English has the seamstress/prostitute connotation too but it's too antiquated for most people to know about. In my language it's contemporary slang. FML

I'd prefer a solution that doesn't involve me pissing off someone above me in the food chain.
The most annoying thing about people making stupid unfunny jokes over and over and over is that they all think they're supa lolarious and when I don't crack a convincing enough smile their feefees get hurt. I'm pretty sure I've been called a bitch with no sense of humour several times behind my back.

iktf anon, I play a concert whistle and the amount of "I'd like you to blow MY whistle" and blowjob gestures
Doesn't help that the terminology is very suggestive as well
>fingering chart

I bought a T-shirt with a huge Freud picture on it just for the occasions when I have to practice whistling. I don't know if it'll help but making fun of it yourself usually keeps the comments at bay.

You're at a stalemate, what you do is gain a little again, and then start losing it. It's because you're body has become used to the routine just like when you work with weights, the old ones do nothing for you so you have to go with bigger weights.

Why don't you just make friends where you're currently at?

And the people you meet online probably genuinely like you; they probably don't secretly despise you at all. The thing with internet communications is that it's extremely easy to cut off all contact with someone-- if someone doesn't enjoy making conversation with you, they wouldn't speak to you. The fact that you can come home and chat with them for hours on whatever online communication device you guys use is proof that you enjoy each other's company.

Cheer up and go make some new friends, but keep your internet friends too.

Honestly, I was hoping you'd post a location so I'd just say "Wow, me too! Too bad I wouldn't want to be friends with a fucking loser like you." but never mind. I hope you have a good day.

I was wondering if that might be the case.
I started at 78 kg (170 lbs?) and dropped to 72 kg (157 lbs?) in the span of a year.
So, I lost it rather slowly...I think...
I cut down on food portions and started going to the gym four times a week.
Being stuck 20 kg away from my goal is just so frustrating.

I just wanna be kinda cosplay popular but I can never bring myself to promote shamelessly and buy likes/followers. I also know that I should focus on my college projects this year more than cosplay but the satisfaction I get when someone likes my photo on instagram is addicting. If I think about it deeply it's probably because I had such low self esteem when I was younger that this attention feels good.

Not really a deep feel but it's one that nags me often.

I sent her a fairly detailed list of second hand stores, shopping services, brand names & direct web shop links. I doubt that'll do anything, though. I only have one class with her, so I tried showing her a few gothic lolita coords to show her what to actually look for.

At least now I can easily change hair color, I guess... Finally have all those crazy blues and pinks in daily life. No more problems with stuffing hair under a wig. Fuck knowing this doesn't make me feel better at all. I want to keep my hair. At least what little is left of it.

You could get a cheap door mirror and some 3M sticky painting back things (for large paintings). The door mirrors are usually really light and are totally fine on a wall - I had to do that because my door was too tight in the frame to have the normal hooks over the door, and the way I had my furniture meant the mirrored bit kept hitting the edge of the dresser when the door opened anyway.

Doing what you love as a job can be a double-edged sword.
The deadlines, stress, oftentimes dealing with shitty customers.. it can turn your dream into a nightmare real fast if it's not something you absolutely love 10000% and beyond and are willing to work every single day for.
And even then, it may still burn you out.

I've seen people start and then quit not even 2 months later because they can't handle the pressure and demands.

But, if you're really serious, here's what you do:
>Keep your day job and do cosplay commissions on the side.
>Take 1 or 2 smaller, less complicated commissions at a time.
>ONLY take things you know you can manage. When in doubt of your skills, decline it. I'm fucking serious. This is where a lot of people fuck up.
>figure out your limits with deadlines and things of that nature. Can't really handle it? Quit now. Ready to power forward, though? Keep reading.
>Built your portfolio. Don't take shit photos in your messy bedroom. Take time and effort to make shit look good. Even not particularly good costumes can look nice if you photograph it well. No need to be a pro, but, like I said, put effort into it. SUPER IMPORTANT.
>raise prices every few months as your work gets put out there [assuming it's good/great]
>wait until your work in recognized within cosplay circles and there is a demand for it.
>this WILL take well over a year to do. May even take 2 years. Don't expect to quit your job for a while.
>Recalculate costs once your work is out there.
>Raise your prices to a place where you can live off commissions.

That's the simplified version.
Seriously, if it's really something you want to do, then good luck, anon!

