I feel really dumb asking this, but my dad told me this was a radon detector in my room right above my bed..but I feel suspicious thinking it might be a camera recording me. It's right above my bed. Idk during an incident my dad admitted he knows what I do at least in other parts of the house via cameras that were always recording inside and that he was able to view via his phone and my bf said it hasn't always been there and I have terrible memory and am paranoid…please tell me this doesn't look like some kind of camera and I am just freaking out for no reason lol

Likewise, losing weight looks like success (obvious anachans excluded).

Maybe not everyone hates themselves and their lives when they get fat, but I sure af did.

toxic ones, when I would never do or say anything bad but exist. I don't treat people like garbage, and even if I think they're garbage, I keep it to myself and just not talk to them.

Anyway, think about why you have ever said a comment about some girl who was wearing a bad outfit or something like that. Nobody cares about her, it's just funny to point out other's fuck ups. People laugh, we bond in us vs them laughter, certain behavior is rejected and other behavior is accepted to build a sense of community. You are not good, you are not bad. Statistically, you are liked by some and disliked by others. You cannot change this. You can cope with this by adopting fuck you i'm edgy like me, you can "i'm baby" 23 year old woman with pastel hair your way into trying not to receive criticism because you're so openly vulnerable, or just live with the fact that we humans like to pass comment and none of it is actually relevant. i find it interesting that you seem to have used this site before to follow a cow (not knowing about advice threads) but you admit to taking it hard when someone makes a small comment. Do you make those comments about cows too? Do you read and laugh at comments? This isn't necessarily bad behaviour, literally nobody doesn't indulge in this.

I think convention is just a term used to describe someone at ease. There's so many conventional beauties that are all styled and look different. They just wear the look so well they become hallmarks.
Although, being thin with curves, having clear skin, thick hair, a symmetrical face with well balanced features can't hurt anyone.

I've been under the impression for all of my life that to have cold sores, you have to have some from of the herpes virus, because the virus is what causes cold sores. Is that correct or incorrect?
Earlier I was discussing with my husband the stigma around cold sores and how they're inaccurately associated with high sexual activity, sexual promiscuity, bad hygiene, etc. when that's rarely the case, especially with HPV. He mentioned that he'd had cold sores (or a cold sore, I can't remember exactly) before even though he didn't (or thought he didn't) have any form of herpes, STDs, or STIs. I told him that he'd have to have some form of the virus, even if transmitted non-sexually, to have a cold sore. He denied and responded saying that he got tested before we became sexually active (he had a sexual history but I didn't, I lost my virginity to him) and that the results for "everything" came up negative, but he didn't specify "everything" he was tested for. I got my mandatory HPV vaccines as a teenager but it's possible, if I'm correct, that he could be carrying some form of herpes and have no idea. For our own sake, which one of us is correct? Is there anything else that I'm missing?

>>566298attraction is a complex topic for me but i think more women are attractive than men. women simply are more beautiful and sexier.
while i think my bf is adorable and cute and i like his body, i'm not delusional and don't show him to people more than necessary. but since i find so many men "meh", appearance isn't the main thing for me.

>>566298I'm straight and I would say a lot of my attraction to men relies on non-physical attributes. Most men aren't really that eyecatching to me and if I passed them on the street I wouldn't think twice, but if I got to know them and it turns out that they're funny, charming, kind, etc. then I will start to feel attracted to him even if he's not necessarily a perfect 10/10.
Also men that aren't literal models or actors often photograph terribly lmao. Even cute guys I know IRL always look sort of awkward or goofy in pictures.
No. 566352
>>566298Unfortunately, yeah. But I can admit men (especially the little rat men I find attractive) are less aesthetically pleasing in a conventional sense than almost all women. In fact I'd say the ugliness juxtaposed with just a few harmless/endearing features (small frame, large eyes) is what attracts me to males at all and fascinated me artistically for years.
All of that said, I do prefer women and wish I was also a lesbian. And I enjoy unconventional/"frumpy" women just as much haha.

