/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>Plan on saving a lot more
>Get told I'm being laid off
It never seemed like something I'd have to worry about in my mid 20s. At least I'll be able to work on cosplays non-stop and enjoy my convention in a month. Then I can worry about the rest of my life.

I have double good feels!
> Dithered to long during pre order to get the JSK2 and skirt
> Read that their won't be a re-release and my best bet to get them will be second hand
> But pic related to make myself feel better
> Actually have someone compliment it while I'm out shopping, recognizing the art
> Super happy because I live in the middle of no where
> See feels thread and decide to post about happy feel about finding someone else who at least recognizes the art in bumfuck land
> Go to get pic related
> THEY HAVE THE STORY YOU DON'T KNOW SERIES BACK UP FOR SALE!
> Didn't have the JSK2 in black in my size, but I did by the skirt
> Happy day, now I have to hurry to work before I'm late. Hope you gulls all find what you're hunting for!

>tfw no /cgl/ gf

Uugggghhhhhh. I turn 28 in three hours.

Am I too old to cospray?

>>9440820
wanna be my gf?

>I've come to the realization that I am hemmoraging money on too many hobbies.
>choosing between them is proving difficult.
>On one hand, I could stop cons all together and save that money. But it's the only time I can see some of my friends because of my work schedules.
>On the other, I could quit one of my jobs, be a poor fag, stop purchasing Lolita and have all the time to see my friends on weekends/time for myself or BA.
>that feel when it's money or happiness.

>>9440678
Take that time for sure, but get out there soon. I don't know what you do for work, but I know people who have spent years looking for opportunities in their field. Wishing you the best, anon.

>>9440820
Never! Also, happy birthday in advance anon.

>>9440751
Happy for you, anon! I hope I can get my hands on a Just One Bite someday. Until then, I managed to preorder this one.

As for my feel, I'm happy that I've been making so many craft things lately, but still seem to procrastinate on updating my shop.

THAT FEEL WHEN NO /cgl/ GF

>tfw no /cgl/ gf
Such a relief.

>>9440821
I'm male.

>>9440851
Thx m8.

>Thinking about crush
>Starts imagining the two of us dating
>Imagines getting him to wear boystyle when I go out with him in lolita
>He looks so beautiful in it
>Starts doing more research on boystyle so I could help him with coords
>Realizes he'd probably never be interested in dressing up, especially since he's really insecure about his appearance
>I still don't know if he even likes me back
>I just wasted hours daydreaming and researching instead of exercising

No seriously has anyone here ever worked on a cosplay and just dropped it half way through?

>>9440846
>tfw I worry I'll be one of those people who takes years to find a job in their field

>"We don't feel comfortable hiring someone so overqualified who might leave us in a few months because they found something better UwU"
>parents and fiancé are happy to support me and my hobbies in the meantime but I feel like a shitty person spending money on lolita when I'm not contributing financially...

>>9440894
Yeah. How much time/money have you invested in it?

>>9440904
Try explaining and emphasize that during the interviews anon. I cant possibly imagine them believing youre so flaky youll just up an leave at every single interview. I recently got a job in my field (not stem) after four months of failed interviews. You can do it!

>gonna buy shitloads of burnado now haha

>>9440894
/all my life/
I haven't completed a cosplay in five years. I think this hobby was never really for me.

>>9440846
>that feel when it's money or happiness.
Being laid off this job feels like the universe is telling me to choose happiness over money.

>>9440904
Keep applying for STEM jobs. Once you go down another path, really hard to get back into STEM.

>>9440820
Happy birthday anon! Off course you're not, don't be silly. Take good care of yourself and age gracefully! You'll always find something to cosplay even when wrinkles start to get obvious

>>9440820
Love live? Yes
Overwatch? No

>tfw your meets have been overrun with DDLGs

>>9440820
So long as you go for appropriate characters - depending on how you look.

Give up on high schoolers, aim for college student or adult characters - i don't know, teachers maybe?

I'm not really caught up on recent stuff, so i don't know if theres many 20-30ish adult characters worth cosplaying

>>9441084
I'm seriously thinking about choosing happiness. My jobs are dead end anyway.

>Finally make a friend involved in alt/street fashion
>Friends birthday is coming up soon
>Dosent wear lolita, but likes ott pastel stuff like decora and fairy kei
>Im trying to slowly convert her, found some AP she likes although she has pretty clusterfuck-y outfit plans, I'm just happy to have someone who understands

>Find some second hand for cheap
>Feeling like such a great friend

And then...
>I remember it isn't socially acceptable out of lolita to buy your friends 7-year-old 3rd hand socks as a birthday present
>tfw

I might go for some AP Disney collab accessories instead. I would love to get her holy lantern but that's obviously not gonna happen, I posted in the buy/sell thread about the barrette tho, I think it would be the perfect gift for her if I can find it.

>little sister is missing the con because she's getting an IUD installed

Well fuck, she's all grown up now.

>>9441104
Fwiw, early-20's girls still ask me if I'm old enough to join them at the bar.

I think I can get away with crossplaying Sailor Moon for a few more years.

