>>583169I know what you mean anon, but none of it is real you know? It's the kind of thing you just have to cut off. If it's tied to your acc maybe you'll be able to redownload it in a few years when you're more financially stable.
or, the next time you feel the urge to spend $2 or $5 or however much on your game, think about what you could use that money for - towards rent, internet, maybe a snack, something tangible.
i know addiction like this is hard, but i believe in you.
have you also considered trying to find the cracked version of the game, so you can just play normally instead of spending money? if it's an otome for example, there's lots of those online iirc. Just be careful not to download anything shady. what kind of games are they?

So, my ex had made that acc to circumvent the block and tried to sneak into my dms for the second time. It was called something with Jon Snow (barf) and he asked me how it was going and sent cutesy emojis….. (barf)
I removed him twice from my followers, then blocked him again and privated my acc again.
Since he has a past of stalking exes (had a stalking app on an ex's phone, was controlling, jealous and obsessive), I felt uncomfortable especially since he knows my address.
I realised since he is a manipulative spineless little bitch and a brainlet with brainrot, I just need to come off strong to nip his obsession in the butt. He needs to know that I detest him and that I will fight tooth and nail for my freedom if he gets ideas about stalking me. Since he is a weak little bitch and I'm way tougher and smarter, this is an easy job. When he provoked me into breaking up, I insulted him like three times and he was seriously upset LOL
So, I sent him a text message tonight (he has no money for his phone, so he couldn't respond if he tried).
It went like this:
Hi,
I don't wanna talk to you. I'd have unblocked you if I did. Don't try to circumvent the block. I don't wanna talk to you today or tomorrow or in a year or in ten years. I wanna die someday as peaceful as possible without having talked to you again. If you try to contact me and circumvent the block again until X date I will spill on our drug test fraud (I'm a retarded bitch and helped him cheat a drug test at the hospital). I only found your number in the first place because it shows up in my blocked contacts.
Don't try to contact me again.
No hard feelings.

>>583171Thank you for replying to me and helping me to not feel like such a loser :(
They’re pretty standard games like animal crossing pocket camp, klondike, and EverMerge. I usually allow myself to spend monthly on pocket camp (around $30 usually, but I’ve binged and spent more than that if there were in game items I wanted that month, bc theres exclusive limited time gachas and furniture and stuff), I don’t spend any money on evermerge and it’s the game I can control myself with most, but the Klondike game is becoming a huge issue. I’ve downloaded it recently and it’s one of those games that’s super slow to progress through without spending money on “energy” and the wait time to craft things makes it hard for me to be satisfied with the amount of progress I can make in a sitting. That’s the one I spent so much on last night, and last nights purchases weren’t even my only ones since getting the app :( theres also a word game that allows you to renovate houses and stuff, and I’ve spent a lot on that just to get furniture that I like. All of this isn’t real or necessary but since it helps my anxiety and allows me to escape, I keep doing it

>>583178You're not a loser at all! The fact that you even posted about your problem here means that there's at least some part of you that's brave enough to acknowledge your problem and want to change. So that's the first step. But you have to actively work on the issue. Are you in therapy for your anxiety? (The games are a crutch and provide instant gratification, but I'm sure you understand that. They won't help the root of the issue.)
Try baby steps.
1. Delete the game that's your biggest money sink. Sounds like it's that Klondike game or that furniture game.
2. If you really think you can't let go of the games right now, research cracked apks online but be mindful.
3. Start a budget spreadsheet if you haven't. You have to be brutally honest with this. Every time you spend money on a game, add to the spreadsheet and check at the end of week/month. When you have real numbers in front of you, it can help you stop spending as much. But you have to make sure you log every expense, even if it's only 99c or what have you.

I did a hate crime last night apparently and woke up to this. No matter that it was on a post calling for violence towards women, amongst comments calling all women sluts and whores, saying women need to learn to cook or they're failures as women.
I know I'd heard of this happening on Facebook, and I guess i shouldn't be surprised since insta is owned by them. It's just fucking pathetic. Imagine if men had to take the abuse women did daily? I'm so sick of men I don't want to interact with them at all anymore.
You literally cant say anything to men without them getting emotional. If you bring up the high crime statistics they just chimp out. They won't even recognize men have a problem as a whole, they're sure as fuck not going to band together and start fixing it.
And the worst thing is I keep seeing dumb ass comments on other sites I visit saying shit like this is a white man's problem which is just as fucking bad. Like black/asian/latino women aren't getting the same treatment from men in their communities. There was a post a few days ago saying misogny and sexism DIDN'T EXIST until white men introduced it to native Americans/aboriginals in Australia.They said before white people these communities worshipped women lmao. So it's not like we can even tackle it from a liberal stand point.
Fuck me. I just don't care anymore. They are useless.

>>583178Oh anon I know that feel so well. I was a whale on a game a few years ago. Outrageous amounts of money that make me cringe and feel sick just thinking about it now. Be better then me, stop spending on them.
The only reason I stopped was because the app went under and was deleted. I lost everything I spent a lot to acquire in seconds! I have absolutely nothing to show for it.
My best suggestion is to delete the games. If it’s so easy to lose everything by that simple act alone it’s going to happen regardless. A lot of anons have good advice for taking baby steps. But remember: non of its real, the second they delete the app off the store, the second you can’t update your phone high enough or something technical goes wrong, everything’s gone anyway.
Another idea might be to invest in an actual game system. There are games with the same kind of vibe that don’t require further purchases once you have the game. Animal Crossing New horizons comes to mind. Save for a switch system or purchase older sim games for your computer if you have one.
Cracked game apps are also an option. I wish I could point you to a community for such a thing but most of the games with in app purchases I play these days don’t really require the purchases to complete the game, they’re just for aesthetics.
In the meantime maybe you need to set a hard limit? Can you make privacy cards? I believe they allow you to set a limit of what can come out in a certain time frame. Also print off your bank statements and confront yourself with how much you’ve spent. Was it worth it? Could that money have been used for something else you needed or heck, something else you really wanted?
Good luck anon.

After stressing about it for a while,I managed to tell my father I'm going on vacation on my own.Considering his unpredictable temper,this was an extremely difficult thing to do,yet his response was pretty calm compared to what I expected which annoys me because I never know what to fucking expect
The reason I go on vacation alone is due to the fact I'm tired of everyone around me and I truly need some piece of mind to thing about my life clearly.My father doesn't realise how negatively he affects my family,I and even himself with his behaviour. He keeps complaining about getting sick and dying, yet I'm the one who has ended up in the hospital due to physically manifested anxiety.I have tried explaining it to him,but he is very difficult to talk to and twists the conversations or gives up on them and leaves so there's no rational way to solve family problems.
This travel is a big step for me as I was even afraid to use busses in the past,but lately I had been so tired of this situation feeling sick again that I can't handle more "family" time anymore.I had been feeling continiously ill,tired,stressed,had no appetite,suicidal and all of that nice shit and my father keeps having no idea it's mostly due to him.He can't accept it.He keeps saying he wants me to become independent,but doesn't want me to let me go and keep doing things for him.I'm pretty fucking sure he will lowkey start trash talking about me/my decision,since it affects our work life too.
Oh it would be so easy if he only used his ears and some compassion.But he can't so I gotta look like a shithead doing stunts like this

>>583197I’m native Latina and it’s been prevalent in history that the men “owned” us so to speak, and especially in modern history and Latino culture, the men are way more sexist than white men can ever dream. Since I’m indigenous Latina and not indigenous North American, I can’t say how modern history treats its women but I don’t hear very good things. My best friend is also a black girl and she hates black men because of how they treat black women, and any time on black twitter you will see that many black women share this sentiment. Asian culture may have some of the worst sexism and gender disparity, rivaling laities culture, and I think it has something to do with both cultures being rooted in traditional virtues. I have no idea why the wokies only speak out against white men when it’s not just white men, it’s all men. They talk about how good white women have it compared to men of color, when men of color are as violent and horrible toward women as white men are, ive actually experienced better treatment from white men than any man of color that I’ve dated. Not marginally better, because they’re still men, but American culture kind of cultivated a sentiment in white men where they know they can’t be extremely vocal about how much they hate women anymore. Men of color will say they own their women and want to keep them and, when criticized for it, say it’s their culture and it’s racist to speak out against tradition. It’s all a load of shit.

>>583182>>583200I was thinking about some baby steps in that I shouldn’t play games while on adderall because I will hyper focus on them and try to sink hours into playing them, and when I can’t progress…..spending money lol, and then giving myself a monthly allowance to start out with before lessening they amount until I wean off. Unless it’s better just to do it cold turkey?
The last part about budgeting is so useful, I’ve been meaning to track all my budget things. I haven’t been going without paying my share of rent and credit building, but other than that I don’t spend a lot of my money. I’m a chronic saver, but because of the corona virus, I’ve had to dig way into my savings without recovering so I really can’t afford the addiction anymore, especially if it gets any worse. Last night was the worst night so far and I never thought I would spend that much in one sitting. Usually I can justify the transactions because they’re small amounts, like $5 or $10 daily or weekly, or the $30 for pocket camp. But uncontrollably binging and spending $100 just like that was a new low….
I also started playing pocket camp because I couldn’t afford the switch, but I’ve realized I’ve now probably spent enough on that game for two or more switches, it’s embarrassing and regretful to think about…..
I have a playstation with games but after final fantasy 7 remake, I’ve had no desire for “real” gaming, because video games can be stressful and these app games are so easy and mindless.
Hearing stories about people becoming addicted to micro transaction spending though is so scary, I’m going to try to not become like that. I need to stop spending all my time and savings on these games and grow up a little to at least accomplish some work! Thank you guys for talking to me and sharing your advice and encouragement, I’m going to try to kick this!

I've had symptoms of being prediabetic since I was about 12 (always thirsty and hungry, lethargic, always need to pee, skin wounds heal slowly, etc) and I found out yesterday from an oral glucose tolerance test that I'm just over the border of being prediabetic. im 20.
how did my grandma decide to "celebrate" this? she brought me a whole ass giant bag full of premade sugary pastries from the grocery store, and she got offended when i said i wouldnt eat them. i know she was trying to be nice and im aware that im quite bitchy and spoiled, but it just really fucks me off that im on the way to being a type 2 diabetic if i dont change my habits and she decides to "celebrate" this by trying to get me to eat the shit that got me into this in the first place.
i know im responsible for my health since im an adult, and by this point its mostly my fault for not looking after my health properly, but when i was a kid my grandma and some of my other older family members used to do shit like sneak me mountains of sweets and pastries when my parents werent looking and i even had an aunty who used to feed me sugar with a table spoon pretty much every day for some reason. and like i said, ive had the symptoms since i was about 12, and yet shes still not alarmed and trying to get me to eat mountains upon mountains of sweets.