Most people say that they saw it as a teen (aged 14-20) and thought it was bland and pretentious, but fell in love after rewatching it at 25+. Happened to me as well. You really need to see it from an adult's perspective to "get" the dialogue, character motivations and narrative it lays at your feet. Hideaki Anno was a clinically depressed, disillusioned 30-35 year old when he was writing the series and that's probably why it resonates with the like-minded demographic so much.
However I don't think NGE is depressing. It's more like peer support fiction for depressed people.

>inb4 seething roastie scroteposts Cease all porn use immediately. Cease casual sex. Abstain from masturbation. Only consume relatively wholesome romance that connects with you emotionally. After a month (or longer depending on how much you coomed before), maybe try training yourself to get off using vanilla imagination. However it’s critically important that you stop masturbating immediately if in the middle of it your thoughts start slipping into
abusive fantasies.
It’ll be hard and you’ll relapse but honestly, it changed my life. I was so pornsick I just radiated “worthless bpd fuckhole” energy and guess the type of dudes that get attracted to that. As with all things, through discipline, I think about the fucked up shit less and less. Every now and then I get exposed stimulus, but the chimp like id arousal becomes more and more subdued. I have almost reverted back to a state of being before porn. Kdrama-like romantic gestures excite me, being spoiled and doted on and pursued excite me, holding hands excite me, good long back rubs can almost make me cum. It’s great. It feels fucking good to cum without the “I’m disgusting” afterthought. It feels good to cum when you feel loved.

I'm not baiting I swear, not a transphobe or super conservative either. Can someone explain to me in plain terms why drag queens aren't cancelled?
I used to love RPDR and follow drag queens, I loved the performance art and the costumes, appreciated the effort they put in and liked the popularisation of sort of blurring gender lines, buuut I think their terms and how they present themselves are really problematic. AFAIK drag queens mainly identify as male, but their representation of women is often bimbo like? And thye'll use female specific slurs like cunt and bitch, and it left a bad taste in my mouth when I realised the term "fish", to indicate someone is female passing, is referencing vagina smell rather than like a fish pout as I previously thought.
And I mean, why is it OK for men to be referencing truly looking like a woman like this? Moreover, why is it accepted as a super progressive thing? If it's FROM men, and ABOUT women, it isn't reclaiming slurs in any way, it just feels like one of many ways women are demeaned.
But it's done in suuuch an overt way and is so widely accepted by progressive people that I feel like I'm missing a trick here, you know?

It was also the biggest city I lived in though. Oh also when I was 13-16 and a pudgy awkward girl, I had a spike in catcalls then for some reason.

I told her step back no one takes a whore seriously are you going to carry on making violent threats or shall i ring the police? I am not rolling around with a 60 year old woman over a man that I made clear I had no interest in. I told him to control her. she put her face into mine and said I will make sure you will NEVER EVER have the chance to speak to him again. I told her HE INVITED ME TO ORGIES, and had a code for when you were about. HE was always contacting ME! she then said I must give up fencing? This year I won silver, before that GOLD, his squad are elderly co can't do much moves nor do they visit other countries etc. i said NOPE NO WAY, He can stay if he stops harassing me, if you come along I will get you banned, we are on CCTV camera and I made a recording of your threats. They both left. The hubris of him thinking I would be interested in his 70 year old cock. kek.

Why do so many women love true crime? 90% of women I've met from the ages of 25-65 just eat it up. I know of famous cases and have read a little about them, but I don't go listening to podcasts or watch true crime channels or read murder mystery books.

>>568880Definitely agree with anons, being a woman = having to constantly worry about being raped, killed, kidnapped, attacked, etc. Men don't have to keep safety in the back of their head at all times.
Podcasts and tv shows give women a "safe place" where they can live out their worst fears and try to understand them from every possible angle. It can make us feel neurotic, but we also feel more prepared for the world in a way.

Telling them as soon as possible also helps to weed out a certain portion of insensitive and dumbass people which is a bonus.

>I'm 18 and I don't have any relationship experience.If you're around average, your looks won't seriously affect your chances. Being wary of men (especially when dating) is necessary, but don't let it balloon into paranoia. Without knowing your personal circumstances, focus on building your career and friendships.

in japan two of my close friends are mixed and it all depends how you look. if you look pretty white or black or whatever, you'd be seen as that first and foremost and not mixed or asian. the half white girl would get mistaken as local japanese every once in a blue moon, but she and my other friend were almost always were treated as foreigners. blasians are definitely treated worse. things can get pretty racist, especially behind closed doors.

