Its especially hard when they try to give you advice on acne, as if they can relate. Perhaps they can... but it simply feels unfair. Try telling her how hurtful her comments are, she could just be ignorant of the situation. 

Its nice to see a lot of virgins on here.... if that doesn't sound creepy. Being 16 and in high school a lot of people I know have had sex and of course I still respect them and hold them dear as friends, but its still a shock since I haven't even kissed a guy. Some guys I know would think I was prude for wanting to keep my virginity. Originally I wanted to wait till marriage- and that would be great- however if I was in a loving relationship for more than year or 2 and we been through a lot of ups and downs, then I would reconsider. 

I simply want a mature and happy relationship, which doesn't really go along with some shallow gf/bf relationships right now. Its either not right or just plain awkward. And usually its just plain awkward. 

I have a lot of respect for a guy who is still a virgin. Better to be the innocent guy then to be the who scores all the time And you're still young so don't fret. Fret at 50. Panic then. 

I just starting using something like it before I go to bed however you really don't want to simply pour it out and put it on. I mix a couple cap full's in warm green tea and apply it so the effects aren't that harsh but it works and the tea keeps my skin calm. So far its seems good. But I've only done it for a few days so I can't really see anything different. 

I totally understand your situation. Im sixteen and I'm sure I have the worst skin after all my friends. It feels completely awful. :/

I don't have any magical remedy because my skin is still really bad and I have a horrible picking problem as well. I will get super close to the mirror just to find clogged pores and attack them. I know that if I didn't do it my skin wouldn't be as bad but there is always the "what if I don't" and break out. Its a super hard conflict. 

I wish you the best of luck though and send my strongest sympathy!
