I wanna get back in to lolita because I miss how happy it made me and the belonging to the group. I haven’t felt beautiful like I felt when I wore lolita in a long time.
But I just seem to have lost aesthetic interest in the style - I don’t really like much of what I see and usually unimpressed with outfit pics, etc.
even the cof thread, there was only one coord I thought looked good in there (though I’d never wear it) and the consensus seems to be that it is quite boring.
I keep seeing these outfits that I dislike - idk if the overall quality of outfits from the community has lowered or maybe I’ve just lost interest? There is just so much awkward blouses and shoehorned colors and accessories. I have been enjoying a lot of goth and old school coords I see, they’re so clean and simple. But I don’t think I would want to wear those styles because I am not really goth in day to day life so I’d feel like a poser.

Would love any advice. I am so frustrated and I just can’t figure out what to do - I know I haven’t really asked a question..

i understand to an extent how you feel. it does feel like the general quality of the hobby has lowered considerably (based on the majority of coords posted online; even my carefully curated lolita only insta seems a bit lacking these days), and this has affected me in how im trying to participate in the hobby. The good thing is though that you dont need a comm to dress in lolita, but i understand, being part of something bigger/a group is always cathartic, we crave friendships which share similar interests we can participate in together. There's nothing i can say about this except find a handful of people who are on the same wavelength as you and then make /them/ your comm you know?
im under the impression from your post you dress in sweet? this being the biggest substyle rn i can understand how seeing a constant stream of trite "sweet" coords can make you feel a bit discouraged to get back in. personally in a situation like this i would just feel even more proud when i put together a coord which i feel trumps others in aesthetics and composition etc. you know? its ok to be just a bit full of yourself and passing it off as simply "being proud"- but you also mention being interested in old school and goth. Honestly even if youre not a lifestyle goth you can totally dress in gothic lolita? its a fashion- you dont have to stick to just one style, if you want a singular gothic coord amidst all your other usually sweet coords you can totally do that, no one's going to even say anything about you having a gothic coord despite not being goth.
you're discouragement with the hobby is a currently shared sentiment, and i hope anything i said could have made a bit of a difference in how you feel about it currently; either way, its always ok to take a break and slowly get back into it.

>>10661232
I'm not saying I think no one is making that calculation, but that the decision to go to a con if you're sick/feel like shit is dumb for your own enjoyment. And this person said they wanted to go but presumably didn't because they were afraid of testing positive. Which implies they didn't put the money down to begin with. It could also mean they made no effort to reduce the chance they test positive if they're so worried. If they're a doctor or nurse or work in a service/public facing job seeing randos all day I get the fear of course because that's uncontrollable exposure and feel bad for them, though. Or maybe they are responsible and all but just have anxiety and were playing it safe and not going just in case so they don't miss out on money, I totally get that too.

Looking forward to a comic convention later this year, but am slowly realizing that I've gone to a comic book store <6 times in the past 18 months... in past years I'd plot out dozens of writers and artists to stop by to chat and get things signed, but now I feel totally disconnected from the hobby I used to be really into.

My ex won't give up on our relationship, we're both in new ones yet every couple of weeks he'll contact me, i used to want to keep it civil with him so i used to read them, however as of late i won't even open his chat. I've thought about blocking him but recently he got into the habit of making other people message me instead of him to pressure me into getting back, i'm sure it will only happen more often if i do that. I already made myself clear on the fact that i want nothing and we won't work, but he's persistent. Don't get me wrong, i'm not as affected by it as i probably sound here, it's just a minor inconvenience/ kinda annoying to wake up to like 15 notifications from him and would rather he just stop, what to do.

Hey I dealt with this, went to the police and they told him to stop messaging me via other people.

What he is doing is pressuring you and guilting you, essentially emotionally manipulating you to be in contact with him when you don't really want to.

He knows what he is doing and you are being painted a bad person when he pressures other people to message you on his behalf, just talk to the police and tell them you're bothered by him and he is involving other people.

They can tell him to leave you alone and he will.

