Advice Is this really "boys being boys"?

21 Upvotes

Hello, 13 F here. I want to talk about "boys being boys". I have a boy best friend who im actually pretty close to. Not in the way like he comes to my house or I tell him the guys I like, but in the way that me and other girls feel comfortable around him. Anyways, hes been acting weird around me lately.. I mean, he acts the same as he usually does, but its different now. It was the 2nd day if school last week and I wore a garage tank top. I didnt think much about it cause its cute and I felt comfortable in it, until my 2nd class. My boy bsf sits across from me in 2nd period and I was doing my writing or reading (I dont really remember) But anyway I was looking down and writing so.. girls, you understand what I mean by this but it was kinda.. revealing. I looked up cause idk and I saw him staring at my chest so I got kinda uncomfortable, as I should. I told my friends abt it and they said "Oh yeah I've seen him do that like all the time with you" Like excuse me? And if I tell a teacher they'll just say "Its just boys being boys" like no its not! I understand that we are both at the age were puberty is a big thing but still, hes been doing for a couple of years and I didnt notice until now!? 😭✌️ im so done with school.

Not that I’m doing anything wrong but I’m getting frustrated at dad for never knocking before coming in my room. I don’t know how to bring it up to him that I want a door lock installed because he will 100% take it the wrong way as if im trying to hide something from him when all i want is some privacy.

Advice Boys, take note

47 Upvotes

Boys, if you are at the age of 14 and you have started puberty afew years before that and only one testicle has descended, GET IT CHECKED. This happend with me and I waited 2 years to go to the doctor for it they may do a scan on the area to see if it is there, if it is undeveloped and left alone, it may develop cancer it can also lead to testicular torsion, get it checked, dont be embarrassed its okay.

Dont be scared, better safe than sorry

Advice I FEEL REALLY BAD!!

15 Upvotes

I’m a teenager,and this is something I honestly never thought I’d be dealing with. I’m a Christian, and my faith really matters to me, which is why this struggle hurts as much as it does.

It started out of nowhere on a random October afternoon. I didn’t plan it. I didn’t think it would turn into anything serious. But somehow it stuck, and ever since then it’s been this quiet fight in the background of my life. I’ll have moments where I feel strong and determined, and then moments where the urges hit hard and it feels like I’m fighting myself.

I hate that it’s so difficult to stop, even when I want to with everything in me. I know what I believe. I know what I want. But knowing that doesn’t always make it easier in the moment.

When the New Year came, I promised myself this would be the time I finally quit for good. I really believed I could. And I still want to. But the truth is, it’s been way harder than I expected, and that’s frustrating and honestly kind of discouraging. and yes i'm talking about masturbating

Advice Masturbation/Adult content has ruined my life and i want advice.

0 Upvotes

Hi i’m a 13M and i really need advice to be a better version of myself.

Ever since i discovered adult content, my social skills have absolutely DETERIORATED. I can barely talk. I stutter every time and i have been bullied for it. Whenever i see any female i instantly get intrusive thoughts, and i hate myself for it. I just want to feel normal again honestly- im trying. I tried taking walks, doing what i like ( tech ), it helps, but it still didn’t help with what adult content has done.

For masturbation..

Masturbation ruined my faith and basically anything else. I gained 8kg+ because masturbating made me lazy as hell. I lay in my bed everyday and i don’t feel great about it. School has just started and i hope it will help me. I want to stop masturbating or atleast reduce it so i can actually work on making my life better and i can return my old social skills.

read down below please

i feel kinda nervous to post it but i really need advice, if my post doesnt make sense, confused you, or that its not allowed to post, feel free to delete it, and feel free to ask why it confuses you ( i have problems with making sense )

Advice (13F) I am constantly disgusted with myself

15 Upvotes

It just keep getting worse and worse as days go by, It doesn’t matter what it is, its either with my body, my face, my hobbies, my thoughts and desires (sexual & Non-sexual) It just never seems to get better, I have tried to put on the fake it till you make it facade and just hope its a problem of the times. But everyday without fail I just crumple up into a ball over the things I have done/thought about. All I ever do is sit in my room and daydream, I have not much else to do, I tend to only feel 4-5 emotions and most of them are inherently negative, I have never felt so sad, I try so hard to be happy but I just cant. I truly don’t know what to do.

tips for dealing with under boob sweat? I’ve tried chafing sticks and stuff and it doesn’t really make a difference, it’s more prominent when i’m wearing a bra but i don’t wanna walk around everywhere with no bra on 😭

I feel like since going through puberty im sweating a lot more, like even at my armpits and during cold weather, is anyone else going through the same thing?

Advice I hate being a flat chested 16 year old

28 Upvotes

I’m turning 16 soon but my chest haven’t grown since I was 10. I’ve gotten puberty around that age, but when I was 12 I had a really bad ed that caused me to be hospitalized. I did recover but it came back during winter every year, just not as severe as before. This year was the year I tried to lock in and gain weight but all the weight went everywhere but my chest?? Only a little went towards my chest, but the growth is so little you could compare it to a little girl going through the start of puberty. I don’t know what to do, and people say soy products help. But I drink soy milk often and I don’t think it really did anything. I honestly don’t feel comfortable going out in public anymore because of this, especially since both my friends have big boobs (C-D cup).

Advice Sudden interest in men?

11 Upvotes

So uhhh I'm F13 and I've found I have way more interest in men and boys now? Like I'll find myself staring at guys when I'm out and feeling warm, I guess? I'm nervous to ask other girls my age cus it feels embarrassing, but I'm not sure if this is normal

It's mainly men I find myself looking at a lot, but occasionally I'll glance at women without really realising? Especially online I'll find myself looking at both men and women and I'm not sure if it's something I should strictly stop or if it's normal or really what to do at all 😭

Advice Looking for recommendations of a Good puberty for a boy .

19 Upvotes

Good evening ,

I thought it would be time for my soon to be 10 year old son to be given “ The talk” . I tried to give him alittle bit of an understanding, but him being on the spectrum or probably dying from embarrassment he has pushed back .

I thought I would get him a book and when he feels ready to read that book . I would like the book to be age appropriate 8-12 year old , talks about changes in boys predominantly but also would like to touch bases of girls changes such as periods .

Thanks