>>9440894
Multiple times. Fuck the Sunk Cost Fallacy. Once something stats being a chore i fucking drop it

That annoyed feel when wanker cum-dripping fuckponges think that you owe them a reply when they try to chat you up via message. Like, nah dude, I don't owe you shit, 'specially not my time which is my most valuable commodity.

You guys know the ones I'm talking about...the creeps who don't give a shit about cosplay, lurk coscom/fb pages, and whose first thought is "u want sum fuk?"

Just had to rant. That is all :'D

>parents in town visiting
>parents asking me about an upcoming con

I'm scared anon

>>9440879
>I'm male

That doesn't answer my question.
Do.
You.
Wanna.
Be.
My.
GF?

I just found out people at my university have been taking creep shots of my outfits and posting them to a popular Instagram to laugh about with lame little bo peep jokes

>>9440914
Im in the middle of a yurio cosplay the only thing ive gottent is the jacket and the rest is pretty much closet cosplay i have invested more money into a different cosplay.

The things i havent gotten yet are the following

>Lenses

>Wig


The wig if i do continue is gonna half to be an ebay wig and the makeup i want to get should be applicable for both cosplays. like a good foundation that could work for both. i honestly dont know anymore

I FINALLY FOUND SOMEONE TO COUPLES COSPLAY WITH AND I'M SO ANXIOUS. FUCK. MAYBE I SHOULD ASK HIM IF WE CAN MAKE THINGS OFFICIAL? WE'VE ONLY HELD HANDS AND KISSED CHEEKS.

>YOU MUST BE 18 TO USE THIS SITE

I WAS HOMESCHOOLED MY WHOLE LIFE AND AM JUST NOW ENTERING COLLEGE AT 21 BECAUSE OF OVERPROTECTIVE PARENTS WHO DIDN'T TRUST ME TO NOT UNDERAGE DRINK.

I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE. HE'S GOING TO HATE MY GUTS, I'M A FOOL FOR HOPING THINGS ARE GOING TO WORK OUT. HE HAS SO MANY GIRLS CALLING HIM CUTE ON INSTA, I'M NOTHING.

>>9440887
It's okay anon.
I once spent a day researching HESCO Barriers for building a giant anti zombie perimeter that we could continue to add to until we force them into the waters.
Realized I was planning for an unlikely to accomplish scenario, in an unlikely to occur scenario.
Like planning for building a death rally in the crater of a meteor that destroyed half the earth.

>>9441319
Not him, but I'll be your gf(male) anon :3c

>>9440894
Tried making the maid outfit from Tokyo Mew Mew when I was 12. I had no pattern, had the flimsiest knowledge about basic construction, compounded with fairly few cosplay resources 10+ years ago and it was a recipe for disaster. I spent a bunch of saved up money on atrocious pink and red fabric, realized about $70 in that I was way in over my head and didn't have a clue what I was doing, I'd barely had the dress and apron done before i chucked it in the trash. I wish I'd saved a picture of how awful it looked so we could all bask in the cringe together

>>9441325
>Taking creep shots
If it's actual "CREEP" shots, you can go to the university about it.
Of course it's always better to just tell them to kindly stop being assholes and do something productive with their time, do this IRL or they'll just mock you over social media about you being a baby bo peep.
University is highschool still.

>>9441461
Not her but
>Be in uni

I kekked.

>>9441325
That really fucking sucks.

>>9441488
This, on the other hand, is hilarious. I'd never have the balls to do something like that though.

>showing BF a couple of dresses I'd love to buy before upcoming event that brand is attending

>>9441304
Hi Anon.

I recently had the same news dropped on me.

My dad is currently undergoing chemo and it really scares me. We found the cancer really early, and are moving as fast as possible, but I'm still worried. It doesn't feel fair.

I basically started visiting home as often as possible because it's possible that by the end of the year he won't even be alive anymore.

It sucks, it really sucks.

I'm wishing the best for you. Stay strong, when someone is fighting cancer they need an emotional rock to stand on. You need to be there for your family.

>>9440641
>comm is full of people at a completely different place in life than me
>everyone already appears to know each other
>finally meet a lolita at a con that I can talk to easily
>seems just as vulnerable and in need of a friend as me
>wait a few months
>try to chat with her on Facebook
>no response
>no activity on her Facebook since before we met
She's not dead, right? I know I waited a long time, but... I feel like I've gotten used to finding out people I knew killed themselves through Facebook. I'm overreacting, right?

>>9441686
Check how far the facebook goes back and how often they post.

I've personally tried facebook three times, each time I just dropped it.
>Because I have no friends

How do I get a gf?

>>9441433
You sound pretty adorable anon. 10/10 would date.

I'm sure your crush thinks the same. Now you just need a solid idea for couples cosplay.

>>9441743
1: Be male
2: Exist

> Am girl from former thread who was apprehensive about dating lovely boy because background of abuse

> Yesterday was helping me sort and put away my CC order

I feel so accepted. Thank you to the anon who encouraged me to suck it up and give it a shot.

>>9441133
My ex esaid she got an IUD installed last month.

Oh, good. Now your new guy can slide his wiener in you whenever he wants. Or somthing. Meanehil, the last girtl I dated left me for a homeless man.