>>583204Thank you for your input. You're right, it's an issue across all men, it doesn't matter the culture. The culture is usually formed around misogyny in part, though, because every culture has misogny engrained into it to an extent.
I've heard from a lot of asian/black women that men can violent with them for dating white men because they think they're entitled to women from their own community. There's an entire subreddit run by asian men for the sole purpose of shitting over asian women dating white men and calling them traitors.

was ana chan for three years. currently on the early stages of obesity. i think i might have a thyroid problem because ive literally been gaining like 5 kg in a month… no joke… I dont know whats happening. I track my calories. I do cardio. Things i used to do while ana chaning but now im trying to do them for health reasons. and i suck at it. i know it must be that im undercounting or something. but it still sucks. cause i keep trying and trying and failing. just keep gaining and gaining like crazy. i remember when i was skinny and pretty and my ex would literally brag about dating me on social media. currently so fat, and current partner goes "well, you have a gorgeous face yknow. some people are ugly and no matter how much they lose theyll still be ugly. your face is pretty so your weight doesnt matter". they promise they dont mind but i fucking mind. im losing my mind. i dont want to go back to my ana chan ways but doing this the "healthy way" is not working cause im clearly undercounting or something cause im so damn stupid.
theyre going to put me on lithium too soon so… more weight gain probably. im losing my mind… im so unhappy… i keep having nightmares and so much stress from this. none of my clothes fit. ive never felt so ugly in my entire life. and its all my fault. and it fucking hurt anons, thats the issue, that i know its me, and it hurts
i just see old pics of myself, healthy weight, anachan, overweight, and it all seems fine compared to know and i cry. but, even though i feel like im eating less and exercising more, weeks go by and nope… not trying hard enough…

>>583234If you’re in your early 20s thats what was happening to me. You can overcome it with medication, diet and exercise! You’ll be ok if that’s what it is, sometimes our bodies just need a kick in the ass and medical intervention. If there are known thyroid issues in your family I highly recommend checking your thyroid (all numbers including T4) every year until they take you seriously. It took me 10yrs to find a doctor who actually checked the right numbers and surprise it was really bad.
This may not be what’s happening to you but if you know what you’re eating and you are exercising there is clearly something else going on. Look into hashimotos and thyroid issues and see what people recommend getting checked because I remember being 20 and just ballooning and being unable to stay awake. It was terrible! Good luck and hang in there, try not to punish yourself about something that sounds likely to be out of your control.

I guess I just can't play the social media game. I'm an artist and since I lost my irl job due to covid, I've been thinking about how I really wish i could take online commission work. Over the years I've tried to open social media accounts for my art and have only been met with failure. The only account I was able to break 20 followers (yes, twenty) was an instagram account that got permanently shadowbanned for reasons I was never able to figure out. I guess maybe I was using too many repetitive hashtags? My facebook also got locked for being a suspected bot and won't let me in unless i upload a state ID (lolno)
I opened a new instagram a few weeks ago and have been unable to get a single like on any post. It depresses me so much because I try so hard and I see so many people who are able to make livings doing this with less skills than me. What in the god damn am i missing?
I'm not trying to humblebrag, but I know that I'm a pretty decent artist, so the quality can't be the issue. pic attached is just an unfinished underpainting I did like a year ago that fits the mood. Am I being delusional about my skills? I feel like im going insane I'm honestly so close to kms

>>583417You're very good but social media is exactly that - social. Tagging your art is good to get it out there, but you also have to go that extra mile and interact with audiences. the art tags on insta move quickly, refreshing them after ten seconds will give you a whole new feed to scroll through. If you want to stand out, you have to do more.
IRL, you can be an absolutely amazing artist but it's still networking and business savvy that gets you in galleries and gets you money, despite what people may tell you about it being all about the art and creativity.
Your new instagram is going to work for you. Use about six tags on each post - half general and popular like #art and half sorta specific like #digitalartist. Change up the tags you use on each post. Like and follow other artists, especially smaller ones that will reciprocate support. Comment on posts, react to stories and DM people sincere messages about mutual interests and genuine admiration. Instagram doesn't order posts chronologically, it goes by interaction. You have to interact to stay in a feed. Change up the time of day you post to find out which days/times offer the biggest audience with the smallest competition. Post regularly, at least once a week. Caption your pictures something that shows you're talented and professional - for example, don't post anything like "I don't like this piece but here you go" as some artist do. Instead caption it with something like "learned so much from this piece".
Selling art also requires you to sell yourself. There's a reason great products still have marketing departments.

I realize that in my first post I made it sound like she was stealing from another customers cart but we use different carts for online order fulfillment, and there was no signage or anything that said not to touch it, she thought it was just merchandise she could buy like anything else. if she had any situational awareness she would have realized it was obviously not for sale but it still didn't warrant my tone. she immediately said "oh sorry sorry" really quietly and put it down.

>>583500As the daughter of immigrants (like brown immigrants from a "third world shithole"), I can see why people get scared and turn into racists. Not saying it is okay but it is an easy rabbit hole to fall into.
The countries we come from are not the best places and that is why we fled them. There are so many reasons why disrupted communities have many issues and it is not as simple as painting us snowflakes who can do no harm as some liberals do. We need actual solutions but the next best thing isn't scapegoating us to hell and back.
I can't say whether or not you will get out of that pipeline, it's up to you. Most racists I have met are sheltered in a way, they don't have productive conversations nor do they really know anyone belonging to the people they hate/are scared of. If you don't want to be racist then do something about it. Learn about the issues minority groups face in your country. Learn about the issues they tell you immigrants are ruining and often times you will find it is way more complex than that.
I doubt that you don't have peers or coworkers who are minorities, actually talk to us instead of listening to some weird-ass 4chan scrotes who probably won't even look a black guy in the eye lmao. I don't mean tokenize your friends to justify why you're not racist but actually try and see the world they see it. It goes both ways, don't be friends with people who don't respect you.

For the past month or so though, she wouldn't come speak to me, and when I went to speak to her she would hardly look at me or respond. I asked her what the issue is, and she flat out said that she doesn't want to speak to me anymore, and she doesn't know why. It makes me feel very bad, and I told her as much, and she asked that I not mention it again.
I don't really have a right to feel bad, considering I didn't like her all too much in the first place, and I only feel bad because of the lack of validation. Still sucks though. Thanks for listening.

They want your forgiveness so that they can move on. But you don't owe it to them, don't worry, let them seethe. I really hate shit like this, so I get where you're coming from.
You'll get people in your life telling you "oh you should forgive them/they're different now/be the bigger person" but honestly, fuck em. The people who love you will understand that those who legitimately hurt you don't deserve your attention, least of all your forgiveness.

>>583838I'm 29, there's dozens of us anon, dozens.
Maybe if you have 3 kids and a job you wouldn't have time for the intrnet but imo everyone has their own way of killing time online whether that's scrolling through a Facebook timeline, following instragram meme pages or reading reddit. If you think you're wasting too much time here then maybe look into other hobbies, it's well accepted that spending too much time here isn't good for you, but I don't see why any age is too old for a little shitposting whilst you wait for a lasagna to bake.
No. 583855
>>583846Of course I don't believe in that mentality. But the numbers speak for themselves in terms of showing how people are actually choosing to spend their time.
Your explanation doesn't really make sense. 4chan started in 2004 and was definitely a millennial thing. I thought there would be plenty of people in their 30s who have stuck around, but nope, the average age is still people in their early 20s. Of course there are oldfags that have stuck around but a lot of them have left. I'm trying to figure out where they left to.
The only site that seems to have consistently a high average age is Something Awful, but it's a shithole to use if you're not down with trannies. Forums and IRC seem to be dead or not open to new users, so it's not as if I could go there.
>>583847I guess what makes me unhappy right now is that it seemed really easy for other people to move on to another stage of their life, but I kinda feel stuck? Especially due to the coronavirus. Like what is so great about other people's lives they completely lost the need to shitpost? I guess it's fomo.
I also do use reddit a lot, though I don't post as much anymore (due to my main account being banned, kek). But now what bothers me is that there are so many teens using the site now that it's becoming worse to use, especially as I'm growing older. I can't tell if that's because a lot of the older users have left (to what, hacker news or ycombinator?) or if the site is growing in popularity.
And contrary to how I might be coming off, I have had a fairly active life that involved partying/traveling, but internet use was always an (excessive) part of it. Now that I've been stuck at home due to the coronavirus, I've been stressed and basically browsing online 24/7 at the expense of everything else. I thought this could be a good time to work on other stuff, I just feel really lost.
Another thing that makes me upset is that as I've been using this site for 6 years, I thought there would be plenty of people who would have stuck around for so long. It does make me upset that while I've been critical of this site, it turns out other people were way less attached and could move on easier than I ever would.

problematic by normies. Lolcow has a lot of 30+ farmers but they barely have the need to bring up their age.

>>583893My bf suggested for months that I see a therapist and on his pushing I finally went and already I've learned a lot of coping tools.
Stop thinking of it as "wasting an appointment". I used to think that way too until I actually sat down and talked to a professional and realized there were things that were fucked up in my brain that they could help me with. Your bf sounds like he at least wants you to feel better. What have you got to lose by going to a therapist? You could approach the first appointment by explaining that you feel like you're irredeemable and then go into why you feel that way. It may be cathartic to actually verbally say it in front of a professional (at least it was for me)
No. 583901
>>583893Honestly Anon therapy is good. Just go see a therapist and talk to them. Just talking to one isn't going to hurt anything. I waited going to see mine for a similarish reason (didn't think I was bad off enough to see one, just thought that's how I was. On top of a bad previous experience with mental health professionals) But now I'm seeing someone and it's working out well. All it takes is finding a therapist that clicks with you and understands.
Also let me clarify why I didn't go to a therapist for like two years after I previously tried to get help. The previous time was a shitshow and the therapist told me it seemed like I wanted to be coddled after I told her some of the techniques she had me doing to manage my anxiety weren't really working.
My newest therapist is really kind and laughed and told me that my previous therapist was full of shit when I told her what happened during that time period. So legit, just gotta find someone you feel comfortable with. If you don't like the one you see, ask for a different person.

I don't like admitting this but I have been having suicidal thoughts again after thinking I was pretty good. Shit with the world has been really getting to me and here I am trying to keep other's spirits up, but this past week or so I have been having an existential crisis. I had a Seventh Seal-tier meltdown Friday, thinking about all the shitty things that have happened in my life and wondering where the fuck god has been in all this.
And then today I had this autistic meltdown because I caught a glimpse of a WHO doomsday-ish headline and I started thinking, is anything worth it anymore? What point is there in living when other people have control and I have no say?
I regret everything. I regret not trying to do more and letting fear and other people hold me back from doing shit. I look back on my past and all the time I wasted fighting with assholes/toxic mofos and trying to be Joan of Arc and I wish I could slap myself in the face. Why was I so stupid? And now I don't know when I will ever be able to do anything I want to do. I feel like all my dreams were a lie and that maybe the darkness I see when I close my eyes at night is the fact that there is nothing. That there is no future. And it scares me.
I wish I could turn back time one year and do one thing right that I always wanted to do, like move to Europe, write a book, or whatever. Just anything that I said I would do but didn't. If I put as much passion and energy as I do into being angry and fighting intellectual battles with my enemies, I could have done something else and been more productive. But instead I haven't done anything and I am so ashamed of my own ineptitude. I am really, really fucking dumb sometimes and I wish I knew how to walk away from toxic people instead of letting them hurt me and draw me into their bullshit. And my family believes in me and it makes me even more ashamed because they're all really well accomplished and I am just this bumbling ball of angst and fire who more enemies than friends, a dismal bank account, and nothing to show for it. Fuck.

Recently I've been trying to post my art on social media, initially it didn't bother me that I had no following, but now it's getting to me. I see so many good artists, compare myself to them and feel like what I do is so disposable . I know drawing is something I genuinely love doing , regardeless of external approval, and I'm not bad at it, but now I feel like it's such pointless thing for me to show my stuff. To me, finding new artists I like is such a joy, I love seeing people's creations and expressions, I guess part of me wants to be able to give someone this experience too, but now I'm just feeling worthless.
I feel bad even posting this here lol, like I am taking some space that I shouldn't.

