There genuinely are some men who don’t get hard for women they aren’t romantically interested in —normal human beings basically.

toxic masculinity. Very rare but they exist. It's easier to be with a well-adjusted, mentally healthy man than a man with trans issues and other sorts of mental illness. Plus the fact that he trooned out in the first place means he has a sexist view of women which is hard and almost impossible to fix.

>>1521368 said, men transition BECAUSE they hate women, not because they hate men. MTF's are 99% sexually motivated, both AGP's and HSTS. Best bet is finding a moid who rarely uses the internet, lives a lowkey life like out in a more suburban or rural area, maybe one who was raised only by his mother and has a good relationship with her, and who doesn't have degen male friends. Trouble is that's hard to find.
No. 1521603
>>1521407complete coincidence. actually I found out the guy I was into was like this after we were already together. I was just thinking with demisexual/romantic being an actual term people use now maybe it could be useful.
Signs he was like this: He was a prude but not in a slut-shaming way, it was always directed at the guy friends he had just calling them gross for having sex with anyone they could. Literally never once did he express any happiness for a guy who had a one night stand, at best he just listened silently and then they stopped telling him about it. When he was in a relationship he spent the majority of his time with her ("joined at the hip") and made plans around her. He expected the same and things would only fail when the woman didn't reciprocate.
–This is all very vague but I think it's probably better stuff to look for than dating a TIM and trying to detrans him which seems like an absolutely insane and cursed path

I need advice!
I currently am employed through a family friend to take care of a 91 year old woman. Have done child care previously, took care of my mom after her stroke, handled food, cleaning services, etc. Recently got the opportunity to take care of someone who only asked for women, and my brain immediately went to "oh I can help another older woman out!" Ended up being a man. We did a few phone interviews and he says the state will pay for me to get certified PCA license. But it all smells fishy to me. He wants to "trade back rubs" and go to Strip shows where women are topless. As a bisexual woman, it's not a big deal but it's how the conversation was presented. As well as texting, he said "send however risque texts or pictures as you want! We're going to have fun!" So now it just doesn't feel like a safe option.
I love taking care of people but not at the cost of safety or compromising morals. Should I back out? I just read a text he sent that "20+ women backed out" but no shit if even at his old age, he's still talking to people like that. I'd rather just have a part time at McDonald's than worry about some old dude trying to feel me up or expect the opposite.
Obviously putting this in the dumb thread because I'm obviously stupid for even entertaining the idea. I would love a solid license, but as mentioned, not if I'm doing any of that gross shit.

>>1522612Tbh I see current day’s beauty industry more as a symptom of capitalist society than patriarchy. It’s very consoomerist. We were drawn in by marketing tactics, but have reached the point where it’s now so common for women to wear make-up that you might stand out if you don’t, just for existing in your natural state. It’s the same narrative with plastic surgery. If you criticize it it’s always “what about free will durr”. As if we live in a vacuum. I don’t wear make-up, but that said even I can understand for some it’s a fun and creative hobby. But when you think about the increasing environmental impact from production, transport and waste, that is probably only increasing because of online shopping and social media, not to mention you are caking your face with probably

>>1523500My opinion is from a mentally ill person's perspective but I also believe that the will to isolate is often rooted in some sort of issues in one's life unless you're about to become a hermit living in a cave in order to meditate so… I'm sorry to assume that your reasons to isolate might not be to reach enlightenment.
For me isolation has often caused my day rhythm go absolutely off the rails. Since I won't be going anywhere or seeing anyone I might also let go of my standards for personal hygiene and the state of my apartment. Both of these contributed to the perceived need to isolate, like I can't leave my apartment because I look like a fucking gremlin and I can't let anyone in because my apartment looks like a landfill.
Also if you have a problem in your life, not necessarily a mental health problem per se but like some emotional issues or you're hung up on something that has happened to you it might snowball out of control. Since you spend so much time by yourself surrounded by yourself and your thoughts it might be a bit too easy to lose the big picture, your mind might exaggerate the scope of your issues.
I can distract myself to a certain extent but eventually I can't run away from all the chaos inside and outside of my mind. The longer you isolate yourself the harder it becomes to stop it even for a short while to step outside to get your mail or go to the store. I'd become anxious and even borderline paranoid about leaving the safety of my apartment. Yes, I have been mentally extremely unwell during my worst isolation periods but isolation absolutely made it all worse.
I am an introvert and never have really had that many friends, I can easily go without meeting up with anyone for months so feeling alone usually isn't an issue, but I think at some point almost everyone's mental state starts to crumble if you have zero social interactions. Despite of being really well adjusted to being alone even I would start to feel like my life was so sad and worthless when my only irl social contacts were my mental health nurse and the cashier at the store.