Half an hour into my birthday and I'm already fdrunk.

>>9441822
Happy birthday.

>>9441822
What do I do for my birthday all of my friends are being btches. I wanna go to the build a bera workshop but I can't' my csr is our of gas and I'm undemploy.

Sorry I'm flailing asleep now. I'm so tired of this shit, another year of being a lonely piece of weabeboograbade

>>9441834
Thanks it's nice to know someone caress

>Haven't seen friend for a while
>Today uploads new pic in insta
>Transformed into stereotypical SJW feminazi

Oh god, I can still cancel our pair cosplay for the summer, should I do it? We haven't bought anything yet so it would be easy

>>9441863
Unless you like hanging out with someone bitter all weekend? Sometimes it can be entertaining

>>9441863
Try it, you may still enjoy their company.
You don't expect your friends to agree with you in everything, do you?

That way you have the moral high ground if they are cunt the whole time and get mad when you get annoyed.
>You know, I actually didn't even want to come out because I thought you might act like this, and I was unfortunately right, you've changed, and I don't like it, I'm sorry but I can't handle being out with you if you're going to continue acting like this with me.

And they can either chill the fuck out, or let their differences ruin the friendship.

>>9440904
Ah, the myth of STEM degrees meaning guaranteed employment. That would be the case if everyone and their grandma weren't getting STEM degrees and competition for good jobs wasn't fierce as fuck. What kind of job are you looking for?

A professor told us employers saying you're 'overqualified' is really a way of saying 'underqualified' in the sense that you don't have the schooling/training/etc they want. You do kind of screw yourself over if you get a degree for a job that doesn't require it because they could hire someone with less education (so they can justify a lower pay) to do it. I really wish they would teach kids to think about what kind of work they'd like to be doing after school. Because then you get kids who realize they only needed an associate's for what they really wanted to do, but they assumed they'd be a more attractive candidate with dime-a-dozen bio degrees and now they're 'overqualified'. Or that (as was the case for my friend, who had all the resources to know better) you can't do research with just a bachelor's in any field. Urgh. Makes me mad how little career counseling they do in high schools.

It can take time to find a job in your field, and it may be one you absolutely hate, but just be patient and apply to everything.

>>9441488
Fantastic. I wish I had your guts.

>my best friend introduces me to an acquaintance who wears steampunk clothing because "you both love alt fashion!"

I think I'm done trying to be friends with straight guys. And I'm done seeking advice or sympathy from this friend.

>>9441932
Your professor is talking out his ass. Overqualified 100% means "I'm not wasting time training you when I can already tell you're going to be looking for other work immediately."

The real pro tip is to just leave Uni out when applying for these jobs. You shouldn't be making shit up but there's no rule against leaving non illegal shit out.

>>9441953
I still think what he was saying holds some truth, even if the way he said it was silly- get the education/training you need for the job you want. Don't assume employers will hire someone with more education just because a bachelor's has more prestige than an associate's. Some places have to pay you more from the get-go if you have a higher degree, so they avoid hiring overqualified people even if they think they'd stick around (they know high-paying STEM jobs are extremely competitive and the likeliness of you finding a better job will depend on you having a degree AND experience, so it's a safe bet you would stick around, but again, they don't want to pay you more for what someone with less education could do). Mind you, I'm not saying bachelor's degrees are bad investments, but the endgame is finding work.

You get a degree to get a job. If you aren't getting the jobs in your field that you thought you could with your degree BECAUSE of your degree, you need to rethink your career plan. These companies are hiring someone else with the qualifications they preferred, even if they are 'less qualified' than you, and that's the fact of the matter. (As for work outside your field, well, yeah, they KNOW for a fact you're out of there as soon as you find a job in your field. It sucks.)

The problem with leaving out uni is that it looks like you have a huge gap of time where you didn't do anything.

Shit with uni happened- so busy with life and making it work that I went out onto a residency missed the first day completely and have now seen the update in the student centre informing me that I could of done it one town over rather than fly 2 fucking states over and waste close to a grand in money. I'm really struggling to figure out how I missed this new info and why my residency dates weren't in showing up on my uni calander. I'm so disappointed in myself and as money is really tight this is just a mistake I didn't think I was going to make. I hate myself, this stupid degree and that I can't get my life together.

>>9441947
To be honest anon when i saw
>steampunk
The alarm bells went off, i guess its a personal thing but i find them to be the most insufferable cunts.

>>9441947
Your "friend" sounds like a bitch.
Like seriously.

Anyway, straight guy here, let me try and salvage "my side" real quick.
I can be "just friends" with females, problem is, people that are eccentric and people who choose alternate hobbies (like you, me, that guy you're talking about) are normally eccentric or have quirks that makes us a little off in the social department, and are just as bad at reading into things as you are in this situation. This might be unsalvageable but next time (if you allow a next time) make it very clear that you're not going to date them, like be blunt as fuck, it won't hurt their feelings if they don't have time to "develop" those feelings in the first place.
Something along the lines of "Yeah cool, I'd like to hang out, but let me be blunt and say I'm not looking for a romantic relationship"
Sure, to some that may sound pretentious. But hey. You have to get it through some thick skulls some times.

