My boyfriend waited until AFTER rent and bills are due to tell me that they were going to be late AGAIN. Fuck this fucking shit life bros. Yet his parents think I'm the fucking problem. He would never survive regular life without all of the help he gets. I feel like I am being dragged down and held back by him.

I even look back on when I was a teenager and how much more impressive my writing and art and creative output was back then. I'm like a hollow shell of my old self now, approaching my mid twenties, close to graduating with a two year degree but no cigar. I fucking hate this shit and what I've become

Even in 2019 pre quarantine I had a drive to do things, now I half ass everything. not to sound cliche or whiny or like I'm the only one that matters, but isolation fucking murdered my psyche and now all I want to do is manifest my demise and die

my bf nearly choked me out this morning during an argument, he grabbed my neck and pushed me until i was half-off the bed we were on. i didn't feel threatened maybe because i am stupid but he grabbed my throat really hard and bruised it. i also later dislocated my thumb bending it backwards while dissociating and immediately pushed it back into place. it was backwards all the way to my wrist and the crack was so loud if snapped me out of my stupid and now horribly bruised and weak but somehow doesnt seem to need a doctor. been hallucinating, the world always feels like an ocean, i get terrified sometimes. i'd choke me too if i could do it that effectively. i wish i could love correctly, myself or others. i only seem to love dogs and tiny kids and texmex.

first of all, you need to leave him. you need to develop some sense of self-preservation, and quickly. this is not okay but you also you don't sound like you're in good state of mind to even properly assess environmental threats, probably because you're actively undergoing abuse. second, don't do that with your thumb anymore.

My boyfriend doesn’t love me how I want him to. He doesn’t understand me at all even though he thinks he does, it’s infuriating. He thinks I’m the one for him but I’m going insane pretending to be his perfect girl. I would keep it up forever if only he would love me properly.

Then he’s wrong for you. So many people get stuck in miserable relationships with a person who doesn’t speak the same love language as them and it never changes. It’s not too much to ask for someone to love you in a way that makes you feel loved. It should be one of the non negotiable of a relationship. Someone else out there will love you the way you want to be loved. Start thinking seriously about finding a new bf.

What's retarded is the idea that people should change the love language that is natural to them, when the other person should understand and accept it instead. Or break up.

Anonymous 58254

People don’t change, someone who needs physical affection and words of affirmation is never going to be happy with someone whose style of showing affection is doing the dishes. Someone whose style of affection is giving someone a necklace or some soap is going to feel forced and resentful at having to change their style of affection too and in the end it will just feel fake and strange to them. You cannot ask someone to change their needs and personality to suit yours and vice versa without it feeling forced and strange to the other person. You’re just fucking incompatible. Accept it and find someone else you’re actually compatible with.

You need to leave. Chocking is the second highest predictor of domestic violence related death, second only to owning guns. It's not a slap in the wrist, it is attempted murder, even if he didn't mean it that way. You need to leave now.

My ex boyfriend is a true narcissist that emotionally and mentally abused me pretty badly. I am still trying to recover 6ish years later because of how deep it was, and because he would not stop harassing me years afterward. Now he acts like the victim and never apologized for everything. I'm almost certain that right now he is trying to find ways to paint me as the abusive one and has been set on ruining my life as much as he can from afar. He has the upper hand, too, unfortunately. He is quite well-known where I live and his family is very well off. It's all just so weird to me. I have only told very few people what he did to me (and not even all of it), so it's not as if I'm out here trying to ruin his reputation. I don't really get it tbh.

Employer wants me to get covid tested for a business seminar thing that starts next week. I really don't want to. I never get out of the house except to take walks alone in isolated nature. I'm not sick either.
It's especially dumb since these idiots have been talking for a months about how they're going to go bar crawling every evening of the seminar week. Like don't they realise they are 1000 times more likely to catch it there than getting it from little old me ?

Anxiety is really bad. I know if I don't quit my job the stress is going to kill me but I don't know what would happen after that. When I feel like this all my suicidal ideation comes back and I just want out

Anonymous 58389

>>58380
It's just a covid test, anon. It's not like they're asking you to take a vaccine. The covid test is just a quick nasal swab. you'll be in and out in like 15 minutes, excluding the waiting room stuff.

There is liability that comes with a huge fine if an employeer willingly lets covid spread in their business.
When they get audited, a "my employee didnt want to take the test and said she was healthy, so we don't have the paperwork to prove that she's covid free" wouldn't be a good excuse.

Don't take their request as an accusation that you have it. Doesn't matter if you don't go outside or are less likely to have it than your coworkers. it's a paper trail so your employeer's ass is covered.

Just think about how'd you feel if one of your other coworkers who barhops didnt want to take a quick test because "i'm fine bro, trust me" and then spread it to you or your loved ones.

Anonymous 58390

I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but what do you mean You don't know what will happen after you quit your job? I'd imagine you would embrace the NEET life… unless you're smart about it and look for work or education before you leave. Make an exit plan, it may eliminate some of that anxiety and by extension your suicidal thoughts.

Your health comes before anything else. You can't do well at work if you're not doing well in your own life.

If you wake up every day with suicidal ideation because of your job, you should move on from there.

Covid is the perfect time to find a new job. So many positions are open at the moment, don't let this opportunity pass you.

You've already taken the first biggest step to improving your situation, which is realizing that it's shit. The next step is taking the initiative and getting out of that rut.

Doesn’t it make more sense to tell guys you are not a virgin and then the virgin fetishists are instantly turned off? I actually am a virgin but I told my bf I wasn’t because I was embarrassed at still being a virgin in my late twenties.

I don't live in the US, and there is no such fine here. In fact, employers cannot force employees to get tested.
The thing that pisses me off isn't the test itself (though I maintain it is beyond useless if they all go barhopping for a week straight…), but the fact that they dropped this on me yesterday out of nowhere when the seminar thing had been planned for months. It's a pain to get a slot to get tested here, and I have no idea if I'll be able to get one in time. So it's just more stress and anxiety on my plate because they are being inconsiderate idiots.

I'm going to lose my fucking mind if I have to keep seeing and hearing about how I should donate to save Palestinians this stand by Palestine that for much longer. Why do I have to be made to give a shit about a nation that raises men who wouldn't think two seconds about violently raping me. To be fucking honest I kind of don't care too much about the women either. They're perfectly compliant to the gross shit husbands and brothers and fathers perpetuate and they're ready to get their daughters' genitals get mutilated.

Ancient Jews took the land from Canaanites and other pagan tribes and declared it their own, whose modern day ancestors are the people of Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria etc. So technically yeah Muslims have more ancestral ties to that land than Jews do.

