Sometimes I am happy that I am not as ugly as say, a Slaton sister or Shaygnar or whatever, but then I remember I am just a few levels above. I hate PCOS and I hate society for making me believe I should be pretty above all else. I was such a happy kid.

I wish I could just buy a boyfriend.
I'd pay someone to pretend to be my bf just like an escort then take him to meet my parents and friends, take some pics together to prove my 'taken' status and never actually having to do anything.
I've never felt like having a relationship or cared about sex all that much, the reason I want a bf is because I care a lot about what people think and I'm just tired of being hit on and disrespected by men. Thinking about being with guys I know make me physically cringe tho, I'm not attracted to women either.

I want to finally slowly start outing myself to my friends and family as lesbian and how I have loving gf and how precious she is to me, just like everyone does it.
Only worry is my mother who thinks having gay child is disgrace and failure as a mother. Like it would be starting a war with her and probably her side of family avoiding me, but I don't even really care I am not even close in any way with them, seeing them once a year.

>>248947>>248954>>248959I was angry when I wrote my original post but I've calmed down now and realize it's not such a big deal. We're going to just start the party without him but hold off on the cake until he gets home.
I guess I was more annoyed by the fact that this is a recurring problem with him, like for example he never wants to reserve anything or buy tickets beforehand for anything because he's always changing his plans on the go. Whereas I'm a bit of a control freak and prefer to make reservations whenever possible even when they're not required. Plus I always end up having to wait for him because he's always like "this'll take 5 minutes" and it'll always take like 45 minutes… he sometimes makes our friends wait too which I hate even more, like I start to feel embarrassed as if it's my fault… bleh.

Living with my bf is like living with a teenager when it comes to chores and domestic responsibilities. The only thing I can say for him is that he pays rent on time and does his own laundry sometimes without my asking–although the loads occupy the machines for days.
I can't rely on him to tidy, clean, or do anything else without a prompt. And sometimes even when I ask he half asses things.
It's always
>I forgot.
>I'll do it later.
>I did it already (no)
>It didn't look that bad to me
These sound like passive aggressive excuses teenagers make to get their parents to do their chores.
Today I woke up and the kitchen was absolutely skanky.
I fell asleep on the couch, but bf stayed up to play video games until at least 6am.
Did he use any of that time to do dishes or even put away condiments from dinner? N-O.
He left it knowing I would do it.
Uncapped condiment bottles, trash not taken out, unwashed cookware and utensils, unran dishwasher, filthy counters, filthy stovetop, unswept floor, part of the fridge that he broke off days ago still lying about, rotting leftovers bf said he'd eat, and the list goes on.
I'm a very clean person and bf knows this shit triggers me. Foolishly, I used to try cleaning everyday but it just caused me to have a mental breakdown cause the place would be pigged up by the next day anyway. So I try not to be a "nag"; letting the place go for a day or two but by a couple days of being cool I expect cleaning shit to be together. But no. Obviously this doesn't work out 9 times out of 10.
So I spent my entire morning cleaning before work.
To be clear–if I was some spoilt bitch who stayed at home and spent hubby's paychecky I might be okay with being his maid. However I work 40 hours, and would like to actually relax when I'm home but I digress…
I had to touch, handle, and smell such gross shit that I was cussing a storm while doing so all out of frustration. Bf heard me but didn't come into the kitchen until 1pm because he knew the state had pissed me off.
When he finally came in I had a loud, angry tone towards him. I told him to take out the trash and scrub the bin with bleach because it was nasty from him having put garbage in there (""""accidentally"""") without a liner and ignoring it.
He said "Well you don't have to yell."
Really?
He doesn't have to spend every waking moment at home playing video games!!
In fact, he could proactively help out by doing small tasks and chores so things don't buildup so badly in the first place!
I should have said that but all I could think to reply with was to not invalidate my feelings by policing my tone.
My mother would have HAD MY ASS if I so much as left a dish in the sink, and then have an attitude about her scolding me? I would have been dead where I stood.
I hate how he takes such a victim stance when I'm rightfully angry and he's too uncomfortable to admit he's wrong. He does the task but never apologizes for what this shit does to me mentally. Then he tries to butter me up and get touchy with me after but I get too disgusted because I know that's all manipulation.
I just hate it. Our relationship would be fine otherwise if he was motivated and not a slob with excuses.

>>249176Your boyfriend sounds like my ex-fiancé. Apparently I was the biggest nag because I found filth
triggering and wasn't impressed that he emptied the bins once every 2 weeks. Either get him on board with pulling his weight or ditch him he sounds incredibly selfish and immature. You'll be stuck being his mother. For 2 years my ex was unemployed and sat all day while I was at work for 40 hours a week playing video games. Never once did I come home to a prepared meal or a tidy home. Most days he would go to his ma's for lunch and only return home when he knew I was in. At the weekends when I finally had free time he would arrange trips away camping with his mates 'for a break'. I dumped him in 2014 and he still hasn't got a decent job and lives at his parents. I doubt he is ever going to move out.

My boyfriend and his sister are very close, and honestly, when they are together they can be pretty mean. It's mostly his sister.
I guess sometimes our personalities don't match. She's incredibly outward and aggressive, and very self-centered. I'm very passive. There's a lot of little things that get between us. She can often be very harsh with me and it hurts my feelings, but I can't confront her about it because I'm afraid of her (she tends to be very confrontational and is not opposed to yelling at people and insulting them all in the name of "honesty". So I tend to talk about my feelings to my boyfriend, and he often isn't much help because he doesn't know how to talk about feelings. So usually I end up feeling stuck and alone. I don't want to bad-mouth his sister but I don't know what to do about it.
Today, I wasn't feeling well so I sent them a message that I was sorry I couldn't go out with them tonight, and that I just wanted to let them know I love them and care about them very much. They completely ignored my message and just went on talking. I felt pretty bad about it and said that to my boyfriend. He brushed me off and said that they are just not "emotionally receptive". Am I crazy that it's pretty rude to not say anything back to a person when they tell you they care about you? Or am I just blowing everything out of proportion?
I know this seems overblown, but there are a lot of little things every day like this that drive me crazy. I am currently organizing a first meeting with a therapist because I can't seem to regulate my emotions and I want to learn more positive coping mechanisms. They make me feel like a crazy person, to be perfectly honest, and are the main reason why I'm seeking a therapist.
I could feel my emotions rising after I talked to my bf and I got mad and was pretty passive aggressive about tonight. I feel bad for being passive aggressive, but I don't know how to apologize when I'm still upset. I want to tell my boyfriend I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how. I am currently just not touching my phone because I don't want to talk to him while I'm still mad. I am nervous they are talking badly about me behind my back right now and I don't know what to do.

>>249176>>249178Unfortunately, men (and just people in general) expect others to be their maids. It's not only just our boyfriends/fiances/husbands; lazy people will expect you to clean up after them, and will act like you are an insane, raging harpy because you spend every waking moment cleaning up their filth and have the
audacity to ask them to lend a hand with it.
I really believe it's just that people who developed good cleaning habits and a strong sense of ethic will be exploited and manipulated by people who would willingly live in pig stys, if they were so allowed. Ever since I moved out at 18, I have been the "maid" of the house. My mother and father instilled in me the importance of cleanliness; not only for health and hygiene, but also if you keep things clean and well cared for, they will last longer and you will save money. So when I began living with people whose mothers cleaned up after them their whole lives (or just never bothered to make them do chores,) I ended up picking up all the slack.
It's physically and mentally exhausting to constantly pick up after the people around you, and receive not thanks but spite. I can't believe that my roommates would constantly complain about me having to move the chairs to sweep, or that I would take dirty dishes from around the house to clean them. I have given up on asking for help, even from my boyfriend. I feel so defeated.
I know this isn't helpful to either of you, but just know that you are not alone in your struggle. I have so much more empathy for my mom now.

>>249178Fuck anon, I'm sorry you went through that nonsense. The part about him going camping with his mates for a "break" is the worst–like bitch, break from
what you don't work! Lol.
Although mine acts eerily similar. Every moment he's not at work he's either plopped in front of the tv/phone with games, or he's out with his friends drinking, trivia, and/or karaoke.
I mean if I asked him to cancel his plans for time with me he would, but of course that still makes me look bad and controlling.
I just don't know what these men are trying to escape from exactly? I'd be more understanding if he worked a super demanding job, with long hours, and had a lot of extraneous responsibilities outside work.
But he's a bartender at a restaurant and sometimes doesn't work a full 40 a week. If he feels under pressure then I don't know where the fuck from that's so unusual from what I, or any other normal person, feels. Yet I still manage to not be messy as do most other people.
I think this anon
>>249183 is on to something about lazy people always finding someone to low key manipulate.

>>249182>>249192I don't think you're crazy anon. Being someone who's extremely passive myself, I can understand why you're hurt by their actions.
I don't think it's fair for your boyfriend to not care about your feelings just because it's his sister.
There was no reason to ignore you and brush off your feelings because they're "not emotionally receptive". That's bullshit and you're not crazy for thinking that they were rude, because they were. It sounds like they just use that as an excuse because they're assholes who don't give a shit and don't want to change.
A therapist will be good, especially since you said you were feeling very alone. Hopefully they can help you with the problems you're facing, and I hope your boyfriend and his sister can realize that they hurt you and apologize. I'd keep pushing how you feel, because he needs to recognize that he either treats you with respect and acts like he gives a shit, or you should leave and find someone who won't make you feel alone.
Also, don't apologize. You're not the one who should.
No. 249219
>>249213Thanks for your response, anon. It feels better to have someone who understands.
He sent me a message saying he was sorry that he hurt my feelings and he feels terrible that I feel so sad sometimes, and asked what he could do to help me. He's generally sweet and tries to see my side of things. I think he's just a bit emotionally stupid.
I don't think his sister will apologize, though. She does stuff like be rude or hurtful to me often and she's never apologized. (Most of the girls in our friend group are like this, and it makes me feel very awkward.)
It's nice to know that someone else doesn't think I'm crazy. I honestly think that it's mostly his sister who I have the most problems with. She's so aggressive and competitive and she usually talks to me like she's talking down to me. I really want to be her friend, but it's been difficult.
Even one of my other friends has told me that she acts very strangely around me and my boyfriend; my friend said she noticed that every time my bf gave me attention, his sister would pull him away and try to get him to pay attention to her instead. It's a very weird thing and I don't understand how to deal with her.
Thanks for telling me I should keep pushing my feelings. It's really hard for me to think I deserve to be respected and treated like I matter by anyone.
I'm sorry, I know I'm rambling. This is why I'm seeking therapy, haha. There's so much going on in my head and it's hard to put together. Thanks again, anon.

Welp, stayed up all night watching weight loss youtube videos.
It got me browsing through my folders of old cell phone pictures I saved from 2014-2016.
I was 100 pounds lighter then. Super active, I ran and went to the gym regularly. I never ate because I was happy and not stressed. I had just spent the previous two years losing 80 pounds. Also finished my grad program and had a lot of hope, a lot of free time too.
A couple years and a soul-suckin', sedentary job later, mixed with some depression and anger, and I'm saying hello to the obesity train again. Toot toot.
I think I've lost a collective total of ~400 pounds throughout my life and I've rebounded every pound and then some.
The sad part is recalling how I thought of myself at the time when the old photos were taken. l remember thinking I was a fat sack of shit and being so self-conscious, when undeniably it was my peak. I was healthy. I had no logical reason to feel that negatively, and now I wish I could go back to that tomorrow. But I can't, it's too late and now any progress will take another series of years.
Yet it's getting to the point where I'm miserable, again, and hate how I look, again, and facing the choice of either losing weight or committing sudoku…again. There really isn't a choice unless I wanna say 'fuck everything' and wind up on My 600 Pound Life eventually.
I downloaded the myfitness app again, but I still hate myself. It all feels like a silly game that I play myself with.
Maybe I'd feel less lonely and hopeless if I had a solid support system. Or maybe a fellow fattie to talk to?
Bf acts indifferent about my weight because he loves me, but doesn't try to actively be sexual with me anymore unless he comes home plastered, which I refuse. And I mean, I feel gross naked regardless of the fluff he tells me.
My parents are both overweight since they've quit smoking cigs, but they're trying to get better too. They mean well, but they don't set good examples and they always downplay my feelings about my weight because they're christian and think that looks don't matter. Whilst society and life screams at my face that looks do matter.
At that–I'm the only one in the family that's ever lost a significant amount of weight so there's no advice they could give me. They actually believe in a lot of myths.
Friends (esp people who first knew me when I was thin after weight loss) have ghosted me these days. Mostly because I shut myself in the apartment when I'm not at work, and my no-life work schedule makes that easier to achieve. A friend of mine tried to make me feel better and told me how I'm such a nice person and great friend, because when she first met me I was "so pretty" that she thought I was mean and stuck up. It's well-intentioned, but I couldn't help but smirk at the backhanded implication that I was no longer pretty and thus she felt less threatened around me. Ouch.
Other times I get unsolicited advice or weird fad bullshit, "Hey anon, try these pills that make you shit to lose weight!" All I can do is meekly say t-thanks lest I look like an ungrateful, know it all fatty fatso.
I know how to lose weight and I know what to do.
I just hate myself too much. Maybe subconsciously I'm not convinced I'm worth it. Maybe I can't deal with stress and how my life's turned out career-wise so I binge eat to feel better.
I'm not sure.

>>249240Oh anon, I have been struggling with weight as well lately. I managed to lose weight around 2011 and stayed like this until 2015. After that, everything basically went to shit. I didn't gain toomuch, but it's noticeable and it makes me feel very, very bad about myself. I started trying to lose it but it's hard. All these years, I stopped eating when I was stressed, and now… I suddenly started eating because it helped me coping. Not good.
It's a shitty thing that your friend said. It's not good for you to stay in the apartment all day. It's also because your fridge and all your food is there too. I tend to overeat when I stay at home. I don't know how the weather conditions in your region are, but have you tried playing PoGo? It helped me shed weight and was a good and fun way to go out. I even met some people through it.

It's exhausting dealing with someone so selfish and lazy that sometimes it was easier to just get on with life than completely uproot all our foundations (we were engaged planning for a future, at one point we were obviously in love).
Perhaps if you didn't have such a toxic mindset you could get close to a person and figure out that normal people are empathetic and give others chances.
Are you also bemused I started dating someone not selfish, who has a high paying engineer job and cooks me dinner and cleans after himself? Guess since I'm not a piece of shit I was able to naturally move on and find someone better for me.

I used to be the smartest kid in my class, from elementary school all the way to high school and I have an IQ above 130. But that doesn't mean anything anymore, because I'm in fucking medschool and even though my dream is to become a child psychiatrist it's destroying my life.
I had to do my first year twice (which is common in my country, because that first year is hell on earth with only a 15% success rate) and it's like it's blasted my brains. Ever since, I've had an awful time focusing on things. I've been suffering from depression for now almost 3 years and it's driving me insane. I'm currently in my second 3rd year because I missed too many finals the first time. I got in a psych ward earlier this year and while it helped me not killing myself, it didn't do much more. I feel like a disgusting slug unable to study for more than 1 hour a day and it's stressing me the fuck out. Plus my dad says I'm going to be expelled if I cant study more (which is false, thank god my uni is not that harsh, but is still awful to hear everyday).
I work at the hospital 3 mornings per week. While my patients usually like me, I can never get along with my classmates and I don't know how to make friends. The only friends I have live 700 km away from me.
I don't know what to do anymore. It feels like my brain is nothing more than scrambled eggs and I feel like neither my psychiatrist and therapist understand how much pain I'm in. I don't want to end it? I just don't want to suffer anymore.

It's gonna be ramadan soon. It sucks because while I'm north African and living in Europe, I never considered myself Muslim but everyone assume I am, so a lot of Muslims are going to ask me why I'm not fasting, or will yell at me if I don't fast, or even insult me or threaten me if I eat in public. It's going to be annoying at best, and since these assholes just dont know how to mind their own business and think asking very personal questions is polite and good small talk, they'll maybe try to ask me about things like if I'm not fasting because I'm on my period or if I have health problems, and if so, what those problems could be, etc. It'll be a pain in the ass because during that time I'll either work and I'll have to eat during breaks or I'll be on holidays and I'll want to go out with friends and maybe go to restaurants. I don't know if anyone here will be in that situation too, if so then complain with me, I feel like I'm the only one in that situation sometimes.
At work there are a lot of moderate Muslims who will fast, so I'm sure they will be awful at work because of the heat, the fatigue and the fact that they won't eat and drink all day long, so it'll be even worse than the previous years too, now that I think about it. I hope nobody will pass out because of their stupid behavior.

Today is a better day, I was in quite a state last night.
So far I haven't logged any calories, cause I'm genuinely not that hungry, and took some vitamins.
I legit asked myself if I was actually hungry instead of eating just cause I'm used to it.
I'm gonna try to break my stress eating habit. I've decided that instead of heading to the drive thru to binge on fast food when I get time off my shift, I'm going to go to the nearby park. To read, walk, whatever.
I'm there right now but I'm contemplating it because it's 90 degrees today with high humidity lol. Either way it's better than stuffing my face like usual I guess.
I love cooking and I make a lot of Korean food. I'm going to have leftover pork wraps for dinner but keep it at a reasonable portion. It's sliced, braised pork belly that you wrap in a lettuce/sesame leaf and dunk in a chili garlic sauce. It's super delicious. Myfitness app actually has my calorie budget waaaaay higher than I expected, and I think I can best it and then some.
So far so good.I'd like to post again in another month. Maybe in the fitness thread next time around!

So a couple years back this girl in our friendship group made it clear she had issues with me and didn't like me, some of our friends always believed it was out of jealousy because she tried to turn people against me over it
Fast forward a few years and I've made some really good friends through college and she is also friends with them so we talk it over and she apologises and we "resolve" it
However, she is really strange about it. She'll be really lovely to me but also it feels like she always has to one-up me at everything. If I make a joke, she'll have to say it but louder until someone laughs and says she's so funny. If I start dressing or doing my makeup and hair a certain way she'll do the exact same. Her hair is dyed the color that mine is naturally as well now. Hell, even on social media she seems to feel the need to outdo me because as soon as I took a profile picture in a pose that got a lot of compliments she deleted her old one, took a new one in the same pose except with a bunch of Snapchat filters to try and be more extra and then said we matched but she said it in a sort of smug way and it was weird.
I also know how she treats people behind closed doors as she is ever so lovely to this one guy she lives with in public but then messages him bullying him in private (he has shown me these messages and her usual tone of uwu is completely abandoned)
I want to believe that this time round we are friends and I do like her despite this weird copying thing because I assume it's an insecurity and we've had some pretty deep talks about that, but it is still a bit worrying because of the past. She says she's different now but then if we talk and we aren't around other friends of ours I feel like she avoids me.
I don't know how to take her copying me either, it's flattering that she finds my style and aesthetic and even my personality and humor nice but it's also really not fun when she has to parade it about like it's hers and use it for attention and validation
I like her and I think she is much better than she gives herself credit for and I want us to be friends but it reminds me of high school when this girl I knew then would go to even further efforts to copy me and it turned out she was using me so my worries about this are a bit magnified
I don't want to hurt or upset her but I don't want to make effort if the truth is she genuinely dislikes me and is just being kind to me for the sake of being polite
Why is America like this?

>>249445I would look at it through the lens of her having insecurities.
Clearly she's jealous of you, anon. Now that doesn't mean she hates you, but in her mind she's telling herself she can't measure up to you and I'm sure that harbors some conflicting, sour feelings even though that's not your fault. I say that because if she hated you she wouldn't want to imitate you and be like you–but that part is just my tinfoil.
Don't beat yourself up or preoccupy your mind with her as if there's any way to fix what's going on in other peoples' heads.
Keep a healthy distance from her, but be friendly and cordial as being nice doesn't require much effort. Maybe over time she'll learn to trust you and treat you as less of a rival.
And if she doesn't? That's fine too. It would be no skin off your bones because you'd walk away with knowing you treated her nicely even if she chose not to accept your friendship.
One thing I wouldn't do is confront her about it directly, she may see that as aggression and get defensive. It could ruin the process is all I'm saying.
No. 249450
>>249449I've been trying to look at it that way too, and maybe this is from my own idiocy or insecurities but what I don't understand is why she'd be jealous of me- she's taller than me and I'm short and people think I'm really cute but I don't feel that pretty and I am incredibly awkward at times. Sorry if that is self-centered to wonder!
In the past, she decided within a week that she wanted the friends I was making to not like me, to me that definitely meant she disliked me. She got really funny about one friend being my friend and would get jealous about that so she'd do all she could to make that friend stay away from me.
I couldn't confront her on it, I want her to be happy, but it is frustrating when she has to bring any attention to her as soon as anyone in the room is listening to me or talking to me.
No. 249454
>>249450>but what I don't understand is why she'd be jealous of meMaybe that's your own insecurities talking lol. Who knows, maybe you have a style, quality, or look that's admirable in her eyes?
But don't worry anon, I ask myself the same questions about some of the girls who were jealous of me too.
Jealousy is a really strange thing and it makes people do some harsh things. Maybe she felt like she would lose friends to you, so she did those mean things out of desperation.
Either way I know where you're coming from and these situations are always really frustrating and tricky to handle. I empathize.

Low key I'm sad that my boyfriend's family is…frankly, scummy.
I was the only child and I don't have an extended family, so whoever I dated I always wanted to get along with their parents/siblings just so I could feel more connected.
Bf's lived with me ever since we first met yet I've never once met his mother.
His father died of Parkinson's at a young age. The father came from a distinguished family and never married his mother it's not a secret that he stuck his dick in her crazy and the pregnancy was accidental but she kept bf as a money ticket as she would with his sisters that she birthed from different men. The father's side of the family was completely estranged from my bf as a result.
The first year I was with bf, I was supposed to meet his mother during a holiday at her house. I drove 3 hours out there with bf in tow only for her to refuse us coming over last minute because she decided her son had said something to hurt her feelings about money she owed him. She ruined my holiday and it forced me to drive 3 hours back the same day in snow.
She's never once reached out to me even though she knows who I am on facebook. She's intellectually stunted, so if her son makes her feel inferior by just using long words, I unintentionally would too. She's extremely jealous of her own son and is upset that he's made more of himself. She especially dislikes how I have given him a great life and that he has a great relationship with my parents. My parents are almost like surrogates to him, really.
His sisters are kinda shit too.
One is a morbidly obese single mother of two on welfare. She's jealous of us and has made no effort to develop a relationship with me whatsoever. She gets on my nerves because she calls bf whenever she wants to stick her toddler in front of the camera and beg for our money.
She's an emotional manipulator and a person who makes shit decisions. I don't respect her at all.
The other is younger and definitely the smartest of the two. Smart in that I believe she's the only one besides bf to have graduated high school, and she's trying to escape her situation of poverty.
Her answer to the latter is traveling around the country to hook up with men she met online to date/live with them.
I give her a break on that because the truth is she's just trying to escape her circumstances in the only way she knows how.
What irritates me about her is that she tries to use us too. Bf told me yesterday that she had asked him to pick her up at our local airport (not to visit us, we are but the taxi service) and drive her to the train station so she could be en route to the man she's seeing. By that she meant I needed to drive her, it's my car, and hahahaha no.
None of his family ever visits. The rest of his family ignores him no matter how much he reaches out because they're neurotic recluses. Bf's always the one having to travel to see the sisters, and he uses my job perk to get a plane ticket to do so. There's just no effort on their part whatsoever. They don't even send him cards for his birthday or holidays.
It amazes me that he came from such shit people tbh. Makes me sad too though, they're no boon to my life either.

