If the classic gift for a girl to give a guy is jewelry, what's the classic gift to give a boy?
Not something huge or extravagant, but something small and sweet.
Thanks

nice belt
cologne
that's all I can really think of, good luck!
I went out with this guy last night, and I thought things really went great. He kept putting his arms around me, kissing me, holding my hand, etc. We had a really good time, and toward the end of the night he asked me if I wanted to hang out the next night (which would be tonight). So when we were leaving he walked me to my car and kissed me good bye and said he'd text me. So I went home, didn't hear from him all night which I figured would happen because he went out with his friends. I woke up early this morning, and around 12 I still hadn't heard from him, so I texted and asked if he still wanted to get together. He didn't respond. So when I got home around 2, I called, and he'd been sleeping. Alright, no big deal. So I asked if he wanted to get together and said I wanted to see him and he said "I really want to see you as well but I'm pretty busy tonight." Then when I called him around 9, he was just dog-sitting. I don't know what to think. What does this mean? Did he cancel on me or did he just get busy?
I doubt that he was dog-sitting, he probably decided to hang out with his guy friends instead or something to that effect, but in the future it's not a good idea to call him twice and text him once in a day. I understand that you called the first time around 10 am, which is fine, but after that, let him call you back/chase you. Don't bother calling or texting him for the next three days. If he texts you within the next three days, act like you may be busy. This will want him to chase you and think about you. After this then hang out with him.
Good luck :)

My Boss has always been really rude with me from the beginning, and now I'm on the verge of being fired soon. I just think I should resign from the job because I feel terrible by the end of my workshift (please read my additional notes, so I can explain in detail).
If I were you I would quit your job for a number of reasons.
1. It's too much stress on you for whatever you are doing that isn't satisfying what she wants. (I'm not saying you are doing anything wrong, but boy is your boss a bitch)
2. After having my first job, I was in your same position with one of my assistant managers. He would scream at my coworkers and make them cry during their shift. They didn't do anything wrong! It would be little things such as a wrong drink came out of the bar and it wouldn't even be there fault (it was the bartender's fault) eventually this particular assistant manager got fired because my coworkers called the corporation of my business to complain.
3. You are going to need recommendations when you are older! Based on your story, your boss is not going to give you one.
4. It sounds like she will fire you soon, making it even harder for you to find a better job.
However, if you really really want to keep your job (which I suggest you don't, you may want to do a couple of things)
1. Call your job's corporation and complain to them about your boss. (Trust me it makes a huge difference)
2. Go in to your work (when your not on the clock and you call before hand to see if you can talk to your boss/manager.) Explain to them that you are trying your best, and what you can do in order for her to be satisfied with what your doing (something to that effect).
Good Luck!
so i'm very interested in the whole, giving a BJ thing, at least just once!
i know many girl don't like it but i just want to experience it once. and i know people are always like "OMG I DONT EVEN KNOW HOW, WHAT SHOULD I DO!!?" and honestly reading about how to do it is definately not going to help..
i've told guys before, i dont know how! and they're just always like, it's easy just do what youuu want.
and i'm like no awkward, like i wouldn't even know what to do, how to do it but i was just wondering, does it come natural?
by the way i'm 19. female.
just curious :)
I do think it is natural, there's some techniques, but it is the same steps. The only thing that every girl knows is to not use teeth.
But I noticed that men cum more when you focus on the head of his penis and actually wrap your tongue around it. Other then that you just go up and down and put your hand on the base of his penis.

hi! i am a male of 20 and i have a very nice girlfriend who is very satisfying in sex and otherwise too. she knows that males love to have oral sex and i d too and so she does ti for me. but i have never done the same for her , if u know what i mean , means i have never given her some tongue action down there. although i want to do it but i am afraid how would it feel like.. i am afraid that it might make me feel a bit gross means i dont know how would it taste like and all. its not anything related to hygein. she has it very clean and nicely shaved up but still i dont know what to do... any helps...
I was afraid, as a girl, that I would have a weird taste, etc, but actually when I asked my boyfriend at the time what it tastes like he said it tastes like nothing or if it did, slight salt-like taste. Just stimulate her cl*t with your tongue and if you are really comfortable just slide your tongue in and out of her vagina.
Is there anything you can use as lubricant for sex, especially anal, that can be found around a house? Ive heard that some stuff can cause an infection or what ever but i really dont want to buy lube so is there anything safe i can use?
You can use canola oil I heard, saliva, baby cream, vaseline, just be careful what you use.