My boyfriend doesn't do enough for our relationship when it comes to dating.
I know he loves me a lot, and his love seems to be growing more and more, and I love him too, and he's very gentle, kind and patient.
But there's nothing outside of that. I feel like if I spent a whole month never telling him "Ok next date we should go to x" he would simply never notice and be ok just staying at home. I asked if he'd be down to go somewhere cute this week but I'm tempted to say nothing about it and see how long it takes him to realize.
He's like that with his friends too. Whenever he does go out it's always "X wanted to go so I went". His own plans never work out unless someone else takes the reigns.
Staying at home is fine, I don't need to be outside all the time, but he doesn't cook, and is shit at planning. He also doesn't clean his place even though he knows I like to come over to play video games from time to time.
He doesn't shave unless I tell him to, and a lot of the time he shaves poorly, even though he knows his beard isn't worth keeping (he's self conscious about it) and I like clean shaved men.
I feel like an asshole for saying this, but he got me a sorta pricey (for our respective budgets) but very practical birthday present and at first I was simply happy to have it and I use it often. But looking at all those times he has failed to properly date me, I feel disappointed that he didn't wrap it in gift wrap, didn't write me at least a little card, didn't get me a couple of flowers… I normally wouldn't care but it's just that everything combined, it's more like I'm trying to "win him over" like someone in love would and he just follows along.
Sorry for long vent. I ignored it for the past couple of months pretending I wasn't the only one doing things for him/us but the realization hit me.

I just cannot deal with my mother. I have never liked her and do not really have too many fond memories with her, even though I really do try to see the good in her. She's a religious narcissist who has always belittled me and then expects me to fawn over her. She is a violent and jealous person who did have to deal with some tough things during her life, but why does she think that gives her the right to always treat me badly? Ever since I was a child, her and my father have convinced me that I am inherently bad and that my nature is evil (I love my siblings, boyfriends and even my parents very much and I don't think I am evil but IDEK). The other day I overheard her on the phone talking about me, calling me a bad, bitter, ungrateful person to my sister (who defended me) but at that moment, I just lost hope. She expects me to call her everyday but she is just a bored housewife who doesn't even look after her kids- she literally has a maid. Her life consists of watching gossip channels on youtube, cooking a couple times a week and hating the way her life turned out (even though my dad would buy her pretty much anything she wants within reason). I just landed a new job and got a 2:1 in a respectable degree, and all she could say is "Well done. Well, now you're in the real world! Let me tell you, it's not nice!". She's even secretly spoken to my sister and told her she think's I got the job based on my looks and because the hiring manager is a creep. She acts like she does and says these things out of concern, but I can so clearly see it's her way of slyly belittling me. I am just getting so tired of her mean, controlling ways. I don't know if this is normal or not? Does anyone else deal with a mother like this? If so, how?

>>584075I see what you're saying anon, and honestly I get nothing out of our friendship that I think I would barely care if she just stops talking to me at all. it's her birthday this month and I'll be going to her home and give her a thoughtful gift I prepared a while ago and then I'll just become increasingly less available. I'm just tired of being a dumping ground for her. I know she gives no fucks about me because she has many more friends. But I cannot muster up enough courage to have a conversation about this because I am really uncomfortable with talking about myself now because I never do it so it feels weird.
>>584077>>584074I honestly think I'd be better off alone than keep this up for more years to come. Whenever she has messaged me, it has been to talk about her. I'm fine being alone because I don't feel any less lonely with her being here so it makes no difference. I will try discord.

I bought one of my friends who I met through graduate studies years ago a customized birthday present. She seemed genuinely sad on her social media for mental health and ED reasons so I thought a surprise might cheer her up. Since purchasing the gift, while it's in transit, she keeps attacking Rowling for transphobia on facebook and it makes me cringe how she wouldn't be nice to me if she knew I agreed with her. She should have excellent reading comprehension, so she must be purposefully misinterpreting Rowling, but it doesn't even make sense because I've never seen her with trans friends. She's upsetting herself and I think it's very silly when it appears she doesn't have a dog in the race other than to virtue signal.
Unrelated but I hate it when men are in niche hobbies and try to lord their experience over everyone.
I posted in a wild foraging group after finding a plant that looked edible but smelled funny, so I just asked for the identification and if it was edible. It's a highly active group, I gave up after scrolling through about a hundred pics and didn't find it. Hundreds of pics are posted a day and my keyword search didn't help so it was easier to ask.
Straight away an experienced dude identified and confirmed it was not edible. Okay, thank you!
Then this second lady had to chime in with the same identification and joked that the plant smelled like cat pee. Hah. Alright. Thanks! Then some jerk replies to her and was all "AND STILL PEOPLE ASK IF IT IS EDIBLE HERE LOL." Fuck you dude, this group posts edible shit that's colored red, bleeds indigo, and basically looks and smells like something you shouldn't fucking eat. Yeah I'm gonna ask questions because I'm learning! Fucking a.

Sounds like you guys bought a non refundable ticket, canceled due to transit permit reasons and therefore only got some tax refund. It's weird though cause most airlines are a bit more lax with rescheduling because of all this covid mess. What airline have you bought the ticket with?

Everything is a womans fault. Even when discussing men and how they fuck up, it's suddenly about the fact 53% of women that voted, voted for Trump. No matter more men voted for him, no matter they're discussing a man, no matter more men than women are breaking COVID rules, OF COURSE it's actually the fault of women for "stanning" him. If those dumb bitches didn't enable this fully grown male things would be fine. And you can't call out the outright misogny without getting shit, of course.
I need to take a big step back from leftist spaces because they're just 99% identity politics. No one talks about the shit that matters.

i think my bf is going to break up with me soon. even if he comes back, he'll break up with me once i move away in a month and a half.
this is my first relationship and i did so many things for him hoping he'll eventually return it. early on he even admitted he should and that he would learn to be more thoughtful. i was being very patient as he's not naturally inclined to plan and be thoughtful. i do believe that he loves me more than anything, but he revealed that me moving away soon makes it hard for him to give his all in the relationship.
it hurts so fucking bad. it's like he was just chilling, accepting my unconditional love and attention for months, while knowing he would never make it up to me before our relationship eventually explodes due to distance (according to him).
he swears it's not like that and that he doesn't want to break up but he keeps flip flopping between "it's who i am", "i should but i can't" and "we have different expectations". how am i supposed to believe that he doesn't want to give up on us when he sees no future for us and thinks he inherently cannot meet the basic requirements for a boyfriend?
i wish i could be all bad-bitch "THERE ARE TONS OF OTHER SINGLE MEN/WOMEN OUT THERE READY TO SPOIL ME ANYWAY!!! I DON'T EVEN NEED HIM" and say fuck it but i'm a retard who can't have sex so every relationship is bound to implode when the other person realizes they can't spend an indefinite amount of time with someone who never reciprocates any sexual feelings.
i feel like shit looking at the past, i feel like shit being in the present and i feel like shit thinking about the future. shoot me

>>584647That sucks, but it seems he is not the right person for you. You want your romantic life to be a solved problem so you are putting your expectations on him to be the one.
Don't worry, it will hurt for a while but you will find someone else. Don't ever be with someone that loves you less than you love them. It's a recipe for humiliation and disaster.

>>584649i knew he wouldn't be The One because we have different life paths but i thought we could have something special for as long as it could last.
it double sucks because until a couple of years ago, i stopped myself from living because i couldn't deal with the fact that everything eventually comes to an end. i thought there was no point building human relationships when i was supposed to move away in a semester, a year, two years. (i'm often between continents since starting university)
while i was abroad for a year i learned that if you give your all for even just 5 months, those 5 months will be forever valuable to you and there's nothing that can replace that. a relationship wasn't a failure just because it didn't last 5 years.
ut now i'm met with my old mindset in the form of a different person. was i suppose to treat him like a pet i use for cuddles while watching netflix and nothing else?
maybe you're right. it just wasn't meant to be. but i wish he would have simply broken up with me instead of accepting all my love and time knowing he wouldn't do more than the very bare minimum.
sorry for rant it just went downhill so fast yesterday lmao.

I hung out with a group of frens for years in my early twenties. We used to hang out once or twice a week and go watch movies, watch comedy stuff on youtube, go out to eat, do activities like bowling, etc. It was pretty normie tier stuff, it was all good.
Around two to three years ago though, they started changing to be more and more on the computer and doing less outside. They wanted to do less and less, not go to movies, we didn't really play boardgames anymore. It literally involved me meeting up with them and them being content to continue play computah, even the simple walk to the shop became rare.
Tbh I'm kinda hurt because it was the most comfy time of my life with them. I don't know if they're sick of me or they just hang out with new people. But I have a feeling they don't, they don't play board games anymore, they don't watch movies, they don't seem to go out and do things. They even appear to be seeing each other less and less.
Am I wrong in feeling frustrated with how they live their life and with how I'm judging them? I just wanted better for them than to remain playing the same games everyday after work, I feel bad because they're smart and capable men and they're going to be that way their entire lives, literally regressing into soy shit.

My mother is so disgusting. There's this disgusting smell coming from her, it's all sour and nasty and whenever she's around I hold my breath and hope that she'll quickly leave me alone. She doesn't wear any underwear, pees and takes a shit with the bathroom door open (despite everyone literally yelling at her for so many years now to close it but she gets mad every time someone tells her to), walks around with her tits out in front of everyone (and sometimes even half naked), doesn't take a shower when she needs to and then has the GUTS to get mad at everyone in the family who dares to criticize her and then starts legit screeching (not screaming, she seriously screeches) over how we are disrespecting her and don't know how to treat our precious mother right, and then runs to my father and starts telling him about how we attacked her again for the nth time today (even though she is always the one who starts the fights). Go take a shower you disgusting smelly fuck, it's not that deep. Us telling you to take a shower has nothing to do with being a bunch of "disrespectful children" or whatever the fuck you're deluding yourself into thinking. I swear I hate her so much. She's the perfect example of a mentally ill abusive mother. Throughout my entire life she's always been insisting on being right and you're wrong, literally fights with everyone everyday, always resorts to violence and insulting her children instead of acting like a normal parent, everyone is out to get her, everyone wants to attack her, everyone is jealous of her, they want to be her so bad, they want her life so bad,… yadda yadda. The only tolerable thing back then was that she changed her clothes regularly and took a shower. Now that's not even the case anymore, she changes her top but then wears the same sweatpants with no underwear that already smell so fucking bad. I want to lose my ability to smell.

Mine is a great actress from having a theater degree and being a teacher so she knows the right things to say and how to behave around the right people. Meanwhile behind closed doors her smug and high horse mask slips for an occasional screechout. Same shit with not being able to close the bathroom door and walking around naked. She fancied herself the center of the universe when I lived with her, yet also a selfless martyr whenever we had company.

Just found out a butch lesbian I used to know trooned out and now identifies as a man. I was not close to her, I only met her a few times (she was the girlfriend of a friend) but she was part of the group of lesbian and bi women in university who helped me figure out my bisexuality, we even went at the local pride and hung out near the lesbian float, it was awesome. I don't get it, she was super out and her parents supported her. I'm so upset, no matter what TRAs say, the troon epidemic is real (and I don't even live in the US).

