I've always found it confusing how this chart correlates facial features with hygiene. I'm probably a 6/10 going by the faces of the girls in that rank but I'm notoriously fussy about hygiene and flattering clothes. On the other hand I know a girl who would be a 9/10 and flew all over Europe to work as a model but, when not 'on the job', would go for days without showering, routinely murdered her hair with bleach (the main reason she stopped modeling) and had body hair denser than some dudes I know. There might be a slight correlation regarding very fat/unattractive girls who no longer give a fuck but overall it makes no sense to link the two.

Worst is all the shit I get for dressing cute. "Why do you hide you body?" "Why don't you show more of your tits?" "You could look so sexy!!", etc. I don't want to look sexy. I can't pull it off, I don't have any sexy vibes, and I don't feel comfortable dressed that way. I just want my cute clothes. But as soon as you got some boobs, people expect you to show them off for the sake of humanity or whatever.

Anon it's a shitty chart from the internet, made by men who probably have no idea about hygiene anyway (and also stuff like make up, shape wear, push up bras et ceterea. We all know that 4/10 that is suddenly 7/10 with make up and the right clothes). Take it with a huge grain of salt.

I never got the hype around Ryan Gosling, for instance. His eyes are squinty and too close together and his jaw is practically nonexistent - he's all chin. And even that is wonky.

Of course there are some general things that make people universally (un)attractive. We all look at symmetry and certain ratios that suggest there weren't any significant developmental problems, but beyond that it's all personal preference. Also both charts predominantly feature white people and someone who grew up surrounded by people of another race, and therefore a different standard of common facial features, will have different preferences.
The people who put these charts together are probably fat neckbeard spergs anyway.

Seriously, I'm the ugly friend too.
I can spend 2 hours on hair, nails, make up, getting dressed in cute, fitting and probably expensive clothes and my pretty friend can get away with throwing on some tshirt and leggings, no make up or anything and STILL recieve a million compliments from strangers, girls, boys, bartenders, whatever.

And since she has always been a little uncomfortable with dudes she would always request that I come as well. Which resulted in that the dude interested in her had to get a friend to pity double date me. Fun.
I'm not even hideous, I'm just totally the ugly friend in her shadow. We are both asian but she is small and petite and I'm 5'3, almost as tall as many dudes in Asia. Feels bad.

Recently my confidence is just really low. I take care of myself and I usually feel pretty and people sometimes tell me I'm pretty, but in my head it just feels like things you say because you are supposed to say them.

It's funny Anon, but my pretty friend already knows about this, and has incredible anxiety over losing her looks despite being only in her early twenties. She is seeing a therapist right now for various reasons but this is one of the main reasons she started seeing a shrink.

You're right. I think the problem is that I somehow managed to surround myself with teachers and doctors and human rights activists and scientists who are working on shit like cures for neurodegenerative diseases so compared to them I feel like such a waste of space. My parents always told me I was intelligent and would grow up to do great things but now that I'm actually trying I realize that I'm not that intelligent at all. I'm not smart enough to be a scientist but I'm not dumb enough to be blissfully unaware of how useless I am. It sucks.

I feel you there, sis. It's just part of growing up - almost everyone I know was told that too, now we are adults and suddenly realize we are not the special snowflake our parents told us we were.

>I just sort of hope that my kids end up inheriting my partner's intelligence and ambition and follow in his footsteps so that I will have contributed at least something to the world. Having children is pretty much the only thing he isn't able to do without me.
Come on, don't be so harsh on yourself. There is so much wrong and stupid within that I can't even properly begin. Just because you did not invent a rocket that goes to mars or cured Ebola doesn't mean you are useless and your children will be the only thing you contributed to the world. With that thinking, I predict your children won't have the healthiest attitude themselves, by the way.

I have barely any con friends as of yet, granted I've only been to two cons and am just getting into cosplay (only one built so far), it just feels so vast I can't talk to everybody and I don't entirely know what to do. I recently distanced myself from all my old friends because they started getting into rough shit like stealing and selling Xanax, I didn't want anything to do with them. Always been a closet weeb and now I'm just being more open about it. Also how do you keep in touch with people, is it weird to ask for someone's FB or # after one or two days of con? I can throw some serious parties (which I've seen on other threads is a plus) also I've been regarded as a decent looking guy on other threads here as well. Ive got money as well as a large truck and a motorcycle for transportation and pops' job gets us various hotel points like crazy (another plus I guess). I just really don't know where to start

You sound like a creep, and the women around you can probably sense that. I'm 100% positive you don't have any female friends you're close to, but on the vanishingly rare chance you do, ask them to be honest with you about what you can do to be less of a walking turn-off.

