Decided to go out and be social and went and had wings with my local LARP community to introduce myself. Everyone seems chill and fun, and I'm looking forward to some fun RP and being able to put my creative and crafting skills, plus ridiculous collection of costume bits to use somewhere other than lolita.

I keep feeling bad about going to cons, buying cosplays/materials and spending money on stuff like this. People tell me I need to stop overworking and being too hard on myself and let myself live, that I'm at the prime age to live (20) before it's too late . but I just feel too awful especially being pretty poor amd having bills to pay. the guilt and anxiety consumes me too much.

>> No.10219006

Okay, so I cannot be the only one who feels really bad for the older people that sit around at conventions because their 30 year old incel son can't drive and wanted to go to a convention right? At colossalcon there was a woman who was clearly disabled, that sat in the same position for probably 12 whole hours. Everytime I passed her she looked so bored and miserable. I almost threw off my cosplay to change into normie clothes and hang out with her. I suppose I can't assume anything, but I'm pretty sure she was there with a much older guy who just left her there and used her for a ride at the end of the day.
You fucking weeaboos need to learn to drive, and stop relying on your moms/grandmothers to go somewhere. It's pathetic and makes you look like a huge virgin. They shouldn't have to sit at a convention for 12 hours while you go and try to seduce a sexy cosplayer to bring home with you.

I got diagnosed with psoriasis yesterday and I'm pretty down about it. I was hoping these patches on my skin were something that could be cleared up easily but they aren't responding to weaker steroids so they're putting me on strong (and expensive) ones. Most of the plaques are on my elbows and shins so I can do an okay job covering them in Lolita but I'm getting really self conscious.

If it's bothering you that much, do a little of both, to ease your conscience? Write down some goals you want to accomplish, but don't make them too big. One goal for fun, and one goal for making progress in your life. It could be something like starting a savings account or it could be just using a little out of each check to put into things that make your home nicer. But in the end, if you're not the type of person that wants those things, there is nothing wrong with having fun with your hobbies. And fwiw, I think 30s are your prime, honestly. Those people are probably afraid they won't be able to do anything fun at 30, but the reality is that's when you're more able to do things you couldn't in your 20s.

I want to wear lolita more, but on top of the hot weather is my horrible self esteem. I’m super self conscious about my face and I’m always worried I’ll be judged for a butter face I can’t help.

I'm currently a NEET and borderline hikki and the biggest thing keeping me applying to more shitty jobs is wanting more brand money. Currently, positive interactions with online lolita communities and finding and bookmarking cute pieces on sale are two of the biggest seratonin boosts I can get.

i feel you anon, I have heavy psoriasis all along my hairline and some spots on my scalp. Can't tell you how mortifying it is to have someone pick stuff out of my hair thinking it's lint or something but it's actually a chunk of my skin.

People are going to give you a whole lot of useless advice on how to treat it or they will confuse it with eczema. don't let it get to you - I used to get super triggered because people were convinced i had dandruff and i "wasn't trying hard enough to get rid of it".

Do whatever you need to feel comfortable in your own skin and don't feel the need to reason with others about it. personally, i just wear hats and keep my bangs long - the less people see, the less they will comment. atleast in lolita i can slap on a wig and enough distracting headwear, that's how i manage ~_~

Feels,
I wanna open up a resin shop just to try to even out costs for how expensive my resin/jewelry making hobby is becoming. Wouldn't know if its worth it though, with how saturated etsy is.

obviously this isn't for everybody, but why not go into a clinic and see what you can change? It's already intervening in the way you enjoy your hobbies. Lolita is an aesthetic based hobby, so at its core, if you don't like the way you look, you'll have a harder time having fun.

First off, I'm a lesbian.

We met in college, back when I wore lolita a couple times every week. We were in the same class, and we both engaged with the course material and had really interesting discussions, to the extent where we'd walk together to my next class to continue them. There was a free classical music event, so I suggested that we go together, not realizing this was a date. We've been dating for about two years.

there's this skinny 16 year old girl I met at a con that's already emancipated, studying abroad, engaged, she's pretty, she's skinny, she's finished most of her HS subjects early, she's a popular cosplayer, meanwhile I'm much older, getting fat, ugly, and a failure, I bet she was sneering about me with her friends at how ugly me and my cosplay was, and while I don't hate her (I think) ever since i met her and started following her something flipped a switch in me (le triggered meme, I guess) and I've been feeling worse and worse. I've been noticing every pretty skinny girl and ripped handsome guy around me and being envious and hating myself so much as if this wasn't a thing already my entire life.

What's worse is I've been gaining so much weight for no apparent reason I can't fit into my clothes anymore. It's so fucking humiliating. What's the point of even investing in burando if I'm a fatass.