Worst thign about my mom is that she made us grow up fat and malnourished (worst fucking combo and thanks I have the lowest self esteem ever) and thanks to my fucking aspergers and ED-like mind thinking I'm so fucking picky and stupid with food
Like tbh she might not be the worst parent ever but she was always so uncaring? Even though she basically says that isn't true
She never went to therapy even though she should had, like she just sleeps all day and always has to mention how tired she is
But worst thing ever is that she always always always only makes 1 single dish for us to eat ALL DAY like ok, she for example makes one piece of meat for me and my crazy ass brother (he's a legit diagnosed schizo) and calls it a day, like, that's all your meal for the day kek, not gonna bother doing more I guess
My ex always for some reason got mad at me for not knowing what eating a true meal is but can you blame me? sometimes we would only eat chips for lunch and that's it lmao kill me please
And then I figured out that a meal for normal families is like, one piece of meat, a serving of vegetables, and a serving of carbs, I literally just grew up eating one of those things a day and then scavenging for whatever food was on the fridge
Sometimes she would just buy 3 large pizzas and give us the equivalent of one to each person in the family lol and since I'm literally stupid I thought this was normal
I'm trying to learn how to cook but I'm literally so STUPID I can't cook for shit and it's not like I can use her food because she gets angryyyyyy and I don't have money to buy my own atm but god

Then all you have to do is call the company and tell them you need to update the information.
Rabies tag is good identifying info also, they are unique, so write that number down somewhere just in case.
You'll be fine anon, I promise. Thank you for giving this pup a good life!!
I would make a google drive where you upload any pertinent pup info - screenshots/pdfs of email/text exchange, medical hx, up-to-date pup pictures, etc.
Also, when vet scans the microchip, take a picture with your phone, and upload that to the Google drive too so you have it somewhere!

I'm sure the clinic will be okay with doing a free MC scan btw. Just call them ahead and ask if they're okay with it. (Depending on how their social distancing is going). Let them know the situation if you feel comfortable, but that you would like to get her MC info changed ASAP to give yourself peace of mind.

>>584920Have you considered fostering kittens? It's kitten season rn and a lot of shelters are getting full. I would recommend if you could foster kittens on the older side (4-7 weeks, generally they're adoptable at 8wks), as the younger ones need to be fed and stimulated around the clock. It's really wonderful to see them grow up and learn to do things! I could watch young kittens for hours tbh.
Although, if you think your prof would be okay with you bringing a baby to class [1-3weeks], all you would need is a hot pad (microwaveable kind that stays warm for ~8hrs) and KMR (kitten milk replacement). You could keep the kitten in a soft carrier with a towel on top of the hot pad, and just take it out to feed/stimulate every 2 hours. Stimulating is easy, you just take a tissue or toilet paper, wet it a little bit, and rub it on their genitals/butthole, and that helps them go.
Only downside for these babies is you have to do it at night too! So that's why I usually recommend the slightly older kittens that can wait a little longer between feedings/stimulating. (4+ weeks).
Sorry, I went into a bit of a kitten rant there, but I think they're fascinating little creatures and a wholesome distraction to bleakness. Plus, you'd be the most popular kid in class - just, uh, clear it with your profs first, I guess!
Congratulations on med school! I'm proud of you!

I've finally escaped two and a half years of abusive household that involved narcissistic mother and cut off the contacts with her completely, even though she still tries to find me through my grandmother but I am really far away.
I can't believe it that i still have to encounter other family member, a sister in law who actually turned out to be the exact same nutjob as my mother.
I feel like as if I am a weak person because everytime there'd be a family meet up that includes this womanchild (who is trying to compete with me while being 7 years older than me. Ironically enough kins MyMelody on internet…) I end up having panic attacks and after each meeting I'd spend time crying alone in a shower and feeling like shit for a week.

am i an asshole for losing my attraction to someone after they told me their sexual history?
So I met this guy a bit ago. We really clicked and bonded over the fact that we are both entering Orthodox Christianity despite not being born into it. I told him my story about how my suicide attempt led me to find God and turn my life around.
He related to me and told me his story as well. He told me that he used to be a sex addict and a drug user and was going down a really bad path in life, but then recently discovered Orthodox Christianity. Not a pretty past, but I accepted it at the time and we started talking more. We have had so many good conversations and I do enjoy talking to him a lot.
Suddenly he told me he wanted to pursue something romantic with me. I told him I am interested but I am not ready because I still have a lot of work to do on myself since my suicide attempt wasn’t that long ago, he agreed and we kept talking.
Gradually he started to get into more details about his past without me asking. I told him I would never judge him and I still don’t but what he told me made me lose interest in him romantically. He would constantly tell me these graphic stories about girls he’s dated or slept with and specific things they’d do sexually, but then always tie it into some irrelevant story later. There’s no point to tell me those things but somehow he felt the need to.
It almost felt like he was bragging sometimes. That his ex girlfriend was beautiful and a japanese model, that he got oral sex from a girl in the Philippines on a highschool trip, his neighbor growing up with had huge boobs, etc…. Not things that I wanted to know, very off topic stuff.
Then he told me more and more. That his body count is at least above 60, that he has slept with both genders, participated in group sex, and even had sex with older women.
Again I do not judge him for these things and I don’t see myself any better than him. But with this knowledge I do not think someone with that sort of past is who I want to be romantically involved with. He swears he’s a different person now and it really seems like it but I know sexual addiction isn’t an easy thing to beat and his problems could always come back. That’s not something I’m prepared to deal with.
I just feel less attracted to him altogether. I’m not a person who sleeps around a lot, and I have jealousy due to my insecurities that will eat at me if I pursue him. We have lived very different lives. I just don’t want to deal with the baggage that comes from knowing these things.
If I am the asshole please explain. If i’m not then does anyone have an idea on how I can tell him what I’m feeling without hurting him?
No. 585253
>>585248Anon you haven't said anything about him that's worth pursuing besides the fact that he's Christian and I'm pretty fucking sure Christian men are a dime a dozen who won't be ex drug users and sex addicts. You don't owe him anything. Men drop women for body counts all the time.
You're allowed to have preferences, cut it off now before this creep gets too attached to you.

He has to realise that he's crossing a boundary there and that's a shitty thing to do to someone under the guise of 'I'm just opening up/offloading some of my past'

>>584619I have a similar story, my former best friend was extremely abrasive, but she had a hard life and tons of trauma, so I saw why she was the way she was and made excuses for it for 8 years. Every time we fought, I'd apologize to keep the peace, or she'd start talking to me again without apologizing but being a little nicer and I recognized it as her way of trying to show that she was sorry, but she couldn't say it. One day I was the one in crisis and had just gotten out of the hospital, I responded only sporadically for 2 weeks because I was at the lowest point of my life (which she knew) and she unfriended me on FB where all our online communication took place, which broke my heart but I accepted it as the end of our friendship. So after that she messaged me on a different platform she had never talked to me on, just to tell me how disappointed she was that I had dropped her friendship, when she was the one to symbolically cut ties. I was too exhausted to argue with her about it anymore. The truth was that I often felt like ending our friendship because of her behavior, but I had a really hard time doing it. So in a way I'm relieved, but I still miss her. She was the only person I could talk to about certain shit and she left a hole in my life.

>>585303Reddit's go-to male feminist subreddit (I forget its name) has a rule in the sidebar that second wave feminism is "the wrong feminism" and only third wave is correct.
Men need to be reminded that feminism isn't for them and they have no place in it. It doesn't matter what they think or their opinions about it.
I wish peoplew would stop with the "feminism helps men, too!" bullshit. Feminism isn't meant to help men, it's meant to dismantle the system that gives them their power that they use over us. The system that lets them rape/beat/murder us and get away with it. No male can be an actual feminist because to do so would make him complicit in his own downfall

>>585324I've found men who call themselves feminists are trying to say: 'I don't hate women or mistreat them personally, but I also don't care about these issues.'

No. 585343
>>585324In my experience men who call themselves feminists think that it absolves them of any crime against women now and forever - that they’ve done all the hard work of “respecting” women already and now they can do no wrong. Describing themselves as a feminist is such a brave (read: humiliating for a man) act that they’re obviously made of that good stuff, no question - and if you dare question it, they’re going to get angry.
This type of man also sees it as a tool for getting women to let their guards down, sort of like a gay best friend, oh he wouldn’t hurt me, he cares about women, he’s for us. No, he’s not.
My ex was a “feminist” and he was a shitty, woman-hating rapist. He would insult me in front of strangers (like cashiers) or our friends, he really enjoyed calling me a bitch in a “jokey” way, and he’d force himself on me and the next day be all “I feel like I went too far… I’m sorry… please tell me if I did wrong, I don’t want you to feel disrespected…” and I would assure him it was okay, it was no issue etc, because I was an idiot and didn’t want him to be upset (or get angry), when it was plain and simple garden-variety rape that an imbecile could have recognised as such. But if a mutual friend brought up some guy being creepy towards her - not excusable, but sometimes just a bit weird - he would pile on as if this guy were the most disgusting human who ever lived. Current bf would never call himself a feminist but I’ve never been happier.Stay away from “feminist” men, honestly.

abusive towards me because I didn't want to be an engineer like him. I used to get screamed at by him constantly and it's only been recently that he's kind of less of an asswipe about it as I am an honors student, but he still insists that anything to do with reading/literature/culture isn't as "important" as him diddling around with satellites and drones. He constantly tries to pull the "I made a ton of money" card on me like that is somehow more important, when our family is fucking dysfunctional as fuck. And most of his wealth he made with the help of my grandmother.
The funny thing is…he has shit reading comprehension skills. Like so bad even when he was working at Boeing, he had to get a hooked on phonics type program to help expand his vocabulary because his reports were utter fucking shit.
Get your phd anon, because you don't know what wonderful things you may do with it. You may become head of a university or something.

I'm a poorfag, I live alone and support myself barely through shitty freelance work. A few years ago I was sexually assaulted by a bus driver while coming home from a late night shift and I ended up leaving everything related to the police report and stuff like that to my parents because I was in a really bad state. I just recently won the lawsuit that was made against the bus company that I wasn't even aware of, and I won some good money that I'll get soon.
My mum wants to control the money and how it'd be used, and she wants to put it towards buying a home for my sister, because she's 32 with a young kid and still living with her.
I don't even know how I'm gonna approach my mum about it, because while I'd love helping my sister, she has a much better job than I do and she even recently got implants and a tummy tuck and shit like that, so I'm sure she didn't move out because of financial issues.
I really need braces and jaw surgery not only for aesthetic reasons but also because my ugly ass goblin jaw is starting to affect my eating, and tbh I also don't wanna spend my early 20s looking like the indian jokar. Those procedures are costly and if I were to save money with my shitty job and paying for studies and bills I'd get it by the time I'm late 30s. This is the only chance I have to get it, but I think my mum will be pissed.

I feel like my friends look down on me a lot because I'm the fattest in the group, and so they feel anything I do fitness-wise they could do too. To an extent it's true, but most of them are girly girls who don't really like to sweat and expend a lot of effort.
Knowing this I did a mountain hike but I went solo. Personally, I like doing hikes solo so I don't have to worry about someone else's pace and I can take my time if I need breaks or if I want to sightsee, and my friends are impatient and don't really care about nature to begin with. So it was best to had gone alone. Grabbed my camelbak and off I went. I had a great time but the hike to the mountain summit was indeed extremely strenuous, which is deceiving. Even old people and young kids who went to the destination with the same impression I had did not make it to the very top. I hustled and made it after a few breaks, there were times when I felt dizzy. The other hikers there were very encouraging, and I got great pics of myself at the top even though I was a sweaty hot mess. A couple was nice enough to take a picture for me. The pictures at the top were gorgeous imo. I posted the pics to my social media and my friends seemed irritated that I didn't invite them, as if I kept a big secret away from them. They're just not the sweaty hiking types tho. Despite that they said they wanted to come along next time. One friend was so impatient that a few days later she went to the same mountain hike with a friend to attempt it. I hate to say it, but she had this air like "Oh my fat friend did it, so can I!" I warned her about the trail difficultly but told her to have fun and take lots of pics.
I don't think her and the friend actually made it to the very top. She only posted one picture to our group of the mountain range but it looks taken from a vantage point that wasn't the summit. Usually she's the type to post a bajillion pictures and selfies on public whenever she does something. So based on her message exalting how difficult it was, and how she and the other girl had to walk back, I don't think they made it all the way. It would have been too cool to not post if they had. Which must have been really disappointing because it's a big drive one way just to go out in the middle of nowhere to do that one thing.
Yeah I'm a little smug but maybe they shouldn't underestimate me so much. I don't quit.