No girl I know expects the guy to buy them $$$ gifts on every occasion, and none of the girls I know would appreciate dating a guy only becuase they are poor, and therefore they have to be grateful for every like penny you spend on them like that is a measurement of a good relationship.

It's not just about your ex, you know. You're a person too and your feelings evidently were equally as hurt by an action that was perhaps rushed, impulsive, or forced upon you in a tense situation.

Yes, it's a shame that your ex was devastated. But you know something? Emotionally stable people eventually get over it and forgive it.
If you two weren't married, had nothing to divide upon ending the relationship, didn't develop any STDs, and you didn't get knocked up then what was really lost that cannot be healed with time? Some trust issues? Kid stuff compared to some truly devastating challenges that you may come to face yet.

To me it sounds like you need some time to figure things out away from this friend.

You don't need to be alone or to ignore them entirely, but it sounds like you're too supportive and nice to other people for your own good.
If you would like to become more charismatic, it is a skill you can learn, and you have the power of the internet and a bunch of people willing to give you pointers. The key to charisma is confidence in yourself.
Your friend is attractive more because she has something to offer others as opposed to just being pretty, she holds a conversation well, she's entertaining, or she just listens better.

Do something that makes you happy outside of your time spent with this friend, it will help you develop yourself outside of her sphere of influence. If you pick something with a strong community around it, you'll have things to talk about with complete strangers, and you'll be offering more to the table that just your looks alone.

Still Anon, I know what you mean but it makes you sound incredible awkward and kinda douchey. Money does not determine a girl's character.

I feel the same way sometimes for the same reasons. All of the people I am surrounded by make money and are really talented in the tech field and I'm still just a bottom barrel cashier.

The way I cope with my goals being so far from reality is I started making a garden, not physically, I live in an apartment, but I've created a list of all the plants I want to grow.
Over half of them are poisonous as I've come to realize, so I've been researching their toxins and learning about biology here and there that will doubtlessly be of use sometime later.
Actually I've started looking into becoming a Toxicologist because of my little garden idea.

You don't have to start big, you don't have to be a big person to do great things, just start small.
I have no idea what my work will accomplish later, and I can hazard a guess to say your friends didn't either when they started.

Chill out and learn to accept yourself, if you can't be a scientist, make the best goddamn bread this side of the hill, or knit the fluffiest socks, or have the best 'good night' song.
You could even get really good at persuasive essays and do blog journalism.
Who knows?
You might have a sharpshooter's eye and would be great at archery or rifle shooting, but you've never done it so you don't know.
You don't have to be perfect, just know what your demons are and don't let them speak for you.
You'll be a better person, and your kids will learn from you that imperfection is human.

See, I thought that way until I almost did it and I came to realize it's hardly that simple in life.

Yes, some people *are* just cunts with poor impulse control. Some people really are just uncaring, or actively want to hurt you, but for majority of the time a relationship's dynamic will turn out to be a lot more complex.

Yes, it's good that you'd never do it, you can feel good about that, but you don't have to set it aside as only committed by some special, terrible group of people.

I almost cheated on my partner, and later came to find out that at some point, I had been cheated on. I can't even describe all the feels, there's a lot involved in there that's too tl;dr for this post. But right now our relationship is so freaking good that if that's what had to happen to get us to this point, then so be it. People make shitty decisions, they hurt each other.

She's actually moving away in a few months for a while, so we are definitely getting time away from each other.

She's a good listener, other than that she is awkward and shy in a good kind of quirky way. Guys eat it right up and want to protect her. Heck I'm protecting her half the time from creeps at cons and what not. We have gone through a lot together and you are right that I always want to be nice and supportive of my friends, to the degree that It might not be that good for me. (I'm basically the non-boyfriend girldude in our bromance. I'm guessing it might not be surprising to say I always cosplay the dominant dudes when we pair cosplay?)