Has anyone else completely resigned themselves to being alone because they can’t be perfect? I sabotaged my relationship with an amazing man because I kept thinking who cares, he can replace me in a minute with a better girl anyway. If my face or body or personality can’t be exactly the way I want it to be, or I feel like someone doesn’t have the exact impression of me I want, I just self sabotage and isolate myself from people. And then of course, I wallow in depression and self pity. Ive ruined many otherwise good connections by doing this and I want to stop but can’t.

Not much to tell really. My idiot, meathead neighbor and his friends tried to hack into my sm accounts. They were bragging about it while I had my window open. (Because they're kinda dumb) This same neighbor threw a chair at my door and called me a "crazy witch." (OBV. I didn't open the door to confront him) I had to even bring his garbage bin in because it was on my driveway and I didn't want to be blamed for it by the tenants. When I did, he had this smug smirk when he thanked me. I said nothing and went inside. Another guy friend I friend zone started stalking around my house so I had legal advice about the issue. I complained on 4chan ( this was before I discovered crystal cafe) only to earn mockery and larping. Today was the last draw. I got into a confrontation with a incel and walked away. My heart was racing and I trembled from anger. There is something wrong with incels and stalkers. They're broken. I can't trust men anymore, not after all this. But I don't hate them either.

i'm sorry to hear all of that. it's not surprising. you cannot, basically ever, go to men for sympathy. that's why the /r/relationship threads are also maelstroms of nastiness, because they're so occupied by men who blame the woman for everything. i used to post threads in /adv/ when it was first opened and i used to get soooo much shit for telling them porn is damaging to women and relationships, on top of being abusive/rape on tape. they just told me i was a crazy bitch that'll be alone forever on repeat, and that "we don't self insert!!! you're just insecure!!" lmao.

it's not just incels and stalkers and 4chan though. remember that australian comedian that was raped and murdered and her family and grave was harassed and vandalized for no reason at all other than women are hated? people in real life actually went out and repeatedly vandalized this poor girl's grave. it's just sick. they're unfeeling and unhuman.

I keep getting dark facial hair growing all over. I've been going to an electrolysist for a while now but it keeps seeming to come back. Maybe it will work if I keep up the treatments but it's really annoying. I have 4 dark whiskers on my chin, about 8 in between my eyebrows, and more above/below eyebrows and a few on my upper lip right now. And i have to walk around like this until the appointment. I'm calendar watching anxiously. It's driving me absolutely insane. I can get through if I think, "after this I'll never deal with this problem again," but she's worked on my face for like 6 sessions now and it keeps growing back. I can't even get started on my bodyhair because every time I think, "yes, face is finished, now the rest," the facial hair grows back. I feel like a disgusting hairy monster.

I have npc syndrome. I don't enjoy anything, basically. I feel like my life is a script I'm just reading through. I don't have any friends. I will likely live with my boyfriend and his extremely generic family. it's weird. he cares about living and the things he does. I can't relate at all. I feel like I'm secondary to him and it's not his fault. I do have hobbies and I create things but none of it brings me pleasure or anticipation. It's all generic, the things I create, too. It feels like I'm just executing some mindless code when I draw. Everything looks too simplistic and rigid that I create. I smoke and think, that's the only pleasure, albeit not a large one, I feel, as well as sex. But I've accepted I will never find a man who wants to have sex as much as I want.

I want to not smoke, though, and I wish I didn't get pleasure out of sex because it requires another person. I don't enjoy masturbation even though I cum. I wish I could be self-sufficiently happy, as all I do is like a larp of that.

Today I talked to my long term bf about the idea of getting married and having kids. He mentioned how he wants to get married and have kids one day. I told him I’m not getting any younger and would like to start planning a family within a year or two. He told me he won’t be ready to get married or have kids for another 10 years or so and wants to focus on his career. When I asked him if that’s his way of saying he’s not interested in having marrying me or having kids with me, he just went very quiet. I got the hint and realized he means he’s planning on marrying another woman after me. I’ve been really upset all day, crying and feel resentful at having my time wasted like this. Now I feel like there’s no future for us and I have to start looking for another boyfriend. But that means having to throw away 4 years of a relationship with a man I thought was more serious about me.

I remember a few years ago realizing how boring and monotonous adult life is for most people and it was depressing. They just work jobs they hate, get married, have kids and cohabit together in a pretty boring passionless relationship. When I was a kid I thought it would be way more exciting.

That's an awful feel. I'm sorry anon. Leave. You'll be sad for a week but then happy as hell you left.
Moids have this conception that they can fuck around until they're 40 and then suddenly find a 20 year old girl to marry and have kids with. It's really disgusting. No woman wants to marry a man that much older than her, and even if they did, the guy would be too old to enjoy having kids, and the kids would be poorly served by having an elderly father, who would then pop off and die 20 years earlier than the fathers of their friends. There's something wrong with men. I really just hate them so much sometimes.

I'm dating a guy 4 years younger than me. Older men are the worst, they just want to control you and boss you around and lecture you on things. Any man who wants a significantly younger woman is nothing but an abuser. Men are the ones who hit the fucking wall after spending 15 years doing nothing but masturbating to disgusting, violent, degenerate pornography and staying up to 2am playing video games. That's why they're all balding and fat now. Men shouldn't be left to their own devices, because they can't take care of themselves or make good decisions, they just deathgrip their cock and lurk on discord and twitch all night until they wake up at age 40 with heart disease, pre-diabetes, more hair on their pillowcase than on their head, and a microdick from growing out their beergut. Men are nothing but trash.

About a month ago a girl and I had a strong mutual interest in each other which lead to cuddling, calling each other pet names, having some of the best and most meaningful conversations ever, etc. but after talking to her friends she wanted us to quit what we were doing because she felt our age difference (18-26) was too large and introduced an unintentionally power-imbalance between us.
And while I agreed with her I then decided to bottle up my feelings to focus on a difficult period in my life and now all this heartbreak is hitting me at once and I just feel so lonely and unloveable with tons of self-esteem issues like I did before I met her.
She did say we'd stay friends but she hasn't really stayed in touch despite me reaching out to her which hurts me quite a bit even though I know she is very busy.

I'm gonna honor her wish to never lose that optimism that she loved about me though even if it's tough right now!

I hate how men think they have an unlimited time to fuck around and can out off marriage and kids until their late 40s and 50s.

Studies have shown that the DNA in male sperm starts degrading steeply after 35 and that men over 40 have a 1 in 8 chance of having a child with autism, even if the mom is young. Older fathers also put young mothers at risk for more pregnancy, fetal and labor complications, and the chances of a child with schizophrenia also rise sharply with sperm from men over 35.

