ew you're a grown adult get off your ass and clean after yourself

Anonymous 111857

Cleaning isn't really a 'chore'either unless you start forcing yourself into this elaborate list and schedule. Returning your house to coziness is calming and rewarding. It is like popping bubblewrap or using a zen sand rake.

I think living like this my entire life because my parents don't care gave me a complex about feeling cramped and unable to just wander. When I go to normal people's houses, I get the urge to just walk around and stretch in their wide open clean rooms. I do clean up, but every time I do, the space gets full of junk again. And not trash, if it was all trash then it would be easy to get rid of. It's just… stuff. And it annoys me. My parents buy so much shit we never use. I cleared the kitchen counters, 3 bags of stuff, and they've been in my room for months. None of it has been touched or missed. It wasn't necessary. But we have it anyway. Too much to put in cupboards. And I don't want to throw it all away because it feels like a waste.

My current BF was always super helpful at work, especially when the actual guy who was supposed to assisting the team was fucking around on a different floor. What really sealed the deal for me when I saw him come in early and leave small gifts on everyones desk on christmas(we work in a 24/7 dispatch office) and didn't say a word when everyone came in.

Does it bother you if you're partner is open about their previous relationships, previous ONS, ex-girlfriends, ex-wives, and such and always brings them up?

Getting used by a man who also doesn't care what you like and only pleases him doesn't sound so man-decentering

Anonymous 120314

>>120313
Yeah, getting used by a man without any love, affection, cuddling or romance in "return" (I mean ideally the man should actively want to cuddle you and actively love you) is my personal hell.

I mean, anon is right, I am sexually repressed because I want love but I know objectively that very few men even pretend to love their lovers/gfs/'hookups', let alone actually love them. Then they call you clingy and act like you're a crazed maniac for having sex with the expectation they love you.

Sex with men is inherently risky for women. Sleeping around will never be a healthy sex life, sorry. Loving relationships only.

Anonymous 120324

>>120314
They will cuddle you. There's a lot of misinfo about what casual sex is like and I get it. In movies and TV there's a trope of the chauvanist man who pumps and dumps a different woman every night and then forgets about her forever more. I've never actually met one of those men.

I have 2 men right now who I intend to keep around for awhile. I see each one maybe twice a month cause my sex drive is low. The younger one buys me food so he's a free meal ticket. With the older guy we just get to fucking, cause he's busy or whatever. (He sometimes takes me shopping so who gives a fuck). Then, whoever it is, I go back to his place, fuck him, and we usually cuddle and goof of to my hearts content cause we both like that. We watch movies too usually. The sex is always good because I only date men who let me control the situation. The young guy even likes it when I tie him up and hit him lol.
This is the important part: after I go home, I DON'T NEED TO ENTERTAIN THEM ANYMORE. I can ghost them as long as I want. No babysitting men and their stupid fuckin problems.
I'm rambling about all this because I wish I knew it 2 years ago. You can get what you need sexually without having to kiss some moid's ass.

>>120321
At this point I'm nearly aromantic. A few low-committment moids tending to my needs is good. Never marrying, never getting a bf.

Anonymous 120325

>>120324
Whatever rocks your boat, most casual stuff doesn't go like this and can end up in abuse.
I just find this very appalling and sad, would rather do nothing instead.

am I the problem? Anonymous 120256[Reply]

i'm a very anxious/nervous type person. i've been with my bf for about 2 years now and we only talk through messages on discord for the most part cause we live very far away from each other and I get way too scared to call. growing up, I pretty much avoided boys and so i really cant talk to him. we've tried a few times but I just cant. it makes me insanely scared and nervous. he sends me voice messages sometimes though and he sounds really really really cute and I tell him this all the time, how cute he is. problem is the other day I sent him a video of me talking about some random stuff and he was just called me cute a bit. I know this sounds stupid but i guess I was expecting him to be like "awww you sound so so so cute" and stuff but he seems like only mildly interested? I don't know. I don't think he said anything wrong but its just that I feel like I'm so in love with him and enamoured by him and I don't know if he feels the same and its making me depressed.

i think its important for you to tell him how much you need affirmations and enthusiasm. although, you're better off growing your self esteem in ways other than an online boyfriend. but i have had friends who made the whole online relationship thing work and regularly visit their boyfriend/spend time together in collaborations on projects. you will only get closer if you call. wouldn't it be nice to experience each other live and unscripted?