>>249572Thanks anon. Because of my name and my looks I definitely look North African (though some people think I'm métisse because of my family name, which is weird because I don't look like one) but even my sisters get rude comments from gossipy Muslims and they look like they're White girls and have common first name for French girls, just less often. Good luck to you too, just in case.
>but having grown in a place with many North Africans, aka "la téci", I know how they can be in regards to enforcing their Muslim social normsI bet some of them are the kind of guys who actually don't do anything they're supposed to as Muslims, the kind of guys who smoke, drink, party, insult everyone, etc. but they don't eat pork and fast for ramadan so they think it's all good and they feel like they can call women who don't fast whores.

A bit of a weird rant, but I'm so fucking scared about going to my gyno, since it always hurts like hell. The second time I went I even bled afterwards and felt like peeing constantly (I'm still a virgin, so it's quite clear why the blood…)
I would stop going, but I also always get very sick when on my period, so i need the pill.
Since I've never had sex before I always thought that I might have vaginismus or some shit, but a couple days ago my mother told me that her friend stopped going to the same doc after just one visit because it hurt her too much. That friend is in her 40s and she's had 2 kids, so if even she's in pain, it's quite natural that i'm too.
However, today i got a letter from my gyno saying i haven't had my yearly exam yet. What doctor sends you a letter because of that?! I wanted to try and find a new one, but now it seems like i have to got to her one more time, I honestly feel like crying…
No. 249870
>>249869Dude, just because you got a letter doesn't mean you HAVE to go. Can't you get the pill from your primary doctor instead? You don't need a fucking vaginal exam to get the pill. Plus, I'm assuming you're young, you don't need to be checked every time.
And yeah, if it hurts, try going elsewhere,you shouldn't be bleeding afterwards, that's for sure.
No. 249885
>>249865>I'm way too old to be back at school at my age.False. You are never too old to get more education. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.
I feel you on the rest of the stuff though.. I know it may be tough but just try to stop initiating convo with the guy. It's fine to respond if he texts you, but just don't ever message him and it should eventually fizzle out.
No. 249889
>>249869Yeah nothing obligates you to go Anon. They probably send letters to make sure they get clients coming and signing checks but it doesn't matter. Assuming you don't have any serious issues you could just start going to another gyno with no issue. It's not normal that a gyno would hurt you so much and also do vagina exams if there's no reason to…
Also your family doctor can give you a prescription for the pill usually (I'm in Europe and it's the case) so look into that. I've been on the pill two years and never saw a gyno (couldn't find any that receives new clients in my area, thanks doctor shortage lol) but no issue at all.

>>249865You aren’t too old to learn anon. Going back to school, voluntarily, as an adult is admirable as hell.
Internships sound hard as fuck, but I bet you’ll get better at it as you go along. It’s not an easy balancing act and you’ve got a lot on your plate. Try and cut yourself some slack, if you can.
You’re putting in all this effort to become more productive, more employable, more educated..those are all really great things to work on. There’s folks out here working on the most effective scam for gofundme, to be the sickest and most delicate little snowflake who ever did flake, or how long they can use meth daily and still pretend to function.

>>249957The shitty thing about finding the right antidepressant is that it takes a loooong time. They usually take a couple of months to regulate everything smoothly, since things are so chaotic, chemically speaking in the depressed brain.
It’s a bitch of a ride and I can’t say anything that will truly make it easier other than the end of the ride is fucking great.
It’s a lot like a real rollercoaster, the whole time you’re riding it it’s anxiety-ridden ups and screaming downs but when you get off you just feel intensely good and alive.
Finding the medication that works is exactly like getting off the rollercoaster.
Antidepressants themselves are getting a lot better too. (I’d be long dead without Effexor) and there’s so much more likelihood of getting better when there’s more than just Prozac.
You’ve been stuck on this shitty rollercoaster for way too long, but now that you’re finding the right medication the end is in sight. There’s like one big loop and hill left and you can get off the damn thing and enjoy the theme park.

I'm just gonna go real scatterbrain here 2:50am and can't sleep.
I really hate myself at times, I hate how shy and indecisive I am, how I constantly overthink and worry about others more than my own self , I don't expect it back in return but I feel like there has to be something really wrong with me confidence wise. It's gotten way worse now since I've finished uni and gotten a job.
I've become a shutin near enough again, just work sleep and waste time on netflix or games, I really need to make some friends but its hard to do that back from sqaure one again, it's not even like I can just head out and just join a group or ask people at work.
I hate how fucking shy I am, there is something wrong it might be depression , I dont want to die just disappear like, blink and i'm gone.
there are times I want to die but in a ironic sense to blow off steam.
Christ I'm too old to have these issues its really fucking pathetic , there people younger doing so much more than me. Its not even like I'm starting at 0 its more like -10, its tough even just to force myself up to being normal and a functioning person.
like why do I hate myself, why, I don't get it, I hate seeing my reflection I hate getting my photo taken , I don't feel like I'm there being happy its just a face I'm making , I know I'm not happy , does anyone else know or am I just a burden to them , something awkward to not point out.
I wish at times I could just scream and shout out all this negative shit from myself, as If it would purge myself and I could be ok again.
was i ever happy when I was younger or just ignorant.

>I think I just want to be wanted you know.
I'm scared that all the time I've wasted being this miserable depressed mess could of been fixed years ago and to acknowledge that would mean, I may have been able to be happier longer ago.

>>250084> Lately i watched a documentary about child brides and guess what, men in the comment section arguing that these kids at least aren't gonna end up as sluts, single moms, etc.That's so disgusting and yes, these sort of vile comments appear on completely unrelated videos, news comments section, random topics. There's going to be a guy starting an argument about evil women, bonus points for "evil white women" and then a bunch of dudes agreeing with him.
It's sickening how much hatred we get for just existing. It's obviously an important issue for such guys that we have the rights and liberties to dress how we want and ultimately live how we want if they have this need to protest against this even on completely unrelated videos, articles etc.

I started a new job 2 weeks ago, am now in week 3 and holy shit the head accountant is a massive cunt. She acts all nice around others but stabs them in the back the second she can. She's also in good terms with the two bosses so she thinks she's the shit.
She told me how I'm NOT allowed to know less than the current intern, except she's been working there 3 months before me. So how??
My job is also different than hers, (the accountants) I'm in customer support and shipping. She admits she's not really familiar with my job but the cunt still tries to correct me and tell me what to do.
Today she "supervised" me and the intern while working (it was my first time actually doing work instead of learning the theory and watching). She kept talking to us (but mostly me, since I was working) in such a patronizing way. I literally felt like I was taking a fucking test instead of doing my job and god she kept constantly breathing down my neck, asking questions and making comments how wrong x is and how it would be better to do it her way (we have our own work system). It took us like 20 minutes to complete the transaction/task all because of her. Once she left for a break the intern and I did the task in less than 3 fucking minutes.
She also kept telling me how I don't have to memorize it all by heart, I have the instructions right there! Except she didn't allow me to use or look at them, despite never doing working in that transaction before. She also wants to quiz me tomorrow, but hey, I don't have to know the stuff by heart, only every tiny bit of information about it!
I actually find the job fun and my coworkers are all awesome and super friendly, hell even the bosses are chill and don't take stuff too serious. Except this fat cunt. I'm glad I found out that no one likes her and that they usually avoid her.
I'm still pissed as fuck about the whole thing today and can't believe I have to memorize that crap by tomorrow and what not. Jfc

>>250419Are you me from the past? I had almost the exact situation and position.
I don't know what to tell you, I quit three months and never looked back. Apparently the girl before me quit within one month (wonder why) and I was pushed into the job with stacks of leftover work but also with very little training from my boss and it was the busiest period.
She would tell me things like "don't hesitate to ask me anything, it's better that you ask me even hundreds of times if it will make things clear to you" and then the moment I would ask her something second time to just clarify (because there was no fucking training) then she would start rolling her eyes and making drama "Please don't do this to me, I can't explain things the second time, I can't do everything". She was sure to tell everyone how incompetent I was and I felt like a retard. I honestly thought I was a retard and I was lucky to land my second job thinking I would probably perform poorly but nope, I realized the problem wasn't in me, it was the ex boss.
So, however you perform, don't blame yourself. Do your best but in the meantime start looking for another job. You will hate your life if you continue working there. A terrible boss that breathes down your neck will make your life a living hell no matter how nice your coworkers are, and considering that she's best pals with the higher ups you can't do or complain. I was there, trust me.
Also, she called my parents and wanted to let them know how bad I was at work.
Good luck anon, just do your best and don't let her backstabbing get to you.

I've shown the images to other people and had them agree about what she's doing, I don't think I'm a special snowflake but there are some items/combinations that are personal and outside of style norms that I wear which she has purchased replicas of or worn together in the EXACT same way.
I would never make a big deal of being unique but having someone copy you entirely then make a big deal about how ORIGINAL and SPECIAL they are is just uncomfortable and annoying.

I wasn’t feeling like myself today, especially when I was called in to cover a morning shift and the cakes I was in charged of, ended up getting banged in the car before they arrived to my job. I get yelled at by my boss, I go home feeling like shit. I wanted to play some games alone but someone invited me to join them instead, I couldn’t say no since i really did want to join him but because I was worried that my bad mood might catch on, I just remained silent. He gets worried, I try passing it off as nothing and find an excuse to leave. Kinda felt bad and told him that I lied and that I just wanted him to enjoy himself without me around. We exchanged messages but they just held the essence of stress in them. My replies ended up being rude and I apologize. I have such a bad habit of apologizing too and I guess I over apologized which got on to his final nerve.
Telling me that it just makes my apologies seem more insincere, i begin to feel even more bad and end up apologizing again until he just flat out says that we shouldn’t talk anymore. I didn’t want to ruin his night anymore and so I said that I agree with him. Deleted our conversation and app
Why do I always ruin good relationships?
I genuinely wish that I wasn’t like this and that I could magically stop saying sorry. I was hoping I wouldn’t fuck this up but lo behold, I did.
No. 250629
>>250621geez anon, I really feel you. The thought of ruining relationships is pretty much 99% of my social life so far, and losing a friend over something stupid and deleting everything feels like Hell.
I wish I could tell you that it's going to be okay and that he'll come back, but that's happened to me before too and they never do. People who hurt you for being sorry or being so unhappy that you want to leave so they'll be happier without you (aka textbook definition of depression) are so vile to be around sometimes. I'm sure they were very important to you, but speaking from experience those people can't even see what you're going through, much less be kind enough to give you space or help you when you need it (which sounds like right now).
What I can say, though, is that just because relationships fall apart, that doesn't mean it's your fault, nor that you should feel bad because of it. You need to take what you got from that relationship, be it a few moments of happiness or some life lessons or social lessons, and be grateful that you had something like that in the first place. I have as close to 0 friends as possible, but I can still look back at the times I had with the people I cared about and say that I have something. And, if you didn't have any of that, getting rid of them was your best option, imo. It's not like you yelled at them or cursed them out; they left you because of something stupid like being sorry. If so, fuck em. They're making you feel like shit over nothing. If not, be happy for what you had and use it later.
Also anon, don't be so hard on yourself. You and only you can be the person who cares about yourself. If you don't put in that effort to be happy, to accept who you are and brush off people being dicks or little mistakes that you make, then you can't expect others to do it for you. It's a hard lesson to learn, and I haven't quite convinced myself, but it's the truth. And it doesn't make you any less of a person just because you feel sorry for yourself, always remember that.

But I really appreciate what you said. I don’t know who you are but you are a very wise and kind hearted person. Thank you and I’ll definitely remember that.
Also please don’t be sorry, in a sense, I did bring this upon myself sadly
But again, thank you

Unrelated vent: I'm sick of this fucking weather in May. It's been downpouring and overcast for the past three days and I'm trying to exercise outside more before work yet I can't. I have a stationary bike but tbh it's really fucking boring even with music or something on tv, and I feel like it's not as efficient. Outside is actually interesting and the scenery changes, not to mention I get some Vit D from the sun. Otherwise I'm cramped in buildings all day and night.
I'm really fucking frustrated with it. I don't know how else to make exercise fun if it's indoors.

>>250430Thanks anon, it seems you're right.
Looks like the cunt has ridiculous high standards or just wants to get rid of me.
We also had two girls working before me. One was an intern, worked for a full year there and after the internship they offered her to stay. She did, but after a month they fired her because she "didn't meet the standards". ??? They didn't have to offer her the job or anything and yet they pulled that shit.
Today she pulled me out of the office today and went with me to another co worker so she could supervise me while working. It felt like I had a pissed off dog that was about to bite me standing next to me.
I only worked with that coworker twice, and only once did we do that transaction because it was the only opportunity to show me, she can't pull the documents out of her ass. Cunt didn't like the way I worked in the transaction, and got irritated that I forgot the name of it (as if I couldn't look it up in the papers if I was seriously working) after the whole thing she said she'll talk to me later with the boss.
And that she did. She told him how "concerned" she is with my progress and I was basically told to pull my shit together next week or I'm fired. Like what the fuck? I'm NOT making mistakes, I'm just a bit slow because it's only been 3 weeks and it's all new to me.
My actual learning/trial period is 6 months, as it is stated in the contract, and they want to kick me out already. I'd understand if I was constantly fucking up the invoices/orders etc, but I'm not and I'm only on day two of actual work. So ????
I don't really care if I get fired, there are other jobs around but it sucks so much because I like working there but this one cunt keeps fucking me over and it hasn't been a full month yet.

>>249869As someone who works in the medical field, the pressure they put on people for certain exams IS a way to make money. You don't need a pap often, especially if you are under 30, and even then it's only really necessary every 4 years or so. If you are on medications then it is important to do check ins and labs, but jfc if I had a nickel for every time I got pressured into doing something that really wasn't medically necessary, I wouldn't have to work. At my check ups, they still to this day pressure me about certain types of BC and when I was ~19 they manipulated me into getting the HPV vaccine when I was not comfortable with it.
Even labs will harass doctors to pester their patients do xyz labs again, when it's up to the doctor's discretion. Be careful with specialists, like GYNs, because they can take advantage of women who don't feel comfortable/are scared and just say yes because they don't know better.
Also, if you are in that much pain, find a new GYN and tell them about your experience. You should not be hurting that much or experiencing those kinds of symptoms after a check up.

I spent the last hour being giddy over what I thought was a good idea, only to realize I had completely misred the scenario.
I looked into one of those betting websites for losing weight.
Initially I thought it was like creating a kickstarter where friends and family donate money to my goal, and I only get the money if I fulfill that goal or lose it all if I don't make it.
Turns out that's not how it works. I could only create host games where other fatties join in the bet and depending who wins, splits that pool of betted money.
I'm really disappointed, I didn't catch that until my second read through because the person's page that I saw the website listed on didn't mention it was a competitive payout against others.
And based on reviews, the profit payout for most games is mediocre at best.
Lol, I thought I was being so clever!
My goal would have been 15% of my weight by fall, which is when I'm going to Japan. I was going to use that money to put into my savings.
I don't know whether to laugh at my naive retardation, or cry…

No. 251101
>>251098I'll keep looking but I'm running into websites with the same pool betting setups.
Personally I've never made a kickstarter before, suppose I could look into their TOS to see if that sort of thing is allowed.
It's just that the weight loss sites add…something like credibility? For instance, the website I was looking into had internal auditing where you submit a picture of yourself and one on your scale of the weigh in/out. Someone from the website reviews the submissions to make sure you're not bullshitting or cheating. Also none of that would be published for everyone to see.
I liked that because my number is pretty high, and I'm embarrassed for people to know it.
One could say I could just show a graph or something without numbers on the kickstarter, but again, I don't think that website would force me to weigh out. People could probably see that as a problem and donate less for the fact. Shit, if I didnt see someone's numbers I'd probably be skeptical too.
I just don't want it to come off as straight begging.
No. 251109
>>251103Family and friends like I said, it wasn't going to be open for strangers because this is personal and I was just gonna share it on my fb. I'm sure strangers don't care about my weight loss, and would begrudge me money towards an international trip as a reward.
I mean I know you weren't trying to be offensive, but you're asking me who do I think I am for asking money for weight loss.
Meanwhile I see youtubers get donations for creating content like unboxing videos, makeup tutorials, cosplay supplies, and pretty much stuff they've been doing on their own dime up until they mustered the gall to
ask for money.
And hell, some people give them money just because they
ask.
Why not me too, you know? Shit, at least it's for betterment. People always threaten fatties about how we'll wind up costing taxpayers one way or the other, seems like I'm thrice a financial burden on society as a whole if I stay this way or worsen. I'm not even asking the public, just people who claim to care about me.

What actual reason is there for anyone to pay you for losing weight? Other than ‘other people get money too’ and ‘it’s only my family and friends’
I’d tell my best friend or my mother to get fucked if they asked for fifty bucks because they lost 20 pounds they needed to lose anyway.

Nobody is going to want to give you their money to not be excessively fat, and it’s honestly bizarre to think that anybody would think it’s a good idea to even ask.
All you’ve done is say you don’t think youtubers should be paid and that you’re not forcing people to give you things. Do you really think that’s a good reason to do something?

I'm watching a documentary series about women killers and it made me want the manhate thread back so bad.
Every last one of them is portrayed in a particularly negative way. The focus is always on the victims and how sad it was that they died, the viewer is encouraged to be outraged by their deaths at all times and nothing else. These women's motives are glossed over or have their importance completely disregarded, they're exposed solely for context. They're never given as a reason for the crime, just as an excuse for a psychopathic woman to kill someone with no remorse. Every single woman is portrayed as a calculating psychopath.
And actually, all of that is absolutely fine. That's absolutely the proper way to go about a crime documentary: making it clear at every turn that these people are in the wrong, that the consequences are devastating, that no amount of subjective suffering justifies murder.
But.
That's never how documentaries about male murderers go. These are women who had regular lives, who were involved with one single instance of murder. Documentaries about male serial killers who did much worse things and openly enjoyed inflicting pain always find a way to make the viewer sympathize with the son of a bitch, or glamorize the whole thing. Or they treat the sob as a complex human being with complex emotions and thoughts, with real motives and desires, with things they believed in that drove them to murder, they're never shown in this pathetic one-dimensional characterization.
This is bullshit. Even murderers get treated as human beings as long as they're male.

They just said over and over that the guy was so nice, such a gentleman, that he loved her so much, he cherished her yadda yadda.

I try to just be thankful and stop doubting myself all the time. I'm sure you're doing great anon, just keep it up and good luck with your internship. You may consider therapy though if your anxiety and self doubt interferes with your daily life.

I am miserable every single day and I wish I had a way out.
I remember the last time I felt happy. I was 15. I remember being happy at home with my mother. I remember going to the shops with her. I remember going on walks. I remember I was doing well in school, I remember I had friends, I remember being okay.
I guess it was when I was 16 when I started falling apart, and never really was able to put myself back together. The subsequent years are filled with so many terrible decisions, which hurt myself and disappointed those around me. And I guess the only reason I can blame for being unhappy is myself.
I think it was three years ago when I made the decision to really be better. I tried to be a better person. I cut out my toxic relationships. I stopped doing cigarettes, weed, even alcohol. I enrolled in college. I got to the root of my problems–from being a star student that never even stayed up late, to a chronic fuck up who could barely wake up in the morning. And I think I realized that I was depressed because I was suppressing the many years of abuse I encountered as a very young child at the hands of the family my dad remarried into. I pushed myself to be better. And I eventually did alright. From an objective standpoint, someone would see a person who is doing well in life.
But every day I feel horribly, terribly alone. I can't connect with anyone. I just feel so apart and so disconnected no matter how hard I try. Life feels like this weird, endless, dark hole; it feels like I'm falling backward into a bottomless pit with no way to stop it.
I realize that happiness is something you have to work at. It's not freely given. And I realize that, by the luck of my own birth, I have resources and opportunities that other people don't. So I exercise. I get enough sunlight. I have hobbies. I eat a plant based diet, I drink lots of water, I have cut out soda and I don't do drugs. I try to stay in contact with people. I push myself to go to school and to volunteer. I keep a diary. I try to fix my negative behavior patterns, I try to recognize when I'm being irrational, I think about how my actions affect others and how my thoughts affect my actions. I ask people for advice. I'm going to see a therapist for the first time in years next week.
But I'm not happy. And it's not even that I'm not happy, it's that I'm profoundly miserable. I hate waking up every single day. I hate that I'm a bad person, I hate how I look, I hate how stupid I am, I hate that I'm a self-centered asshole, I hate I haven't graduated from college yet, I hate that my family sees me as a disappointment, I hate that I can't be a good girlfriend, I hate that I'm a bad friend, and I hate that I constantly do the wrong thing. I hate that every single day I feel hopeless. I have not felt excited about anything in years. I am constantly afraid that the people I love hate me, that they are always talking about me behind my back. I get unreasonably jealous when it comes to my boyfriend and I can often be moody and sullen and emotional. It feels like no one ever does anything unless they can make sure I won't be there. And maybe they're right in doing that–maybe because I'm such an awful, boring, sad person they don't want me to come. But it still makes me feel so much more lonely.
I want to get out of this. I can't keep faking the idea that things are going to get better. I can't keep going when every day I feel worse and worse and I hate the future and I hate the past and I just don't want to go on anymore.
The last time I posted my thoughts about this I was told to sod off and that I was just a whiny, stupid girl. I'm sorry that I'm posting again. I understand that, by and large, there's no reason for me to be sad. I have a family, friends, a boyfriend, a roof over my head, I'm in school, ect. I have everything I need and I try so hard to recognize that and to be grateful for what I've been given. I
try to be happy, to make the right decisions. But I can't be. I think there's something wrong with me. I keep making all these stupid decisions and feeling all these stupid sad things and I can't fix it and I don't want to keep trying anymore. I don't feel like it's ever going to get better.

I hope therapy will help because all my relationships, especially with myself, are in crisis right now and I don't know how to go forward without having a breakdown every day.

>>252111Was only talking to my bf recently and he mentioned hating how many YouTubers/streamers he once liked turned out to be alt-right, woman-hating assholes. I hate to sound like a Tumblrina but they're all straight, white men and I think it's a reaction to the rise of good, successful feminist movements. They look at things like #metoo or women's only events or steps towards equality in the workplace and they think "Weeeh but what about me? Feminism doesn't benefit meeee!"
So instead of looking into these movements and trying to understand them or where women are coming from, they push back. It's actually shocking how common it is to see men in support of banning abortion, pushing women out of the workplace, trying to make contraception less available, demanding boys be mollycoddled in the school system (because god forbid little girls are doing better!), men in support of human trafficking and becoming more religious and extremist in general. There's a huge amount of support for that kind of thing online and I feel like lolcow is the only place I feel comfortable anymore due to it being majority female. Even Facebook disgusts me with the amount of men who would have fit in well during the 1800s posting their shitty, toxic opinions with absolutely no fear of society turning on them (their full names, face, pictures of their kids and workplaces…all public).

>when i see them out having careers, getting degrees, and accomplishing so muchFor most of history this was the life of a man, and now women are acting more like men, which to you is just "being more accomplished" because you have internalised patriarchy. There's a type of feminism that points out that these concepts of career, industry academia etc., were created by men for them to do what men like doing. Women with careers are buying in to the masculine structure. You might not agree but probably men seeing a bunch of women being really good at being men, isn't doing it for them
No. 252143
>>252140What careers are you talking about, anon? You choose your career. If you're in a job that you like, that's hardly "giving in to our patriarchal society". There are more careers out there than working in an office, you know. Anyway, what's the alternative to you? Staying home and popping out kids? Cleaning? Cooking? Just because women got stuck with those careers, doesn't mean they
enjoy them. In fact, I think the fact that we're getting closer to an equal society and I don't know any stay-at-home moms is a good sign that that's
not what women enjoy doing when offered the choice.