Moids trip over themselves to post photos of empty egg cartons but then pull this shit where they're shooting gimpy 50 year old swimmers and breeding up potatoes. Maybe both genders should grow the fuck up and acknowledge that they need to learn how to commit to a relationship in their late teens and early 20s so they can be settled and pumping out babies by 24 instead of 44. But historically moids have always done this kind of bullshit. 50 year old men trying to marry women young enough to be their granddaughters is just absoulutely disgusting.

My boyfriend just made a big deal about me going out to celebrate one of my male friend's birthday this weekend 1 on 1, and anyways we can only be 2 people at a table… My boyfriend says its basically like a date. Ive known this friend for over 4 years and I barely ever hungout with him. Sometimes he acts overly nice which can lead me to thinking hes flirting and stuff, but I always ignored the comments and frankly we're just friends, he knows I have a boyfriend and I always talk to him about them. Hes also on the spectrum so when he does something weird I just shrug it off because hes awkward in that way sometimes. He's genuinely a good friend of mine that just gets lonely at times (he gets rejected by his friend group a lot because he's socially awkward) and I know he means no harm he just has difficulty with how to act with girls. I got upset at my boyfriend but went and canceled the plans with my friend. Am I really in the wrong? My boyfriend even went to say that he would've been okay with it if my friend asked them for permission to go on a night out with me… I don't know who's in the wrong.

Having friends is good. But your boyfriend isn’t wrong.

But don’t limit yourself. A person you’re with must stimulate the greatest growth.

I think the answer of this depends on the relationship. Don’t limit yourself but know you won’t be growing with your boyfriend if you continue this behaviour. If he doesn’t like how it feels that’s right of him not wrong.

What matters is how you feel.

Honestly if I was the guy and I felt you were going a date with someone else and that you chose this desire over me/my desires.
Then I’d rightfully consider ending the relationship. For the best of us both.

I was only 12, so I don't think it really counts as a relationship, but still, I was such a piece of shit. I was depressed and used him for attention, and on top of all that, I kind of spread that he had a weird dick.

Was just thinking about a guy I dated when I was young. He was twice my age, married, and in an authority position. Even just that is screwed up enough.

But I realized now how little effort he put into the relationship and that he basically used me for sex only. He had a very well paying job, but aside from taking me to the cheapest, greasiest, places to eat, never took me anywhere that involved spending money. Used to turn up to "dates" wearing old dirty clothes, never gifted me the smallest thing, pressured me to do sexual things I didn't want in locations I didn't want, and constantly, constantly would tell me how stupid and easy I was as a way to lower any feeble resistance I might have put up.

Like my self confidence wasn't low enough already to be dating some disgusting old man who doesn't even bother to tidy up or change his sheets for me. I was young, pretty, and miles out of his league. Yet he had to treat me like trash and make me feel like I was the one unworthy of him and too stupid to function. The few rare, vaguely kind things he did for me were more in his own interest, not mine. He was even selfish in conversation, selfish in bed, and so full of himself, telling me about all the other young women he had done the same to and how we should have a threesome with one, because I wasn't enough alone obviously. There was nothing in it for me.

It's so sad to realize how attention and touch starved I must have been to go through all that, and like it, for almost a year and only stop because I moved away. And then humor his regular harassing messages for another year on top of that.

I got the last laugh though. I had to contact him about something years later, not out of choice. We hadn't been in touch for a while and a sent a formal email requesting something. He sent back the same old, expecting to that we would just pick up where I left before.

Even though I hadn't fully processed what had happened between us, I had this overwhelming wave of revulsion. I saw red and fucking snapped. I immediately deleted that email account and opened another. I took everything, everything and sent it to his employers, about 100 documents, photos, and proof of all other people he had fucked (over). He immediately got fired and has been laying low since.


That was years ago though but I still have a complex about people thinking I'm stupid that I'm trying to work through. And having to accept that, yes, I was that desperate just for the lowest, most worthless, basic acknowledgement that I existed.

Then he came home and smashed a glass really hard because he got mad. It gets worse everytime and I can't do anything about it because he thinks he's fine and that we believe he's sober. I feel so fucking alone everyone jokes about being an alcoholic and thinks it's nothing serious but it's tearing my family apart, and I have no one to talk to about this because no one understands it. My parents argue on an everyday basis since the day I was born and to this day i start shaking really hard everytime I hear them.

I hate most anime and the obsession people have with it as a medium. Hardly worth a ''vent'', but whatever.

I feel like any artistic achievement within the medium always comes to fruition in spite of it being an anime, never because of it (Evangelion, Ghibli movies, etc.); probably 95% of the medium is littered with generic garbage and same-y character tropes meant to cater to manchildren and kids that has terrible pacing and awkward nonstop exposition (show, don't tell ffs) and dialogue dumps and fanservice galore.
I get annoyed by the constant cuteness and perceived attractiveness of the characters that gets not just praised but obsessed over - this goes for fujos but especially and mainly waifushit that men (and even some women) cling to as some kind of coping mechanism.
Even just pertaining to the aesthetic, I absolutely loathe and physically cringe at stuff like Hololive and I've even started getting annoyed by Touhou and the likes after seeing those godawful fumos everywhere.

Even the East Asian media I enjoy consuming is too often riddled with tropes, cliches, and aesthetic influences inspired by anime to their own artistic detriment. Only stuff like old Japanese cinema is tame and has proper artistic merit to it imo.

However, this will change when you will finish studies and will have more time and mental energy for yourself. End of studies is very stressful, and bad stress blocks your creative abilities.

It's not you being too old, it's you being too stressed out, just like I was. My drawings I considered the best were the ones I've done after finishing studies and applying for jobs.

Then the fun starts when I mention being interested in anime, and they project their tumblrmode obsession onto me (whilst we bag on superwholockians, ironic). Then they incessently talk about anime and anything about it because they think it's part of my personality. I voluntarily watch an anime series like, once a year. Anime is good as a pasttime with good story, like watching a Ghibli movie for the first time when you were in elementary. I despise liking any anime just because, ¡it's anime!

How do I stop relying on others' perceived attractiveness of me to give me self-worth?

It literally is the gas I run on. I'm obsessed with it.

The reason I'm asking is because I wanted to be a cunt to my assburgers sister the other day because she kept on claiming her waist is smaller than mine, but it legitimately isn't (mine is inches smaller, and my entire measurements are more extreme than hers). It's such a dumb thing to want to be a bitch over, who cares if she thinks her waist is smaller when it isn't. I felt triggered over her cope statements like "abs wouldn't look good on my waist bc it's so smol uwu" when I suggested working out (I have abs) and I wish I didn't feel so attacked. Like, now I'm in a complex over my waist still not being small enough even though it is physically and proportionally smaller than hers. To add insult to injury, she was like "it's a good thing all of us girls in this family loved our bodies! Uwu" and I suffered from significant, obvious anorexia everyone in my family (but her) commented on. In fact, when family members would comment on my body, she would interrupt as if they were talking to her because she is obsessed with believing she's extremely skinny (she's a healthy weight, skinny, sure, but not ana) and my family members would have to correct her that they were talking about my weight. It's like she never can accept I'm a lower weight or a smaller waist or anything and I wish this didn't affect me the way it does, it makes me feel sick and idk why I'm so obsessed with my older sister acknowledging certain facts. I just always wanted her to admit something positive about me.

