what is the paint called that models sometimes use to paint swimsuits on them & it peels off is it latex paint what is the paint called that models sometimes use to paint swimsuits on themand it looks real & it peels off is it latex paint? and if so where can it be purchased anywhere like walmart or specific stores?

How do models handle peeing when they have their swimsuits painted on? Those swimsuit models in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. How do they pee without making the paint run or smudge. Just curious cause it takes like 14 hours to paint it and do the shoot.

is there a washable paint specifically for use on skin? like they use to paint on swimsuits or face paint at sports events? where is it bought? i want something that will definitely be easy to wash off.

Would you ever a painted on swimsuit to a regular beach? What kind of paint do they use to paint on swimsuits that won't wash away in the water?

How to I get out paint for a swimsuit? My 9 year old went to camp with a swim short on, and got paint on the pantie part. It's look like she sat on it and was covered Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks

Would (metallic silver) spray paint work on swimsuit material? It wouldn't be used in water by the way. I'm guessing it probably wouldn't work but I just wanted to check :)

How do I get acrylic paint out of a swimsuit?!? I was painting and got some on my new bikini ;( It's acrylic, the kind you buy at Walmart in those bottles for 99 cents. Bright yellow on black and green stripes :( Help me!!

can you spray paint a swimsuit..? i have this bathing suit and i want to make it a little more original by spray paint something on it (not sure what yet)...ive done it to my clothes and it works fine. But im not really sure how great it will work to swim in? If you don't think itll work got any other ideas i can do to "spiff it up"?thanks oodles and noodles-sunshine;)

Can you use fabric paint on a swimsuit - will it get ruined because of chlorine in swimming pools?

want some tips on painting and decorating? I wear a headscarf to keep the paint out of my hair and an old swimsuit, paint is much easier to get off skin than clothes and i get really hot when I'm decorating, so it helps me to stay cool :-) I look hilarious :-) I do paint myself as well as the walls and I haven't got any old clothes.

Can swimsuits be airbrushed so that they are permanent? I am asking about being permanent in both salt water and swimming pools. Is it like a dye, or just paint stuck on top that will come off in the water?

I am going out with my friend, we will get paint on us, get muddy and get soaked. What should I wear? Me and my friend are going to have a paint fight, get muddy and go swimming in a lake. We are not going to wear swimsuits we are just going to wear normal, everyday clothes. What should I wear? Why not denim? how about a pair of short denim shorts with a white tank top, with something to put over it if it goes see through when I'm swimming?

Is there a metal safe to use on swimsuits? What is a safe metal to use on a swimsuit as an accent? If there isn't one, is it safe to use a plastic accent painted to look like metal? I'm currently making a swimsuit and do not want to worry about discoloration or any other negative effects pool chemicals could have on the metal decorations.

How do I get paint out of my swimsuit? So i went to a party and we had a paint fight. I was wearing my swim suit and i got a little bit of black paint on it. The color of my swimsuit is a bunch of neon colors with some black and it is all mixed into a bunch of designs. I was lucky enough to get it on the part that was more yellow. I went swimming after to get all the paint off of my skin, and i think the paint got sunk into the material a bit. I'm not sure if it went down into the pad thing that is in swim suits, or if it is just in the outer layer of material and is just sunken into that. Either way, i would like to know if there is any possible way to get the paint out ? That would be great. Thanks! I have heard to sue paint thinner....and wont it ruin the material? or not get it out once it has sunk in ?

In modeling, what is twofold..? I got a job offer for a promotional calender. She said "The calendar shoot is twofold: swimwear and body paint" What exactly does that mean? Two photo shoots, one with swim suit, one with body paint. or one shoot with swim suit and body paint. or a painted on swimsuit, because I don't pose nude. PLEASE ONLY ANSWER IF YOU KNOW, I don't need opinions. Thank you.

Club Party? Decorations? Clothes? Food? My birthday is in September and that's when i'm having my 14th birthday party. It's going to be club themed. The invitations will be like VIP pass type things, and when guests arrive they'll get a glow stick necklace, wrist band and a glow in the dark stamp on the hand. Also there'll be a red carpet and like a family member taking pictures as people arrive and a bouncer with a guest list. And inside there will be: ~Disco ball ~Neon lights ~Strobe lights ~Streamers ~Bubble machine ~DJ playing music all night ~Bar serving virgin drinks ~Outside people will be wearing swimsuits and can paint each other with glow in the dark paint (I thought about a fog machine, but the hotel said it will set off the fire alarms) And at 10:00 silver, gold, black and blue balloons and confetti will drop. There will be about 150 people there. I know that everyone who asks this on Yahoo! says the same thing for their party, but: ~What else can I have at my party? ~What foods can be served?(Nothing boring, like chips. Stuff like chocolate covered pretzels/strawberries) ~What kind of vrigin drinks can be served? (Like virgin margaritas...) ~Any other sort of decorations? ~What else will keep people entertained? ALSO, what can I wear to my party?? Since it's club themed, I was thinking of wearing a sparkly dress but I can't find any anywhere. I live in the St.Louis area so where can I find a cute sparkly dress??

Ideas for two 14 year-old girls to do at a sleepover? Also we got some paint? Ideas?!? I am having a sleepover with one of my best friends, and we are the type of people, that on sleepovers we don't like to use our phones so we take turns hiding them. Therefore we have a bunch of stuff planned to do such as: 1: MUDDING!! 2: Shots. Oh yeahh. 3: Just Dance 4: Make videos; Just Dance, Talk Show, etc. 5: Water Balloons 6: Sleep in BACKYARD!!!(: 7: Silly String fight in street! 8: Last letter. NO LAUGHING! 9: Bathtub Pool party! Swimsuits :D 10: IMAGINATION TIME! 11: Tickle Arena! Smack on floor if your out 12: Watch a sad Romance film! 13: Make a Serious movie. (: 14: Sleeping bag war 15: Drunk videos 16: 5 year-old days:) Theses are just a bunch of things only WE like to do, I don't do them with anyone else. Soooo, any more ideas? Also I happen to have a bunch of little tubes of paint, but I never have anything to use them for. So I would kinda like to get rid of it but in a fun way, rather then just throwing it away. And I'm sorry, but as much fun as it would be, we CANNOT paint on our bodies! Whoever gives me some GOOD ideas to do at our sleepover and with the paint will get the best answer. If you just give me ideas just for the sleepover, or just for the paint, I will not choose your answer to be the best answer. THANK YOU!

