Package from Baby got hit by customs, tracking info shows that delivery was apparently attempted and failed both today and yesterday because of unpaid fees, but I've been to reception where I'm living and they don't even have a customs slip for me, which they usually get in situations like this, so I have no idea where my package is. Might go down to the post office tomorrow and see what's up if I wake up in time. Thanks, Italy, you're a pal.

Oh, I don't have much experience with it to be honest, I'm just studying here for the year, but yeah, my first impressions aren't great. I'm from Ireland, where the postal service isn't super, but there are rarely any major fuckups (or at least I've never been on the receiving end of one) and it's super rare to get hit by customs because our workers are lazy. Man, everyone says Italy's so lazy and chill but they work so much harder than us and they're like a thousand times stricter about most things. It's nice here on the whole, though. I just want to know where the hell my dress is.

Haha, you must be in the wrong part of Italy. Not sure where you are, but I can say Sicily is definitely more like the cliche you just described. Also, almost every single package that did not have tracking never arrived at my family in Sicily. Even with tracking it's a risk when you don't make sure it's packed properly and doesn't look like it contains anything of value.
Depending on what you want to send/where to, it is also adviseable to slip a little tip inside the envelope to make sure the mail actually reaches it's destination. Not really sure about the international mailing system, but well, everyone is lazy and chill- and greedy. It's worse around small villages though, at least from my experience. It might not be that bad in the bigger cities where more tourists and (international) buisness are.

Yeah, I'm in Trentino-Alto Adige which I think is separately governed so they're more strict and Austrian-influenced. I don't mind, I guess, but there's a lot of really unnecessary procedures! They're big fans of pointless bureaucracy, it's not very efficient. And Ireland is hardly the picture of efficiency so it takes a lot for me to say that.
And I wouldn't say that Ireland is an unselfish country, but we're sometimes lazy to the point that it could cost us money and we wouldn't care. Which I guess is why it's uncommon to get hit with customs fees. And why our economy isn't doing super great. I might try the tip thing if I ever want to send something somewhere, I'll see how it works!

I've met a lot of people through lolita, so they make up the majority of my friendslist. Even when they leave lolita, we stay in touch. Now, a lot of these friends are housewives or on disability. I have no issue with either of these points. What I do have issue with is that they all seem to be hopping onto the same trend of exploit-your-friends-to-start-a-business-that-never-pans-out at the same damned time.

I'd never tear someone down over their weight, but I still feel like a huge hypocrite inside. It might be that I've struggled with body image and disordered eating for as long as I remember, but I just think obesity is gross in general, and as much as I try to respect others no matter their appearance and in no way think fat people should be treated poorly, I still feel a little physically repulsed when I'm around them. But I still encourage my larger friends to do what they want, so I'm not all bad, right?

I'm rolling my eyes so hard at this. It seems to me people like this just enjoy the thrill of being desired, and don't leak that they're in relationships already until the last concealable moment possible for the fact.

It's always been my personal courtesy to make it known that I'm in some sort of relationship early on if I can tell that someone from the opposite gender seems interested in me. That way they're not wasting their time or emotional capacity hoping that it would amount to something. Idk, just seems narcissistic to me.

>> No.7857158

>>7857128
Part of me wants to agree with you and put the blame on the guy for not being up front about being in a relationship.

Another part of me is saying that I've probably done this before with others in my life and it's a little hypocritical to think this way seeing as it might just be an honest mistake of him being oblivious.

What really gets me is that either is a possibility.

I never know how to handle this because I genuinely can't tell when someone might be interested.

I've mentioned him right off the bat with someone I thought was pretty cool and a possible new friend because it was relevant, and the guys I've done that with have immediately shown less interest in interacting at all if they're not getting their dicks wet.

I feel the same way about fat people in non-cosplay clothing. Dress in clothes you like, that are comfortable, that make you feel beautiful, whatever. Do what makes you happy.
But that doesn't mean I want to look at it or that I will agree that it's beautiful. As long as you're not seeking my validation that shouldn't be a problem, right?
An acquaintance of mine has taken up cyber goth and always has cleavage spilling out of her PVC corset... at both ends. To me this looks horrific, but it makes her feel sexy and confident and apparently a bunch of dudes think it's sexy too so whatever, do ya thang. But I'm still going to avoid seeing her whenever I worry that she'll be wearing the corset again.

I kind of hope people feel the same way about my weird fashion choices (otome). It's fine if people don't like it and would rather see me wear something else but I'm not going to. As long as people aren't rude to me about it I'm happy. I'm not wearing it for them. I believe the problem arises when people start looking for validation and acceptance from people who aren't ready to give it. You can't force someone to like things.