>>9442001
Sorry, correcting myself.
You defiantly knew what was happening.
Your friend made you think you were overreacting

Again, she REALLY sounds like a bitch to me.
A guy texting you alot for no reason?
"Oh he doesn't like you."

I just want some cosplay friends. I want to have some people to get excited for cons and cosplaying our fav characters, maybe even make a group. The only person I know that is into cosplay isnt really that much into it and cons with him are pretty boring since he doesnt want to do stuff.. Really have to get over my shyness and just talk to people at cons.
On a more positive note, my brother and his girlfriend just recently said they wanna come along to the next con since their both into gaming and getting into Anime.

>here for lolita
>develop an interest in cosplay too and, after years of lurking, finally decide to cosplay character I really love
>never been to an anime con or cosplay meetup or anything like that
>where will I wear my cosplay once it's done? braving a con all alone is too much for my socially awkward self
>ask bf's sister, who is really into cosplay, if I can come with her to an anime con some time
>"uh lol anon anime cons are for babies you'd hate it there"
>she only wears her anime costumes to the local Ren Faire because that's apparently the mature thing to do
>google name of local Ren Faire + cosplay
>find forum full of people complaining about the weeaboos in their anime cosplays ruining the atmosphere and messing up photos with their fluorescently colored wigs in the background
>"if they're historically inspired at least they blend in a bit"
>tfw my character would not blend in at all

Maybe I should ask people from my lolita comm if I can hang out with them at the next anime con. Some of them cosplay, too. Would that be weird, since I wouldn't be attending the con in lolita?

>>9442030
Just go solo. Everyone will be too beta to try anything and that way you can roam around at your own pace

>>9442005
>defiantly
reee

>>9442034
What do you mean try anything? I just want someone to walk around with, because if I'm alone in a new place I feel too awkward/anxious and will probably end up leaving after an hour.

>tfw dream dress is being delivered today
>customs taxes need to be paid in cash at the door
>tax is €80
>don't have €80 in cash on me right now
>need to hide from delivery guy so he'll bring the package to the local post office where I can pay by card
>I'm sorry my baby we'll be together soon

>>9442044
Would you consider attending a cosplay meetup for your series?

>order again from pinkie paradise
>literally 8 real life human days to get it in the UK despite the 14-21 business days timeline
>I only ordered super violet pinkies

I got my super violets... and I got a SINGLE black colored messiah lense and a SINGLE red colored vassen lense.

what the fuck? my order number and credit card details show the proper payment (only pinkie violets).

it's kinda useless, but I suppose I'm grateful I get an extra contact lense case.

>>9442086
They often send out samples

>hanging alone in popular theme park since I work there, carrying parasol
>"hey parasol girl, you alone too?"
>fancily dressed dude in clothes that look like he should be sipping coffee in a dusty book store at New Orleans
>hang out with him cause he seems cool and I need friends, also a lil lenient due to alcohol
>ride some rides, hang
>in the span of four hours we discuss some pretty cool stuff, fashion, he knows what Lolita is, etc.
>somehow he knew my name before I introduced myself but then asked me later what my name was
>find out he's actually 38 (he looked 24) and a previous college teacher who studied fashion in London, shows me his designs which really give me aristocrat vibes
>before I go back home he kisses my cheek in a friendly ish manner I think
>essentially told me to explore my hopes and dreams and not undermine myself

Well that was a sort of surreal experience. There's more to it but I won't bore with details. I'm just not even sure what to feel about it.

I've been so tired lately. Even when I sleep, I still feel tired. Not my eyes burning type of tired, but just feeling exhausted deep inside.
When I wake up, within 2 hours I want to sleep again and drag myself through the day until I get home and force myself to stay up until 9pm when I fall into bed and knock out instantly.

This is sucking time out of cosplay plans and coord plans but I can't help it. No amount of hours slept the previous night, coffee, tea, water, vitamins, protein, or sugar can keep me alert and keep my eyes from feeling like they're gonna fall shut at any moment.

Why must my body betray me

>>9442131
>somehow he knew my name before I introduced myself but then asked me later what my name was
>find out he's actually 38

I got some bad news for ya.

>>9442131
I want to know more, anon!

>>9442132
I have this same issue Anon and I have tried a lot of things to see if it helps but really not sure what causes it. When ever I ask anyone what they think it is I always get the same "must be depression" rubbish.

>>9442170
Depression isn't just sadness, anon. You can have a happy life and still maybe have something like that onset by a hormonal imbalance or some such.

>popular cosplayer in my country gets caught blatantly copying stuff from another artist and selling it on her cosplay Patreon
>called out in country thread
>country thread is now being shit up by whiteknights/cosplayer herself going "um i don't see it your probably just jelous she's more popular then you lol" and people responding to that
Even when Patreon sluts aren't slutting they ruin shit. I just want to talk about cons, man.

>>9442132
Get tested for mono. I had the same problem and my doctor kept insisting it must be anemia or depression since I was a kissless virgin at the time, but it turned out to be mononucleosis. Apparently you can even get it by drinking from the same glass as an infected person or something like that.

