I don't know what you call one of these moments/time in your life but I've recently come to accept that I don't have anyone who truly cares about me in this world. I don't even mean love and whatnot just family members that actually care and friends that are suppose to be there for you and genuinely want to hang out with you. I just feel that people around me are so selfish - it's always "what's in it for me?" Can't anyone do things out of the goodness of their hearts? Or just to help out?

My family members literally don't feel the need to talk to me unless they need me to do something for them. When I try to strike up a conversation they tell me to shut it or give me short answers to try to end the conversation. Whenever I need help on something I always feel the need to find something of equivalent trade for them to help me if not then they won't help.

I feel like such an extra in my group of friends that I've known for almost my whole life (or at least half for some). One of my oldest friends has somehow adapted this way of talking to me in a super condescending way in the past couple of years and it really hurts. My other old bff has zero time for me now that she has a bf, her life literally revolves around him and she's attached to him at the hip even after like 2 years of dating. My college friends and I use to go out a lot but after everyone got bfs/gfs nobody ever tries to hangout any more. I've tried to ask one of the ones I use to be really close with to hang every time I'm in her area but she'll always have some sort of excuse not to.

I get that I'm not super fun or exciting to be around but I'm always willing to try new things that they want to do because I know that's what makes them happy but they are never willing to do the same for me. All but one basically bailed on my birthday this year and every year there's something - they either complain about the date or where we go etc... I do whatever the hell they want to do on their birthdays, is it that much to expect them to just be okay with what I choose? I always choose something reasonable whereas they pick some crazy expensive restaurant. They actually will tell me to choose a cheap place when I'm the only one who ever chooses a decent place that won't burn a hole in our wallets.

>cosplay related
Almost the only reason we meet up now is to do cosplay stuff but even then I'm a noob compared to them because a few started when they were younger and one has had all the time in the world to work on a few since she took like one class per semester and that has given her an ego boost on her skills. The latter looks down on me and doesn't give my opinions a second thought unless one of the other ones agree with me. She'll give me useless advice like "oh you should start now you know" or "you better get this done...like now". I go to school 5 days a week from 9-4 and have to wake up at 6:30 to get ready and commute, come home to do homework. I'm sorry that I don't only have to go to one 2 hour lecture per week. I have this horrible anxiety about feeling like deadweight with them so I really do try to pull my weight if we are doing something together but the way that one talks to me just makes me feel so shit.

>> No.7632986

>>7632981
(3/3)
I try not to let this shit get to me but in the past month it's just been so apparent that I haven't built any relationships where someone can just be a good friend to me and honestly care instead of trying to get something from me. During the year when we're all busy my group of friends can literally not talk to each other for weeks and when one does finally talk to me it's because they want me to lend them something or do something for them. I don't mind helping and I like that I can finally see them...but it's sort of sad when it hits me that they never just want to chill with me and catch up.

I know most people just think "hey anon, just ditch them and go make new friends" but it's just so hard for me idk I've made new friends that could've potentially blossomed into better friendships but everyone tends to get too busy for me or they find out that I don't want to get with them so I get ditched eventually.

I'm sure that somewhere in all this is just because I'm not that interesting of a person to be around. I mean I'm a nice person but probably pretty boring inside and out and at this point in my life it's probably too late to change that. idk I apologize that this is so stupidly long.

Of course it's difficult.

I am really considering just leaving lolita because it makes me feel like a fat piece of shit. I am not even that big, it's mainly my boobs, but the last 5 or so dresses that i have bought have not fit me and it makes my already low self esteem plummet. I get so excited for dresses in the mail and when they arrive i get so depressed. But even if i leave i know that i will be just as depressed if not more because i let something that i love go. I hate myself and i hate that it's so hard for me to lose weight. I just want to be pretty and thin and to fit into my dresses.

The most intimidating part is that, compared to other cosplays, redoing a section is such a money sink. If I make a mistake on a schoolgirl miniskirt, it's not much to buy more fabric. If I screw up a layer on this goddamn planet of a dress, I might just have to wait a few more paychecks before I can continue.

What was that hobby you started up? Maybe learning it would be a good thing to focus your mind on. Make sure you keep talking to people and going out.

How would a scam like this even work? Of course the victim would open a dispute. The only way I can think of working this as a scam is to try and pin the buyer as a scammer, saying that everything was in there and the buyer must be lying.