I think it's a bit of an overreaction to call the police, before you set boundaries or communicate you want nothing to do with him.

Make sure you actually express how you feel - or not. You should be a stone wall/brick wall to people like this. I've had an ex that's messaged me every year for 10 years. I've had to block him on multiple outlets. It's frustrating, but I tell him off each time and he doesn't message me until the next year. Realistically, I should give him no response for him to bugger off but I'm understanding that some people don't get over someone like..ever. There's a lot of people out there like that. It sounds like your loose boundaries are giving the wrong signal to him, maybe because you like the attention or you're responding in a way that's not entirely a stone wall. You do understand you have to be firm, right? If you want nothing then you need to completely block him out. If you're confused when you talk, then that's something you need to sort through but it gives mixed signals.

Found the incel kek. She said they are both a new relationship and expressed she didn't want anything to do with the guy.

He knows that and is still harassing her and convincing other people to harass her daily. This guy is a fucking creep.

Regardless of gender here (it would be just as fucking creepy if it was a psycho ex gf based on all this info) the ex is being manipulative and intentionally lowering anons quality of life for their own goals which seem to be breaking her down and forcing her to talk to him or give him what he wants.


Defense of this behavior unless any further context changes or clarifies any more of this is just stupid and blaming her for the actions of someone else who knows they're doing something wrong.

I believe in her post she straight up said she had made it clear she didn't want anything to do with him. Unless I misread or am thinking of a different post. And she said she was afraid to block him because she worried about how his harassment would escalate (getting EVEN MORE mutual friends to harass her too). Those are credible worries considering she is supposedly waking up to 15 messages from him each morning despite ignoring him.

I know she said it's only a mild annoyance but better safe than sorry; she should drop or have a serious convo with the friends facilitating his obsessive behavior before blocking him to make sure she isn't at risk of them all messaging like she is worried about.

I'm just pissed people are accusing her of wanting the attention because I've had a legitimate stalker who harassed and followed me before and it's terrifying, especially when police ignore it or people don't take it seriously. It only cost me a few car tires and damaged windows but could have killed or hurtme so I'm sensitive about this stuff I guess.

BTW Autism is only justified if she is setting clear boundaries, which she hasn't. Autistic people "can't understand" clear boundaries. He's having the message conveyed that she is open, because that's the communication she's giving him by responding. She hasn't set them. That's why you're clearly coming out at the autist, here.

I have a boyfriend anon, I just don't use that fact to try to accuse people being harrassed by an ex of being attention hungry. Also autism is no excuse which is what I said. Even if there was a clear boundary, autistic people literally DO understand those when it is explained or clearly expressed, it's the unclear social cues they have issues with. This isn't even about autism though.

I agree she should block him but said she should take precautions to prevent him from further bothering her like discussing this with the friends she is worried will be helping him circumvent being blocked because this screams creepy stalker behavior from the ex.

I just find it fucked up to basically accuse her of wanting attention just for not knowing how to handle a difficult person exhibiting this behavior.

OK. Well, if you've been firm with him then you need to get a no contact order. It's not a police endevour, but you have to tell him to "stop contacting you or you'll pursue legal action." Getting one is relatively simple as well, but that enough will usually make them stop dead in the water.

The police aren't going to do anything, regardless, because they aren't there to "prevent contact" unless there's an order in place. I understand the other anons are trying to be helpful, but they actually don't know the process. If you've been firm, which is what I was trying to uncover; despite you saying you've conceded and talked to him then well, you need to not talk to him. You need to threaten legal action, if he doesn't stop then pursue a no contact order, if that doesn't stop him, THEN you can contact the police because him crossing the line from that is dangerous for you.

