Sexual urges, but I don't want to. What do I do?
There is a guy at work that flirts with me and I flirt back; we joke around and take the Mickey out of each other. I just want to have sex with him! I see him and I want him to have his arms around me! I'm in my early 20's and I'm a virgin. I'm a virgin because I haven't met the right person and I'm not ready yet, but with him I just really want to have sex... But I don't want to because I know he's not the right person. What do I do?! I've never been like this before.
8 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agoAre my skin problems related to a terrible diet?
I was juicing for 10 days, lost weight and I felt really good. My skin was clear and my sleeping patterns balanced out. My juice was made of all vegetables, so it was very clean. I even had the detox symptoms in the first 4 days.
On the tenth day I binged, and I've been binging for 3 weeks since my juicing. I've come up with a rash, and I'm breaking out a lot more than what I use to when I was menstruating.
Is it because I was eating so clean, got rid of toxins etc. and now I'm reacting to all the bad foods I've been eating?
(I am going to the doctor about it, I just want to hear about an opinion sooner)
1 AnswerSkin Conditions8 years agoWhy am I sick after juicing for 9 days then eating on the 10th day?
I've been juicing and I've been feeling amazing, I have so much energy, my sleeping schedule is finally normal and I'm losing weight quite noticeably.
My plan was to do it for 40 days, but on every 10th day, have something to eat and I did just that yesterday. The thing is, I thought "ooh I can have junk today. What's one day going to do?"
I made a big sugary breakfast of a few pancakes a hash brown and orange juice. After I ate the hash brown, I immediately had a headache, so I didn't eat the pancakes. I went to bed because of the headache and when I woke up I went to the city central market and bought my favourite won ton soup and a taro pearl milk tea. I came home, still not feeling as good as I had been for the past 9 days (albeit the first 3 were headachy, tiring and filled with intense cravings) and it was late in the day so I had the won ton soup for dinner instead of an elaborate lamb shank dish I was going to make. I was still so full from the hash brown but ate it anyway.
Today is the 11th day and I'm going to continue juicing. But today, I'm sick. Headachy, tired, sad and grumpy and an upset stomach. Is it because I got rid of all the toxins and crap in my body and then reintroduced it? What is exactly happening to my body right now?

2 AnswersDiet & Fitness8 years agoI've been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder. What now?
Everything links to this disorder for me. Fears of abandonment, self-injury, suicidal, indecisiveness in my path with life and career, impulsive eating/spending money. I idealize then devalue people I know, I sometimes feel like I don't exist at all, if I feel good I feel really good and if I feel bad I feel really bad and these moods tend to last only hours every day to every second or third day.
I really dont know what to do. Now I know I have this and everything is out on the plate, I just dont know. I'm currently very suicidal with feelings of no hope for my future. I wont continue therapy and I wont take medication.
4 AnswersMental Health8 years agoHow to stop strangers IM-ing me on Skype when privacy settings a set for them not to?
I am getting a load of so-called "captains" and "sargent's" IM-ing me, asking me to be their friend on skype. I have changed my privacy settings so that only people in my contact list can contact me. So, why is this still happening? How can I stop this from continuing to happen?
I use Windows, if that is any help.

1 AnswerOther - Internet8 years agoFamily weightloss competition - We all have a different amount of weight to lose; how can I score it?