Information on Watercolor Painter/Painting ? I have an original watercolor signed by B. Reeder(?) and dated 1913. It depicts two small children (ages 2ish) at the waters edge. One child is wading in the water in a old fashioned white swimsuit; with blonde hair. The other child's back is turned to the artist and he/she is bending down to pick something up; this child is wearing a pink/light red old fashioned swimsuit; brown hair. The painting is very sweet and beautiful and if anyone has more information on either the painting or the artist, I would love to hear from you! Thank you!

My friend is copying me and I have found no way at all to solve it.? My best friend and I.... We like each other (as friends lol:P) a lot, but she has really started to bug me. I could write a book about all of the things she has copied me on. My favorite flavor of lollipop, my favorite sports, my favorite positions in different sports, tv shows that I like/dislike, my swimsuits, the way I talk, the way I draw, the way I write... EVERYTHING... A lot of the time the scene is like this. BEFORE SPRING BREAK Me: Yeah, I actually do like Japan a lot and I know some Japanese too. Her: Oh... well I like France a lot.. It's just really cool! I also know a little French AFTER SPRING BREAK Her: Hey, hey, guess what! Have you heard about Japan, Japan is so cool, I really just love it! I'm learning Japanese... I just started liking Japan over spring break, and it's actually really awesome! Me: Oh cool... So what kind of anime to you like? Her: What's anime? Me: *stares* Look it up... it should be simple enough. *laughs* Her: No! Please, please, please tell me what it is now! The next day she was running around showing everybody a crappy anime picture she drew, she acted like I had never told her about any of this stuff, as if it were all original... Turns out I had been showing her all of my Japanese stuff for around a year or so. Soon she started liking Pokemon (-.-) which she told me she hated. Apparently, she also was obsessed with tokidoki, munny, anything kidrobot, video games, etc... About a week later she started telling people that I copied her and that she had been liking Japan since she was 4, when someone in her preschool taught her how to draw manga. As I said, before that she told me that she started liking it over spring break. A lot of our cases are like that. I am totally obsessed with furries and drawing them on photoshop. I put one of my drawings on my email, as my profile picture (my gmail). Soon, she made a really crappy furry on MS paint and put it on as her picture. I happen to love Vocaloid music, she doesn't even know what Vocaloid is... But apparently she also loves Vocaloid songs. When I changed my gmail icon to a picture of Kagamine Rin that I made, she put up a picture of Miku that I had given her the link to. This makes her sound crazy or psycho, but she is a really nice person, but also very rude. ...Now please don't go telling me I'm supposed to be flattered, because she can be VERY mean to me. My hands are a little bit wider than hers, it's barely noticeable. For that reason, she calls my hands fat. I consider myself in no way fat at all (lol). Some days we are just talking, and we go to play a game/ sport outside with our friends. She just decides she can turn her back on me, gang up on me and try to get me out in whatever I do. Then the next day she will expect me to be her friend. Truthfully, that has happened many times. Just a little bit more info... Well, I would say that she is extremely sensitive, which is why I feel i can't confront her. If I say one mean thing she will tell everyone, and never be my friend again. She is very difficult, but I really don't want to lose my friendship with her. Also, please don't think I'm over exaggerating, but this same event comes in so many forms every single day... It would just waste my time to type up everything. I am just trying to make a point, that typically she just plain copies me, but sometimes she "likes" things that she said she hated. There might be a few mistakes here, I'm typically used to shortening things up into urban dictionary language, lol C:

My bedroom is a mess! Organizing ideas? 10 points for best answer!!!!!? Both my sister and I are redoing our rooms. Mine is going to have caramel colored walls, deep red curtains, a mostly white bed, and lots of candles. What do you think? Only problem is, my sister throws the stuff she doesn't want in my room! (She's 11, I'm 15). It's all pretty much junk and I tell her to stop, but she won't! And once my room is clean, she just gets rid of more of her stuff my 'giving' it to me! She just assumes I want whatever she doesn't! I have lots of clothes but my closet is really small. I have a dresser, too but I put makeup, swimsuits, games and things like that in there and I'm running out of organizing ideas. I also like doing art things, so I have to have space for that too, and I have some stuffed animals, but I can't just put them on my bed. I need space for that stuff too. Please help!!!! My mom said I can't paint my room or start with anything like that until my room is clean! And under my bed is a mess! Any ideas? 10 points for best answer!!!!!!!!

Trouble with the school system? We recently moved to a new area and my children naturally started a new school back in October. My son has an IEP for behavoir due to being diagnosed with bipolar disorder at the age of 5. Over the years of him in school, we have run into an occassional problem... He was suspended once last year in Washington state and off the bus one day as well. He seems to have trouble in big groups and with changes in routine. Since we have started in our school here in Alabama we have had trouble almost daily. I will by no means paint my son as an angel, he has had his fair share I'm sure, but the problem I'm having is these other kids, even by word of mouth of the pricipal are starting fights with my son and when my child defends himself he gets into trouble. I have told my son a number of times not to fight back, but to tell a teacher. The problem is... These teachers don't help. My son came home with a large bruise on his forehead my son didn't fight back.. I called the school numerous times with no response from the principal and nothing was done to the other child. On Thursday, My son got off the bus and a middle school student had stabbed him in the arm and the stomach with a pencil, it was deep enough that it left large bloody holes in his skin, once again, he didn't fight back. I tried calling the school and got no answer. I figured I would call again in the morning. That morning, my daughter sent me a text saying that kids on the bus were showing my son half dressed women on their cell phones and calling him gay. I reached the principal after numerous calls. The pricipal told me that they had taken in the kids who called him names and gave them detention and that the girls were not in their bra's but in swimsuits., so it really wasn't "THAT" bad. He also informed me that they could not find the child that had stabbed my son on the bus, that they didn't know who he was, but he would keep looking. That afternoon, my daughter (who is never ever in trouble) sent me a text saying that this same boy was dumping soda on her calling her names and pushing her. I told her to take a picture of him with her phone so I could take it in and this kid could have some consequences. She snapped a picture of him and the bus driver pulled the bus off the side of the road called the police and had them come and take her phone from her. She showed up at the house very upset.. no one called me. I called the bus garage and talked to the director of the buses who was very rude and told me the pricipal would have to give the phone back and that it was against the law for her to take a picture of a student. Once again on Monday I spent the day making phone calls, They found the child, he was taken off the bus for a week. BOTH my children were taken off the bus for the rest of the year. When I called the bus garage again after contacting the pricipal who said he thought it was a little unfair, the director was extremely rude, most of his answers were yep, yep and uh huh. He said my daughter was taken off because it was illegal for her to take a picture, when i asked then why my son was removed he couldnt give me an answer, at which point I asked who his boss was, was it the superintendent? He wouldn't answer me, I said yes or no, is your boss the superintendent? He finally shouted the number over me. I called the suprerintendent, day one I got a voicemail, left a message and didn't get a return call. Day two, same thing. Day three, I asked his secretary when he would be in the office and she connected me. He said nothing the entire time I talked, I felt like I was talking to myself. I finally said, do you feel that it's fair that my children were thrown off the bus for the rest of the year while this child who stabbed my son was only taken off for a week? He said anytime that there is a danger to the students and the bus needs to be pulled over is a danger to the students on the bus. I said so you think it's fair that a child who used a weapon on another student is less dangerous then a child who took a picture on a phone? He didn't answer. I said it's not fair and I don't think it's just. He said, that's your opinion. I said you're right Dr Bridges it is my opinion, but I bet as a parent, I'm not the only one who shares this opinion. I will take further outside action to resolve this to my satisfaction. So... my question is, who do I need to contact? What can I do? Am I in the wrong? Please help.. your answers are important. All I want is equal treatment and safety for my children. I feel as though my son is being discriminated against because he has had some problems in the past, but they aren't recognized because he "looks" like a "normal" child. Fluffy, Firstly I want to start off by saying, my children did nothing, I wanted an honest answer, so I included everything that happened, so that when I do go to the school board I don't go in front of them looking like an idiot. I expect equal treatment for my children at all times. My son has an IEP for behavior and I have requested a number of times that he be sat at the front of the bus away from the middle school children, which never happened. My child did not provoke this student, he did nothing during this altercation with this other child. As I said when I asked why my son had been pulled off the bus, they told me it was because he had trouble on the bus in the past. NOT that he had problems during THIS incident. He served his "past" punishments, why is this day all of a sudden different? Now, because he was injured on the bus, now he is kicked off for the year because of the past? Sorry... this makes zero sense to me and I have it all in writing.