>>569893>>569933The average in japan for men is 5'7 and 135lbs, meanwhile in korea it's 5'9 and 160lbs (that's close to europe/usa minus the obesity), so yeah big difference. Plus korea is amongst the fastest growing countries, meaning lower average height but many taller young people.
About dating, there are like a gazillion videos on this on yt (usually titled something like "why i left japan/korea" or "why i would never date again…" kek) but in general japanese people/men seem to keep more to themselves (plus only very few speak english) and it's difficult to know how they really think about you because they tend to put on a polite facade while some koreans might be openly rude to you. Japan has many hapa or white girls on tv or as models but they don't really see them as fellow "humans", I also heard about people (normal ones, not our gaijin cows lol) living there for 10+ years who said they do have acquaintances but making true friends who open up to you is close to impossible. Imo korea appears to be a lot more modern and comfortable to live at as a foreigner, also just by the fact alone that they don't have the same "all women must be housewives" viewpoint that japan still has.

Also the people who used to be really popular back in 2015-2017 are still on the site and now 21-23 years old and still kinning and still making callout posts while calling everyone a retard and blaming it on their self dxed autism, which is very embarrassing
The most recent drama I witnessed was this basic white girl (literally, so white looking) got called out for faking her race and pretending to be black/arabic, etc. for so many years and even getting her mother to lie for her to her friends but before everyone called her out, they all used to love her and even her friend (who is also popular as hell and also doing some racefaking) used to defend her whenever someone accused her of faking her race even tho it's so obvious that no black or arabic person looks like that lol

>>570066It's pretty depressing tbh I completely understand if someone also had a phase like that a few years ago (because tumblr communities can fuck with you a lot), even I had one and I grew up but she's still going at it and never really moved on. It's like she cannot live without cheap internet drama that no one outside her little bubble gives a fuck about because life isn't all about woke tumblr politics and which 14 year old
abused their partner. The only difference is that she's not that active like she used to be back in 2016 (which was her prime, the cringy "I can read minds and I am a child of the stars" about pages were really something). One thing that's also depressing is that she also got her little sisters into the entire kinnie Tumblr world. They also act the same way as she does (being edgy, saying slurs, etc.) and I don't know if it was also her who managed to get them into this but she said they both were trans at age 13. I'm sure they'll also start posting about doing drugs in a few years like their beloved big sister.
>>570068She used to be very popular back when she first started her Tumblr (idek which year but her blog used to be
http://archive.ph/izayaorihamha.tumblr.com). She was basically known for "cancelling" everyone and everything and attacking people, but one day she decided to delete and I think she came back a year later with another blog (which was probably
http://archive.ph/computerworm.tumblr.com -
http://web.archive.org/web/2019*/computerworm.tumblr.com) and then (
http://archive.ph/evilfriends.tumblr.com). She said she deleted the old one because people were "using a mentally ill kid as their attack dog" aka basically refusing to own up to her shitty behavior and blindly harassing people over internet drama because she is ~sooo mentally ill~ and it's the peoples fault!1!!1!!
On her newer blogs she also used to get into a lot of drama and she was known for canceling a lot of people with Amar. I think she was also the one who wrote the first callout ever or something like that (which was basically her drama with this Lucas dude
https://bpdshizuo.tumblr.com/post/149683302991/ronnie-unhelthy-callout-posted-82916) and then the entire Ackee thing came (
http://archive.is/XDEdG) and so on. Back then she also used to boast about abusing Benadryl (even had her own little gang called Benadryl boys) that probably attracted a lot of other kinnies who wanted to be as cool as Lisa-sama and started worshipping her bullshit.
I swear you can make a documentation about this.

>followers are Slateresque mindless immature addicts, actual 16 year olds or kinnie oldfags like us who return every so often to examine the messThis is so true lol they all behave like she does and it's literally like a religion where they worship the infamous Lisa for no other reason except for cool kinnie points.

