Who would have thought that a hobby where people get attention and ego boosts attracts people who feed off of attention and ego boosting

>Charlie has seemingly stopped wearing lolita and making videos

Yeah She's not necessarily leaving lolita but shes not really wearing it anymore and wants to make videos with other fashions according to her most recent video.
which is kinda lame but whatever.

I wish I could earn money with buying brand and planning coords. I have no other talents or skills and everyone in my age is leagues ahead of me.

this is just getting really sad bb
/cgl/ isn't even a house, it's a beach inhabited by salty whales and seagulls

Woops i said good times twice like an idiot.

Anyway, Facebook groups lack something and it'll never be the same as Livejournal EGL, sigh.

Belgium is soooo goddamn boring con wise.
I went to Made In Asia like three times. First was really fun because i was a little weeb,it was my first con and it was one of the first MIA ever. Second was meh,same thing but hey. And third was this year I was bored to death and just went home after 4 hours.
Doesnt help all my friends live in France and I have no friends in the con scene here.

>Taobao order shipped a week ago
>It contains very important elements for my birthday coord to match my friend who share the same birthday as me
>Also contain my presents for her
>Tracking still cant find anything as if carrier didn't accept it yet
>Taobaotrends don't answer my mail
>Find out they have a chinese holiday that ends on the 7th october
>Birthday is next saturday
It's not going to arrive in time isn't it?

>september is there ahoy!
>like every year i have those awful depressing nightmares
>got violently bullied in high school and september "triggers" those memories
>made it out of depression and all the awful things now but i feel so sad and empty at that time of the year
>feeling super tired, feels lazy and feels awful for being lazy
>anxious over absolutely silly things like a taobao order
>not telling anyone or talking about it because i don't want to be a bother
>feels like a bother in general
>only time i talked about it all i have is a "hang in there" which is nice but doesnt help much
I am probably sounding like a total (ungrateful and whiny) bitch rn.
I just want some positive attention.
Like getting cuddled,getting my head pet,being told i am lovable,...

It's ok, I am too. I can imagine mu nervously taking cgl (dressed in attention grabbing lolita) out to a local record shop, and giving her suggestions for stuff to listen to while she's making cosplay, and as the relationship progresses, he starts making music dedicated to his favorite weeb.

>tfw no mu qt3.14 bf to swap mix-tapes with

I'm glad that the fine print isn't too fine to read. I wanted to go there in person since it's my day off, but it's pouring out and there's even a flood warning.

>oh well
>at least I'll have one more day left until it's over

Anons i am SO lost right now.
>am a grill,old school lolita
>mainly attracted by girls
>did the hanky panky with another lita
>enjoyed it greatly she was so sweet and kind for my first time
>but sometimes i think about male genitals or a male when i touch myself
>also feel mayybe comfortable having a "daddy/dom/.." kind of relationship with one
>but dont see myself in a real relationship with one
>maybe except from this guy that makes my knees go weak
>but i like girls better and feel more comfortable
>or do i..?
I am so lost what is happening to me...i feel like crying i am just scared lately and lost since i discovered my dom (knew him since three years,but we only began that like beginning of summer) was a psycho fapping to child porn, me and the other "toys" ran away from him. I just feel lost and alone. I feel disgusting and ashamed i cry since days...Cant sleep

I can put up with con-blues, even though I hate it, but I forget that I can get those feels after going to meetups.

Lately i often get wet dreams...
Last night there was some tentacle girl(???) catching me in a big mansion where i am in lolita,searching for clues (i am an investigator from the victorian era or something) and suddenly goes behind me and
whispers to my ears how daring i am to be so nosy before i tell it to fuck off and leave me and how such an arrogant girl deserves punishment before taking some clothes off my body,ripping some parts of my brand to get my small chest and such naked ,holding me in the air before rubbing its tentacles against my.lady parts,spanking me and licking my neck and i resist as it tries harder until i cant take it and neary cums then wake up with my panties wet.
What do i do?

Goddammit. I got an email back from the job I wanted and didn't make the cut. I really want a job in event planning.

Oh well. Here's to hoping I get the 2nd interview from the bank job. Ugh.