I also think there's a misunderstanding here, i said i would contact the police if he keeps trying to reach out to me after i block him, which is still what i plan to do/ at least i'll seek out legal counsel in that case.
I blocked him yesterday after sending a message explaining clearly why i was blocking him, because i know him and know that if i just do it out of the blue he'll contact me again angry because i blocked him without a reason.
To clarify the timeline, at first i tried to keep it civil between us because he seemed hurt by the fact that i broke up with him, when i did he had a suicide scare and i felt bad about it. I then realized he was getting the wrong idea from me answering so i stopped, i have had contact with him twice since then, once when he told me i might be in danger because someone was tracking some trips we made to see each other to threaten him, the second was the first time one of his friends contacted me and i told him that this behavior made me uncomfortable. After that i haven't answered any of his texts, we were no longer friends on Facebook and i never answered his friend requests. While this was happening i blocked the friends that sent me messages and a family member he was using to contact me.
Yesterday i blocked him on WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram and every social media i can think of.
The comment i made regarding my boundaries comes from the fact that if i'm pressured enough i'll probably give in, which he knows, one of the reasons why i think he hasn't given up yet.

We don't have to know the precise police procedure (which for most cops is generally ignore the problem until someone actually hurts someone in an explicitly illegal way) to point out the frequent dismissal of the serious problem that people are doing by accusing her of wanting attention when she did exactly what those anons said she should do before contacting the cops which they claimed was an overreaction. It's frustrating to hear this stuff over and over again when she is doing the right stuff and the guy is the problem but she's being told it's her fault somehow.

Also keep in mind a large portion of cops are literal wife beaters, this is in part why stalking, harassment, domestic violence, rape, etc. is often overlooked.

He is dangerous to her the whole time on an emotional and possibly physical level. She even just said he was kind of suicide baiting her just to get her to reply. People like that are psycho and even if the no contact order is just the last line that has to be crossed legally speaking for the police to get involved, that doesn't mean that he isn't a danger right now considering all the context here.

Whoever claimed she just wanted attention can fuck off. That's been the main thing I and I assume other anons found stupid as shit, people acting like she is being ambiguous so she can get attention when in reality she has tried to make this stop and he just didn't listen.

Because they have tools that I do not have.
A man that refuses to leave someone alone is creepy enough, the fact that anon has to keep blocking more and more people means that he will not stop and will not "get bored of" harassing anon.

>i might be in danger because someone was tracking some trips we made to see each other to threaten him
That sounds like a girlfriend, honestly, but other than that .. it sounds very suspicious and telling you something like that is to get some sort've reaction to begin with. I think this guy is just really big into manipulating you from how it sounds, so you definitely need to be firm on legal consultation.

She explained it clearly enough that I could tell what was going on and seemingly others too. Waking up to a ton of texts after telling this guy to leave her alone and him getting his pals to bother her too was obvious creepy shit from the start.

I'm not blaming other people for not having the same experience that led to me seeing the red flags more immediately, I'm literally just upset that people's first response was "maybe you just like the attention" because that's harmful and lets people like this dude get away with their behavior by intentionally or inadvertently offloading responsibility or fault onto the victim who already did the right thing.

That clarifies a lot in terms of action. Yes, the unfortunate thing is the best thing you can do is just be very consistent or a "brick wall" to the entire situation. I think if you can build a case you might be safer, but just do whatever it takes to keep yourself safe at this point. Does he know where you live? If he does, then you need to invest in something to keep yourself safe and especially for peace of mind. I had to go through a break in sometime in my teens (while I was asleep) and having something next to you alleviates a little anxiety. Although it was a machete and I was a small girl, just knowing those things are around helps. I think in terms of legal action and police it's fuzzy for advice outside of the US, so I can only advise you to arm yourself / take defensive measures..

I get the FOMO though. My bf is hard to shop for so giving him gifts besides homemade sweets or gag gifts is literally impossible and he isn't really the type to give pricey gifts either so we just buy our own things, but that means missing out on the cuteness of exchanging Christmas and birthday gifts and that kind of thing which sucks.

I'll be honest with you, the guy reappeared in my garage like 2 times. Once before the break in with 3 other hoodlums, trying to get me to let them in "to lick my pussy." Fucking gross.

