find another girl, ask her to use some blemish cover, girls can have big honking zits and cover them up really good! Dont try to do it yourself you'll end up with makeup all over and looking like a queen.

You might not have heard of this stuff, but your mom probably has.
Witch Hazel
Tell (i mean ask) her to go to the drug store and get some. This stuff nocks down the swelling on those little burgers like nothing else.:)

2 days is a LONG time...you'll be fine

BUT , if it's still not looking good, just pick up a flesh tone makeup stick thingy (or maybe your mom has one). it's not THAT un-macho to put on some makeup..it'll make all the redness go away. i mean, dudes on TV wear makeup all the time

Heat a small sewing needle with a match. Insert about 1/8 inch directly in the center. Yes it will hurt a bit. Squeeze several times from all directions. If it all does not come out wait 24 hours and it will all rise to the top and easily be extracted with a few squeezes the next day. Dab with alcohol and wash several times a day with hot soap and water. Works every time :)

Proven methods that worked for me:

1. Get a medical alcohol swab stick it on the bastard and leave it pressed on there until it turns white making sure you feel a good burning sensation.. once dried out you can pop it or let it heal..

2. Wash your hands. Get some hydrogen peroxide and coat the infected area with it.. then use two fingers and pop it completely. Apply more peroxide and enjoy! :D

3. Bite the bullet and go into the women's makeup aisle and buy some coverup.. or borrow/steal it from a female friend preferably of matching skin tone..

4. Accept the damn pimple as a normal thing and stop turning this forum into a Stridex or Noxema commercial!

5. Preventative measures.. wash your face with soap only once a week and water all the rest and otherwise take a shower everyday, never touch your face ever (you'll tend to get pimples where you touch your face most often), and never ever ever use Noxema that stuff causes more pimples than it kills!!

Happy to say I don't get pimples anymore but I used to get them all the time when I was 17.. ah.. relief.. ;)

Dude, you are ugly anyways, one zit isn't going to make a bit of difference. ;)

Seriously dude, if it doesn't shrink by the date the first thing you should do is comment about it. Don't try to hide it or the girl will think you are being dumb. Just make a joke about the big zit and she will think you are funny and you will get some good lovin!

Just bandage it up and say you were wounded trying to stop a robbery*, what a hero.

*You were potentially being 'robbed' of a worry free first date.