What should I do about my friend's parents? Okay well my friend has crazy parents in which one won't let her do anything, and one is really selfish. Her mom is the one who won't let her do anything. Her mom is a religious freak! She always blesses the house and watches this religious program all day long! She's always lecturing my friend about Jesus and God and all that stuff, and if you start a conversation with her, she'll find a way to bring God into it! She's way too restrictive, too. She won't let my friend, who's thirteen, wear any makeup, paint her nails, or even wear a two piece swimsuit! She makes my friend go to mass every single Sunday, saying that every mass is way too important to miss. My friend's mom doesn't have a job, but she has four kids, three boys and one girl (my friend is the girl). Two of the boys and my friend go to school and don't get out until two o' clock at the earliest. Though the child who doesn't go to school will start kindergarten in the fall. Still, my friend's mom refuses to get a job! She just sits in front of the television all day, watching the religious program. She always bosses the kids around and lectures them 24/7. Mt friend's dad is not very good either. He always cusses and over reacts when something breaks or something. He's always shouting at the mother and he spends money like crazy. My friend even told me that her dad went to that place where you can get money out of your pay check in advance. He's always going out to eat instead of spending his money on bills or groceries, and he has anger issues. Like once my friend's dad got so mad when a sink broke that he put a hole in the wall that went all the way through to her brother's closet! My friend's dad also overeats, taking in gallons of ice cream and huge servings of anything else. This has affected my friend because she isn't doing as well as she used to in school, and she's picking up cuss words from her dad. She's also really disrespectful towards her mother and will complain about anything that doesn't have to do with me or her other friends. I'm really worried about my friend because I just want her to be in a safe environment. Is there anything I can say to her parents to be less strict or something? Maybe some motivational things to say to my friend? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Body Painting? What do you think? I was considering doing it for a festival, do you think i should? I hear that you're covered up pretty well but I'm worried about it. Would you ever consider doing it?

Help finding a sold- out swimsuit? Hi guys! Okay so I'm in desperate need of help! A few weeks ago, I ran into Target and found the most adorable swimsuit, but I only had 20 dollars, so I just bought the top. Now, I want the bottoms, but they are completely out online and in the stores. I can't find them on any other websites (like eBay or google shopping) and summer's almost here! Can someone please help? Here is the link to the top: http://www.target.com/Xhilaration-Juniors-Reversible-Splatter-Triangle/dp/B0030E3VAE/ref=pd_ecc_rvi_1 It is reversible, black with neon paint splatters on one side, and stripes on the other. I am looking for a small in the matching bottoms. Note: I realize I can wear a solid colored bottom, but I am looking for the matching ones. Any insider websites or ANY help would be appreciated!!! Thank you!!! (:

Question about Sports Illustrated annual swimsuit issue...? No, I do not buy it. But so much hype about it, it is impossible to NOT know about it. What I noticed this year is that body painting was a big thing. Which looks like the 'evolution' of swimwear - eventually - on our beaches and pools, will be NO swimwear, but rather body painting with waterproof paints. Taking this "evolution" further, I would guess that body painting will disappear too. ALL beaches and pools will be bikini and body-painting-free 'clothing-optional.' Including the annual swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated. When this happens, do you think this will 'evolve' further where 'clothing-optional' with regards to women, will also be allowed everywhere?

keep her happy? my wife recently asked me for the first time for a swimsuit and i got her a pair. she said she was joining the swimming classes but when i checked a few weeks later, the instructor told me that she hadn't really pickedup the lessons and didn't sound serious. also these days whenever we go to beach she prefers wearing these swimsuits & 2 piece suits. then later that summer when we went on tour for vacation with our friends, she preferred to stay even topless at beaches. later on when i spoke with her on this, she said she loved to have body painting on her. during a local community festival, i arranged to have her body painted, she was much happy. i asked her what her idea was, for which she didnt give any direct reply but asked me if i would not support her for which i replied it was okay for me. for her changed attitude, what should i do more to keep her happy still?

Can somebody name this anime? I 4got its name but its about a girl who wanted to be this police woman underwater I think, this took place in like the future. She did this test to be one, which were obstacles she had to pass under the water. In my opinion she did very well, but didn't get the job. She comes homes and finds out she's evicted because she can no longer pay the rent. At the end of it..... she gets shot by this criminal i think. I looked it up a long time ago and I think its about a girl who joins this police woman force and they go for criminals and i think this anime has like a water theme because what i remembered is that they had swimsuits on. Also, i remember the ending being the main character in the water just floating, painted beautifully and the series had 24 episodes. Please someone tell me the name.