>>570005the dating thing is spot on. i was approached for a few dates but it never amounted to anything because of language barriers. it was cute seeing guys try, and our conversations were mostly engrish and google translate. it's not impossible to fall in love, but it's hard to joke and vent to someone who gets only half of what you're saying, you know? besides, most japanese boys think that foreigners are fuck, not date material because of traditional values. they only want to show you off if you are a model tbh and whine if you don't wear makeup.
it's not impossible to make friends if you have a brain though. It's easy to make friends from work, who in turn introduce me to locals. All you have to do is be the proactive one, because the japanese person will probably not be the one to step up and ask you to hang out unless it's some big work event or party where they want to show off the foreigner. if you are a austistic introvert in america with no friends, you will be an autistic introvert in japan with no friends. being white or mixed isn't a personality.

tiktok actually has a filter which prioritises certain videos gaining more traction. the filter or algorithm can tell if the surroundings in a video look 'clean' and 'well kept' as opposed to 'messy' and 'poor looking' I guess which means you're more likely to see vids with pristine surroundings and not bedrooms with clutter everywhere.
tl;dr there are tiktok teenagers in their poorer looking surroundings, you're just less likely to come across them cause tiktok is biased. also applies to people they deem ugly

>>570420I read a self help book called “The Subtle Art of Not Giving A Fuck” a while back and the dude says that happiness is fake and fleeting, you’ll never be able to truly obtain happiness or control when you’ll get those chances to be happy. You know what you can control though? The type of shit you’re willing to put up with. Like a “figure out what type of bullshit you want to sit through for the next 80 years of your life rather than figuring out how to obtain happiness that you’ll never actually get.”
I think I’m pretty happy, or at least more at peace with myself most days. Existing in a neutral state when the alternative is being depressed as fuck with few truly happy high says sprinkled here and there is a very nice place to be. That book helped me change the way I think about a lot of things that affected my happiness, and I also switched up job environments (retail for a boring, office job), and even though I get paid less, it’s done wonders for my mental health. I don’t think my brain is wired this way, most of my life up until maybe this year I went through bouts of depression and was constantly suicidal. Life experiences, slowly figuring out what made life worth putting up with, and what I want to look forward to keeps me going. I know maybe I’ll get shit for taking advice from a self help book, but I don’t have health insurance for therapy and it’s helped me changed my way of thinking for the better so I don’t give a fuck lol.

I then applied the fake it till you make it strategy and it took a few years to manage to develop positive thoughts without forcing them. I would literally force myself to find a positive thing about every situation I would encounter in real life or see in tv. It felt dumb at first but I got in the habit and like I said it made me more positive on the long run, and I’d go as far as to say I’m a happy person overall now. People also respond way better to you when you’re positive so it’s the opposite of a vicious circle if that makes sense.
Tldr ; fake it till you make it worked for me

>>571097I'm not really overweight anymore but I'm definitely below average in looks/physique, so I'll speak from experience and hopefully it helps someone.
I unironically think being average/ugly can be a dating advantage if you use it to make people focus on the rest of you–even when I was fat all of my bfs have been objectively very good looking, loving, and popular. I've thought about it a lot and I really think it's because they saw me as someone who I has more to offer than looks–in my case it seems to be my "intelligence" and quirks, along with how I present myself and treat them as a partner.
I'm going to try my best not to sound like an annoying tradwife in this next part: the key to dating success for me as a non-Stacy has been taking my mother's lame cultural sexist ideas of female servitude and adapting them to my own values. Even though I think it's bullshit that those expectations exist, men are extremely simple and usually appreciative of (ugh, sorry) traditionally "feminine" behavior. You don't have to be a doormat "sub" like Shoe or something, just little gestures that feel natural to you but seem like you're putting in extra effort. I do very simple things like spritz on some perfume before I go to bed with my bf, and whenever I'm going to meet someone I make sure to grab a pastry or snack for them on my way there. Generally just make sure you're more interesting and desirable than Stacy, and make sure you truly see your own value (because I guarantee you are worth way more than you think)
No. 571199
>>571171As a Stacey with a nerd personality, I have noticed most guys don't go for the hottest girls, they definitely value more homemaking skills and such over looks alone. Very attractive girls have a problem of being considered bang material only, men find it hard to concentrate or see you as a person if their main interest is sticking the dick in you.
Think of the cliche wife, brown or red hair, more demure dress, maybe a more thick or curvy body. The cliche girlfriend, shag or fling is blonde with more feminine clothes and a more slim or athletic body. "Stacey" is an invention by men who have never dated any women, as most normal men find it easier to handle and treat as a human, more average looking girlfriends.
Also Stacey types are unlikely to bother doing kind things for males since they get attention even when putting in no effort, plus kindness is usually ignored when they are predisposed to sex.

