I am writing a novel about a sixteen year old girl who is forced to go to a summercamp. While she is there she meets a 25 year old man who lives up in the forest and falls in love with him. Then he gets creepy and kidnaps her to his cabin that's up in the forest where he is holding two other girls because he says that he is "in love with them and wants no one to get in the way of their love" and they have to escape and get back.
Basically the whole theme is rebellion and its effects.
would you be interested in reading this? what other things or twists could i add to make it more interesting? (link)

I dont quite understand how the theme could be rebellion. Based on your description it would be a false sense of love and the will to survive. However, I respect your creative rights and I'm sure you've already figured that out.
Maybe having the man be younger would be more believeable. Or you could simply not saw how old specifically, just say he is young looking. Ooooh! Good idea! He could claim to be a runaway, that way it won't look so suspicious that a 25 year old is living in a forest, lol.
Give the guy an interesting background, like a messed up childhood or a difficult family life. If he's holding three girls hostage he's definitely psycho, and the reader will need some explanation to why.
Also, make sure the guy gets what he deserves! Readers love it when the "bad guys" are punished justly and the "good guys" come out on top.
Over all, i think it is a new and brilliant idea! Good luck! I'm sure it will turn out great! :]

First off I would like to say I will not judge you in any way, and I applaud you for being concerned for yourself.
Now lets get to it. Having sex is a divine right given to two people in a matrimonial bond...at least that is what our parents, teachers, and religious leaders are telling us. Today, kids are becoming sexually active earlier than previous times. For one, teenagers are developing a desire for sexual relations earlier, which is caused by a gland in your brain. Thats right, your drive for sex is controled by a chemical in your brain, which today's generation is developing earlier and earlier. Yet, most people do not get married until their later 20's and early 30's. Thats nearly TEN years that you have a drive to have sex but are told you have to refrain. Thats a long time. So biologically speaking, its extremely easy to give in.
But is must say, don't take your sexuality lightly. Being sexually active is a MAJOR responsibility. It is your job to take care of your body and do what is best to enable you to attain success. Having sex at an early age can have extremely detrimental effects on your life in the long run. Being a high school mother I'm sure is not a part of your plan. And contracting and STD will be all a guy needs to know before he kicks you to the curb. Not to mention the emotional stress that can come from having sex. Some guys think a girl who isn't a virgin is "dirty" and isn't "pure" in their eyes, which means they may not want to be with you. Think long and hard about whether this is the path you want to lead yourself down on. Imagine yourself ten years down the road abstaining from having sex, then compare it to how your life would be if you continued. Choosing to abstain will tell a guy that he deserves your respect, and if he cannot appreciate that, he doesn't deserve you anyways. No one wants to be someone else's leftovers. Protect yourself, and demand respect. Every young woman deserves that much.
However, the fact that you're asking others if you are a slut means that you are uncertain about it yourself. If you question yourself, I think you've already answered your own question.
No one has the right to judge you or tell you who you are. Only you can define yourself. If others tell you that you are a slut, that doesn't mean you are. However, if you think that you're a slut, you have just definted yourself.
Most importantly, you should never have to justify yourself. Be confident, be strong, and dont let others push you around and tell you who you are. Dont let others tell you who YOU are, you tell THEM!
Good luck! and I hope everything works out for the best! :]

So, i just got these colored contacts. And i have spent probably about 5-6 hours trying to get them in [not in one time period] My mom got them to go in hers, and a friend of mine got them to go in his. I cant get them in mine! I have tried everything, they tried to get it in mine NOTHING WORKS! So, maybe its because i have smallish eyes, so would i be able to get contacts that are small? Or are they all standard sizes? Or is there a certain trick?
If you have an answer let me know please!
thank you so much. (link)

most contacts that are tricky, can be easily inserted if you do it a certain way.
most of the time, i look to the far right corner, and stick the contact in the far left side of my eye, and then close my eyelid and swivel my eyelid around for a while, and you can feel it go into place.
if that doesn't work, ask you eye doctor about specific brands that would fit your eye shape better, my brother's eyes aren't as curved, so he has special contacts that fit his eyes, so i'm sure they'll make them smaller!
good luck!

okay so my bestfriend and her boyfriend were together on friday right? and i hung out with her after she left his house. she tells me him and her both got naked and that stuck it in for like 5seconds she doesnt think he came but she is still a little confused and the day after[saturday] she got her period. do you think she can still be pregnant.. please answer soon... chelsea is anxious of knowing.. :]
-Melissa! (link)

she is NOT pregnant. girls have an ovulation period, and there is only a certain time between her periods that she is acctually fertile enough to become pregnant. right before a period, is NOT one of those times. also, having your period is a sign that your body is not pregant, so it sheds its linning along the uteran wall. so no, she can relax, she is perfectly fine. :]
i do suggest however that she seriously consider whether she is ready for such a commitment as being sexually active. there are lots of consequences that can come from being unprepaired, like pregnancy, STDs, and emotional distress. make sure she knows how to protect herself and to be safe. good luck!

I run on the tredmeal and i try to eat healthy but i keep gaining weight, this morning i was 130 pounds this after noon i ram on the tredmeal for a hour and then tonight i am 132 pounds, i don't know how i am gaining weight :(.I would give enything at all to be skinny, some one please help me! (link)

first and foremost, i applaud you for wanting to take care of your body and be healthy. its a great decision and its amazing that you're working hard for it, good job! :]
everyone's body is different, and sometimes working out doesn't give immediate effects. you have to take into consideration that when you woke up this morning, you probably went to the bathroom, and you didn't have any food in your stomach. so you weighted less because of it. and through out the day you ate, and you had food in your stomach which could've contributed to the two pounds. i'm not saying starve yourself, nothing good can come from that. all i mean is to be patient and be consistant with your eating habits and exercise routine. keep working out, keep eating healthy. it may just take longer than you imagined to loose the weight you want.
good luck and i hope you get the results you want!

Well its the alltime favourite..
Ive falled for a best friends ex..
But its not that easy
I plucked up the courage to tell him the just after they split..
And he said he felt the same.
Thing is he really hurt her and she has helped me through so much.
Wen we are in the same room and she goes on about how much she loves him and is trying to get him back , I dont know what to say.
Im dating him now .. and well things are great, We have told most bust have agreed to tell her together
But how should I approach it , I really dont want to hurt her, as when she split with him , she attempted suicide ! =( (link)

honey, let me just say that i am going through the same situation, and its not easy. i haven't told my friend either, but this is what i'm planning to say.
"hey, i know you probably won't be too happy with what i'm about to tell you. but you're my friend, and because i really cherish our friendship, i have to be completely honest with you and tell you something. me and (his name) have been talking, i know, and i can't help it, but i'm attracted to him. I wish it wasn't him, and i wish it didn't have to work out so crappy like this because i know it must hurt you, and i don't want you to feel that way. You are an amazing person, and a wonderful friend and i am always here for you, and i am always going to be on your side. But i wanted to let you know because you deserve to hear the truth, and i respect whatever you feel, because i know it must hurt you. and i feel completely horrible about it, but i just needed to let you know."
hopefully things will work out for everyone, and i'm really sorry you're going through the same thing. stay strong! let faith and persistance guide you.
