*methyst's profile:

I am merely seventeen years of age, but since I was five years old I've been giving people even twice my age advice. I've went through a lot in my life, and have helped a lot of people, so I can relate to a lot of the questions I've seen so far. But don't judge me by my age, I'm more mature than my mother! And, please don't stereotype me with the rest of the "teenage" lovers, I actually am in a serious relationship and I know it's not all sunshine and butterflies. My guess is that I want to help give out advice to help others not make the mistakes I've made, and somewhat... make up for them in the process by doing so. I'm also not afraid to be brutally honest.

As for my avatar... I drew it. :) I'm also an artist, a microsoft paint artist to be exact.

L'amour peut être le plus grand cadeau, ou la plus mauvaise malédiction!

(Love can be the greatest gift, or the worst curse!)

My friend is 13 and she's dating a 19 year old....is this okay?

Q.   is it ok for my 13 year old friend to date a 19 year old?...

A.   30 December 2006: Well then obviously he really has emotions for her, therefore the age gap shouldn't be a problem as long as he's a nice guy. There's nothing wrong with him, he's just attracted to a girl and is managing to not care about the strange looks he'll be ... (read in full...)

A.   30 December 2006: Personally, I think you're overracting a tad bit. Let's face it, whether we're open about it or not, we've all at least wondered what it's all about, why so many people seem to find comfort with someone of the same sex, etc, etc, and girls ar... (read in full...)

Is our age gap inappropriate? Advice please?

Q.   I've recently started a relationship with a girl who's 15 - and I'm 19. We're pretty well exactly four years apart, and she is definitely that best thing that has happened to me as far as relationships go. I met her through where we work. ...

A.   30 December 2006: Well, if she's a mature girl I say you shouldn't feel wrong for dating her. I fell in love at 14 with my *now* fiance who was 17 (we're 2 years, 11 1/2 months apart) and my mother is fine with it, because she knows I'm mature enough to make such ... (read in full...)

A.   30 December 2006: I live in Southern US as well but let me tell you, it's not as uncommon as you may think. It's just kept on the DL (down low) most of the time. But there are some, like me, who are completely fine with it and really don't care what others think. If ... (read in full...)

Q.   I've been dating this guy for quite a while and he's started saying that he loves me and he truly acts like it. The only prob is that I'm basically his first really serious relationship so I'm scared that he only feels that way because he likes that ...

A.   28 December 2006: It's true there really isn't a definate answer for your question. But personally, if he hasn't given you a real reason to doubt yourself in placing trust in him, I think you should at least give him a shot. I'm moving in with my first relationship, ... (read in full...)

A.   28 December 2006: It's natural to question sometimes, and to feel used, yes. If this is a repeated occurance, chances are he's using you. If it's only happened once, decide whether to give him the benefit of a doubt or not. No one can tell you the truth other than ... (read in full...)

A.   3 December 2006: I know the idea he has all too well, and it's fair from the best one... even though he thinks he knows best, he's making a mistake... that is, if he was sincere with what he said about still wanting to be with you. Taking a break from you is like ... (read in full...)

Q.   My b/f and I have been together about 20 months and we have been living together for the past year. When we first started dating he informed me about his medical condition and he has about 2 yrs left. I told him I would not walk away I rather love ...

A.   26 November 2006: He's going through a tough time, and I think he's trying to become distant because he probably thinks it'll hurt less in the end... no one really knows how the mind works of one who can only look back, and knows it's pointless to look forward, ... (read in full...)

My friend is 13 and she's dating a 19 year old....is this okay?

Q.   is it ok for my 13 year old friend to date a 19 year old?...

A.   26 November 2006: While I'd like to say your friend is mature enough and responsible enough to handle herself, I don't know her so I can't make that judgement. Mostly though, in today's society, this is a big "no-no." The age difference isn't a problem of numbers, ... (read in full...)

A.   26 November 2006: Your ex seems to have some jealousy issues, that's OBVIOUS. Why'd he break up with you in the first place, did he tell you? He may have realized he made a mistake, and came in to get you back, then overreacted because he saw you with another ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi, I'd like some advice on my current situation. It took my boyfriend six months to get tested for herpes 2, and I'm really confused on what is going to happen after we hear the results. This is what happened: basically a few months ago he found a ...

A.   16 November 2006: Hold on a second, she did not accuse him of having a C-Section, she said I-F they ever were to conceive a child, she'd have to have one, which is TRUE! And for your information, I told her she overreacted a bit, but she had to have a trigger to get ... (read in full...)

A.   13 November 2006: I think what you're feeling is flattery that the other guy likes you, and the natural female's reaction of, "oh... I should like him in return, since he's not just a perverted creep!" or possibly lust. If you love your boyfriend, and truly feel ... (read in full...)

A.   30 October 2006: I think she's trying to put the blame on God for her mistake... not to sound too harsh. She never really loved you, then why did she make the most selfless commitment of having kids with you? Once you have kids, you're supposed to put them above ... (read in full...)

A.   29 October 2006: Ok, I'm not him of course, so I can't speak for him. But my observation (based on what you typed) was that he MIGHT have been trying to move more slowly than most other guys, so you wouldn't think he was just trying to "hit and run." He might not be ... (read in full...)

A.   29 October 2006: Umm... whoever told your boyfriend that, lied. It's not necessarily lieing, but it's hiding a NEED TO KNOW TRUTH! An example of where his interpretation could work: Say you had a dress he thought was hideous, but he didn't want to tell you tha... (read in full...)

Do I have the dreaded "pencil dick"? What do you all think?

Q.   Is my penis too thin? My penis measures 4.5 inches around when I'm erect and I've heard 5 inches the average. I'm worried because I've read women care more about girth than they do length. Am I OK here or do I have the dreaded "pencil dick?"...

A.   29 October 2006: I know I'm just tagging along, but hey, the more assurance the better right? If you find a girl who thinks size is everything in life, then she's more than likely going to hop into bed with any guy bigger than the next, so needless to say, she... (read in full...)

A.   29 October 2006: First off, there's no need to be embarrassed. Just about every shy person (or person who's went through a shy stage) feels your pain. And you're right, you shouldn't have to get intoxicated just to make conversation. No amount of advice that I c... (read in full...)

A.   23 September 2006: lol, good to know. I for one, am not one that views age as a factor for liking someone. If she likes you, and you like her, then I don't see why there'd be a problem. A few strange looks may come your way when you take her out on a date (if she look... (read in full...)

A.   23 September 2006: Wow, she's very much into you.... and she's basically being very bold about letting you know. If you're really into her, and you're willing to go through the problems that may soon arise, I'd say you should flirt back. Next time she mentions... (read in full...)