>>9442182
My boyfriend did have mono in the past and we just got done spending 3 months together, but he left back home (LDR) but I'm not entirely sure it is mono. I don't have the fever or swollen glands, just the exhaustion.

I just want to sleep for 15 hours and wake up and sleep again, I have no motivation to drag myself through work or school or graduation or anything else.

>>9442190
When I got it I didn't notice any swollen glands and the only 'fever' I had felt more like a mild summer cold. It might not be mono, but it's worth looking into.

>>9442138
Hey I considered the semi creepy vibes too, no worries. I'm not that naive. (I've had a stalker before actually) I'm just typically good at knowing when dudes like this have bad intent and he made no comments on my physical appearance or really anything other than my parasol. Also the odds of me getting kidnapped in said popular theme park are 0% since I'm not a child. I think if somebody wanted to stalk me they probably could've found me outside of a public theme park.

>>9442147
Dude was very smart and made me feel intimidated since he was previously some sort of film teacher. Very good life advice, also kinda a dork. The philosophical sort, from New York, moved to London, now he's here temporarily till he moves to Japan for job opprtunities. I found that interesting, but overall it was kind of a mysterious encounter and he had a vocal dialect that I haven't really heard ever where I'm from (the south), so it really stood out. Then again anything stands out when all people wear is khakis and all they drive are trucks.

Got secondhand Maxicimam OP in the mail, it's from 2001. I paid 1500 yen for it. It's gorgeous fabric and basically flawless, just some yellowing that will wash out. I'm so happy anons.

>>9442194
I'm gonna take your advice and get this checked out as soon as I can, I don't want to let it go and turn into something more serious. Thank you for the advice anon!

>>9441947
Your friend is the reason you have self esteem issues.

>>9442131
Sounds like a good day anon. Creep factor or not, it's not like people's social media is 100% private. He could have gotten your name from when you were working too... because it is a popular theme park and he could have run into you before.

>>9442274
Nice get!

Good luck to both of you! I went through a cancer care shortly after a convention with my dad, but thankfully it was caught early as well and he was up and walking after his surgery a couple of days later.

Sending you both good vibes!

Epstein-Barr virus (mononucleosis) is spread through coughing and sneezing from someone with an active infection. It's just not quite as contagious as the common cold so it's association with that form of transfer is not so commonly known.

It's mostly known as the "kissing disease" because you can catch it kissing someone who has had the infection at any point in their lifetime. After infection, it lies latent in the body with the possibility to infect anyone with that sort of close contact. You can catch it though from someone with an active infection who coughs or sneezes near you. You just aren't as likely to catch it as you would a cold.

>>9442174
In my cause it really wasn't depression, maybe in the other Anon it is and I think they should check like I did in case since what you said is correct. I was just hoping to find someone who might have been in the same situation as me tiredness wise.

Also I look into what these Anons said since it might be whats effecting me too.

I guess i'm an old school weirdo, but does anyone still use IRC?

I kind of miss the days when it had a more healthy diverse mix of people, these days its pretty much just guys like me who've never moved onto more modern platforms like twitter or Facebook.

>>9442131
I don't know where you work, but this sounds like Epcot. And if it's Epcot, then he will come back again to drink around the world and find you. I hope you're a CP. P.S. he like you.

>>9443151
I'm a linoox supernerd guy and everyone that still uses IRC falls into the same or a similar stereotype anymore. I don't think it's ever coming back.

>>9443151
>>9443285
I handed out thousands of business cards over the last several years at cons and only a handful of people even know what IRC is anymore.

>>9443315
I have directly observed people look at an irc chatroom and describe it to each other as "they're tweeting. You can see them tweet in real time." Also, fuck you Twitter for sticking to your retarded sms compatibility concept for so long.

>>9442931
Update.
I saw him again yesterday in full Lolita. We grabbed dinner and just talked about general things. I listened to him teach me about books and famous designers. Found out that he knew my name because someone in his life was also named the same name so it was more of an impulse thing. Found out he's a fashion designer, actually but he was more of the /fa/ type so he didn't particularly consider it real fashion. He said though when he went out and saw how others interacted with me he felt his perspective change and thought that Lolita was more or less the future sort of inspiration for other main stream fashions. We talked about life and countries amongst fun things like riding rides. Also he gave me a lot of inspirational life advice without hitting on me once. So, yeah, I casually accidentally met a high fashion menswear creator from NY for holding a parasol. Really nice experience and kinda magical.

>>9443175
I uh, don't work there no. And it wasn't Epcot. Did some other person have the same experience I did but in another park? Or are you his brother, maybe?

You better not show him this or I'll be embarrassed. I mean it.

>>9441112
>>I remember it isn't socially acceptable out of lolita to buy your friends 7-year-old 3rd hand socks as a birthday present

This is so true, I'm dying.
Holy fuck I didn't realize how bad this sounds out of context. What's worse is that I've straight up gifted socks that have dingy stains on the soles to people before, and of course they loved it and it's just kind of a "it happens, but they're cleaned and nobody will see that part so no biggie" thing; but just imagine someone opening that present at a large birthday party in front of everyone.

