How do you feel better when you are crying? I'm kinda going through a really rough time and I'm having some sleeping problems. If it helps, the rough thing I'm going through is a break-up. We were together for about 3 years and he just ended it. So can anyone give me some tips on how to stop crying and feel better?

♥ Crying will actually make you feel better. The more you share your emotion, the better you'll feel. If you feel anger or sadness do NOT hold in it. It explodes later on. Don't take your anger out on people though. If your close to one of your parents; talk to them about how your feeling, or if you have a really close friend. It feels really good when you know the people your closest to know how your feeling.
But I really can't imagine what your going through. 3 years?!? That must be really hard, and i'm really sorry.
Try opening yourself upto new situations. Try to get involved in clubs or organizations that you have interest in. Volunteering and giving back really makes you feel better. But feeling sad and being unable to sleep is completely normal after a break-up. This will take time to get over.
Also, if you have insomnia (sleep problems) I have really good tips for you-
-No caffiene before bed time. (4 hours before you go to bed)
-Try not to eat a lot before bedtime, because digestion might keep you up. Yogurt is actually really good before you go to bed, because its easily digested.
-none-caffinated herbal tea really relaxes you and calms you before bed time.
-Try reading in a different place besides your bed. If you had a chair or couch in your room.
-Soft music really helps.
-Try to get into a routine. Like 10PM go to sleep and wake up at 7AM, every night.
-Shower/bath before bedtime really helps.
-Make bedtime fun by lighting candles, putting lotion on,meditating,exc.

I have insomnia/depression and this has helped me a ton. :] Good luck!

Do you know any Halloween quotes? I have been looking for so long and I don't know any. Thanks so much.

♥Hmm. Halloween quotes.
:/ I really don't know of any. I'm really sorry. I've tried to find holiday quotes before and I couldn't find any either.
Try asking everyone on advicenators. Someone might know.

Is it weird not to want sex? Other people have it before they are married, but I want it after. If even then. I always said I would adopt my children. How I see it children are like puppies. Puppies are sent to pounds because they were not able to be taken care of, or not wanted. (Same as children sent to adoption agencies.) And the reason puppies, and children, are not being adopted is because dogs, and women, keep having babies. Then when the puppies owners can't find good homes for them they are sent to the pound, which just keeps on growing. So why would we want children when there are several at adoption aggencies waiting for a good family to arrive and take them home? Plus there is all that pain, and blood. But because I don't want to do it are people gonna try to make me later on? Thanks in advance.

♥I feel the same way. I'm scared to have a baby and I don't want to have sex.
Personally, I think its gross LOL. But when I tell people they're always like " You'll change, you'll see"
But maybe they're right. Once we're older ( like maybe 17, or 18) we'll want to.
But i'm like you, i'll probobly adopt instead, because of all the unwanted children in the world. Plus i'd love to have a multicultural family. :]

my bestfriend is realli obsee with this kid she likes and she wont stop talkin to him && shes really annoying me so i hope she shuts up before i kick her ass so waht should i do .

♥ Tell her to stop talking about him if it annoys you so much. But why does it bother you?
You might not realize it but you may be jelous.
Try to sort out your feelings and try to understand your anger towards her.

Hope I helped♥

how long should you be in a relationship before you kiss your girlfriend?

♥ Whenever you and your girlfriend feel ready. You should wait until you and your girlfriend feel really comfortable with eachother. You should deffitely be alone when you first do it so she doesn't get emberassed. Make sure it's romantic too. :]

Good luck!
Love,
Lauren♥

Well it seems I have this little problem with saying "I love you" too much... My fiance says its starting to get really annoying lol, But don't get me wrong he does say it back a few times but sometimes I get really offensive or mad when he doesn't say it back everytime even though I think I do over do it too much (I don't know I guess one would just assume "I love you too" is an automatic response). Do you think maybe I'm just too insecure? Lol I mean I suppose there is such a thing as saying it TOO much but how do I stop? I mean obviously I do love him and I want him to know that.... Is there a way I can teach myself not to sound like a broken record though?

♥♥ Aw, well personally I think there is nothing wrong with saying "I love you" too much! You have so much love for your fiance that you can't control it.
Maybe your fiance wants you to prove it or show it instead of saying those 3 words over and over again.
When you feel a sudden urge to say "I love you" show it physically by showing him affection.
Before you try this, say I love you one more time to him. If he says he's annoyed, then ask why. See what he says. If he says "You say I love you too much. Say "Can you really say I love you TOO much?" Then see what he says.

I hope this helps. Im only 15, I know i'm probobly a lot younger than you, but I hope this helps you. Let me know!
love,
Lauren♥

okay you know how in proactive there are like 3 bottles, one for the face wash, one for the toner and one for the lotion..

okay well the problem is that i dont have enough money to buy proactive so could someone give me either a good face wash, a good toner, or a good lotion for ACNE ..it would be plenty of helpful and ill rate 5's for anyone that trys

oh and also for each product i dont want it to be too pricey, like under $10 for each bottle

♥♥ I tried everything for my acne. I even tried proactive and it didn't do anything at all. It just irritated my face.