First time getting a Dollfie Dream? So I am really considering on buying myself a Dollfie Dream doll. I loooove collecting dolls and figurines. I stumbled upon these while looking at Nendoroid and Figma figurines I've been wanting to collect. Sooooo my question is... how exactly do you uhmmm.. order these? I kind of got an idea on how to choose what you want on them but like the heads aren't painted or anything. Is that something you have to do by yourself? Or can you like have them paint it for you? There was really cute pics of some dollfies on this site i found. How can I make mine look like or similar to those? Especially the face and how it looks. I would love mine to look like that. here are the pics http://www.figure.fm/post/en/31315/Akira.html http://www.figure.fm/post/en/31454/Swimsuit+Time+Ryoko.html Also, any cheap websites where I could buy clothes and accessories for it? Seeing as to how I'm going to spend a lot already on the base and stuff XD

HELP! WRITER'S BLOCK! how good is this writing? ohkaay, like give me your f33dback. what should i do next? i starred out my email so answers people won.t email me. 'But, I deserve the right to know ' and 'I think you should have been a bit nicer about ' are crossed out and that whole letter is in a box and a different font. My eyes melt, into the black, steamy coffee. This has to be the largest mug I have ever seen. It was a gift to my dad from his sister. Very thick pottery; the color is unique. It has a purple background, and beautiful green cacti. My dad uses it EVERY morning. I try really hard not to spill it. It’s tempting. Tempting to just dump the liquid out of the huge mug, by tossing my arms into the air, and letting drops of burning hot coffee, surround me like rain. Over with this nonsense, I deliver the caffeine to my dad. “Thanks honey,” he says. I just smile. I told him to stop calling me that. I’m 17, my name’s Nicole, or Nikki. That’s all he can call me. I walk downstairs and into the bathroom. I stare into my eyes; the refection of me. My blue eyes stare back into me, waiting to look at something else. I keep them there, refrain them from looking away. I feel they’re itching to look at something else; my nose, my ear, my lips; anything but a starting contest with themselves. I look away, giving relieve to my pools of blue; my visionary bulbs. I go to my room, and on the computer. www.westfeildshoppingcenter.com; Stores; Tiffany. Hmm, this ring looks pretty. I click on it. Ooh, $90. I can’t afford that. I open my bottle of root-beer scented lotion and rub it in my hands. I turn the keys in the ignition and floor it, then rock back in my car. “Niiiice!” I hear from the passenger seat. My best friend, Apple, bobs her head. “Bite me.” I move the stick shift in place, then try again, and drive out of the lot “When was the last time you cleaned this car?” she asks, picking up a king-of-hearts playing card, then a pencil that says ‘Diane’s Chiropractic.’ “Uh… eight months ago… ? I say, more a question than an answer. “Wow, great.” “Oh, and your car is spotless?” She sticks her tongue out. “Very mature, Apple.” Just then, I pull up in her driveway. Her room is now neon green. “So, how many times have you painted your room in the last two months?” “Fi--- six…? I think.” “Nice,” I go over to her radio and turn it to 106.1. Gross, I hate this song. 93.3. Ooh, Starstruck. I sit on her beanbag and she sits on her waterbed. “So, Colie, what do you want for your birthday? Three days away-ay!” “A new phone; an iPod. Can you afford that?” I challenge her. “So, a pack ‘a gum and three collectors’ chapsticks?” “Just like last year.” I smile. My mom stares at me. “What?” I ask. She smiles, then takes out a little white box, and jerks it in my direction. I look closer, and the little white box has a blue ribbon and a word; a name. The best name I could think of right now. Tiffany. I snatch the box from her fingers and rip the ribbon out of the way, then snap open the box. I gasp. “It’s beautiful.” I say. It’s a silver ring with an aqua-green pendant and gold clasp. “Thank you, so much! This is the best birthday present I’ve ever gotten,” I say, hugging her. Apple and I go to the flower beds in my backyard, looking at the glistening sound, just feet away. “Ahh, I love the beach,” Apple and I say, synchronizing. I inhale the salt water scent, then un-expectedly, on Apple’s part, jump up and run in my house, then come out with two swimsuits. “Let’s go,” I whisper to her. She knows exactly what I mean. We run to the front of my house and on the two skateboards and ride down the street to the cove. A bon fire; a party; ahh, high school. I see teens huddled around a campfire, laughing. I smell sand and chocolate. I taste salt water in the air. I hear ‘Paper Planes’ in the distance. I feel thin oxygen. Apple and I move over to a log; the log. The sunset is diamonds set in the sky; pink, purple, and a gorgeous blue. The largest star in our solar system shines across the white marshmallow in the upper atmosphere; shining across Seattle to make our days light up, but now, dusk comes, creating the most beautiful part of the day in my view: the sunset. “Can we capture the sunset and keep it to put in my room?” Apple wishes. “I hope so. Let’s find out.” I get up and run over to the main building, and so does Apple. I open the door and we go into the bathroom to change into our suits. We change, then get out of the main building and sprint across the grass field and over the sand, into Puget Sound. “Cold-d-d!” I scream. Apple nods her head, and I hear her teeth chattering. The water is cold, but I go down to my knees, then my waist, then my neck. After a few minutes, it’s not so cold anymore. Almost, kind of… relaxing. “Okay, why is your bathing suit yellow?” Apple says. “Because that’s how it was made,” I respond, trying not to be o

Guys, am I too "curvy"? Sorry I keep posting this... I can't get my link to work... I recently went to a pool party with a bunch of kids from my college. I heard that one of the girls who goes to my school was speaking badly about me, and it made me feel extremely self-conscious. She apparently said that I was "too curvy" whatever that means... I had always thought that curvy was a nice way of calling someone chubby but I just went to the doctor and he said that I was on the low end of normal weight and that I shouldn't lose any more. Maybe she was referring to my hip-to-waist ratio I'm not really sure, but I always thought that guys liked curvier girls but maybe I'm wrong. :( My measurements are 32-23-36... maybe she was making fun of my hips? I don't know, but it made me feel bad and I don't know what to do because my doctor said not to lose any weight. Guys, do you prefer curvier girls or more straight-up-and-down? If you want to see a picture, here is the link... it is a picture of me in my swimsuit that I wore to the party. http://www.flickr.com/photos/59253945@N06/with/5591055398/ Oh, and the white spots are paint spots that got on my mirror haha. Anyway, guys, let me know what your opinion is about the curvy versus straight thing. I'm trying not to let her comment affect me because she's a girl so I just want a guy's perspective. Also, please don't say anything too mean because that is a picture of me and I'm already feeling down. Thanks :) OK I'm actually not sucking in that's the shape of my torso... and I'm not looking for attention... that's why I posted this on an anonymous website with my face out of the picture...