I had a friend who would gush over her 'manly' (hairy and fat) hubby so much that tbh she really highlighted it to me. She put so much effort into her own appearance but described loving his manly smell (meaning his b.o) Really feels like we've been duped into accepting that shit as attractive.

Okay so I’ve always lowkey thought about dating a woman and as of lately I’ve been highly considering it. But I’ve always only been attracted to guys but I’ve had times where I’ve gone out and girls have hit on me but I was too dense to realize until after it happened. but thinking back to those moments I always wished I would’ve exchanged numbers and at least got to know them. There was a time where a bi girl was flirting with me and I was flirting back but then my drunk friend ruined it by asking to kiss her so it never went anywhere. But I remember my heart racing and I still think about her even now my heart is beating a little lol.A big reason why I’ve never tried to a date a girl is because I know how hard lesbians have it in finding a partner and I don’t want to feel like I’m experimenting even though I guess I would be? But like I’m not trying to in a bucket list kind of way I truly want to see if I’m at least bi? But I don’t want to use another woman as a test you know? I guess my stupid question is how do you figure out if you truly would be in a relationship with another woman if you saw yourself as straight most of your life and without leading a girl on? That’s my biggest fear I truly don’t wanna hurt anyone’s feelings. Sorry if it’s so long and so dumb! Be brutally honest and if you have advice please tell me!

>>572261I'd rather date tall and a little uglier but that's just me. Height is an attractive quality and being short is hell imo. I'm 5'3 and every guy I've dated around mine has had little man syndrome. One was 5'5 but claimed in seriousness he was 6' and had an inferiority complex in other areas of his life that made him act like a shitbird. I rarely see short men with attractive facial qualities and I have no interest in asian men.
I want a partner to have kids with and I'd feel bad if they had to deal with issues that being short brings. My mother was 5' but luckily my dad was pretty tall so I got a few extra inches but not much. I have a pretty face so it would balance out in our kids who would get the benefit of both worlds.
I'm a professional and it's super discouraging that the tall people are the ones who become c-suite executives and get promotions. While shorties like me are treated like we're still college interns in our early 20s and aren't taken as seriously. Even our anger is minimized and treated patronizingly. We don't have a natural presence in a room and it's hard for people to see us as leaders, and double it when you're a woman. There's a reason why men hate being short and it's because they don't naturally assume the privileges of their tall male cohorts both romantically and professionally.

I have a personal theory that short guys that date tall girls are more likely to be confident and emotionally stable about their height, but short guys that exclusively date short girls are more likely to have small man syndrome because some of them are insecure enough to actively only seek short girls to date. I'm basing this entirely on my own experiences though.

>>572572If the cum and the egg are a little Japanese, they're also a little Caucasian. If you double the Japanese blood, you have to double the other blood too, then you're still back at half for each lol.

>>572616oh my god anon I've never heard someone else express those feelings, and so perfectly, jesus. the anxiety is real.
also the fact that even though I've gotten to a pretty good place with body acceptance and conquered most of the bullshit insecurity that plagued me for years, I have no idea if that will hold if/when I gain a significant amount of weight and that thought poisons the pride I have in myself for achieving some degree of body peace.

>>572614idk man, feels good, but I‘m pretty sure that wouldn’t be the case If I didn’t need to walk/ride the bike for multiple kilometers regularly. lose weight, fast, gain weight fast in this case. I quickly turn into a depressed skinnyfat if I stop moving or excercising.
>Do you just eat whenever you feel hungry?yes but sometimes the brain confuses hunger with thirst. what really helps me is restricting not how much, but when you eat so your body has enough time to properly digest everything (for example not start with a big breakfast, instead start eating at noon and have a big meal once a day in the evening and stop eating after). If you don‘t move much, you don‘t need as much food of course.
>>572616also this, if you have a bad time you will always find something to nitpick about your body.

