  • Yellowish-Brown Discharge? HELP?!?

    Sorry, I don't want to sound gross but I really need an opinion..

    About a week ago, I lost my virginity to my boyfriend. We didn't use a condom, but I am on the pill and he pulled out. Since then, I have been having a lot of brownish-yellow discharge. I am about to have my period in a week so i think it could be from that.

    I have no rash or itching or anything. And it isn't clumpy or bubbly. It's like mucus.

    It has a slight odor (like vinegar) but it's not that noticeable.

    Does anyone have any idea what it could possibly be?

    I am in college miles away from home so I cant see my GYN anytime soon. Plus, I don't want my parents to find out.

    Please don't make rude comments or judge me, I'm just very worried and I want advice.

  • What is the difference between "making love" and "having sex"?

    Recently, my boyfriend of three months told me that he wants to "make love" to me. I'm a virgin (and I intend to remain one for a while) and he isn't. I know that he wants sex, but the phrase threw me off since no one says that anymore.

    Whenever we are making out, he says that he "wants me" (and wants to have sex), but recently, he slept over and we cuddled all night (but didn't have sex) and when he woke up, he said he wanted to "make love" to me.

    So my question is: what is the difference between "making love" and "having sex"? Does the mood change between the two?

  • How many documents will 250GB of hard drive space hold?

    Hi.

    I'm a senior in high school & I'm looking into purchasing a net book for school. I just need a basic net book where I can use the internet and type word documents during class (possibly at the same time).

    I have a big Dell laptop at home that I can use to watch movies & do more complicated things. I'm getting a net book simply because it's small & lightweight to carry in school.

    One net book I'm looking into getting has 1GB of RAM & 250GB of hard drive space.

    My questions are : 1) Will 250 GB of hard drive space hold several MS Word / Powerpoint Documents?

    2) Will I be able to run Windows 7? Or do I need to upgrade to 2GB of Ram?

    3) Can I multitask using this net book?

    Please try not to use complicated computer terminology... I really don't understand a lot about computers. Sorry!

    Thank you in advance for the answers!

  • Can they steal my identity?

    I got an email from "Aerie Speaks!", (Aerie is a clothing chain of American Eagle.) The email said that if I took a survey I would get $10 off my next purchase. I was stupid and did the survey. Most of the questions were about what types of clothes I normally purchase, but towards the end they asked for this information: Name, Gender, Address, City, ZipCode.

    Can they steal my identity?!

    I already provided the information. :/

  • Cut myself while shaving. Can i still swim?.. ladies only please?

    I know this is a stupid question & quite embarrassing to ask, but I wanted to ask anyway...

    Today while i was trimming my "bikini area", i accidently cut myself on the outer lip of my vagina. It doesn't hurt and there was very little blood (it stopped bleeding completely now).

    I think I'll be fine but the only thing is I'm going on vacation tomorrow. Can I go in a chlorine pool? I don't want it to get infected. Will it get infected? :/

  • Will a screen protector make a scratch less visible on the iTouch (3rd gen. 32G)?

    I had my iTouch since December (over a half a year) and I never scratched the front screen before. However, that changed yesterday. Yesterday while I was walking down the stairs, I dropped my iPod on my concrete staircase. It left a 7.5 cm diagonal scratch along the top half of the screen. It wasn't very deep, just long.

    Luckily, no severe damage was done. It still works well. And it plays videos well (there wasn't a rainbow line.. like some people mentioned on the internet). The scratch isn't noticeable unless there's a white background or i hold it up at a certain angle.

    It's really annoying though.

    Will an anti glare screen protector minimize the scratch & make it less noticible? Any products that you recommend (cheap please)? Thanks!

  • Could I be an anemic? or hypoglycemic?

    Could I be an anemic? or hypoglycemic?

    For about a year and a half now I've constantly been very sick. I'm a teenager and I've had many previous heath issues (all my life). I've had a heart murmur and I have old mono (aka epstein barr). Because of these two illnesses, ive always had a fast heartbeat, fatigue, and dizziness.

    However, since i've reached puberty it's only gotten worse. I have many symptoms of what i think is anemia but im not entirely sure. I am constantly sick (and it comes out of nowhere. at one minute im fine and the next, i cant even stand i feel so sick and dizzy). Im EXTREMELY pale (or at another extreme where my face will turn beat red, from no activity at all). I get dizzy all the time. I see dark spots in front of my eyes. Other times I'll feel overheated and sick (out of nowhere) and my entire eyesight will go black and I'll feel like im about to faint. (this happened to me so bad that once some woman thought i was blind, because i completely blacked out). Sometimes just standing up makes me feel nauseous. I have a very hard time remembering things (im not sure if thats a sign of anything, but i figured id throw it in anyway). I could go an entire day without eating, because im rarely hungry (and sometimes ill have the extreme where out of nowhere ill feel famished to the point where i must eat or i think ill faint). I can hear my heart pounding in my chest. I have bad headaches. and I CONSTANTLY have terrible back aches, sometimes to the point where i cant even stand up. My period is usually late and very heavy too.

    Im a fairly small person. Im not over or underweight. Ive always been underweight my entire life (not by choice, just because i cant gain weight), but recently, since ive been experiencing health problems i tried to eat better so now im the exact weight i should be for my height.

    I dont have diabetes.