My fiancee's mom died early this week and I have to say its been a wild ride.
Obviously I am very sad, she was a wonderful woman, beloved by her community and by family alike. I am an immigrant in the country I live in and she has made me feel welcome more than any other person ever has, and I am truly happy to have met her.
For background my man and his sister are sort of black sheep in their conservative family, him being a quiet sort of bookish guy and her being a soft-all-over-triggered-by-birds-in-2016-tumblr sort of girl if you get my drift. (It does come in later I swear). I also need to point out the family does not believe in mental illness.
At the family gathering (30 people in a tiny room with 7 dogs) after the horrible news my fiancees grandmother ended up having a massive shitfit at his sister for crying too much that her mom has died. I thought that was pretty messed like I know it is pretty sheltered of me but jesus baby christ my grandmother would never do me dirty like that. My fiancee got into a row with his grandma and the rest of the family defending his sister, it was insane, I thought they were going to literally kill each other.
The sister as a result didn't want any of the extended family to clean out her mom's house and asked her brother (my financee), myself and her boyfriend to help her clean it all out. I was more than happy to help. It turned out that the mom was a bit of a hoarder, and liked cats. Upon walking in it was obvious that she had some sort of depression as the place was in very bad shape with trash, cat piss/shit everywhere along with massive amounts of useless purchased goods.
Anyway we got cleaning, buying all the supplies and stuff. I started sorting it all out, cleaning the poop and other bits. The place is absolutley stuffed with stuff, like 5000 allen keys in a box sort of hoarding. This lasted the past few days. Just my fiancee, me and the sister's boyfriend cleaning out the house. The thing is his sister has not done anything at all, like the entire time.She usually stood around watching me clean and and sort things away with this sort of venomous snooty glare, making snide comments about throwing out anything vulnerable. I thought that maybe she was mourning so I just brushed it aside.
However, today, I had heard her have a hushed conversation with her boyfriend about how "The 'insert nationality' girl needs to be watched so she doesn't steal anything important."
In all honesty it really hurt me. I had been going neck deep in a place I have never been before, for someone I care for nonetheless, but still I am absolutely fucked from playing maid. I feel terrible for feeling resentment in this situation.
On top of that today my fiancee found some bank statements that show that his mom had stolen money of his bank account and used his student loans to fuel her online bingo addiction. She has stolen over £6000 in his first year of uni. He has been broken up over it and on top of his grief for his sister, grandmother and his late mom I have no idea how to help him get better. Like I am here but it does not feel like enough, it is too insane for me to be the straight man in this but god dammit I am trying. Feels rough.

My manipulative ex made these accounts to circumvent a block on social media. It was so fucking rude and awful and unnecessary. I just want no contact because he is insane and untrustworthy and a liar and extremely pushy (with sex, too).
It ended with him making an attempt to fake a legit acc to request me again before I deactivated both my accounts. That was so creepy. I just had to deactivate. There was also a "porn bot" that might have been him. He had to charge up his phone again and sent me text messages today. The first one was manipulative that he really loved me and how little I appreciated him and that the block was proof. The second was that he appreciates me.
That gives me some warm feelings again.
I almost fantasised about him today. I don't see myself slipping but he's in my head for now.

Watching people desperately clawing and grasping for milk that had already turned to stale powder makes me wonder how much some people must feel about themselves to be stalking these lolcows’ social media accounts just to be the first to post a screenshot of them being cringy… but its just some update of them being kind of boring? i mean these lolcows have done “cringy” things or were straight up terrible and Im here for calling that out, but sometimes its just a mundane status update just as vacant and shallow as your friends or even your own, or some anons pointing out a flaw in their photo like a stretch mark or peach fuzz that theyve had to zoom in 10x to find
its worse considering that a lot of them just seem mentally unwell. Its almost cringy watching people picking very obviously troubled people apart for laughs.
Gonna abandon thread after this one, but the TERFs are something else entirely. There could be a pic of the most Eurocentric ideal image of femininity and they’ll still get accused of being a man because they dont like their jawline. It makes me wonder how many regular women and teens are going through these threads, watching these other women getting picked apart because theyre so obsessed with hating trans women that theyve gone on to scrutinize the normal ones too, are here and probably internalizing all of that. Like even if you’re cis, if anyone judged you the way that TERFs judged anyone they suspected of being a trans woman, you just wouldnt pass. I honestly doubt that anyone here, like you if you’re here reading this, would actually pass.
I guess thats why TERFs are so intense? I get not wanting to date dick (Ive been with my wife before being trans was a big thing and the ones that I did know where into guys so idk how big of an issue pushy trans women in lesbian dating scenes is sorry) or wanting men to use being trans to prey on us in our private spaces, but when your community is picking apart women so meticulously that they cant even trust cis women anymore, its easier to uplift yourself by stepping on those trans women who arent as good as you, the real cis woman. You pick can trans women apart because theyre proof that you are feminine enough
Idk I just remember coming here from a thread I saw on /r9k/ thinking I could escape all of that misogynistic and extreme scrutiny of women, but its still here in a different flavor

So I vowed to stay single after an extremely messy ending to a relationship that I jumped into way too fast. In the time since I've had a few companions that I have known for awhile but have overall been pretty damn reclusive.
Finally decided to meet up with someone, we met twice within the same week, things were going well… butterflies n stuff, and then he fucking ghosted me after I made plans to stay the night. He said he was feeling really sick and had fallen asleep. We talked back and forth a tiny bit the day after but now he hasn't talked to me in 3 days.
Wouldn't concern me normally but he was previously so eager and seemed to really be into me.
So here I am, worried that I ruined any chances with him because I said I've been thinking about fucking him nonstop, while simultaneously paranoid that I'm doing exactly what I've done before. Damn my brain that only shuts up when I can distract myself with another human. Damn my brain that gets so anxious I become a non-functioning ball of disassociating emptiness

I've vented about this previously. I joined a foraging group on facebook and I just don't understand how the 'regulars' there can be such pretentious pricks when people come to that identification group specifically meant for people to ask questions.
You know I've been in a lot of different hobbies like j fashion and gaming, but at least elitism made sense in those hobbies because most of that shit followed around money and readily available knowledge that didn't have any real bearing in regards to life or death.
Foraging is fucking free. It's a bunch of broke ass people bumbling about in a woods looking for shit to eat. Asking questions about the shit makes fucking sense because mistaken identity could actually injure someone or get themselves killed if something's poisonous. Imo there's way more at stake there than someone foolishly coordinating a dress or getting owned at a game cause they're a noob.
Like jfc, I HATE the people in this group even though it's been really helpful in my learning. It sucks when I think there's valuable discussion in the replies to certain posts only for these 'regulars' to be ribbing the OP over something retarded. They circlejerk themselves for thinking they're clever for being more knowledgeable than literal beginners and OFC one of the admins most guilty of this is some homely bitch whose only power is being in charge of this stupid group. I wish they'd all fuck off.

I love my natural hair but I am just so exhausted from having to tackle it every day. Thinking about shaving it all off since it is a little damaged from all the sjw danger hair dying. My hesitation rests in no longer having a big afro and the length of time it will take to grow back to it's current length. I love black hair I really do but this is such a chore without being able to go to beauty salons.
I'm pretty muscular for a woman so I'm also worried about reading as male to others without my long hair. The pressure of always looking good as a black woman is so annoying I swear to god

Last night I saw a badger get killed by a car, right in front of me and I couldn’t have done anything to help.
Me and my bf were driving back home from a day trip, around 11 pm, on a shitty two lane rural road, when we saw something we thought was a dog laying in the middle of the road, clearly hit by a car. My bf stopped and got out to check if it was still alive and it turned out to be a large badger, indeed still alive. He had a wound on his back and was bleeding from the mouth, but he was still trying hard to breathe and move his legs, so we couldn’t just leave him there to die. We wanted to move our car and turn on the hazard lights to shield the badger from the oncoming traffic, but there was not enough time for that, as there were cars coming from the opposite lane pretty fast.
So my bf is standing on the roadside waving at the cars, trying to get them to slow down and drive around the badger, while I’m frantically searching for a phone number to call the local police station (in my country, when you find a wounded wild animal you’re supposed to call a non-emergency line and inform the police, so they can contact people qualified to deal with a situation like this, usually a designated local veterinarian and/or a person from the hunters association).Three cars slow down and pass us safely, but then, right when I’m in the middle of dialing the number, fourth car comes, ignores my bf and HITS THE BADGER, full speed. Bf starts cursing, jumps back in the car and follows the guy, flashing his headlights, signaling him to stop, while I’m standing on the road bawling my eyes out, completely fucking useless.
The other driver actually stopped and was very apologetic, claiming he didn’t see my bf or the badger laying there (clearly didn’t pay attention to the fucking road but ok). In the end he even helped us carry him off the road so he wouldn’t get run over by any more cars, which was all we could have done at this point, as he was obviously dead.
Sorry if this was long and rambling, I guess I had to write this whole ordeal out to take it off my mind. I know this was “just” a badger, but the way he was struggling and the sound the car made when it struck him… I don’t know, it just hit me really hard and I’m still not over it. Especially since this was the first time I’ve ever watched a beautiful wild animal die, let alone in such a senseless way, and I know there might’ve been a chance to save him.

>>586270Trust your gut instincts anon. He doesn't sound good to me either. I dated a 35 year old at 19 (Yes I am a dumbass). Your brother, at worst, is predatory, at best, extremely emotionally immature. CP means he's either into it sexually or found it funny; some degree of sociopathy. Either way, mental issues going on there. One could grow out of it, but there would be no way of knowing, he could also be better at hiding it. Combine that with a girl fresh out of high school when he's been on his own 10 years, equivalent to half his girlfriend's life on earth, you have a functioning fucking brain for noticing predatory behavior.
>>586271I'm so sorry anon. I can understand your pain. It seems silly, but I accidentally killed a lizard trying to get it out of my house (my mother hates them). I didn't realize my own strength when I came down with a plastic tub trying to capture the lizard, it ran away the same time my hand came down and decapitated it. I'm still mortified I did that. I've also seen a bunny and dog get run over in front of me. Lots of dead animals on the street in Cali. Drivers are worse than the stereotypes.
>>586272I can relate anon. Sorry to "CoMMuNiCAtION" you, but perhaps voice you would like him to make an effort to be more physically affectionate. He probably can't force it to the degree you would like, but knowing he's trying is the important part. Also consider your needs in a relationship. Compatibility of affectionate displays are a
valid reason to end a relationship. I grew up in a narcissistic household, so when I'm not being love bombed by a potential partner, I feel like they aren't really interested. I didn't get touched as a kid either, and no siblings, so I am exceptionally physically clingy. Perhaps there is an anxiety lurking from earlier experiences.