>>1523572I had the privilege of total isolation for 2 weeks (no contact with uni, friends or family) and I think it's a dangerous thing. For me it fucked with my ego in that I thought I was one of the smartest ever and normies are dumb shits, but it made me SO sensitive to any perceived slights, whether it be how the cashier looked at me or seeing something online that disparaged something I like kek.
If you start to ruminate it can really fuck you up. I was definitely mentally ill at the time of isolation and it made me someone much more bitter to how you have to be to function in society. However we're social creatures and can't reject it outright, and need to embrace it if we want to thrive. I don't know your circumstances but I would recommend you go the opposite way and try have a super social set amount of time. I hate being around people, they're very exhausting but when you're fully on your own longish term it's like you cease to exist. Personally during those 2 weeks I had a lot of fun but I wouldn't repeat it because it took a long long time to reintegrate myself even to the subpar social level I was at before.

I've seen sometimes people can think they are doing this in a healthy and productive way (isolating to dedicate all their time to self-improvement, for example) but it's actually extremely unhealthy (thinking you need to be perfect or achieve some arbitrary goal before you can socialize or be around people).
I think it's possible that isolation for a time could be a healthy thing but I also think that is very rare. And from my experience, if something is telling you that you need to isolate, it's very important to figure out why that is.

>>1523587>But what if i choose to isolate, looking after the best experiencing possible while isolating? Planning everythig so i'm able to be healthy (exercises, maybe journaling and even meditating)Nta but I was isolated in this way for a couple years, I didn't talk to anyone (I went to the grocery store and other necessary things though where I 'interacted' with a cashier) but I was healthy in all other ways, like with exercise and eating well, and I'm also not mentally ill. In my experience the actual isolation was fine, I feel way more stable and relaxed when I'm by myself, but the longer you spend alone the harder it is to integrate back into the social world. Recently I had to start going out again which forced me to break my isolation (I still don't talk to anyone, but I'm around people more often), and I'm finding it an absolutely horrible experience kek. I think having a baseline amount of social interaction like some other anons said is for the best, that way it's less of a shock to your system when you have to be around people.

>>1523846How fancy are we talking about? Because I’ve gone to some fancy as fuck places and no one ever wears dresses like pic related unless they’re coming from/ going to some party.
I mean, you can always just go to the fancy restaurant and wear your dress, there’s nothing wrong with it, I’m just saying it’s not really the dress you wear specifically to go to a restaurant no matter how fancy it may be.
Plus you would be eating and it could get dirty with the food or drinks. You can always take it to the dry cleaners though.
I’m honestly having a hard time imagining wearing a dress like pic related to anything other than a party, like a new year’s party, maybe a Christmas party even, weddings, other religious events, graduation parties, fancy birthdays, anniversaries, maybe the opening/success of some business, a very fancy baby shower. But otherwise I just can’t think of an occasion, maybe some other anons have more ideas.

