I'm sure it's been said on here many times before, but it's so sad to see a post on here and think that maybe that nonny and I would make great friends. It's not fair how moids can be as degen as they want, wherever they want, without a care in the world, and can easily find others like them, but being a weird and thought-criminal / scrote-hating woman just results in loneliness.

Feeling so shite after wishing my aunt a happy birthday. I see in our text threads the last birthday text from last year. I can't even give her a call I'm too pathetic, I always mean to do better, to send a card and drawing every year for my family but never end up doing it. It's always some personal life tragedy happening and I deal with life so badly. I work 7 days in a row have two days left before a day off, while my "nigel" and I nearly breaking up during this time too, I couldn't make a card happen. She sends me some pictures of ducklings she saw and has "love you and miss you…" at the end of her text, I'm about to sob. I feel like the worst niece in the world. At least this will motivate me I hope to send out drawings and letters but I feel so ashamed. I wish all my relatives didn't live in different states I miss them all so much.

>>2502507Nuclear families are the biggest psyop, raising children with your female relatives has got to be the most natural and ideal way to do it, even if it's just to minimize the risk of sex abuse and parental conflict.
I decided that I want to have a baby on my own because my sister had a baby and I get so much joy from being just with my parents and them, I realized a partner is totally optional for me. And in fact my biggest fears and concerns about having a child revolve around the father so it feels like a lifehack that I can exclude men from the process.

I blocked him without explanation and feel like the past two years and even the effort to keep him an acquaintance rather than cutting him off outright was a waste. I know it would be the inappropriate thing to do, so I didn’t do it, but I wish I told him he was a massive pussy before I blocked him.

I'm usually a moderately serious person, but when something bad happens to me, I always make a genuinely retarded joke about it. The jokes are never funny, but I do it anyway. I don't know what that psychological issue is, since I'm not a "joking" person in real life–or even online. I laugh at others' jokes, but I usually take things seriously, so I don't know where it's coming from. I was, by legal definitions, raped on Thursday and have been making jokes about it at my own expense and at his own behavior before it happened (because I am a petty bitch), but I'm still making rape jokes, which is fucked. I contacted three therapists on Friday and I'm hoping to get it resolved, but I hate having parts of myself that seem to have no logical sense (outside of "oowoo you're stressed"—please don't ban me, mods, I spelled it out instead). I don't really think about myself too much outside of what I need or want to do, and I feel like I have a good understanding of how I fit into what I do, so I hate having the more "mental" stuff. I wish I was a rock, or an ant, or something. I hate full consciousness. I am drunk and all of this is word vomit, so please forgive me.

When I was a teenager I was friends with a girl that was tough but really sweet, she was the type to always have your back and had no problem calling out bullshit. A real larger-than-life character in her own right. She wasn't faring very well at home (I don't know all the details, but one of the things was that the parents would "accidentally" lock her outside for hours on end, among other things. According to my mom it was pretty bad), so she was always talking about becoming famous so they would regret their treatment of her - no matter the price.
During the really early 2010's, when blogging was the big thing on the internet, she made a post on her facebook saying that she was going to do an experiment: she is going to create two blogs - one for her art (she's always been an amazing artist), and one where she's pretending to be this dumb bimbo, and she was going to see which one would be more successful. Of course, the latter one was the one that went super viral in our country. She was trolling the shit out of our country by playing this character and manufacturing scandals, she was on the news a lot and even ended up in a season of Big Brother.
After a couple of years she got tired of the whole charade, went completely mask-off in a final post on her blog about the truth, and silently deleted the blog a short while after. She was completely silent for a while, until she one day - completely out of the blue - wrote to me. Just simply checking in. We hadn't spoken in maybe 5 years at that point, but I was happy to hear from her. She was living in Berlin, focusing on her art and apparently mingling with a few celebrities. When I checked out a couple of the names she dropped I asked if she was fine hanging out with men that were so much older, even if they were celebrities, (we were roughly 24-25 at the time, and the men were in their 40's) she just made a couple of raunchy jokes and said it was fine because was "having fun and getting contacts", and I didn't question it; she had always been the headstrong and sexually liberated type that would make raunchy jokes every 15 minutes when we were teens, and I figured some people never change since she seemed to be doing well. But suddenly during the conversation she drops "I wonder if I had been happier if I had focused more on enjoying manga and going to conventions with you back in the day", which left my autistic head spinning - wasn't she fine? She sounded happy with her choices right before this? What prompted this? Everyone I know from the convention scene are currently involved with a bunch of drama right now, and I knew several women - including myself - that have gotten sexually abused by moids connected to the convention scenes, so it's not exactly sunshine and rainbows. Would she really have been happier? Would she have been smart enough to avoid trouble if she had gone with me? Where would she have been today? I had all these questions and mixed feelings, so I didn't know what to say so I left it unanswered. I figured that maybe if I gave it a couple of hours I could perhaps come back with a well-worded answer. But I never did.
But she has always been on my mind, and I've always felt bad for not returning to her about it. It's been almost 10 years or so since. But I decided a couple of weeks ago to check in on her socials for some reason, and I discovered that she has recently released a book… called "To all my pimps", and my heart fucking sunk when I read the synopsis. Her art wasn't doing so well in Berlin, and she ended up doing sex work. The timeframe fits perfectly with the time she wrote to me. It was a call for help and my self-absorbed ass didn't catch up on it. She wasn't on her way to "party" with those crusty moids, they were her johns.
I feel so fucking awful about it, and I want to reach out and apologise to her for not picking up on it. She deserves an apology for being left dry like that. But I don't know how to word it, and I don't know if I should buy and read her book before or after - but I feel like it's the least I can do. I know I couldn't have known, but I still feel like an awful person and my heart aches for what she must have gone through. Dear friend, I am so, so sorry for leaving you like I did. I should have asked more questions. I should have checked in more. I am so sorry for not picking up the signs.