Are you trying to imply that if the Ghibili movies weren't animated in Japan, but say, animated in the US, they would still work? Or maybe Evangelion would have been better as a live action movie?

When other people make it or when we go to a pizza place, he always eats the pizzas with golden crusts and properly baked cheese and never complains, so obviously it has nothing to do with him preferring half-raw pizzas.

I was implying that themes such as existentialism or coming-of-age tales as they are presented in such stories aren't enhanced at all by them being in the format of an anime, but that they achieve such feats of resonating with the audience and telling a meaningful tale in spite of that, with the aesthetic appeal of anime only serving to make such themes more palpable to the average consumer, really.

I think cinema, certain types of TV shows, and especially literature lend themselves much better to the exploration of such themes and various others at a more visceral, direct level, and are simulataneously held to more rigorous standards if they do attempt to delve into them, and as such hold much more cultural relevancy when they do succeed.

Whereas the more juvenile - male, introverted - target demographic of most anime eats things up too readily, setting the bar as low as it is. It's outright jarring seeing them try mix in half-assed philosophical concepts and moral dilemmas, if anything.

Okay, I believe I see a point you're making about the medium being limiting, but again I ask, are you saying that Evangelion would have been better as a live-action drama? Ghibli movies instead being animated by Warner Bros? Themes overall sure, but for your argument to make sense then these specifically mentioned items things would have to be better in other mediums, and I would just like to know which ones.

I'd be pretty hard-pressed to say that Ghibli films do not hold a lot of cultural relevancy in Japan in general. Evangelion much less so, but probably the most of any late night anime. I suppose the main problem I'm having is that you seem to have a survivorship bias towards novels, cinema and TV shows: there are plenty of cultural artifacts that you are only aware of because other people keep talking about them, and don't talk about the rest as time goes on. 99% of novels sell like dogshit, are hot trash, and noticed by no one. The amount of golden age cinema films you are personally aware of let alone have watched can probably be counted on two hands.

You don't seem to grasp that majority of novels are awful, the majority of films are awful, and that the majority of TV shows are also awful, then somehow think that anime is unique in this regard.

If he's not selfish and just genuinely not unaware of not being good, I would start with telling him what you would like. I would try different positions and try to get past the awkward feeling of communicating during sex. It can be weird at first but its worth building up. Sometimes men are so unaware of what doesn't feel good for you and you have to show them how to do something right. (Also I think most men just don't do enough foreplay.) Porn is to blame lol

I would say you don't need to put it so bluntly like that, you could say sex could be better for you and perhaps use that as an opportunity to get a sex life that better suits you so it's a win-win on both fronts.

If he really loves you and wants more sex, he will improve (given that you are being upfront in directing him to do what you want).

And I hate it. They're someone I can never be with. We'll only be seeing each other for a few more days, ans then never again for the rest of my life. I don't even think they like me in any way. Yet I've never met someone I'm more compatible with, with whom I can talk and laugh for hours and never get tired of their presence.

Ages ago I read a blog of a girl who studied Korean in language schools in Seoul during a gap year from college. She would talk about dating, fashion, food, and had a group of similar friends who she regularly hung out with. She went on to study interpreting and really inspired me to sign up for language classes to do the same. Her blog stopped as soon as she entered her master's and I always wondered how she got on. Had she stopped the blog because she dropped out (she mentioned some personal issues)?

Anyway, I just managed to dox her. Turns out she went to fucking YALE on a scholarship and got special volunteering experience through her family connections. She's now working as a professor. I'm not jealous but it felt like her life was in touching distance for me. Like if I worked hard I could have done what she did. Gone to the places she did, enjoy the same fun things.

But now I realize there's chasms between us. These types of special achievements and recognition just never happen for me. I thought I'd found a cheat code to an amazing life. But no, I'll never have that.

My friend is getting abused by her long term boyfriend. I always suspected something was up with him, he was always extremely moody and overall gave me an awful gut feeling. She doesn't want to leave him despite this, though. It's clear she still loves him and has no intention of leaving him, despite her awareness of just how awful his behavior is. This has been made worse by the fact that they've been dating for 5 years.

I usually only lurk, but I need somewhere anonymous (that isn't 4chan) to vent. My ex girlfriend has been villainizing me terribly on social media even though she was the dumper and our relationship was comfy and with 0 conflict until the very first conflict at the end which was caused by communication issues over something important to me (she was conflict avoidant type, I'm bad at expressing feelings type). I found out about this 2 days ago and I feel so hurt and anxious about this. She has dehumanized me, posted a vulnerable text I had sent (to ridicule me with her followers?) and is creating this narrative like if I was a terrible and crazy person. The worst one was a post about how her therapist said "I sound like the worst", and that just broke me. I don't know what to make of this.

I considered maybe I'm actually crazy and unaware? But to be honest, she's never had anything nice to say about any of her exes and has made posts saying that she has only dated unhinged women because of her low self-esteem.

This is actually making me terrified of dating again because I feel so blindsided and never expected this of her. I keep thinking what could I have done to make her hate me this much, but I'm coming up blank. She's met my best friend and parents and they're coming up blank too.

I have been feeling awful lately because I have been dating this girl who considers herself asexual for quite some time and we've had sex twice. While basically no sex is part of my problem, the last time we had sex I wanted to make her feel very good so I got a little rough and she had me stop. The bad part is that I didn't feel like stopping, I wanted to fuck her hard and make her cum against her will, to see her cry for it. Anyway, I stopped and went to the bathroom and basically masturbated to the thought of raping her. I didn't cuddle her that night, I just felt dirty and even though I really like her I feel like I'm not getting any sexual satisfaction from this relationship and that makes me angry, maybe this is why I'm having these thoughts but idk. So I'm feeling borderline rapist, disappointed in myself, sexually frustrated, angry and sad at the same time. I don't want to break up with her, I don't have anyone else to fuck anyway and maybe it's for the best we don't have sex at all.
And while she hasn't explicitly told me anything I suspect she has suffered sexual assault because she told me she feels safe to do it with me the first time and that makes me feel even more awful but also I feel jelly when I imagine that's the case. Maybe I should go to therapy.