Hi,
I am a 17f. Theres this guy I met and have known for several months. He is 18 and he is the absolute sweetest guy ever, which is why I like him. We have hung out a few nights and cuddled a little. The problem is, I know he has another girl that he feels strongly for. He told me about her and hes told me he loves me, but its not the same love that he has for this other girl. Then he tells me later that he just loves me. He also said he wants to kiss me to see if theres 'a spark', I didnt think that would be right so I didnt let him. I dont want to get closer to him, expecially knowing he has another girl. Everyone thinks we are dating and I keep telling them NO WE ARE NOT. I think I really like him, Im just unsure. I think hes unsure as well. He makes me feel like I have never felt before, but I can't help but think that he will end up ditching me or I might find someone better.. you know? I told him we should just be friends..deep inside I want it to be more;I am sure he does too but..yeah. I have never dated before, cuz all the other guys I know are losers and just want sex. I want it to be right. I am not the kind of girl that dates just anybody for the hell of it. Please tell me what you think, Just be friends or.. ?
Trust me, he's putting on a mask for you. Every girl has been through this. The guy will say and do anything (pay for your meal, etc), but knowing he has another girl on the side, he would just do the same to you if you guys ever got close. In the long run it's not worth it, because then you will end up developing more feelings for him. You said that you never dated before, date a lot more to find the prince, but this is a frog, and he will say anything to get you into his pants.
I am looking to get good grades this year in school. Usually I am an A-B student but I'd like to try to make straight As this year in school. I was hoping that somebody has some tips for getting better grades, or maybe even a top 10 ways list to get straight As. Anything would help though, really.
Well, just graduating high school this past year, I can definitely give you advice. I am actually a C student, but I ended up getting A's without trying very hard here's why
1. After school hours, the teacher knows that you really care about that class
2. Ask questions, that shows your paying attention and you are serious about the class
3. Ask the teacher how they are doing, how their placing their fantasy football teams (eg) because then if your on a boarder line between B+ A- they will give you the A- because you are a nice person (trust me :)
4. Don't procrastinate, I know it is so tempting, but just right down goals you have, in this case, receiving A's and look at them if you start feeling unfocused, and if you do, have cheese and crackers (weird, I know, but their is some chemical in the cheese that keeps you more steady and focused)
5. Come in with a positive attitude to class, and talk to your teacher about the next chapter you are learning, before you learn it, they will KNOW that you are a committed student.
6. Make a schedule. (Yeah your probably thinking, that you won't stick with it, but try once a week to stick with it) During the next few weeks, your brain will automatically do your schedule on another day and then add it on to another day, etc, etc.
7. Look online for other opinions or resources (just don't use their ideas), but in English class if you are reading a poem and don't understand it, try to guestimate what they are talking about, why you thought that, and then see what others think about it and why and explain your reflection to your teacher
Good Luck! :)
ok well im a guy 18'ys old, was just on msn to one of my girl mates and the conversation went from theme parks to sex some how. pah.. but what ever, we got on to the subjct of how big is average/small/big for a penis? she asked me how big i was but i wasnt gonna tell her :3 haha
thanks
...She would have to find that out for her self somtime
An average guy's unerect penis will be about 5 1/2 inches
An average guy's erect penis will be about 6-7 inches.
And just to let you know the average woman's vagina volume is about 4.5 inches.
"It's not the size that matters, it's how you handle it" ;)
okkkay so 4 days ago I gave my boyfriend a blowjob. It wasn't his first He'd gotten blowjobs before but He's still a virgin. But anyways Now I have a small cold sore in the corner of my mouth WHAT COULD THIS BE FROM ! ?
could I have gotten a disease from it ?
HELLLLPP !
pleaaaase & Thank You (:
Don't worry the same thing happened for me, it takes about two weeks to heal (make sure you use orajel or some sort of cold sore medication) Also after taking sex education, STDs don't show up for another six weeks after the sexual activity that happened. Everyone gets coldsores it's nothing unusual even though it is considered "a form of herpes", but even babies get cold sores. So like I said, just use some orajel and don't pick at it, or else it will scar, and you will be in good shape. :)
What is the deal with people talking about Helen Keller and stuff? Who in the world is Helen Keller? I mean, it's in that one song by 3OH!3 and I'm just confused. Maybe Helen Keller is not a person but a thing? What is Helen Keller then? I'm sick and tired of not knowing and I feel so stupid.
Oh, and speaking of the 3OH!3 song ("Don't Trust Me")...how do you do the Helen Keller?
Helen Keller was a woman who was both blind and deaf

i have been going out with my bf.for a while and hes been active before me many times. any way my question is when i want to give him a hand job he wont let me touch his penis like i rub it outside of his boxers ive tried going in and he like pulls my hand away it pisses me off he doesnt know that thou. like i tried asking and hes like i dont like the mes? and when im going to give him head he has to put a condom on i havnt done it in a while b.c he promiced id get to try witout it on so we havnt done it i asked if i could like taste his cum and hes like no its gross im like bitch fingering me is gross. ive never tasted it and i want to im sick of condoms man and his underwear makes things less exciting like and when we were going to have sex where he didnt have a condom hes like no im not going to cum in you dude way to make me horny and stop. and we tried two seconds wit out one (GREAT) and he wont do it again P.S. im on birth control... weve talked about it and shit and he still puts one on wat do i do to make him change his ways pleaseee.
Well you said that he has been active many times before you. So maybe he has some sort of STD that he does not want you to contract and does not want you to know. That is the only thing I could possibly think of.