>>1523880you can always just spend a 'night on the town' in it. someone might ask if if you're headed to a party or something and you can tell them you just feel like treating yourself to a nice evening.
several years ago i would never wear anything that made me stand out, i liked to hide. i moved to the city and within a month or two i realized i could wear anything i wanted, outlandish even, walk around downtown and everyone would probably just think I'm going to or coming from something and not give it a second thought. it sounds stupid but it was a real waking up moment for me that led to me being more bold and creative in what i wore.
so just treat yourself to some nice evenings where you feel good and look good in the dress. check out event websites and stuff for things you might be interested in where you could wear it and feel comfortable in.
unfortunately even at operas, where classically people would dress up fancy and formal to attend, are full of people in jeans and gym shoes. so above all else you just gotta wear it because you want to, because you will likely be best dressed wherever you go regardless.

No. 1524926
>>1524899This sounds like it could be also ADHD, like starting new hobbies and getting bored with them soon, rejection sensitivity (you might want to check out RSD), being moody. I can see a lot of myself in these and I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder but I could definitely have some undiagnosed issues as well. You do describe some symptoms of bpd as well, I'm not too familiar with the diagnostic criteria but stuff like
>when somebody flakes me i start thinking of why they are annoying and stupid anywayscould be splitting.
Or you could have depression. You could have a lot of things based on this description.
All those things can also coexist, and it is also entirely possible that you do have some issues in your life but not fulfil the diagnostic criteria for any disorder. Everyone has some shit going on in their life and you can definitely work on them without an official diagnosis or even without a self-diagnosis. The thing is that to diagnose any disorder, be it personality or something else, requires a screening by a trained professional and it's very hard to do over the internet by anons just reading a list of issues.

>>1524945not in any way an expert, but from my understanding the amount of ram doesn't matter if your gpu is shit. it looks like both computers are fine, even though 512 GB is the bare minimum in my opinion. if you have the option to go for 1 TB or more, i'd say go for one with at least 1 TB. if you have an external hard drive and diligently sort out your files so they don't clog up your hard drive, it should be fine with 512 GB though.
if those are your only two options, i'd go for the 1st option. 16 gb ram should be just fine for modern games but if it's mostly retro stuff you're playing you should be good either way!

This is probably very retarded and socially inept of me but I really would like some advice/guidance, nonnas.
I matched with this woman on a dating app, we have quite a bit of an agegap (I'm 23, she's 37), but she said she didn't mind me being younger. Anyways, thing is what she wants and what I want are very different, she wants some real commitment, going the extra mile for the relationship while I don't really want that right now, I just want to try dating for the first time. But retard me didn't fucking say that, I did say I was unsure and such but. She also said she's prone to yelling and that's something I can't take at all.
We have a date arranged for tomorrow, I kind of don't want to go but I said I wanted to go, this is so fucking stupid of me, but I am realizing dating and all is just way too much energy-consuming and I don't want it, we've only talked for a week and I'm already exhausted talking to someone everyday outside of work. I don't think I want to be in a relationship, I just want to be alone as I have been for all my life. But how do I say this to her? Or do I just go to the date tomorrow? It would be my first ever date, but it will also be with someone I'm probably not attracted to, she said she is currently obese, which is fine whatever, but I am not into that either, I haven't seen her (she didn't put pics of herself, but she said she isn't good-looking so 'don't expect too much' but I'm very mid-looking too), I've talked to her on call. What do I do nonnas? She asked me if I am looking forward to tomorrow and I was like 'yeah!' but I'm not.

>>1525036No, she is definitely a woman, even if you'd think maybe she just had a very, very convincing female voice, she talked about feeling dysphoric and such as a lesbian in our frankly pretty shitty, religious country.
But I really want to cancel, it's so shitty of me though, because I've pretended I'm up for it but the type of commitment and relationship she wants is not something I can give to her. And that's going to come up sooner or later so I should pull the plug while we aren't so deep. Right?

>>1525040Thank you, truly. I WILL do this, I will text her. I need to stop saying yes to things I don't want to do. I don't even want a relationship, not right now. I like being alone way too much for that.
It will be out of absolutely nowhere for her because I was faking things, like a sped puppet, I hope she doesn't feel bad but it's better than giving her false messages.
>learn to say what you meanI struggle with this in general, especially at the workplace so I take on more than I can handle. Thanks a lot, I'll have to just do this. I need to. I'll prep myself and text her in an hour. I'm dreading it.

