im 16 and my parents dont talk to me really at all, i sit in my room all day everyday. my boyfriend comes over all the time and comes over every weekend and was here like the entire summer. but schools started and im feeling extremely lonely. (im doing online so no social interaction) i dont really have any friends. and i just feel so lonely and sad without my boyfriend. we’ve been together almost a year and friends for longer. before him i was even lonelier, you get the gist of it, also i dont have money to go out and do anything, im broke and my family is poor. ive been in therapy before so. i have hobbies and things but i dont feel like doing them anymore, my boyfriend is unfortunately my only real source of happiness m. i want some advice on how to live without seeing my boyfriend everyday?

hi, i have been tested multiple times for stds so i know its not herpes and everything has come back perfect, but i will randomly get these pimple like red bumps? but you cant pop them and they dont look like razor burn, if it helps they will randomly come in when hair starts to grow back but i have tried to see if they are ingrown and they aernt? im so confused on what they are and why they are there. anyone have answers? also they will go away after a couple of days or weeks.

hi, so for the past like 2 months my right nostril piercing has been getting extremely irritated and infected off and on, and i got some good quality jewelry and the irritation usually happens after i wash my face but i definitely make sure to get the soap off and then clean with saline after? so im very confused on why my nostril piercings keep getting to be this way, today i washed my face and my left nostril piercing is swollen and irritated. ive taken antibiotics for this issue so i know its not that. both of my nostril piercings are healed, ive been using this face wash for years, and this new good jewlery that ive gotten are not the problem and the problem is why i got the jewlery, sorry this was totally all over the place. any advice? so confused and wondering why?

hi, i would like to remain anonymous. i was sexually assaulted 4 times, a little bit of a backstory, we were neighbors when we were younger, we would play in the front years and play with my basketball hoop and just play around, like kids do, until i moved away. a couple years later i saw him at the store, and i got his number i really didnt remember who he was til my dad told me and every memory just came back. we started texting. he is 2 years older than me, remember that) he started talking sexually to me when i was 10 years old, and started telling me how to have sex and asking me to make out with him etc at 11 (i didnt know what any of that was and hadnt even kissed anyone before) we started hanging out and he started kissing me and touching my breasts, i made it clear i wasnt very comfortable, ( i thought this was normal because i had never been in a sexual relationship like that before. the first time i was assaulted was in the movie theater with him, he put his hand down my pants and started rubbing my vagina and did NOT ask me, then about 5 minutes later of me looking very uncomfortable he asks “can i do this” i said “no maybe not” because at the time i had a huge crush on him but did NOT want to do anything sexual, he kept going for another 5 minutes and then just stopped and i thought “oh thank god” my movie theater has water fountains and he said he had to go get a drink and he wanted me to come with so i did, he drank and then said he had to go to the bathroom and i said okay, he asked me to come with so i could fix his “problem” and i kind of assumed what that meant but again i said “no im sorry” and he pressured me into going into the bathroom stall, he had me preform oral on him and i was so uncomfortable and i told him “i couldnt do it.” and he got upset with me and asked if i was going to tell people he assaulted me and i said why would i do that, he replied and said because thats what every other girl ive been with said, and i just kinda thought he was joking or something? so i brushed it off because i didnt realize that that wasnt okay. the second time i was assaulted was with him and my friends on the sofa, it was night time and me and him were sharing a blanket. he again put his hands down my pants and whispered “is this okay” i said “no” and he kept going anyway for about another 5 minutes again, and i didnt make a say anything to my friends because i didnt wanna make a big deal out of what i thought wasnt anything, so i just pulled his hand out of my pants and he was upset with me for the rest of the night, and said i “blue balled him”, the third time was in my room and he had started putting his hand in my pants once, we were alone in my room at night and it was late, this time i had said “i guess so” because he had pressured me and pressured me into saying yes (not even a yes) or he wouldnt like me anymore etc, he grabbed my hard and had me put it in his pants and with one hand we was rubbing my vagina (there was never any penetration) and the other hand he was moving mine to jack him off. i was so insanely uncomfortable i started to tear up and cry, i told him i didnt want to and he got angry with me. not to mention the fact that he used to hit me quite a lot, even infront of my friends (not friends with those people anymore, safe to say) i would have bruises and scratches all over me all the time. i remember on a birthday party of mine he had been to he pushed me into my vanity when he got mad at me (i cant remember why) and everything on my vanity fell on me including glass items, i had bruises and he just laughed at did not say sorry to me or help me up. he would also twist my arm behind my back til i would cry and beg him to stop. (i am a tall woman, 5’6 but he is around 6’3 so it was kind of hard to defend myself. he was so manipulative and i am traumatized from him. the last and most recent time he assaulted me, we were laying in his bed and he had started trying to make out with me and i told him no, because he had done shitty things to me and i just wanted to be friends at that point, but then he jumped on top of me and started sucking on my breasts and i tried to push him off and stay stop but i did not scream because his poor old 80 something year old grandma was in the other room sleeping, he covered my mouth and told me “shut up, you know you like it” then straddled me and put his legs on my arms and sucked on my boobs til they had bruises so bad my nipples had bruises for weeks. i have since cut off contact with him and have had none with him for months, he continues to harass me and call me, text me and make fake accounts on social medias to talk to me. he uses different numbers too. i have tried my hardest to get him to leave me alone. i also have two voicemails of him admitting what he did to me. i reported him to the police, the police said the evidence was not that hard and they didnt think the case would go anywhere, but they are sending it over to the state anyway and the case is still open, they literally have not talked to him yet and its been 3 months since i had them open the case, the most recent time happened almost a year ago (i was older then the other times, but i am still a minor. so im really just wondering what the actual fuck to do. please give some advice.