And the more I write the more I realize that it will definitely be good for us to be apart for a while. I guess I'm kinda jealous things always happen around her? Which is weird since I'm sure she feels the same. I have a lot of things she feels she lacks.

I have low self-esteem but high confidence most of the time. (The bad achievement-based type of confidence that shatters as soon as you fail at something.) I'm working on it. Books and the internet help. Felt nice just writing about it. Thank you for reading and taking the time to reply.

Apparently, it's considered a cosmetic problem (even though I am diagnosed with TMJ and symptoms could worsen with age), but if my jaw gets injured, my insurance should be able to cover a majority of it, and this is why I ride my bike without a helmet.

Probably because she's used to getting more negative comments than positive ones so when she sees someone checking her out she make run for it before that person gets the chance to ridicule and insult her. Same reason you often see alt girls with big headphones and resting bitchface. It sucks that it makes us unapproachable, but keeping assholes at bay is often more important if we want to stay sane.

I don't know how to convince myself that my boyfriend treats me like shit and I should leave him. I tried to detach myself from him and it only made me cling on to him more.

>Tells me how stupid I am
>When he phones me while he's hanging out with his friends he'll yell at me and make me look like an idiot
>Calls me a cunt, a bitch, a retard, a tool, you name it and he's probably called me it on several occasions
>He has a terrible temper, but once he's seen he drove me to tears by how he treats me he'll apologize
>Has been spending very little time with me lately
>I don't get why I love him
>I don't even know if I love him, or if I'm just clinging on to someone for emotional comfort
>While he's away I try to tell myself to just think of all the shit he puts me through and forget about him
>I end up doing the opposite

God, I feel like I'm going fucking crazy. I don't have a single person in my life except for him. Not one. I try to take my mind off him by doing something else, but I can't! I end up blaming myself when he's the one who fucking treats me like shit. It's as if I'm having a battle with myself.

I always avoid looking into people's faces, I always walk fast, listen to music and put on a big bitchface to keep assholes, creepers and unwanted comments away. It's sad but that's what you have to do once you decide wearing something attention grabbing. I probably missed a lot of people wanting to compliment/talk to me without intending to do so...

This is literally the biggest reason why he has so much power over you and you can't seem to leave. Not having anybody, especially not IRL, means the worst part of an abusive relationship (the breakup) will become even more difficult.

Yeah, we're required to submit our official scores, unfortunately.

I'm holding out hope because I know some classmates of mine who applied last year with 'barely passed' scores and still got interviews, even though they were applying for more competitive programs. Furthermore, I passed both times and a lot of programs I'm looking at are looking for 'passed both tests after 4 attempts' or something along those lines, so I'm hopeful.

Worse comes to worse I can always try again next year after I beef up the resume, but at least I passed and don't have to take the test again.

So apparently, using anything heat-generating in my house at the moment trips the "safety" breaker and turns off all power. This means I can't iron my fabric. It also means I can't toss it in the dryer with a damp handcloth to get the creases out, because that also trips the breaker. So basically, I have the choice to sew with wrinkled, creased material or not sew at all. And I'm kind of fucking annoyed.

TFW I made a really good cosplay for kid sister. All I need now is to try it on her and make final adjustments but she won't let me because it is "good enough". She also refuses to wear makeup or do her hair to suit the character because she doesn't really care that much about accuracy even though she is supposedly a HUUUGE fan of said character.

Im tempted to not let her wear the cosplay and to fit it to myself instead if she is going to be a little shit about it.

Make her realize her faults and again, I can't stress this enough, don't let her weasel her way back in. You don't need this, you deserve better, and you've put up with enough shit already.

Recently been dealing with the fact my father sexually assaulted me and my brother when we were kids.

I confronted my father about it and left now I'm looking after me and my little brother which isn't bad because I've lived out of home before its only bad because I want him to live a good life yanno and I can be a bit silly.

I'm worried like I'm to emotionall damaged for it to be sensible for me to get into a relationship? I think girls would probably be turned off hey like at what point do you tell a girl that I guess. I'm worried I'd be a bad boyfriend now because of that emotional baggage, really. I'd hate to think i'd hurt someone because of it. So now I'm really afraid to get into a relationship or even pursue girls really which is fucking shit. I loved a girl and i sorta still do but it was an affair and she chose him not me, got burnt hard as.