My bridezilla friend has been driving me nuts with making her wedding plans work. Despite switching to courthouse eloping due to covid (which I and a few others aren't invited to), and wants a fancy dinner afterward (where I & others are invited to but we pay for ourselves), she still wants a full shebang wedding next year just to have a ceremony too. I'm in the bridal party so I'm stuck.
A few of our friends said they don't want to go to the dinner, so I asked her if it was okay to bring a plus one since they weren't going. She totally just said no cause "she doesn't know who I'm bringing." Bitch, what the fuck? I don't know some of the people she's inviting to this dinner but I'm p sure she'd be offended if I said I wasn't going for that reason. It's not like she's paying for us, so. I feel like doing something petty and setting up a separate reservation for me and the plus one nearby so we can 'be there' but it's technically my separate reservation that she doesn't get a say in.
I don't feel like she values my feelings as a friend, she's done fucked up shit to me recently that kind of proves she doesn't really give a rat's ass about my life. It's rubbed me in such a wrong way that I feel like making an excuse to not go at all.
Especially if I have to Groundhog Day this shit next year regardless. I wish people who throw weddings and want people to devote multiple days of their time realize that it's as much a gift from their friends to do this for them as it is an 'honor' to participate.

A wedding is something that's shared with family and friends, so why would you want a stranger there? It literally doesn't matter who you know there tbh
And if she hasn't been a good friend to you recently, then why are you still apart of the bridal party? You should honestly either try to resolve your issues or cut her out instead of trying to make the dinner about you because she won't let you invite a stranger.

My experience with men that ghosted me early on is: you don’t know what’s going on in their life. Maybe they had an old ex resurface. Maybe they were going on mutlple dates and decided to prioritise one person. Maybe they decided they don’t like you that much. Maybe they felt like you moved on too fast. Who knows. Sometimes it’s awkward to spell it out to someone.
Forget it. I got into a relationship with a guy that seemed perfect on paper, and he was equally into me, only to realise a month later that I couldn’t stand him after all.

i just went through a break up and am about to start a new chapter in my life, so it's probably related, but i've been questioning everything in my life.
what's happiness? where do i want to be in the future? is the path i'm taking the right one?
i used to childishly think happiness lied in being in a huge city, having access to all the cool stuff i wanted to consume (clothes, food, exotic stuff, etc). hell, i imagined happiness being all the way abroad, no questions asked.
however my ex loves his home, which is the countryside with famous touristic spots, and most of all, loves his family, his culture. he sees his future at home, not in a big city or abroad. at first i thought he was foolish, the countryside's boring, i can't wait to move to the capital, yadda yadda.
but i progressively understood what he felt. i don't have all of that. i don't have a home where the generations before me were born, and for all of my life, up until very recently, my only family was my mom. then, i had no friends. so maybe i overcompensated by daydreaming about other places, about things i couldn't get my hands on, things that had nothing to do with the ordinary for me.
i know i have to go; the one thing i feel like doing in life right now is in the biggest city in this country. but after that…do i want to move to the even bigger city of my dreams?
not gonna lie, all i wish for rn is to settle and create strong bonds with a large group of people. but i keep moving. it's so frustrating.
i don't know where i'll be in the future so i'm not gonna quit everything in under 5 minutes just to be faced with the consequences and unable to fix anything for a whole year…but i wish this feeling could be fixed.

Reading an anons post here about neglected children I was halfway through typing a long ass sperg about how 'my mom wasn't neglectful tard!' But I'm wondering if that was a little true in my case? I mean, mostly because my mom had no knowledge about the internet so she didn't know what I was doing except watching anime and playing dress up. She didn't, and still doesn't, have much of an interest in my life. Doesn't know the name of the uni I'm in, doesn't know my friends' names, what has been going on in my life etc. But I still don't think she is neglectful because she really does love me a lot and me and my sister are the most important to her so how can she neglect us?
I remember as a kid when I told her my personal religious tutor molests me and she just gave him a stern talking to and still made him teach me, which I kind of resent her for because it didn't stop him from having his hands under my pants. And when I was a young teen and was talking to pedos online and sending them videos, which made me uncomfortable, I didn't tell my mom because I thought it wasn't anything serious, just like before. I don't know where I'm going with this, just writing down my thoughts I guess. I do love my mother a lot. She did all she could as a single mom living in a deeply backwards country, I just have some confusing feelings.

I'm a dumb bitch and decided to look at what kind of porn my boyfriend has on his computer and now I'm confused. He has claimed the whole time we've been dating that he only likes thicc/chubby girls and that skinny women aren't attractive to him at all. He even has begged me not to lose weight because he didn't want to lose attraction to me if I became thin. Then I see on his computer that the only kind of women he masturbates to are thin ones,not a single one that's even remotely close to being "thicc." I just am confused as to why he would claim his disgust for thin women so much but that's all he jerks off to. I wouldnt even had cared if he found thin women attractive because even I think they are and I told him this before. Well I guess I'll continue to lose weight again because it's apparent it wouldn't matter regardless.

Anon he's denying his attraction to skinny women so you'll stay, do you really want to be with a man who views you as second best?
Secondly, thicc and fat women who stylize themselves and who are confident get men these days. Women are the choosers, don't let men talk you into getting it twisted, they are the beggars and we are the prize. You can pull a man who genuinely thinks you're attractive and likes women who look like you.
Lastly, don't date men who watch porn or at least are unashamed of it.

Why is this acceptable? So she should have taken this shit seriously if she found disturbing porn, but since it's only fantasies about women who look nothing like her, she should be happy? Bad news: the only thing that separates a man from his fantasy is lack of opportunity. If he thought he could get skinny models he'd be out doing it.

I've been trying to move my boyfriend into a consumerist-minimalistic line of thinking. He's been depressed lately about being in his late 30s and not finding success with writing. He's really good at it and he's had articles in magazines, but the industry is tough to make a decent living off of. He really wants to finally get a novel published but everything bad keeps happening. I'm naturally unambitious because I've found contentment with striving to be a good person and indulging in life's pleasures (ie reparations for this painful existence lol), but understandably he's discontent with just that. We've had a few talks and I try to lead by example but it's slow progress.
I don't know how to express these thoughts without sounding like I'm asking him to give up on his dreams! I just want to make him content with himself. Suggestions welcome, anon-chans.
No. 587158
>>587142Exactly it, I feel like he needs to be "set free" from his ambitions. I keep reminding him that life isn't one-track and he can change it at any time, and it'll be okay because he's still young. I think it cheers him up a little every time so I'll keep at it. Thanks for your thoughts!
>>587152He's on his third, iirc. The first one was self-published, the second is in revision. He's got other short stories and stuff which got more success since they appeal to magazines. Recently he got cut a check for this story for $200, yes I'm humblebragging cause I adore him!

>>587138>he wants something grand in life Not to insult your little bitch, but being a novelist is the most counterproductive way to lead a "grand" life. Most authors don't wind up famous until they're dead if their works get any attention at all. I'm sure many authors would love to be the next Rowling but that isn't going to be how it pans out for the majority. Until he proves it he's no more special than any other writer out there with the same struggles he has.
He needs a reality check so you're not suffering and bringing down your quality of life. You need a man who can hold and carry his own. Why doesn't he get a real job in writing that's not freelance? There's technical writing, journalism, underwriting, grants, etc.
He's not going to gain confidence by people indulging in his slump. He'll be confident when he starts making money using his talents, maybe not in the way he originally wanted, but too bad. That's reality.

>>587158 He has invested so much time into making it big, he probably feels ashamed and doesn't want to "give up". I've been there.
If you want to help him out, support the work that is actually meaningful to him (presumably novels?, you know the one!).
He doesn't have to spend time writing dumb stuff just to impress others or network. Unless you enjoy the process or the result, never do it unless it pays the bills.
That's the whole point of art. He spends too much time writing sht he doesn't enjoy in any way shape or form. He can be happier with his work and life if he does it for himself. Encourage that.
I don't know if he is making his money exclusively from freelance writing but if he is not happy with the process, he should just find a non creative job and do it on the side. No shame on that and it's very liberating.

>>587416Same, sis. My family is not very rich but at least I'll inherit a few apartments in my hometown (sounds fancier than it is, both are in old commieblock buildings in a small place). I'm not concerned about that though since I don't care what I'll have 20 years down the line, I'm salty that I don't have my family with me. All the locals are rich as fuck and travel all the time, buy big houses and give their kids everything they want, but those kids are so fucking useless despite having an amazing passport, money to do whatever they like, they come from a country with a great reputation and are respected just for this reason, they speak the local language much better than I ever will, and they still manage to whine and whine about how hard their life is, it drives me up the fucking wall.
Especially when it's young men doing this, you have all these opportunities and people have spent
so much on you growing up and all you do is take and take and consoom video games, still manage to look like shit and give nothing back, and then you have the neck to complain how your life has no purpose and how you can't get laid/can't get a gf when lord knows that even if you did, you'd pay her no mind and treat her like garbage.
So not only do you consume resources some poor women in rural Ukraine would kill to have and could do so much with, you actively shit up other people's lives too by making them miserable and then you wonder why your life has no purpose when all you do is spend on yourself and your consumerist hobbies, then get upset that nothing fills the gaping void in your sad existence.
Imagine how much better off we'd be as a species if these wastes of space managed to donate even a third of their income to a local environmental charity, consume less, and actually went to volunteer somewhere instead of showing their unfortunate dick to strangers online and sitting indoors all day. Someone might even respect them enough to date them.

>>587438Jfc I'm so sorry. My situation was never so bad that I was literally homeless, but I somewhat feel your pain. My bf and I shared a 200 sqft "studio" for two years with no kitchen, no shower, no parking, and washer/dryers that were constantly broken. I would literally spend up to 40 minutes trying to find parking. The building had showers, but they were shared with everyone else on the floor. The building was full of ants. We were paying almost a grand a month for this place.
Before that, I lived in what was basically a shed for a year on my own. It was like 5x10 ft and could only fit my clothes and a bed. It wasn't insulated and leaked so badly whenever it rained that I'd have to come crash in the living room of the people renting it to me.
All the while, I'd try to look for better options, but they were about as limited as yours. Nothing available was typically much better than my current situation. You'd find somewhere that was bigger and had like, an actual bathroom, but still no kitchen and no parking, plus it was $400 more expensive. Rental companies also loooove to take your money for applications, and then the place is conveniently rented to someone else two hours later.
Thankfully, we got lucky that a friend of ours bought a property in a nearby city and is letting us rent a unit for dirt cheap. The move was so worth it. I know things will get better for you, too. I hope it's sooner rather than later.