what do you think of the first page of my story? I couldn’t stop smiling from ear to ear and I couldn’t seem to stop jumping up and down in my leather seat of my cousin, Jimmy’s new Cadillac Escalade Hybrid. This was it. This was actually it. I’m here. Now. In California. Yes, I was extremly beyond happy and excited. This was a definitely strange feeling. No, I wasn’t supposed to be here. In fact, I shouldn’t have been feeling this way either. A few days ago, I had promised myself not to give sunny California its full satisfaction. Right now, I should have hated the idea of even being here but my mind was being cooperative with me today. Either my lack of sleep was the potent cause or the whole seven and a half hour flight from New York was just messing with me. I felt my stomach clench into different, complicated knots and I bit down on my lip to keep the tears that were forming around my eyes from threathening to pour out. New York. My home. I felt my mouth pull down on the corners into a frown. Finally, a normal reaction I could actually deal with and accept. It was not worth pretending anymore. I missed New York. I missed my home. I would miss all my exclusive limousine rides to St.Charles Academy, a Private School for the gifted youth and where most of my older relatives have gotten their degree and got worthless lives from getting into Ivy League Colleges. I would miss the constant honking of bysy taxis and cars in traffic, which had become sweet music to my ears. I’m going to miss all of my friends and even Kelly Richard’s late night parties in her newly-renovated penthouse and the wonderful, glowing city night lights that had replaced my moon. I’d miss Fat Joe, the beefy-looking hot dog man who’d stand out of Starbucks and give me free hot dogs. I’d even miss my whole soccer team and my soccer coach, Ms.Lethingway, whom I was destined to lead into championships this year and beat our equal rival, St. Paul’s. Even the sticky gum and bird poop clinged to the sidewalk, I’d miss it all. California would be an amazing place to live, no doubt about that, but it will never be what I would call my home. It’s never going to be the same. I shook my head to keep all the negative thoughts away. I would not let this get to me right now. I would push that to the very back of my mind and deal with this later. Most likely tonight. The car drove around the corner and we were all greeted with the amazing view of Huntington Beach, California. To my left was Huntington Beach itself. This was an absolutely spectacular sight and my eyes glistened with awe. I could hear pop beach music seeping into the windows of the car. A huge, square, white, wooden sign stood on a huge stone platform on the beach and was painted in dark blue saying: “Welcome to Surf City, USA. Huntington Beach, California.” I spotted a middle-aged couple taking pictures alongside it and holding each other happily. Tourists. White, soapy waves were coming ashore and the afternoon sun was still pretty high looking down at us promising its usual sunny self to spend more time down here. There were a group of teenaged boys playing volleyball and checking the girls out in their mini bikinis when they thought nobody was looking. Most of the beach seemed to be covered with people laying face-down on their towels silently tanning while a distressed mother was trying to calm her violent child down about not throwing handfuls of sand at hungry seagulls. Young lifeguards in their red Baywatch-like swimsuits were happily chatting around the white, wooden lifeguard stand and looked to be completely oblivious to anything around them. I’m sure if somebody screamed for help in the waters, they would still act as if they heard a nearby fly buzzing around their ears. Finally I was able to spot the surfers in the water looking like little jets speeding their way through the waves. There were surfers of all ages from a little kid about five to the hippest eighty year old surfer grandpa you’d know, either surfing like they’ve done this for years or just rather horribly and continuously falling off. Along to the far side of the beach, thanks to my tremendous healthy eyesight, I was able to see a group of boys who looked around to be my age playing with a soccer ball up ahead. This was obviously the most social hang-out. “It’s a beauty isn’t it?” my older cousin, Jimmy, said motioning to the beach with his free hand while the other was steering the car. Beside me, my fifteen year old brother, Justin, didn’t hear a word of what Jimmy had said. Instead, Justin seemed to also enjoy the view of the girls on the beach like every other teenaged boy within a ten mile reach of here. “Damn,” he said practically drooling. He rolled down the windows and the car was filled with the wet, salty air. I coughed into my arm. This whole new California scent that was filling my nostrils seemed completely foreign to me. Definitely nothing like t i'm only thirteen years old and i've writtten this. people told me i'm like really really good in this stuff, so i need YOUR opinion. i really would like to write a book someday. so thank you everyone! please tell me what i could do better or what the good stuff i used were. thank you thank you! i'm only thirteen years old and i've writtten this. people told me i'm like really really good in this stuff, so i need YOUR opinion. i really would like to write a book someday. so thank you everyone! please tell me what i could do better or what the good stuff i used were. thank you thank you! BTW!!!! my story was cut off. so yeah. just please tell me what you think about it so far anyways (:

Bikini Season...me+bikini = help (pics?)? Uhh okay I never thought I would stoop this low but I need opinions on me in a bikini...I just realized all my friends look amazing in swimsuits (they're short with huge boobs while I'm like 5'10 1/2" and a B-cup) compared to me! They always make jokes like how I'm still "small" even though I'm already 14 years old. Do you think I look okay and what kind of bikinis have good padding because mine don't have ANY. http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j28/sugariisweet/Temp.jpg http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j28/sugariisweet/random092.jpg P.S. the reason I painted over my bikini is because I've never seen anybody with a bikini like mine so if you guys ever saw my bikini in real life you'd probably know it was me lol (so I'm NOT NAKED). P.P.S. Do you think I have nice legs because since I don't have good boobs I need one thing that's positive about me!

Swimming Pool Cuteness Advice? Okay, so me and my friend are going to the pool today. My friend thinks she is ten times better than me and I want to show her that I can be pretty and boys like me too. So I am wearing a paint splatter string bikini and my hair is gonna be in a high side ponytail with a deep side part.

I'm looking for the artist who did a painting of 2 fat ladies in the ocean? My friend gave me a figurine, so I know she does ceramics and paints. The figurine is of a fat lady wearing a red one piece suit with a cooler, and a beach ball wearing a beach hat. The painting is of the same woman and another fat lady wearing a yellow swimsuit and they're in the water of a New-England-esque bay. The signature on the painting looks like Herrerra, but after searching, I'm guessing that's not it. I believe the figurine was named "Judith" because that's what we've called her for the past 8 years.

