Q: Okay so like 2 months ago my mom got married again to this man she knew from her home town. At first I did not like him because he was not my dad but he grew on me. One day after classes i went to meet my mom at work for lunch. I went straight home afterwards.When I got home I heard something like a man moaning. I Knew no one was supposed to be home becasue my stepdad was supposed to be at work. The moans became louder as I aproached my moms room. So I thought to myself I just had lunch with my mom. And she was at work how could she be two places at once? I came to the conclusion the my stepdad was having an affair. I got angry and decided to bust open the door and catch him in action. To my great surprise it was not a woman in bed but a man. I could not belive the image I saw. I screamed and shot the door. I could not belive it. My stepdad who is such a Monday night football guy and who usally does not care for gay people was having sex with a man. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. He begged me to be quiet but I told my my mom anyway and what I can't belive is that she thiks that I made the entire thing up. She looked at me like i was crazy. She says that I never liked him in the first place (which is true) and that I would do anything to split them up. (not true). She cried all night none stop, she told me that I was breaking her heart how could i be so cruel. Our relationship is down the drain now. How do I get my Mom to see that I am not lying? Please help.

these kind of things are so tough. its so hard to convince someone of something they dont want to believe especially when you have no solid proof of it. its like the harder you try to make them understand the more they think you are lying. tell your mom exactly what happened and tell her you would never lie to her or hurt her in anyway on purpose. tell her you want nothing but her to be happy but if she is being done wrong that you will not stand for it. sometimes only time can reveal the truth. hope it all gets better!

Q: im into rock music. fall out boy, taking back sunday, halifax, hellogoodbye, panic! at the disco, etc. and i just got a new ipod. can someone suggest songs? thanks!

Q: My boyfriend is constantly trying to tease me. He'll show me his underwear, say kinky things to me, and try to get me in "the mood". It didnt bother me a whole lot, but I got the idea that he wanted a lot of this in return. So I started giving it to him. Only he responded by saying that I was no longer his innocent girlfriend, how I've changed, and how surprised he is at me. He seemed so dissapointed. This type of thing keeps happening. I'll show him what I think is a great picture of me and he'll somehow suggest that I have low selfesteem and I should realise how beautiful I am. I dont get it? Should he be the only one in our realtionship who acts this way? Did I go too far? I rate.

everything is such a double standard. its like if you give him what he wants, he thinks you arent the "innocent" girl he knew and if you dont he gets mad or just continues persistently with the comments. all i can tell you is to talk to him. tell him how you feel and what you thought he wanted. explain to him that you dont want to play the whole mind game thing anymore. you want it all out on the table. good luck

Q: Well, ok, here's the deal. I'm fourteen and i have a group of really close friends. I don't get crushes on girls, but my one friend has really nice, larger breasts and I like to touch them. This is because I am on the smaller side. Occasionally she lets me feel her, but sometimes she laughs it off. I enjoy it when I'm able to touch her. But, I just get turned on by things like this and horny.. Does this happen to anyone else? Also, there's this girl that touches me alot in those areas and it gets me really horny. I jsut like experimenting. Can someone please help me out? Thank you; I'll rate all fives.

so youre having a little fun, eh? ha theres absolutely nothing wrong with you trying things out but you should make sure that you only experiment with one or two people. you dont want to go around doing things with everybody. youll regret it later. yeh but i know there are tons of girls that either do or wish they could do stuff with a girl. just have fun and make sure you communicate with this girl.

Q: i am 13 female and i think that i am lesbian. i dont want to be lesbian and i want to stop. how do i stop being lesbian? i havent make out with a girl yet but here are the things i like: 1)girls kissing. 2) "perfect" breast. 3) cute faces. and 4) hearing girls moan during sexual things. i think that the cute face and perfect breast thing is just me being insecure about myself but what about the other things? anyway how did i become lesbian in the first place? is it in my genes or something? i need help!!!!!
i rate 5"s for good answers!

well first of all youre young and you really dont know what you want yet. having these feelings are scary, i know from experience but you cant read into them too much. the shape of a woman is a beautiful thing and even straight girls will tell you that. you need a while before you can decide your sexuality. no, being a lesbian is not genetic at all. you can have these feelings towards girls sexually and not be gay. you have a little while to sort things out.
good luck!