>>2503120This has happened to me too, on here a lot of the time it's either being ignored, or getting replies with people just misunderstanding what I wrote because they're unintelligent and jump to conclusions, or just them being shitty towards me for no real reason. Sometimes there are still good replies in there, but still. For people I know personally I've been ghosted as well, I used to think it was all my fault and I must be a huge offputting sperg for them to be doing this, but even after actively changing my behavior, improving my looks, becoming more self aware, observing others to make sure I don't bother anyone, making my messages easy to reply to, not messaging them first, not that much actually changed. Which led me to believe it isn't actually about what I do and my actions as much as it is about other people and how they react to me. I could spend my time trying to make myself palleteable to others and it still wouldn't be good enough for everyone because on a whim they can just decide to ignore me or not feel like replying to me at all for their own reasons. Plus a lot of them didn't just ignore me specifically, they did this with other people too, so I just stopped seeing it as my fault. Lots of people are just assholes or simply don't care that much about online interactions, and I've been told as much by a few when I actually asked. They would always excuse themselves by saying this is just how they are even if they like me. So it's not necessarily about you everytime this happens, as much as it can feel that way after experiencing this multiple times. I thought I also didn't deserve friends and that something must be inherently wrong with me but even when people actively like me more than I do them they would still do this shit or simply treat me worse than I treated them. You can't teach people basic decency and manners and a lot of them will just treat you poorly because that's all they know how to do and their standards for interactions are low, especially online. They'll see your message and not even hate you but still not really reply to you out of laziness for example. I even had this happen when the other person was the one who initiated talking first, they would message me then leave me on read once I replied to what they said, even though my reply was totally normal and short. It made me stop really initiating interactions over time and engaging less when people talk to me because I was so sick of getting ignored or misunderstood by others when I did put effort into replying. And at this point, I pretty much see it in the opposite way, it's not that I'm uniquely terrible and that I don't deserve friends, it's that others aren't usually good enough for me and I've been really unlucky when it comes to making friends. Too many people are lazy, bad at communication, stupid, avoidant, and just generally shitty.

This stupid brand came out with vagina masks and it irritates me to no end. They promote it as something to rebuild your flora, to use after sports to freshen up , for menopausal women, after menstruations or after sex.
You have to wear this stuff over your underwear for twenty minutes. There’s already a bidet for that and the vagina self cleans already, what’s the point?!
I hate this clean wars on women, men can just let their stinky smegma balls marinate while women are told to always smell good , who cares if they risk their health anyway , because who knows if this stuff doesn’t actually fuck up your flora.

I mostly feel bad because I sense she might feel bad, but deep down I don't really get why it's worse to ask someone to do the dishes when it's their turn than to not do the dishes when it's your turn ; or worse to tell someone they are preventing you from sleeping than them not letting you sleep in the first place.

Fucking pissed… I just don't have enough freetime. I've got a baby so that eats up a lot of freetime.

My mother is visiting next weekend so that's a wash and immediately after we are flying out to visit my husband's sister for a week. I should be greatful to be surrounded by people but I don't really know my husband's sister. In fact my whole husband's family is kind of a huge chore and he booked an airbnb in a couple months to spend two weeks in a house with them… just between all this obligations there's nothing left for me. I literally don't have a minute in the day to myself. My parents are getting older too, and my dad is beginning to make ominous remarks about the cruelty of putting parents in nursing homes… he's been a good father too so it would be cruel. But between his frequent visits, my mother, my sister always wants to hang out, my baby, and now my husband wants another baby, ideally I would want two but the first baby isn't even at an idependant stage. There's NOTHING, I don't have freetime. I haven't played video games in years. I think about when I was a teen and during weekends sometimes I would wake up, spend an entire day watching movies and playing video games, then go to bed and wake up and do it again. I thought i would have more freedom as an adult since I would have money and wouldn't have schoolwork but I was really wrong. Between groceries, housechores, family, baby, there's nothing left and I feel like I am grappling for an identity because it's been so long since I had anything to myself. Its difficult. I just want space. I am in my physical prime but I am just buried under obligations to others. I don't even really have friends because I don't have time to meet anyone. I don't know what to do there's no room to make space.