>>9443350
That's so neat!

Discord is the new IRC. It pretty much serves the same purpose but with modern flash.

Sure it isn't AS flexible but Discord has seriously reminded me of my oldschool IRC days and I'm really glad I got into it. Skype was shit and I uninstalled that garbagedump as soon as I had some good discord servers under my belt.

>>9442646
I did think that but I take a multivitamin every day that has 100% B12 in it, and I get about 50-100% extra of some things in my diet.

I did realize that I've only been tired since I've started taking my multivitamin every day and today I skipped it and feel significantly better. I was researching if there was a correlation between them and it turns out a lot of people feel the same way as I do,
after they take their vitamins they just crash hours later.
I could be overloading on vitamins too and that's why I feel like utter shit.

>had a con crush on this dude since 2015
>find out he's going to become a woman

Wtf, the one cool cosplay guy I had a chance with, and he's about to turn his hot dog into a bun.

After months of unemployed depression, I pulled myself out of bed at 6am today and made huge strides in a prop I thought I gave up on a month ago.

Oh well. Time for the inevitable post-breakthrough crash where I'll masturbate to yaoi, fall asleep, and tell myself that I'll find a job "later tonight."

Still, baby steps. It feels great to actually be doing things again (besides lying in bed feeling numb)!

>>9443443
I mean, if you still want the dick they might not go through with that spevific surgery.
But man, what a shocker.

Protip if you want a stable relationship don't try to get with someone that wants to mutilate their own genitals.

My package was out for delivery today so I was waiting with the door to my room open so I can hear knocking better. I decide to move downstairs to the room by my front door so there will be no way for me to miss the postman.

As I go down the stairs I see the postman leave with my package. I run after him hoping to catch him before he leaves but he's already in the mail van driving off. If I was 10 seconds faster I would have my brand now. I won't be in town tomorrow so I'll have to wait even longer. RIP

I remember back when twitter was starting to become popular a few tech blogs published articles along the lines of "IRC IS DEAD, TWITTER IS THE NEW IRC"

I was just thinking about how cute salopettes are, and how I'll never be able to pull them off because of my huge tits. But then I remembered that I'll never even look good in lolita because of my gross boobs, so I don't know why I was even thinking about wearing a salopette.

Way to shoot yourself in the foot idiot. He was interested in you, but then you showed him a superior 2D girl option and he chose her instead and completely forgot about you.

I'm devastated
I began talking with a girl from 4chan from a rp thread, eventually we moved to discord. Things got personal eventually and i began to get feelings for her, not sure if it was love or something? She was being so nice to me. She always called me cute,tell me how she would "hug me" if i was there, and silly things like these that were both simple teasing and sweet talk.
When we talked about what we looked like (too shy to send pics and i'm not going to send pics to someone i know since less than a month) and the way she described herself was exactly my type.
Today after she told me that "she" was a "he" and was roleplaying this whole time and thought I was roleplaying as well for a moment too but then realized I was a real girl and a real lesbian and didn't dare to tell me right away.
I haven't cried like this in months.
I just started to hope that a girl somewhere cared for me. I had someone to think about when hugging a pillow at night (because that's how pathetic I am)
I'm a fucking idiot. I mean, 4chan, really? What did I hope for? But still, it hurts me more than it should. I was just so happy talking to her, you know?
The dude was really nice about it,told me I was really making his life happier and he always smiled talking to me, told me how he was really sorry for that,... so I'm not mad at him and told him it was ok but that i would just rather go away. But I feel like the worst fucking fool.

I just wanted to feel loved too for once.

>>9443627
You made the mistake of forgetting there's no girls on the internet.

>>9443583
I know this feel. Lost a friend I knew since 4th grade because I was too busy with school and he was too involved with a single mother he was dating. But I made friends with a few classmates that were at the same con as me, the first new friends I've had in 8 years. Hang in there, anon. Unless you're Chris-Chan levels of awkward, the secret really is to just be yourself.

Sakuracon was last week, I guess.

I live in a small town with very few girls in my comm. I organize meets every month. This month's meet was supposed to be today in 2 hours, but everybody is cancelling on me right now. I'm not upset at all, because everybody had legit reasons to cancel (and even if they didn't, that's fine), but still makes me really sad that they might not love lolita as much as I do.

I'll dress in lolita by myself at home to cheer up.

>>9443722
I'm sorry, anon. You can always dress up nicely and go out for tea on your own, though!

>>9441433
Agreed, I may have a crush for you a-anon-chan

Relating to your problem, hook him, what are you waiting for? Maybe long distance relationships are iffy, but how will you know if it works for y'all if you never try? I would just tell him how you feel, he will most likely do the same, and make yourselves exclusive before the con.

I mean, that may be trying a but hard though, it sounds like yall both like eachother a lot so it's likely that it'll stay that way regardless of if you date or not.