Why am I deeply missing the moid I dumped nearly a year ago even though I know our relationship would have been a messy dead end? Context:
>be me
>go through a terrible romantic situation Jan-March ‘21
>meet a gorgeous guy on the rebound May ‘21
>he is so sweet, great in bed and makes me feel special, but not special enough that I trust him to not flirt/fool with other girls when I’m not around
>on-off with him until he leaves the country Feb ‘22
>he keeps randomly hitting me up and replying to my story after he’s moved
>by June 22 I’m sick of it and tell him that unless he’s coming back to visit he needs to leave me alone and let me get on with my life
>radio silence since then
>Start missing him deeply about a week ago
What the fuck is wrong with me? How do I kick these feelings?

>>1526690I’ve done a pretty good job making him comfortable in admitting stuff to me. I’m not even interested in him romantically, he’s just an odd case so I’m moreso interested in picking his brain.
>>1526746He’s average, even after putting quite a bit of effort into his looks. Like no girl would look at him and be like, “oh, he’s hot!” But he’s not necessarily ugly either. He’s mentioned Hayley Williams from Paramore and Zooey Deschanel, and that he’s more into alt and bad girls than other types.
He loves pretty women way more than even the typical guy, which gets combined with his passion for statistics (our major, lel.) so personally I think the Tinder obsession is like him playing a slot machine, the numbers game, in trying to find the “best one.” He struck gold once with an ex who was a super pretty and smart sorority girl, so I wonder if he’s trying to do it again. I lowkey slut shame him and was able to tease him into finding out that he keeps track of every woman he has ever slept with in a list on his phone, which he says is for health reasons, but I think adds to the theory about this being a game for him.

No. 1526770
>>1526756He's an ugly man who thinks getting women out of his league will fix his self wroth issues. The list and him being obsessed with the one actual pretty girl he got proves this.
I had this ugly female friend, greasy hair, shitty outfits, very weird attitude and she also had a list of guys that showed her interest on her phone which she once read to us, most were either rich or studying in super prestigious schools but the "interest" in question was like texting her on an anonymous forum once or sending her a dm once on Instagram.
Your friend is I think struggling to with self worth issues just like my friend and that's why he's using those women to fix his ego. He sounds disgusting and I'd never talk to a man like that. Most guys who are obsessed with super pretty girls are redflags, they're %99 super porn addicted with folders filled with the women they're obsessed with and he unfortunately probably also ranks you like he does to other girls. He isn't a cute girlcrazy guy, he's a porn addict who's preying on women that aren't interested in him and keeping a list after he uses them.

His obsession with categorizing and, as you said, probably ranking women is so pornsick.
His research is interesting and he’s definitely a smart guy, but even just for a friendship, his messy personal life is hard to overlook. He might move to his ex’s city after graduation (they’re still friends), and if this rich and pretty woman actually takes him back… man, I’d feel so sorry for her. I wonder how much she knows.

Does anyone know if a kid who suffered from hypopituitary and who received growth hormone injections for years to compensate is supposed to still have symptoms as an adult after the treatment made them taller and helped the kid start puberty? For example is it normal for an adult who received that medical treatment to always be tired and have low blood sugar and low blood pressure even if the treatment to make that patient taller than predicted worked perfectly? Because this week I felt I was going to pass out everyday on my way home after work it's worrying me and endocrinologists never found anything strange when I had a bunch of tests done a few years earlier for the same reason.

Anons, do you think if the guy is truly interested, he always makes the first move? I have a coworker who supposedly likes me, he does nice things for me, he drives me home, he asked me if I have a boyfriend and talked about me with my friend, but he never invited me anywhere. I'm not very responsive because I'm an autist and I never dated anyone, so I don't know how to behave. But I always remember women telling me that if a guy actually wants you he makes the first move, but what is exactly the first move? Asking out on a date? And if yes, and he hasn't asked me out yet, does it mean he's not truly interested?