>have a special someone in Portland
>want to travel there sometime next year
>curious about what the current Portland area comm is like now as compared to when I started getting into lolita 8 years ago
>stumble upon a picture of a recent meetup
>sounded fun and I'm sure they seem like nice people, but
>half of the people in the group photo looked like they put thought and effort into their outfits
>tfw this isn't the Oregon lolitas I remember

I saw that their fb group page has over 200 members. Not surprised that Ashlee stuck around, but I kind of missed how active she was; I must be out of the loop, but I haven't seen much of her hipster lookbook posts either (ha, I sound like a total creeper; I just like her outfits, even though I don't wear pastel vomit).
Seeing how big they are, I wonder if there's a fringe group of people who actively attend and create meets and if there is a group of permanent itas like NYC/Upstate New York.

>tfw would like to move to that area someday (or anywhere else for that matter, so long as the career opportunities exist)
>tfw would have to let go of the community I've spent years creating and the let go of the friendships I've fostered

Also
>so many fucking sweets in the last few weeks:
>macarons and cakes for graduation, pumpkin pie, holiday log cake, cookies, etc.
>tfw shark week = feeling extra bloated
>tfw going to a con in a few weeks

Same and having dark hair over lighter skin makes them appear worse. I usually get my upper lip hair threaded. That area's gotten pretty toughen up over the years of doing it that I can manage to tweeze a good number myself. I think it's better than getting it waxed because it's easier to remove the details. If I could afford to, I'd probably go through electrolysis for a more permanent removal. I try to leave my arms alone, but waxing or sugaring seems to be most effective and I usually reserve that method for the summer.

>None of my friends have never acknowledged it and get really flustered if I bring it up.

Oooh, I hate this feel. I don't have much of a problem with my nose (other than keeping glasses up on a low nose bridge), but I absolutely hate my lower jaw. I went through my entire childhood to adolescence going through corrective dental appliances (from the orthodontic face mask to several teeth removals and braces), and just after high school, I got more news about my misaligned lower jaw. Unless I point it out to others or if I'm around someone who knows a thing or two about dentistry, no one believes me that it's fucked up.
I absolutely hate having pictures taken. I've managed to figure out a decent angle, but it doesn't hide the fact that when I smile, my lower jaw juts out.

Plainly coordinated lolitas unite!

>tfw most everyone in the comm wears an ott version of their favorite style and own a lot of brand (and very often the latest print)

>I own mostly brand too
>Only printed items are boring florals
>Try to jazz up an outfit, but take everything off, go to a meet and feel under-dressed.

Oh well. At least my comm isn't mean over something dumb like a plain outfit, as far as I know. It's just a weird feeling is all.

Oh man, I want this kind of room.

>tfw Shabby chic is your weakness

I always think Im the best dressed of my comm when I see the pictures after the meets.
They all worship bodyline (the ugly ones, I do have some classic bodyline too, but I know about the sad quality) and the few that wear brand seems like they choose the shitty looking ones or just coord them bad.

>mfw they think they know so much about lolita fashion
>the girl who thinks is in charge is a huge bitch and feels entitled to treat everyone bad like the waiters and the restaurant or the person from parking lots with the excuse that "because we dress different they need to give us the same treatment and respect"
>mfw nobody was treating her bad, she just like demeaning people in her frills and makes me feel so embarrassed about it, lolitas arent all bitches...
>mfw I felt so uncomfortable to be seen with a person like her
>they laugh about other girls coords meanwhile I could see the glue in their handmade headbows and the cheap rings and necklaces
>mfw I feel flawless even though I know I can do much better

I always get home feeling a bit empty inside, not being able to help them because they wont listen to what I say because Im new to the comm (used to be lone lolita) and also because I have no mentor to teach me more about the fashion, it depresses me because I was looking forward to a "senpai-chan" in this comm.


I love wearing lolita but they are holding me back... and shaming the fashion.

Ah one more till my completed bach, I'm not close to deem myself any sort of qualified professional yet, but to hear this when I'm with co workers at my current poop-tier job or bearing these qualified opinions from professional "friends of friends" the exact age as myself or a couple years older, there's literally nothing you can say. Because you're the funny dressed one and that's all that matters.
