I want to get into nanchatte but IBS is making that difficult. I just got my first "real" nanchatte skirt today and it destroyed my stomach and I don't think it even looked very good on me. I thought nanchatte was suppose to be comfortable and casual but noooope. Fuck IBS. It made me give up on my Lolita fashion dreams and makes wearing anything remotely dressy or nice impossible.

I feel fat and ugly (and old), too. I hate being me. I'm about ready to give up on alternative fashion because even though I've been into it my entire life, obviously I wasn't fucking meant to be pretty or cute or cool. My wardrobe is a mess, my body is a mess, and I don't even know what I want anymore.

Me too. My ex rommates were all about getting married and giving a birth, they could talk about that all day long. They were so deprecating about every single thing. I moved out, but I feel like that words just stucked in my head. Whenever I see kids around I feel that "why the fuck you don't want them" in my mind. When I look at lolita, I feel them making fun of me or saying I'd better get those for my kid. They fucking poisoned every thing I liked, so I basically don't want anything anymore. I feel nothing, just kinda trying to spend my time the way I can. Being alive is so gross.

Heck, i've been told 'let's get you a girl, anon' before. Not to mention the embarassment i've had when I said something around the lines of 'I don't get girls, so I substitute it with cosplaying' at an event and a bunch of close friends heard it.

These are highly expensive in my area. Plus the spaghetti factory would hit me hard on such an event - and I'd be poorer, since i'd need many more hours to get calm with the escort.

I realize that sex isn't life-changing. Plus, I would not be able to 'live' with myself after hiring an escort.

Dude, I can count in one hand the times i've been intimately close to a girl. Two of these were kisses. The other three were drunk humping on a party I didn't want to go but I was dragged to.

Eh. I've had two long term relationships and one short term fling. Girls really aren't that special unless you find the right one. I guess I can understand where you're coming from, you have this fear that you're missing out on something.

From my perspective, I don't want to have sex with girls all that much unless they're both physically and emotionally attractive, which is a difficult combination to find. Otherwise it's just shitty sex. I'm more keen for holding hands and playing with each others hair. Much, much nicer.

I'm going to turn 20 this July. Yes, I know I am young, but still. I'm constantly regarded as more mature than my true age - i'm part of a international fanclub where people like me a lot - hell, i'm even part of my local group's command chain.

I feel like i've went past a time where I could go on one-night stands and go to parties and kiss a lot of girls, and i've 'missed' a step. The next step would find a nice girl that understands and likes me, but since I never had even the silly teenager things with girls, I feel like i'm missing out. Perhaps i'll never be able to fill that void in my past.

I mean, there's an escort for whatever you want. Dress them up as your fucking waifu or whatever if it makes you feel more comfortable. I'm on the lookout for a girl who matches my waifu's body type just to fulfil some weird fetish shit.

I can't accept that, anons. I am not going to spend a hundred dollars for six hours with someone whose job is having sex. God knows i'm a emotional little fucker so i'm going to get attached to the girl, too. Not to mention i'll probably tell her about my fucked up childhood and teenage years like I do with nearly every girl I meet.

I know my huge curiosity on sex holds me back, but the way I see it, the desperate options don't work - in one end, it's doing fucking nothing. On the other end, it's escorts.

I know that magically I won't get my virginity lost. What I lost is my hope, in a way. I admit the possibility of paying a hooker sometime, but now, I cannot fathom it, anons, do you get me? It's the only tiny bit of honor, and hope, that I still have somewhere.

And thus I am in this sort of existential limbo: while I have the desire to have sex, and to have relationships, I can't have sex or have relationships, and that makes me not want to have sex or relationships - but I have the desire. And it goes on.

You're trapped in a paradox, a virginity ouroboros.

Life doesn't work that way tho, outside of sci fi or really shitty anime you don't get to do a repeat. You gotta focus on the now and the coming soon.

And your now and your coming soon look pretty awful from where I'm standing, you'll keep spinning in your wheels waiting for *something* to come shake you out of it but again, outside of shitty anime that just doesn't happen.

Grab the escorts, hit the gym, start socializing, go to bed at a sensible time, be responsible with your obligations, get yourself in order.

I get where you're coming from, but I'll wait for a real girlfriend who's got prospects of being my wife, thank you very much.

I'm also 19, I have 3 close male friends. Only one of them has lost his virginity. You know what he did because he wanted to have sex? He went on tinder. If you're that desperate, just go on there.
The other 2 will enter their 20s as virgins and neither of them are this spergy about it. It's not that big a deal. My boyfriend lost his virginity to me at age 25.

Heck, i'm going to events full of people at least once or twice a month. It's great to have such a horizon.

Can the pity party and get some attention too please?