He may be interested in you but testing the waters to see if you are actually interested back.
If you aren't interested in him put up a firm wall of freindship and ignore his advances and he should back off.
If you are interested in him just initiate a date yourself and remeber dates just mean hanging out but with romantic intentions if you're too confused to plan something out.

For cosmetics it's legit but overpriced.
>>1527982check the pictures in the reviews so see how the fabric looks in real life.
look for items that aren't made of synthetics. Maybe denim since even cheap denim tends to last longer than other fabrics in the same price range.
My personal tip is to favor loose cuts because you'll put less strain on the seams, you'll sweat less so they won't need to be washed as often, and they can be layered easily if they turn out more transparent than planned or if I want to protect them from the inside with an undershirt. I have one aliexpress blouse I love and wear every season and I managed to make it last 2 years so far even though the fabric is Shein-tier. Though I also made sure to pick a color that would look good with some color fading.

>>1528689Yes I think you can try dating and if you find the right person they won’t judge you and will be understanding about what you are going through.
That said, I also highly recommend looking into other ways of gaining real life human contact (local hobby clubs, social events at local stores and venues, volunteering, even bumble bff) because placing all your hopes of alleviating loneliness on a potential romantic partner is very dicey. Even if a relationship turns out perfect it’s still not everything to fulfill a full social life, so it’s good to also look into seeing people platonically in person and possibly making more real life friends or even just friendly acquaintances you can spend more time around.

>>1528888Some of us do, there are plenty (like a lot) of women who don't get nail extensions due to things like personal preference and/or work. Whether or not long nails are common depends on where you live too, like in big cities it's like the standard to have acrylics and things like that. I live somewhere small and I get comments on my long nails a lot lol.
The men keep long nails just don't groom themselves tbh kek. Men don't take care of their hands/nails like women do so it's not intentional, they're not grooming and they most likely aren't keeping them clean either. Ladies here know to stay away from long-nailed men (well, most of us anyway).
No. 1528995
>>1528956I'm going to be honest with you, years ago I was just like you and I personally think just keeping up with the news and new trends and celebrity gossip should be enough. I've always been a turbo weeb and the reason why I had a hard time bonding with others when much younger wasn't just because we didn't like the same TV shows, I noticed in hindsight that it's because we barely had anything in common to begin with so my peers from middle school to university just wouldn't see any reason to hang out with or even make small talk with a brown girl like me who's too poor to hang out literally anywhere or have hobbies that can't be accessed without the internet.
Just be yourself, don't act like a sperg, try to know what's trendy or more generally popular with your peers in a general sense (like idk, I had coworkers in my previous job talking about Harry Potter being their childhood and people who didn't know shit about it still participated by asking questions about why it's so appealing or whatever), don't force yourself to get into hobbies just to socialize because it WON'T work at all. And keep in mind that sometimes depending on context, talking to normal people isn't always worth it, and I'm saying this based on how I was trying too hard to seem like a normie in high school and now I barely remember any of classmates' faces or voices or names and it's not affecting me whatsoever, it was a total waste of time and energy and I should have told them all to fuck off like I always wanted to and not eat with me during lunch break just because they mistakenly thought I was all alone and abandoned and sad while I was happily minding my own business and getting some rest from them. You said you're poor, pirating some video games, movies and TV shows you could like that other people like could be a start. Same with manga and novels I guess but that depends on which manga are considered normie-tier in your country and generation.
>do I really have to watch trash like Euphoria and pretend I care about Ice Spice? Do you really want to have long conversations with people who like that kind of stuff?