I don't see any harm in that. I'd rather a seller come out and tell their side of the story than just silently send the dress out. It makes her look better than a scammer, yeah, which is a good thing if that's how she actually looks. "Trying to make yourself look better" is only a bad thing if you're making yourself look better than you actually are. If it's the reality, it's just clarification.
This story is not out of place in a feels thread anyway. If she's a frequent seagull and is used to relaying her strong jfash feels here, this is certainly a feely feel to share. If I was her I'd want feedback from anons telling me whether or not I did the right thing in how I handled the mistake.
I'd be annoyed if she was saying, "Guys, it was just a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. Look look, I'm sending it out right now, calm down." But she's embarrassed, which is good.

It sounds like you're implying she didn't send out the dress on purpose.

But I literally got it on the final week I needed to find one before becoming on-the-street homeless, because even though I was offering 6 months of rent up front and guarantors, no landlord would touch unemployed me.
What is wrong with these people, it's a fuck ton of money right?! What's the problem, they think that having a minimum wage job automatically makes you a sane tenant?

Yeah, no, seriously the whole story. Literally the only thing I said to her was, "umm, I was sitting there". I didn't even say it in any sort of tone or anything, I was more just surprised she was there when I walked in. I didn't even see her or speak to her for the rest of the day.

Apparently she was sick of everyone being so mean to her. We were all told early on to be nice to her though because she was older and didn't really fit in with the other staff, so everyone pretty much just avoided her, and tried to just blow her off when she tried to argue with them. Which she did a lot, she wasn't very nice herself.

Go look at the photos in that thread. That's exactly what it looks like she did. There were plastic bags, a random receipt, and an empty mailer in the packaging. It looks like she put padding/fluff into the box to make it seem heavier than it really was, but got caught.

Quite frankly, I'm glad that the buyer named and shamed, because even if it was just an accident, I wouldn't want to buy from someone stupid enough/flaky enough to forget to pack the main item I'd purchased.

It looks like she was preparing a bunch of packages and didn't complete one of them. Plastic bags won't add to the weight. If there were random weighted objects in there, I'd believe your theory a little easier. It just seems like you're jumping too quick to tar and feather after the situation has been resolved. Pass over her for negligence if you want, but trying to paint her as malicious just isn't cool.
I'd imagine that she'll actually be overly careful in the future from the embarrassment. If she had a history of careless mistakes, I'd put her on my no-buy list, sure. But considering how easily rectified this one was and her previous 100% feedback, I'm not going to avoid buying something I want just from this one scare.

Anons, I have a big problem.
I am literally shit-my-trousers scared around people due to childhood trauma. Like, when I'm talking to someone, girls especially (I'm a straight girl, it isn't THAT kind of nervousness) I get incredibly nervous and feel like I wanna run away. It happens when I talk to doctors, on the phone, to strangers, but is the absolute worst when I talk to girls my age.

I somehow pocket my spaghetti and act normal for the few minutes I have to interact with people, but it's absolutely killing me. I am friendless and get embarrassed about the smallest things and then keep replaying it in my head, and whenever there's someone nearby I always go salad snek and try to sneak past and avoid them somehow.

Have you talked to a therapist? The only thing that has made mine better has been doing that and just trying to talk to people more. I'm really skittish and awkward when I do so, but it's gotten a bit better with time.
Were you bullied as a kid or something? My anxieties generally revolve around me being afraid that people will think I'm weird and reject me.

Well.....that is a rather peculiar and problematic pickle you've presented to us, Patty.

I'd have suggested you have your friends work with you through that little by little, but since you said you're friendless, I'd have to suggest working this out with sympathetic family members that you feel comfortable around. I'd suggest an exposure therapy of sorts. I'd like to work it out with you because I LOVE meeting new people and it would be awesome to me if I managed to get another person to be successfully socially outgoing. But I won't kid myself, I'm no therapist or psychologist or psychiatrist. And I've got my own semi-busy life to take care of.

So... try exposure therapy while with a person you feel comfortable around (have them get you to meet one of their friends, the same person each time and talk with them for spans of time from 10 minutes and moving up from there, giving a reason for you leaving if need be. They shouldn't tell the friend what they're doing so that the situation stays casual.)