>>2503595>“hey do you mind doing those today since I washed them last time? I’m worried about roaches” or with the ice cream you could just ask her to save some for you instead. Maybe I worded myself wrong because that's kind of what I said.
Exactly I said :
"You didn't do the dishes?" (normal voice)
"No, I'm tiredddd"
"I get that, if we didn't have roaches I wouldn't ask you to but we do.." and I did thank her afterwards
for the ice cream I just told her in a joking manner not to eat it all trying to make fun of how huge her spoonfuls were
Maybe now I sound like I'm freaking out about nothing. Maybe I'm just not used to resolving conflict with friends (it's like my 3rd trip without my family and I'm usually the one being pushed to do stuff) so just that felt like I was being a hard ass.
Maybe the sleeping situation couldve been handled better, like "could you move less please?" but to be honest there's no way to ask that doesn't sound snappy. Maybe I shouldve just left and slept on the couch but that felt kind of cucked to me, like why should I leave whe' shes the one moving.
Sorry for sperging so much about this, I'm just trying to learn how I could navigate these situations better. Idk if my lack of comunication and compromise skills ruined the trip or not, I wouldn't want that to happen again.

Oh, I am so fucking lonely! I am alone! I have no one to talk to nor turn to! Oh, woe is fucking me over right now! I've been dealing with some heavy things lately, and I'd kill for someone to talk to about it, but the thing is I'm not gonna go and meet new people with the intent of eventually venting to them. I'm a pretty private person and it takes me a bit to crack at those walls around someone. I've lost a lot of my most meaningful friendships to inevitable "we're going out of state for college" time and distance, so the people I'm closest with now are all pretty new friends. I'm not gonna dump my years-long childhood trauma fucking with your adult life mess on them. Posting my problems anonymously sounds comforting in the short-term, but nothing's gonna cure loneliness better than having a trusted friend who knows all of your most complicated shit and just… existing in your general vicinity, as your friend, who knows your shit. Woe is me. I'm lonely. I'm gonna go buy a chocolate.

He will tell me why he loves me, and that every normal person has faults, and its not my fault. But I know for a fucking fact this is lies, but he will not tell me. I have tried carving connections with every type of person you can imagine, normie women, leftist women who preach equality, autistic women, very autistic women,
femcel women, pick me women, every single one has hated me even if they will not admit it. My """Best friend""" of 15 years ghosted me when my cat, who is my rock and I will die without him (that is not an exaggeration) almost died of a urinary blockage (if any of you have cats you'll know how traumatic that is for everyone involved) then walked back into my life 3 years later saying she just had "mental health issues" while still maintaining friendships wtih every other friend she has, even the one that she did nothing but bad talk about to me. I have tried it all, I am literally meant to be outcasted from society, I can't fix it and i will never even understand what it is I'm doing wrong. If I just had family I woudl still be happy, if I can't have family I would be happy to have SOME type of connections that don't involve letting a male cum inside me, but I must live without either.

I like love on the spectrum but I’m legitimately jealous of some of the speds on there. Madison especially. Her family is filthy fucking rich and just so accepting or their retarded daughter. There’s no way she makes enough money to support herself with her little craft jobby, I doubt she even makes enough to buy more supplies. Her apartment is minimum $1600 a month, like bare fucking minimum, probably more around $2k+. Sounds like she was just allowed to be a fucking goblin and never was shamed or made to feel like any sort of a burden. It’s almost like loving accepting family can make all the difference, add in them being extremely wealthy and voila, you get a happy well adjusted individual. I’m really jealous of anyone with a rich generous family. My life could not be that much worse tbh. It’s only just barely acceptable enough that I haven’t killed myself, and even that’s a monthly struggle. If it was worse or if it gets worse I’ll definitely off myself. I’m able to escape most of the time because movies, tv, video games, and sleep exist. When I vent here on LC I’m mostly disconnected from my vent. I cant think too hard about my life cause I just sob at how good it could have been. The first episode of the new season of Black Mirror, Common People, hit way too close to home for me.

It's not talked about enough how when you gain weight your clothes don't fit anymore. It seems so obvious, but when I say "I have nothing to wear" I mean it. I can't dress up, I can't look professional for work, a heatwave rolls around and suddenly I do not have any summer clothes to wear, and in winter I'm freezing because my jacket won't close anymore. I can basically wear whatever oversized baggy clothes I already owned and look sloppy as fuck. I can't afford to replace my entire wardrobe either unless maybe I buy the cheapest shein slop. And I didn't gain THAT much, I slowly gained like 15kg, or 33lbs. Don't get me wrong it's still quite a bit, but I didn't even go up to obese and am "just" in the overweight bracket now.
I keep thinking "I'll just eat less and I'll be fine again" but it feels like everyone around is sabotaging me, maybe they even want me to gain more? Telling friends and family "I want to lose weight", "I need to watch what I eat" just seems to trigger them to encourage me to come out and eat MORE with them like the past year they've all been a "treat yo'self"-stereotype buying me all sorts of treats out of the blue. So in the end my weight kept creeping up more instead…