I used to eat whatever I want, was MUCH less active than I am now, and was an absolute skellychan. What the hell happened?

I really don’t say this out loud but...I only like lolita on myself, the models (no matter what race, I don’t care about azns because normal japs look fat and ugly in those clothes too) and some non-famous super good looking people but they actually never wear it. I’ve never seen a good looking lolita in comms or online. As for cgl it seems to me since none of you have a taste it’s all about passing for lolita but never wearing it aesthetically, which is odd since the websites of burando do show wearing advice. Even for a fucking bag. Nobody here dresses properly that’s for sure. I don’t care about ita or what passes for lolita, but I just don’t find any of the people’s tastes here nice. I’m not experienced myself compared to mana and I don’t think since most spergs can’t handle criticism would agree but this is what I think. I think this with normie fashion too actually but lolita will always be “OTT” so it’s more annoying. At the same time this is good because it makes me feel better but I am getting older so no longer am I petty I just want you all to dress better.

Feeling completely alone in a sea of people is normal, feeling invisible is also normal.
I get why you're feeling pushed out, but people still notice you, others respect you moreso, but now less random people have demands on you and your time.
Be around the people that care about and validate you.
Everyone wants a feeling of belonging, a lot of people feel the way you do, so if you don't have people to go to, step outside your comfort zone and reach out. You'd be surprised what you'll get into.

You must be trying to make things well beyond your skill levels. Many fabricating and crafting skills take practice. Start smaller, learn your skills, practice.

Saw a cosplay ’performance’ on Instagram, she made a Sakizo design and was lip synching. The costume and wig were well made, it was a very pretty costume. But I feel like hyping up this kind of ’performance’ as some sort of high artistry is a bit lame. She didn't even dance.

We get it, you are consumed with jealousy. Big deal. It's a bad trait and it will just keep you stuck. Do something about it besides complain. Several people have commented to you but the bottom line is that you are wrecking yourself with your own fucked up thinking. Stop focusing on other people and things outside yourself and focus on becoming the best YOU that you can be. Envy is not only deathly poison, it steals away your own life because you are constantly comparing your insides to someone else’s outsides, and that keeps you stuck not ever improving yourself to reach your own potential. Everyone's path is different. Walk your own path and stop giving free rent in your headspace to foolish comparisons. She is herself, you are yourself. In life, someone is _always_ going to have something that might seem ’better’, but many very successful people got that way by making the most of and valuing their own opportunities, maximizing their own good things, not by ignoring them and coveting someone else’s. It's literally a waste of your time that could be spent bettering yourself instead.

You cannot prove that it is meant to kill off any race more than another or that it is really eugenics. Pro choicers have to make their own choices in life with their doctors. Whether it is a mistake or not again isn't up to anyone else. Its whatever people choose to do for themselves. Wouldn't that make black women more empowered if anything in your own words too? No one is forced into anything but education on birth control methods etc is a good thing and really in the grand scheme of things Eugenics is ultimately a good thing too. I don't think any child deserves to be born with debilitating diseases if that can be avoided . No one should be forced to risk going to term since it can put a heavy toll on any woman and the issues that can happen postpartum too.

My sister is like 5 years younger than me, and I went through a similar slump around the time I was heading into my mid-20s and she was a on the verge of adulthood and everyone's golden-child. I went through a "I'm not a youthful cool teen anymore" crisis and thought life was over and ballooned up to my highest weight ever and was off again on again with my longterm SO. She was pretty, 100 pounds wet, and still blonde unlike my hair when turned super dark and ashy.

Longstory short I came out of the slump and never gained that weight back while my sister dropped out of school, fell into a bad crowd and super-heavy drugs and then went to jail on dealer charges. After she got out she married someone in her recovery program and had 2 kids a few years later and her body is a complete wreck now. Most people now think I am the younger sister.

You can effectively be young, healthy, and attractive at any age if you take care of yourself and pick up a few tricks and are determined enough. Don't let petty comparisons tank your motivation and allow you to take the easy road of self-pity and failure.

Recently I've been consumed by pipe dreams of my ideal house. My mind is a mess of ideas for interior or exterior decor. Wardrobes, bathrooms, kitchen, everything goes and I toss and turn my power level to see what sticks. Lolita and weebshit will inevitably be part of my life.

But my most disturbing and fascinating idea is that I want a stuffed seagull. A literal preserved animal corpse on display on some shelf. It's partly because of this place, I won't deny. Partly because despite their behaviour, seagulls are very beautiful birds. Their sleek shape, simple colour and characteristic expression sparks joy in my ideas of a perfect home...
How the fuck do I go through with this stupid dream? Is it hard to take care of taxidermy? Am I utterly tasteless?