I don’t want to be connected to her anymore but my mom keeps us together saying “bloods thicker than water” and other bullshit. I want to cut ties with her. She’s abusive and never says anything nice, highly critical of everything I do and say, and makes fun of me/gossips about me behind my back, spreads rumours, and likes to stir up drama… and she always says or does something mean when I’m doing something good for myself or have found success— she wants to constantly remind me of how much of a loser I am 24/7, bringing me back to reality. I can’t catch a break. She’s so highly competitive about everything and has to prove people that she’s the better sister, the better looking one, the more fashionable one, the smarter one, the better cook/baker, the more successful one— but who is she proving this to? I don’t care for this sibling rivalry. Why does she still do it? We’re adults now, not little children.
I don’t want to live near her. But I’m unfortunately connected to her for life.

he’s divorced and sort of a hermit so ig i had to know he had to get off somehow, but just thinking about my dad masturbating makes me feel grody. the only okay thing about it is that he probably doesnt watch real porn and just looks at naked women with natural bushes and stuff. i just dont know if i should feel bad or not about him looking at porn in general even if its (kind of) soft core.

Broke my top front artificial tooth yesterday by chomping down a piece of rib. It's still attached to my gum and don't ever plan on pulling it out without looking like a granny or crackhead lady even though I'm 22. I'm so devastated for that to happen and need to eat more carefully from now on. I know that the next thing I should do is to go to a dentist and fix it up plus my 3 cavities but then again we're still in a pandemic. Not only that but I'm jobless with no driver's license and low on money (living with family that's also struggling with money).

Since I'm always at home and everyone else is busy with work and errands I've been given the responsibility of taking my family's dog that has 3 tumors on her for more than 3 years to a veterinary cancer group for check up and chemotherapy that is 40 miles from where I live. I don't know the exact price for the procedures though definitely it must be pricey but I hate seeing my girl suffer for so long since most of my family aren't willing to take the step to help her since they have other responsibilities.

I've been able to make my relationship look quite good, but internally I'm wrecked over it. I pretty much only care about being validated through sex and I want to feel desired by my boyfriend. It's not like he doesn't do anything, but it's never enough for me in terms of me feeling desired. Like, I am starting to give up on that idea and I pretty much rely on validation from compliments by other people and strangers at the moment, I base my worth on it and by how fuckable I feel I am to them. I wish I could appreciate my relationship for what it is - we do things together, we play video games together, we create art together, we talk for long hours, but it's not stimulating to me. The only thing I like doing is sex, really, but since I've accepted I'll never feel desired or wanted from my boyfriend I just like it because I can use a warm body to cum. I love my boyfriend and I feel shitty for being like this, but I don't know how to stop. I read a lot of books and create art and work out and all that, but it's not fulfilling at all.

has anyone gone through court mediation? is this just a waste of money or do mediators actually tend to give a shit about whether or not one party was actually wronged?

Anonymous 59396

>>59393
You're fundamentally misunderstanding what mediation is about. Mediation is purely there for two parties to come to an agreement as far as how to settle a dispute mutually, i.e. the mediator doesn't pick a team, he's purely there to help facilitate you and the other party so it doesn't need to go into a lengthy (and costly) legal case. If you purely feel wronged and want someone to rule whether or not you were wronged, that's what the legal system is for, since I highly doubt you're going to convince the other party (again the meditator is neutral and does not give a fuck who is "right" or "wrong") to just admit he's a horrible person.

What are you trying to get out of mediation?

I never any real female friends in the past. A few months ago I met a nice girl from my city, for the first time I was feeling like I could have a girl as a friend. We had a lot in common and she didn't have any retarded view on politics or life in general.
Yesterday she showed me one of her profiles where she post degenerate stuff and slutty pics (not her, just random slutty girls). Now I feel like I can't take her seriously.
Why people in general so obsessed with sex? I used to think it was just a moid thing, but in my experience, most girls around 18-30 are like that, they just know how to hide their degeneracy.
I don't consider myself conservative or anything, but this kinda makes me feel depressed. I like sex and sometimes I even watch porn, but I don't feel the need to constantly be watching lewd content. I hope it's just a thing with people who spend a lot of time on internet, because if the average person it's like that, I feel like eventually I'm going to go crazy.

It makes the whole thing less special if it's banalised and everywhere, instead of something spiritual and precious. That's the most sad part. When it becomes casual, humans become disposable. So maybe that's why you hate it.

I think you'll make friends soon. Practice talking to family at least. I'm pretty much a loner too, but most of my friends were muslim so they didn't do these things. I seethe when I see heterosexual couples because I want to be a heterosexual myself and am closeted, I want it so badly. Just feel like I am malfunctioning. Separate from the bond of common experience I could have shared with other women.

Okay, are you forgetting how Japan is known for men groping young teenagers on subways and how they are notorious for dealing with rape under the table so it won't show up as a crime on their statistics? They also have far, far less penalties for rape as opposed to the US. Porn being hosted is not the same as it literally being produced. Japanese women are known for looking pained instead of experiencing pleasure in Japan-produced porn. You are retarded if you actually believe degeneracy is lesser there.

>You are retarded if you actually believe degeneracy is more widespread in Japan, no matter how degenerate you think Japan is, U.S. is immensely more degenerate.
The US has far more laws protecting sexual assault victims, far more laws protecting minors, and it punishes offenders of such crimes much more harshly in comparison to Japan. It is a red herring that the US produces or hosts more porn, that doesn't give insight as to what types of porn, and you are completely forgetting that hentai is a huge category in of itself. Japan has been obsessed with youth in a way that the US is not, pedophilia is even more encouraged and at the very least it's far more protected in Japan. Women who live in Japan who are Japanese attest to how their society is extremely backwards in regards to women's rights and how the US is more progressive than they are. You are not providing information on how Japan protects its family institutions - women were punished if they ever cheated, but it was considered normal for men to take multiple wives and cheat, regardless of what their wives wanted. This was a regular practice as lately as the 90s. Women were in general considered totally in charge of their children and men were let off even more scot-free than they are in the US.

It's not like the US isn't degenerate. But if you study Japanese history, yup, it's pretty fucking degenerate.

She hates men so much she's gone back around and somehow obtained pickme traits. It's really poetic actually she's so anti-pickme that she mirrors the pickme's in major ways. Instead of enforcing a male standard of how women she be she makes up her own that is also oversexualized. You are not self respecting unless you are abusive and have tons of sex with men, even though we hate men. Cause that makes sense. And if you say maybe that's a bad way to treat people she labels you a tradthot and her wannarexic followers go ape.

Today I've learned that I failed a uni examn, that means I will have to study through all summer a little bit to pass it. I hated the teacher a lot and his classes were pretty boring, they made the subject a lot more uninteresting that it was. I'm disappointed that this is my third year at uni and I've never had a free summer because of things like this.