    I tried to ignore these symptoms but they are Really affecting my life now. I dont know if they are just symptoms of the diseases I already have had diagnosed, or something different entirely. I really dont want to see my doctor, because shes not nice at all. But i think im gonna have to.

    Does anyone have any idea what this is?

    Additional Details

    PS im not a vegetarian or vegan...

    AND sorry this is so long!

    i also have kidney problems. (dont know if that matters, but watever.)

  • How do I know If my parents are spying on me (via computer)?**10 pts**?

    Yesterday, I woke up in the middle of the night. I couldn't go back to sleep so I decided to go on my laptop, hoping that staring at computer screen would make my eyes tired (like it usually does) and make me go to sleep faster. In the mean time, I was working on my HOMEWORK (honestly!).

    Granted, I know I shouldn't have been up that late, but i couldn't help it!

    My sleep pattern is really off since summer's over. I need at least one week after school starts for my sleep pattern to go back to normal. But I have off from school today, so i didnt think staying up a little later would be a big problem.

    My dad woke up at like 3:30 am to go use the bathroom and saw that I was on the computer. He started yelling at me and told my mom (a computer technician) to put stuff on my laptop to monitor what I do. He thinks i'm on porn or chat rooms or something. The thought that being on the computer so late would make him think that, actually never crossed my mind.

    Honestly, I did nothing to make them take away my privacy and I do nothing bad on the computer. But my parents are very strict about what I say and do. I dont want to constantly feel like I'm being watched. Especially since I did nothing! I am constantly treated like a prisoner in my own home and I hate it. (And Im a pretty good kid... honors kid, no drugs, never smoked, etc)

    I tried to explain to my parents, what really happened, but they dont listen. I changed my computer password, hoping to lock them out. It is my personal computer. I am the administrator.

    So my question is, is there any way to know (or not know) if they put a computer monitoring software on my computer without my knowledge.?

    Even if you know nothing about computers, please give me your input. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE ME?!

    PS please dont tell me if im under 18 they have every right to do so. I dont want to hear that pitch. Its not fair to do this.

  • Microsoft Office not genuine? MS Office 2007 & Vista?

    Okay, my mom bought MS Office so i know its a genuine copy. I installed it on her computer and mine. I didnt have a problem with it. About 3 weeks ago i got a virus or something and my computer got all messed up, so I system restored it. Now its fine, no problems. Except my MS office keeps saying its not genuine and that it will expire in a few days. What can I do? I dont have the product key anymore.

    I have an older 2003 version of office and i tried to install that one instead, but it doesnt work. im so confused!

    What will happen to my office in x amount of days?

  • Coughing Blood? and Seeing Dark Spots?

    Coughing Blood? and Seeing Dark Spots?

    So about a week ago I had a pain in my ear. I thought it was clogged with ear wax so i used a Qtip and cleaned them both out. They felt better, but every once and a while I'd feel pain in my ears. I ignored it. A few days later I got a bad headache, backache (like REALLY bad), and felt weak. A few days later my throat hurt and I was coughing badly. I was very dizzy and was getting really hot and really cold. I had no fever. Today I coughed up blood with mucus three times. I called the Ears nose and throat doctor but they can't fit me in till tomorrow. What can this be? And can all these symptoms be connected?

    PS for a while I've been seeing black spots in my vision and "smudged" vision. I thought it was because I was overheated (i have a heart problem). Could this be dangerous too?

    Additional Details

    For the second half of the question, i researched it and it sounds like i have "eye floaters", but im not entirely sure. Sometimes I get them when I'm overheated and I get a headache too.

    i dont know if it matters, but im a teenager.

  • Need opinions! Does he like me? or am i just imagining it?

    Okay... (sorry if its long)

    So theres this guy. Ive known him for about two years. We've only been friends for a year, but we've gotten close. We aren't boyfriend and girlfriend (but according to my friends, they think he likes me).

    We tease each other constantly. We make each other laugh. He listens to me and talks to me a lot. He usually IMs me first (but sometimes I talk to him first). He knows me better than I know myself. He accepts me for who I am. He helps me when I need help. He gives me advice. Hes honest with me. He tells me that he likes girls for who they are inside (not outside). He gets along with my friends. He treats me well in front of his friends. I trust him completely. He always finds a way to make me laugh when im down. He compliments me when im sad. He's a gentleman. He opens doors and gives me his jacket. We wrestle and can be a bit physical at times. He's picked me up before so physical contact isnt an issue/. Some times i see him look at me. He laughs at my jokes. He takes my side when i get into arguments. He seems a bit protective of me at times (like when i added a guy i knew over facebook, he said that guy is bad news and was concerned i guess). He is really friendly and sweet.

    We are only friends but I want to be so much more! But im too shy to make the first move and he would be too shy too (if he really did like me). Plus, I dont wanna look stupid if he doesnt like me. And i dont want to ruin our friendship.

    My friends constantly tell me that i'm "in love" with him. (Which theyve never said that about any other guy ive ever liked before.) I think i do love him, but Idk if its even possible considering we are just friends and we are both teenagers.

    So heres my question...

    a. Do you think he likes me? (Please be brutally honest)

    b. Or do you think i'm basically just one of the guys?

    c. Is there any way to make him know how I feel, without me having to say it?

    d. Am i really in love or am i just overreacting? (Serious answers please) (once again, be brutally honest).

    THANKS!