Anonymous 120281

>>120260
thank you, I hope that's it

>>120273
yeah i've tried lots of times to tell him how I need lots of reassurance and stuff and I think he tries but just when he feels like it. tbf though, I think I do overthink things a lot. like the other day, I mentioned I was wearing slippers and he asked if they were bunny slippers and I felt really upset because they weren't that kind and why would he think I have bunny slippers?

i'm trying to work more on my self confidence though and being more normal. I was really happy to have sent him that video of me but his reaction wasn't what I was expecting ig. i'm gonna try to work up the courage to call him at some point though.

Anonymous 120302

I think if he called you cute then you should probably believe that. Depending on his personality type, he might not be the kind of person to say "you sound so so so cute", and from his perspective, he might be anxious too.
That being said, you should try to see your emotions through the lens of an external observer. Some of the defensiveness and overreactivity to specific phrasing might be new to someone not used to providing this level of support, and taking a step back and thinking "why do I feel this way when he does X", and trying to examine whether it could be from your own past emotional background, can help in developing better coping mechanisms.

Anonymous 120311

>>120256
It is scary, but you really need to just bite the bullet and talk to this stupid moid, preferably with both of you on cam. The more you do that, the easier it'll get. Also, you'll start seeing him as an actual person instead of a 'really really really cute' sounding voice. To answer the titular question, sorta? Idk why he hasn't insisted on this either, though, if you're both serious about this and have been 'official' for 2 years . . .

Anonymous 120320

Yes you are the problem. You sound incredibly narcissistic and insecure and frankly insufferable. I was like you a couple of years ago though, so you'll probably grow out of it if you genuinely desire to do so .

lesbian or comphet?? Anonymous 120224[Reply]

Hi everyone,
I'm not sure if this post is allowed on here, but it's worth a shot. I'm 19 this year, and up until I was 14 I was convinced I was heterosexual. But every time a guy hit on me or asked me out, I'd get this deep feeling of dread and disgust. Once I even cried because I felt 'dirty'. When I was 16, I saw this boy, I really really liked him. I'd talk about him all the time, wish he'd ask me out, got upset when he turned me down, etc. Eventually, I went on a date with him when I was 17, and I came home genuinely wondering if I was a lesbian. I had an on and off thing with him throughout last year, but every time my friends would jokingly refer to him as my boyfriend, I'd feel disgusted that they could even percieve me that way. I'd have so many talking stages with guys, but after a day or two, that 'honeymoon phase' would wear off and I would genuinely hate them. Every time my friends would talk about boys, I'd feel this almost imposter syndrome when I'd talk and try to relate to them. When I'd see guys IRL, I'd study their faces, imagine scenarios, before finally deciding to like them. I liked getting attention and validation from men, but I'd never want it to get serious. My 'feelings' for men i've 'wanted' recently always wittles down unless I see them IRL, then I want them to want me again. Sounds pretty lesbian, right?

Here's my dilemma. I've had two 'talking stages' with girls before, and I lowkey got that same 'ick' feeling. I'd honestly get uncomfortable every time my friends / family members / literally anyone would just percieve me as capable of having romantic feelings period. (I.E., insinutating i'm busy on valentines, asking about relationship prospects, etc.) I find the idea of being with a man appealing, occasionally find myself wanting a boyfriend even, I find male fictional characters attractive, and I've had crushes on IRL men before but they were always unattainable in some way (i.e. tiktok boys or passers by on the street.) I remember having crushes on boys as a kid, before I could conceptualise male validation. I don't feel aversed to being with a man, and I find sex with AMAB individuals appealing. I've had phases where I even questioned my attraction to women and thought I was straight and faking it.