I'm not a virgin, but I lost it nonconsensually. For years I deliberately avoided opportunities to have sex and forge relationships out of fear and resentment. It wasn't until recently that I made any effort whatsoever. Upon doing so, I only rekindled my fears and anxieties. I've started booking appointments with therapists in my area, but it sure feels like I'll always be this way.

A girl from my comm recently got herself a new fancy piercing, and I feel so envious. Not for the ring actually, but basically for her being able to enjoy her appearance and adorn herself in different ways. Somehow I gave up on maintaining my own appearance. I feel like no matter what I wear or what kind of make-up I do, that would look so secondary and boring. I just lost my heart for that, so I wear no make-up and dress super plain.

Anyway - Are you getting treated for your anxiety and PTSD? It's not something that's going to go away on its own, and if you visibly shake then it doesn't sound like you have it under control.

Do you have a local comm near you? Have you connected with them on social media?
Most comms have FB pages, I suggest you join them there if you haven't yet, and just take an opportunity to go to their upcoming meetup. While there's always a chance they'll be shitty (you can never really know what people are going to be like), more often than not your anxiety is lying to you and people are actually a lot more forgiving than you might think.

Also, just a tip, in case you do go to a meet and you're self conscious about being visibly anxious and someone points it out: Just be honest, and try to stay calm.
>Anon why are you shaking like this?
>Oh sorry, I'm just a bit anxious, that's all.
Drink some water and take some deep breaths if it does happen, excuse yourself to the bathroom for a few moments if you'd rather do that in private, and try to look at the situation realistically; i.e. you're not in danger, the other girls aren't judging you, they don't hate you, you have no logical reason to be afraid.
Easier said than done, I know, but CBT methods like this help me a lot so it's worth a shot.

Please seek professional help. You might say to yourself that you're fine and you're managing, but you're clearly not. What ever past trauma you endured is interfering with you ability to enjoy life and maintain interpersonal relationships. I ask you to please to the steps to overcome this for the sake of your own happiness and that of those who care about you. You can overcome this. You are stronger than what happened.
As for the meet itself, just get yourself into a good headspace beforehand and focus on having fun. Give yourself permission to have fun. Allow yourself to accept others' kindness. Make a conscious effort not to focus on what makes you feel anxious if that's what it takes. If someone asks about your hands, just say you're nervous around new people; it's not like you'd be lying.

Don't do this to yourself. All the Red Pill and manosphere will do is make you even more depressed and angry. It'll convince you that everything is out to get you and that you're doomed to be alone unless you look down on people who are different to you. It'll make you feel like life is some sort of game where the decks are impossibly stacked against you, but won't offer you any solutions beyond blaming everything on other people and society. All you'll do is be angry on the Internet with other lonely angry dudes. If you want to live your life in a self righteous fury, then fine, go with it. Personally, it was fucking exhausting and made me feel hopeless. Nothing has been better for me than leaving that toxic crap alone, going to therapy, and working on the things I didn't like about myself. Accepting that you're a bit shit and working to improve yourself is a million times harder than blaming the world and complaining about how everything sucks, but it's worth it.

It depends where you live and what you do. IT has different education requirements and responsibilities than coding (what he does), for example. And as anon mentioned, living costs are factored in. The real trick is to find a telecommuting job from a company based somewhere where living costs are high, and then live somewhere where costs are low.

He makes nowhere near 100k yet (remember, starting salary in a low cost area). The father of one of my friends works at a bank, doing coding, and he makes well over 100k, probably even when converted to US funds. He has been with the company for several decades. So who knows how that's going to end up.

All I know is, the average salary for something like developmental services worker or a case worker is like 35k. And that's average, not starting.

Everyone does this, my dude. Literally everyone, everywhere. I don't know what sheltered bunker you came out of but this isn't behavior that's exclusive to lolitas.

There has to be a reason? A lot of lolitas I see online are super super accepting of dudes, even sissies, because if not they're potentially being transphobic, yadda yadda yadda

On one hand, I really don't want to end up posted somewhere because my normie friend is a hyper ita. On the other hand, I've spend a shit ton of time and money building my wardrobe and coords. I don't want to lend her anything beyond a decent blouse just so she can impress the dude she's boning.

Anon, what is wrong with your reading comprehension? This is my first post in this thread, and I have no qualms with men on /cgl/ who are genuinely interested in cosplay and lolita. What is annoying is when this boy enters with "tfw no gf" or "tfw I'm a virgin." At least it's fun to read through the small drama, I guess.

I am happy for my scars on the back and shoulders because I can never go out with a jsk and no blouse/cardighan.
But I hate when they bleed through bandages on the blouse shoulders. Sweet kuro lolita 4 life.