>> No.7635101

Shit I never finished my sentence. Try exposure therapy with someone you feel comfortable around or speak to a therapist. They will work with you through the problem. (First suggestion > second).

I have a crippling fear of alcohol and drunk people, and it has been getting worse. Seeing someone drunk stumble down the street can paralyze me with fear, and actually... being near someone that is a 'huggy drunk' can send me spinning into paranoia and can't-leave-the-house terror for days.

Recently, the person I room with has taken up alcohol in the bad way, if there is even a good way and a bad way. I think they are all bad ways. I don't know.

Should I move out just because of this? She isn't violent or anything, but she acts argumentative and nonsensical and completely unpredictable when drunk and it is horrifying. I can't say anything without it being some kind of offense, and I really don't want her to straight up murder me.

What do I do?

You need therapy. Like even if this girl is acting fucked up when drunk, your reactions to a substance that a lot of adults use is crippling. You wont be able to avoid people who drink.

It is also hard to judge how bad she is when you are overreacting to normal drunkiness as is.

Well, that's a tough one. Kumoricon is the older con but could be argued to be slowly getting worse over the years; however, I have no problem with it other than the fact they split the events and panels between two hotels (no convention center). I still find it to be a very fun convention.

Newcon on the other hand has only been running for two years now but is run by some fucking awesome people. They're moving the con to the Double Tree in Portland, which was the best location Kumoricon ever used in 2008. Thus expanding the convention and adding much more content. Keep in mind that Newcon is a pop culture type convention, so it's pretty much an anime/comic/movie/video game convention, not just anime. But I totally recommend it, as it's only getting better each year.

What's your review for Sacanime and Fanime? I've heard Fanime is a good one!

>> No.7635815

thanks! just might have to attend one of those.
sacanime is a lot of fun, partly because there's more of a local feel to it. people are generally really sociable and nice. badges are reasonable, dealers hall is great, overall a really great con imo.
fanime's really great, too. i don't know if you've heard about the previous years' "linecon" but it was horrible. in 2013 i waited in line for 4+ hours prereg. however, i don't know how they did it, but there was literally no line when i picked up my badge this year. anyway, really fun con with lots of cool people. my only complaints are that some of the con is quite spread out (it's partially held at a hotel or two), and i've run into some really creepy guys. basically, don't go alone and it's a great time.

I have never been so self-conscious about my weight as ive been these past couple months. I want to lose weight of course but, I'm pathetic and can't get over the depression and anxiety to go out and work out.

She like wears a 00. Next to her I really am a whale. I'm going to do it either way to make her happy but, I'm feeling really anxious I won't lose the weight by then.

I haven't honestly been shopping at a store in America in a long time as I order most my stuff from Rakuten. I can wear a M in most stuff there though.

I think weight and height would probably be easier to explain. I'm 5'9 and weight about 140 right now. I'm pear shaped so its mostly in my thighs. I'm getting into horse therapy soon to help with some other issues I have so I'm hoping that will be the start to me being able to go outside frequently and moving around as when I was active a couple years ago I was about 120 so 20 pounds lighter.

Yeah they do, she just happens to be very very thin still. I'm just scared of what I'll look like in photos with her. She is 8 years younger than me and only 13 so it's understandable.

I think its mostly me being weirded out because all my life I've been picked on as being the anorexic girl. (I was a stick until I was 18) Now I feel like it's the opposite way around. Sorry if Im incoherent as I have been drinking a little bit tonight.

I really do want to work out though, I think it would be a great way to get ride of my anxieties and anger issues.

One last thing, I think te hardest part would be the dieting part as I said before I was always the stick thin girl who could eat anything but now as I'm getting older you know how your body changes and your metabolism is changing. I need to learn new good habits to get rid of the old bad ones. Thank you for the reply btw.