Then after the break in. Honestly. No one used that side of the house, so it is kinda conclusive that it was probably a childhood friend that was actively in a gang in the area.

Some people preferring to date someone they know or have developed a closer platonic relationship with does not mean their male friends are entitled to date them.

You act like every scenario in life has to end with you getting a girl. No one is entitled to a romantic partner based on their actions and if you're simping in the hopes it makes a girl like you as more than a friend that's your problem. I do nice things for my male and female friends all the time as a bi woman and it's because I love and care about and enjoy them as people, not because I want to fuck them. And they do nice things for me at times too because they enjoy my company as well. No one owes you anything, if you're simping for a girl to get some pussy it probably won't work so stop wasting your time. If you have a genuine friendship with a girl and get to know each other as a person and decide you like her or not or she decides she likes you, more power to you.

I think society as a whole would be better off if it was less sex and relationship obsessed. This shit is ridiculous. Every boy out here thinking he's Ron Stoppable or whatever sidekick male best friend and gonna get it in with the head cheerleader girlfriend just for being physically present long enough instead of trying to make genuine connections with people in life. People think forced diversity in media is bad; I think the forced notion that the nerdy guy best friend earns the "main girl" in his life because he's so smart and always simping is the worst part about some of the media we grew up with.

It's been a long time i was ghosted by my lovely friend. It wasn't even a romantic relationship, it was a friendship, and i haven't managed to replicate it since. It's gotten to the point where i'm seriously considering therapy. I wish that she'd get back into contact with me, so she can tell me what i did to get ghosted.

Forces in place since the dawn of time have driven humans to seek one another and give rise to things greater than the sum of their parts. The most obvious example of this is the biological example of sexual reproduction. I'm still hopeful enough to think this can also be transcendental love or the creative act etc etc etc who cares. My point was that we've taken this thing that was supposed to be THE POINT of LIVING--make something better than you, that will outlast you--and now it's just another dopamine hit.

Sorry, I thought you were describing sex as those things.
With the example of a creative act, think of it this way. Some people simply paint for pleasure, without putting their art out there or becoming successful. Some people become famous artists who impact the world with their creations for centuries to come. Is it wrong, however, for someone to paint simply because it’s fun, and impact the world in a different way? See sex as the same thing. Some do it to reproduce and that’s great. Others just see it as something fun and create something else that’s important.

Please stop perpetuating this idea. It is 100% better to wait to have sex until you're in a healthy, meaningful relationship. Sex affects everyone psychologically much more than you probably realize. Saving your body for a serious romantic partner is much better for your mental health than sleeping around for funsies. I say this as roastie who had multiple sex partners as a minor, not a um "cope and seethe". I also say this not to change your mind or anything, because I know you're just going to berate me this is 4chan, but because I need everyone reading this to know you're not pathetic or losing out on anything if you haven't gotten laid yet.

>There is a limit to which you can improve in anything

are you retarded? do you think some people are born genetically or innately better able to please both genders sexually to such a degree that any non-virgin person you come across or want to date has had this imaginary peak sex experience? even if another person is objectively more attractive than you, it's often a stereotype that hot people suck at sex.

are other people being wealthier, better looking, more fit, or more talented than you an excuse to not try to earn the amount of money you want, never care about your appearance, neglect taking care of your body, or quit all your hobbies because you are afraid someone else will always come out on top?

if anything knowing you are one of the vast majority of people in the world who will never be the best at anything--or even if you are not for long considering records get broken over and over all the time--should be freeing. don't do it to 'win', do it because you love it. same with a person and sex. don't do them to win at fucking them, do them because you like them and wanna do it with them, and maybe put some energy into making it feel nice and fun for both of you.

your defeatist attitude makes you sound like a quitter who gives up and puts in no effort. either have more faith in yourself and try to make the most of your life based on what you want/enjoy or resign yourself to your life of misery where you do nothing because you have a fear that someone else will do it better.