Like I said, I've tried everything, and these are the things that worked best for me.

Face wash- You should use something really light for your face. When you use organic/natural products it only strips the bad oils from your face, leaving the natural oils that cleanse your skin, which is really good. I would use burt's bees cleanser or deep pore scrub. Each are really good. Clean&Clear products are good, and don't seem to break my skin out.

Toner- I've never really used toner before. But you don't HAVE to use a toner. Only if you have really really oily skin. I wouldn't use a toner every day either. Sometimes the alcohol in it really irritates your face. If I were you, I would try a toner from Clean&Clear or neutrogena and see how it works. I don't know for sure whether it'll be good on your skin or not. Also don't put on a toner in the morning before you go out, or before you put on your makeup. It makes your acne really red, because it brings out your pores. Also a tip;Before you buy a toner, make sure you open it up and smell it. It it smells really strong like the smell of alcohol ( like nail polish remover), that will be way to strong for your face) Buy one that has a lighter smell. That way you can sense the ammount of alcohol.

Moisterizer-The best moisterizer I've used is Clean&clear Dual Action moisturizer. It's for acne and it has salicylic acid in it, which is good for your acne. This is good to put on before bed and/or in the morning. It makes your skin feel really clean and fresh, without making it feel all oily. Another really good moisterizer is from the brand Alba; aloe&green tea oil-free moisterizer. It's organic/natural. You can find it at whole foods or wild oats.
I hope I helped!
Love, ♥ Lauren

ok well people say that warm water opens your pores and cold will shurink them....well when you put on warm water than face wash than wash off with cold water does it work better? also some face washes give a tingly feeling does that have anything to do with it working or not...i mean like does the washes that dont have the tingly feelin not work as good? please help ...and any websights would be great! ill rate high

♥♥ When Face washes give you tingly feelings, it does not neccisarily mean its working. It may and it may not. They specifically make the fash wash do that so you can either feel really clean or think its working.

You should wash your face with lukewarm water, or cold if you want. Just make sure its not hot. You should deffintely rinse off with cold water at the end. That way, your opening up your pores in the beginning to wash them, then shrinking them back when your finished.

I hope I helped!
Love always♥

What is good face wash and moisterizer for combo skin? I need something thats oil free, but is strong enough for my dry skin. Something that wont cause pimples.

Anyone?

Thanks

♥ For face wash I would try anything aveeno or Burt's bees. They're both natural and work wonders for your skin.
For moisturizer I would use Clear&clear Dual Action moisturizer. I use it right now, and I love it. It's really light and feels good on your skin. I also have combination skin, and it does great on my face.

♥ I hope i helped!

i am 14/f and i have acne.. but not like MAJOR acne but i have some small ones and when i eat some certain foods like junk food and fried and hot foods, i get bigger pimples, what are some good treatments or face washes? or zit cream for the bigger pimples?

♥ Since you don't have major acne, I think you should really stick to simple natural products. Aveeno calming foaming cleanser is really good. Also using an exfoliator 1-2 times a week is a really good idea. Burt's bees deep pore scrub is amazing.
Deffintely try to not eat so much junk food. It drives your hormones crazy. Every once in awhile is fine. Lots of fruits and vegetables help skin tremondously. Caffine also drives skin crazy. If your a starbucks addict like me, just get decalf.
I promiss this will help. Keep eating healthy and trying ^those products and I promiss your skin will continuely be clear.
:] I hope I helped! good luck!

Love always

HEY PEOPLE

I need your honest opinion, is kissing with lipgloss or without better??

If WITH - what flavor??

I would say yes. But not the gooey gross sparkly stuff. I would say like good tasting lipbalm that makes your lips soft and smooth.

alright so heres the deal. me and this guy used to go out. we went out like 6 times, and one time was almost for a year. He's always the one dumping ME, but somehow we end up back together again. Six months ago,he broke up with me so were not currently going out, but i still really like him, and i think he likes me again, too.Maybe he changed, but Im not sure if i should just keep giving him chances? but i really like him. Do you think its a good idea if we go out? Or should i just get over him? THANKS ALOT.

♥♥ Before you two go out again I think you should talk about the relationship; not just jump into it again. You should make sure its going to be a good one this time and make sure it'll be more serious if thats what you want.
If you feel like your going to get hurt by him again I would explore new people for awhile until you find out what has been causing him to break up with you so many times.
Its totally upto you. Its a risk you have to take. If you feel like your happier with him then Go out because you might learn things from eachother. And even if your relationship doesn't go that far, you could end up being really good friends.
And like I said before, If you want, talk to him and make sure this time the relationship is diffrent and better.
:D GOOD LUCK BABE. ♥ ♥

does pinching your cheeks give your face color? i dont mean pinching it hard so it hurts, but just a little pinch.