I know how you feel anon and I'm going to use this opportunity to share my story.
I'm massively tall so I can't afford any extra weight as it shows awfully. I was generously chubby as a kid and when I was about 12-13 (around 5'8-9" then) I had a breakdown to my mum about how much I hated it. I lost about 13-15kg over that summer. I got down to what was a healthy weight range but I still felt fat.
People told me I was looking good which made me feel worse because it meant I did have a problem before.
I'm now 16, 6'1" and I still hate the way I look. I mean I'm not massive and I can hide it pretty well but I'm still cubby, I have amazing long legs and I'm decently attractive so I know if I got down to my goal weight I know I'd look fantastic. I've tried all sorts of diets and exercise but nothing will work as last year I found out I have a hormone problem that will make it an extremely long and difficult process to get to my goal which makes it seem almost unachievable.
I'm not going to my school ball this year because I'm afraid of sticking out like a sore thumb.
>"who let Sasquatch wear a dress"
I'm self conscious all the time, I hate going out with all my friends who are short, cute and skinny. Going clothes shopping is a nightmare, the style that I have and the style that I want are completely different because nothing fits my awkward height, I've been wanting to get into lolita or cosplay cute girls for years.
I know this may seem insignificant to what some of you poor anons are dealing with but I just needed to vent somewhere.

Are you ladies me? My boyfriend was practically made for me, he's so sweet and understanding and smart and we're going to get married and have all the babies and he'll be the best dad etc etc.

But a few days ago this dude, who I had a gigantic raging crush on for years before I met my husbando, asked me to have lunch together. I've only recently started coming out of my shell and the guy just realized we have nearly all of our interests in common and click very well, so now he wants to meet up and nerd out together and be bffs. I have more in common with this guy than anyone else I know (even husbando) and getting close to him could potentially give my career an amazing boost as well.
I want to meet up and just have a good platonic relationship with this guy, but my old feelings are already flooding back in and I feel so guilty just thinking about it. It doesn't help that husbando is (probably) aware that I used to have a crush on this guy and can get a bit jealous sometimes.
I have like no friends right now. This is an opportunity for an amazing new friendship but everything is so complicated because of FEEELINGS ughhhh

Anon I feel the exact same way about drunk people. I guess it's because I have Aspergers and sober people are unpredictable enough for me to deal with, so drunk people are truly terrifying. It doesn't help that public drunkenness is pretty much socially acceptable and "they're just having fun lol whatever cut loose nerd" even when someone is straight up destroying someone else's property. Even if I'm trying to be as neutral as possible in explaining why I don't want to be at a party where people are drinking it's like anyone who doesn't love alcoholic beverages is the devil. People have insulted me over this. I just don't understand it.

Talk to your therapist about it, they can probably help you the best. Irrational or not, if you truly feel unsafe about your own living situation you should be able to do something about it so you can feel safe again. Does your roommate know about your phobia?

Man, I am about to post something with this exact problem. I tried to green text this, but it didn't work. Sorry for the wall of text.

My bf and I have known one another for ages. In high school he was a typical anime/game fan and he even cosplayed a few times. Then, he started hating cons and anything even remotely like that because he didn't want to be lumped in with socially inept people. But, I continued to cosplay because I really like to sew and craft.

He doesn't hate what I do, but if I do things that seem nerdy to him he makes fun of it. He obviously doesn’t go to cons with me anymore which I honestly don’t mind, but he puts down the friends that I go with and I can’t talk about fun things we did there because inevitably he’ll start being judgmental.
Another thing that pissed me off recently was when I was replaying Dragon Age. He made fun of me any time he saw me playing for doing a romance. He romanced someone in that game, too, but no, when I do it, I'm being a pathetic fujoshi? Come ON. I'm getting really sick of it and when I told him that he needs to stop hating everything I like, he laughed it off and thought I was being overdramatic to be funny.
I’m really frustrated at how much of a hypocrite he’s being right now.

I'm thinking that you could get away with most seifuku, lots of touhou characters, and anything that has a big coat. Maybe find some gijinkas and modify them to work around the brace? Most people don't notice anything as most people have no clue about scoliosis.

I have a friend who is similar with cosplay and frequently alters huge elements of costumes because "lol i like it better this way". I've just learned to accept it, have fun with her, but be sure to get photos alone and try to find other people cosplaying the same thing accurately to get photos with them. With everything else, just let it go and know what to expect from her, but for your original idea, try to express your vision fully and get across how important it is for everyone to match. Tell her she can do whatever she wants with the idea on her own time (if that's okay with you), but that you really want her to be aesthetically similar to everyone else just this one time.