Growing up, a friend's mom had alopecia. None of us ever knew until someone inquired why she had a ton of wigs in her room. There is a local charity here that helps people who have permanently lost eyebrows by tattooing them on. I thought that was the worst idea ever, but I had never noticed that my friend's mom had them.

Honestly, there have been exact situations in my comm where I've felt pressured to agree that "cgl is bitchy" but I know that myself and at least two other girls browse here. It's severely awkward for us.

And as it turns out, the girl who was leading the tirade against cgl was actually secretly browsing here too. Because one day someone bitched about her without dropping her name, but she *somehow* discovered the exact post, figured it was about her (though she couldn't prove it was her specifically), and posted the link on her facebook bitching about it.

There is this girl in my comm:
She is white and very palid. Dresses some pastel kei thing and wants to be mod of the Lolita comm. Never goes to meets, if she does she never looks away of her phone because efamous. She also draws gay girls with darker skin kissing with white girls. Her girls are also kind of chubby.
She is in Tumblr. Hates cgl and btb.
She once tried to implement mascots in the group that were furries, one with dark skin so "girls of every color can relate to it".
She talks a lot about politically correct and include everyone.

I have dark skin. She pisses me off everytime she is trying to defend (or not "oppress" the dark skinned girls).

She has a fairly good skill in drawing. Now selling prints.

At first I liked her drawings, but after experiencing her eager need of defending "the weak group" (dark skin, fatty chans), it pisses me off everytime I see how much better she is at drawing.

I felt like that even before I got into lolita. I have this skirt that's about mid-thigh and while it's really flattering when I'm standing up I'm constantly worried that I'm flashing everyone when I walk or sit down. I haven't been able to find any kind of safety shorts that don't show through in some way (it's very fitted around the hips so you can see the seams) so I mostly just wear dark tights with it and hope nobody cares to look into my abyss-crotch...

I think I get where you're coming from. That shit is super patronizing and it seems like she's just using a marginalized group as a prop to earn good-guy points for herself. I'm ~*straight white cis scum*~ but I have a disability and any time someone goes all overzealous pre-school teacher on me I try my best to stay polite while explaining to them that I don't want or need them to swoop in and save me from the world. Usually they respond with "w-well you don't speak for all [people with disability] s-so whatever!" but I like to think I'm helping to whittle away at their SJW mentality at least a little bit. At some point they'll mature a bit and realize that disadvantaged people are not all fragile babbus who need our hands held 24/7. I hope.

I'm starting to think "disapproving black normalfag" is a meme because I just got finished having a conversation with one of my weeb friends only to turn around and see a guy staring at us.

We were being mostly quiet and we were wearing normal clothes. I wasn't sure if he was just staring or mad, but if the latter it would be really unreasonable since we were in a café area where it gets loud all the time.

I've also read a lot of stories here involving black guys and handling lolita weirdly. I guess anime culture is just befuddling to some people?

You missed the part where I have a doctor's appointment set up. I've also been to the doctor's three times in the past month and they've all given me different meds for different diseases, so it seems like they don't even know wtf I have wrong with me. Also, it's been lasting over two months, the nausea is gone, the initial ear infection is gone and they've drained (or so I've been told), and extreme inner ear damage/dysfunction can actually cause anxiety and depression, which in turn, causes other things to happen. This is BEYOND an ear infection.
I'm not googling to self diagnose and then completely disregard the doctor, I'm doing it to try and see if my doctor and I can figure out together wtf is going on with me, since clearly after three visits, we both have no fucking clue.

Stroke-like migraines, anon. They can last for weeks.

Though you should get checked out for real stroke at this point, I get stroke-like migraines and cluster headaches, the migraines cause mad visual disruptions, the tingling and numbness (usually on one side of the body, sometimes both) and my tinnitus gets 1000x worse. The shaking is likely a side effect of the anxiety.

I'm fairly certain it did not. A recorder would be a lot higher pitched and have a different tone to it. On top of that my whistle is made of metal while recorders are wooden or plastic. The sound quality would differ significantly and you'd be hard pressed to get a child to play the low d properly. Plus, the fingering technique in a lot of the songs is a lot more complex than what you play at school and a child could definitely NOT play it properly.
Don't try to debate me on this.