♥♥ No it'll make a mark and only leave redness in a tiny area. Buy blush or bronzer instead.

i'm 12/f and im too scared to ask my mom to shave my legs idk but wenever i wanna ask her im to embarassed to.. and since summer is comming up i wanna wear shorts and capris and stuff but i cant cuz of my hairy legs!! last week we had temps in the 80's and i wore jeans!!!! pleaseee help me, thankssss so much

:/ aw all you can do is ask her. Theres no other way. Sit her down and tell her exactly how you feel. Tell her that you would feel so much better and it would save you from emberessment this summer. If she still says No, then ask her why she decided that you cant. If she says you cant because your too young, then tell her that it doesnt madder how old you are but how much hair you have on your legs, and show her. Also tell her how you feel when you get emberassed. Show emotion, so she can see exactly how you feel about it.
If your friends shave their legs tell her that. Usually it makes parents feel better knowing that their not the only ones who let their kids do certain things. Tell her that you and her together can go to the store and buy a razor and stuff and you'll let her show you how to do it. It might make her feel better if she knows it will be a project you two can do together.
Trust me, these will work. I've used these methods many many times. ;] GOOD LUCK GIRLIE!♥

My eyebrows were thick until I attacked them. But they grow in very long pieces.. and they often get pushed down over my eyelid. I tried cutting those.. but it looks weird when I do that.

Should i get my eyebrows professionally done?

I want my eyebrows not to be so low near my eyes.. I want an arch..

Do I grow out my eyebrows first and go see them?

Or go to one and get it done and
then wait for it to grow out?

♥ Yeah defffinetely get them professionally done. There really is nothing you can do by yourself without there being a big risk of messing them up, and you dont want to do that.
They'll give you an arch is you ask them, they'll also trim them so their not so long, and they'll get rid of excess unwanted hairs.
I would go to a spa or a really good nail place to get them done. ♥ Good luckk babe.

I want pretty eyes.. How can I make my eyes stand out? Do I use a pencil eyeliner on top and liquid on the bottom? What colors [eyeshadow] go together? er.. or what colors would look good on me?

I have dark brown hair. Brown eyes. light skin but not pale.

♥ When you use your pencil and liquid eyeliner its going to make your eyes look smaller. But instead of just not using eyeliner at all; I think you should only use a little bit, BUT dont drag the eyeliner all the way across. about 3/4 distance.
If you can I would just not put any on the top. the lighter the color of the eyeliner, the more natural and pretty your eyes look.
I would suggest either a dark brown, light brown, or even a colored pencil.
Since you have dark brown hair and brown eyes, I think you should stick to natural earthy colors such as browns or golds. Also light reds would look really pretty on your cheeks and maybe a little on your lids.
GOOD LUCK! if you have any other questions feel free to ask. ♥ Lauren

hey! there is this guy i like, and i really thought he liked me. alot of people kept telling me that he did. we haven't really talked before, and he isn't in any of my classes but he would always give me signs that he liked me. so i wrote him a note and i told him that i like him, and i asked if he liked me. i also asked him to write back and gave my locker number. at the end of the day on friday, my friend gave him the note, and he still hasn't respond. i feel really hurt and upset because i thought he liked me. what should i do?

♥ Hey girliee.
Its okay. I dont think there is anything to worry about. I think he's just shy. I think he does like you though, because you said he gave you signs. If he didnt give you any signs and didnt respond then that would be a different story. And also when you said people told you that he liked you..Im sure thats true. Why would they say that if it wasnt true?
I think you should just hang around and wait. Im sure hes waiting for the perfect time to give you a note back..or even better ask you out. :D
I would ask one of his friends privately on AIM or something what happened.
Good luck. Im sure everything will work out!! ♥

hey! okay, i'm 15/f and i'm allowed to get my belly button pierced after our last cheerleading competition, which is around march 13. but, we are going to mexico for spring break on march 24, and i don't know if i should get it done before spring break or not. i want it when i'm laying on the beach and stuff but will the water in mexico and all the chlorine be bad for it? i don't know if i should get it done before or after mexico. any ideas? any info on belly button piercing would be great too!

hey! ♥
Im in mexico right now. And i got my belly button pierced today. The guy said the salt water in the ocean is good for the piercing. He didnt say anything about the chlorine in the pool though. Im staying out of the pool tomorrow but im gona go back in a few days. Im sure its not harmful. Also the guy said i didnt need to do anything for the piercing because it irritates it. The only thing was to move it .
around sometimes and if it starts to get red or hurt then put neosporin on it.
Its all so worth it because they look adorable in the end.
GO0D LUCK !!!!!♥

♥ I got mine today.
My mom also got hers.haha. but I thought it hurt. And my mom did also. But it didnt hurt terribly bad. The procedure takes like 10 seconds but the pain lasts like 3 seconds. But its totally worth it.