1 AnswerDiet & Fitness8 years agoThoughts?: Have spontaneous sex to not die a virgin.?
With someone i know from work, or quickly befriend someone at a bar? Commit suicide later on same night.
6 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agoMen, how would you feel if a girl had sex with you because she didn't want to die a virgin?
Basically uses you for sex, to lose her virginity and you found out she commited suicide later on that night, at her own house. You weren't in a relationship with her, just a small friendship outside of work. How would you feel?
1 AnswerSingles & Dating8 years agoWhat am I supposed to do with my life if I can't have children?
Im 21 and I don't want to have children until I'm 30-35 years old; what if I can't? Ive had signs of infertility and I have a disease which can cause infertility too. I'll definitely be getting this checked at the doctors next time.
In the meantime however, it's got me thinking. What am I supposed to do with my life in my 30s-40s if I'm not going to have children? That's usually the age of bringing up children. What will I do?
5 AnswersOther - Health8 years agoI'm quite worried that I have symptoms of premature menopause. Should I continue panicking?
I am 21 and I have had Hashimotos Thyroiditis since I was 7 years old. The past 5 periods have been irregular. One will be on time, the next will be 10 days late, the next a few days late, this time I am coming up to a week late. My periods have been light the past 5 weeks too.
Im going to bed at 11pm, falling asleep around 4:30am (I did have depression and insomnia in my teens and I've usually had bouts of it for the past 3 years). My worry for premature menopause came to me yesterday when my head and shoulders suddenly got very hot. I jumped to the conclusion of a hot flash and now I'm terribly worried,
I want children one day...
2 AnswersWomen's Health8 years agoSpending my 21st birthday alone. What should I do?
I grew up in NZ and I currently live in Australia, so the 'woo-I-can-drink' moment happened 3 years ago, plus I don't drink.
I'm a great baker, so I'm wondering if I should make myself an awsome cake and then get high, then eat it while watching movies and play PS3. I haven't smoked in about a year... I just want to treat myself.
Any more ideas? I have no friends.
7 AnswersOther - Holidays8 years agoWhat would living on 500 calories for 20 weeks do to a woman who is 80lbs/37kg overweight?
I am a female who is 21 years old, 5"1/156cm tall and I weigh 190lbs/87kg. I also have Hashimotos Thyroiditis (a disease which causes an under-active thyroid) so according to my own research I need to deduct 200 calories off my BMR. So, at the moment I have a BMR of 1460 calories.
I am currently active. I do split shifts of walking which adds up to 2.5hrs per day. I do light weights for 15 minutes everyday and I go for a leisurely bicycle ride everyday. Plus my job as a waitress tends to get my heart rate up at a busy restaurant.
Which this exercise plus eating only 500 calories per day and weighing 87kg (I'll have to exercise more as I lose weight to keep the weightloss steady) I should be burning approx 2342 calories per day. When I'm 80kg I'll be burning 2320 calories per day. Every 5 kilos I lose I need to step up the exercise so I have lost at least 25 kilos in the next 20 weeks.
Does this sound like it'll work? I know it's an unhealthy route, but I'm desperate to lose my weight for a number ones party = glamorous dresses at a black tie event.
It's not like I'll starve either; I have excess fat that needs to be rid of.
So will it work, yes or no? And evaluate. Thanks a lot!
7 AnswersDiet & Fitness8 years agoPain after masturbating. What could it be?
I just masturbated. I don't insert anything. I feel a pain in my left and right hips in the front. Especially my right. I am due for my period in 3 days. It's probably just ovulation and I have nothing to worry about, right?