My husband caught me posting about my /d/ fetishes in the thread about what other boards you go to, and I got so embarrassed I actually had the knee jerk response to slap/push him away. I felt awful and he was very surprised, it just came right out of me without me even thinking about it. Urgh. He's aware of my fetishes so it's not like it's new information to him (plus I have a Fetlife with them publicly listed), but the fact he caught me typing it up just made me so overwhelmingly embarrassed. Later he apologized for looking at my screen when I had it tilted towards me and I apologized for going crazy and slapping him.

Just being caught in the act of typing it out, there's something about that, that just makes you super uncomfortable.

I'm not going to lie, he's caught me in /d/ as well and I had the same embarrassed reaction. Your story makes me feel a lot better about the whole situation, glad to know its normal to instinctively hide what you're doing on 4chan

I can afford it but worry I'll regret it later. Most people in my life are super frugal and think I'm insane for even considering paying more than €50 on something like a pair of boots, and I have this little voice in the back of my head constantly telling me that I don't need any of this and I'm being a terrible spendthrift and why am I not saving this money to buy a house or fund the college education of my completely non-existent progeny instead?

There was this pair of beautiful red shoes I really wanted a few years ago. I tried them on in the shop and my foot really hurt, thanks to a long-standing problem. I thought that could be the end of it, and I'd stop thinking about them and just move on. I thought there'd be plenty more red shoes in the world.

But I'm still in love with these goddamn shoes.

Oh God, this happened to me (only it was a friend of a friend of my little sis, not a sister of a friend). I got my sister to send her the link to Bodyline as an alternative to eBay and she still managed to pick the most ita dress, despite being told to stay out of "seperates". She was going to be with our group the whole day so I nearly (reluctantly) lent her one of my Bodyline dresses (which she didn't think was lolita enough because it wasn't black and white, grrr), but thankfully she dropped out of the con trip anyway.

I've had long hair all my life and I could only braid it when it was long enough to bring the plait round the front while doing it. Still can't do tight braids like French braids starting at the back of the head. (In my defense, my hair is a lot thicker than normal people's, which makes it slightly trickier - if I split my hair into two plaits, each one will be thicker than an average person's when putting all their hair on one plait)

Is your appointment with your primary care physician or a ears, nose, and throat doctor, anon?

If it is with your primary care physician, ask for a referral to a specialist. If your doctor doesn't want to, consider calling yourself.

Ringing and shakes are signs of possibly a sinus or inner ear infection. (You could have a sinus infection without a runny nose, especially if it is located in the sinus under the brain.)

I wouldn't worry and would wait it out... but if you start clocking a fever, go to the E.R. You could honestly be getting meningitis if that ringing continues.

I don't know, I'm mixed-race myself and I think the way this type of person makes me uncomfortable isn't what they do, it's how they make a fucking big deal out of it and act like it's a special effort. You know? Like I like it when cutesy mascots and, well, anything is inclusive and diverse, but when someone makes a big deal about the fact they ~chose~ to make their work ~diverse~ it sounds like they're just patting themselves on the back. Like they don't need to explicitly point out that they've made the mascots diverse to include everyone, it just sounds like they're trying to go "look how good I am!" and act like it's a big effort and special thing to do. They mean well, but their need for constant validation is greater than their desire to actually help people without making a big deal about how charitable they're being.

It might partly be the tumblr hugbox mentality though. My sister browses tumblr a lot and I've noticed that she'll praise shows/things heavily for stuff that I'd just not criticize them for? Like, I'll complain if a show has a really/unrealistically given the setting white cast, and say nothing if the cast just has the usual tokens, and praise when they have well-handled and nuanced characters. (Maybe I'm just salty and bitter, IDK.) But my sister acts like shows deserve to be praised to high heaven just because they had one non-white character who wasn't a walking stereotype, which I think she gets off Tumblr's hugboxy culture. Your friend probably expects to be praised for the same reason; she's seen people get asspats for including diversity and thinks she should be asspatted for the same.

I'm seriously considering doing some sort of horticulture, gardening or even tree surgery apprenticeship, but if it leads to a full-time career it won't be compatible with my frills at all. The idea of spending every day in dirty jeans and fleece jackets doesn't appeal to me, but even nice regular clothes aren't suitable for heavy digging. It's such a shallow concern but if I end up working a lot of hours, not being able to wear even vaguely nice things would really bother me.