>>587646Tbh I wouldn't write her off immediately. She's clearly a mess but that doesn't necessarily mean she isn't redeemable. The copy catting thing is probably because she admires you and doesn't necessarily realize that this is something that makes you uncomfortable. Hell, she may not even realize she's doing it at all. It's actually pretty common to mimic the traits of others without meaning to. Sometimes that just happens after you spend a lot of time around someone.
Honestly, I think people like this actually really need female friends. Women sometimes exhibit pickme trad behaviors because they assume that it's only men who want anything to do with them. It seems really common of pickme women to report feeling like they didn't didn't fit in with other women, or that other women didn't like them, growing up. It's really easy to judge someone for that, but it is actually coming from a place of hurt.
If all of these traits are something you don't think you'll be able to look past, don't befriend her. Alternatively, if she has already shown signs of being rude and/or

>>583139Being at home with family because of the pandemic is really starting to get on my nerves. I know that there are people at home with actual
abusive family members and that my situation is much, much better in comparison, but I am so tired and just need to rant. I'm the youngest and my mom and my brother pretty much still treat me like a child even though I'm twenty-two years old. My dad doesn't live at home because he's been married to his job since I was a kid and has checked out from being a father/husband (something my mom complains about a lot), so my brother (who's a lot older than me) has kind of stepped in as the "male figure of the house" role.
Them treating me like a child isn't the worst thing in the world, but it's the fact that they expect me to be the most normal, bland person ever or else they infantilize me. All they do is sit around the table and talk about politics, work, and their social lives. While they were talking about Chinese politics and criticizing the Chinese government, I stepped in to talk about a friend I have who has bought in pretty hard to Chinese propaganda. I guess it turned into a bit of a rant, but when I finished my brother simply responded "Okay anon, I think we get it." And then they just discredited my story and kept talking. Like, way to make me feel like my opinion is completely worthless in conversation. I don't have a problem with just checking out and not participating in family talks, but then when I do that my mom guilttrips me about how hard she tries to make our family perfect with an absent father and how I'm being ungrateful because I don't care about our family. I literally can't win. To be honest, I like being on my own so much that I'd rather live by myself right now than be with my family. I used to feel guilty about that because I felt like my mom and my brother do their best to provide for me, but after realizing that they also treat me like I'm stupid and am not allowed to have an opinion I realize why I feel that way now. At least when I'm living alone I can have interests and opinions without having someone laugh it off like I'm a kid talking about show and tell.

Well-adjusted anons who went through csa, how did you deal with it as an adult? I want to hear other women's experiences about it. How are you guys coping with it? What do you do when you're 'triggered' by somethings you see? What advice would you give to a young adult who's trying to better herself and deal with the things that happened in the past? I sometimes feels like I'm making a mountain out of a molehill because the things that happened to me weren't as bad as others have went through and I feel like a tard because they affect me so much. I got molested for years as a kid but wasn't violent. Actually it wasn't hurtful physically at all, (except when he pinched my nipple so hard it hurt) and makes me feel bad because I'm still so traumatized by it. I use to cry everyday after my tutor would molest me and jerk off in front of me but at least I 'got off light' you know? But it all has still lit my ass on fire as I'm realizing now. I am very hypersexual which I found out is very common of csa survivors. I've gotten it pretty well under control past year though, I haven't had sex nor did anything online (which im rlly proud of) but I still get panic attacks and near breakdowns every other week thinking aboht the videos of me I sent that could be out there. I cannot form relationships without being absolutely insufferable. I am so ashamed I had a chance with a nice dude but my insanity drove him off, rightfully so. I do not have any friends because I drive them all off and I hate myself because of it all. I have my mom and sis who love me a lot who I wouldn't trade the world for and it really is the only thing that keeps me happy. I dunno anons… hope you guys are doing well.

She only had me in hopes that it would patch her second marriage, which I failed to do. She resented motherhood, and didn't want to deal with helping me out as grandma the way she had to fall back on her own mother for help being a single mom.

Like I would still be stuck on something from 4 weeks ago and nothing anybody could do helped me because I am fucking retarded. Someone like me probably shouldn't be going to university, but in the world we live in I literally have no other options.

If you want to be a programmer in the future a CS degree might get you past HR but I wouldn't rely on it to give you the knowledge for things you'll actually do in the real world as a programmer. You'll still have to learn a lot of shit on your own and build a portfolio of coding accomplishments as proof.

Instead, they project their fears onto the objects of their desire by nit-picking everything that they do, hyper-focusing on their physical flaws, etc.
Some of them actually have deep-seated "mommy" issues, but a lot of them genuinely just have an insecure attachment, which can be caused by neglect/abuse of either or both parents.

It has been giving me really bad anxiety lately.
I kinda want to leave for my own mental health, but there are still some of that original group in the guild I care about and I'm worried we're gonna drift apart completely - not to mention finding a new FC that won't end up the same.

Anons, how do I get over my fear of flying? Especially when I've had traumatic past experiences with flying and airport. Thanks.
No. 589681
>>589655>>589659ok so i developed this fear randomly in my late teens, all it took was one panic attack on a plane to make
every plane ride associated with a panic attack. the book soar by tom bunn really helped me deal with my fear, as he is a seasoned flight captain who goes into detail describing the reliability of planes, how they work and how many things truly have to go wrong in order for an airliner to go down. planes can land safely with lost engines, hydraulics and wing parts. they are robust machines, and the book also explains the scary/loud sounds the plane makes during takeoff, in the air and during landing and keeps you from panicking over engine failure over normal flight sounds.
it's a really good read. but if you want the easiest way to destroy flight anxiety, xanax all the fucking way. literally a fucking godsend. if you explain to your doctor your fear of flying, they can write a small scrip that will give you ~10-20 pills to take as needed when flying. now when im on a flight i take one and im passed the fuck out for the entire trip. it literally makes you not give a fuck about anything and all you want to do is sleep. i fucking passed out during take off during my first xanax flight, god bless. i've never needed xanax for anything but flights and it truly is a magic pill for this exact situation lol.

My boyfriend is definitely my type lookswise, he's cute, he cooks, he drives me places, we have good sex, he doesn't watch porn and doesn't even check out other women, he isn't porn sick and loves my body no matter how I look. We can talk it out pretty good and he can be really understanding, in contrast to what I'm about to write.
There's always been some red flags. For example, we don't really have the same sense of humor. Also, he always tries to psychoanalyze me and it feels really patronizing.
Yesterday, he did a really loud, annoying, cringy impression of something like a middle eastern gangster type and I wasn't in the mood so I told him to stop and got up to put away some plates. When he didn't stop, I walked away into another room so I wouldn't have to listen to it. He walked after me and kept this annoying impression up, so I just begged him to please leave me alone. I got angry at him but I didn't really say anything hurtful or uncalled for.
After this, he started saying things like "Can't you just chill out for once? Why does this impression trigger you so much? Is it because it reminds you of something/someone? It's not normal to get this worked up over a joke, so it must mean that this triggers something deep inside you that you've tried to bury."
This made me angry, of course, so I started getting loud with him at this point and said stuff like "You can't possibly be serious right now. Can't you just accept the fact that this impression is shit? You do many good impressions but this particular one is just cringy and low effort and you're basically screaming, which just makes it more annoyinh. I'm just tired and not in the mood for this right now."
In his opinion, me getting angry with him at this point only confirms that he's right about his theory (because him just being unbearably unfunny and annoying is impossible). I don't really remember how it went on from here, we made up somehow and I went to sleep, but I'm still fuming thinking about it.
Thing is, he does this a lot. He always has his convoluted theories about why I'm acting in a certain way. I'm sure many of his theories have been correct, but most of the time they're really far off and it feels like I'm his subject, like he's constantly mansplaining my own feelings and thoughts to me, and some theories are just so absurd. I don't even feel like he does it because he cares about me, I feel like it's just his ego talking.
I feel like I'm being brainwashed at this point. I mean, I'm calmer than he is, he's constantly joking around and doing impressions. Sometimes, I'm also in the mood for being silly; he is VERY quick to call me out on being annoying and I usually get a bit grumpy for like a minute but I stop doing whatever annoys him right away. I have to tolerate his stupid shit all day long and he can't even take a break when I'm annoyed with it at the end of a long day without guilt tripping me and trying to make me feel like I'm crazy and treat him badly.
This relationship really fucks with my head. He's so good with me sometimes but then he's such a huge asshole at the same time.

>>589807sounds like you're not really made for each other. you don't have to be 100% on the same page but the constant psychoanalyzing and the inability to just stop doing things (giving you unwanted theories, doing annoying impressions etc) are big red flags.
you have to talk it out seriously and don't downplay how it makes you feel, or what you might do if he keeps it up. no one likes constantly being psychoanalyzed, he needs to accept this.

Guy who's made it a point to text me on a frequent basis slow faded me last night. Years ago I would've taken this as a high sign that there's something inadequate about me to have not kept his attention. So I would have attempted to panic bomb him with messages to get an interaction. The reality is he probably had (another) late night with video games after his workout, and tbh I'm done chasing men who prioritize dumb shit. Men only disappoint me now, but at least I have the comfort in knowing that it's not a 'me' issue. He'll come around later after getting his sleep in, and I plan to low key shame him.
>>589902He's mean to you and inconsiderate. You should definitely dump, he won't turn into a loving boyfriend just because you cry when he hurts you enough. He'll only do it some more. He's more upset about having to feel shitty that you're upset than the fact that you are upset.

>>590458Hello fellow anxious anon. I have been in a similar situation to you so I can understand where you're coming from.I have managed to obtain a license regardless of my anxiety so I'll tell you my experience
First of all,I was also in my early twenties and decided to finally go with it when I had SLIGHTLY better control of my anxiety and wanted some freaking independence.
Ofc it wasn't easy at all as I even had breakdowns during my driving lessons aka I acted like a retard but eventually I gained enough confidence and studied enough to actually do the exam. Now, depending on where you're from,driving exam can be more or less strict. Where I am from,it's common to bribe the people who examine you so you get the license either you deserve it or not(I'm not one of these irresponsible shitheads tho,I did extra driving lessons till I knew I was ok enough) since I didn't want to go through the stress again AND there was the possibility these people wouldn't let me pass no matter how good I drove.Maybe this isn't a possibility for you so I'm clarifying that
SO after I finally got my license, ofc I wasn't chill while driving for at least a year.For the first few months I wanted some experienced driver to be with me in case something happened(even tho this cause me stress sometimes) and there was no shortage of tears,stress,and panic. However,as time went by, I slowly gained confidence as i slowly started doing more and more demanding stuff on the road and saw I could manage it. There were times I had enough confidence to say "hey I can do this" but when I couldn't, I let it pass.
Now I'm not saying by any means that I'm a perfect driver(I'm bad at parking kek) and I avoid extremely demanding or dangerous roads if I'm alone(roads tend to suck where I live). And ofc I still make dumb mistakes and I'm not always in a good mood to drive. BUT I'm at a good enough level to do stuff for myself without having to worry about having to be picked up and even driving other people around in places if i feel comfortable to do so.
Idk if your anxiety is more general than just driving,but I believe it would be important to solve this issue first and then think about driving. From experience I can tell you that for a while,you won't be totally calm while driving and some stress will always be there especially in the beginning. But with exposure and shit this eventually dies down.Also putting this off can result in even bigger stress about driving in the future so you would do a favour to your future self to start as soon as you can.
Idk how much this helps and what your conditions are,but I hope that at least knowing there's someone who felt the same yet drives decently is somewhat helpful.

