Yeah, I can’t imagine why they would, unless they have some sort of medical condition.
Listen, if you’re worried about being healthy, that’s one thing, excersizing and eating right is always good! But don’t talk about it in terms of losing pounds, that doesn’t make any sense.

Why do you need to lost 10 pounds, did your doctor tell you that?

an x?

try again, don’t give up too easily. you might as well put your pride on the line instead of wondering what if for the rest of your life!

the only way to talk to her is to talk to her… it’s not as scary as it seems once you get started. If you’re nervous then plan it out. Ask her to hang out some time… it doesn’t have to be a date right away, but the more you get to know her the easier things will be. Ask her to skate with you sometime, or listen to music if you both enjoy that, or just go get some pizza with friends…

I agree completely. A relationship can work even though people disagree about things… even important issues. But if he isn’t supporting who you are, then the relationship is not going to work.
Let him know how serious this is for you. Maybe if he knows you’re not just arguing with him about ’silly liberal causes’ but you’re actually evaluating your relationship (and whether to continue it) then he’ll realize that this is serious.

is there a planned parenthood around you? just because they often have a lot of resources, and often have female doctors and can help you figure stuff out. also check out:

are you sexually active?

if you’re 15 then pretty soon you’ll have to have your first gynecologist appointment anyway. (Well, when you’re 18 I think is when it’s recommended or whatever).
They kind of suck, and it’s weird, but trust me it’s worth it to be healthy! Plus, it sounds really painful. Can you talk to your parents/guardians about it? They can help you find a female doctor so that it won’t be so awful, maybe.

I know how much this sucks, but you have to see a doctor RIGHT AWAY! If it helps, this is probably one of the more minor things your doctor has had to deal with, nowhere near the most embarassing. If you want to go to your doc armed with some information check out webMD.com maybe.
But seriously, these are very bad symptoms, and it’s probably either something serious that should be looked at or something that can be easily fixed with a cream or something!

no tongue first kiss. absolutely. but if you start making out, you may way to add tongue, if you feel it’s right.
The most important thing is to relax. Think of how funny and awkward it is, and then just laugh at it and let it go. If you like this girl, your body (well, mouth) will take over!

hey, can i ask you where you live? I’m just interested in which state has such an awesome gsa!

[quote Anonymous]im just sooo confused so will someone please answer 1 of the following questions
1- dont you think president push had a real reason for going into iraq
—– twin towers attacked in 1993, american embassy bombing 1997, twin towers attacked again in 2001 what would be next if we had not gone in and put the terrorists out of power who were not only a threat to us but to their own citizens
2- Why should barack obama even deserve to run for president
—– rookie senator, and no accomplishments to his name- dont you think we should let him proove himself in senate before we fall for his amazing ability for public speaking???[/quote]

1) Iraq was not involved in the twin towers attack. That’s why we didn’t invade them first, even though Bush wanted to. But he had no excuse.
But I DO think that terrorism is a huge issue in our world today, and something we should be figuring out how to deal with. But because it’s not the same as normal warfare, just waging a ‘war’ on the terrorists doesn’t help. The number of terrorist attacks hasn’t gone down since we started our wars, it’s gone up. And MANY more people hate us now, and think that we are racist and war-mongering.
I think that education, aid, and promoting human rights (at home and abroad) is the best and only real way to keep our country safe from terrorists.
2) I do think that Obama has less experience than other candidates. But let’s face it, how much experience do you need? You need to have held public office, which he has. And any president is surrounded by a cabinet and individuals. Obviously he’s not going to know everything about everything… no one does. The most important things for a president to have are:
a) some experience
b) a moral code
c) a willingness to listen to voters
d) a willingness to compromise
e) creativity
f) optimism, hope, and a desire to better the nation.

I think he has these things. Although, as previously stated, I voted for Clinton, I would be genuinely happy to vote for him if he wins the nomination.

Um, another idea for role-playing would be a simple coming-out scene, to parents or friends who are less than sympathetic.
Or a scene of a person who is gay but in the closet, and how they deal with people asking them who they have a crush on.

for me the issue here isn’t your sexuality… it’s that you’re in love with someone who’s not your boyfriend. AND he’s homophobic, and i think that will really hurt your relationship if you want to be open with him. it sounds like you need to break up with him, no matter whether or not you end up with another boy or girl.
Eventually you should tell the girl that you like her, just to get it off your chest. But you don’t want to be trying to break up her and her boyfriend, so it does seem a little pointless to tell her that you like her if she’s already involved.
Coming out is so hard, you’re incredibly brave for being true to yourself. Your true friends will love you for who you are.
good luck!