>>252151What's a careercel? Why not use normal English words that are in the dictionary like career-oriented instead of using retarded /r9k/ lingo?
Oh wait, you're a brainlet and a robot.
Anyhow, I've personally been in a care giver/nurturer situations and I know that I really don't enjoy them and I also know that I'm not a special snowflake and that there are lots of other women like me that don't like it either.
Besides, all the moms that I know get treated like shit after a short time. It's truly an unthankful job when your husband and kids start taking you for granted and you don't get paid for all the time that you spend nor can you put it on a resume. If you're a stereotypical stay-at-home mom then you entirely depend on your husband and hope that he doesn't ditch you for a younger woman like it usually happens when men get in their mid-life crisis.
No. 252157
>>252150>>252143I agree with you, anon(s).
I love cooking for myself, but most mothers aren't cooking meals they want to eat nor getting appreciation every time they do it. It's just an expectation in most households.
Cleaning? I love me a clean home. But try picking up after a pig husband and a few brats everyday and it gets tiresome as hell. Another unappreciated daily task that gets swept under the rug because people assume since women silently do it, they must like it.
It's overall boring and tedious.
I'm pretty sure the reason why housewives don't share more of their grievances is because they don't want to be judged for sounding lazy or unmotherly. But it's true. Picking up after people and being their maid day in and out is fucking awful.
However let's not even pretend that women are
only expected to be domestic these days. It takes two incomes to keep a household afloat because men no longer bring home a meaningful salary. In addition to being mommies and maids, they now have to work full time or part time too.
There was a study that found women who have a job and then come home to do chores are more likely to be depressed. Because who isn't depressed when they bust their ass at a job only to come home to kids and a messy house? That's UNPAID labor that women are just expected to do to prove how "nurturing" they are.
No. 252163
>>252159Enlighten me then.
What happens when children or the husband or both don't reciprocate mother's affection? All that time, all that labor for nothing.
With work, you get experience that makes you more competitive in the job market. With work you get compensated in money. With housework, you get neither.
But I'm sure in your imaginary world traditional families are perfect and no such thing happens. Husbands are always faithful and children are always grateful and women love scrubbing the house clean day after day but the evil jews made stupid women think otherwise, right?

>>251834Maybe in some places Erasmus students are better, especially in countries that are popular and appealing so more people genuinely interested in an experience of exchange go there. In my dorm everyone hates them because they think they're in some American teenage movie - acting loud and obnoxious, shouting and singing in corridors, knocking on random doors at night, barging into the rooms, intoxicated 24/7. This isn't how real life is. They're here for a little while so they don't care. My uni handles them shittly and they have little to no classes, allowing them to do everything except studying. Dorm security can't speak English, they're useless. The only thing we can do is file a complaint but I'm not sure they even check those. God I hate them. Not like I hate individual humans, but this collective of wild Erasmus students. I was way more tolerant and always defended them until my floor suddenly became Erasmus floor this semester and they put this girl in my room. Now I know.

I studied abroad (not on Erasmus though, out of Europe) and it was super fun because as you say, we had very few classes, and we were in a really nice and safe country so exploring and drinking at night was completely fine, but your situation sounds like a whole other bag of beans.
Maybe try to bring this to the international office at your uni. They should be in contact with the international office from their home uni(s), so if you and other students come forward with complaints about the group, they can relay them to their school which might in turn send them a warning (with possibly the threat of lowering credits or more). If no one ever complains then the next batch of erasmus will be just as bad because they'll have seen the cool party pictures and heard the wacky stories from their seniors and want to do the same, sadly.
No. 252202
>>252111> Getting tired of how popular woman hate is nowExactly, it's everywhere now. I posted ITT a while back how thot and thotting are regularly used and applied to virtually every woman, and it's evidently a symptom of a wider and fiercer misogyny, at least online. Everything is a casus belli for a gender war. If a woman does something, it's clearly a sign that all women are like that. If a woman is a bad driver then all women are unfit to drive. If a woman complains about working, then all women have this suppressed desire to become homemakers. One false rape accusation is enough to discredit every rape accusation.
I never see the same amount of visceral hatred towards men when they do something, and even when someone (usually a woman) points out in an article about a guy that abuses his girlfriend or wife, or murders a woman, how men statistically are much more likely to commit such horrendous crimes, then there are numerous accounts that will defend men, saying how it's nothing like that, and that one man does not represent all men. Fair point, but the same apologetic stance doesn't seem to apply to women.
I don't engage in man hating threads and I've been on internet for a long time so I'm pretty much indifferent to misogyny in regular places which is why I noticed this alarming trend of women being insulted just for existing, calls for violence against women on unrelated videos, youtube channels, social media, news comments etc.
What's even more worrying is that it's seen as normal. We're accustomed to it.
If you as a girl don't laugh at such 'remarks' then you're a stuck up bitch. I've also seen other women both ironically and unironically throw the word thot at other women and men cheering. It's all so disgusting and vile.

>>252188Slightly off-topic but that reminds me of a guy from my university who went to Japan to study for a year and he wouldn't stop posting about him having fun, him eating in restaurants and McDonald all the time, partying and fucking a bunch of random guys on his tumblr. He bragged about Japanese colleges being way too easy for a genius like him before getting his grades, and it turned out that he failed his second semester. Despite the fact that college in Japan IS easier than the ones in our countries according to all the people I know who studied there. He's notoriously bad for showing off all the time and criticizing people who are at least as competent as him so I thought that was pretty funny.
All the Erasmus and foreign students I met during my classes where really serious about studying and had very good grades, but that didn't stop them from partying. But I can totally imagine others I don't know from my classes being there just for fun and thinking they're on holidays all year long.

So the man hating threads usually becomes a discourse between robots and farmers, where robots keep bringing up stale arguments and some farmers even try to rationalize with them and also a lot of repetitive posts in between "omg I can't believe you can be so mean to poor men!!1"

This man needs genuine therapy if he's attempting suicide so often, and it's not on you to keep him from doing so. That's too much stress on anyone. You should definitely be supportive of him, but please don't put your desires aside to keep him 'ok'. You aren't the one to determine if he lives or dies, ultimately it's his decision. He really needs to seek a professional form of help, it's not OK for him to use you as 'life support'. There's a difference between being able to vent, and just using someone to try and 'feel better'.

Not totally related but imo whoever is home the most should take care of the house regardless of gender. Never ever 100% responsibility, I mean the weekly shit like vacuuming and dusting. Anyone who refuses to do much as pick up their dishes is a dick.
I understand that a lot of women are trapped in situations where they’re being taken advantage of. It’s just the false dichotomy of all men and all women. An all or nothing rule doesn’t work when you apply it to people.
I’m not saying aww poor widdle men are

what are we even fighting about now?
some women enjoy and make better housewives, some women enjoy being a career woman and prefer it over being a housewife, why people are so frickin stuck on screeching at women to become submissive, babymaking, housewives and not focus on their career or that makes them lonely bitter "Carrercels" is beyond me
especially with a world as overpopulated as ours, don't these same dipshits argue about how fucked our economy is.. while encouraging even more overpopulation then there already is just for the sake of tradition because for some reason, if women choose to become housewives or not, offends men if they don't
don't even get me started on the obsession with womens reproduction organs and thinking that if a woman doesn't marry and impregnate herself with the first guy she sees her eggs will turn into raisins, if women are happy with their career or housewife, let them be, who the fuck cares about if they wanna shoot out crotchspawns or not, there's 7 billion people in the world, even if half of women chose not to reproduce the human race still won't die out, if that's even what they're worried about but I doubt it, rather they're just arguing about women not all choosing to be submissive housewife fairies

I moved in another country a month ago to work as au pair, officially for a year. My friends and family think I'm living the life, since I post a lot of travel pics on instagram, but the truth is that I'm feeling fucking miserable. The job is stressful, the pay is shitty, especially compared to the high prices of stuff here, the child I'm looking after is Satan's daughter herself and I'm far from the people who love me. I'm already making friends, but it's still that shallow level of friendship that doesn't make you feel actually loved. During the night I often dream of being at home, in my bed, then I open my eyes and see this room. Every day there's at least 5 minutes where I start sobbing like a baby. I scroll through my sister's profile and I start crying. My mom calls me on the phone, I see her name on the screen and start crying. I recall the last day before moving, the coffee with my best friend and the cake that my sister made, and I start crying. During the day I'm often feeling tired, don't talk much, and go to bed at 10 pm hating everything that made me do this choice. I spent a lot of money for this travel and I'm regretting every bit of it. It's been just a month but it seems like an eternity to me.
Now I'm stuck in this situation where if I go back home I won't be this stressed anymore and will have my friends and family back, but my hometown is also Bumfuckville itself, there's no jobs and no future. While if I stay here I might be able to find roommates and another job (since the % of me actually doing the au pair job for the entire year are extremely low) and also my miserableness might just be a phase of adjusting to a new place.
Anyone here has ever been through the same thing? Are my feelings normal and "just a phase" or should I be taking them more seriously?

Let me guess, she still ate the apple pie even though it's not what she wanted eh? Ugh.

>>252445That sucks Anon. I feel you. When moving abroad for a while, I went through the first phase of being super happy, loving the feeling of being a little jetlagged and finding everything fantastic even though it's not that different from home, then starting to be homesick and daydreaming about coming home every day. Then I started hanging out with people my age (and mostly from the same country) and I felt a lot happier and more carefree.
You probably have very little free time but maybe get back into a hobby you usually have at home, to get out of the "I hate this place" rut I'd spend days painting in my room and it helped me remember things can be fun even if I'm in a country I don't like.
Also I think it gets harder right after one month (so right where you are) because the novelty of being abroad has worn off? So maybe it will get a bit easier as time goes on.
Also I get what you mean about friendships being superficial. Like even though I fucking loved going out with my friends abroad, we're hardly in contact anymore. Hell, it was a bit awkward to meet up again with some of them back home lol. But even this shallow, just for fun friendship is better than nothing imo. Also I'd recommend meeting people from your own country if you can, or people in similar situations. There might be facebook communities like "Xians in (country)!", or "Au pairs in (country)". Could be nice to see you're not alone.
Sorry for rambling, not sure if this is even helpful. I wish you a lot of courage and good feelings though, stay strong!

>>252445Went through something similar anon when I did my masters degree. Moved up North but I was the only person on government grants and could only afford the shittiest, most dirty horrible place to live with 30 other people (immigrants mostly who were noisy and aggressive all hours of the day). The room was tiny - just a bed and a chair. The tap water made me sick. It was constantly being broken into. Like being in prison. Had no friends or family nearby and everyone at uni was really snobby.
That was only a year too, but my mental and physical health really suffered that year - I had to go back on medication, my hair fell out in clumps and I got diagnosed with stress-related IBS which I still deal with. It wasn’t worth it for the mediocre degree I got (turns out I struggled to focus in an environment like that). I cried every single day, it was so stressful. Going home at the end knowing I would never have to go back was the most amazing feeling.
So anon, I would stick it out if you truly can cos a year is a short time in the grand scheme of things, but if you’re just doing it for appearance’s sake or because home is boring, then what’s the point? Seriously, it’s not worth your health or happiness, and there’s no reason you can’t do it later on in life if you regret going home. Everyone tells you these things are the time of your life and amazing opportunities, but only because it seems like the right thing to say.
Only you can know for sure whether you can tough it out but remember that life is long and you can always try again when the circumstances are better. Feel better soon anon x

>>248827I'm just about fed up with this fandom server I moderate. One other mod doesn't do shit, and the other is sort of a pushover who doesn't like conflict and gets swayed easy with asspats so is always up to me to deal with the issues that goes on.
Tired of all the shitposting and spam that goes on in the main channels caused by a particular group of spergs. Usually I'm fine with shitposting since I would do it myself every once in a while but no these members are always posting the same overdone jokes/memes/seizure gifs every single day. Giving them warnings doesn't work since the other two useless mods always enable their behavior and spamming.
I feel bad the most for those members who do nothing wrong and just want to have discussions/fangirl over fandom stuff but these fucking spergs always ruin it with their nonsense.
Oh and just want to mention these spergs are in their late 20's . Yet act and write like 12 year olds with the "zomg so randumz XDDD" humor
I feel petty sometimes for getting worked up over it, but this server started as a pretty fun place to share headcanons/fanworks/ideas but is just been going downhill since this group joined that contribute absolutely nothing but nooo I'm the buzzkill I guess for wanting to keep things organized.

I'm so damn angry at myself. I could have a very nice life, but still never feel happy.
My room is super nice, my family is lovely and I'm somewhat smart. As a child I was so happy, had many hobbies, friends, I was athletic and the best in my class.
I don't feel suicidal or even really depressed, but I can't remember the last time I was truly content.
My biggest problem is a kind of mentality that I've had for a few years already: Not now, tomorrow.
Just having to do something little like a phone call is enough to ruin my whole day.
I don't like going to classes, but I would be okay with it as long as I don't have to study for an exam or prepare a presentation, he annxiety because of this is enough to make me feel down for weeks.
Sometimes my dad making a 'mean' joke destroys my mood for the rest of the day.
Whenever I go to Uni I constantly compare myself to all the pretty and happy girls there, it feels as if my looks are the only thing i thought about for the last 10 years. But instead of doing something to improve myself, like going on a diet or even just doing little hygenic things like brushing my teeth I always think 'tomorrow'.
'Tomorrow I'm gonna study'. I wouldn't need to study a lot when I actually start or do something at all, I manage to get it done quite quickly, yet I still dread it so much every single time.
Or when some girls at Uni start talking to me I always think 'Not now, not this week, today I look ugly, I barely slept, I don't feel confident enough to talk more to them, next time I'll try my best.' But of course that never happens.
I'm wasting so much time. No idea what I'm waiting for. That I wake up tomorrow and magically feel all better? No idea…

I don't know what the fuck is going on, but it seems like foundation squeeze tubes are going out of vogue and it's making me so pissed. I hate that pump shit, it's messy, cakes up, gets clogged, and inevitably makes me waste more product than the squeeze tubes.

This is probably not worthy of a vent but I ordered cat food and it all arrived well. The thing is that the delivery guy was really my type. Usually, the delivery guys are older men, balding and fat so I don't care about putting up an appearance, but this time I wasn't expecting a delivery this fast so I looked horrible. And just when I looked my worst, this handsome delivery dude, exactly my type, rings my bell. When I saw him through the door glass, I wanted to vomit.
I had stinky old sweatpants and a sweaty shirt from working out, my hair wasn't combed and I had my old librarian glasses on.
I bet he's laughing with his codelivery dude about a crazy stinky cat lady. Fuck.
But you should have seen him, he was exactly my type, he looked like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo just more handsome.
I started autistically screeching after I shut the door and he probably heard it too.
I don't know whether I should order cat food again and dress myself up for the next delivery hoping for the same delivery guy so I can prove that I'm not a crazy stinky cat lady and maybe ask for his number.

>>252806>>252865Dear skinny anons, I truly believe you (as much as I believe that the opposite exists: women who live very healthily and don't "deserve" being chubby at all, but can't help it).
But being skinny is THE beauty standard in nearly every society on this planet. So having a fast metabolism is something the vast majority (of women) would kill for. You're very, very lucky.
So can you really blame anybody for not being able to sympathize with your vent and not being able to feel sorry for you?
Being told to eat more, etc. is still a billion times better than being fat and all the problems and disadvantages that stem from it.

I'm really jelly of girls with fast metabolism because I know one irl.
However, she desperately wants to put on weight and is taking all sorts of pills. I can't believe the amount of self hate she has for her body. I keep telling her that she is beautiful and that she should be happy that she doesn't need to watch her weight as many women do, but she just keeps saying that she feels unwomanly, unfeminine.
Her body is my goals and she says that for my body. I guess the grass is greener as people say. I hope she stops with the pills though.

>>252880>But being skinny is THE beauty standard in nearly every society on this planet.Isn't it more like being thin/skinny is the beauty standard? Because as a skinny woman I've been told some weird shit about my appearance, like random family friends and relatives thinking I had an eating disorder or telling me to get surgery to get bigger breasts because I'm such a lost cause that I could be reimbursed for it by my health insurance (which is possible actually). People do make the difference between skinny and thin in my experience, kind of how people know there's a difference between being chubby and morbidly obese.
>Being told to eat more, etc. is still a billion times better than being fat and all the problems and disadvantages that stem from it.If the problems that come with being fat is that people tell you to eat less and make other similar remarks and actions against you then it's the same problem in the first place.

>>252887>>252880>But being skinny is THE beauty standard in nearly every society on this planet.>Isn't it more like being thin/skinny is the beauty standard?Uhm yes, that's exactly what I said lol. But no, I get what you're trying to say. Think of it like this: let's say the ideal BMI is 18, that's not stick thin, but still model-tier. So, even if you have a BMI of 16, which is already dangerous, you're a lot less far away from the ideal than a women who has a BMI of 24 - which isn't even overweight.
Of course some peple will tell you that you look gross if you're too skinny. But the majority only voices some fake concerns like "Eat more!", whereas overweight people are much more likely to get bullied as children, have disadvantages while applying for jobs, having problems finding a partner, and so on. You can easily mask if youre a little to bony, but nothing can magic away extra pounds.
And let's be honest, would you rather have people telling you to eat a burger and some petty women being jealous or have people snicker behind you're back and call you a disgusting landwhale, etc. Just look at how it is on this site: even if it's totally unrelated, you're always immediately called a fatty.
I have a friend who also always got the ana comments, but now she loves her weight. She eats everything she wants, can enjoy her life, she fits into everything and many guys simply are really into very thin girls.
Whereas fat girls might fight all their life against their weight, always have to hold back, feel limited in what they can wear blah blah.
At least you can eat to your hearts content, imagine being unhappy with your body AND not being allowed to eat.

So some people will find a woman with a BMI of 16 harder to look at I think, if we're talking about this specific example. But that's just one example.
>And let's be honest, would you rather have people telling you to eat a burger and some petty women being jealous or have people snicker behind you're back and call you a disgusting landwhale, etc. Just look at how it is on this site: even if it's totally unrelated, you're always immediately called a fatty.Both seem equally bad. Even though I'm skinny I don't fit in the standard of beauty at all for a bunch of reasons not related to weight and that I can't even potentially change so I've never had anyone be jealous of me and I used to be bullied as a kid too for these things because children are horrible. I think it'd be more accurate to take other criteria into account when talking about specific people so here I'm talking about myself as I can't speak of others but I really can't relate to anything you say about skinny women even though they do apply to SOME skinny women.
>Whereas fat girls might fight all their life against their weight, always have to hold back, feel limited in what they can wear blah blah. That's just how you feel (general you here). Tell others to fuck off if you can, it's none of their business in the first place. Believe me it will feel good.

wanted to act on these things.
Also, I think a lot of people are bias about the subject. Not every person becomes addicted to drugs, and drugs like weed and psychadelics are fine for some in small doses for recreational use.
The anon venting probably shouldn't do them as their vent implies that they have an addictive personality, but all the people here acting like sharing a joint with a friend once in a blue moon is destructive really sound ignorant and sheltered.
Do I believe mind altering drugs should be taken every day?
No.
Should people prone to depression smoke weed or take drugs?
Probably not.
But to make the assumption that every person who smokes weed or god forbid gets cosmetic fillers is a crazy psycho who is not 'normal' is a generalization and very ignorant.
>we all learned that drugs are bad at school, there's noone here that doesn't know that alreadyYeah, okay, yet there's a whole thread where farmers talk about their drug use and experiences, so maybe you shouldn't try and speak for everyone?

Of course they know and yet they do it, what more is there to say? They might try to tell themselves that it doesn't harm them or that weed isn't really a drug anyways, but initally all of them were warned - if not at school, at least the fact that all of these substances are illegal should be enough to stop them.
Also 'shaming' somebody who does drugs? Unless you grew up in a druggie household and started injecting at 12 I'm not gonna feel sorry for you.
>Sorry if I sound angry, just annoyed that people just type a flat out insult/judgement, without offering any advice or just being kind in general.

The only person I ever knew who smoked weed (no idea where you live that this is seen as something so normal and many do it…) got her whole life ruined because of it. So no matter how many try to tell me that it's harmless, it did enough damage to her.

my mom smoked weed and was a piece of shit throughout my childhood and i had your line of thinking in you know, middle school. but guess what, it's cause she's shit, not the weed.

>>253757I started smoking weed at 21/22. I was abused growing up. I went on antidepressants at 26 and came off them in Feb after a year on them and they fucked with my memory, focus and metabolism. I feel much better off of them.
I study pharmacology and tbh I'd much prefer to treat myself with a plant that we've evolved along side of with a system of receptors designed specifically for cannabis molecules. I was at a very low point in my early 20s and to be perfectly honest if I didn't start smoking weed I'd probably have done what a few in my family have.
I'm pretty sure my family are susceptible to depression and weed keeps me lifted and motivated. I've done shrooms and LSD. The LSD did nothing for me not sure if it was what I took, but I never felt the desire to try again. The shrooms sorted me out, I only do them like a couple of times a year if even and they always give me a clarity and opens me up to be more receptive.
Coke and meth I've tried. I hated both and the coke made me extremely angry, I never did anything on them but I told those I was around it was making me very angry. I just watched TV and smoked weed til it the effects went away. I'm not a big drinker since it usually depresses me.
A number of psychotics are used to treat mental illnesses. The man made drugs are standardised while human biochemistry is not. It's like finding a needle in a haystack at the moment if you want to treat yourself with antidepressants that's why several therapies are used along side. I've had a number of different therapies performed by a therapist, but I can't erase my past and that's what fucks me up. I understand it happened and I can't change it, but I can't change my innate reactions to things now since my abuse happened from ages 7-19. I reckon if i didn't smoke weed at 21/22 I would never have had the motivation to stick at employment and not give up on myself because I nearly have several times

I do take meds when I'm ill and so far nothing happened, so I'll continue to trust my doc, period. By that logic 90% of the the world's whole population would be addicted to meds.
How is me giving an example of my friend's life going to shit because of weed any less "legit" than that guy you know and your brother's getting ruined because of prescription meds?
I learned at school that even taking 'light' drugs like weed can damage your brain longtime - harder drugs are obviously way worse. And therefore I think it's wrong, irresponsible and dangerous to risk that happening just for fun or art.
Sorry, but I trust my former teacher more than girls on an anonymous board telling me that it's fine and harmless.