Whats wrong with this guy..? He is messed up? He is messed up...okay he was my friend for about 2 years. His gf recently broke up with him. I have noticed this pattern. Every time he and a gf breaks up he goes for the closest girl to him. I don't think he can go a week without a gf. He is going for me now and I don't like it. He keeps saying I'm cute but that's the least of it. We will get on facebook and I will say "what are you doing?" and he will say " Thinking about you and me in bed and how good of a partner you would be" or I will say "I am painting my nails" and he will say "Yeah me too I am painting two circles on each nail to represent something" he told my friend the other day that he wanted to go skinny dipping with me and told her that I would look good in a swimsuit. It's really creepy. I am not that kind of girl at all. He is really mean to my friend too. Once he told her he loved her and she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen and then the next day he told her he did not want to talk to her anymore and he talks bad about her to me but I always stick up for her and he just tries to tell me different. I have been trying to avoid him and stuff but he keeps texting me perverted crap and sending me sick messages on facebook. What should I do? He was my friend but I am not so sure anymore.... Everytime I tell him I don't like talking about that stuff and he needs to stop he says"If you don't like my personnality then we shouldn't be friends! This is how I am you need to accept me for who I am."

Is this a good research paper over Barbie? im only in 8th grade...? “Barbie is just a doll,” someone once said, but Barbie® is not just a doll; She’s an international fashion icon. The Barbie® doll has reshaped millions of lives and others are in line for the change, but this change would never of happened without the marvelous creator Ruth Handler. The story begins like many other stories; Ruth had been living with her husband, daughter, and son. Her husband, Elliot Handler was in business making picture frames, but when his partner bailed on him; he decided to move on and make doll house furniture with all the left over picture frames. Frankly his partner came back and together they named their business Mattel, ‘Matt’ for Harold Mattson the partner, and ‘el’ for Elliot. Like one quoted “Once a quitter, always a quitter,” and Harold decided to move on once again. Alone, Elliot began receiving help from his beloved wife, Ruth who aspired greatly in building a doll. Unsure of where to find her muse, she began looking quickly and the first place was from the designers in Mattel, unfortunately there was no spark. Depressed the young creator sat at home, where she found her spark watching as her young daughter and her friends played with paper dolls. ‘Barbie® had to be created.’ Family vacation was the next step to the creation of Barbie®. The family of four traveled to Europe where they had discovered the Bild Lilli doll, a doll quite similar to the upcoming Barbie® doll but much different in dimensions, to be exact much larger than what Ruth had in mind. Ruth purchased one knowing that with a model the process of Barbie® would be much faster. Her vision was set, Barbie® named after her daughter, Barbara; would have a narrow waist, long tampered legs, high healed feet, detailed facial features, as well as painted finger and toe nails; this dream doll had to be made. Unfortunately the designers at Mattel were uninterested and thought it would be a waste of much money. So where would the famous Barbie® doll be made? Not America but in Japan, with help from the Kokusai Bocki Kasisha staff, who spent long hours working on the Barbie® project made out of hard plastic with many molded parts. Finally the Barbie® doll was shown to public at the New York City American Toy Fair. She was dressed in a black and white zebra-striped swimsuit with open toed shoes; accessorized with sunglasses, earrings, and her hair pulled back up in a low pony tail. The buyers weren’t exactly impressed with her, but to the kids it meant the world. In fact it took several years for supply to catch up with the demand, and 10 years from the appearance in New York City 1959, the public purchased 500 million dollars worth of Barbie® products, each Barbie® being sold at 3 dollars. Barbie® has evolved into the most successful toy in the history of toy industry. Defined as a “small-scale anatomically molded plastic figure of a human being used especially as a child's plaything and collectable toy,” the plastic doll continues to live on. Today she has more than 80 careers and represents 45 different nations. According to Pechin, “since of its reality to girls it enhances their self-image and potential,” possibly increasing their maturity as Barbie® expands her horizons influencing young kids to do so also. Barbie® is currently marketed in more than 150 nations, and purchased from as low as a couple dollars to as high as 1000 dollars and more. “In every second of every day, two Barbie dolls are sold somewhere in the world.”

And i wrote him a poem for the last day of school, will he like that? give me some other facts on the Libra-dude sun sign too please, thank you.

What should i do with my friend? ok here's the deal. i have this one friend who is so nice and a sweetheart to almost a fault. she let's everyone walk all over her and is way too shy and doesn't talk. but when she does talk its about her little brother/ little sister/ bunny. she tells the most boring stories and is always tagging along behind us. that wouldnt b so bad if she wasnt so gosh darn annoying! she also dresses like she and her 7-year old sis go shopping together plus she is a bit chubby. my friend and i wanna help but to do so we might hafta be so mean so we came up w/ some ideas. 1) when she talks about something annoying, we let it go for ONE minute, but if she just goes on and on and on, we tell her (NICELY!!) that we really don't care. and then quickly change the subject to sumthing we actually want to talk about. maybe it will help her learn her lesson if we give her sum tuff luvv. 2) If she starts getting all shy on us we'll just say "okay, u can sit out and not do it. watever." and then she'll be sitting off to the side watching us have fun and she'll be wishing that she chose to do it with us and then next time she wont make such a big deal Her "look": 1) We hafta let her know (with out actually saying it) that her clothes r crud. Every day we hafta tell sum1 (not her!!), & it has to be in front of her face, that we luvv their shoes / top / skirt / jeans / uggs. and then look at her outfit in subtle disgust. lol. but if she actually wears something cute then we should make a big deal out of complimenting it and tell her she should wear stuff like that more often bc it is soooo cute on her. 2) Have like a fashion show - slumber party type thing (an excuse could be that we want to just let out the little girl inside of us whose always wanted to have a fashion show). We tell everyone to bring their fave pj's, dress, swimsuit, summer outfit, fall outfit, spring outfit, winter outfit, casual school clothes, etc. (she will probably wear her dorky stuff) We videotape the fashion show, and then watch it. she will (hopefully) c all our "hawt bods" (lol) and cute clothes. Also, while we watch it, we hafta compliment everyones' clothes and figures except her's. but, if she atually wears something cute, then we should compliment it and say that she should wear stuff like that more often bc is it soooo cute on her. then, she should realize that she is way behind in this whole fashion game. 3) At the slumber party we should all bring cut outs from magazines of the clothes and bodies we want we'll c wat she brings. lets compliment everyones' choices except hers. but! -- if she does bring a cute cut-out we hafta be like "OMG! that would be soooo cute on u!" then, we hav a veggie platter for snack and i'll say "well, if i ever want to get this bod (i hold up a magazine cut out) i gotta start eatin my veggies!" then, hopefully everyone will follow. and she'll c that she should start eating right, too. 4) Also at the slumber party, we should do an excersize video and be like "i gotta work out more!" and make it seem like we think we're fat. then she should realize she should work off her baby fat 5) Also at the slumber party, lol, we should give each other make overs. we could do each other's make up and nails and hair. and she'll c how great and sophisticated she can look with some make up! 6) Also, but we should start wearing make up and perfumes and always have our nails painted and always hav like accessories and stuff. (We shouldn't wear too much bc i find that as making a girl look weak or slutty, but we should try to look more sophisticated and grown-up and stuff.) Let's hope she follows... who knows?-- it might make her more confident. And if she doesn't follow lets point out certain make-up colors and types that would look great on her. And hope she gets them. But i think the whole make-up all the time thing can wait for high school, don't u? PLease help i love my friend dearly but she is going to high school soon and she simply is not ready i hate to be mean but it breaks my heart to see everyone make fun of her (sorrry its so long)

