would find out. Well the whole class they were either hugging, laughing together really hard, or talking. They had a really long convo and it was forever and they were kind of off by theirselves. I thought it was her trying to find out if he liked me but when i asked her after class if she found out and it took her a long time to figure out what i meant so i know thats not what they were talking about the whole time. She was like "oh, he said he didn't know." I was feeling kind of down the whole time after that class and she didn't even recognize my sadness. I don't think she knows what she is doing. I mean, i think that she thinks i won't get mad or something but i do. It might just be her personality but i've had 3 other people come up to me and say "why is your friend flirting with the guy you like?" I mean, they are noticing it to so obviously it is obvious. i have already confronted her about it once and she was like "oh, he is just my friend, i wasn't flirting, he is all yours." But then she goes around and does it again. It seems kinda like he if flirting back though when she does it to though. That's just his peronality though. Like today he hugged her from behind and said "oh, kaysy, help me with this." He was talking about our assignment. I mean, i actually find a guy i really like and then she does this to me. She has had tons of guys and i have only had 2 in my whole life and never been kissed and she has to do this to me. Everytime, we see him in the hall on the wasy to his class or something, she is like "lets go talk to jared." I am like "why do u care so much?" I don't really want to talk to her about it either. Also, now since that happned i don't know how to act around her. I mean, i am very mad but i don't usually show my emotions to people. I don't know what to say to her or how to act around her anymore. What should i do? I am very sorry this is so long but i loved your advice and depend on it so i thought you could help me with this. Thanks!
Well I'm glad you think my advice is helpful. :) Have you ever seen the movie Mean Girls? If you have, then you're fimilar with the part where Cady asks Regina to go talk to the guy she likes for her and Regina says she will but instead she just flirts with him and tries to get him to go out with her! I totally see this going on with you. I was right about your friend, she's competing with you. I have one of these friends of my own, like I said before. My friend can get anyyy guy she wants and the second I found one that I really really liked, she was all over him. So she is JUST like your friend. You know what I think it is? Your friend is actually a really jealous and insecure person. She doesn't want you to have this guy because then it'll feel like it's something she can't have. And I still sort of feel bad for the guy that's being caught in the middle of this because he has NO idea what's going on! haha, and of course if a girl flirts with him, he's going to flirt back, that's how all guys are.
So here's what I think you should do..
Take the initiative. If you have something to say to him, say it to him directly! Don't relay it with your friend, because OBVIOUSLY the information you're telling her to send him is not transferring the way it should! Do you have his cell number? If you don't, then ask for it. It doesn't really seem like a big deal.. but that's a huge step. If you ask for it, then ask if he has texting. If he does, text him! Eventaully call him. Then ask him if he has plans for friday night :) This is going to spell it out CLEAR that you're interested in him. It may sound scary to have to ask him all these things but don't chicken out! If you like this guy enough, you'll do it. Trust me, it moves so fast and the conversation will flow and before you know it it's over and you'll feel GREAT!
This way, the guy knows you're interested and the girl has no way of interfering! and plus, guys love girls who take action because it makes them seem confident and self aware!
Sorry for such a long response again! I just really want to help :) haha So please try this! It's definitely going to pay off!
Can yeast infections go away by themselves if not treated after a while?
In some cases, yes, but not always. I really think you should buy a treatment over the counter to help clear it up and ease the discomfort. If that doesn't work, then you know you need to see your doctor!
so this guy slipped it in with no condom for a minute or less and i told him to stop because i didnt want to become pregnant. then he did it again about 2 weeks later and i told him to stop after a minute..
i am supposed to get my period today but it didnt come and its late at night. it might be a couple days late...it sometimes is
what are the chances of me being pregnant from precum?!!?
HELPPP :)
Very slim. Some guys don't even pre ejaculate. Don't stress about not getting your period because stress can make it come even later than it should!
Ok you guys, it's Brittany AGAIN!!!! I met his mom, she likes me, but his dad isn't too comfortable with me, which makes me wonder if I should contniue this relationship. (reason being, some boys take side of their fathers). Anyways, his father was like getting really mad at some of the answers I gave and you guys said to be myself, and I was. He asked me this 1 question which threw me completely off. "Would you ever leave my son for another girl or boy." As soon as I heard girl my eyes flew open. And no I would never leave him for another boy, but I'm not lez...I think my bf told his dad that I was bi-sexual or something, which really makes me wonder if he's making up bad things about me to his parents...and it really makes me unconfortable with him lieing and stuff, but I really love him and I know that he loves me, but he also says if his friends don't like me then it's over automatically. What do I do?! Continue dating this guy or break it loose???? Please help, again...
okay, what threw me off completely was when you said "he also says that if his friends don't like me then it's over automatically." I'm going to be honest with you, this guy sounds like a total douche. Maybe he didn't make stuff up about you to his father, he probably just takes AFTER his father. Meaning, his dad is a douchebag, too. It's true, a boy is going to take after his father because he's always the biggest role model in the boy's life. Now that you know what his dad's like, you know what your boyfriend's going to be like. Maybe take that into consideration and think it through whether you still want to be with him or not.
I'll give you guys some background on the situtation.
So since the beginning of May I've really liked this guy and we started talking and we flirted and hung out all the time, but it never went further than that. Than in the beginning of June he started dating a girl I thought was my friend. But he was hoenst about it and I was fine and started talking to other boys.
So while they were dating he'd call me and hang out with me. And than one time we were at the mall and he kept finding excuses to touch me and I thought it was EXTREMELY AWKWARD, I mean he has a girlfriend.