>miss my boyfriend while hanging with friend(s)
>miss my friend(s) while hanging with boyfriend
I'd start hanging out with them at the same time (they actually get along very well), but one of the friends is pretty flirty with me (he just likes teasing me a lot and calling me cute, it's kinda nice), and I know it wouldn't go down well with my boyfriend if he had to hear it.
Asking the friend to tone it down would be too awkward for my anxiety to allow. I don't know how to maneuver around this.
No. 254626
>>254611Eh…It's a bit of both. He's naturally insecure and admits it, but I wouldn't really blame any guy if he bristled at some of the things the friend says. It basically just toes the line. For a tamer example, I called something cute and neat at one point, and he said something like "You're a cute NEET" (though I'm not even really a NEET). He also talks about my awkwardness being "adorable" a lot, and we sometimes talk about porn/sexual stuff (my bf actually does the last one with one of his female friends, but I'm pretty sure it's the one that'd worry him the most just because it's me).
A double date might be a good idea. I've never actually met his girlfriend, but I'll see if I can make things happen.
>>254601Yeah, I'll try to set things up with him and some other friends instead. Kind of a shame, since my bf liked this guy a lot initially. They'd make a good pair of friends.
No. 254647
>>254626No offence anon, and I'm trying not to judge your friend because I don't know him or the full situation, but your mate sounds a bit creepy. None of my male friends would say things like that, with the exception of one who later told me he used to have a massive crush.
I no longer trust this friend because he comes across as the type that is waiting for me to break up so he can collect the scraps. He seemed like a harmless jokey friend too and I thought i knew him, but he did/said all kinds of things that were red flags.
My other male friends know this kind of behaviour isn't right and would never call me 'cute' or talk about porn because they know I have a bf. Sex talk is fine, but I do think it's a bit inappropriate with someone who calls you cute as a joke or with your male friends.
Ask yourself, would you be cool with your bf hanging with his best friend she's joking that he's cute, and talking about porn together?
If not, then you can see what I mean.
Maybe your friend isn't a creep and I'm seeing things that aren't there, but if he's that important to you, perhaps he's the one you actually have chemistry with and he should be your boyfriend? If not, then you probably should talk to him about not talking that way when the boyfriend is around.
I am not jusging you, I often find it nice when a customer/random flirts with me or calls me cute. I even feel a bit guilty even though I woukd never cheat, sometimes I want to joke/flirt back. I wouldn't feel the same way if it was a friend though, I'd feel as if there is ulterior motives.

Another middle aged woman at the shops did the same thing because I'm pretty sure she thought I was trying to shoplift.

I want to kms so bad.
My best friend of 9 years is so different now thanks to her piece of shit bf. We had a falling out last year and started talking again after about 4 months, and in that time she turned into a completely different person. Her bf lives with her now in a different city and every time I talk to her it feels like she's just turning into a female version of him. It's so shitty and I hate her bf for it. I hate absolutely everything about him and to see her act exactly like him hurts me so bad. She was the only real friend that I had.
Put my two weeks notice in at my new job. The women that I'm working with are so incredibly rude. I'm probably just a pussy, but I've cried after every single shift there so far. I'm debating on if I should actually finish my two weeks or just not show up for the rest. Everyone keeps saying that I should finish and that they'd be "so proud of me." But I'm having trouble even getting out of bed in the mornings to go. I feel pathetic knowing that it's hard for me to do something so simple and go to work like everyone else has to.
My bf's friends have also been driving me nuts lately. I know that they all don't like me very much, and I always feel bad whenever my bf tries to convince me that they do. Especially since it's so obvious that they don't. I feel like they don't just because I'm not into smoking weed (mainly because I can't get over the taste), but that's a pretty dumb reason lmao. There's this new girl in the "group" that has tried to hit on my bf with me present and I guess apparently no one likes her (based on the way they were talking about her) but yet she still gets invited to everything and I don't. I know why, but I'm still super bitter about it. I wish she would just gtfo and I just wish that they would all like me but whatever. There isn't much I can do in this situation.
Also school and student loans but I haven't even been accepted yet so idk yet with that stuff.

This site has intensified my body dysmorphia tenfold. Every time I come on here, I find a new flaw being picked apart on a cow and see the same flaw on myself. Before I started coming here I struggled, but now it’s so much worse.
I don’t even go out anymore and besides my 2 hour ocd morning makeup regimen, I can’t look in a mirror without having a panic attack, or crying. It’s ruining my life. I can’t walk outside my bedroom without a full face of makeup to hide my flaws (nasolabial folds, eye bags, ugly lips, saggy skin, now I’m convinced I’m developing jowls) I’m only 23.
I isolate myself and stopped taking pictures of myself, I don’t let others include my ugly face in pics either. I used to believe I was pretty hot because people always said I was, and I got hit on non-stop whenever I left the house, but people don’t comment on my looks much anymore and I’m hit on a lot less. Can’t figure out if it’s because I’m ugly and old looking now versus how I was at 20/21, or if it’s part of growing up.
Last week I spent 3 days in bed with every light off, every mirror covered, and cried while searching for cosmetic procedures. I now cry as I wake up and start my obsessive skincare and hair/makeup routine that I have no control over anymore and can’t stop myself from doing, even though I know I must look ridiculous being constantly excessively dolled up.
I need help but I’m too embarrassed to seek it.

Sometimes I think about seriously harming myself, like pouring acid on my face or setting myself on fire or just cutting my face apart
No. 255011
>>255004Perspective: Maybe people aren't complimenting your looks as often because the opportunity doesn't arise, per se. I mean if you're isolating yourself and not being in many pictures, nobody can ever really comment. When you were more confident I bet you got out more and interacted with more people because you didn't feel like an ugly sack.
I would know.
For almost two years I shut myself in my apartment except to go to my job, gained 80 pounds, and even now I hate all pictures of myself and dread social gatherings.
A lot of the hate for how I look comes from within me. Other people are used to how I look or don't care, but that's really hard for me to accept because I'm so convinced I'm hopelessly fat and unlikable, and the negativity here is like an echo chamber for it.

>>255021I get hit on when I'm
-Happy, calm
-Not worried about what's going on around me

My natural state now is looking at everyone in the eye, being aware of my surroundings, not enjoying myself and just being serious. I don't get hit on (which is good because I don't want it) but when I forget myself and relax I start to get the creepers again
Being confident and happy is the biggest way to look good. And then being relaxed, friendly and uncritical is the easiest way to get guys to come up to you. you pointed out that your attitude has completely changed - in one year? I promise you that you look the same. The only thing different is the attitude.
Being self conscious is something I used to be too, which my sister mistook for vanity and would get annoyed when I would check my makeup in the mirror. I just wear waterproof/v sturdy makeup these days so I know it isn't budging.
Everyone is just concerned about themselves. Especially now, everyone is ultimate narcissist only interested in looking good. They are so interested in themselves they have no time to judge you. I have never ever looked at a person and thought they were ugly or something. Only bad thing is if someone is rude, like barging past people, talking loudly in your face. How they look is irrelevant

I feel trapped. My home life has been a mess ever since my parent got a divorce. I grew up in a conservative christian household, I am not a christian so it was very difficult in middle and highschool when i had zero freedom.
> My dad is verbally and mentally abusive.
He is a control freak and everything I do has to be his way or it would turn into a fight that would go on for hours, he would scream and tell me how worthless I was and how no one would ever love me and how bratty I was just because of stupid little mistakes any kid would make. sometimes it would be because i was listening to music or playing games he thought were satanic (pokemon, for example.)
my mom would never listen to me For years about wanting to not live with him anymore, I dreaded having to go to his house. I started going to therapy at some point because of all the trauma he had caused me, I was (and still am to an extent) extremely depressed and suicidal. He would ask my therapists about all the things i was telling her and when he found out i was talking to her about my dad he flipped out on me and pushed me into a wall. I called the police but there was no evidence so they did nothing to him. I finally started living with my mom full time but its not much better now. Ill get into that later.
My dad is now getting remaried somehow and i have to pretend like everything he did to me never happened. I think his wife is a very nice lady and i dont hate her or anything, its just irritating that he acts like nothing bad every happened, and i'm pretty sure he doesn't tell her about all the shit he did to me and my family beforehand.
> after living with my mom full time for a few years, I realize she isnt a very good person either.
shes not abusive like my dad was, but she barely acts like my mom. she is uninterested in anything I do, while she babies my brother and gives him anything he wants or needs. ive been having medical issues for years and years and she refuses to let me go to the doctor, she says its too expensive even thought we have insurance. it hinders me from working or doing a lot of activities and its frustrating because I cant afford anything on my own. the only food she buys is fast food for herself and my brother and lunch food for him. I completely feed myself and pay all of my gas and car bills. if i ask for any money for emergency things she screams at me and says how i just use her for money and act like her house is a hotel. I work 40 hours a week and go to school, wtf am I supposed to do?? she also shames me for everything that I do. I'm 20, and if i'm out later then 12 she flips out on me and treats me like scum. recently we got in this huge fight because I was sick one morning and she started screaming at me about being pregnant (which I am not) and she forced me to take a pregnancy test while she waited outside the restroom. she told me how dissapointed she would be if I was pregnant or how she would kick me out if I ever got an abortion. I'm stressed about this whole thing because i know she tells a bunch of my family members about things I do, like I tried ending my life and the next day the entire family was texting me about how ungodly of a thing that was to do.
> my brother is so fucking annoying i cannot handle living with him anymore.
he is babied by both of my parents, he is a total brat. he is loud and inconsiderate. all he does is play xbox, he screams at people playing games and blasts music and screeches along to it, usually starting around 8 am every day. I work a lot so i dont get to sleep in very much, but every day for the past month he has woken me up early with noise. every time I ask him to stop he threatens to hit me and screams at me that no one wants me around and that I should just leave if I want it to be quiet. he steals from me all the time, takes money from me, eats food that i buy with my own money, and no one holds him accountable for his shitty actions. He isn't gonna make it in the real world, hes a horrible person.
I wish I could just move out with my boyfriend but even working full time I cant afford it, and even if I did have the money I would be looked down upon by everyone in my family for doing so. i just want to get away from everyone and be with the one person who loves me, all my friends stopped talking to me or live far away now. I feel alone and worthless.

>>255091>my therapist just canceled today's sessionJust wanted to say I feel for you and completely understand how much this can fuck a person up.
Unrelated but I think therapists should face penalties for this.
Similar to how they bill patients for not canceling their appointments with 24-48hr notice.
Not only do I think that's bullshit, but they're also fucking around with people's mental states so there should be way more liability on their part.
Most of em don't cancel for emergencies anyway.
My "therapist" canceled my appointment via voicemail day of and I didn't catch the notification. I showed up, waited close to 3 hours for her to barge through the door with a giant bag of fast food in hand. I could tell she was embarrassed because she didn't expect me to be there and I knew then what she'd done. She just wanted a longer lunch break.
>missed the rescheduled appointment the next month and the bitch didn't hesitate to bill mePart of the reason why I was seeing her was because I was suicidal from my job, missing a lot of hours, and not making much money as a result. I called to beg them to not charge and they were ruthless.
Apparently they mistreated other patients according to the horrible business reviews, but her office was one of the only ones I could find covered under insurance.

>>255129Therapists and mental health workers can be straight up cruel, when I was a teen going to therapy I would vent about abuse from my parents, not only did she not submit it in but the word got around about it, I tried emailing her and begging her to please not tell them and instead of being understanding and keeping me safe… She forwards the email to my parents, I had to get chased by them until I left the house and was homeless for a few days, went to a mental ward because of a suicide attempt
When I saw her again she complained about me not trusting her and she asked why I wont talk to her and I said because I don't have a safe place to talk anymore and she told that to my parents too as well as accusing me of lying about getting molested as a child and trying to convince me it was a delusion despite never having delusions, I've had trouble ever going to therapy again after that to the point where when I went to other therapists all i can do is sit in the chair and stay silent

When I was in the mental hospital, back in 2009, the guy in charge of my brain told me a story about how he was keeping his wife and daughter on antidepressants because they were traumatized by 9/11. I asked him if they were nearby when the towers fell. He said yes, they lived in Philadelphia at the time.
He was saying that I was schizophrenic, only reason I got out of there was because my health insurance refused to pay for more than 8 days of inpatient treatment.

Work stuff has me really stressing out.
>tl;dr: How do you deal with someone who is constantly harassing you at work but because she's been there for so long (15+ years), it's "her word" vs "yours" as someone who has just passed their 90 days?
An old bitter lady is trying to get me fired from my job that I started which can lead to my future career, and refuses to give me direct feedback other than complain to the big boss behind my back about it. I decided to take action and talk to everyone else to see if I need feedback and they say I'm doing fine and I could just go a little faster (my boss says they can't fire me just because I'm "slow") but this lady is starting to make up shit to get me fired, some things are really ridiculous. I talked to my big boss yesterday and told me that he's only hearing this negative feedback from this lady only and that he'll disregard it if he doesn't hear anything from the others but told me I may want to quit while I still can or possibly transfer and I'm so baffled because I'm always on my feet, asking people if they need help or prepping them for their next activity while this old bitter lady sits behind a computer and disappears from time to time.
Like I understand if I was a shit employee with shit work ethic and always hid in the back on my phone but I'm always so exhausted after work by getting near to the point of overworking myself because she doesn't do her part of the job. No one wants to say anything against her because she's been there for 15 years and is so "sweet and nice" to everyone else. I've never cried at work before but I cried so hard in front of my boss and later in the bathroom, I ended up coming home from work with a huge headache last night and decided at 8 PM to just head to bed even though I just got home.
This isn't really fair. My boss said to hold off on getting human resources involved until he can settle the case but this has been on going for so long. She just does little petty things like constantly moving my belongings somewhere else like for example, I had a desk to put my things in and sit when I have downtime but she ended up moving my desk to the very back. She's telling me I'm inflexible in my job when I've been accepting their request to cover other locations. The list can go on. She's always pretty much set me up for failure since day 1 because she was supposed to be training me and never did. I relied on others who are in the same position to help me guide me through the first few weeks.
I think even if I do get it settled with HR, I may just transfer somewhere but I don't want to leave until it's my time to leave. I have no problem with anyone at work except for this lady and I understand that there are jobs where you don't get along with a person but it's always something new with her everyday. I don't want her to "win" by making her thinking complaining about it is how you solve your problems and by making me leave but I really don't know what to do. Maybe the people really don't like me there and are just being nice to me in my face. I really don't want to think that because I enjoy most of them there but I don't want to be miserable in my job. I finally get a job that isn't fast food, related to my career, and can give me a huge step ahead into graduate school and I already feel so repulsed by my career because of this lady. I know it's just temporary feelings but I'm just venting at this point. Sorry for the long spew.
I honestly just want to fast forward to the part of my life that I'm not working and focusing solely on school or hell, give me the career already so I can really start my life up.

Funny how my experience of therapists is that they are all insecure cunts themselves. My old landlord is trying to be a spiritual healer too.
I can connect them all together and their fields of work, I just don't have the slander in writing.

I miss having friends. I've cut contact with everyone because they all kind of.. suck? Whenever we would have plans, there would be more people than I expected (they would never tell me beforehand, just ask if I wanted to hang out) even though they know I'm anxious in big groups. This happened the last ~5 times I saw them. The people they would hang out with wouldn't know me, but I was never introduced and when I'd try to start a conversation, they wouldn't even bother to try to keep it going. The only thing my friends seem to talk about is people they know (that I don't) and things they've done (that I wasn't there for). I try and switch topics but it just ends up right back where it was. I'd say it was me, and I know it is to some extent, but I have a good relationship with all of my coworkers to the point I've had managers compliment me for being pleasant to work with. I just don't get how I can have better conversations with asshole coworkers than with people who claim to be my friends.

I find it annoying because even though most of the time it's not really a problem and they bring people we all get along with, sometimes we book seats for a small restaurant or for the cinema with our small group and surprise, there's not enough seats for everyone who tagged along later on. It's frustrating too.

As in, they don't want to make any plans because they're afraid they'll miss out on some awesome party or event elsewhere, so they would rather risk end up doing nothing.
Luckily there's two others in my friend group who are annoyed by this as well, so we tend to hang out a lot while the others sit around waiting for something better to do.

I don't even bother with people who pull that stuff.
>>255464I talked about small restaurants because of something that happened a few months ago and while I love my friends, I was so pissed at them and I guess I'm still not over it even though it's so silly in the end. Sorry if it's incoherent.
I asked two or three friends to go to a very small restaurant with me after work (for me since I was the only one working that day) and not only did they asked other friends beforehand before I agreed to it (because it's a VERY small restaurant), but once I booked for 6 people, one of the girls who said she wouldn't come because of some personal drama between her and someone else who wasn't even coming came after all, even though it was my friend who asked her to come and not even me!
It turned out that our reservation had been completely forgotten by the waitress so we didn't even have 6 seats side by side in the first place which wasn't that much of a problem since we went to a convoyer belt sushi restaurant, but we still couldn't stay because of the 7th person. Not only that but even though I told everyone it was a bit expensive beforehand, even the people who came because my friend asked them, they started bitching about the prices once we were in front of the restaurant. We ended up going to a shitty overpriced fast food joint instead, which was right next to my work place.
I told my friend who invites people without telling anyone to stop doing that politely because it ruined many of our outings when we couldn't plan how many we were. I think she understood because she only does that when she's the one who organize something now. You should probably talk about it to your friends next time you guys plan something, just in case they try to invite more people without asking anyone first.

I feel sick to my stomach about ever being able to afford a house in the new area I live in. Two major companies have announced they're moving here, prices have increased %25 in the three years since I've moved here already meaning it will increase more now. No doubt that will be an increase in property tax as well. Most townhomes even have already priced me out. Bf and me already pay a ridiculous rent to be where we are.
I could move back to my hometown, which is a cultural and financial shithole, but the problem with buying a cheaper house there is that the jobs pay less as well IF one can find a job. Hence the low costs.
I feel like I'll be forced to buy outside the limits and have over an hour commute if I do ever get there. But housing prices outside are no longer cheap either because everyone else is trying to do just that now.
Worst of all, my parents are being completely naive about this situation because they're fucking boomers who had great housing markets so they have no idea what I'm up against.
Just to give an idea…
Mom's first house she bought for $21k and sold for $66k. Her second house she bought for $65k and sold for $125k. The latter was actually a very nice cape cod house by a lake in my hometown.
All these houses had multiple bedrooms and a lot of square footage.
Here? A single bed townhouse is running at least $200k for about 1,000sq.
>inb4 major city anons say this is nothing
Oh I know, that's why I tried to stay far the fuck away from the major cities. I knew this area was getting a lot of tech influx but I had no idea things could go this much to shit in a matter of a couple of years.

You could try hanging shiny tinsel near the source because they get freaked out by moving objects.

I truly am happy she found someone she likes who is also equally into her but also i can't help feeling neglected and used although it's probably selfish of me. The fact that i have 3 friends in total (out of which i only regularly see one) doesn't help much.

I wish my bf could trust me to be right about some thing instead of being so insecure about his intelligence. Tbh he believes in some outright stupid things, and when I try to correct him he gets really defensive and doesn't even back down after I verify it on google.
Examples
>thought that feeding cooked rice to birds would make their guts explode and kill them
>cut his finger and complained about the bleeding not stopping, when I told him to run it over cold water he argued with me that it would make the bleeding worse due to "osmosis."
>once when we passed an airport late at night he thought the plane headlights that were lining up to land were the planets Venus and Mars…at 1am and that close to earth
He's 27. Sometimes I give it a pass because his grandmother raised him and she was kind of a delusional conspiracist towards the end of her life. Yet some of this is debunked with a bit of thought and common sense.

I feel like such a fucking fool anons. I just moved out on my own into this small studio apartment; it wasn't my first choice but I only chose it because they allowed pet(s). All my neighbors have dogs (big and small) and one has a few cats, so I thought since I'm pretty lonely I would adopt this senior cat whose been sitting in the local no kill shelter for a few years. I message the property management Monday and they responded earlier today, Friday. They told me that the landlord had actually banned pets earlier this year so I wouldn't be allowed to bring her home. I read back through my lease and it did say the landlord could deny pets but it just seems…unfair that my neighbors can have their dogs, who barking at 4 in the fucking morning, and I can't have a cat that only has maybe 5 more years left? I also feel a bit lied to considering if the landlord made that decision at the beginning of the year, why advertise and show off the place as "pet friendly" 5 months later? The one guy who was there when I was reading and signing everything kept telling me when I'm ready to adopt to just call them and give them the pet deposit? I want to email them back but I don't know what to say? It does say right in my lease that they can do that. idk this just sucks and I wish I would've known beforehand so I could've moved into the nicer apartment by the ocean.
No. 255686
>>255681almost the same thing happened me when I moved into my last apartment. It was pet friendly until I moved in and they changed it last minute because the last renters didn't take care of their dog and it ruined the carpet.
I moved my cat in anyways. He didn't claw the carpet or piss/shit everywhere and they were none the wiser. Unless you have constant inspections, I'd still move the cat in. If they do inspect, you'll get a notice so you can move the cat out or just lie and say you were watching it for the week for a friend.

I'm coming to terms with the situation now. I have one more week before I meet up with my boss to discuss the situation, I'll still report it to HR even if there's an opportunity to transfer out. I want to stay because I have someone who is willing to write on their own accord a recommendation letter for my graduate program. So I'm hoping I can just bear a few more months until I get the letter and just leave.
The whole situation sucks because I asked those around me for feedback to see if they align with what she's saying but they don't because they just said to keep up the good work and be able to handle a bigger workload when we get slammed because we're picking up speed now at work.

I met my now-ex at the beginning of this week for the first time since our very recent breakup, and he said he'll think about giving us another try (not "officially" get back together asap, but see each other regularly/casually date again as a start). For now, we're not talking at all for a few weeks because he wants space, and so far it's only been 4 or 5 days but it's killing me. Talking to or seeing him always made me so happy, it felt like a drug, so it's a struggle. I keep thinking about how much I want to kiss him everywhere and stroke his hair and tell him I love him. Ughhhh.
The breakup was over me being overly clingy/needy last month, and I really realized that I can't do that to a bf even if my past ones were doormats and put up with overt negativity. We had zero issues besides that and it was very sudden, so I do genuinely feel like we have a chance of getting back together and working things out, especially since I'm planning on seeing a psychiatrist again soon and just generally will get busier with positive things. I just feel so guilty for fucking up my first healthy relationship with someone who means so much to me. I've been crying over it daily because even if I'm doing other things, I can't forgive myself or get him off my mind.

>>255831HELLO ACTUAL ME. holy shit. i got three syringes of juvederm in my cheeks (1.5 syringe in each cheek) almost two years ago and they haven't dissolved at all. AT ALL.
i didn't even really like the cat-woman look they gave me when i got them to begin with, but i was into looking like a plastic IG thot at the time so i kept them since they looked better than my flat cheeks in any case. i got lip fillers at the same time, and it was the same case with those - absolutely no natural dissolving happening. i went back every three months for botox re-ups and my NP was super surprised my body wasn't metabolizing the fillers but said it wasn't anything to be concerned about, i was lucky, etc.
i wound up not liking how my lips were looking at roughly the 1-year mark so i got them dissolved. biggest mistake i'd ever made. my lips were all loose and wrinkly and disgusting looking. i had lines around my lips that hadn't been there before i'd gotten the fillers and my lips FLAPPED. my injection lady repeated the usual, "oh don't worry, that's just natural aging that happened while you had the filler" - BULLSHIT, the outside of my mouth legit looked like a cat's asshole. i had to get some filler back just to not look incredibly aged at 21.
i don't want my cheek fillers anymore either, but after the lip incident, i'm incredibly scared to find out what my face would look like without them. i think part of my problem tho was that i just got wayyy too much filler. i could have gotten one syringe in my lips or even half a syringe, but i got 2.5, and i could have gotten 1-2 in my cheeks but i got 3. if you didn't go overboard and you want to get them dissolved someday, don't let my horror stories scare you anon. :')
godspeed my fellow slow metabolizer.

I'm completely in love with a guy at my new job. I haven't had a real crush since high school.
I'm so fucking autistic that I drop spaghetti every time he even makes eye contact with me. He made an innocuous yet somewhat flattering comment to me and I could feel all my blood rush to my face, I was probably visibly blushing and now I'm worried that he knows I like him and might find me creepy.
On the other hand I feel like he's doing extra small things for me that I don't see him doing for anyone else and I don't know if that means he likes me back or if I'm looking too far into it.
I'm not going to bother making a move because I'm terrified of rejection and I don't want to make things any more weird between us. I enjoy his company. Plus I don't know if he has a girlfriend(I'll probably go home and cry if I find out that he does tbh)
Fuck this hurts so fucking much, I want to die. But at the same time I like it, I honestly didn't think I was still capable of feeling attraction.
At least this gives me a reason to get out of bed in the morning.