It was pretty good when I had properly long hair, but I prefer it at shoulder/collarbone length now and it's now not physically long enough to plait because each plait is so fat that you only get like, two turns in before you're at the end of the hair. Better than having really thin hair, but it'd be nice to be in the middle.

It's not a rational thing so much as a "wow I am a terribly irresponsible person for spending money on myself instead of others" thing. Plus education isn't exactly free here - we get government help but its not nearly enough to cover the cost of the program, books and other materials, travel expenses or living expenses. The only reason I'm financially comfortable while studying is because my parents saved up for my education when I was little. My boyfriend didn't get financial help from his parents and is now several thousand euros in debt. But I'm aware it's still a lot better than in the US.

Of course my potential future children don't even exist yet so setting up a fund for them while I'm still in school myself would be silly. I'm just the kind of person who always feels guilty for spending money on myself, especially when it's something "vain" like clothing or makeup.

Basically what >>8059953 said. If your cosplaying just to get lots of attention, your doing it for the wrong reasons. Instead of constantly being on the hunt for people to take your picture and compliment you, look for people who like the show your cosplaying from and talk to them about it. You can also compliment other people on their costumes and start conversations about crafting. Those are what cosplay used to be about before everything was an attention contest.

I know that feel, anon. People's attitude to the legitmacy of hobby spending is weird too; when I was younger, my parents didn't like it if I spent all my Christmas money on clothes, but were totally fine if I spent it all on CDs or going out to the cinema or some shit, which to me is really weird because you need clothes (and might as well have nice ones), but CDs and expensive trips out definitely aren't an essential item. It's the same now I'm a student - people always ask how I can spend so much on clothes and it makes me feel bad, but they spend just as much on drinking, concert tickets, sound equipment or band/anime merch, all of which I'd also class as hobbies. Maybe I just move in really musical circles. I mean, at least lolita won't fuck up my liver.

She's been to a doctor more than once.

You know you're not supposed to just let the doctor tell you what's wrong every time, right?

If I did that, every time I was ill at all I'd be given an antibiotic and sent on my way. I went in with what ended up being a rare genetic disorder umpteen times, "oh you're fine, take an advil, it'll go away," for six months straight.

I had to do my own research and present it to the doctors for them to even consider that it might be something other than "nothing."

I'm just saying it's not a difficult instrument to play.

Anyone who's played any instrument can hold the beat and read the music, (yes I'm aware there are differences in percussion music, but they're easy to pick up on) and a week or two of practice with the instrument will let you learn the sweet spot.

There's a reason they give the triangle to the retarded kids in high school band.

1- it doesn't make a HUGE difference
2- it's easy as shit to play decently.

As someone who gets around 12-16 per week in retail and doing my final semester in grad, bullshit. Unless you're $15/hr. All my money goes towards bills and food. Can I save up? Yes, but that takes weeks. It's more sensible for me to put it on credit and pay increment amounts, which is essentially what I'd be doing anyway.

He's probably just insecure because he realizes that he'll need to go back to school to get those covetous, high paying STEM jobs he (and others like him) fantasized about getting as soon as they were done with undergrad. Don't look at this as something you're doing wrong, because it's not really related. Either way he should get a full time job if he's not in school at the moment, there's no excuse for that.

Yeah, research helps. (sage for blog)

I went to the doctors...five? times over a two-year period with mysterious frequent vomiting/nausea.

1st doctor sent me for some blood tests and a stool sample, turned out I was slightly anaemic but nothing else was wrong, so he implied the vomiting was self-induced in front of my mother and sent me away.

2nd doctor repeated the same tests and said there was nothing physically wrong with me (although at least he didn't imply I was bulimic), but maybe it was stress-induced (even though I wasn't stressed) and prescribed me anti-nausea pills.

Went back again requesting a referral to a dietician because the pills didn't help with the nausea and it four pills a day is a lot, got told it was probably psychosomatic and to try taking them for longer (later found out that one of the medicines was only supposed to be prescribed for 3 months at a time because of side-effects and they had me on that shit for like a year).

4th time, same thing.

Went back a fifth time, new doctor actually listens when I say the pill I'm supposed to take one of in the morning wears off by the afternoon and the pill I'm being prescribed three of a day doesn't do shit, tells me to take the former only when I actually feel sick and takes me off the latter. Still can't find a diagnosis and instead blames stress and refers me to mental health services with suspected anorexia because this had made me lose appetite and weight.