>>9441953
>leave Uni out
Funny story about this, when I applied for my now career job, I didn't leave it out completely but I just put the relevant courses I'd taken that pertained to the position on my resume.
I never actually graduated but I'm pretty sure my boss assumes I have a degree and that's why she hired me.
We never talked about it but occasionally she will mention something about me graduating from XYZ school and I just don't correct her.
A year later and I'm kicking ass in my chosen field with no degree.

i'm having such a hard time making actual friends in the lolita community. don't get me wrong, i've met a lot of nice girls, but "nice girls" is kind of all they are. i want to pass the awkward pleasantries stage and enter an actual friendship, but i don't have enough in common with most of them or they just don't seem interested in having a conversation that surpasses the typical "how are you today"

that and i've met some downright weird people, but that comes with any niche interest group. i've just had no luck making female friends because we're all constantly stuck in this faux-friendship rut of hollow compliments and a single shared interest. i have trouble enjoying comm meets for the same reason, because all we do is dress somewhat similarly and spend a few hours fawning over each other in a public space

i'm definitely too picky, but i just really wish there was another lolita i clicked with.

>tfw you're old enough to think perfectly legal cos-girls are "too young" for you

I'm sorry, Miku with braces.

>>9443896
are you me? the only people i ever seem to click with are basement dwellers who play video games all day. i want lolita friends but i have no idea what anyone is talking about at meetups once they start talking about things that aren't lolita. i guess it doesn't help that i don't really watch much anime and that seems to be the go-to topic.

>>9443919
story?

>>9443896
Making new friends is hard in and out of the lolita community. I also have a hard time turning my friendships from casual acquaintance to closer friendship. I guess you just need to keep talking until you find common interests.

>>9443610
This desu

I was about to take a picture of myself with my coord when my chair broke and I fell down from it.

>>9443722
Had the same thing happen to me recently, decided to go out in lolita anyways and still managed to have some fun... but also had to break up with someone I was seeing after the event
>Guy starts chatting with me through a facebook group
>Pretty nice, also a older ex-weeb so we have a lot in common
>We meet up for a date and he's super cute and really really sweet
>Have fun during our date, even sperg out about 4chan stuff, but something just feels kinda off you know?
>I know he's nice, and psychically attractive but something is just telling me no
>Try to dismiss it
>"I'm probably just feeling this way because I'm not used to guys being sweet to me."
>"He has confidence issues, but that can be fixed with time!"
>"We don't chat much on facebook, but he might just be feeling awkward"
>A few dates in decide to have a talk with him
>It goes pretty well, he's very honest with me and is willing to try and improve
>Try to just take it month by month, or week by week, but notice that all I do when talking to friends about him is complain
>I know I shouldn't be dragging him along, decide to break up next time I see him
>Next time we scheduled to meet was after a meetup because at the time I wanted him to see me in lolita
>Shit.
>Try to convince him not to come
>Some shit happens with his family and he says he wants to come because he needs a distraction
>I can't keep trying to play the girlfriend
>Break up with him after the meet
>We have a long talk, and he seems upset but takes it well
Fuck I'm a terrible person. I know stringing him along longer would've been bad as well, and I stressed it isn't his fault that it didn't work out but I still feel horrible.

Went out to celebrate a friends engagement, was so happy for her and I'm really excited about being a bridesmaid. Wore something 'normie' because posh bar. Got creeped on. It's been so long since I went out not in lolita, or with bf present, or both that I was completely blindsided. Need my petti as a deterrent clearly, because I am not quick witted enough with my retorts.

Then found out that a family friend I grew up with committed suicide yesterday, so feeling really numb. I haven't really spoken to him in 15 years but we were like cousins growing up and he was only 28, world makes no sense... Worry how it's going to affect my parents too (Mum has know his parents since she was at school, Dad is the dad's best friend and lost his own girlfriend to suicide last year).
Puts my worries into perspective y'know?

>used to be into vintage fashion before lolita
>forgot about it for a few years
>been reading a lot of fashion history articles and looking at vintage repro shops lately

What reaction image was it?

>>9440904
Ok maybe this is one of those "it doesnt really work and only worked for you" things;
but have you considered volunteering somewhere with whatever degree you have, currently?
I mean, it sucks to not have a job, but it would be less stressful than interning [working for free on a damn schedule], and would still count as "experience". unless its something you cant use in that way. STEM is a pretty giant area. What type of degree did you get?

Do you ever go out with a really nice guy and it makes you really sad because you know you're going to ruin it?

>>9442021
I feel you, anon. I (thankfully) have a couple friends who are willing to come to cons with me, but it's easy to tell that they aren't super interested in them. At least not as interested as I am. They don't cosplay either.

I've had some pleasant experiences with people at cons, but it doesn't really go beyond that. I don't know how to turn it into a friendship that extends outside the con.

>>9443896
Oh I know that feeling, anon. I used to live in another city and got on with the girls in that comm fairly well and we'd even chill outside of meets. I moved and had to join another comm and I just cannot click with anyone like I used to.

>>9442005
I dont think guys texting a lot has to be weird, or sexual, like if they dont get to talk about nerdy hobbies much with other people they know irl.

But a guy texting a bunch when you aren't responding? yeah hes creepy and crushing.

