This is an extremely long story - Basically about 7 months ago now, a boy that I considered a friend made up a disgusting rumour about me, saying we got together at a party, and that I cheated on my boyfriend. This didn't happen, and I have no idea why he made it up, it completely ruined my last few weeks at secondary school, as everyone believed him - as he's popular. But my boyfriend and best friend always stuck by me. Me & my boyfriend suffered verbal abuse from a lot of people for months, I hoped it would all stop when we went to sixth form - we're at different ones, unfortunately I am at the same one as the dick who made up the rumour - who has always been obsessed with me, and is very jealous of my boyfriend - which is why he caused this problem for me. He is continuing to tell people at our new schools, even people at my boyfriends school, so my boyfriend is getting abuse and made fun of because of it, people where I work know about it due to the boy knowing them. Will it stop?

Hey, so I'm going on holiday soon to Spain, for two weeks and unfortunately it is likely that I will come onto my period during the end of the holiday. Obviously, I don't want this to effect my time, I still want to swim, and have fun but also feel totally comfortable too. I've tried to use a tampon once when I first started my period at the age of 12 and found it really difficult and painful, as I was tense. However, I'm 16 now, and am no longer a virgin, so I'm wondering if it will probably hurt less? Does it hurt to remove the tampon? Once it is inside does it feel uncomfortable? I just want to be able to enjoy myself and feel no worry about leakages. I'm thinking of using the Tampax Pearl tampons, as from what I've read they seem good for beginners. I'd appreciate any feedback about them, or other types? I'm from the Uk, so obviously only UK brands please. Any information would be much appreciated. Thanks! x

Hey, so basically I'm going on holiday soon to Spain for two weeks. I recently got an iPhone 5, which I want to take with me, mainly for the camera but also for music. But obviously I don't want to get heavily charged - As this has happened before with previous phones. I'm just wondering if I keep my phone on Air plane mode for the whole holiday, will that stop me from being able to receive texts/phone calls, and from being able to use the Internet? If so, does this mean I can not get charged any extra? Also, the villa I am going to be staying in has FREE Wifi, can I connect to wifi while on Air plane mode? When at the Villa, and iMessage my boyfriend who also has an iPhone 5, as this is done through wifi, so they won't be any extra charge will there? Thanks very much.

So, I'm going to have to cut a very very long story short. I'm sixteen and I'm doing my exams at the moment so fortunately I have left my **** hole of a school, but do have to go in for exams etc. During the last week at school some bitchy girls in my year spread a disgusting and untrue rumour about me, that they were told by a boy who I considered to be my 'friend'. He had told them that at a party we 'got together' and that I cheated on my boyfriend with him - I didn't, I can assure you, nothing happened. I don't know why he has made this up and allowed these disgusting allegations to be made about me, I've been really hurt and felt so down the past few weeks due to this. However my close friends and my boyfriend no that it is not true - Which is what really matters, I can deal with the people I hate believing it, why should I care they mean nothing to me. However this boy who made up the rumour will not admit that it is a lie, and he is continuing to make situations worse for me and my boyfriend - which is not fair. I have blocked him on facebook, but he keeps commenting on things that I can see saying mean things and calling my boyfriend a 'c**t'. This outrageous and I can't stand if, he shouts things at him when we walk past him and I hate it. I know we've left school but I still do see him and I'm worried that he'll continue.. We've got prom soon and I'm scared that he will say more things, particularly at the party afterwards! I'm terrified, and I won't it to stop. He can say what he wants to me but not to my boyfriend! He's a liar and he won't stop lying till he gets what he wants.. Whatever that may be. I need some real advice not bullsh*t advice.. Please help me! How can I fix things myself? Should I say something to him? What can I do.. I'm scared of what he might do in rerun. Even though I know this never happened - he seems convinced it did.. And I don't know what lengths he would go to, to get my boyfriend to believe it! Help!

Hey, so I'm really confused about this, I'm sixteen years old, 5'2 and around 8 stone (112 pounds). My measurements are; bust - 32 inches, waist - 28 inches and hips - 33 inches. I've always considered myself as therefore petite, which I believe I am. I'm often told that I'm slim and have a nice slender figure. However when I've been researching recently it seems that 28 inches for waist is quite large? More like a medium size? While my bust is a small size and my hips an extra small size. Even though my waist is the smallest measurement it appears to actually be large? Is it too big? I don't see how it can be large when I do have a slim figure.. I'm usually a size 6-8 in UK sizing. Is my waist too large? Should I try to lose some weight? Thank you.