Most of the people I know don't only watch Marvel or Euphoria, many have "nerdy" hobbies too like video games, watch obscure films, like weird music, watch anime etc. I think many people have some interesting stuff they are passionate about if you just scratch the surface a bit. Ask what they like and ask what they like about it etc. and you have a conversation going most likely. You can also talk about other shit than media, like the situation you are in (school, work etc), life experiences…
ALSO, hobbies or the media you consume should not be what defines your personality. I think this anon
>>1528995 has good points, however I really think even the most turbonormiest of turbonormie can be interesting in some way and you could have some things in common with them.

I had no time or energy to watch all the latest anime shit (there's basically social pressure to be a weeb in my country) so what I did was spend a bit of time scrolling on social media reading hot takes about said anime shit and looking at pictures and then mash it all up to form a fake opinion.

>>1530546Usually they prescribe a basic SSRI to start you off. You’d probably need to be diagnosed with a serious panic attack disorder to get anything stronger like Xanax/benzos because they come with a risk of dependency. Beta blockers are also prescribed off-label sometimes.
personally I didn’t like ssris because it made my head spin and I felt unmoored in some weird indescribable way, but they completely took away my social anxiety! So that was nice. (regular dread anxiety remained though lol) I haven’t tried the others, I have an addictive personality and lower-than-average blood pressure.

>>1530546There's not a best medication for anxiety, it depends on you. I've been on like every one under the sun and not really one has worked. A lot of people like lexapro. Currently on effexor and would not recommend it as I have horrid night sweats and night terrors where I scream in my sleep. I'm trying to lower the dosage to get rid of the night terrors but the night sweats have been an issue for me since I started it.

No. 1530578
>>1530546Nona, first I'm sorry you're struggling with anxiety. It sucks. Unfortunately though there is no OTC medicine for anxiety, it has to be prescribed. You will not be able to just walk in to a psych office, say hi, get Rx and leave. You will have to do an intake appointment and then an appointment with a psych to discuss your issues and determine a regimen. My appointments are usually less than 20 minutes. I know it's hard but you have to see the process through - Nobody here can tell you what medication is best because there are many factors involved, such as your health, any comorbidities, interactions with other medications, etc. The office I go to, the therapist is an entirely different person than the psych who handles your Rx. But the psych does need to have an understanding of your issues in order to help determine what medication will work best.
There is a reason you have to go through these hoops, some medications may not agree with you or be right for you. Please don't go to some fly by night pill mill style operation that will just give you whatever you want. I suggest bringing a friend with you or seeing about telehealth where you can be seen from the comfort of your home if you can. Either way you are just going to have to bite the bullet and follow through, you are halfway there by realizing you need help and are seeking it out.
Good luck

>>1531485No. (But also sometimes yes if you have no credit or bad credit and want a certain type of job.)
The idea behind getting the card is so you can build good credit (easiest way to do that is get a credit card and use it occasionally and pay it off immediately for a few years.) Jobs can require you let them run a credit and background check before hiring you. There are jobs that deal with financial information where they want you to have a good credit score because the logic goes that if you have good credit you aren't in debt so you will be less likely to steal from the company or its clients. This is obviously stupid but so it goes. I've heard of companies that stopped running credit checks entirely because it's a useless waste of time and money, plus a lot of new hires had horrible credit from college debt, but plenty still do it. Dunno if you're a burger but it's legal in most states to deny someone any job based on bad credit, only restricted in like a dozen states and they have exceptions that allow it for financial jobs; not sure about other countries.

Why are there so many people that don't get hints when they keep talking about something you aren't interested in?
A friend keeps screenshotting and posting tons of cringy joke discussions from her six instagram roleplay accounts that all talk to each other and badly imitate a bunch of anime characters we like.
I don't want to tell her that it's shit but I cannot fake enjoyment either. It's terribly ooc and unfunny and I never reply to it so you would assume that she understands that I am not into it but she doesn't. She's 32 too which makes the roleplay worse it sounds like something coming from an autistic 12 year old.