I met a guy who is really cute and likes a lot of the same obscure nerdy things I do. I think he’s got potential to be an awesome friend that I can hang out with at cons and cosplay with, but because he’s cute I’m kind of looking at him like “maybe potential boyfriend someday?”
Only problem is that he’s like a decade younger than me. He’s old enough to vote and all, but I still don’t think it’s a good idea. So here I am trying to will these weird feelings to die so I can be his friend without it being weird, when out of the blue he texts that he misses me and wants to hang out so we can discuss the ending to this anime we both watch. I definitely want to meet up to nerd out but I’m hesitant because the feelings are lingering and I don’t think now is the time to see his face. He throws his schedule at me and seems so eager to hang out that it makes me feel even more awkward. I’m sure these romantic feelings are mixed up from being super excited to meet someone I have a lot in common with. But I’m still not about to see him until the heat dies down.

Thanks anon! I’m content with being his friend for now, he’s a really cool person and I’d hate to ruin our chances of being good friends over a failed shot at a relationship
>>10221846
I’m on the fence on if I’d like to be the more mature one or not. I like having control in a relationship, which is a really toxic trait of mine that I’m trying to stop. So sometimes I wonder if I’m gravitating towards him because since he’s younger, he’d give me more control? But with that being said, especially what you wrote about our priorities potentially being different, it could also be a good opportunity for me to learn how to not be a control freak. I’ve been single for a while now and have been fixated on my personal goals in life. So much so that I don’t think any partner, whether they be younger or older, could shake me from them. But maybe dating someone younger would be a fun change since he seems to be really goal oriented as well.

Either way I guess we’ll find out because I don’t intend on not being his friend because my backwater brain caught feelings lol. Maybe it could turn into a relationship in the future, maybe not.

So, he is 18 and you are 29? Fling, maybe. LTR, nah, hard pass on that. He's too young at this stage of his life and still has school, then his career to establish. If it was 28 and 39 or anything older it wouldn't be so unusual. You'd have more in common at those life stages.

My partner is 10 years younger. I only considered him because he was already very strongly established in his career track already (so a relationship would not derail that part of his life and his career goals) and because he pursued me pretty singlemindedly. We were friends in a group, that's how I met him. At first I tried to convince him that someone a bit younger than he is would be better but he convinced me that he did not want someone younger. We had many of the same life goals already in common so it worked and here we are some years later, very happy.

Huh, as a guy (30) i feel like an immense creep even thinking about dating someone significantly (more than 3 years) younger than myself. Though, not that it matters because i have weird trauma when it comes to hitting on/flirting with women, especially with online dating, partially thanks to admitting i was Bi on a dating site in the past, and being involved with the local furry group. Both of which involved men acting in a very predatory manner towards me and now i feel that almost all women are constantly assaulted by men like this and i'd just be part of the creepy disgusting noise.

I feel like she would have said ’early 20’s’ if he was 20 or over. I don't have a problem with the idea of a 10 year age gap in general if the younger one is over 25, any younger and it risks getting into the question of ’well are they established enough on their own yet and mature enough that the gap doesn't really matter?’. Maturity and life events vary from person to person and I'm sure there are exceptions. But in general, I don't think an 11 year gap with either partner being only 18 is so good. At 29, I personally am not at all attracted to any 18yo guys as a dating prospect though. I know a few and we really do not have much in common even though we may like a lot of the same things.

>> No.10222138

At this age, you are right to feel this way, there's usually a big maturity gap. But you really sound like you've got a lot of issues to settle within yourself first anyway so by 33 or so, dating anyone over 27 will give you a wider dating pool.
Women are usually always aware, and yep, a lot of creepy noise is constantly playing in the dating pool.

- Don't commission someone who offers emergency commissions. That's pure proof they already aren't handling things well because they are depending emergency commissions.
- Don't commission friends. At best, completely awkward if something goes wrong. If it goes badly, the friendship nearly always suffers or dies over it. At this point you can't ask a refund because they may finish it in time, but if they don't, you're screwed for your con and still have the awkward problem of refund to deal with, and I'm betting they will not have the money then either.

You are correct. Focusing on these things and becoming bitter like this changes you, immersing yourself in this world normalizes it when it's anything but normal, and yep, people can sense it. Fortunately it's reversible if you stop your miserable hatred for people on the internet that you don't even know.

We still love her a lot, since she’s still a good friend and I’ve tried to hint that she needs to calm down because she is hurting the people around her with her megalomania, but she just ends up guilting me. It’s not the first time a friend gets like this the moment they get a lot of followers on social media, and I usually just distance myself and take a backseat in watching them burn all their bridges, but in this I kinda want to hold some sort of intervention or something so we can make her understand that she is ruining her own social life but she would probably just make herself out to be a victim since she’s sometimes unable to take responsibility for her own actions.