Hot people are often worse at a lot of things than the average person. "Pretty privilege" is a thing. They get by easier because we subconsciously associate physical attractiveness with other positive qualities not directly tied to it. The only thing making them a better lover or better to have sex with is the social status of bragging about it or internal excitement over it but the actual things they do to your dick or pussy are often mediocre or the same as otherwise.

sex is such an extremely individual experience, not everyone likes the same thing or can finish with the same thing. there isn't a "1 way works for everyone" method, lots of women (and men) can't finish from PIV, or dislike oral, etc.

anyone that's actually "good" at sex is because they ask their partner what they like and do it, which you can do and should already be doing as well. the best sex is with a person you care about that listens to you and what you want and vice versa anon, it's really weird to be hung up on not being as "good" at it as others.

Sorry to clog up the thread with this reply, but I’m hoping either the kind anons from earlier or someone else can help me with a related question

I’ve lost about an inch off each of my three-sizes so far, but was wondering if it’d be more effective if I hard-cap my calorie intake at 1300 regardless of how much I work out. For example, I’ve been using my fitness pal for calorie tracking, and it adds whatever I burned to my daily allowance. Ergo, some days I end up eating 1500-1700 cal if I burn lots at the gym. Should I be more careful not to do that, or will it not make a ton of difference in the long run?

I was driving through a shopping strip earlier and I saw a woman maybe in her late thirties with, I assume her mother, both very overweight and unkempt, dressed in gross looking ill fitting t-shirts and leggings, and they both had large, very nice looking Michael Kors bags. I know they're on like the lower end of price spectrum when it comes to bags, but they still have that kind of luxury aesthetic. This is really common around here. but I just wonder why women like this would even bother to spend $100-$500 on aesthetic looking bags when they don't bother to take care of the rest of their appearance at all. It looks like they bought their whole dumpy outfit at Walmart or on Amazon, why not just cheap out on the bag too, at least it'd be cohesive. My mom is like this, too, where she buys nice pieces from lower-end brand names like Ralph Polo Lauren, which is affordable but not like cheap by any means, and then never wears it- instead always wears a graphic t-shirt, sweatpants, and her nice purse which is just so jarring against the sloppy rest of the ensemble.

It's just hard to look at I guess.

How would you tell a girl that her big boobs are fine and that you like them? Would that be condescending? when we were in Hawaii my gf was crying in the changing room because they didn't have any swim suit that fit her boob size. I think she might have body issues with her boobs. How would you go about making her feel better? Would telling her I like her boobs be weird? I never expressed it outright before so I'm afraid that she might think that I don't like them.

>> No.10664953

>>10664929
I wouldn't say 'they're fine' because the issue here isn't whether they're fine or not, it's the frustration of not being able to fit into clothing she likes. You can say that you like them, but imo the focus should be on validating her frustration. Also, when in doubt, you can always ask her about it. Maybe it was just a one-off thing in a dressing room, maybe she hates her boobs completely. You won't know unless she tells you so.

I don’t think it’s a one off kind of thing because she also talked about getting a reduction. How would you suggest I go about validating her frustration or bringing it up? I’m really dense when it comes to these things. I tried comforting her in the dressing room when it happened but I wished I did things better. We’re really poor at planning trips and stuff otherwise I should have taken her to go shop for swimsuits before we left. I’m not sure if it’s a body image thing or if she thinks I would get jealous of her showing too much skin. Is there a way to ask? My dumbass teased her about her glasses one time as a joke and she stopped wearing them. I think glasses look cute on her I was just trying to be flirty but I fucked it up. So I need to go about this where it doesn’t come off as being malicious.

If you girlfriend was struggling with finding a proper fitting swimsuit at the last moment in Hawaii, it might be a one-off thing. You could try following up with her and ask if she wants to try shopping for a swimsuit/check out a few boutiques.
Telling her that you like her boobs wouldn't be too weird, but in that moment she's probably angry/frustrated with her own body and saying you like her boobs may just annoy her more.

We’re planning a small trip the beginning of next year I’ll just plan ahead better this time. I just want to let her know that I like her the way she is.