I'm also spending too much money and I have little chances to get a job before September. I need my savings for a room's renting but instead of restraining myself from unnecessary things I agreed with my boyfriend to make a small trip to the capital city of my country. The worst is that I'm resentful towards him because the last three times we had sex I really didn't wanted to. I felt really uncomfortable, paranoid and nauseous, physically and emotionally. He knew I didn't wanted to but kept on wanting us to make out. I gave him wat he wanted and felt like shit so much during it and after. I feel like I've lost my respect towards him and I can't stand thinking about him, recieving his messages or thinking about the trip at all. I lost all respect on myself too because I know I should have been more firm about it. I don't know if I should tell him about this when I see him again. I don't feel the same towards him and I hope there's a solution. This reminded me how peaceful and happy I am on my own.

I realize as a woman you have real empathy so it's easy to get attached to a moid that you're dating, but if you surround yourself with enough blackpill you can pull it off. Just satisfy your hetero lizard brain with dat moid attention and fondling, dump, move on. If moids can do it, then so can women. It's just that women need more practice to do so bc we view men as humans

I'm out of high school now, and have NO idea of who I'm supposed to be.

I feel like I'm too old to relate to a lot of zoomers and high schoolers, but lacking life experience to relate to those in college or older. I don't get treated my age, probably because I need to dress more maturely now or I'm too flat.

At 18 am I now an adult? Where did it all go? I feel so bummed out because most of my last years at school were spent derealizing. Staring into space for hours and feeling it blur by. There was so much shit and instability at home, and school was hell, because of rumours, physical harassment, the whole lot. I felt so cynical about the world and I feel like I didn't get to have a childhood because so much of it was spent in loneliness and sadness.

I want it back, another chance to be carefree and I don't know who I'm supposed to be. I still dream about my ex girlfriend but feel a sense of acquiescence that I have to marry a man because I want to serve my family and not deprive my children of a father. And the world feels so unfair, like lies that get repeated enough become the truth, and that most people would go along consensus rather than weighing something up themselves. I'm scared that I won't be free, at a time when my life should just be starting.

I never feel as good as my younger sister, who is so beautiful, and knows how to dress, and blends into any group of people. I find body language so difficult, and can appear so rigid. But she can be one of the girls so easily, and I'm so jealous. Why must it be so hard to be part of their world? And my old best friend suspected me of homosexuality, and began to put up barriers between us, like when I noticed her acting distant, or if I complimented her she would say "ahaha im straight though :/". I feel malfunctioning because I am this way, but I want to like men, and stop being awkward and wayward. I want to be a girl who likes guys and knows how to talk to people, and be the daughter people expect me to be. I feel like a malfunction, not even in a quirky way. Why do you have to be so awkward? Why can't you be like your sister? Are you trying to be different? Why are you so rigid? I just want to be one of the girls.

I miss Bulgaria and I miss my family but I assume everyone hates me so it's hard to reach out to people, I keep avoiding people who could have been friends. I convince myself I'm pretending to be good at things I'm good at and that people secretly hate me.

Most men have a weakness fetish. I really ache to know why moids obsess over naivety and youth. It's pretty obvious to anyone reasonable that the "attracted to a fertile partner" is bullshit, so I just want to know why their whole sexuality consists of being turned on by the process of grooming and fucking over young women or teenagers. I wouldn't mind age gap relationships if men actually cared for women they date, or if they could love just about any woman and just happen to like a young woman. Their fixation on grooming, domination and obedience is what makes me mad.
Also, if you read up on a lot of male bullshit, you realize how similar normal moids talk about women they're attracted to (attracted to women that are in their last puberty stage) compared to actual pedophiles. It just makes me think that they're predatory by nature, with little differences between preferences.

Male sexuality is inherently predatory and pathological. If you break it down, it’s all about grooming, coercion, domination, exploration of something naive or weak or defenceless, conquering, novelty etc. And yes men fetishize the shit out of young weak small naive girls, which also means a large number of them are pedos and almost all men are hebephiles.

It sounds bad but as someone who has dated a couple of depressed guys, I would now class depression in a mate as a red flag. Stupidly I used to think depressed men were more sensitive, empathetic, in touch with their emotions etc. But now I realize many of them are utterly selfish, narcissistic and closed off, and use their depression as an excuse for shitty thoughtless behavior. Depression manifests differently in the moid mind. I really think this modern fad of painting depressed or suicidal men as sad angels who just need to be loved and babied and can do no wrong has to stop. It’s luring a lot of girls into staying with shitty men and being guilted into overlooking unacceptable behavior.

I think it depends on the person. My ex bf had depression for most of his life, but he also took care of it. He went to therapy and managed to deal with his toxic behaviors. He still had to deal with depression all the time, and there were moments where I had to support him, but I never felt like it was a problem. In fact, that was my best relationship in my whole life.

I think the real problem is what you're saying, some girls will go for depressed guys because they feel bad for them and want to "heal" them or fix them.
Depression and mentall illnes is never cute or romantic. If you start dating someone with depression, you need to understand that is going to be a problem at some point, even if he's going to therapy. I started dating my ex bf knowing that, but one of the first things I told him when we started dating, was that I wasn't going to be his therapist, even if I was going to support him all the time.

I work as a researcher and I feel like I'm slowly going full on schizo.

There's so many things that are systematically wrong in our society and we don't even know what truth is anymore. The peer review process is a fucking joke, you can literally just submit a paper full of lies and biased and modified data and it will get published somewhere and somebody will read it as truth. So much of our world is just impacted by this bullshit too. We just believe these articles written about these papers that are straight up bullshit and the journalist probably didn't even read the paper.
Not to mention to do research science if you don't work in a non-military government lab you have to get funding from people who directly profit off of your results being a certain way. Pro-transmedicalization studies seem like they're all funded by pharmaceutical companies. This has been a thing known for a while in nutrition research (being funded by coca-cola to say soda doesn't make you fat) but it's fucking everywhere. And we don't even have consistent metrics or study design guidelines between so many fucking studies to compare anything either.

I got into science because I thought it made sense and that it was noble to try to find/approach the truth in some way but capitalism fucking ruins everything.
You have to publish a certain number of papers a year to get recognition, it's not about the quality of those papers either, just the quantity, so people don't spend time on their work and it can't be replicated in another lab or expanded upon because it's so shoddily done. You'd think it'd be based on quality but it's not and it feels like it never has been. It's just about how many papers you can write and whose pocket you can line by finding "science" that benefits them.

I hate capitalism but I'm not retarded enough to believe there's going to be a revolution or that it will ever change. We're just going to die on this planet and early death after the rich have made it uninhabitable and evacuated with indentured servants to mars.

We never had a fucking chance, the rich control everything. I feel like I'm going insane.