Pretty much everyone who frequents lolcow and kiwi are bitter, hateful, self loathing people. Here there are some exceptions because you have things like the DD thread or draw thread where people actively try and help others in a positive manner, but it can be tricky to keep the balance still. I’d suggest to you that you stop sinking your time into places that actively encourage spite and bitterness. Try doing things to bring other people up, volunteer if you can. You’ll feel better about yourself and those around you. If you absolutely *need* a drama fix watch YouTube drama vids. They’re still not good to be actively involved in but there’s not as much of a hateful element as the farms.

>The feeling of being in customs hell waiting for your dress to leave their sticky claws
Turns out because I didn’t pick it up in time it’s being sent back to the origin country. Oops forgot to mention one little detail, I tried multiple fucking times to pick it up using every proof of identification they asked of me and it still wasn’t good enough so it’s being sent back and will have to be reshipped. Right now they want the senders postal service to contact them and only then they’ll stop the package from leaving the country. Bunch of imbeciles. If I have the receipt of proof of my purchase through PayPal, multiple copies of different ID stating my name and addresses on them, that should be reason enough to give me my package! Feels bad man, Chronopost is the fucking worst. It’s a dress, not a wartime chemical agent.

Sounds like a little bit of paranoia creeping in. Just breathe and think about the last time you saw it. Getting anxious and over emotional will just hinder you so keep your cool. Calmly look for it in your house again, ask ex if he’s seen it, as your mother if she’s seen it. None of this has to happen in a day, but just a little progress is better than none. If you can’t find it after that then that’s okay too, you’ll always be able to get the dress from a reseller.

I just broke up with my boyfriend of two years and now I'm moving back in with my parents. My mother is already overwhelmed with the stuff I'm bringing home, and I haven't even started bringing over my lolita and j-fash items. I'm going to have to sell things that I'm not ready to sell. All of this on top of my already overwhelming depression and anxiety is going to slow my recovery big time.

Don't do it. You're already saying you're not ready to sell these items, and you dread the anxiety that it will bring.

Put your lolita items and j-fash stuff in boxes. Pack them neatly with the intent to be happy when you open the box again. Preferably divide it into smaller themed boxes, and keep a list of what lies where. Next step is to store them. If you can't pay for a storage unit, ask many of your friends to keep one box each. That was no one will be overwhelmed or intruded upon. You need some time to get back on your feet, and if your friends are willing to hold on to your stuff while you do that they're good friends.

Please don't sell if it brings you sorrow.

Not as much as you might think, but if you eat mostly nutritionless junk, it adds up fast and still leaves your body craving more because you have not properly fueled it with the vitamin and minerals it needs to function. Each of these meals already has over 1/2 the calories most average people need each DAY. A fairly sedentary woman in her mid-20’s will need less. That’s with medium fries and drink. No dessert.

>> No.10224059

Pack and store things you do not immediately need if you can, prioritizing useable things that will get you functioning, like a capsule wardrobe of your favorite everyday wearable stuff. If there is no storage in your family home or you can’t afford to rent one, do Konmari and sell the excess. The hard truth is that you can’t expect your parents to just re-absorb your own complete cache of possessions once you have moved out as an adult. Especially if storage is not readily available in their house and your items are already overwhelming your mother. Items are things, your focus should be getting functional again as a person so you have control of your depression and anxiety and can move out on your own quickly instead of being focused on ‘saving your stuff’. It’s stuff.

I've got a ton of projects and ideas I want to make happen and have the money and skills to do, but my living situation gives me basically no useable time. Currently living with family acting in a caretaker role which keeps me busy throughout the day. Anytime I'm able to work on something creative, I get interrupted by family members or by the caretaking responsibilities. No one respects my time, emotional needs, or goals and its lead me into a hefty bout of depression. I feel so numb, and I have no one to talk to - kind of dont even want to talk to anyone, considering most of my friends are fair weather fuckheads or are too autistic to understand what I'm going through. The only good ones, I've talked their ears off already and it just makes me feel embarrassed to admit that I'm so pathetic and weak that I would even need emotional support in the first place. Who needs friends anyway? They just leave you eventually anyway or end up being lowkey self absorbed shitheads. At least I have my husband at the end of the day. But hes having just as rough a time as I am lately.

She refuses help from them, she used to be a nurse and she uses it as her excuse as to pick apart their treatment. She has dementia and has medicine for it, but she’s coherent enough to convince her doctors she’s in her right mind. But they don’t see her in her day to day life. If I’m being completely transparent, she’s always had a mean side to her, it’s just it’s exacerbated with the dementia issues. But I still don’t think in the moments where she’s physically hurt me she is in control, because she was never physically abusive to me before only verbally so.