So he broke up with her a little bit later and I told him I liked him and he said he needed to think, this was beginning of July. Than we made out like a week after this convo and he told me he didn't want a girlfriend. So he went on vacation and made out with another girl and I was fine with that cuz I made out with my ex.
He comes back and we made out again and now I'm so confused, he texts me all the time, visits me at work, puts up with my friends, and a bunch of stuff.
But I don't know, are we just friends with benefits or is there a chance for more?
PLAYYYERR written allll over him. Please don't waste your time on him. :( If you guys want to be FWB and you think that you're emotionally capiable with it (wich i don't think any girl is) then go ahead, just don't expect anything more out of it. He's only got one thing on his mind, hun..
I think if you're looking for love, find a guy who is going to treat you right, not some player who's only going to text you when he feels its conveinent.

I like this guy in my class and he liked me over the summer but i'm not sure if he does now. Anyways, my friend kaysy always talks to him and he talks to her a lot but he talks to a lot of girls because he has a lot of friends that are girls. She on the other hand always talks to him and says " Me and him are such good friends, i just love him to death, he is just like a bro to me. " I know she would never do anything like go out with him or anything because she is my really good friend and she even says we would be cute together, etc. But it seems like she is flirting a lot. Idk if it is just her personality like that or not but i can't confront her about it because when i did she said "oh, i'm not flirting, i know he's all yours." And, he talks to a lot of girls so i don't know if he likes me or not. My friend megan said he flirts with me sometimes but i am really confused about it. Today he gave me a hug for the first time and i was really excited but he hugs a lot of girls. How do i find out if he likes me without being to obvious because i have to see him every day and i don't want to be embarrased around him all the time if he says no or something. Also, i am kinda shy so i don't want to do anything that is to outgoing. Thanks!
I've been through this, girl.
My best friend was friends with this guy that I really really liked and she knew that I liked him. Him and I would flirt and text allll the time but she'd STILL always call him and that pissed me off! Then she'd say to me "He's like a brother to me, I loveee himmm" BLAH I hated it! Well, him and I kept texting and talking on the phone and we eventually went on dates and then he asked me out :) and we've been together for 15 happy months :))
So here's what I think about your story. Your friend, whether or not she knows it or she's just competetive by nature, is competing with you. She knows you really like him, and she probably knows that you're really shy, right? She probably has a really jealous personality, no? She wants to see if she's more desirable than you. So I say, prove her wrong. Don't let her stop you from pursuing him. Keep flirting and talking and he'll eventually get the picture.
He's obviously just being a boy and trying to boost his ego by being around a lot of girls. Stand out from the other girls, try to make yourself more than that to him. And if you do, you don't need to find out if he likes you, he'll make it apparent.
Sorry for the reallyy long response! I just really want to help you because I see a lot of myself in you, and I reallyy want this to work out for you!
Does anyone know a good coverup that will hide a pretty big/dark birthmark that I have on my neck. I've tried several basic coverups and they've made it less noticeable.. but barely. I really want a good coverup to completely hide it (or come close) because I'm really self conscious of it and I just want it gone..
the best foundation I've used so far is TruBlend, it works wonders! But.. i only really use it to hide blemishes, i haven't had to use to hide something dark like a birthmark, but definitely give it a shot! it's a great foundation
my eye has been twitching for days now. it is annoying.. why and what can i do?
Eye twitching is a sign of stress. Could that be it? If it is, make sure you're getting plently of sleep and enough peace and quiet to relax :)
So it seems like latley, instead of worrying about school ( which i am.) I'm worrying about my Ex-BFF.
We drifted apart this summer.
Like; No talking at ALL- which i really dont know what happened..
Maggie (exbff) and me alllways hung out. We were such good friends. Lets say we werrre attached by the shoulders.
But, this summer; I kind of got fed up with her. How much she changed. I can't stand it, I meen I see her on myspace and I hear about her from my other bestfriend ( who hangs out with maggie more then I do. ALOT MORE) and I get ... annoyed? In a way I want to be still friends with her, but then I see her and I'm like " UGH!" . I dont know it's so confusing! And now that school is going to start, I really dont know what to do. I'm mad because we drifted apart, and I'm mad at her for that. I meen she goes across the street to my other friends house, and never comes and sees what I'm up to?
okay so, yeah I dont know exactly what I'm feeling- that's where the confusing part comes in.
But I need help with how to deal with it in school. How much shes changed with her new "bff" and how to show her that I've been GREAT without her, instead of talking about the stupid Old times. you know what I meen? even though I have been great.
But Not seeing her this summer took a whole load off; lets just say I was STRESS FREE! ahha.
So yeah- things do happen for a reason; I became much better friends with my other friends who I hang out with mostly everyday..
Now to deal with it in school 24/7; help?
As you get older, you're definitely going to find out that people change and they're not what they seem.. and it's tough especially when it's your BFF. It'll probably be awkward in school for awhile, but you're going to have to learn to deal with it. No one is forcing you to be best friends with her again, you don't even have to like her, but be kind to her. Keep doing what you're doing now. Make plans with alll your other friends and keep busy! and definitely try your hardest to make new friends this year, because you never know, you may just find your next BFF!
how do i get rid of the spider veins on my face?
there's no way to get rid of them :(
but you can definitely hide them!
try using a foundation or a tinted moisturizer and I garantee they won't be as visable
so if my friends and i were to seran wrap or post-it note someone's car, thats not illegal is it? because it's not vandalizing property? anything we could get in trouble for by law?
Yea. It is. hahahaha
It is considered vandalizing and if you get caught, you're dead. You'll get a fine or something. I know around here where I live, if you get caught TPing a house, for each roll of toliet paper you use it's like 20 bucks you're fined.
So i suggest.. Don't get caught ahha