I got into contact with my biological older brother 2 months ago. I’ve never known him, and honestly; I’m highly disappointed in who he is. When I first reached out it was radio silence and only a like on my message. Than months later I finally get a friend request. He calls me and he starts talking. Come to find out his family kicked him out and he’s crashing at a friends.
I was at first excited to meet him, but it slowly turned into him trying to find some way to get me to let him crash in my small apartment with me and my mother.
My adoptive mother has been welcoming to him and stuff but doesn’t seem to understand when I say I am not comfortable in meeting him.
It’s been just constant him losing the current job he had, saying that “I just need someone to carry me to greatness”
I tell him each time to quit doing certain things to which he doesn’t take my advice, he will go days to a week without word (and me trying to contact him) unless something happens and he tries to slightly beat around the bush about coming to live with us.
This is something I’m 100% against because I don’t know him like that and I’ve expressed that I’ve experienced trauma that makes me uncomfortable around men, i don’t want to live in such a close quarters with a guy I barely know, it’ll really really push my recovery back . Few days ago my brother calls on an app to tell me he has a new number. I call him, and so he claimed he saved my number. I don’t hear from him for two days, and text him “hey” he says “who’s this” wow. You really didn’t save my number.
Days later and he bombards my phone with calls to which I don’t answer because I’ve been dealing with my own stress and I know why he’s calling. He decides to text my mother “I’m coming tomorrow”
My mom sends him our address. She waits a whole day before telling me and says “you know he’s coming right?” I confront her because I expressed to her how I felt about this days ago. She’s naive and thinks he means to visit. I tell her no, he wants to crash and stay here, I tell her I don’t want that and even if he wanted to visit I’m not ready. I’m not in the head space for that, the past few months have been so stressful and I can’t give someone that emotional intimacy if I don’t heal myself. She text him “we will reschedule, gonna be busy”
The next day he bombards both of our phones with calls, call after call after call.
He finally stopped after a while but he’s been vague posting on his Facebook about us. I already know he probably started something with his roommates (he doesn’t even pay them) that resulted in him flexing that he can find somewhere else to crash, and was trying to come unannounced and sneak it under my mother’s nose to which I caught and prevented. This is what he’s done to his family before they cut him off and now they won’t lets him crash. He got fired from his job for sexual harassment, he got fired from another out of “nowhere” and than the next one he got fired from and now he’s on his 4th job in 2 months.
I’ve hit my limit. I had to vent because it’s 5 am and he called and than wrote me the message “wow I see how it is”
I don’t want a relationship with him.
I shouldn’t be important when you need something
I shouldnt be contacted when you want something
I shouldn’t be bombarded and harassed AFTER you were told no that you can’t come.
I thought reunion would be heartfelt
Not like this
I’m sorry for it being so long

>>590481I haven't personality experienced this, but I know from a friend that the fact you're biologically related means shit if he is a terrible person. It sucks he has leached his way into your life but it would be for the best if you cut contact in any way. He isn't entitled to your life and mental health since he offers nothing better to you.
Honestly I wish you told him to fuck off. You don't deserve this anon

>>590486>>590488Thank you both, I know that his behavior is wrong, and honestly I truly want to just cut him off but a part of me feels the guilt from being negged by my mother about this topic to which I explained to her about and she has agreed (and respected) my choice and request of her not to put me in that position, but she still throws in little remarks going “ohh poor child! He must have real problems”
Another part of me fear that if I block him he will decide to come all the way down and wait at our door and on that part it is definitely a bullet my mother shot herself with there because all day any time we heard a car or door close outside we checked, turnt off all the lights and stayed quiet. We are literally in fear and discomfort being nervous that he might be outside.
The fact that these are emotions that are being felt is wrong. I’m worried about what to do in that aspect, I’m worried he’s going to just bring him stuff, sit outside and wait for us to come home and bombard us in that way, I’m worried about being put in a situation like that.

>>590491He has "real problems" that it's not your business to fix. Your mom needs to realise that.Other people got shit too and they don't become a burden
I thought you would say that but it's not like you are obliged to accommodate him. Idk about this stuff but I do believe you can call the cops in case he pulls shit like this.I know he will try to twist what's up and play the
victim,but considering his behaviour you can prove yourselves right. Maybe you can ask someone knowledgeable on this stuff so you know how to deal with it

>>590504duh, you should pay her back. but also, stop being chummy with an ex who "broke you". she's not cocaine, you're not literally addicted to her. keep your distances. you're still in firing range for her mood swings and
toxic behavior.

i live with two guys and one of them is constantly at home. i know it's his right, as he lives here and pays rent, but because of the corona lockdown i'm forced to be around him and am about to lose it.
this is a rude racist and misogynistic little man with barely any friends who spends all his time in front of his computer or reading fantasy novels (escapsim am i right ladies). the walls are very thin and our rooms are next to each other so i constantly am reminded of his presence.
he only leaves the house to go grocery shopping. i almost feel bad because i find him absolutely pathetic and it makes me want to be mean/rude to him. if he were a good person, i don't think i'd mind as much… but he isn't. also he barely brushes his teeth.

Alright, so this has been bothering me a little even though I know I don't have a right to be.
My boyfriend and I were kissing and such, and I said, "Oh I adore you!"
He replied, "..I always don't know what to say to that."
"'I adore you too'..?"
Then I realized what he thought I meant and reassured him that I won't be saying ILU until way further down the line.
Idk. I think I feel pre-rejected now lol, but I'm also holding out hope that I completely misinterpreted him because he did ask why I was holding out on it.

I'd been talking to this guy who I met a couple years ago, and he'd been flirty over fb. He was asking if I'd like to meet up sometimes since he lives a few hours away. So I invited him to a little get together I'm having next weekend because he was giving me signals and calling me pet names, so I thought he might be interested in me that way. He was messaging me frequently every day, sometimes I'd ask to video chat and he'd shower me with compliments then too. Sending selfies to each other. Not to mention the topics of our conversations weren't exactly justfriends-tier, example: I was admiring a ring I bought myself in the mail and what type of gem cut I liked while we were video chatting, he said "Noted"…like come on. Then saying how he wanted to move back in my area, among the reasons to be "closer to me"…sure. One of my best friends is friends with him-and her beau is friends with him too-so when I told her she seemed really excited for me, which I took as a green flag.
Welp, that all came crashing down. Around Thursday I could tell he wasn't messaging me as much, pulling back, and sinking into 'video games' for hours and even staying up mega late. It was really turning me off and I knew something was up. All of the sudden he "wants to take things slow." Really dude? After flirting with me hard like that and me inviting you down here to introduce you to my friends?
I also knew he had been courting another woman before we started talking. He admitted as much. She lives locally to him and is a single mom. She's popular and has thousands of friends on her social media, but doesn't mind asking help from this guy when she wants food or needs to move apartments. He assured me that they were just friends though and how they totes don't have anything in common. Like she was a Jesus freak and not nerdy, yet I noticed he did all sorts of that "nice guy" stuff for her. Like a simp. He mentioned earlier in the week how they got into an argument and he was upset that she was mad at him for it. So to make it up to her, he bought her coffee and doughnuts and brought them to her job last night. But he didn't mention that until I asked him what 'errands' he went to run while I was napping. He asked me if I was mad, which threw me off guard cause I wasn't but the way he predicted how I should be mad, made me think how he knew he did something that would make women mad. Now he's "overwhelmed" and "confused," and clearly if there was nothing going on between them he wouldn't feel that way. He sent me money the other day so I could buy dinner, but clearly that gesture was nothing special if he does shit like this for his female "friends" anyway.
Obviously I'm pretty angry about it. I told him that if he's still doing errands for other women and he wants to "take things slow" with me, then he should know I treat men differently and have stronger boundaries when a relationship isn't on the table. Clearly I had the wrong impression, and how I was glad he was telling me this now so I wouldn't be embarrassed introducing him to my friends next weekend as if there was something between us when there actually isn't. Told him this sounds like an entanglement. He kept wanting to call me to talk about it, I accepted once but made him type over messenger the rest of the time so I can't be gaslit about what he said to me later. I took a break to show my friend this conversation and she said wtf, we had a laugh, and called him a simp. Then I went back to talking to him more. It was awful, I don't trust him now. He tried to pin this about his ex and said how he always felt she was unduly jealous when he was just trying to be "nice" and repair his relationships with his female friends. Just no dude. The issue here is that you said things that led me into believing you wanted something with me, and now you want to keep me as a 'friend' aka a floating option because you don't know when you're gonna get your shit together, move out my way, and so you still want to mess around with the local tart with whom you have nothing in common because you're fragile like that.
I feel like messaging the other girl with a screencap from this conversation where he says they never dated, only talked for a long time, and only cares about her in a non-lover kind of way and asking her if it's true?
If it's true, then maybe he isn't a full liar. If it's not true, then I'll be glad to have made her angry at him again and screw over his all his simping effort. He flip flops between calling her "friend" and then saying how he was "seeing how things go" with her, kind of like how he's setting me up now. So I think he's lying, and I want to tell her to screw him over. At least it would make me feel satisfied over my wasted time. Oh and he's none the wiser as to how pissed I am right now, last night he thought he smoothed it over with me when it ended with us agreeing to "date," but who cares? "Dating" doesn't mean in a relationship! I'm still fucking single lmao, and he thinks I'm dumb enough to believe that "dating" means anything besides fielding options.
So what do you think farmers? Should I go full sabotage on his ass? I wanna make sure women hate him for awhile, and I wanna be sweet to his face while acting aloof, unreachable, and uninterested anymore.

>>590608That anon here, I'd suggest that you nudge him to get out more and do things.
It hasn't been long but he has scheduled events to look forward to now– that volunteering thing he's doing is pretty great. His words, he's basically a slave but he loves every minute of it. He received some merch from them so now he's ~official~ and working for something important even if it wasn't what he envisioned previously.
I'm also trying to get him into quiet tea breaks in the backyard so he can take a moment to appreciate how things
are, and I think he enjoys it. We stood silently under a canopy while it rained for half an hour yesterday and it was so peaceful and
present. I think it helps get him out of his head.

>>583139Hey! So I've been aligns with this person since like second grade, he's all around that truly matters my kinfolk by and by in any case there's something disturbing me about him.
So at like 1 am on Saturday he sent me a tiktok which was something like "Me getting away from the women's activists following to calling them dishwashers" and it demonstrated the gleam running or something. Do I have to clarify why this was upsetting? I didn't answer a lot to it, fine, he acknowledges he's interesting and poo.
Regardless, by then he sends another tiktok recorded "X shows women's dissenter" and it was a man curious with respect to whether she figures significance introductions ought to be dropped, she says yes and goes on a tirade about body inspiration, and a brief timeframe later the fella truly says "better trust it shut up feminazi lol". So I got him out and revealed to him that that was not a discussion, as my mate had starting late communicated, yet just a push to affront. I quit answering after that considering how frantic I was.
This miracles me all the more considering the proportion of a blackguard he is. On Insta he vows to be a women's lobbyist to get that sweet assistance, yet man, if you will send me that, don't post what's not what you truly address. Furthermore, no, this is genuinely not a constrained case, he did in like way when BLM was at its peak, posting about it and all, in any case at that point was communicating that Asians were lingling and chink.
I truly don't have the foggiest idea what to state, on the off chance that I quiet him out he'll communicate that it's only a joke. I truly regard him as an amigo and that he, ideally, isn't this way and is simply doing it for support, considering the route that by one way or another demonizing women's activists is before long a joke. In all actuality, I see some of them go to limits, yet there's dependably individuals like that all over, don't sum up an entire just from a hint of get-together.
PS: English isn't my first language and if this has any botches please right me, appreciative.

The creator of the source material for one of my favorite anime got outed as following hyperrealistic cgi cp on Pixiv and is now doubling down saying that "the world will catch up to Japan one day." I'm so fucking mad. The girls in his series are so unsexualized you wouldn't assume he'd be a freak, but any man working in anime/manga is bound to be a creep, huh? The pedophile defenders are out and defending him too,even if their usual platform is "they don't look real." Anime was a mistake.

>>590930gen z is the fucking worst with this. i'm an old millennial bitch and i have no idea what the fuck is going on with all these little retards running around with 5 separate psychiatric disorders by the age of like 15, acting like anyone who shows even slightly similar behavior must also have one of their same diagnoses and telling them exactly that. it's so cringey and weird and it's just making it harder for people to actually authentically connect with each other when we're all so damn focused on categorizing everything a person says and does.
of course, i know the problem didn't actually start with them. it was just normalized for them at an early age, with the APA constantly expanding the criteria for every fucking diagnosis under the sun.