[edit] why are you rating me a 3
I need some unique ideas on ways to ask a girl to prom! Please help ASAP!
K I'm going to be blunt, but all the answers sound wayy to complicated. The best tastiest and simple way is to buy a big mrs. Fields cookie and have it say in icing prom?
I've been taking protein shakes for a while now, mostly whey protein, and occassionaly this new creatine product that I take before workouts called cytonox.
If there are any nutritionists on this website... what would be the best product overall for after workouts, as in what's the healthiest decision amongst the protein shakes out there. And also what's the best product overall for creatine based products?
.
Does it look Really Really fake ? or orange ? or does it look natural ?
I have gotten spray tans before, one just a couple of weeks ago. People in my school noticed I got a spray tan, but honestly, I thought it looked good, besides the fact that it was kinda blotchy (but I didn't rub in the stuff very well) There's three types of levels. I have gone with a level 2, so if you are considering a spray tan, I would recommend a level 1.
when cooking instant noodles, why does it matter if you wait until the water is boiling to add both the flavoring and noodles in?
I always put regular tap water in and microwave it (2 min), it still tastes as good as it would if you waited for the water to boil.

When I look in the mirror, I hate what I see. I think I am one of the most disgusting looking people on this planet. The boys in my school don't make this any better either. One day during a class I was fixing my eye make up and my teacher was like "Don't do that in here, save that for you're time. You're pretty without the make up anyway." and on of the boys made a comment that really, really hurtful remark and still does to this day it hurts, which was "HA NO SHE'S NOT" That was one of the meanest comments I have ever recieved, and it makes me cry.
My best friend is commonly agreed as the prettiest girl in my grade, not just by us freshmen but by everyone else too! When I stand next to her, I feel so gross. I hate it, honestly I do. I used to cut and I'm trying so dearly hard to refrain from it, but each day the temptation gets harder and harder to resist. I know I'm skinny also, but I feel like an ogre to put it in simpliest terms. I feel like I'm overgrown and horribly fat. It's disgusting.
I'm on pills right now for controling Bi-Polar, and that makes me feel even worse about myself. Like I'm incredibly "fucked up" and I have to take some stupid pill to be a normal human being. It makes me cry at night. I can't help it though.
Anerexia and cutting never looked so good. I'm heading in the wrong direction and typing this had made me cry, showing how much it affects me. I sometimes wish I would die, and get it over with, so all the sadness will disappear. When I'm going to take my pills, sometimes I consider taking them all so it would all be over.
Please someone help, I'm loosing all hope in life, and I don't know what to do.
I have been in the same footsteps (those type of comments, situations, etc) The fact of the matter is, guys at that age will act like that for attention or sometimes they want YOU to pay attention to them. For over a year now I have seen a psychiatrist and psychologist to help me get my life back together because I can't stand the way I look. I see pictures of other girls and my friends because I wish I had blonde hair & blue eyes. The fact of the matter is I don't. I also have to take medication so my "bi-polar (ism)" isn't as bad as it was. Some of it has to do with hormones. My advice to you is to see a therapist, that really put my life back into shape and I'm sure it will have the same affect on you. Also when you wake up in the morning, I find it really helps if you look in the mirror and say positive remarks like I look gorgeous today. Soon enough you will actually start to believe it. It will take time so be patient, but feel it, even if it is just for a second, and your day will become a lot better.

is that black eyshadow good pigment or quality? if not which black eyeshadow [brand] is?
I have the same exact eye shadow, only in purple. It looks dark, but when you put it on it looks so much lighter. I was really disappointed because when I put on a dark purple eye shadow, it looked like I threw on some child eye shadow on me that was a weird mix between a dark pink and light purple, try a different brand. ps, I had to throw my eye shadow away cause it looked so bad.

I would really like to find a bathing suit that is not skimpy...
I would need the bottoms to fit like shorts, b/c even though I shave my bikini line...it's just not cute down there lol
and I want the top to come down to the middle of my belly.
It has to be a two-piece.
Thank you to anyone who can send me a link to a bathing suit as I've described!

a bottom thats a little flirtier
http://www2.victoriassecret.com/collection/?cgname=OSSWMTNKZZZ&cgnbr=OSSWMTNKZZZ&rfnbr=157
(unfortuantly though i havent come across any of the type of bottoms you're talking about, but you could possibly mix and match with jcrew)

(except on this you can adjust the bottom to be a "hot short" but you cant adjust the top for it to become a takini)
you can try gap, target and old navy
but i was just on there and havent found anything...yet
ill edit my answer if i find more =)
Okay so 17/f
I want to be like a sexy vampire
But i'm afraid all the good costumes that will actually fit me..i'm small..are all sold out at stores! I'm going to look tomorrow but if i can't find a good vampire costume..what kind of like outfit can i buy thats not at a halloween store? I know i can buy like a slip but i don't want it to be noticable that its not a real halloween costume. I'd buy like a vampire cape to go over it and like high socks and vampire teeth..thats the easy part.
if you have ANY ideas pleeaase let me know!!!!
wear a short black skirt and a red hot corset (they have good ones at Fredericks of Hollywood) as far as a cape goes umm a black (im thinking velvet would look the best) hoodie and possibly red or black sleeve cuffs. Here is a great site where you can get some ideas