And it's upsetting because all of this misinformation is exasperated by social media and the climate silicon valley assholes have created. For you to get by in science at this point your work needs to be something click-worthy or something that makes somebody money or could be used to justify making somebody money. Within the community we call the pressure to publish "publish or perish" and it leads to subpar work that isn't replicable. Science is supposed to be repeatable.

It's an issue in normal engineering as well, and in biology, and almost any other hard science. Hard computer science and theoretical mathematics has less of this issue as papers can just include their source code for replication purposes(though they often don't).

The phrase "Replication Crisis" was coined in the 2010s though has been an issue that's grown probably since the 1990s so it's largely a post internet issue and it's only gotten worse as more publication venues have been created, if a paper is rejected one place the author will just submit it somewhere else and it will get published regardless.
If you don't believe me regarding the presence of this in hard science I suggest reading the wikipedia page on the replication crisis, it's probably faster than reading a bunch of meta-analyses (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis)

As far as the types of people, maybe it's just the sample I've been exposed to, but most of the researchers I know just wanted to leave the world a little better than they left it. It probably varies in different fields though.

To a much lesser extent than the soft sciences or medicine.

I've finished reading, this is far more of a soft science problem than a hard science one, though there is overlap. It seems like Universities need to be more exclusive as opposed to job training programs that almost every nation believes them to be.

Nice to see another Bulgarian anon here. Your last years of high school reminded me of mine, except I also kept pretending to be on my phone 90% of the time to avoid people and distract my feelings of constant discomfort around them.

I also don't get treated my age, as I dress pretty much exactly like I did in high school. Some people can't believe I'm in college because of how young I look. Alot of Bulgarian girls seem to like making themselves look much older than they are but that can come off as trashy, so if it makes you feel any better, at least we are not in that boat. It's more important to project maturity from the inside and I think you're already capable of that if you're able to look into the future and behavore more responsibly than those people getting trashed every weekend, having unsafe sex, etc. just to "live for the moment". Those people's world isn't as great as it seems. I've learned to appreciate that, no matter how few friends I have, at least they are ones I can genuinely enjoy my time with and don't feel peer pressured around. With my friend group in high school, we could talk about the weirdest shit, and not feel judged around eachother. Having something like that to me is much more important, than hundreds of "friends" that only want to talk normie stuff like fashion, gossip, and boys.


Also, about your sexuality, it is important at some point to be honest with yourself or you are setting yourself up for a world of misery. Not sure about Bulgaria, since I stopped going to school there after 6th grade, but at least in the U.S. it has become an unspoken rule among young people that homophobia isn't cool so if you're based in a place like that then more people your age will be accepting than you think.

I’m starting to think less of him, I’m less interested in sex. He likes to do it in the mornings and I’ve literally started avoiding him while I get ready for work, like he doesn’t even wait until I’m gone.

I developed an enormous crush on one of my girl friends. I was thinking about her and our past and future interactions 24/7 like a lovestruck idiot. I'd suspected I was bisexual but no moid had ever made me feel that way and I'd never met a moid who was as good as her.

We both happened to go through rough patches at the same time so we fell out of contact, but her influence on me forced me to take good look at myself and admit that I was primarily a lesbian who'd just suffered a couple of mild puppy crushes on men despite them being men; I'd seen them as persons who just happened to be male while that girl's womanhood wasn't some happenstance but another part of her that I adored.

Anyway, we briefly reconnected several years later and that girl had become a FtM. I don't think that person is any worse now but that development made my previous thoughts about my sexuality completely absurd. I have no idea what to think about any of this and it keeps coming back and fucking me up.

Even if this is just a phase for him, I will admit his boyishness was a large part of his appeal back when he was a girl. The other person I've loved deeply in my life was also boyish girl and I accidentally referred to her as a boy a couple of times, which had originally led me to believe I mainly liked men, and only liked her because I considered her a boy on some level.

Feel you on the men having fucked up fetishes and wanting you to indulge. My ex confessed to me that he took advantage of a drunk girl at a party once and was "ashamed" of it, and still confessed to me that he had a rape fetish and wanted to fuck me in my sleep.

It's my own fault for eating so much high calorie food the past few months (bagels, ice cream, cheese cubes, bread, etc.) Now I have to eat disgusting rabbit food for the next month. The grocery store cashier probably thought I had an eating disorder. Luckily it's summer and all the produce is on sale.

There’s more pressure to be attractive and normal in a romantic context. If we are just friends I guess I can kind of cope and tell myself ‘who cares if I embarrass myself or say something cringe we’re just friends anyway’ but if we were dating I would be worrying about every interaction. I also fear rejection and the idea of being the ugly girl who constantly openly thirsts for and pursues the guy, even though he cannot stand her but puts up with her anyway. If we are just friends I can be flirty but also pretend we are just friends

this is not normal. this is disgusting and i'm horrified for you anon, he obviously doesn't have any respect for you, especially if the first thing he does is start masturbating while you're trying to get ready in the morning and have even resorted to avoiding him. why should you have to avoid him or not be able to go in the bedroom because he won't stop his chronic masturbation session? and no, asking for him to have breakfast and socialize like a normal fucking person is not asking for too much. he sounds like a coomer if i'm being honest

I always sabotage my own appearance and even health slightly. Part of me wants to be seen and part of me wants to be invisible.
I have accepted that I'm more of a wallflower and that it has its own appeal and that I can't force myself to look my best because it always backfires.
That being said, I wanna work on it all without pushing it and also get over my inhibitions lastingly.
In my area are some cute guys and they made eye contact and I wanna be able to put myself out there.
Yesterday, I fantasized about it a lot. I also thought about style again and doing something goth-adjacent with black and red colours.

>Part of me wants to be seen and part of me wants to be invisible.

I feel the same. It's paradoxical. I have always identified as an unseen observer. I have debilitating social anxiety, am mousy, soft-spoken, no physical presence. People have sat on me. I blend into the background. I am invisible.

I've overcompensated with a striking appearance, and it's worked, but the attention overwhelms me. Apart of me wants to disappear into the background again… but then again, I don't, because I'm lonely. I hate that I don't feel apart of anything.

I think I want to be recognized, but I am selective and controlling about the type of recognition I want. I want to be seen for my intellect, I want to connect with someone deeply, though it scares me, but I don't want to be objectified. I just don't know how to make people /see/ me in another way. Appearance is easy when you don't speak. Hey, look, I am here… oh, but don't aggressively court me /like that/.

No. I have a very troll-y/antagonistic sense of humor. I'm not overly-edgy or anything like those anti-politically correct cringelord that scream racial expletives, but I find wacky, off-the-wall occurrences in social interactions to be funny. Those overly polite people hate it. My ex-boyfriend reminded me of a prudish little grandma. It was kind of annoying. He'd always yell at me for posting those stupid memes of Indian men asking for bob and vagene in the group chat.