Is it all true about you? You talk like Marlene Dietrich. And you talk like Zizi Jeanmaire. Your clothes are all made by Balmain. And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair. You live in a fancy apartment. Off the Boulevard of St. Michel. Where you keep your Rolling Stones records. And are a friend of Sacha Distel. But where do you go to my lovely? When your all alone in your bed? Tell me the thoughts that surround you. I want to look inside your head. I've seen all your qualifications. You got from the Sorbonne. And the painting you stole from Picasso. Your loveliness goes on and on, yes it does. When you go on your summer vacation. You go to Juan les Pines. With your carefully designed topless swimsuit. You get an even suntan on your back and on your legs. When the snow falls you're found in St. Moritz. With the others of the jet-set. And you sip your Napoleon Brandy. But you never get your lips wet. But where do you go to my lovely? When your all alone in your bed? Tell me the thoughts that surround you. I want to look inside your head. Your name is heard in high places. You know the Aga Khan. He sent you a racehorse for X-Mas . And you kept it just for fun for a laugh - ha ha. They say when you get married. It'll be to a millionaire. But they don't realize where you came from. And I wonder if they really care, give a damn? But where do you go to my lovely? When your all alone in your bed? Tell me the thoughts that surround you. I want to look inside your head. I remember the backstreets of Naples. 2 children begging in rags. Both touched w. a burning ambition. To shake off their lowly brown tags, yes they try. So look into my face Marie-Claire. And remember just who you are. Then go and forget me forever. 'Cause I know you still bear the scar, deep inside, yes you do. I know where you go to my lovely. When your all alone in your bed. I know the thoughts that surround you. 'Cause I can look inside your head.

How to achieve Esti Ginzburg's haircolor? Hi guys! I found the model Esti Ginzburg and she has the hair I have been dreaming of all my life!!!!!!!! Now all you hairdressers, please tell me how can I get the exact same haircolor as she has? Bcs I keep trying to explain my hairdressers but they are never able to do it. Here are pics of her: http://i.cdn.turner.com/si/pr/subs/swimsuit/images/09_esti-ginzburg_13.jpg http://www.thevine.com.au/resources/IMGRELATED/160209043146_09_esti-ginzburg_10.jpg http://a11news.com/images/esti-ginzburg-bikini.jpg http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h291/vngallery1/Esti_Ginzborg2.jpg I think it is not her original hair color, she probably had it hair painted (baliage) bcs she has beautiful blonde highlights at just the right places, but please correct me if I am wrong with the technique she has on her hair... My original hair color is about 2 shades darker than her eyebrow. I am not sure what kind of blonde this is, is this golden blonde,beige blonde, cool or warm blonde? And what color is the base color? Can you tell me exact numbers (I know hairdressers use numbers to determine colors)? I hope you can help me...oh and this is me before I started to ever dye my hair, so you can see my original hair color: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=518878&l=e63960b8b5&id=585768052 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=518879&l=290ed16ab0&id=585768052 Thanks in advance! Some additional details: I am not asking if you like the hair or not or which color suits me the most. I want this one, thanks. And I know it is not the best to seek help here but in real life as said, noone could recreate it (yes I took pictures) the look for me. In the town where I live, there are not professional salons with hairstylists like probably in the US...

Would the United States Military be able to help the women in Afghanistan? Miss America is a junior at Portland State University, hoping to eventually get a Master's degree in Bioethics. Miss Afghanistan is forbidden from receiving any education at all, and cannot read or write. Miss America has worked as a lab assistant at both the Oregon Health Sciences University and the University of Puget Sound. Miss Afghanistan is forbidden from working. Miss America's father is an engineer. Her mother is a teacher. Miss Afghanistan's father was shot by a gang of Taliban militants. Her mother begs for bread scraps since she cannot work or remarry. Miss America wowed the judges by singing a Puccini aria, "O Mio Babbino Caro". Miss Afghanistan is forbidden from singing or even listening to music of any kind. Miss America will be traveling the nation nonstop during her reign. Miss Afghanistan cannot leave her house without a male family member, cannot drive, and cannot be out after dark. Miss America is an advocate for breast cancer research. Miss Afghanistan cannot be treated by a male doctor, and for all practical purposes has no access to medical treatment of any kind. Miss America can date, marry, or divorce anyone she chooses. Miss Afghanistan will be stoned to death if caught in the company of a male outside of her family. She is likely to be sold into an arranged marriage to a man who already has two wives. Miss America wears sunscreen on the beach to keep from burning. Miss Afghanistan cannot live in a house with windows unless they are painted black. Since she must wear a burqua outside, her pale translucent skin has not seen a ray of sunlight in years. Miss America could have been disqualified if her swimsuit did not meet pageant standards. Miss Afghanistan can be flogged if the holes in the mesh covering her face are too large. Miss America will decide how many children, if any, she wants to have. Miss Afghanistan will be pregnant 3-4 times more often than Miss America. Unfortunately, her babies are 25 times more likely to die in the first year. One out of four will not see their 5th birthday. Miss America is majoring in speech communications at PSU. Miss Afghanistan is forbidden from speaking in public. Miss America is 21. Since the U.S. life expectancy for women is 80, she's still a very young woman. Miss Afghanistan is also 21. But since the life expectancy for an Afghan woman is 43, next year she will be "over-the-hill". (Besides having a shockingly short life expectancy overall, Afghanistan is one of the only countries in the world in which women have a shorter life expectancy than men.) Miss America is a beautiful, intelligent woman and everyone knows it. Miss Afghanistan could be a beautiful, intelligent woman... but nobody will ever know it.