Planning on getting my helix pierced in a couple of weeks time, with a needle at a piercing studio. I've got four lobe piercings on each ear already, just wondering if the pain is a lot more or relatively similar? Because obviously my 4th piercing was quite high up on my ear so the pain was more then the 1st and 2nd as the skin gets a lot tougher. Is the healing time really long? And is it a difficult piercing to take care of? As I've heard it is always getting caught and basically being a pain :/ I really want the piercing and I'm sure I will get it. I'm just looking for any information really? Thanks! x

I'm planning on getting my fourth ear lobe piercing done on both ears, hopefully his Saturday. My other three ear lobe piercings were done with a gun at Clairea I know they're is a lot of negativity towards Claire's but all my piercings have been fine. However I'm thinking that this fourth piercing will probably be closer to cartilage, so is it safer to go with a needle? I'm not bothered about the pain particularly I'm sure it will be fine. Providing that it's not like 10x more painful with a needle :L When I had my third ear piercing done it did hurt slightly more and felt hot and stang, I think this was probably because it was closer to cartilage and so the use of a gun was more painful. Should I get this fourth one done with a needle? Thanks.

Hey, so I'm just interested in finding out my body shape/type. I'm sixteen years old and petite - I'm only 5'2. I've taken my measurements and my bust is - 32 inches. Waist is - 28 inches and my hips are - 33 inches. I weigh 8 stone, I am slim in shape, however I do think that I have curves as my waist is the smallest part - so I do go in and then come out. I have got quite a sizeable bum too! For my size! I'm usually a size 6-8 in UK clothes. I'm just curiosity as to what body shape I am.. I am small on top with a small waist and I do come out at the hips slightly which led me to think I was a pear shape - But I don't actually come a lot, as my hip size is only 33 inches which is actually quite small. So am I just a 'boyish' shape? :/ thanks. x

Hey, so I'm thinking of getting my rook pierced. I'm just wondering about anyone else's experiences? The pain? Any information really. I'm aware that it is quite thick cartilage therefore I'm not expecting it to be easy.. :L I have got 3 lobe piercings on each ear and my belly button pierced too. Do you think I'd cope? :L I seem to be relatively good with pain, it's more the anticipation that gets to me, but when I have it done it tends to be a lot better and easier than I thought it would be. Let me know about any information, thanks!

I'm planning on getting my fourth lobe piercing done. Before you're all like 'omg Claire's is awful they're disgusting.. You shouldn't get it there.. Blah blah' I don't care :L so please only answer if you're going to be nice. I've had all 3 other lobe piercings done at Claire's and they've all been fine. I'm just wondering if they will do a fourth? :L thanks!

Okay, so it's a long story, if I can't include everything then don't hesitate to ask me former information. I'm sixteen and I've always had problems with a certain group of girls at school in my year, who have consistently put me down, intimidated me and quite honestly made my past two years at school a misery. My mum knows about the trouble I've had with them and so does my school, however to be honest they haven't really don't anything about it! Anyway, I do everything I can to avoid these girls, I don't talk about them, I just ignore them - like I should. However about a week ago now I was told by a friend that one of these girls had been spreading a rumour about it me. This rumour was that I got 'fingered' (I hate that word) by another boy at my school who is my friend, while I was going out with my boyfriend - So basically, that I cheated on my boyfriend. This rumour is completely untrue, and I immediately messages this girl asking her to stop and just leave me alone - We only had one more week at school, untill study leave! She replied with a disgusting message accusing me of cheating and being a '****' and that apparently the boy who I cheated with told her about the situation. This made no sense to me, as this boy was my friend. So I had no idea why he made this up. These girls rule the school and pretty much everyone in the year. So everyone believes these girls and the boy who told them the lie. My boyfriend knows that it is completely untrue and so do my close friends. I'm tired of having to justify myself to people, I know he truth and that's the end, as long as the people I care about believe me then that's fine. I was quite happy to drop the whole thing. However this boy - my 'friend' who started the rumour won't stop contacting me, asking me to talk with him. Understandably I'm not interested in taking to him I just want him to leave me alone! He is making me feel uncomfortable, I'm scared to look at my phone incase he has text me. I want him to stop.