Eventually, a friend suggested I was lactose intolerant when I threw up immediately after having a milkshake. Tried cutting milk out of my diet for a week and felt loads better. Turns out the 6+ cups of milk tea I was having on some days (like an idiot, I didn't record drinks in the food diary I tried using) were what was causing most of the nausea. It isn't the sole cause, since I still get random and stress-induced vomiting (just once every month or so not once every couple of days), but it was 90% of it.

I'm in the UK, student loans are a fixed amount depending on household income (also get written off after 30 years), so I don't choose how much loan money I apply for (it's all or nothing) so it's the same amount of debt whether I buy my relatives Christmas presents or not. Besides which, I wouldn't call Christmas frivolous. It's not like I spent a ton of money on it (~£5 per person), but all my relatives would be ridiculously offended if I didn't get them at least a token thing. Since they know I'm a poorfag student, they spend a more on me than I do on them. If I didn't get them anything they wouldn't get me anything and I'd lose money long term from having to buy my own bicycle/kettle/saucepans/whatever.

I could probably stand to adjust my budget though. The only reason buying presents didn't leave me in debt is because I'd originally planned a few quid a week in savings, which is what I used for Christmas, but I ought to be able to afford Christmas and a safety net. Can probably take money out of my food budget; I know I can eat reasonably healthily for about half what I budgeted.

As to jobs, I've applied for a lot but got nowhere so far, mainly due to lack of previous paid work experience (if shops are gonna hire inexperienced workers, they hire high schoolers they can pay a lower wage). I've done charity shop work but most companies don't give a shit about that (in high school I lived in buttfuck nowhere and shops don't tend to want to hire people that live two hours away).

This. There are plenty of graduates who work minimum wage because they haven't got a non-shit job yet, but it's not because they're refusing to apply for positions other than their perfect one. Companies are way more likely to hire you if you're currently working than if you're unemployed, and graduate-level jobs are more likely to hire you if you're in fulltime office work of some kind than if you're in retail, even if it's shitty office work (works even better if it counts as experience in that field, but in my experience just having a "proper" job is enough, even if it's as irrelevant as retail would be). Even if his perfect job comes up he might not get it if his current job isn't in a similar field.

How many $78 dollar dresses do you see on Lacemarket, that aren't overpriced Bodyline? It's easy for an idiot newbie to look on there and just see $200 dresses and assume they're all like that, because cheaper stuff takes time to find.

Actually I take that back, I forgot EU prices were inflated because of our stupid taxes. Filtering to Dresses, in the US, and under $78 there's only three active results, but one of them is a BtSSB item.

It's easy to talk bullshit about how programming pays a lot, but really the salaries as a code monkey in tech firms are often much lower than just working in sales or marketing for the same firm. My uncle used to do programming and now works as a trainer for a big firm. What was his most recent job? Travelling to India to train coders there because they're outsourcing all the coding work.

Looking for dresses under 90USD there are 92 results found. Even if there's Bodyline, most of those dresses come around 40-50USD, and it would still look better than the dress I was shown.

Regardless, I offered to help if she was confused at all. Do you have a better alternative to suggest? Should I just sit back and watch someone throw 78 dollars to a scam site?

Oh God that page. I saw it recommended to me but checking it just depressed me. When I went on there, I read 20-25 posts, of which two were actually what I'd consider good, 3 or 4 not amazing but okay, and the rest absolutely shit. So much of the stuff on there is genuinely awful. I can barely sew a cushion cover, although I'm trying to learn, and even I can tell not only that their stuff is shit but exactly what mistakes they're making most of the time. What's depressing is that the stuff getting fucked up is easy shit, like simply not putting enough material in the skirt. Any idiot should be able to realise what they've done wrong but they don't seem to.

I suppose Lacemarket's a pretty good suggestion. Since all the newbie's I've met have seemed to want black and white, I usually just send them the links to some decent Bodyline pieces, and then with people who want real lolita I offer to do a Taobao order with them (since if left to their own devices, they tend to totally under/overestimate how much to expect in fees or shipping) but for someone who genuinely likes lolita fashion Lacemarket is good because it's a lot easier to use than Taobao-with-a-SS or the EGL Comm Sales. The place I was surprised to see recommended to a newbie was the Facebook sales; in my experience, they have a much less robust feedback system than either Lacemarket or EGL, and they're where most of the scammers, Bodyline scalpers and replica-chans seem to live now, so I'm surprised to see them recommended to a newb.

tbh learning COBOL guarantees you a goddamn well-paid job because it's true that almost everyone who's skilled in it is going to retire soon and most of big IT systems are still running on top of a huge COBOL based entity because it's an effective language to make numerous calculations without much memory resources. But nobody wants to learn an ancient low-level programming language just to have a chance to upkeep millions of lines of code written over the time span of 30-40 years so when all the old COBOL masters are retiring, everyone is getting screwed so you will be paid well if you know the language at this time and age.