4chan losers, maybe. Most of the men (I use this term loosely) I know are well aware when a girl is interested. The ones that already have a girlfriend like the attention anyway and some of the douchier ones make a game out of leading her on, especially if she's unattractive. The latter type seems to think I'd find these stories entertaining because they always come to me to brag. Of course not all men do this and most are very decent about it, but they DO know.
Meanwhile I'm a woman and I'm fucking clueless. I didn't realize my now-boyfriend was interested in more than friendship until he tried to kiss me. Many girls, especially those who run in geek circles, are not very socially aware.

I don't know whether the dude in OP's post was oblivious or having his ego massaged at her expense, but both are definitely possible.

They're great housemates and nice people, just my exposure to people this normal is limited and I'm suddenly becoming super aware of how awkward my hobbies are. Doesn't help that all three of us work shifts so I literally have no idea when they'll be in and out of the house. Found out last night that one of them has the same day off as me this week so so much for getting some cosplay stuff done on my day off.

My boyfriend keeps hinting that he doesn't like the way I dress but doesn't just come out and say it even when I ask him to.
>Oh, you're wearing THAT? Okay...
>Would you prefer I wear something else? I can do that, no big deal.
>No... It's fine... [heavy sigh]
Goddamn.

I've tried talking to him about it so we can reach a compromise because I want him to be happy with the way I dress. I'm not going to change completely but I don't want him to feel uncomfortable being seen with me. But every time I bring it up he's evasive as fuck and it's really starting to get on my nerves.
>What style of girl's clothes is your favourite, boyfriend?
>lol I don't care about fashion anon that's a girl thing
>But isn't there anything you'd like to see me wear? Like a certain skirt lengths, certain fabrics, colours, whatever
>I'd love it if you just wore lingerie around the house huehuehue
So fucking unhelpful. If he's not going to throw me a bone so I can compromise I'm just going to keep on doing what I'm doing and he's going to keep on being unhappy with it. I don't even dress that strangely - I generally wear otome (mostly ETC) and an average daily outfit consists of girly printed dress + blouse or cardigan + plain tights + simple low heels. Does he not like the printed dresses? Would he prefer I wear jeans, or something sexier? I don't fucking know because I'm not a fucking mind reader.

He's not usually this much of a baby but for some reason he gets really immature when the topic turns to fashion. Maybe it's a good sign that this is the only point of friction in our relationship but I still don't want it to turn into a Thing.

He just sounds like a typical man, to be honest. "Lel I don't like this dress but talking about fashion is hurting muh masculinity!!1"
Seriously, most guys I know couldn't even explain the difference between a skirt and a dress, let alone wanted to participate in anything fashion related because uuuuuh, that's for girls!! I know several couples where the girlfriends buy their bf clothes because they are too manly to enter a shop and try on a shirt.

I think it is great that you wnt him to be comfortable around you, but if he doesn't want to talk about it, it's his problem. Try to sit him down and talk to him in the simplest manner: You dress like you want, you take requests if he ever wants you to wear something, and if he is not going to tell you his problem he should stfu. Let him go through your closet so he can pick out the pieces he likes, which might be easier for him than to describe what he likes.
Good luck, Anon!

Why don't you just tell them you are doing costumes? No need to mention mangos or conventions, just pass it off as costumes for halloween/comics/whatever. You could also tell them you are taking sewing requests for friends. It's not THAT weird, at least in my opinion. As long as you keep your power levels low and don't go full weeb mode on it, they probably won't care that much.
Better tell them something at least, the more you hide it the more awkward and suspicious it will get.

Honestly anon, I'd just be straight up with him. Sit him down and be like look dude I don't appreciate the passive-aggressive bullshit. You obviously don't want to fight with him about it, but the passiveness isn't really helping. Ask him to pick out anything he thinks looks nice, ones her particularly likes, or if he doesn't like any of it at all.

Part of a relationship is communication. If he doesn't like something you wear, he needs to tell you what and why. It's not fair to deal with passive bs just because "durrr fashion 4 gurlz" bleh.

It's all about money to her. And what drives me especially insane is that if anyone was bad with men and "went through them like lipsticks", it was her. She's been married three times and didn't get it right until she was in her late 30s. At least I can say that I wouldn't get married to any assholes who beat the shit out of me just because they offer some financial security. I understand that on some level she's trying to protect me (which I don't really need), but on the other hand she need to learn that I'm reaching mid twenties, and going to be making my own decisions.