>>572686They are common and normal anon. Not sure if this would be helpful to you but learning about postpartum intrusive violent thoughts really helped me accept and understand mine, even though I'm not a mom or anything. If it's normal and common for new mothers to have intrusive thoughts of hurting or killing their babies, then I can believe I'm not a bad fucked up person for having them.
There's nothing wrong with them but if they're causing you distress you should consider talking to someone about it. But if they don't bother you carry on.

>>572686Anon, idk if this input is even helpful in any way, but I had a really terrible flare up of intrusive thoughts last year that lasted almost 3 months. It started with thoughts about harming others, then myself, then snowballed into hundreds of other strange paranoias. I was beginning to wonder if I was schizophrenic. And it was so bad that I felt hopeless & thought the only way I could be cured was if someone locked me up in a straight jacket in a padded jail sell.
It popped up randomly over Labor Day weekend, and I would like to add that I had just started my period, so there may have been some hormonal fluctuation that
triggered these emotions, but I had NEVER felt like this before. I suddenly realized how easy it would be to kill my boyfriend, family, and coworkers with random objects around me. I remember having the worse panic attack of my life, tried to calm down and nap but couldn’t because I couldn’t stop thinking about knives that were in the kitchen, and ended up calling a suicide hotline. I couldn’t sleep or eat for like two weeks.
I eventually spoke to a therapist and got on some anxiety meds, but I never told anyone the exact thoughts I was having, only a really vague statement of having constant unpleasant thoughts. I was too worried they’d call the police and stick me in a looney bin. The feeling finally went away in the winter; since then I have an intrusive thought every now and then, but my general train of thought and brain fog prevents me from focusing on it too long.
…Anyways, I digress, but I just wanted to let you know that you aren’t the only one who has violent intrusive thoughts, and what I’ve been through, and that I was able to get through it. Please do the best you can to find pleasant things to keep you amused and busy. And most importantly remember that you are not your thoughts, and that you are not an evil person because of your thoughts.

How do I get over my crush who is 90, and how do I stop being mad about a woman he was with 40 years ago?

>>572614>How does it feel to be naturally skinny? It feels great, I'm 29 and I never worried once in my life about being too fat yet.
>Do you just eat whenever you feel hungry?Yes, and being hungry makes me cranky.
>Do you ever think about food?Everyday, I love eating good food.
IMO one key point is that I'm not very fond of sweet food. I do like cake and biscuits and eat some everyday but while I can eat a lot of cheese or meat for example, heavily sweet food will make me stop quickly. I tend to buy biscuits with a lowish amount of sugar and when I make cake I also put a lower quantity.
Another thing is that I tend to feel full rapidly. I also get hungry rapidly after my last meal, but it's more complicated to eat 5 small meals a day versus eating 2 big meals.
I've never counted calories but I'm probably eating an average amount of it for my built.
>>572698>it makes me wonder if my body language is giving off bad vibes.It's very possible. The way you act and dress counts for a lot of your perceived attractiveness.
No. 572709
>>572698I feel this. I have a secret suspicion that something about my body language/expression/vibe is off-putting because I feel like I hear constant anecdotes both online and irl of girls getting hit on/harassed, from all over the attractiveness spectrum, and this has essentially never happened to me. I'm not worried about it but the sheer number of times I've heard people talk about being "hit on" compared to the literal 0 occurrences of that I can identify happening to me kind of boggles me. I wonder if it's just that I'm too much of an autist to properly interpret things like that.
fwiw I've never used them either but getting attention on dating apps as a woman doesn't seem very hard if you're trying to
>>572707Not the OP but I am an incredibly reserved person and it's weird to think about how much that might come off to people before even talking to me, because I have no idea.

>>572659I guess it depends. I can imagine it being enjoyable if you're in love with your partner and the guests are supportive of the relationship. I was nervous and stressed out about how my parents were going to behave. It was nice when it was over.

>>573358Depends on who you are. If you’re kind of a loser, yeah there’s nothing interesting about being in an American high school.
The only interesting thing that happened at my high school was all the seniors contracting chlamydia from sleeping around with each other.