As a teen my friends liked things with notoriously obsessive fanbases (Dr. Who, 1D, Homestuck, My Little Pony, etc.) and for the most part I could just never get into any of that and I felt left out despite not actually liking the subject of obsession. The bands I liked (classic/alt/stoner/indie rock mostly) tended to have smaller, less rabid fanbases and none of my irl friends ever wanted to talk about them as much as me.
Honestly I don't think you're missing out on much. I'm a fan of something right now with a culty fanbase (and I'm 20, for reference) and yeah it's kind of fun sperging with people online but it gets old fast if you don't have irl friends with the same interest to share the experience with.
From what it sounds like (based on your use of the words bitter, brainwashed, etc.) even if you did genuinely start enjoying something with a big fanbase and made a bunch of friends you'd probably still be uncomfortable/self-conscious about liking it and never be able to enjoy yourself fully.

>ask her who else is in the party
>she mentions a psycho cunt who caused me trouble and is a shit person
>had to decline because I never want to see that crazy bitch again after the last bridal drama she caused in a different friend's wedding I was part of
I asked G why she's having her, and G said it was because she was "good at planning budget weddings."
Um, no. She's actually shit.
I didn't want to disrespect her choice to her face if she really thinks this bitch has a place in her life like that–but deep down–NO.
The bitch is a fucking lolcow in the local community and everyone walks on eggshells around her because the smallest criticism sends her into a narcissistic rage.
The last wedding I was in with her she was completely absentee the entire time. She didn't participate in planning, didn't help brainstorm any ideas, but then the controlling narc wanted to turn around last minute and be slavedriver towards us because she wanted to take all the credit for OUR work.
I planned the bridal shower venue all by myself (because G, the MoH couldn't do it), and that bitch's idea of contribution was bringing dollar store bridal scratchcards. This is after she ignored my repeated attempts to run the venue idea by her, and she had the audacity to criticize the food at it because she didn't like it even though that's what the bride liked.
Anyway, I fell out with her because one day she was giving our group chat hell when we were having fun shooting ideas around for the bachelorette party. She barged in and claimed none of us thought about the bride and our ideas weren't good. The fuck? When I called her out she said she visited the bride the most (because she was getting her hair colored by her for free and because she's unemployed and has the time to go see her). So therefore we were clueless and she just knew best, even though she did fuck all up to that point. She was annoying EVERYONE in the group and they were all PMing me to complain. So I told her to put up or shut up. She sperged at me then left the group and didn't go to the bachelorette party just to spite me. To punish me for having clapped back at her.
Not only that. NOT ONLY THAT–but she talked shit about G the entire time.
"I SHOULD BE THE MAID OF HONOR!" the crazy bitch would say. She thought G was absolutely incapable as a person.
At the time G was breaking up with her now-fiance and she wasn't able to focus on a wedding. She got kicked out of his house and she stayed in my apartment for awhile.
What did crazy bitch do for her? NOTHING!
For that alone, it confuses the fuck out of me as to why she wants her there.
UNLESS–and only unless–G is just using her (even though I don't think she's as good a planner as she claims).
And you know what? If she's willing to be fake just to use someone, that makes me question my friendship with her too.
What am I for, really? Who am I to her after what I did for her in her time of need?
Maybe it's best I'm not in the wedding, more money in my pocket and I don't have to deal with the nonsense.
I told her I'd attend the wedding and would be there for her if she needed help or wanted a second opinion. But I am not dealing with that psycho ever again. Never. I refuse.
I feel such strange emotions right now.
Frustrated because I don't know how she could invite such a shit person to be in one of her most intimate life events.
Relieved because I don't have to be in another damn bridal party.
Angry because I feel like she's a user and that maybe all that I ever was, was a tool to her.
Fuck.

I've been having friend issues for a long time and it's now just dawned on me how fucked my relationship with one of my "best friends" is and I hate it.
My friend, let's call her C, is a very emotionally stunted person with a very straight to the point attitude. But the thing is, every friendship for her has to be worth something monetary to her. If one of her friends falls out of use, she just doesnt talk to them anymore, or barely keeps the relationship. My stupid ass thinks that this could never happen to me, as we had bonded over multiple things and were already pretty stead fast even though we had known each other for only a year or two.
Until I started messing up plans and schedules during the first few months of 2018.
Big note: I am attending university, while she has a part time job. My university was around 2 hours away from where she lived and I had no car to make it there. The distance wasnt anything too bad, so I thought it could work.We both do convention artist alley stuff as a side job and we thought that if we ever started growing our convention business we could help each other and maybe even work together as a company.
Then came finals for me and more classwork and other university shit. I got overworked and stressed and started to forget some details in our convention planning. Stuff like paying her for the hotel fees on time or getting prints ready ahead of schedule. I was tired and not okay with the amount of work I had to finish on both ends. She took this as a sign of me slacking off and being a bitch.
Later on during a con she just stopped talking to me. We had planned our tables close to each other, so I wanted to come check her booth. But she just ignored me or talked to her other friends. I felt uneasy so I dm'd her on my phone. She said she was fed up with me and told me to never talk to her again. I was devastated.
We had done a lot of shit together and I felt like all that was just stuff she put up with to get closer with me. I was just a tool she used to help her get better at conventioning. Once I started staying from her guidelines I was no longer needed.
I hate this feeling I have. It feels like I've been used and thrown out like garbage. And I cried myself to sleep at least a few days after the con because I'm a weak bitch.

I kind of want to just message M once and for all, tell him I know he's openly shitted on me to others, ask him what his issue is with me, and try to hammer things out (assuming it's not what I'm thinking, ie that it was just because I'm a terrible, awful no-good femoid who wouldn't touch him). I don't really like being involved in passive aggressive Mean Girls bullshit, and I'm tired of feeling unwelcome when I just want to chill with friends, but he seems kind of unstable (by his own friend's admission) so I don't want to cause drama.

>>256074I'd first recommend talking to the guy you like outside of the chat. Build more of a friendship with him to start off with.
There's actually a lot of power in confronting someone respectfully. A lot of the time people only gossip because they don't realise the damage it's doing or because they're being allowed to get away with it by the people they're gossiping to. Wait for the right moment and just say something like
>Look, I know you've been talking about me behind my back. If you had a problem, you should have messaged me directly instead of doing that. To be honest, I feel really uncomfortable now. Anyone decent will stand up for you and talk to you outside of the chat. Anyone who doesn't isn't even worth your time anyway. Men are like this, they're bitchy and petulant and it's just something you have to deal with if you befriend them. I can't guarantee this M guy will respond respectfully like a woman would because they're so immature. I can't even guarantee the others will even respond positively because they've been listening to this guy and did nothing about it (typical male behaviour tbh, they'll always put other men first. Always.) But it's worth a try since you've got nothing left to lose anyway.
I've gotten a lot of success from just messaging people and being like "You actually really hurt my feelings there" and I know it sounds really dorky but I think it shocks them because it's not the response they were expecting and a lot of the time they genuinely don't realise they were causing harm. But yeah, these were all emotionally mature women.

It actually truly amazes me how good some men are at hiding major sides of their personality when you first get into a relationship. You could do all the important research beforehand and make positive observations, but still end up with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde upon a minor lapse in judgment. I still think about the last guy I dated sometimes and through hindsight I can pinpoint some moments of foreshadowing, but sometimes it’s hard to tell what was normal banter and what deserved more attention. It’s like this bitch is a method actor and this is a role he’s playing. Some of these dusty ass males deserve a golden globe award for their stunning performances.

Listen, buddy, I wish everyone in power was great too…but they aren't. We have some veneer of a good society to keep things from going completely savage, but far from the majority of people are moral.
>men are policed by other menI've also experienced women having a giggle about women who date "bad boys." I have, myself, laughed at them. And developed women try harder to spot the holes in actual healthy masculinity vs. immoral selfish behaviour (see: the redflags talked about all the time by girls). You'll also have women in every man-hate conversation say "not all men" to keep the hate from getting too vitriolic.
My point still stands that both men and women are susceptible to the charms of attractive people. Generalizing based on bio-essentialism is always stupid anyway and benefits no one.
No. 256157
>>256150The point is that men are policed by society; by laws, the state, by courts - which were created by men. Men are often immoral, everyone recognizes that, which is why we police it. Men commit the crimes, and they're policed. I don't want criminals to be free because we don't want them to get away with being parasites on society, or hurting other people. Likewise, women's sexuality should be policed, becuase it is inherently amoral (note: not immoral, amoral), rewards parasitic behaviour like someone trying to get a criminal out of prison or banding behind a cartel leader. Women love the toxic masculinity and reward it too often (many studies about Machiavellian guys getting the most sex, bullies getting the most sex, etc pp.) so it should be policed. It doesn't mean women should be controlled at all times but parental supervision over which men young women especially date sounds good to me.

And yes, especially young women, since they're the ones who often fall for the Bad Boys meme. Sadly most homes feature one or more abusive parents, which essentially helps train women (and young men) to search for that in relationships. This doesn't even have to be the same sex parent, girls with abusive mothers will also get used to abuse. Or will look to actively hate and use men for their own gain. And for abused young men the same will be true (immoral men and cucks, as you'd say). May be anecdotal, but my mother raised me by having MANY talks with me about avoiding abusive men and guess what? I never fucking fell for the bad boy shit, not even as a teen. Actually been teased for liking shy skinny sweet men kek.
So we agree on a similar policy being implemented, but believe it comes from different sources. I see this mess as a result of child abuse and you of biology.
Also
>still not responding to my comments about male sexuality being equally amoralSome men will fuck a hot chick even if she's done bad shit. She has complete control over having a child and raising it, especially if he pumps and dumps. I see this as equally as bad as women chasing Bad Chads.
>inb4 that's not rewardingBut she's still a shitty person who will do a bad job of raising a child (perhaps abusing it or letting it get molested), thus continuing the cycle of immorality in society.
On a side not, I also wager that most of the women lusting after evil men are either damaged (as those I mentioned earlier) or evil themselves. Not moral women.
So basically what I believe:
Good people, in general, need to stop fucking and procreating with bad people. And we need to raise children to be equally as picky with their partners.

>>256163I can relate, anon. Being pretty normie at this point (going to uni for fucking business soon, working full time currently, not watching anime much anymore, not going to conventions) makes me feel nostalgic for the days of being excited about introducing friends to a new series and taking part in fandom culture (shipping, fanart, fanfics, cosplay, etc.). Especially when I see people older than me even making money off of being in those communities. And yeah, I actually view lolcows (who aren't abusive) as a means of feeling that nostalgia and peeking in to how those communities are doing currently.
But perhaps it's a bit different since I still have weird hobbies like BJDs and drawing cartoons in my off time.
No. 256173
>>256165I definitely have 'weird' hobbies as well, I still like drawing stuff but my favourite style is departed from cartoony/fanart stuff into something more of my own. Also kinda into film cinematography and writing. But these don't define me as a person anymore.
I actually don't find it wrong to be into BJDs or stuff. It's just that I am not overly obsessed, or so hard-on on being 'quirky and different'. There's a difference between just watching a show and waging in the ship wars and writing shitty fics all days.
This is also to do with mindset of people on sites like tumblr towards the world. Especially with gender/sexualities. a lot of times it doesn't sound like something that matters in real life, and people are so damn obsessed with labels.

I fucked up. A few years ago I started talking to a guy online (we live in the same country but in different cities) and I fell for him. However we had never met and he didn't want to come see me and I couldn't go see him. I'd told him how I felt but he apparently didn't believe it (he says now). Anyway, because of this, one of my close friends kept telling me to drop him. I didn't want to drop him entirely because he's a good friend. I did try to get over him and it seems I succeeded. I tried dating another guy but it didn't work out. After that I gave up on men and relationships and I felt okay. I thought it'd be better if I focused on my studies and hobbies more.
At the beginning of this year he told me he was in love with me and my reaction was basically pic related. I spent a few months raging at him and basically rejecting him BUT then for some reason I decided to give this shit a chance and not reject him. We finally met and… I wasn't attracted to him. I'd seen pictures of him before so I knew he wasn't great looking but I thought maybe it would be different in real life. I should probably note that we're still friends and he treats me very well, puts up with my idiotic raging.
I can't get over the lack of attraction. My best friend says it can't be helped if there's no chemistry and I agree with her but at the same time I'm afraid I won't find a guy who puts up with me so much again. I've never had sex and I feel different from everyone I meet. I just want to do it so I wouldn't feel out of place. I could fuck him but the thought revolts me. I want to stop talking to him so I don't have to listen to his affection but I don't want to lose his friendship.
I go back and forth between complete apathy toward him and a sense of guilt which makes me want to give him a chance. Am I what incels cry about? Just dreaming of chad? I feel as if I'm missing something.

If you are able to see past a person's appearance and feel empathetic towards them, then you're not shallow and needn't feel guilty; you still can't force physical attraction where is none.
What WOULD warranty feeling guilty, would be having sex with the guy and leading him into thinking you feel certain way, when you know fill well that you really don't.

So no, on my dating questionnaires I've never thought "Gee, the height of this man correlates to my protection." That's fucking stupid.
I'm 5'3 and my bf is about 5'6. It's fine.

hello me. i'm always told i'm "model pretty" too, and, like you, a lot of my compliments come from women rather than men. i'm not andro personally, but i do have very odd features that look out of place on a caucasian face - extremely large bug eyes, a heavy brow ridge that slopes into a non-existent nose bridge, high and flat cheekbones that exist almost exclusively in people with asian or indigenous blood, a very square german jaw, etc. kids used to tell me i looked like a tarsier. :') i'm an odd mismatch of features that look great individually, but don't blend together in a conventional way, so i totally understand the 'proportionate but weird' feelings. i used to take "model pretty" as a backhanded compliment as well - it actually made me so upset i'd sneak away to restrooms or other secluded places to cry after hearing it pretty much every time.
but now i'm fine with it. i haven't grown into my features or anything, but i've grown to accept my weird face to the point where it honestly makes me happy when people tell me i "look like a model" now, even if i know they're just trying to find a way to say i don't look like them but i'm not quite ugly. i get told i look like cara delevingne - well, normies usually say "that monkey looking girl with the eyebrows" or something similar - pretty much every other day. that made me realize that people like us - you, me, and cara - with our weird faces are actually pretty lucky. it's easy as hell to be born with a conventionally pretty face, it really is. it's easy to wear a bland face that blends into a crowd, but how many people like us exist? not many, or else we wouldn't be considered weird and unconventional by average people. we wouldn't be appreciated the way high fashion appreciates girls with odd faces if odd faces weren't rare commodities in a world that celebrates rare gems. weird is rare, and once you learn to appreciate being rare, life and loving yourself will be a hell of a lot easier.

>>256359Anon as someone who's used benzos and known benzo addicts it does sound like you have significant tolerance.
You can't quit the benzos or z-drugs cold turkey so you need to withdraw slowly (tapering). Whether you want to do the taper guided by your GP (which is safer) or do it yourself is up to you.
I doubt your GP will be comfortable continuing to prescribe you all these drugs or upping the dosages, I don't know wear you live but in the UK benzos/z-drugs/opiates are only meant to be prescribed for short term use (usually 2-6 weeks). But they will help you taper the dose down.
You may be waking up with pain in the morning because as the z-drugs wear off your muscles start cramping as you enter into withdrawal.
Because Prazepam has a long half life it makes it easier to withdraw with, this is a useful benzo withdrawal guide that is very detailed
https://www.benzo.org.uk/manual/index.htm and this is a link to a pdf version of the guide (I find it easier to read)
http://www.btpinfo.org.uk/ws-public/uploads/97_Prof%20Ashton%20Manual.pdf If you want any more info anon I'm happy to provide more resources. But again I want to repeat DO NOT quit cold turkey or taper too fast, my boyfriend tapered too fast years ago and ended up having a tonic-clonic seizure in a meeting in work and had to be taken to hospital to stop him from seizing.

>>256371Do you want to quit anon? If so you will need more support if you have had a long term benzo/z-drug addiction. You will need help from your GP/addictions specialist etc.

You only have 25 days of your internship left, focus on completing that and then once thats out the way you can concentrate your efforts on beating your addiction.

Gonna quit my aupair job in three weeks at max because it's making me fucking miserable. The little girl is a spoiled unlikeable brat and the mom is a paranoid overprotective emotionally unstable woman who basically threatened to kill me because her daughter got a scratch from not listening to me and putting her feet out of the bike like a dumbass. I'm expected to clean the house AND watch out for Satan's spawn at the same time, with the girl trying to kill herself all the time, trying to eat colours when colouring, trying to jump off the window when brushing her teeth, trying to jump off the bridge or running towards the road when walking. Doesn't want to eat, dress up, clean, go to school, come back from school, go to sleep, ever. And if she misbehaves her mom blames me.

Thank you a lot for your opinion/view on this. This topic is really hard to talk about for me and it’s not like there’s lots of other unique looking girls I can relate with. I’ve honestly never thought of it from that perspective and even though it’ll take getting used to Ill try thinking like that too.
vent : I just wish I could blend in more. I’ve started getting paranoid when I go out and it’s effecting my self esteem which is effecting my relationship.

>>256411I can understand, its very stressful starting an internship and yeah your GP was careless prescribing these medications to you for more than a few days.
If you have been taking the Prazepam and zolpidem for a significant amount of time your GP shouldn't cut you off cold turkey though because thats dangerous and if they try to do that please speak up.
Maybe you could speak to an addictions counsellor or something who isn't associated with your GP or get advice from like an addictions charity?
At your next appointment you could ask your GP about medications that would help you with your anxiety/insomnia that are less addictive? It sounds like therapy would be beneficial for you but if you aren't ready to quit some therapists won't accept you, but hopefully an addictions charity or similar would be able to point you in the right direction.
Hopefully once you finish your internship, your stress levels will drop and you will feel more comfortable with quitting.

I'm just so frustrated with my housing situation.
Three years ago my husband and I bought a small comfy home and I loved it so much. I spent a year decorating and organizing and then his parents just swoop in and ask us to house sit for them indefinitely. My husband convinced me, because we could make money renting out our house, but I fucking hate his parents house so goddamn much. It's pretty much been used as the family dumping ground for 30 years and every room is the same: full of outdated, worn out shit that no one's touched in at least 15 years. Two of the bedrooms are full-on inaccessible hoarder rooms. Even in the kitchen, I get two shelves for all of my food and everything else has to go on the counters because all of the other cabinets/pantry are for storage. It's a 10min drive to the closest grocery store, 25min to an actually good grocery store, and none of my friends will visit because I live in buttfuck nowhere.
On top of that, his parents still live here two months out of the year. I love them but they intimidate the shit out of me (also what masochist wants to live with their in-laws for that long?). It's basically just two months of constant panicking and trying to make it look like I'm not a fuck up. They tell me it's my house and I can do what I want but whenever I run things by them they just make me feel like I was wrong to even bring it up. Just last week I asked if my closest childhood friend could couch surf and they reacted like I was inviting a felon into their house. And I get the same shocked overreaction for everything, it makes me feel like just wanting to live normally is a personal offense to them. I wouldn't mind if it was just a few years of inconvenience but his parents don't even know when they'll move back permanently. I could be stuck here til I'm fucking 40 and just thinking about that makes me want to just kill myself already.
I snapped and vented a little to my husband the other day and he got super butthurt. Like, how can you not like living in a five bedroom house? Bitch, we could live at fucking Versailles and it wouldn't matter if I had to act like I didn't live there.

>>256468I haven't had regular, ongoing, nasty experiences with men as you have, luckily never been catcalled in my life. But I've known many shitty men and trusted some who then went on to joke about rape or say child abuse and shit is no big deal. And my own father was a useless criminal who abused my mother and I and preyed on teenage girls.
The thing that makes me pause is that I'm also close with good straight men (my stepfather who can't even bear to look at abuse of women/children in movies, my best friend who has almost too much compassion for me). But they do seem so few and far between that they may as well not exist, and I now feel as if I can't trust those two completely. Even if they would have given up the act if they had one by now.
Perhaps in your shoes I'd have acted on my thoughts by now (drugging+raping+disfiguring a guy), since I'd have no conscience built around men and it would satisfy me sexually as well (since I'm still attracted to men). But knowledge of the innocents walking among them (and the law) keeps me in check.

Hate to say it but it's better to beg forgiveness than ask permission in a case like that. Nothing bad could have possibly happened with your childhood friend visiting anyway. That's something they didn't need to know if it's truly 'your house' too.
I know there doesn't seem to be a solution, but frankly their house isn't your responsibility. Is your name on the deed of the other house, or do you have any say in it?
As soon as you find out when those in-laws are coming back, I'd give your current occupants notice to leave so you can move back in to your own home.
If anything, those hoarders should have to deal with renting out their shitty house if they want someone occupying it. Although they'd never do it.
It's not fair that you can't enjoy your home.

>>256486They have dual citizenship and take care of grandparents overseas, which I understand, but fuck just sell your damn house if you're not gonna use it. And yeah, they're totally against hiring someone. Before we moved in, we'd have to stop by once a week to take care of things.
The other issue is my husband doesn't want to move back into our old house. He wants us to sell it so we can get something better when this housing bubble bursts. It sounds good if it's just a couple years, but that's implying we're in a bubble.

Friend breaks up with bf, bf needs place to stay, friend asks me if her now ex can live with me as I was looking for a roommate anyways, I agree as he and I get along well as a favour to her, friend now doesn't talk to me and has talked behind my back that I "stole" her bf making me out to be some homewrecker despite her ex telling her exactly why he broke up with her and it had nothing to do with me. Yet, according to her stories, I "lured him in with my thin body". No bitch, you were a lazy fuck going nowhere in life, he fell out of love and had no desire to force his way through a life with you. Don't make up shit to make your ex look bad and take all the blame off yourself and put it on a person who had nothing to do with this.
She's a fat ugly cunt and always has been, if he was shallow enough to break up with her to get with someone "thin" or attractive (I don't think I'm that hot but I know I'm better looking than the 200lbs beast she is, also this is according to her) he would never have entered into the relationship to begin with. Also even if I were the hottest person in the world, why waste his time trying to get with A LESBIAN he knows he wouldn't be able to be with when he could have had any other girl and it still would have been an upgrade. Also why would A LESBIAN try to get with your bf? Also fuck this cunt for me having to explain to people that I wasn't lying about being a lesbian, she's just a delusional bitch or a crazy lier.
But, since this is anonymous, I will add this: he confessed he found her body repulsive. Her thighs were practically the size of his torso and you could see her cellulite like craters in her skin. He likes a girl to go on top but she was too fat to, not only too heavy but could support her weight. Her ass that she's so proud of is just wide and flat. She brags that she has a "black girl's ass" but honey, you've got an old lady office worker ass. Even being fat your ass is flatter than a ten year old boy's ass. Yes it's petty as fuck to call her out on her looks but this bitch has apparently been saying how he made a mistake to leave a "real sexy woman" to get with a boring woman who "fits society's ideals". Says the girl who'd be society's standard (minus the ugly face) if she lost about 70 pounds (she's Uber pale with blond hair and blue eyes) vs a freaking brown girl

You know what I think is going on? I think he's low key attracted to you and is probably why your ex friend thinks you've seduced him since I'm sure he's telling her how gross she is compared to you.
Honestly I know you're mad, but it doesn't sound like you had a meaningful friendship with her based on how mean you're being over a guy.