It isn't if you're willing to pay. The cheapest clothes they're clearing out are of inferior quality, but if you buy from a brand name for a higher price you're going to get higher quality as well.

I have never in my life met someone I like. I always seem to be surrounded by the shittiest stupidest people. Like....always. It's been this way for as long as I can remember. I'm some kind of moron beacon, they seek me out and despite my best efforts to stay the fuck away from them, they try to get close to me.

I try to keep to myself as much as humanly possible. I can go months without leaving the house and yet THEY FIND ME. And get stupidly angry and malicious when I don't want to hang out. I don't know what's wrong with me? I've reached a point where I'm afraid to even offer friendly smiles at strangers lest they be shitty morons. And it sucks because I almost can't help it. Its in my nature to be stupidly nice.

But I seriously just want to be left the fuck alone. I like being alone it's nice, quiet, drama free and a fantastic alternative to being with morons. BUT THEY FIND ME. I've deleted all social media hoping to ward off "friends" but when you run around dressed like a lunatic (lolita) it's hard to keep people away, specially if you can't be rude. And you know, there's always that small glimmer of hope you'll meet someone cool. But at this point I feel like anyone who even speaks to me probably isn't.

I had this problem in the past but after 2 years of not returning a single crazy person's text most of them got the hint. For one it literally took 2 years of her texting me "Do you hate me :'( " at 2am every night (WHEN I NEVER GAVE HER MY NUMBER) before she gave the fuck up. I was too much of a weenie to directly tell her to fuck off but she was a very vocal psycho so... There's still this one girl who will message me the moment I unblock her so I just no longer feel bad about leaving her blocked forever.
I was kind of isolated for that last year but I made normal cool friends who I do lolita shit with now so things are good. Just hang in there.

But there's isn't. The problem is I don't like anyone, and even though I never tell them they eventually figure it out by how much I avoid them and start to hate me.

Also the average person has lots of drama in their life. I understand that being a friend entails listening to that etc. And I will sit there and listen to it, without complaint and offer any help I can think of. But I don't enjoy it. I also dont care fir gossip. I think its one if those things that entails you actually liking the person in order to be able to bare? I can't do that more than once every other month at most!

I'm sorry about the pointless novel, I just need to vent.

And that's why. The only people who will ignore the "leave me alone" vibes you put out are people who are too socially stunted to notice them in the first place.

Get a therapist.
Even if you prefer solitude there's no logical reason that people trying to be friendly towards you should be making you this angry.
And if you could just be honest and tell them that you don't care to have friends. They'll think you're a bitch, but ahem...

I kind of sympathize with you because I hate being involved in drama and I've experienced enough emotionally abusive or overall shitty friends to keep my distance when meeting new people. I'm really wary of letting anyone close to me and probably come off as rude because if someone I don't like messages me, I don't reply or reply in a very blunt manner. I don't want people I can't stand in my life and I couldn't care less if they thought I'm a uptight bitch, but then they start causing drama about me being a prissy asshole who thinks their shit doesn't stink because I don't reply to their messages. I'm sorry, I just really want to pick my own friends and you're not making it better by trying to force yourself into my life.

I wanna throw out like 80% of my tshirts and old casual wear stuff and just replace it with axes femme and ozz on and the like. Then I'll have no choice but to dress nicely and not look like a mess all the time, right? And some of that stuff's been in service for over half a decade now, it's super worn out.

This is a justifiable use of my money, yes, and not frivolous spending

I went through this whole period of time in my teens when I went out a lot more than I wanted thinking that's what would lead to meeting cool people. I just ended up meeting a shit ton of shitty people.

They don't make me angry until they get bitter about us not hanging out. Before that, they just bore me maybe annoy me a bit. I always thought there was more to friendship than "s/he's nice to me"?

Well that's kind of your fault for not explaining that you don't like to hang out.