Thanks anon, it's been a rough few weeks. Mom seemed good the week prior but I visited her last sunday and she was really out of it. She really wants to leave the hospital too and it's worsening her mental state to be stuck inside. I am cautiously hopeful she'll get out this week but idk. My support network lately has been bad, I've been distant from my high school friends because we live far away and my two closest friends are going through their own stuff right now (cancer scares, school, infections).

I guess it's just one of those times where everything bad happens at once and you just have to hold on tight till you get through it. Not a whole lot to be done.

my kittens are in a bad living environment with my ex (beer, cigarettes, glass, food, urine on floor) and i know they are being neglected and he also does not work and soon cannot provide for them. ive been stressed when i lurk and seeing his posts on instagram documenting his living situation. i could not take the kittens when i left because his mom threatened me and would not be able to now as someone i live with is allergic. i cared for them when i lived there but now i keep crying over wanting to report this for abuse but im scared him or his mom will come after me somehow. i am states away but they have my information and i fear they will harass me or try to hurt me. do i let it be and pray? do i contact someone to get the animals? will they even take it serious if they are not being hit? please help. im losing sleep over this. i want them to be safe.

you can make a call to animal control, but their procedure varies wildly from city to city. if they're being neglected and visibly so, if they're a city that puts any emphasis on cats, there's a chance they'll care and do something about it, or at least potentially scare them into straightening up. some cities straight up do not care about cats at all and put all their emphasis on dogs, unfortunately. there are a lot of citizen rescue groups on facebook based on county or area that are full of extremely helpful and caring people, usually people who run no-kill shelters that help citizens save cats. you might be able to find people who know more about your specific area and who to contact, or they may even be willing to help you out personally. check citizen TNR and rescue groups on facebook, they should be able to steer you in the right direction. obviously i know you're not seeking TNR help, but these TNR groups are usually where really, really dedicated rescue people that go out of their way to help, are found. just put "TNR (your area)" on facebook. failing that, you can try AC.

After reading a bunch of posts and lurking forums about similar situations, I’m starting to realize my ex boyfriend was likely a covert narcissist. I never thought he could be a narcissist because he hated himself and I thought narcs were self obsessed and arrogant.

I was really traumatized by the relationship and certain things he did and said, the entire time he was undermining me, subtly trying to tear my self esteem to shreds and constantly trying to get back at me for perceived slights. I thought I was going crazy because he always played the victim when I challenged him on anything and made me seem like the bad guy, but it’s so weird seeing stories from other women who went through the exact same gaslighting shit. Such behavior makes no sense from a logical empathetic persons point of view, but seeing it from his warped narc perspective has helped me understand a lot.

In a low moment I looked at my old neighbors's social media again. They posted trashy pics on the roof. They used to torment me with noise and gaslighting when I still lived there and even complained about me complaining to the cops that disrupted the noise and the landlord. I thought about sending the post to the landlord as it's explicitly forbidden to go onto the roof because you could actually fall from it. then I thought I should move on. Then I sent the post with the name of one of the girls and a fake E-Mail added ("Greetings from the roof"). I still think I should move on and abstain from behaviour like this and not look at the social media of people I dislike but for the moment I'm not mad about my decision.

I guess it's true about having friends who you understand and don't have to pretend around. When I get jealous of people in different situations I forget that peer pressure and being known but not understood is lonely. People who you can be weird around, who like the real you.

I'm honest with myself about only liking girls, but I'm religious and don't want to live that life, even if it's difficult.

Also do you still go back to Bulgaria? My family left Sofia, but I don't know which part you're from. But if you do go back, please try the zombie game in the arcade in the paradise mall (sofia) because it's the best.

2010 era topic but I was just thinking today how funny it is that men think dickpics are the equivalent value of female nudes and that they send dickpics and expect us to get immediately aroused by their (usually mediocre) dicks.

Haha yeah, social anxiety is a bitch. At least I'm guessing yours may have been from it? High school is a weird time of particular self-consciousness for alot of people, any social anxiety disorder or not, so these particular behaviors could be normal even without one imo.

It can be very hard to find that kind of group, without the help of the right kind of person. I guess I got kind of lucky at the time because the other people in our friend group were people that my long-time friend already knew, so alot of his friends naturally became my friends too. If you have even just one very good, outgoing friend that makes it much easier to meet others you could become good friends with and that will be similar.

What religion is it, if you don't mind me asking? If it's Christianity, probably easier said than done, but you could consider practicing it more liberally. If bigoted Christians can choose to interpret the Bible to suit their ideas however they see fit, so can you. I don't see Holy Books to be something interpreted completely literally.

If you get in a relationship with a man as a lesbian, you will only make him and yourself miserable in the long run. Do you think you'll actually be able to satisfy him or yourself sexually? How do you feel about having sex with someone, potentially for the next 2-3+ years, when you're aversive to dicks? What about when he tries to be intimate with you in any other way? What about when he wants to have children? It's just not worth it imo.

Yes, we've gone back to Bulgaria to visit for most summers. I'm from Pleven. My mother likes to visit Sofia and my stepdad is from there, but I haven't been as often. Seems alot of folks are moving there though. I'll check it out next time I go. We don't get almost any of that cool stuff in Plevel. Heck, we didn't even have a McDonald's or anything there for the longest time. : (

I was sexually abused by a family member on my early teenage years. I had the courage to speak up after running from him and told my close family about it. As I was sobbing,detailing to my strict father how a elderly man sucked my boobs against my will and robbed my very first kiss, he looked with no expression.
The only words that left his mouth were 'why didn't you do anything?'.
Never told anyone about it, those feelings haven't even left my mouth. Even when I'm alone, I can't say it out loud.

You’re investing into a declining stock market, anon. Everyone’s desirability is bound to decline and crash.

Doesn't mean it isn't unfair that you now have to spend a lot of time and effort recovering from damage caused by other people, but I really think you can do it and it's not as hopeless as it seems. You're stressed out and probably still don't have a community around you that supports your growth, I know it's really hard to just reorient yourself and find a direction starting from what feels like nothing, and it may take a few attempts, but try to find things you want to learn and get better at and people who you can share and connect with. Doesn't have to be in academia, projects of your own will teach you more, and if you keep your eyes open for opportunities, you can build a career even outside formal credentials.

Fiance just left to catch a plane to go see his family after a grandparent died and another is in a coma. Yes I want him to be there for his family but I feel selfish for feeling so fucking sad about it.
A few days from now was our anniversary and we had huge plans for it and plans through the rest of the month and now it’s gone and I’m alone and I don’t even know for how long I’ll be alone.
Would have been nice to go to support him but too fucking bad his family has some weird vendetta against me and I would have been berated with high school level passive aggressive bullshit and overhear his father guilt tripping him to move back into their house despite him being an actual adult with a life and responsibilities.