I hate how full of herself my best friend is. She makes a good amount of money (900$ or so per month) but she's living with her parents and she doesn't pay for anything, so her money's only to spend on her, i.e. make up, concerts, going to parties, etc. I see no problem with that, I understand that some people have it better than others, that's just how life goes.
Well, she doesn't see it that way. She's always complaining about how other people spends their money and claiming that she works sooo hard to make her money and pay her bills (nonsense, what bills? As I said, she doesn't contribute with any money in her house, which is a luck nowadays! Nor even gas or light). Also, she's the first one who jokes about doing nothing in her work, even posting it in social media. She's the most avaricious person I've known -she doesn't want to spend more than 7 bucks on a friend's birthday present, making us - the rest of friends- having to spend more, even when, for example, I make not even a third of her income, but she says she can't be selfish at all, that people is always thinking about money and she doesn't care about it that much. Well, because she doesn't actually have to spend it in important things!
It pisses me off because I know in her head she's the shit even when people have called her out because of this, when actually it makes her seem as a jerk and a joke.

>>256543That is extremely disrespectful to you, in my opinion, and I understand your frustration.
His anxiety isn't his fault, but just because he might suffer a lot, it doesn't make your problems any less valid. Even if you're just having a bad day and just want to complain a bit, he should pay equal attention and care to you as you to him.
If he doesn't care about your problems, that's his personality, not his anxiety.

I know it's not his fault to be this anxious but I've been with a boy who reminds me of your boyfriend for more than 5 years and I had to break up with him. I loved him, more than I've loved anyone and I know we could have been so happy and all but it was killing me. I always had to be the one being fine, strong for both of us and that was impossible.
It's not fair that you have to feel so alone being in a relationship with someone who's supossed to be suporting at least.

>>256528I'm not mad over the guy, I'm really mad at what she's doing. Honestly I wouldn't have taken him in if I'd known this would happen though I'm glad I saw her true colours that she'd backstab me and rage against me out of nowhere. Also the guy isn't into me, and I know he didn't tell her that he finds me attractive or anything about her body to her cause he hasn't talked to her since the breakup and in the breakup he didn't mention looks or anything. As for dating her he really liked her personality at the beginning and thought he could look past her looks but then she let herself get lazy in life and work and gave up a promising future so that's why the breakup happened.
And yeah, when I read what I said about her looks it was really harsh and out of line. After her raging against my looks to friends and acting like me being thin means anyone into me is some basic fuck who doesn't actually love me really hurt especially combined with her going on and on about what a goddess she is compared to me or anyone like me. Though what I said shouldn't have been said because girls with bigger bodies or flat assss aren't terrible, she's just the one who's terrible and by insulting her that way I basically insulted anyone else with that so I'm sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings in my rant

Today was supposed to be the first day of my diet and I was doing so well (only 500 calories between breakfast and lunch) all day. The moment I got home I was fucking starving and exhausted from college and I ate yogurt, banana and biscuits with milky tea before dinner. Doesn't sound like much but I know from experience that that's enough to ruin my weight loss.
I'm so angry at myself. Why can't I just survive off of 1k calories a day like it says I'm "supposed" to? Why does my stupid body fall asleep during class and make me crave sugary shit when I'm just trying to cut back a little? When I'm restricting, I feel like I'm going to faint and I become obsessed with getting that one thing I'm craving (even when I try to eat something healthy instead, it tastes bland and doesn't satisfy me) until I finally get it.
I fucking hate my body and I feel like I'm always going to be ugly and overweight. Just kill me.

>>256555Hey! One bad day is not enough to beat yourself up over. It’s one day.
Learn from this. If you can, remove the temptations from your home. Donate them, give them to a friend, throw them out if you have to. Then pack a small, low calorie snack for when you start feeling cravings in school.
Start your calorie restriction small. Consistent, slow weight loss is better than extreme restriction folllowed by binging. Give yourself manageable goals. If 1200 feels too small right now (the recommended minimum) maybe go halfway instead. Allow your body to adjust and wean itself off the sugary crap.
Besides that, are you sure 800 calories a day is healthy for you and your body type? That’s a 1000 calorie deficit daily. Only 500 calories in the morning will of course lead to you feeling deprived by the evening.
There are many many downsides to eating far too few calories
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/calorie-restriction-risks#section4https://www.livestrong.com/article/518807-negative-side-effects-of-eating-less-than-1-200-calories-a-day/You should be eating 1200 a day. That’s still a 600 deficit, so you’ll see results… just slower. Weight loss is not a race, it’s a complete lifestyle change. You want to be healthy for as long as possible, right? You don’t want to binge anymore? You need to overhaul your way of thinking about dieting.
Sappy post incoming: You get one body. That body has to carry you around for your entire life. Your lifespan is dependent on how you treat your body. It is not an accessory, it is not an enemy. It is the one thing in this life which can bring you happiness or end you. Don’t fight it. Love it, be kind to it. Nourish it with the right foods, in the right amounts. Be grateful for your legs which carry you to beautiful places, be grateful for your arms which allow you to hug and be hugged. Be grateful for your stomach which takes what you put in and gives you energy, nourishment, and health. Your body is the most brilliant thing that exists, whether there is extra chub or not enough. Don’t punish your body. Love it. Take care of it. Feed it healthy food, move it so that it’ll stay flexible and strong. Thank your body for taking you to class, thank your body for carrying that brilliant brain all day (heads are pretty heavy, yo). So you indulged a little too much today. It’s one day. And if you treat your body right, there are so many more days to come. The important thing is that you care. You care about your body, you care what you consume. Just make sure that care is productive and healthy, not destructive and obsessive. Your body should be your best friend. Be kind to it. Be kind to yourself.
Good luck, anon. And remember, it’s just one day. Focus on tomorrow, and next month, next year, the next ten years. This is a long journey to health, one that will span your entire life. Embrace it. Give yourself long-term, healthy, and achievable goals.

>>256555Serious question anon: Do you take any vitamins or supplements?
My calorie deficit is about 1.2k like the other anon mentioned, and sometimes I eat even lower than that if I'm not hungry. Before I started taking them I was a hungry obeast fuck like all the time.
It could be your body trying to make up for nutritional deficiencies by telling your brain it's hungry even when you're not.
Personally I skip breakfast (I know it's not feasible for everyone though). If I do have breakfast it's nuts or eggs for energy. I take my vitamins and wash it down with lots of water. I save my calorie budget for dinner and snacks because they fulfill me more. That way I don't feel as deprived in the night. I also make sure to walk minimum 2 miles a day.
So far I've lost about 10 pounds and I'm not struggling to do it everyday. Yeah the weight loss can be slow, but frankly so was my weight gain.
If you're curious about what supplements mine's
>a general multivitamin for women>Vitamin D3 5000mg (I'm deficient from being fat and being inside a lot–but I taper because too much of this vit isn't good either)>CoQ-10 100mg (heart and cardio)>Biotin 5000mg (hair, nails)>Vitamin B-1 100mg (carb metabolism)>Magnesium 250mg (nerve, muscle, cardio)>Vitamin B12 1000mg (energy and metabolism)>Glucosamine Chondroitin 3000mg (lubricates joints so I don't hurt when I exercise)Anyway I know taking vitamins isn't for everyone either but it works really well for me so far. I do feel different compared to just a month ago.

white guys and asian guys who date/fuck/marry black women absolutely repulse me. i don't care about black women dating their fellow blacks or even non-white hispanics or indians (the dot kind) or shit, but i actually feel a little sick whenever i see a white/asian dude wasting his time with a black.
i know i shouldn't even be bothered by it since black women - barring famous ones like beyonce, rhianna, lupita, serena, etc. - are universally considered the most unattractive females of any race and men are least likely to race-mix with them. especially asian men who legit think they're apes and barely date/fuck outside of their race for white girls, let alone niggers.
but even if it's just a white dude who hooks up with a black girl once, i can't help but find him disgusting and ruined. i'm not actually mad about it - i'm grateful he's removed himself from the dating pool and marked himself as an oil-driller so i don't waste my time, but i'm always confused and curious like… why you got a bestiality fetish, my dude? why would you fuck anything that has a 98% chance of having an std from the age 15 and on? and niggers stink, let's be honest. why would you do that to yourself? any self-respecting white woman worth her salt isn't going to be able to look past you going chimp hunting.
i don't know why it makes me so mad since it's not like i've even encountered it irl. none of my black female friends are into non-black men at all and i don't think i've ever seen an xM/BF couple outside of the media. the thought is just so nasty. i'm honestly not jealous, just grossed out.
like when prince harry married markle, i was just baffled. it made more sense when even normies were like, "he's clearly gay and she's his beard - they picked a vaguely black actress since she could play the role and would look good on the royal family's 'i've got a black friend' resume". but i was legit still baffled why anyone in their right mind would choose markle for anything - she's legit a 40 year old, ex-prostitute, divorced, C-list american nigger. she's obsessed with white dudes, so there was a whole string of them (presumably not gay ones) before harry, so it's insane to me that white guys actually enjoy black whores. white men, i don't know if you got the memo, but we left that behind in the plantation days.
i think what it really comes down to is that i'm sick of it being shoved in my face via movies/tv. spiderman? ofc peter parker has a mongrel nigger love interest. scandal? nigger lead with white men fawning over her, one of whom is the fucking president. remember when merlin turned guinevere into a full-on slave nigger and made her queen? lmao. that awful 'everything, everything' movie that bombed because no one relates to a nigger female lead and relatability is the only reason women care about romance movies at all? the black chick in vampire diaries having to kill all her black love interests and go through a string of white dudes. like, this doesn't happen irl… stop shoving it down my damn throat because it's actually causing racist thoughts i'd never had before.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

I have a friend that can literally be with ANY man she wants. Guy she sees, guy that -almost automatically- is after her (without her doing anyting at all, btw). Apparently she has an insane amount of sex appeal or something, I don't know. It's so unbelievable for me; one day she tells me that she sees a good-looking guy in her theatre class, and next time I see her she tells me that the guy confessed to her or something. I'm happy for her of course, but I feel like hearing her stories is starting to slowly kill my confidence (which was already pretty weak to begin with). I don't think there was ever a case of a man rejecting her. She's very happy and cheerful all the time, which I guess helps a lot, but the guys become extremely attracted to her just by looking at her photos. Stupid guys, smart guys, famous guys, even her teachers. It's just… I can't believe that's even real. They risk and leave a lot of stuff behind for her, btw. It's not like they are just attracted in a superficial way; they leave their current partners for her, they travel to the state where she lives just to see her (that's a pretty extreme thing to do where I live, it's not like other countries where you just take a plane and travel like it's just a 15 min bus ride or something), etc etc. Mm, maybe that doesn't sound thaaat impresive, but in my case, I can't even dream of a man doing something like that for me ;_;
She is good at acting. Good at singing. Good body. Can't get fat. Perfect flat stomach even while eating junk food all the time. Perfect health. Perfect face. Perfect eyes, nose, and lips. Perfect skin. Never had acne. A perfect voice with a mixture of sexy/cuteness to it. Perfect grades. Not an airhead. Even with all that, she thinks of herself as ugly (!!!!????) and non-desirable. Very friendly, tons of friends from different countries (makes friends in every place she visits in her trips for vacation).
I'm so extremely thankful that she still talks to me, the epithome of female failure. She's an amazing friend, but… god, I'm so so so jealous of everything about her entire existence ;_; I truly hope she succeds in life, because apparently she's perfection in human form or something.
Oh btw, I only have like, 3 friends and they are all weebs/outcasts/not normalfags. So I know that my friend is not unique or something. But she's definetly the most interesting and succesful person I know.
Sorry if my english is weird/bad, btw.

>naive>socially unaware of other people’s feelings, by continuing to tell you her stories of conquest despite you being insecure>insecure herself, or fishing for compliments through telling you she has self-esteem issues >commitment and loyalty issues, sounds like she is very available to men and hasn’t settled with one despite apparently having options >attracts unstable guys who leave their partners, travel extraordinary distances, fall in love within moments >lives an unhealthy lifestyle, eats junk food all the timeI’m not trying to shit on your friend, she clearly has some great traits. But everything is about perspective. You are idealizing her and holding her up so high, mainly just because she gets male attention and is attractive. That isn’t the be all and end all. Besides, people are friends with people they like. So even if she was the most amazing person to exist, which I doubt because everyone is flawed, she’s choosing YOU to be her friend. That speaks volumes about you, that someone you respect so much also enjoys your company.
Don’t beat yourself up and don’t internalize how you perceive her. You’re not less than her just because men aren’t being stupid for you. You’re not insufficient just because she has a nice body. Instead of writing out all of the qualities you like in her, write out all of the qualities you like in yourself. Focus on you, self-love, and self-improvement. It’s fruitless to compare yourself to someone else. You’ll only ever be you. Work on yourself, work on loving yourself, and work at happiness.

I find it really hard to know how many calories is right since there's a lot of conflicting information out there. I guess eating 1,200, being satisfied and slowly losing weight is better than following what a random calculator says.
I had a much better day today and kept on track. Yesterday was probably just a shock to my system. Between college, being sleep deprived and restricting food, I felt pretty emotional yesterday when I made my post. It seems pretty silly now. Your sappy post is so sweet and inspirational. It's hard to come out of a cycle of self-hatred but I guess I'm on that journey. I know that learning to love yourself and be comfortable is way more important than losing weight because I see so many other women lose weight and they're still not happy. I'm going to try to make being nicer to myself part of the weight loss journey too. Bless you, anon. You're a good person.

>>256748. Omg anon, thank you so much for your words! It actually helped me feel a lot better. Tbh knowing all that stuff about her never made me jealous until lately. I needed some kind words to boost my self-confidence a little, thanks!
In response to the other anons in general, well. There's some ugly stuff I didn't include in my original post. For example, her parents fought A LOT when she was younger. She used to cry and tell me how those fights were ruining her life; when she was like 11 years old she said that she wanted something very bad to happen to her, so her parents would stop fighting and see how much they were damaging her. 11 YEARS OLD. Her current relationship with her dad is kind of shitty, and she never saw her mom again since age 16/17. It's so sad. Tbh it's like she has an amazing life now in exchange for how much she suffered as a child. Oh, forgot to mention she was bullied for some time until she became pretty and popular, smh. And she was almost kidnapped and raped on two different ocasions.
I don't think she's lying about her life. I've known her for many years and I saw multiple times shit like what I've described in my original post happen. I guess she used to be a Stacey-type (not sure if that's the correct expression, tho) in her highschool days. Like, making fun of the shy/weeby people and stuff. (I became friends with her before that, so of course she didn't target me). But now, years later, it's like she kept the base (?) of being a popular girl, but changed her attitude and personality for the better.
I know I described her as some shitty Mary Sue, but I specifically wanted to vent about the 'good' things in her life. I didn't include the bad stuff because that's not something I'm jealous about, haha.

It really sucks, I was very fond of some of these characters. I just don't get why it was necessary to include that at all. I mean, the series notoriously handles dark subjects in a not-so-nuanced way, but this was just trashy hentai doujin level shit. It felt like it was partly played for laughs, too. So, gay pedophilic rape and perpetuating harmful racial stereotypes are points of humor. I know the whole "Uhh it's Japan they're not all sensitive and super PC haha just the culture xDDD" weeb excuse, and I'm the farthest thing from some pearl-clutching SJW, but even I found it off-putting. It's not even like it was subtle or brief, shit went on for pages. If I wanted that, I'd immerse myself heavy in the bowels of Exhentai.

I'm a survivor of sexual assault. I was sexually assaulted in grade 9 by my ex and I became really traumatized due to it. I skipped every class because my ex was in most of them. I always had panic attacks and would just hide in a bathroom stall every class. I was taking therapy at a children's hospital for my anxiety. Another psychiatrist there was trying to get me into my cities rape center to help me get treated.

I used to hang out alot with my boyfriends friends. We were all close and I had so much fun with them. In July, we were at one of thier houses. I went upstairs to use the bathroom. Owner of the house came in, kissed me and groped me. I was frozen and panicked. I remember him talking about how sexy it was that I was "newly legal" and I remember just texting my friend asking her what to do. My bf and I leave and I'm too terrified to tell him cuz
1.Guy said not to tell him
2.terrified ill be blamed
Two days later I find out he told the rest of my friends, says it was me who kissed him first. Both of us were kicked from the group for "cheating". No one asks for my side of the story and I'm blocked on everything. Boyfriend believed me but was still traumatized and angry for not even getting to tell my story
In January I attempted suicide. I was sent to urgent care and I was seeing this lady. Nothing really happened and there was no progress. Shit got worse and I attempted suicide on Valentine's day. Had to stay the night. I was diagnosed with BPD which sucks cuz I cannot stand the whole meme behind it. I start seeing another urgent care clinic. Finally get some progress. She suggested this one place. I go to the one place, sit through orientation, signs forms, was gonna take thier DBT group sessions, told I will be called or emailed within the next week. Never called or emailed so I call back. I call them and they say all programs are full.
My current doctor is trying to find me a psychiatrist and I'm supposed to take DBT at the mental health center I stayed at. But I honestly don't have any hope atm. I have this giant plan to kill myself on my 20th birthday but idk. I'm just hoping I can get help.

Petty vent coming in.
My partner and I have been long time fans of a band that tend to base their music around horror movie and monster-themes. I'm not too interested in them now in my early 20s since their music was more suited for the everyday edgy teenager, but it's a nice nostalgia boost whenever a new album comes around.
My partner and a lot of our friends are still huge fans, and they're now calling me a prude and a "feminazi" (I don't even consider myself a feminist) just because I dared to say I think the new album is in poor taste and that I wasn't too excited about it.
It is purely sex-based with almost every song having some kind of poorly made rape joke in it. The cover is of a possessed girl in a school girl uniform, tied to a chair with her panties down. I enjoy the music, but the lyrics are so trashy and cheap its just annoying rather than entertaining, as they've made way more "shocking" songs in the past that still were decent due to being written in a clever way. Now it's all so direct and in your face I kept rolling my eyes through every song.
It's like the band felt so insecure about having a lot of young fans they panicked and made this album in an attempt to seem grownup, but of course the fans are all "wooo, so edgy, so funny, so groundbreaking!" with a good dash of "I'm a woman and I like the songs, teehee!"
I have nothing against sexual themes and such being used in any sort of media. It's just not what I personally prefer, especially when it has undertones of rape, so I choose to stay away from it.
The fans and the band are all about not taking themselves too seriously, but they sure get serious about people daring to criticize them.

It’s really fucking depressing. I feel awful, but I makes me resent him a little - it puts a lot of strain on our relationship and things that otherwise only be mildly annoying or upsetting give me the shits now.
Sex doesn’t happen all that regularly, but I knew fairly early on that our sex drives don’t match up and could live with it (I want it everyday, and while he says he would like it frequently his body language says otherwise). And when it does happen I’ll regret initiating it because I’ll start to get bored partway through or I just know that it’s going to end quickly with both of us unsatisfied.
I know I should probably leave because there’s a good chance we’ll end up making eachother miserable, but I can’t imagine life without him. He’s my best friend. And we have a kid together, if we broke we’d have to coparent and the thought of not seeing my son everyday brings me to tears..
I love him but I don’t know what to do anymore. With this lack of intimacy I feel like I’m starting to fall out of love and it makes me feel like a deplorable human being

I feel like a borderline NEET. I don’t really feel like I have a purpose in life. I’m in school and fairly close to a degree, I (technically) have a job, I have an idea for what I want to do in life and I’m trying to work on those skills everyday, but in my daily life I just feel tired and lazy all the time. I don’t really want to do anything. I’m on antidepressants so over the past few months I’ve gotten a little bit better about getting up and doing things but I still want to find my place in life and actually do something that’s fulfilling. My job sucks and I absolutely hate it but at least I know I don’t want to keep doing that for the rest of my life. I feel like I don’t get any true satisfaction from how I’m currently living my life.

This isn't a super serious vent, just something annoying. My self-absorbed older sister has recently become SO obsessed with being petite and small. The bragging is very reminiscent of June/shoe0nhead, but my sister is a boring vapid Stacey who doesn't even care about impressing neckbeards and being a loli so I don't know why she's obsessed with being "smol".
First of all, she's 5'3". Five fucking three, an incredibly normal height for women. She's fairly slim, but not excessively so for someone her age. She literally just looks like a normal, average height, fit 20-something.
>"I get mistaken for a teenager all the time, it's soooo annoying"
>literally looks her age
>"it's soooo hard for me to find clothes my size, I'm just that small"
>fits into the average size small/size 2 in most stores
>"My wrists are so small, I probably won't be able to find a watch that fits!"
>tries on a massive men's watch
>"See? My wrists are so tiny!"
I'm younger than her, but I'm taller, and therefore bigger. I'm 5'5" and about 15-20 pounds heavier than her, and obviously I wear bigger clothes than her. She loves comparing herself to me and making fun of me for being "big". She wears a size 6 shoe, I wear a size 8. And of course she loves to make fun of my "huge" elephant/ogre/whatever feet. It's such a stupid insult that I can't even be offended because… what the fuck? Who is so insecure that they have to make fun of me for wearing one of the most common shoe sizes?
She also likes to brag about how small of a baby she was (6 lbs), and how "fat" and "huge" I was (8 lbs). Again, it's not offensive to me, just downright retarded. Who fucking cares about how much you weighed as a newborn??
She's always been obsessed with being petite and tiny, but she's been bringing it up so fucking often lately and it makes me want to smack her into next year. This is honestly one of the tamest things she does, she's such a rotten and narcissistic person and I can't wait until I move out soon. Ugh sorry I ranted way too much.

I get really angry at my bf because he eats my food and has no concept of boundaries. We've been living together for four years and he still does this short of me explicitly putting a warning label on my products. And of course, he doesn't eat food that's old or doesn't interest, only the good and new stuff which infuriates me.
And I didn't give a shit for a long time but I've been dieting lately and he's eating big portions of all my healthy stuff which fucks me up and screws up my portions.
Like he was gone for a few days so I bought a bag of pistachios. Easily 10 servings. When he got back I had at least 2-3 servings left but he ate damn near ate all of it and left me about 8 nuts and said "oh there's a serving left……." Like no fuckface. I told him he might as well eat the remainder because that's not a serving but instead he let the bag alone thinking he washed himself of his guilt by "leaving me some."
I come back today from my workout and look to slice off some lunchmeat before I go into work. HE ATE TWO PORTIONS of it and now I only have one serving left for tomorrow.
Did he eat his gross, old stuffed peppers he made before going on his trip? Nope. He's waiting for that to rot so I'll be forced to throw it out and clean the Tupperware. Meantime, he's helping himself to my shit.
Fuck I'm pissed.

>>257330I understand your frustration but this is a bit petty, anon. He’s not a sibling, he’s your partner. I get he’s being annoying and rude but maybe you gotta learn to share. Text him what he’s eaten and tell him to replace it when he’s shopping, like
>oh and don’t forget my pistachios while you’re out! :) you ate all mine, cheeky! Or something non-hostile. Not everyone has the same boundaries regarding food and id actually find it rude if a partner labeled food as “theirs” even though I respect their buying of specific food. Its just not how it’s done in my family and it’s a bit passive-aggressive and petty and assumes the other person can’t remember what’s theirs. Idk I just find it a bit patronizing and rude. But that’s just me! And that’s just how I was raised. Everyone is different.
Try to cut your partner some slack and realize he’s not trying to upset you or disrespect you. He probably just has very different boundaries. You need to make your boundaries clear and get on his case, or compromise and get double (one for you and one for him), or even just giving up and not dying on this hill.
Again, I get your frustration and it’s annoying when communication breakdowns happen. Just give him the benefit of the doubt and problem solve this. It’s not a fight worth getting worked up over.
>I told him he might as well eat the remainder because that's not a serving but instead he let the bag alone thinking he washed himself of his guilt by "leaving me some." Or maybe he’d just had his fill? Communicate, anon. Don’t presume his thoughts and don’t assume he knows what you’re thinking.