Anon with the roommate problems from the last thread.
I'm beginning to worry that my ex-flatmate and the girl who subletted my room (to whom I was introduced by my ex-flatmate) are trying to pull one over on me in some way.
I had arranged for the girl to leave the keys to my apartment in the bottom of the mailbox on the day that she left so that I could pick them up later that day, but when I went to get them, they weren't there. Greentext from here on out because I'm lazy:
>contact flatmate (via SMS) and girl (via email)
>flatmate never responds, girl emails me back a day later
>"I felt weird doing that, anon. I figured I'd mail them back to flatmate"
>never contacted me before changing her mind

>a bunch of my shit (including some dresses I had stored in a closet as well as furniture) still in the apartment
>mfw I'm supposed to be leaving the country in less than a week and need to get that shit out of there
>mfw she wants her security deposit back right away but still has the keys, so I can't even check the condition of the room, not to mention might have to deal with a $350 key charge, since my management company will need to change the outer lock of the house as well as the lock to my apartment and give everyone new keys

I wish I had a group of friends that all got hyped for the same thing.

I always see these groups that are all from the same series and I get so jealous because even poorly done cosplays look so much cooler in a group. Even less favored fandoms like Attack on Titan and Hetalia usually have a group of five or six, and even if their quality is poor, they're a damn group and that's pretty rad in itself.

My group was from the same show once. And it was Gurren Lagann. We have yet to find something else that we all love equally.

If you are quite slim it tends to be like that even though your measurements say you are hourglass.Waist training is a very drastic option for this, you can just look for clothes that highlight the bust to waist diffrence or waist to hips to give you more shape.

Sure!

If I may rant some more, another problem I have is that I really kinda am boring, when you look at it. I don't drink, smoke, I don't like sleeping around, am absolutely allergic to parties and loud music and can honestly see why people avoid me, but it's not something I can help. I feel like that boring aunt everyone has that babysits you every once in a while and has no candy for dessert except prunes.

Also my mum keeps calling me "unladylike", but her idea of "ladylike" is sitting indoors, sipping coffee and talking about haircuts and fashion trends and never lifting a finger. That's fucking dumb.

I'm one of the original anons, and I feel you so badly. I still sometimes crush on my old crushes but I know my boyfriend is dedicated to me, and doesn't even look at other women. It's great for me, but I feel bad for him because I tend to look at other men. I just appreciate though, I never make a move on them. But if the want to compliment me and be nice to me, I'll take it. But again, nothing more than that.

My question to you, anon, is do you think a relationship with this other guy would be better? Because I know after being in this relationship with the perfect guy for years, I do sometimes wish we had more in common than we do now. But I can't exactly force him to like the things I like.

>>7636296
Do it. While your parents may hate it, it'll be a great bonding experience with your sister, and that's all that matters.

>>7636372
Anon, I'm sure you look great in your outfits. Some guys just don't appreciate the style as much as we do, and that's okay. Guys can get freaked out by even the littlest of things because girls have a much broader range of styles and clothing they can wear than guys.

>>7636452

Fucking shit, I did not get fired but I got so much shit when I shattered my leg, I found someplace that did not suck and quit.
I had x rays, doctors notes and a FUCKING HARD CAST. Like really, this cast, it is on my foot, can you not see it you fucking dumb cunt?
I just wanted to have days off for my check ups and shorter hours because wobbling around with a cast for sales was not a fun thing. And they could not do that. I had worked there 2 fucking years and was always in the top five for sales people and they could not give me a fucking day off or a break or two when I needed to shit down. Everywhere else has 10 min breaks, but that place would schedule you 7.5 hours so they could legally get out of giving you a 30 min lunch break ughh.
fuck it has been like 3 years but I am still pissed.
Oh well, I like my job now and I think going for interviews in a cast helped me get job offers.

So best of luck anons.

Sometimes, there's a bit of bleeding that last 1-2 days and is much less than a period, which people can still mistake for a period. If you're having normal periods, you should be all right, but it's always good to check. What form of contraception are you using?

Although, yeah, that is my biggest fear as well. I should have done it when I had the chance but fears of being pregnant is the reason why I'm still a virgin. I'm not really proud of that fact either, especially since around me everyone has seemingly popped their cherry at some point, but eh, life goes on.

Yeah. It's hard to go out with confidence a lot of the time, when your world revolves around the proximity of a bathroom. It's hard not to let that fear control you.