Yeah my fear is like to create guilt or something.

Is it possible to chat with people from /cgl/ and make plans that way? I just want to have a good time and talk to people about anime without having to worry about their BO problems.

If you're at a university you probably have a gym, if you haven't already start lifting. Probably wouldn't hurt to shove your cargo shorts in the closet and take a trip to /fa/ too.

Join a club if you haven't already, all clubs party. From there just try your best to be confident in yourself and talk to girls. The key thing is to not be afraid of rejection. You can't sit around all day with your thumb up your ass for the perfect moment cause it won't come. It's okay if you make it somewhat obvious you're interested in a girl as long as you're friendly and engaging enough.

dont listen to that guy


lifting does very little unless you do it for 4+years with hard work and good diet. or unless you take steroids

people say lifting doesnt take much time and there is lots of time in the day but if you are going 5 days a week around 1.5 hours a day it adds up. and the fact you have a limit of giving fucks in one day and you dont want to waste that on lifting if you arent even going to look good.

You clearly don't know much about lifting. You can get pretty substantial results after just a year and the reasons to lift go beyond just aesthetics and health, it builds confidence. When you experience you're body getting stronger you feel better about yourself and you're more likely to put yourself out there.

I really don't see what you have against lifting. Look, here's what I look like but I've only been lifting for about 3 months and I used to weigh 240 pounds, now 185. I never claimed to be ripped even though I hope to be by the end of this year.

You're right in that gains won't be so great after a year or so but that's not going to stop me from lifting. My body gets stronger everyday and so does my perception of myself. it's worth the time and effort I've put into it.

its painfully obvious you are sticking your arm to your side with all your might to accentuate your arms and shoulder + hide love handles (you twisting your torso ever so slightly helped as well).

i know the camera tricks because i used to post progress pics all the time on /fit/ as well


you will be massively disappointed when you find out just how slow it gets over time.

I spent 3 years with somebody who was sexually abused as a child, but refused to acknowledge it any way. The only method they felt comfortable telling me was through Facebook message and any face-to-face discussion about it caused them to cut me off. I was madly in love with them up until the day our relationship ended, but in the end they just couldn't handle that I knew what had happened and pushed me further and further away.
I was never put off by what happened to them, and it never changed my opinion on who they were. Any decent person would feel the same, so I wouldn't worry.

I am so sick of some people thinking they can trashtalk other cosplayers.

I can forgive someone who makes cosplays nitpicking others, because being able to pick out flaws can help you see flaws in your own work. And I can forgive a little complaining about people flaking from someone who at the very least USUALLY gets things done.

But that's not the case.

They flat-out trash everyone else while sitting there in the same 100% borrowed or, at best, bought off someone else costumes and too small wigs they ALWAYS wear. If you can't even figure out a wig is too small, you don't get to laugh at someone else's.

If there is truly no one decent at the club just don't. It's not worth it. You can always make friends at cons or arrange something on CGL.

Forcing yourself is seriously not worth it, especially if you are worrying about the social consequences. If you are having fun I'd say ignore what your friends or fraternity brothers would say, but you don't even seem to have fun so just flee from that anime club before it's too late and you become one of them.

I am so fucking mad at my SO.

He's been abusing pills. I'd be OK with him using pills every now and then (he uses uppers because we have long, shitty work schedules), but apparently he was full blown fucking addicted to this shit and I didn't realize the scale of it because he'd sneak off and do them. He's getting off it them right now and it's so bad that he's going through withdrawals.

Well, we have to be at work soon, so I get ready early and I'm just lounging around, waiting for him. I see we have to leave in ten minutes just to barely make it on time, so I go to the bed room to check on him and HE'S STILL ASLEEP. I wake him up and he tells me he's not going. Ok, great, except that totally fucks me over because A) He usually drops me off before he goes to find parking since I HAVE to be on time and no one notices if he's 20 minutes late and B) I currently don't have enough gas in my car to make it to work, so I will be even later if I drive myself since I'll have to stop to fill up.