I Told him it was the fact that it was happening all the time and that he would show more respect to his old roomie.

That's disrespectful af and strikes me as something a brother or son would do, expecting the women in the house to cater to him. Stop putting the blame on her when she's doing nothing, he's the one causing this problem.
Anon, I'd sit him down and have a serious talk. Let him know that it's ruining your diet and upsetting you. Also start making him buy his own groceries and maybe he'll see why it's important for someone not to upset your meal plans. You're not his mommy.

They had a boundary (she didn’t mind him eating her food) but that boundary has changed with her diet. Telling him he might as well finish it isn’t telling him she is upset he ate it.
Communication is key. No one is a mind reader. If something upsets you, you have to let them know in a non-hostile, calm way. Or you can just deal with it. But staying quiet, blowing up in the moment, or passive-agressively leaving post it’s isnt going to help. I’m trying to help anon with conflict resolution.

>>257340I agree with this. Just have a calm sit down about it and set the boundaries. If you're buying the food with YOUR MONEY, it shouldn't be an issue. And don't yell at him since it will make him instinctively put a guard up. That's just how people work.

This is partly the reason why I broke up with my last bf. Exact same relationship with food but this, in particular, infuriated me to no ends.
I would come home from work, working longer hours and earning more so I could by organic and healthy food which disappeared in a short amount when he was there.
But then, the sink would be littered with unwashed dishes and the fridge would have some leftover pots of dirty stale food.
I just couldn't anymore. And I didn't talk to him about it because he knew exactly what he was doing, it was very much calculated. If he left dirty dishes and Tupperware to wash when I came tired home, then he obviously didn't love me.
Don't get me started when he would on occasion buy food, he would always complain how expensive it was. Of course, his grocery bag had barely 6 items in it. But when I was buying stuff, he would stuff my grocery cart with lots of shit that I didn't consume at all.
I'm glad that I did because some of my friends have the exact same issue and even after talking with their bfs, they continue doing so. It's only going to get worse.

That's just me. Everyone is raised differently, and that's ok.
You're projecting a lot. Relationships are about compromise and communication. I haven't argued anything about OP doing shit because she's a woman or bf failing because he's a man. I even suggested that she ask him to replace her pistachios when he goes shopping next, as an option. Its a boundary issue, and not a huge deal, and something that's easy to discuss. Idk why you're so pressed about this being a man-baby situation when OP didn't say anything other than he is bad about throwing away food and doesn't have strong food ownership boundaries. If that's a deal breaker for you, I hope you're able to find someone who is flawless.

Everyday after my dad comes back from his job, I can literally listen how he sits in front of the computer and starts picking his nose. Then he just throws the booger with his fingers in a random direction. It's so fucking gross, sometimes I'm not able to be in the same room with him because of this. And don't get me started with his extremely loud chewing sounds. I don't really have the balls to tell him how disgusting that is, since our relationship is almost non-existent. We barely interact or talk to each other, and he would probably get angry or very defensive if I told him, so I guess I'll just endure it until I can move out.
I'm always a little paranoid that one of his boogers lands on me, though. Also our apartment is probably full of his boogers and when my bf comes to visit I'm really scared of him finding them and even worse, thinking it was me.

>Or you are just a man and expect people to do shit for you because you are a huge manchild.yep. The only options are that I’m a spoilt princess or a man. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a man or a terrible person. This isn’t that deep. Why are you so threatened by the idea that a woman doesn’t think of food in the same way as you? In my family, it’s first come, first served. It’s also “no waitressing,” meaning that you make your plate yourself from a buffet style spread. It’s just cultural. Idk why you’re so hostile.

I’m getting really socially unstable, I’ve always had issues with socializing, like any introvert. Ruminating too much over conversations where I said something stupid or came off the wrong way, potentially. But lately it’s gotten to an almost soul-crushing level. I can’t leave the house some days, I miss work because I can’t stop crying, I flake on every single person because the thought of being awkward is overwhelming. One strange interaction can completely send me into doubt and guilt, which just spirals out into sobbing. I feel like throwing up when I think about how other people see me. I want so badly to be liked that it makes me want to curl up and ghost every person that reaches out. I just don’t want to be a burden at this point, there’s too many things wrong with me. Even the idea of finding a therapist would require me trusting someone, anyone. And since trust isn’t something I’m familiar with, I feel like I’m only going to get worse. I can see myself isolating further and further, and honestly, that’s what would make me happy. I’d give anything to be alone, to not be judged or thought of. I know it’s not a reality and I would rather die than to be a burden on society, and as a poor anon, I know I’ll be a wage slave till I hit seniority. So I guess, I’ll be here, praying for a natural death that doesn’t hurt anyone too much, because at least I’d be remembered with rose colored glasses.

dear matt,
i've broken up with a boy you never knew. i'm thinking about you now because i couldn't think about you without missing you, and i couldn't let myself miss you while i was with another man - it wouldn't have been right. i'm thinking about you now and missing you like i'd never stopped.
you were a silly, petulant little manchild sometimes and it drove me nuts, you know that? sometimes you were brilliant and i admired your mind. other times i hated the way you couldn't take responsibility for your faults and thought the world was out to get you in situations where you only had your own ineptitude to blame for your failures. you set your immature goals too high and put far too much stock in hope rather than putting in the work to make your dreams come true. all the while you were a cynic and had no true faith in the world where it didn't concern you. you thought yourself remarkable where you were average and ignored the areas where you were truly special. you never listened to me when i tried to help you recognize your brilliance.
and yet i loved your dumb ass anyway. i think i still love your dumb ass. i loved all the quirky things you did and i loved you too much for your "nerdiness". you set the tone for my 'type' in men for the rest of my life. unless a guy plays starcraft well, cares too much for RPGs, can quote sci-fi and fantasy movie classics line by line (which he'll stay up until 8 AM to watch with me even though he's seen them ten times before), i don't want him. unless he can obliterate everyone at chess and still care enough to spend time fruitlessly teaching me plays, he's never getting anywhere near me. and if he doesn't listen to meme music, he can fuck right off out of here.
it's actually disturbing how much my now-ex was like you. he had his faults, too, but they were, hilariously enough, the extreme opposite of yours. he was realistic to the point of causing me pain, and so confident in his abilities i usually felt like i'd fallen in love with a god or a great ruler who was incapable of failure, since he knew his areas of weakness and his areas of strength and he focused all his efforts on making his strengths even stronger. it was like he was barely human. he was so self-aware and so in tune with what made him brilliant that i felt so unworthy him more often than not. he was just too good. i know i absolutely still love him, and i think i believe he could have been my soul mate in a world where i was a stronger, better person. but if i write any more about him right now, i don't even think all the vodka i've had to drink tonight will be able to keep me subdued and stop me from doing something stupid. it's easier to talk about you since the pain is less fresh and i'm mostly just confused.
i wonder all the time how you're doing. i wonder where we would be right now if i'd told you how i felt. i never did because i wanted you to fight for me. i needed you to make the first move because i always got the feeling i cared more about you than you did me and i needed proof that i was wrong. i tried to make you act by making you jealous. i told you about "another guy" - who was just a gay classmate - and joked with you about finding him cute, trying to get a reaction out of you, and it backfired on me in a way i'd never expected. you brutally cut me out of your life without any reason, any further contact or any explanation at all, and i don't think anything ever hurt me more. i wondered for ages what i did wrong, if it was really so awful of me to talk to you about another guy i wasn't even interested in, if there was more to it. i never even found out because you never talked to me again. imagine having to wonder for the rest of your life what you did wrong? wondering what was so wrong with you that you drove one of the most important people in your life away?
i used to think about you every day and wonder what i'd done until i met him and forced myself to stop out of respect for both you and him. i didn't think of you once while i was with him, and i was sure what i really felt for you was just unrequited puppy love. but then you were the first person i thought of after i broke up with him, and now i'm confused. my mind is a mess, but i can't keep it from focusing on you and i just don't know why. maybe it's because losing both you and my ex taught me the truth about love, and now i've got no hope of ever finding true love, because it's painful unless you can somehow find a way to keep it your entire life. i downplayed to both myself and my ex how much you meant to me. i told him i'd only thought i was in love with you because i was a 16 year old girl who loved love and wanted it for myself so badly i'd have been able to think myself in love with anyone. i wasn't telling a lie when i told him that - i believed it for myself.
i think it was just my coping mechanism for giving my heart to a man (you) i didn't end up being with for the rest of my life. since that's what i thought true love was: finding someone, one person, falling in love with them, and staying true and loyal to them and only them for all of eternity. it was how i convinced myself i was still pure and worthy of being loved again after i lost you someone i never even had. and now i've given my heart to another man and i've let him go, never to get him or my heart back again. i've had to accept that love isn't what i thought it was - love doesn't last, it doesn't endure 99.9% of the time in real life. you were the first person who taught me that horrible truth even if i didn't understand the lesson at the time, so i'm thinking about you now and all the feelings and mistakes i repeated without even realizing it at the time. i miss my fairy-tale mind.
after you broke my heart and disappeared from my life as if you'd never been in it, i hurt and cried every day for three years until i met him. i thought he showed me true love and we were together for two years, hell, i thought we'd be together for two eternities, and i loved him, i really did. i forgot about you then, but now that i'm able to think about it, i can safely say that i felt the same way for him that i felt about you.
i loved you and you never even knew it. i never truly knew it either. i wish i hadn't, because loving you is just further proof to me that the sort of love i used to live for does not exist.
it's time to go back to crying myself to sleep again every night. for you, for him, for false love and dreams that will never come true.
i hope you're well. i wonder if i've ever seen your art and never knew it was yours over the years.

>>257551Wait this guy is still fuckin' alive?
TELL HIM goddamnit
It's the internet, find him on it.
No. 257557
>>257554as far as i know, yes. he blocked me from all his social media after ghosting me back in 2012, but, before i met my now ex-boyfriend, i had accounts i used to use to check up on him. i checked a few weeks ago after my breakup and he was actively posting about a month ago, so yeah, i don't think he's dead.
there are a few problems with telling him though.
1. i've tried so many times before to contact him, the most recent being just a few months before i got with my ex at the end of 2015. he outright ignored me and blocked me on the throwaway account i'd made. it was three years after i'd done whatever i did to
trigger him into hating me, and he still clearly carried his freaking hatred torch for me. i doubt it's been snuffed out since then - he's always been good at holding a grudge, and he seems to especially hate me. i honestly just wish i knew what i did to make him hate me so much. i really don't think it could have all been the 'trying to make him jealous' thing, since it wasn't the first time i'd done that (i was a dumb teenager who wanted his affection) and he seemed disproportionately pissed at me. i still keep in touch with one of our mutual friends (he's basically my guy's best friend tbh) and even he said that my guy still refuses to even speak my name whenever our friend brings up me or tries to ask what happened or even talk about all the time we used to all spend together. he apparently has asked that i'm not brought up in his presence. i really think he genuinely hates me.
2. the timing's not right. it hasn't even been a month since i broke up with my boyfriend, and i'm still in love with him. i do still feel some kind of way about the 'puppy love' guy too, but it's an old love and it would be weird to talk to him right now. i want so badly to clear the air between us, but i'm in a crappy state of mind. i still have his number, and he hasn't changed it, something the mutual friend has confirmed for me (as well as the fact that he's still single lmao), but i don't even know what i'd say. he'd probably hang up on me once he heard my voice tbh. and if by some miracle he didn't, i don't want to see him again and inevitably drudge up those old feelings and turn him into some sort of messed-up rebound when i'd want to be able to give him more. the whole situation's messy. ;_;

>>257456Omfg do we have the same dad? Mine doesn't flick them (vom) but he will touch things like the tv remote or the phone after picking his nose. So every time I use one of these I have to wipe them with an anti-bacterial wipe before using them. Sometimes I'll have someone over and they'll question why I do that. He also makes gross sounds when he eats or drinks tea and I can't stand being in the room.
I've actually spoken to him about it before but he'd basically make it out to seem like it's my problem. I, like you, struggle to have a relationship with my dad. Sometimes, my solution is to sit in the living room and he'll point out things in action films that I really don't care about but I'll pretend I'm interested because otherwise we wouldn't get much interaction. But it's difficult because it basically feels like this video.
It's actually pretty sad now that I think about it.

why wasn't it me. And then learned to deal by telling himself he hated you.
I agree the timing isn't right but you should plan something out. You've got his number (assuming he hasn't blokked you on there) and the mutual friend which are both ins. Seems like a complex situation but I wouldn't give up just yet. Nothing bad has actually happened, it's just unspoken feelings at this point.

No. 257720
I feel cracked. A few months ago something major occurred in my life. It wasn't even a bad thing, arguably it was more "good" than bad. But I developed a full-blown eating disorder. I used to be calmer and I'd always try to do what I thought was the right thing, even if it meant not hitting back or being a bitch. I wouldn't randomly insult people in my head when they'd do something mildly irritating.
But now, I snap at everything. While I used to something have a love-hate kind of feeling towards someone, now it literally feels like I adore them and want nothing but love from them, but then I'll snap and despise them or feel scorned or betrayed by them, and I get upset at them now, whereas when I used to feel that way, before I even got upset over it, I'd remind myself of more plausible reasons why they didn't do x or whatever.
I just feel like I'm so fucked when it comes to regulating my emotions. I also wish things were before the incident because even though I was living a double life, at least I didn't feel like this viscous, spitting monster that storms out on the tiniest little inconvenience or inflates issues and acts like that is reality when I know it's not. I wish I knew what was wrong with me and why I've shifted into this person.

i wish i could be a messy boss bitch like trisha paytas. deadass.
she's got so many issues but she owns them. she's a messy bitch but she owns it. she has an imperfect body and she owns it, she even owns her surgeries and weight gains/losses. she made profit from being a hoe and she owns every bit of it. she turned what most girls give away for free - sex - into a career and she's been honest about every bit of it. she's unapologetically herself in a world where most people in her position put on a basic brand front to get by. her brand is HERSELF. she's more successful/in demand right now than she's ever been and i'm simultaneously jealous and inspired that she got there by being herself. i can't even hate her like i used to or think she's disgusting anymore, because she's built an empire by being 100% her.
i read an article from a business publication talking about the 'quiet genius' of trish today which is what's prompting this rant tbh. i didn't know she has stakes in tesla, amazon, and a bunch of other tech companies. she learned about making investments from her dad, who gave her a "small loan" (kek) when she got started, and those returns are a big portion of her net worth now. homegirl's got some serious stacks. i'd been wondering how she finances her and jason's lifestyle since i know her videos get demonetized these days and she can't be making much from YT, but now it makes sense. she's sitting comfortably on investments and savings to a ridiculous extent. and she still hustles every day - her videos, sponsorships, her patreon, merch sales, poshmark sales - and doesn't let herself fall back on her very safe safety net like she could do. the hustle's admirable af.
i'm not even a stan - i legit hated her like i said until i realized how clever she's been throughout her entire youtube career. she's kind of goals tbh. cheers to all us messy bitches out there.

>>257756haha are you confused? there's nothing honest about Trisha. She consistently lies. She's a mess. Her "hustle" is filming shitty storytimes, selling other people's fanart of her, and making masturbatory terrible quality songs/music videos.
She's pathetic. She makes money off of being a wreck. People love watching her crash. She has no real friends, had a fake (gay) boyfriend, is currently dating an old ugly leach. She has no genuine friends because she's a abusive, an emotional vampire, and toxic as fuck. She's dangerously obese, she's short, her face is fucked from plastic surgery, her tits are scared, her hair is fried. She has no training or education, she has no hobbies other than shopping and herself, she is addicted to attention… and on and on.
She's completely destroyed her name. She's a vapid, unattractive, unintelligent, obese, attention whore who has fucked her body up with food, drugs, and surgery. Her reputation is in the shitter and the only people who look up to her are preteens and some gay men. She spends her money on copious amounts of food and clothing, she is wasteful and gluttonous and materialistic. She has no sense of style or taste. She goes on holiday to exotic locations but just uses it as an opportunity to take photos of herself and brag, not to be inspired or to learn about the world.
Honestly, find a new role model. There are plenty of business women to aspire to or admire. Trisha isn't one of them. You could give me all the money in the world and I wouldn't trade places with her. I'll keep my genuine friends, my looks, my body, my education, my hobbies. Honestly, her life is pathetic. But whoo she made some money? And what do you mean by "owning" it? By her constant breakdowns, look changes, meltdowns, and public spats, facetuning, photoshopping, etc, she doesn't own shit. Shoving your naked, photoshopped body all over the internet is not confidence. Wearing so much hair and makeup in an effort to look like someone else, Pamela Anderson, Maryilyn Monroe, or whoever her latest "style icon" of the year is.
It makes me angry that young girls look up to her as some kind of role model. Like, yeah, kids, you too can be known for sobbing over men, flashing your surgically botched boobs, and releasing painful music. Whoo! Don't forget the STDS, drugs, and mental illnesses. ~inspiring~ Don't worry if your lifestyle leaves you so fat your wrists literally droop, you can just get lipo and boob implants and injections and it'll be fine! Education? Nope, you don't need it. Drop out, make videos on youtube about your sex life while eating copious amounts of food, and you will be living a life that's admirable! Because money! Being a materialistic bitch who has a literal storage unit filled with junk is a good thing!

>>257756I actually agree with you anon. A lot of people laugh when I say she's one of my inspirations lol.
I do think she's a secret genius. I do believe that the ditzy thing is an act and that all of her "Do dogs have brains?" troll videos were just her experimenting with her character. It didn't go down well so she tweaked it a little bit. I think at some point, she realised that she had to create a weird "brand" for herself in order to get acting jobs. She was on AGT, My Strange Addiction and Big Brother with this ditzy character and it worked, she got a lot of attention. She got a large segment on AGT and she was all over the magazines here in the UK while BB was airing. She didn't even have to stay in the competition as long as those washed-up Z list celebrities who were willing to do anything for a bit of fame, they were beneath her. But I do also believe that she's a great business woman. All of the "lies" or traits
>>257784 brought up are exactly what made her money and she knows how to sell it. I see her as being an Elvira-type character (who I adore).
Also, I gained a lot of respect for her when she released a video around the Billie era talking about a "YouTuber" who was obviously Onision. She was really understanding of Billie being under 25 and getting into a relationship she wasn't able for. She mentioned getting involved with dodgy guys when she was under 25 and believing she was "so grown up" at that age but upon reflection as a real adult, she realised that she was really immature.
She knows that being honest and exposing your life is what people love so she makes up a few lies to throw people off a little. There's all this crazy shit like having a vampire in her house and I think it's fucking hilarious. I think she just wants to test what the limits are to what her fans will believe. Maybe it's just because I've had friends like this irl who crack me the fuck up, maybe other people just don't have that humour but I love it. Her songs like "Daddy Issues" and "Jungle Fever" were created with the sole purpose to annoy people lol.
I wish I could be as confident as her. I wish I could come out and say crazy shit and be able to deal with the backlash. I wish I could drive around in a giant pink Jeep and have a rhinestone house and be totally unapologetic about it. Like think about what
>>257784 has said. Why should she be ashamed for all of this? Why are we as women putting her down for living a life she wants to live? She's overweight, has a crazy lifestyle, has the house every 7 year old girl dreams of having, is so proud of her body she hangs photos of herself and gets body mods so she should be ashamed? I don't get it, it's her life.

holy shit im so lonely.
I'm so lucky I have my boyfriend to keep my company but I have zero friends.
I'm approaching my final year of university after a year in industry and i'm begging that they'll be at least 1 girl i can make a bond with. I work in a very male dominated field and while i still value having male friends i can't connect with them as much as other girls.
I feel like i'm missing out on a big part of my life, i mean uni is meant to be all sociable and drinking, making memories and life time friends, along with your education. I've never been out once because I really don't like the idea of going out with 5 guys to a club.
I facebook message people in mutual groups, all attempts have been left on read after a handful of messages. One girl lives in the same building as me and comments on my statuses etc but makes no effort to talk to me back privately. I don't want to be pushy and annoying or even give off creepy vibes, I talk to them about common interests and it goes nowhere.
I'm starting to reach my end point, it's so pathetic that a 21 year old can't make meaningful relationships outside her boyfriend and has nothing to do with her time than to work, study and play video games. I feel so useless a lot of the time.

I usually see this happen wth women however not men, so that’s kind of funny to me. You didn’t miss out on anything, a dude who proclaims he’s so in love so soon is usually a creep lol
Also why are so many anons in the vent thread so bitter lately, so many posts I see turn into fighting

What does any of this have to do with him being “lost/lonely” anon?
You fucked a guy, rejected him, he moved on. Now you’re checking up on him, or at least mentioning him to people who show you his page. You’re analyzing how tall his new gf is?? But you think this is proof that he, and by extension all men, are more lost and lonely?

I’m a 22 year old woman with six years of sexual experience. It is not normal to reject someone and then want to fuck them when they get into a relationship. You don’t need to be a man to know that. It’s not normal to stalk a one night stand’s social media, analyze the height of his gf, and make a connection to how you fucked.

Why does you being on top matter?
Do you want to fuck him or not?

If someones performance in bed is shitty the first time, it's easy to understand maybe they are not always like this. That's why I fucked him again, but it was also fucking horrid. So I didn't give him my number. I don't have anything in common with him. I just found him very attractive.

I can't look back at why a man insisted on having sex a certain way, and try to rationalize his actions? If I do that it makes me obsessed, crazy, and bitter. Alright.
You're implying that you sleep with someone and they are magically erased from your memory. It is something that happened in your life. Anything can happen during the day that can somehow remind you of someone for whatever reason and it is somewhat out of your control. It just happens.

>>256839>>256818Your comment prompted me to read 40 chapters that were released since the last time I read MSS, so thanks.
I agree that the part was really distasteful, though it was not even the first time. The authir has no taste or sensitivity whatsoever and keeps using (threat of) rape as a cheap plot device or way to make the readers see that the antagonists are evil for realsies. The manga is absolute crap (an even edgier madoka rip-off), so I am not surprised it got anime. I enjoy reading it for some reason, but I would not support it. The author does not deserve it. I do not won't more of this crap to come out as anime or manga. I. love edgy, dark takes on genres (which might explain why I stuck with reading this crap from time to time…), but this is a great example of how NOT to do it. I wish the Flowers of Evil guy (Oshimi Shuzu? Too lazy to check) wrote a Magical Girl series, the one manga about vampires (Happines) is pretty great.
If you continuewith MHS, just remember that it was distasteful crap from the start and don't expect it to get better. I would reconsider supporting it.

I don't even see what's really wrong with checking out who he's dating, considering this entire website is based around "stalking" every tweet, status, and picture of various strangers on the internet.

She said herself she likes to reflect on things she goes through or w/e, just because you don’t doenst make her crazy.