Anons.
I've been driven to suicidal thoughts by my ADD and not being able to finish my jobs [sewing and things of that nature]
My parents will NOT help me pay for a psychiatrist or seek further help because they don't believe in medication.

Did literally everything to try to get help, and all doors were shut in my face.
Don't take my insurance, "not my specialty", 8+ month long waiting lists, and even doctors telling me they don't even really believe in ADD.

Went to a counselor, told them my problem and the roadblocks that keep coming up, and the counselor was floored.
All she could say was "I-I'm sorry, I don't know what to do. I can't get you meds or anything, but after hearing you, I wish I could.."

I'm finally going the non-legal and more expensive route and buying the drugs I so desperately need.
I tried to go legal, and I can't wait anymore for help.

Just curious.. can any of you Gulls have experience with Vyvanse?
I took Adderall w/o a script some time ago, but the come-down effects turned me into a rage monster, and I couldn't have that. Totally altered my personality, as I never get anger, like, ever. Didn't like that.

I've heard good things about Vyvanse, but it's harder to get because it's not a "popular" drugs like Adderall or Ritilin.
I think I'mma start out with 10 or maybe 20mg.

Fingers crossed.
I want to be productive so I can be happy.

1) you're an idiot for buying illegal drugs
2) "experiences" aren't worth much as one person can have an adverse reaction to something but someone else won't
3) it could be that you don't have ADD at all but something else like anxiety, which can render people incapable to concentrate and cause suicidal thoughts. Instead of coming to a doctor's office and proclaiming "I HAVE ADD NOW CURE ME" you should try phrasing it another way and explaining the symptoms first then saying that you're afraid it could be ADD/you were told it's ADD.
I was once diagnosed with epilepsy even though I have a very textbook example of anxiety so it's very much trial and error.

Call a hotline or wait until you go to a doctor to get medicated, don't be an idiot.

So I've done counselling, and I know my issues, and drugs are not my end-all cure-all. I just need to be able to focus so I can function in society. I literally am NOT able to do that and I have had jobs where ADD had caused major problems for me.
Obv everyone's experience is going to be different. I'm asking what others who have taken it have experienced so I know what to expect, at the very least.
I do have anxiety as well as ADD. It's commonly coupled. I'm not looking for meds as a "cure". I need to get on my feet in order to survive. I have bills to pay, and my mind in getting in the way of me being able to do so many things.

My survival can no longer count of "waiting it out" or just "trying harder". I need something to manage this.

Fun fact:
Psychologists generally diagnose.
Psychiatrists generally can diagnose and prescribe.
I was referred to another doctor [don't know who, thought, as it's been some time] for medication, but since my parents dictated it, as it was under their rule and insurance plan, they were and still are anti-med, so I never saw the psychiatrist as suggested by the psychologist.

>Having that much of a comedown from adderall

Bullshit. Unless you're taking well over a safe dose than you don't have ADHD. Adderall only really works like it should when your brain is malfunctioning (ADHD) even if I take a higher dose than recommended by my doc, I just don't sleep for two days. No comedown, no side effects other than raging insomnia, which is already an issue without adderall.

Severe depression causes lack of focus which may be your problem. I've been diagnosed by an ADHD specialist when I was getting depression treatment and couldn't even sit through a movie. When the depression got treated properly and I started to come out of that hole, it got better. My concentration and productivity are still shit, but I can give at least an hour of attention to something if I really try hard. Crippling ADHD is really rare, and usually there's a secondary problem making it worse.

Please don't get offended, I'm calling bullshit about the side effects if you're on a safe dose and that there isn't a secondary problem if you have attention issues. They do have mental health clinics for people who can't pay a psychiatrist that offer reduced rates and payment plans. Otherwise, go to a school counselor if you're in college or HS and tell them exactly how you're feeling, they'll pretty much force you to go to a mental health clinic because your suicidal ideation makes you a danger to yourself.

Anon, the point is that getting drugs from your friends or god knows who else to treat something that it sounds like you may or may not have self diagnosed is NOT a good idea.
I did a stupid research project on the adverse effects of ADHD medication for people who don't have ADHD, and guess what? The side effects can range from no appetite/bad headache to severe anxiety/stomach pain/flu-like symptoms.

You might have anxiety. I have GAD and often can't focus or feel hopeless/suicidal. Taking something like Adderall or Vyvanse would likely only *increase* feelings of anxiety because it's a stimulant.

Do some research. Consult MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS and don't get upset when people on 4chan tell you you're being rash and stupid because it sounds like you're being rash and stupid.