I hate to tell you this but other people can't read your mind and know your expectations. And unfortunately for you, a quality found in a good chunk of friendships is the ability to be oneself and let go of pretention. It just sounds to me that you don't communicate enough for some reason.

This always seems to happen to me too. And I've ended up putting up a lot if walls, and keeping to myself a whole lot more. Since when that kind of stuff happens they tend to drag anything they know about you through the mud, they more they know the more they whine. So then I don't share much when trying to meet people and that probably hinders the process of finding friends. I tend to hide certain hobbies etc.

>I just really want to pick my own friends and you're not making it better by trying to force yourself into my life.

Yes exactly!

No, you miss understand. They figure out that I don't want to hang out and get bitter and malicious. And that happens with just about everyone. The second they figure out they're not your cup of tea they get angry, bitchy etc and that makes ME angry.

Well why shouldn't they be bitter? They wasted their time attempting to get to know you, and then they (correctly) presume that you're judging them and they get angry. If you're not telling them upfront, seriously like the first conversation, that you're not a people person and you don't socialize then you can't blame them for their reactions. They have a right to feel that way, because evidently some girl thinks they're "dumbasses."

Talk to a therapist. I don't believe everyone you've ever met was a 100% retard.

But I do tell them it's one if the first things out of my mouth. So there goes your argument.

And I mean fuck, what about ME. I'm disappointed I wasted my time too, probably a lot more than them seeing since I literally have no friends and going out is a huge effort for me. but you don't see me getting so butthurt that we don't click that I start bad mouthing and being a pissbaby.

P.S. You're a moron and can now join the rest of the morons I don't like.

I got my ears pierced when I was a year old (inb4 child abuse or whatever) and I still can't wear dangly earrings.

Actually I haven't worn earrings at all in a while, so if I tried they'd probably get all irritated and gross.

Do you have any experience of shoes from YesStyle (specifically boots)? I'm in the market for a new pair of non-lolita boots, hopefully brown ones that could be used for mori, and I've seen stuff on YesStyle in the past that fits that description but no-one I know has bought from them before.

I'm not sure anon. I tried something similar to this and it was almost a disaster. I did cut down how often I wore lazy stuff, but when I did have lazy days or got sick, I ended up literally wearing the same 1-2 outfits over and over again, which was a bit gross because they weren't getting adequately washed. But my mistake might have been going too extreme; if you still keep a week's worth of casual clothes around you won't have that problem.

I think a good middle ground is to ruthlessly rid yourself of anything that's old, worn out or the wrong size, and then edit the remaining casual wardrobe down until it all matches each other easily. But it's hard to give advice without knowing how many pieces you currently have in your casual wardrobe; maybe you should do a rough count?

Not really cgl related, but a serious feel I need to get off my chest.

>Be me at home with day off. Clean house, do laundry, prepare dinner and make sure I'm sexy for my man when he gets home from work.
>He gets home, sick as fuck, and collapses on the bed. Seems he caught the flu.
>Spend 3 days taking care of him. Got him fresh fruit, juice, soup, tissues and medicine. I make him tea and hot cocoa.
>by day 3 I am sick myself . Body aches, congestion, etc. We play games in blankets all night together before bed.
>day 4 I am full blown sick. He's feeling better. Now the first thing he does in the morning is start a fight with me over a bill. He then gets super aggravated with my whining about him doing this to me now that I'm sick after everything I did for him.
>Says he's gonna go do two quick things and come back
>gone for 4 1/2 hours
>severe crying ensues due to feeling like he just doesn't fucking care.
>finally comes back, informs me he is going to his friend's birthday party with or without me the next night.
> gets offended when I tell him it would make me sad and again, all I did for him.
>I tell him he can go, just to keep peace, secretly hoping he'll turn around and stay with me.
>Be party tonight. He is gone. I am in bed alone, sick and crying.

From your point of view he sounds pretty cold. Though, I think you should be more honest with him about how you want him to comfort you, even if he does protest. If he doesn't give you a legitimate reason for not wanting to be with you when you're sad and sick, then shit son, you can do better than that.

I think you're being a little bit unreasonable, but so is he.

His friend's birthday IS only once a year, but he should have been taking care of you these past few days.

Like, "Oh sweetie you've been so great taking care of me I don't really mind if you go to the party," it shouldn't be "thanks for completely ignoring me while I've been sick after I fawned over you."