However, I can't differentiate between these feelings towards men being comphet / wanting validation / loving the chase, or if I'm just bisexual and currently going through the 'bi cycle'. My standards for Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Anonymous 120271

your experience seems more about having a psychological issue with sex rather than about being a straight or bi in general. for example you say you dont like that people can perceive you sexually regardless if its with a man or woman. so maybe its because of trauma or maybe its because being "taken" reduces your worth as a human being in our culture, i dont know, but something tells me its easier for you to have crushes on fictional men and imagine having sex with genderqueers because it doesnt involve any of that. maybe having crushes on extremely attractive men offsets that degradation/disgust since hes already high value himself, it doesnt count enough to reduce your own worth. and as the honeymoon phase finishes the fantasy of romance dies out and the disgusting reality of being expected to give up your body kicks in, like a grotesque corruption of genuine love, you feel sick. but im talking shit. its probably as simple as that other anon puts it. if you masturbate to boys more, even though youre chances of being happy with a woman is higher than a(n ugly) man, youre still likely straight/bihet. i think its normal to be disgusted by men if when youre suppose to be attracted to them. your story sounds less comphet more polilez atp

hmm, it sounds like you might be on the aro/ace spectrum, anon. I've had these feelings as well. Sometimes we like to idealize relationships because we've been taught to want them but once reality hits they become icky. asexual people aren't always repulsed by sex. some of them even enjoy it. idk if CC can tell you who you are, but I think you should definitely look into this.

These girls are the best in theory but the few that exist are 1) too mentally ill to handle 2) straight or 3) not interested in dating. I'm okay with the last two but they're often all three and while i can stand not having someone as long as i can admire them from afar, i'm just not into crazy people. The dream would be a hikkineet celibate woman who is also somehow mentally stable but it would take a miracle

i think my gf hates me Anonymous 120103[Reply]

I think my gf hates me

or at least has grown to like me a lot less over the course of our relationship. We have been dating for almost 6 months now and at first it was really good but than she started ignoring me more and more

like for example she is like super chronically online and has a screentime of like 16 hours a day on her phone when she doesnt have uni or work or wtv

but she takes ages to respond to me im talking like 8 hours WHILE ACTIVE, like not including when she is sleeping.like on valentines day i wished her happy valentines at 7am and she didnt respond till 9pm

and like idk at our one month she got me a handwritten letter and flowers and than for the months after that she wrote me a letter which was super sweet. But for our five months she didnt get me anything so im starting to wonder if i have upset her. also i always for our anniversaries i always get her gifts like plushies, flowers, a card and her fav chocolate and snacks

idk i also just feel like she doesnt see a future with me. I feel like a placeholder until a prettier girl comes. idk i know i need to talk to her but i dont know how

i also was recently with diagonsed bpd which she doesnt know about yet and it makes me really unstable espically when she ignores me or treats me differently.

i am so so scared to lose her and i am so afraid she will leave me. I genuinely think I would kill myself. Over the course of the relationship i have attempted sucicde twice because i felt ignored and unloved by her which i know is not her fault and that it is my own perception.

She knows. She's likely been distancing herself so she can make you feel like the separation is mutual.

Why the hell would a yumejo run a yaoi server?
The only yaoi spaces I visit are on reddit and even THEY don't have trannies. The yaoi and BL subs are golden. What the heck are you even on about?

You sound like a larper mixing up fujos and yumejos. Are you even serious about larping though?

Anonymous 118607

>>118606
No need to act so abrasive. I've been into yaoi since before the terms fujo and yume even existed and tend to avoid modern yaoi culture because of what I stated in my previous message.

I thought yumejo meant a mix between fujo and yume. You could have told me that politely.

Reddit also fucking sucks for everything because half the time shit gets banned/censored before I can even see what the hell it is.

Anonymous 118612

>>118607
Yeah it really depends on the subreddit, most hobby subreddits are absolutely fine. Some are full of moid scum and tranny mods. You don't get any of that in the fujo subs though. Sure you have have male and female fans. But the trans presence is only heavy in places like r/witchesvspatriarchy.

Ha, you're not the only one, I have similar fantasies. But for me it's not out of man-hate. I think I just feel weak myself and beating/raping a man makes me feel in control. Plus I have very low self-esteem and have never had a bf, so maybe my brain rationalises and eroticises that I'd have to force myself on a man to obtain true intimacy. I also relate to feeling like a bad person for getting off on these things. I'm not sure whether to suppress it for life, or find a bf who'd consent to me doing it.

Not a troon either fwiw