She genuinely can't get it into her head that she needs to eat less and move more to stay thin.
You need to support your friend to make healthier choices. Go on walks together, offer to cook some meals for her so she doesn't get tempted by Doordash, watch a movie and bring low calorie snacks. Or talk about how much she's saving by not ordering food/eating out. If she doesn't change her lifestyle she won't lose weight.
>>1533188I suppose it helps the ones who have binge eating issues, if the food can't fit into your stomach then you can't binge. Obviously the stomach stretches over time so that's why so many of them get fat again. A friend of mine has considered everything from lipo to weight loss surgery to hypnotism to anorexia challenge diets, but hasn't even tried anything that'll help her lose weight slowly and steadily, like a normal diet and mild to moderate exercise. She's terrified of never losing the weight so she wants instant results. I suppose it's the same for most people who are willing to go to such extreme lengths when they could have gone for a walk instead.

Question inspired by Picky Eater Test from Unpopular Opinions thread.
What food/drink did you use to hate but now love/don't mind eating/drinking? And vice versa
I couldn't stand prunes at all, but now I actually like them, especially covered in chocolate or in the salads, for example with shredded beets and some walnuts. Could never imagine I'd eat salo/slanina, but I do enjoy it now if it has a little bit of meat, with borscht or other soups. As for falling out of love part, it doesn't really count because it was never my conscious choice, but my mom would feed me goat milk as an infant because she had problems with her own, and I hated it ever since. I could taste and smell it anywhere if it was added to mashed potatoes, pancakes, etc., and refuse to eat it. The smell alone gives me gag reflex.

There’s a guy I know, get along with, and really like for the first time ever. I’ve never had a boyfriend before (I’m older than you probably think, this sadly isn’t angsty teen posting), but I feel like this might be the first time!
I was very happy, but there is one thing and it’s destroying me:
I find him quite handsome, so I was afraid he has been a massive manwhore. I know the guy through my brother (they became friends a while back. They’re not super close, but they know each other somewhat well I think), so I asked my brother about the guy’s exes and if he “knows” a lot of girls. My brother said the guy told him he doesn’t like casual sex and takes relationships seriously, but then my brother added “Oh I think [girl] told me she had a thing with him for a short time, not sure what happened there or how serious they were”. [girl] is a girl my brother used to fuck. She’s also someone I really don’t like. The idea of the guy not only having a fuckbuddy but it being the same girl my brother was with has literally made me throw up. Even if they were seriously dating I really don’t like being with a guy who had the same “girlfriend” as my brother. I also don’t like it being her in general.
I don’t know what happened. Neither does my brother. How do I deal with this? Ask the guy? Stop caring? Still care but just leave it uncertain?
I want to scream. I really don’t know if I’m being weird about this. Have any of you been in a similar situation?

>>1533429Used to hate celery as a kid but everyone around me was always eating it (even without dressing) and kept saying it tasted good, and as a kid it didn't occur to me that I could just… not like certain foods, so I just kept eating some whenever I had the chance until I liked it kek. Actually, like is a strong word, I'd say it's somewhere in between "tolerate" and "like" because I willing go and grab some if it's available to eat, but I would say it's far from something I really like. In adulthood, the same thing has happened with olives. I don't pick them out of my food anymore but I don't mind their taste and what they add to the overall flavor of whatever I'm eating. Would probably not eat them by themselves.
Used to loathe bitter melon as a kid but sometime last year my mom cooked some (as she usually does) and the taste was exactly the same but my brain suddenly liked it. Even with the slight bitter taste, I really liked it. I'd say this is the only food that I've gone from "completely hate" to "completely love."
I don't think there's anything I've loved that I now hate. Usually it's just stuff I overeat in massive amounts and have to avoid for a few years. The taste won't bother me but when I put it in my mouth I'll just want to spit it out (currently it's those danish butter cookies in the blue tin- ate way too many of those fuckers a few years back kek).

I'm looking for an episode of Tom and Jerry where the maid sings "No rest for the wicked". The lyrics just before that were something like "Workin', workin', stop that shirkin'…". Please help me with this, it's plaguing my mind