I’m going to be accused of being her or a wk, but I’m just so tired with the obvious samefagging trying to paint an innocent anon correctly using the thread like she’s crazy.
My vent is about my roommate. He’s a fat obnoxiously loud fuck who’s turning into a cliche. For the last few months he’s just gotten so ridiculous, doing stuff like using “normie” unironically irl and spouting misogynistic stuff to his friends on voice chat. He also leaves his trash around the house, screams into his video games till 2am, and wipes his boogers on the shower wall. How do you even confront a 24 year old man about his boogers?

even smart person when I come home and see him surrounded by 3 day old McDonald’s boxes talking about his waifu on chat it makes me want to scream. I’m also pretty sure he’s a narc since it’s impossible to talk around him without being “”corrected”” about something.

I… already have issues with thinking no one likes me, so now I'm sitting here crying because I guess they only tolerated me during the two years I was there and didn't really like me all that much.
And that sucks.
Because what if that thought is right? What if they actually didn't like me and are actually glad I'm gone? Like, we couldn't do it any time I was there but suddenly as soon as everyone (minus me) is present you do 2/3 things I suggested doing? You even went somewhere and got salads for lunch (which they would joke about me having for lunch almost every day because salads are good, yo).
God, I sound so fucking pathetic. But it's weirdly coincidental. And it sucks. Because I thought I could consinder them to be friends, but I guess I thought wrong.

>>258585I feel you on this one. I really struggled through college due to my mental health; it nearly killed me but no matter how much I excelled grades-wise it was just "Oh? Ok." Even when I was accepted into the grad school I made a huge deal over applying to for several months, and went to tell them about my acceptance letter, my dad's only response was to mumble "What school was it?" then turn away from me and go to lie down on the couch and watch tv.
Moral of the story is many parents are just incapable of empathy for their kids and it's better to just congratulate yourself on your own achievements. The truth is you still did awesome and overcame your past failures to reach success now and even if they won't acknowledge it, I hope you can feel happy about it.

>>258643I've got the same experiences in my last two years of high school, in the end I left with no friend at all. Although I had a few friends who went to a different places before for years and we kept in touch.
After I left the school. I just tried to make new friends in the uni, and now my social circle is much more expanded than what ever was.
Sometimes it's circumstances, if people made their mind that they don't like you, you're more likely to get stuck with that for a while until you moved out. But it'll get better.
I can't answer about your boyfriend because each situations are different, it's sure lonely if he actually left and I feel for you… Maybe trying to ask yourself a 'hard question'. would you consider him a dependable partner if he happened to leave you for said reason.
I can see that it's tough, but there are too many times that much couldn't be done to change the situation.
Can you try to make friends outside school?

I feel terribly heartbroken about Chester Bennington’s suicide, even more so than the world found out about his suicide. I’ve been so numb all this time. I could not cry or express my pain in any way. I want to puke when I think that soon there will be the first anniversary of his death.
Or when I realize that on the 15th of June I’ve seen him on a gig and now on the exact same day his best friend is releasing his solo album about coming to terms with Chester’s death.
Just a year ago he seemed so fine, so full of life and joy. The concert was one of the most wonderful ones I’ve ever been to, if not the greatest. It was extremely cathartic and joyful.
I don’t want to get into unnecessary details and make this too long but Chester meant so much to me ever since I discovered his band as an 12 y/o thanks to the Breaking the Habit music video. His music and person helped me deal with depression, bullying and (limited as it was) my experience with sexual abuse. To see a guy go through so much horrible shit and yet stay a compassionate, cheerful person who keep doing his best no matter what meant the world to me. Before I met my boyfriend, knowing that someone like Chester exists gave me hope that there are wonderful men too. I felt so happy reading his interviews or seeing his interactions with Talinda or Mike. I loved that he was not ashamed of his feelings, of hugging his best friend. He was the opposite of the stereotype of wannabe macho douchebag nu-metal singer (of course Linkin Park were no longer nu-metal after first two records, but that’s how they’ve started).
I feel so stupid. Like I should not be ‘grieving’ because I did not know him. His family and friends feel the real pain. I feel like I’m faking my feelings. It hurts so bad though.
It does not help that so many people feel that mourning celebrities is cringe.

I'm seriously fed up with my older brother. He is constantly making noise. All the time.
It's driving me fucking crazy. He is constantly playing music or video games. Which would be okay…but he has these awful speakers that absolutely shake the walls, even at a quiet volume. It's impossible to sleep or even hear yourself think while he's doing this. He refuses to use headphones, and if you complain to him that he's bothering you, you're lucky if he even bothers to respond at all. Most of the time he just prefers to ignore you until you get fed up and walk away. If he does decide to respond though, he only ever says that it's already quiet enough and that you're lying about being able to hear it. And yes, he still says this to me after having woken me up an uncountable number of times, and me asking him to turn it down every time. Our mom, who works a night shift, also has problems with him constantly waking her during the day, when she's sleeping, because he feels like he can play it even louder than at night. Last semester, he woke me and kept me up one of the nights before I had finals.
He seriously won't listen to anyone telling him to stop, and he thinks all of the people that he's bothering are lying. There has been absolutely nothing that has gotten him to stop. He sometimes will turn it down when my mom asks, but never off. I'm trying to get used to sleeping with my headphones blasting in my ears to shut out the noise of my walls vibrating, but it still shakes my body, which feels awful. I like sleeping in complete silence too, so any noise is bothersome, but some neutral music is better than the irregular, pounding sound of the walls shaking. At this point, my nightly routine on his days off consists of going to bed, getting woken up by him, asking him to be quiet, getting ignored, waiting for him to go to bed and then going back to sleep
Last night, I wake up to that sound again at 3 am. He wasn't home when I fell asleep, so he must have come home in the middle of the night again. I walk over to his room to ask him to stop like every other night. I ask him to stop in a pleasant voice, loud enough for him to hear over the music, but not a yell. He doesn't respond. I try to call out to him several more times and he ignores me every time. Then I hear my sister waking up. She's a high schooler and has to wake up at 6am, so I feel really bad that her sleep got interrupted. She skips the polite approach and goes straight for slamming on his door and yelling. I'll admit that this is more effective than what I went for, because he at least responds. I don't really remember what he said, but he probably said no because he didn't turn it down. My dad eventually just shuts off the power to his room. My dad usually doesn't do anything about my brother besides complaining, so I'm grateful that he took some action today
This morning he was up doing it again, waking me up with that awful vibrating sound a few hours before my alarm. I don't care that much about getting woken up in the morning, but it's pretty annoying when I already lost sleep because of him a few hours before. When he eventually came downstairs for the morning, he first told a really fake story about getting a ticket at 2:30am last night (The speeding ticket part was true, the part where the cop called him super smart and a great kid wasn't), and then when my dad suggested that he start paying for his own car insurance because of that, he started ranting about how he was going to move out anyway. Some direct quotes:
>"I'm about to move out because I can't live here anymore"
>"I'm consulting with the people today because I can't even listen to a song super quiet without everyone freaking out"
>"I DIDN'T WAKE ANYONE UP THEY WERE ALL ALREADY AWAKE I SAW THE LIGHTS UNDER THEIR DOORS!!!!!!!"
I mean…I sleep with a super dim lamp on, but I seriously doubt he managed to see that under my door. My sister's room was completely dark too. Probably just a lie.
After that, I tried to explain to him that he did, in fact, wake up me up, but he stormed out of the house while I was mid-sentence. I seriously hope that he'll move out and I can go back to only needing to see him when he wants free food or to do his laundry for free…but he probably won't. I'm pretty sure he was just trying to guilt trip me with that comment, which is pretty crazy but totally his style. In his mind there's only him.

>>258716Hey Anon, I feel the same way.
I still haven't processed it, and I too feel like I'm not allowed to grieve for a person I never knew personally. I break out in tears every time I listen to his songs, and I am grateful I could see Linkin Park live in concert a month before Chester's death.
I listened to their songs when I felt the lowest, and after the suicide their music got even more personal to me.
I know I can't offer you any comfort but I hope it makes you feel a little better that you're not the only one.

>>258735Lol, the way your parents handle your brother is a joke.
Is there seriously no consequence for anything bad he does?
How about your parents taking away his sound systems while he's gone for starters? Taking away the keys to his car if he won't pay for his own insurance spikes that he caused?
Shit, even if I were you the next time he gets that loud late at night I'd barge right into his room and start unplugging everything.
He's a little diva and treats everyone like shit because he knows he gets away with it every time. What a spoiled bastard.

I want my bf to wake up and leave for work already so I can order takeout sushi and eat in peace. It's 1pm and he's still asleep in bed.
Haven't eaten yet because anything I prepare he'll try to weasel in on it even if I make only enough for me.
If I order it now and go to get it he'll wake up, right on time for the feedbag which pisses me off. For the record–no–he never buys anything to bring it home and share with me. He works at restaurants so everyday is an eat-out day for him. Meanwhile, I usually have to rustle something up at home for myself after I get home from work, which he'll also partake in because I make nice meals. But oh man I can't ask him to help prepare meals, he doesn't have the patience and will half-ass. Also he never cooks unless I complain and again that'll be a half-ass rush job too. I'm lucky to get hamburger helper out of him thrice a year.
Kinda like
>>257330 he's always in my food like a scavenger. That's why I want this sushi to eat alone.
If I dared bring that home he'd look at me like a fucking dog the entire time and beg me until I give him some.
I grew up middle class and we always had money to buy our own meals. There was no such thing as """sharing""" aka copping meals off folks because there was always enough to go around.
There was mom's chocolates. My snacks. Dad's cereal.
Dinnertime? It was considered rude to ask for food off other peoples' plates because there wasn't a damn reason why there wasn't enough food or why I couldn't have asked for my own.
Sorry but it's pest behavior and it bothers me. I've said how I don't like this before but he just can't restrain himself.

>>258711Hey thanks for responding kind anon
Talked with bf a few hours ago, turns out he was worried for me and felt bad when he had friends to hang with and when i didn't
I'm still figuring out if hes a dependable partner lol probably not but i feel like shit if i leave him now considering all the money and effort i put into this relationship but we are doing ok and i hope things get better.
He is kinda cold and he has depression, i feel awful about losing my flower to him but this is my first genuine relationship and i'm scared.. scared that he will leave me for some other chick who is better than me in all aspects im just stupid rn but thats kinda how i feel sometimes (been struggling with my sexuality and i'm not very interested in sex i just feel so weird)
to sum it up i want a serious relationship with a very dedicated commitment but he wants to young and be free together with me (its really cute but also worrying me)
Unrelated but idk i feel like ill be dating girls from now on they are so much more understanding at least from the ones i dated in the past
Also for your last advice i did it right after i saw it. Just checked up some old friends from some time ago most are going to study in america but one guy wants to take a walk or just hang around town with me one day so that's nice.
Still shaky about school and my classmates whispering and ignoring me but im changing uni next year so after these exams and summer break i'm gone and hopefully somewhere better in my life.
I'm scared everything will go to shit but i'll try my best getting friends and sorting it out with my bf im glad it worked out for you so lets hope it does for me as well!
again sorry for any mistakes

I have a crush on this guy I'm friends with, but I have a boyfriend. We haven't done anything, but we're very drawn to each other. It was irresponsible to let things get to this point. Fuck. I don't understand myself. I love my boyfriend, and yet I'm basically betraying him.
I used a pet name I only ever use with my bf with this guy a couple of days ago. It just fucking slipped out, and it all felt so natural and right.
I used to hate cheaters because I thought they were all soulless, manipulative freaks who didn't care for their partners and wasted their time, but if this is how they all feel…I don't know. I wish it were the case that I didn't care, because then I'd just be able to break things off with one or the other, or play them both, no fucks given. Instead, somehow, I just have feelings for them both. I love my boyfriend, but the feelings I'm getting for this guy are very much there too. I can't deny it, and it scares me. Shouldn't one diminish the other? Has anyone else been through this? Am I poly or something?

Tomorrow I have a test that left me super anxious for ages. It's one of the main reasons why I haven't had a single night of even close to 8 hours sleep for 2 months now.
Despite it being super hot I woke up with a sore throat this morning. Just now I tried showering but the showerhead keeps coming off all the time. After I finished showering I wanted to redress, then I notice: I don't have any fresh panties left. Now I'm wearing some super old ones, 3 sizes too small, that have been laying unwashed in my closet for years.
I know that these are all just minor things but I'm already so frustrated and irritated and now this…
To top it all of, I already know that the prof who's testing me and another dude tomorrow is super biased towards him, even though I prepared a lot more. It feels as if the universe is against me, everything is shit

>>258750ugh, I know that feeling, anon. My soon to be step brother is the same way, if not worse. He's almost 26 and so far he's quit art college that his mom fully paid for including rent (which he quit because he didn't like that 'they were telling him how to draw', which is a pathetic excuse for losing out on 9K a semester), he got a job but then quit working after getting enough rent money to pay our parents to let him stay, and then 6 months later he finally has a job but it's a dead end one doing manual labor. My parents had to threaten to kick him out before he actually got it, and before that he lied about getting job applications so they would stop asking.
Ever since I moved in with them when our families moved into the same house, all he does is sit in his room and play online video games. His mom tells me that he supposedly does art but I haven't seen 1 thing of his, let alone a doodle, so I'm skeptical he even does
anything productive beyond his day job.
On top of that, he keeps eating all the food around the house regardless of whether or not he bought it. He's one of those 'super skinny but will chug down an entire carton of ice cream in one sitting' type guys, and he literally eats an entire box of cereal with the milk jug by his side just so he doesn't have to get up to get seconds. He rarely if ever replaces what he ate nor tell anyone that he ate it, so we're all left yelling at each other over eating each others' food even tho we all know it was him. He even asks for things of mine to borrow like controller chargers or game discs and hasn't given either of them back to me in 9 months. I shouldn't have to ask for my own shit back, but here we are.
Then, he expects everyone else to do the work first and then do anything that's left, like just showing up after everyone is done filling in the garden or digging a hole for a tree and then asking if we need help, which we obviously don't 9 times out of 10. The only things he consistently does is vacuum and take out the trash, which is shocking to me since I'm always asking if people need help since I'm home alone and want to be grateful for having a nice place to live while I go to uni.
It's frankly pathetic that he's a grown man and still acts like a child without any sense of respect. My dad really can't stand him and wants him gone but can't piss off his future wife, despite the fact that she doesn't like what he's doing either, but won't put her foot down.

>>258745>Is there seriously no consequence for anything bad he does?No. Being loud isn't even the tip of the iceberg for him, he does plenty of worse things. He has stolen from our parents, done illegal things in their house, even gotten arrested. They know about all of it, and they still not only let him live with us but don't even try to discipline him or make rules. It's their opinion that he'd screw himself up even more if he was living on his own. They're doing anything to stop him from screwing himself up while he's living here though, so what's the point?
He also gets away with being really disgusting and messy, to the point of having old, rotting food in his room.
He has also come home drunk and vomited all over (it was everywhere) our shared bathroom without cleaning it for me to find in the morning…twice in the last month. He doesn't help out with any chores despite living here rent free and constantly making a mess, he tries to start fights with everyone, and he's just generally an asshole.
Our parents always tell me not to get involved and leave it to them, but they're not doing anything either. I can't imagine that getting involved will end up any other way than me getting beat up or threatened anyway though, so it's probably for the best. I would be really happy if he would just go.
>>258744>>258741Funny enough, he keeps his door locked now after my sister broke some of his equipment for being obnoxiously loud in the past. I guess we should have taken it all out while we still had the chance….

Mmkay, so, today was a pretty touch day, no shame in saying.
Really tough.
But my breaking point was not my boss, but my boss's boss having an issue that led to my boss finally having The Talk with me.
About my hair color.
Which is bullshit and hella demoralizing because at the end of the day my achievements and work being overshadowed by green hair dye seems… Inexplicably stupid. You can't tell me it's cause hurr durr my conservatism either, half of city hall is lesbians (which, I love ofcourse).
It just sucks.
I've had some time to cool down and sort my emotions out and I'm starting to look at my options since I have tomorrow off I can do something then, but, just overall feeling meh.
Like, it's just hair color, I'm only planning on being there another year anyway, but I guess it's the straw that broke me because it's been such a particularly hard day.
Thankfully I have an awesome s/o and boss who both consoled me about it (boss even gave me a talk about depression and batting for me, but only so much can be done) I'll get over it.. But right now it's the rock in my shoe I keep huffing about every 15 minutes cause it's fresh.

You say he seems happy and you don't think you've been doing as badly as other owners, but then you say you made his life hell? Maybe your depression is warping your perception.
But anyway it sounds like you really love him, don't you think giving him away might exacerbate your depression whereas looking after him well would make you feel better? I think it would be good and healing for you if you could use him as motivation, like maybe you can set yourself small goals and daily tasks and things related to his care. A lot of people need to do things like that to get through their depression anyway.

Also im skinny fat w/ small boobs, my body hair is thicker and darker than average, terrible dark circles, i have emo scars on my arm which make me look like a histrionic,
oh and worst of all i have beef curtains w/ terrible hyperpigmentation. because of this my ex of 2 years literally never saw me nude for our entire relaionship never even once. it makes me feel disgusting and the memes about it make me want to kms. it makes me scared to become intimate with anyone
it gets to the point where i feel shame pierce me whenever i find a boy cute because i feel like i dont deserve to, because i know if he somehow subconsciously knew, he'd be disgusted with me.
i talk with this qt online who probably barely even thinks about me. if i ever do send him pictures of me they're deceptively lit/angled and look nothing like me in real life. if i knew him in person i wouldnt be able to make any eye contact with him

Im tired of constantly being treated like a monster
First my parents, I never touched a recreational drug in my life,ever since I was 7 yr old they would accuse me of being on drugs, go through my things, threaten to drug test me if I did something even slightly off like miss the bus or be late to class once, I've gotten bullied constantly growing up so I've only ever had a handful of friends that came in went, anytime I lose a friend, at 11 fucking years old, instead of being there for me they asked me if "I was doing bad things to my friends", at night I could hear them talking ever since primary school about how they think I'm this this and that or whatever, it made me feel super paranoid and dirty, I wanted to at least know what I did
Second my teachers, I've had past teachers go out of their way to prove I did something wrong, I've taken the blame for students several times, I've had teachers take my things, students go out of their way and make up stories about me to get me in trouble, etc etc, I just wanted to know WHAT i did that was so wrong for people to treat me this way, I just want to for once feel innocent and clean and not like if I make one wrong move I'll get accused of insane shit
Then my boyfriend, now that I graduated I thought it was an only high schooler type thing since you know teens and kids like getting into trouble, NOPE I already posted this on Crystal but he's constantly accusing me of hiding things, over nothing to, like when I got sick a few days ago he kept telling me how "he feels I only tell half truths" and how "I should be honest with him if I know why I got sick", not even the first time, I almost got robbed a while back and when I told him I was stressed his first reaction was to accuse me of hiding things
This is gone on for too long, im extremely desperate to PLEASE know what I did so wrong for people to treat me this way? i feel like a nutcase, it's making me extremely paranoid to the point where I never ever even open my mouth unless I 100% need to out of fear I'll get accused of something, but sometimes me not even opening my mouth isn't enough to not get accused of anything, am I that bad of a person?

I fucking hate depression. I hate that I can't function emotionally like an adult without putting meds into my body. Its like I'm not a human being, just a broken robot that needs artificial parts to function. I hate I let my emotions get the best of me and I lash out and spew word vomit and vitriol I know I don't mean. I sometimes forget that I got diagnosed with DPD and then I remember how I can't do shit without someone holding my hand. I wonder why my boyfriend hasn't left me constantly and I beg him to leave me because he deserves better than the pile of shit that is me. Then I remember its the DPD and depression talking and its an endless cycle of feeling worthless/helpless and reminding myself to take a chill pill you can actually do stuff on your own. I just wonder what its like to not get so easily stressed out and be so fucking clingy. Is there such a thing as neurotypical?

Sometimes it’s best to hide them from your social media so you don’t have to see their name pop up and feel sad and wonder these things.
If he wanted to talk, he’d reach out… trust me.. sorry you’re going through it anon, but holding onto little hopes like this only prolongs your pain.

Work has gotten worse but I need to last here until the fall after my vacation before I can think about quitting.
For the past month at my call center every day has been in overtime. They gave too many people too much advance time off, fired a bunch of others, and the center is always busier in the summer regardless.
It's never been this bad though.
Worst of all is that since it's so busy they never give any timecard leave, and that was my only saving grace starting in this company. That it would be flexible and I wouldn't have to bank on actually working a full 9 hours in this pit everyday and now it's hell. The customers are hellish.
I've also got to work for 9 days straight because my schedule got switched over recently. I've almost maxed out my credit by paying people to take my shift and now I can't really do that anymore. It's so unbearable, but I have to make this work somehow. Ugh.

I just found out that my supervisor is known to harass new coworkers until they quit. The chased off 4 people before me, one of them was working for 8 years and couldn't handle her shit anymore. My supervisor isn't even a manager or anything, just an accountant that keeps forcing herself into every possible situation she can.
Yesterday a manager and two tech guys had to go check out the new security cameras they want to buy and of course she went with them. One of the tech guys told us how she didn't comment or say anything while in the store, but sure as hell ate a lot while they had to stop for lunch at a restaurant and how uncomfortable she made them all feel.
Anyway, the contract I signed said that trial and learning period is 6 months and she's giving me shit already, after 1 month how I'm not good enough yet, making mistakes etc. I might actually get fired on Friday because of this. And no, the job isn't easy, mostly because a lot of the costumers have different discounts, shipping agencies etc that I don't know yet and generally there's a shit ton of stuff I still have to learn, including working in two more programs. She also keeps insisting that I was shown things which I haven't and refuses to listen at all.
Tomorrow is going to be another, and final, day where she'll judge my performance. I know she'll keep interrupting me and my coworker to ask basic and stupid questions because it's not her department and she doesn't really know how our jobs work. We also have a bit of trouble with two tomorrows costumers and I have no doubt she'll keep asking me about it while it's my first time dealing with them.
At this point, even if all goes well I might just quit. I know no work place is perfect, drama and bullshit are everywhere but this is absolute crap and I'm tired of it.
She can go fuck herself.

>>259071I feel like I use to work in that company. I had a female supervisor that was always contradicting herself in regards to my terms of probation and accusing me of misconduct. I ended up quitting and getting my wage backdated in full because I had signed a contract and they would wishy washy if I was on probation or not even after being the only new worker from my recruitment group passing a certified exam, everyone else got put into sales and I alone went to a different department because I had 3 years prior industry experience.
The job before that an older women picked on me and several other girls we were all around 22-30 and she accused us of being the reason she was not being able to conceive through ivf meanwhile one of the ladies she was harassing had actually suffered a miscarriage and she took us consoling her in whispers about it the morning she came into work as us plotting against her. People are bizarre in the workplace I tend not to form close relationships with coworkers anymore it just creates drama.

>>259072Depends what company you work for.
You could be in a call center for cell phone carriers, banks, tech, travel, etc. Someone else I know does one for Paypal. So what you do is gonna depend on how complicated the service is.
Me? I work for an airline doing sales and customer service. I get a cubicle where I sit all day unless I'm on break or lunch, and I do nothing but take inbound calls and use the company software on a computer. Once a month I have a business meeting to break the monotony I guess.
Sounds easy, and physically it is. Yet mentally it's both the most boring and stressful job you will ever have.
Every call center operates differently but by and large this is universally true. What makes me stay is the health insurance, vacation time, and flight perks. And I guess the pay isn't awful, but it should be higher for all that I have to know about the industry and the bastard customers I deal with.
No one ever calls an airline customer service line because they're happy with us.
Oh and my hours suck and I have to work almost all holidays except the ones that happen to fall on my weekends off.
Don't work in one unless you have to, and if you do go for big companies like mine because at least they'll treat you better than average.