Baking cookies just screams that you're a twee (probably fat) little girl who's pretending to be a woman. Girls like that, you want to take them by the shoulders and give them a good shake.

Original anon who needed birthday ideas and um....you need to calm down a bit.

For one we're fucking on a regular basis and he sleeps over all the time. Second of all, he enjoys my cooking and I think anons were right to say that I should bake him desserts with a special interest in mind, which would be spiciness.

Lastly, he's a good guy within my circle of friends (I went hiking with him and his friends yesterday and we held hands and kissed in front of them), and has already expressed a level of commitment to building our relationship. He says how he loves my confidence, intelligence, and my body.
He's not some insecure Chad Thundersnot who's going to pump another girl next week to fix his ego. Genuine gestures of good will are NOT signs that someone is "ugly." And the fact that your argument rested on so many assumptions should say something to you.
So good luck mulling over your theories; I'll be out with my guy at dinner tonight.

The milk fat in the cream is what cuts the capsaicin not the sweet. "Curry powder" isn't even a thing you dumb american, and the thing you guys call curry powder isn't very spicy in the least. Next time you want to make something spicy you emulsify it in the cream, it also works better to use something like chili oil that won't be as easily cut by the milk oil.

I hate depression. I know I enjoy sewing and crafting, and when I can finally make myself do it, I feel better, but I'm so apathetic lately. I haven't touched my machine in at least a month. And even though I like working out and I like eating well, I haven't been able to make myself do those things in a couple months now, which I know is only making things worse and making me feel worse about myself.

>tfw the only psychiatrist in my area I might be able to afford has a 3+ month waiting list for new patients

I'm going to try to start running again this week, eat a lot of salads, and make something cute and easy to try to tempt myself into working on my half-finished costumes that are gathering dust. Wish me luck.

I'm just fucking weird. I love all things animu and video games and I love to workout, so I can pull off costumes pretty well. But lately they've been really clingy and I don't even know what to do. I really like them all as friends, and I'm very sociable. But as soon as it gets into intimatcy territory, I just start getting real nervous. I always like to buy them gifts every so often since I have more money than Jesus, so I was just thinking about getting another gift that's more along the lines of "let's be friends". Thoughts?

Is it because those girls are not your type anon? asexual? repressed gay? Though for real the most "let's be friends" gift you can give is not giving a gift at all, or at least much less than I assume you're doing now.

I'm sorry to hear that anon. I once threatened to kill myself and my boyfriend called the police on me, where they volunteered to have me taken into the mental health ward. I had been seeing a (shitty) psychologist but this was the tipping point where they decided to prescribe. I'm sorry your community has failed you like this, since mine has really overreacted. Maybe you can try an anonymous suicide hotline? There are clinics that will do affordable care too.

My dressmakers dummy and sewing machine were out when they came round. It's not the sewing so much as the wearing that's going to be awkward to explain. I'm never going to pass completely as a normal person (and don't much care to) I just don't want to make living together too awkward.

As for the trans stuff, I don't want to come out. I think most trans folk would prefer that, aside from transtrenders who are more interested in being trans than actually transitioning to their gender. Aside from having no downtime from a binder aside from in the shower I'm not doing anything I wouldn't normally.

I'm just venting anyway, none of this is the end of the world, just a minor annoyance. Thanks anyway!

All of my stress, anxiety, and depression problems are a direct result of me being in school. If my only priorities in life were to wake up, go to work, do chores, exercise, and hang out with friends on my weekends my life would be fine. As of now it's a juggling act and a matter of keeping my head above water each day.

Anon, I'm sorry to say, but you should see if your uni has a psychologist. It's useful to be in touch with your uni's mental health sector, that way you have school based documentation that you are going through shit.

I wish I never listened to my parents and went back for my master's work, but I'm too deep in the rabbit hole to get out now.

I've participated in the /a/ ones, there's different present tiers, so people giving out big things will get big things in return, etc.
Everyone would just have to give some info: what style/s they like, themes they like, some dresses they own, and size/height.

it works out on /a/ even if some people get gimped it's not that big of a deal, it's the kind of thing you go into knowing you might not get something back so.

Man. I might have hit a plateau. I haven't been working out all that much, but I'm usually on my feet - whether it's biking back and forth to classes or running around at work. I wish I could devote time to proper work out sessions, but my job is physically (and mentally) demanding), so I'm usually too tired.

Ugh. I just want to finally graduate and so I can dedicate to being healthy and in better shape, and I can fit into brand better. I'd hate to think that plateauing is also coming from age because I'm still fairly young (23), but I guess it's faster for females than males.