Am I overreacting to this? Ok, I have an in-home daycare provider who I really like, she is a sweetheart and my daughter loves her. There are a few things that have upset me. I came to pick my daughter up one night at 8pm and she was walking around her house in her bikini. She said "Oh I laid out today while the kids were sleeping" You mean to tell me you left my 3 month old daughter inside with 5 other children ranging from 3 mo to 4 years while you "got some sun"? Also at some point between say 4 pm and 8 you couldn't find 2 minutes to put on something over your swimsuit? I didnt make a big deal about it but I made it clear I wasnt super happy about it either. The next day I came to pick the baby up and she had done it again. So I decided to try to find a new sitter. Childcare is impossible to find in the area so in the mean time we decided to leave her where she is. A couple of weeks later I got off early and snuck over there so I could see what she was doing. Her 4 year old answered the door and she was nowhere to be seen. My baby was laying on a blanket on the floor with 2 other babies. The 3 toddlers were running around. I got all of my things together and still no sign of the sitter. I asked her daughter where she was and she told me her mommy was painting her room! Seriously. I called up the stairs and it still took a good bit of hollering for her to notice I was there. Now my husband thinks I should sit her down and talk to her and give her another chance. I feel like her actions show poor judgment and either she will get sneakier or just show poor judgment on other things. Am I over reacting? I am just so afraid that one of the other children can hurt my baby and she will have no clue if she isn't watching them closely. Plus 6 children is a lot for 1 person.

Another story question? Please help!? Okay so i added a little more things and i need some more comments. Should something happen between Violet and Roger or Melissa and Roger? Should there be a shark attack? If so to who? Roger, Melissa, Violet, or Peter? What else should happen in the story? What should be the mural of the story? Please help :) I'd appriecate it :) Thanks “Hurry up!” I yelled from the car window as my little brother came running down the steps dragging his SpongeBob towel behind. He jumped into the back of my convertible and we drove off. “Come on” Melissa said as we laid down our beach towels on the warm sand. It was a bright sunny day in July and nobody was at the beach down in Florida. Turns out Melissa, Peter and I were alone. “You know you want to go talk to him” She pointed her freshly painted finger nail towards Roger, the lifeguard. I’ve been in love with him since the third grade, but never told anyone besides Melissa. “Shut up” I spat and popped a grape into my mouth. The warm juice flowed down my throat making me cough it back up. “You know I would only make a fool of myself.” Melissa squeezed out her tanning lotion onto her palm and rubbed it into her arm. She didn’t say anything because she knew it was true. “See, you believe me.” I turned over onto the towel and let the sun warm my back. “No, it’s not that. It’s just that I’m kind of sick of you not showing who you really are. You could have a chance with him if you tried.” I didn’t feel like talking back so I just said “Ill think about it” and then after successfully eating a grape, I walked down to the water. Dipping my feet in the gray misty water felt good after walking on the hot sand. I made sure to keep an eye on Peter who was playing with the sea shells on the bottom of the ocean floor. He was 2 when he almost drowned in our backyard swimming pool. It’s only been 4 years ago. It feels like yesterday. I close my eyes and remember that awful day. I was 14 at the time and it was a late June day when the sun was just about to go down. My dad and mom went into the house with my Aunt Sophia and my Uncle Randy letting me watch over Peter as he swam. I picked him up and put him on the edge of the pool and told him to wait while I got a towel. When I came back, Peter wasn’t on the ledge anymore. I immediately flung off my sandals and jumped over the side of the pool. Frantically, I yanked him up by his Scooby doo swimsuit and gave him CPR right away. He soon started breathing and coughing up water. That’s the closest I’ve ever been to death or someone dying in front of me. I remember his purple/blue face and his blood red eyes…. “Violet, Violet!” I turned around to see Melissa tugging at my pony tail with a bright red lollypop in her hand. “What?” “Look” She said and yanked my pony tail the other way so I could turn my head. “What the hell!” I made a grunting sound as I stood up in the water and knowing that I just crushed a million little bugs, I swiped at my foot then dipped my hand back in the water. She turned around and saw that I wasn’t paying attention so she pulled the string to my bikini top and I immediately fell into the water. She was going to get it. I tied the soft lace back up the stood up. “What?” She pointed to Roger sitting on the lifeguard’s chair. “And?” I exclaimed not surprised that Melissa was going to show me something pointless like she always does. “And, he’s wet! Cant you see?!” “And?” “Erg. Look at that family right there.” She pointed to a white family holding there little girl. “Okay.” “So he just saved her from drowning!” Melissa squealed with delight and then turned back to me to just see me sitting back down into the water. Her smile faded, almost slowly like a cartoon. I looked back at Peter still playing with the sea shells. At least he was okay. That’s all I cared about. “You’re so lame. You should go talk to him.” Melissa walked back over to her towel, brushed off the sand stuck to her feet, and applied more tanning lotion to her arms. She gave me a dirty look before putting on her sun glasses and lying down. I tried to make myself feel better by saying that it’s my life not hers and that Roger probably wouldn’t even care if I talked to him. Besides, I have to keep my eye on Peter. Thanks again :) Help soon please :D Do you like it so far? Please help!

Can you use fabric paint on a swimsuit - will it get ruined because of chlorine in swimming pools?

Whats wrong with this guy? He is messed up...? He is messed up...okay he was my friend for about 2 years. His gf recently broke up with him. I have noticed this pattern. Every time he and a gf breaks up he goes for the closest girl to him. I don't think he can go a week without a gf. He is going for me now and I don't like it. He keeps saying I'm cute but that's the least of it. We will get on facebook and I will say "what are you doing?" and he will say " Thinking about you and me in bed and how good of a partner you would be" or I will say "I am painting my nails" and he will say "Yeah me too I am painting two circles on each nail to represent something" he told my friend the other day that he wanted to go skinny dipping with me and told her that I would look good in a swimsuit. It's really creepy. I am not that kind of girl at all. He is really mean to my friend too. Once he told her he loved her and she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen and then the next day he told her he did not want to talk to her anymore and he talks bad about her to me but I always stick up for her and he just tries to tell me different. I have been trying to avoid him and stuff but he keeps texting me perverted crap and sending me sick messages on facebook. What should I do? He was my friend but I am not so sure anymore.... I told him he needs to stop because I dont like it and he said "If you can't accept me for who I am then we shouldn't be friends this is my personality" then he got mad at me...weirdo...O.o