If he had just fucking TOLD me that he wasn't going 30 minutes ago, it would have all been fine. But nooooo, that little bit of common courtsey was apparently just too great for him. 30 minutes ago he called out to me and when I asked, "What?" he said, "Nothing" and I guess he went back to sleep. It's not like he was incapable.

I am so sorry for what you are going through. Rehab is only a start, and it can get him clean, but being sober and living a sober life is going to take him time. Please understand, your boyfriend is an addict, and addicts don't get better, they get sober. Addiction is a life long disease, that only he can take care of, so it doesn't matter if you are there or not, it's not going to make him get clean. Take care of you first. It’s important that you understand this and keep your eyes open. A relationship with your boyfriend means a relationship with his addiction as well.

It's just really disappointing since we've been together so long, and it's not like I sprung it on him out of nowhere, I've always worn liz lisa and otome.

Yeah, in the last few months he's been getting distant.
He started going to a new college where there's a ton of Asian girls, which happens to be his fetish.
I've kinda been getting the feeling he wants to get a real life kawaii anime girl.

Sorry you're dating some asshole who can't associate with you because you want to look adorable from time to time. Seriously, what the fuck is his deal? Try talking to him about it, I guess, but if he's going to keep being a butt, dump him and find someone who isn't a jerk.

Like, my boyfriend of almost three years doesn't dig girls with short hair, but I wanted to cut mine recently, so I told him what I was thinking, and while he's not crazy about it, he's not going to break up with me for wanting to look how I want to. And this is my hair that he has to see every day (unless I put on a wig), not just some dress I'll wear occasionally. I do not comprehend your bf, anon.

Your bf sounds like my ex. He was also really stubborn about not tolerating an interest of mine, and he constantly talked about how Asian girls are perfect and how I should fix my appearance to fit his standards. He was quite manipulative and never cared about my feelings in general though, so it wasn't surprising.

I broke up with him over a month ago - no regrets - and he still obsessively texts me trying to guilt trip me enough to date him again. (I blocked his number but I think he texted from a different one this time.) It's amusing because he still doesn't see what he did wrong.

And those texts were only the beginning of the latest pity party too. He proceeded to go on about how he's "fucking dying" and that I should talk to some random friend of his so she can get us back together, jesus christ.

Warning signs like being controlling and disapproving of simple things like clothes or whatever have a big chance of leading up to full-on craziness, I guess. It's better to be alone forever than stuck with a creep.

I get you, anon, and I've never felt the need to ~reveal my gender~. It's just that many boards on 4chan are implicitly anti-female. When women are talked about they are referred so as a different species, certainly not as a group of people who might be participating in that same discussion. I've never said "btw I'm a grill" but I still feel incredibly unwelcome on most boards here. And like >>7840061 said, they always assume you're a guy too and you're not allowed to correct them without being insulted. One time I mentioned my boyfriend in a thread-relevant context and I was called a fucking faggot who needed to get AIDS. I felt that this was still much more welcoming than the response I'd get if I told them that I'm actually a straight woman.

>>7840055
/cgl/ is still not nearly as hostile to men as the rest of 4chan is to women. Seagulls get annoyed when guys use their gender to validate their opinion ("Speaking as a guy, I think your costume makes you look dumb. You need to care about this because I'm a man and your entire meaning in life is to appeal to men, yes?") but literally nobody gives a fuck when it's actually relevant. We get uncomfortable dudes in the makeup threads all the time and they're always treated with just as much respect as any other poster.

Anon misread your post and now they're embarrassed which is, of course, your fault. Don't worry about it dude.

Anyway about your Thing: if they're really that horrible, don't force it. But if going to that con is important enough that you can put up with the club for just a little bit longer then you can always just treat it as a source of hilarious weeb stories to tell your bros when you get back.

Hahaha, I followed up with something along those lines. I just went off on him and said I'm entirely done with this by now and don't care if he's flunking or dying and to fuck off and never contact me again. Hopefully that got through to him.

This is what I meant thought?
It just feels that >>7840033 has been used to stating her gender or having her gender be relevant to the discussion. I can understand /ck/'s quip about "She's not gonna eat it anyway lol" since it's a quip based on the question which, lacking detail, might have been "/ck/ wut feed so lol".