2 AnswersOther - Entertainment8 years agoHow long should I exercise each body part to NOT get bulky but slim and toned?
I have 20 weeks to lose 20 kilos. I have changed my diet and lazy habits around, I'm just worried if I over do the weights or squats I'll get bulky which is what I do not want.
I am doing 45 minutes of jogging 5-6 times per week plus walks whenever I can. I am also on my feet for work as a busy waitress. I'm trying to say is that I know I need cardio to burn fat all over. My question is for toning up and getting slim, toned limbs.
For total times, I am spending 15 minutes on leg exercises (particularly calves, thighs, inner thighs and butt), 15 minutes on arms exercises (using 2kg hand weights). I wont get bulky will I? Could I do more? or should I do less?
Thanks.
2 AnswersDiet & Fitness8 years agoIs this considered sexual child abuse? Or am I being ridiculous?
I've just watched the movie 'Perks of Being a Wallflower' and because there is reference to sexual child abuse in the movie, my mind flicked back to when I was 10 (I'm 20). Anytime sexual child abuse is mentioned, I always think of when I was 10 years old. I've always felt uncomfortable about the memory and I remember being uncomfortable at the time.
When I was 10 years old, I went with a school friend to her Auntie and Uncles holiday home. Her Auntie is a close friend of my mums. My friend, her Dad and I went to a restaurant near the holiday home and walked to the secluded table in the corner where everyone else was sitting. I stood next to my friends Uncle whose back was to the corner and so was mine, so I guess no one saw... he started groping and squeezing my bum, then rested his hand on it for a little while. It only lasted for about 15 seconds. I remember feeling uncomfortable and knowing what he did was wrong, but being 10 years old I didn't know WHY it was wrong.
A few of years ago, my Sister was showing my Mum some photos on Facebook of her said close friend. I joined in and looked at a few photos. A picture of said close friends husband came up and it was with him in a bath tub with 2 children. It looked as if he was nude; who knows if he was wearing bottoms or not? I immediately thought of when I was 10 and said "that is really odd, why is he in there with the children?... why is this photo even on Facebook?" my sister just looked at me cringing and said "I know". This was just something that made me think that maybe this guy is sick in the head.
After watching 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower', I felt the need to say something, so I brought it up to my Mum. I didn't think it affected me so much until I started bursting into tears. She didn't say specifically that it was sexual child abuse, but said that what he did was wrong. Mum then asked me "Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" and I said that I felt extremely uncomfortable about it. Mum then went on to tell me that he is a strange man and that she has never trusted him. She told me a couple of stories about him that were very sexual and it makes me feel sick that someone like him touched me. The stories plus that photos makes me think that maybe he is a sexual predator/paedophile.
I had forgotten about that time at the restaurant and I had my first thought of it again when I was about 15. I wonder if my depression, eating disorder, social anxiety, self harm, not liking being touched at all, trust issues and not wanting a relationship is a direct result? I've had depression and social anxiety since I was 12, self harmed since I was 10, my eating disorder is only recent and Ive never liked being touched. Even when I was a child (before 10) I hated to be hugged even by my parents. Even when they hugged, it made me feel uncomfortable and I use to physically push them apart. To this day, seeing people being affectionate makes me feel incredibly uncomfortable... so maybe I had issues before the incident, I don't know, but could it have worsened it? I mean, these mental illnesses came out of no where like there was no reason to get them. I've had an alright life growing up, and nothing out of the ordinary that would give me these things, except school. But this just makes me wonder.
Is what he did to me child sexual abuse? Or am I thinking into it too hard? It's driving me mad!
5 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships8 years agoWhere can I learn Norwegian in Norway?
I would like to learn Norwegian in Norway because I want to work there as a nurse once I am fluent. I'll also like the course to be recognised by the government so I could later then apply for permanent residence (Needing at least 300 hours of Norwegian language course). Where can I learn for free? Free would be best, but if I need to pay that would be okay too.
Takk!

1 AnswerOther - Europe8 years agoI hate being loved. Why?
I don't like to be liked or loved. If I'm getting along with a guy and I may like him as a friend, but even if I liked him more than that and I find out he likes me back I immediately don't like him anymore.
It has nothing to do with "chasing".
For new years, I was watching fireworks with everyone from work and this guy work mate was resting his arm on my shoulder then eventually he rested his chin. I was so uncomfortable. If I wasn't to afraid of hurting other peoples feelings, I would have gladly told him "can you stop fkucing touching me". I obviously really don't like to be touched.
Since then, I was told he likes me and we were going to go to the movies this week, but now I don't want to have anything to do with him now that I know he likes me.
Ive never been in a relationship and nothing had happened to me in the past to not like being touched. I want to fall in love day to be be loved back and not hate him for it. Why am I like this?