>go to cosplay meet-up for the first time
>teenagers
>most of them are loud and obnoxious
>oldest ones there are me, the person that runs the group, the photographer, and an FMA cosplayer
>FMA cosplayer won't stop talking about how everyone loves his cosplay and it's what he's well known for
>literally won't talk about anything else and this is his introduction
>smile and nod but want to die
>stay quiet the whole time because I'm embarrassed by their behavior
>politely decline offer to get lunch after
>think about how nice it would've been to stay home
I went with an open mind even if, at the last meetup (which was 21+ only), the guy that runs them said that the cosplay meets tend to attract a younger crowd. Never again.

I'm not sure how to feel. I haven't worn lolita in months because I've been so focused on my studies. Later on this year I'm transferring to another school to act study in the field I want to go into. It's a pretty intensive program that requires a lot of work and travel and I doubt I'll have time for lolita. I keep staring at my wardrobe and feeling sort of sad.

>>9444017
Yesyesyes, exactly this. Trying to make some friends through Facebook now since there arent a lot.of cons where I'm living.
Were gonna make it someday my friend, just gotta keep trying.

>>9443551
Dont be silly.
Maybe you can't pull off salopettes, I know I cant.
But skirts+blouse look amazing on people with boobs if you aren't big everywhere, and just get custom blouses, which is easy with taobao. Or just custom jsk/ops. Seriously though, never salopettes. qq

>>9444040
My boobs aren't big enough that I can't wear brand JSKs. They fit in a good amount of them, I just hate how they look. Noticeable boobs never suit lolita in my opinion. Doesn't help that I'm into sweet.

Maybe I just need to work on my self esteem and be okay with not having my idea of a perfect body. And I do like skirts with blouses a lot, so I'll take your advice.

>>9443722
I had the same thing happen with me, but not lolita, with vacation. I have 4 day work weeks, and every blue moon, it lines up in a way where i get 4 day weekend (friday off first week, saturday, sunday, monday off another week).

Months ahead of time, I planned to go to boston to visit my friend who works there weekdays, and my other bestie was going to.

Other bestie ends up having to stay home because parents decided to leave town, and she has to babysit her sisters.

Friend from boston decides shes tired of boston and rather spend those days somewhere else, even though the whole point of the trip was "oh you already have a hotel so it'll be a cheap vacation for all of us" which is what was initially discussed.
Tried to make new plans with other people, but its so close to the time, noone can take the days off. I feel like I wasted my 4 day weekend, and its not even until next week.

>>9444006
Neo-Rockabilly, anon. It ruined vintage for the rest of us.

>>9443466
Let's not go there okay?

>>9444006
Snap, I've been getting back into vintage too. What I've noticed is that it really triggers the few body image insecurities I have in a way that lolita doesn't. I'm not one of those people who got into lolita because it makes me feel pretty and nothing else does, but I've gotten so used to looking almost exclusively at jfash that I've forgotten what mainstream stuff is like. A lot of normie trends objectively look better on tall girls, or, if it's pre-60s, really curvy girls - total opposite of how good jfash is for short flatties. Even when I'm looking at modern normie clothes it's so hard to guess how they'll fit on me from photos when the models are inevitably 6" or more taller than me.

My acquaintance wants to sing Magnet with me at the con. It's a weeb song about being lesbians.

Do you think she wants the v?

>>9442170
Get your D3 checked, you feel like shit if it's low. Or just take a supplement, it won't hurt.

>>9443973

I Haven't worn lolita in over half a year because I feel fat and stupid in it. I own a lot of pieces that don't fit. Trying to lose weight and have somehow gained 5 pounds. Fuck.

So my boss had an afternoon talk with me concerning my subpar work and lack of enthusiasm. He doesn't think I should be in public administration anymore and I need to prepare being laid off soon. I called my Dad tonight. My Dad is attorney and he agreed with my boss. It was more or less a "I told you so."

The reason I went into public administration was to get away from my Mother's career in finance (who is disgraced for her unethical behavior from the 2008 crash) and my Dad's career because I find law to be a bore.

I'm probably going to move back with my parent's soon and sell my brand to pay for future expenses in school. The thought I have to change careers so early is frustrating. Most of the time one's career is determined by their parents so I may have to pick between finance or law.

>>9444258
>Most of the time one's career is determined by their parents

What? Are you a Sim? I've never heard of that before, and I can't say I know anyone who has the same career as either of their parents.

>>9443458
You can do it, anon. Persevere.

>>9444234

I wish lolita was more RP-ish. I hate how lifestyle is considered really weird when, in my opinion, I think it should be the norm.

>>9444368
Honestly I don't think older people have a place at con outside of staffing that much.

Every con I've been to is quite awkward when old people try to start up conversation or be your friend. It's even worse with the old guys that will hit on you and the breeders who bring their vile screeching children.

I think comic cons and fan expo events are better fits for older people since the crowd in general is old.

tl;dr old ppl are no good

>>9444258
Do you want to be in public administration?
If so, it's definitely not too late to stay.
Tell your boss that his talk made you realise how much you value your job, and then work hard to change his opinion of you. Ask for a review in 3 months to see what progress you have made. Demonstrate commitment and they'll be happy to keep you.

If you don't like your field, think hard about what it is YOU do want to do. Make a list of things about your current (and any previous jobs), education etc. you have enjoyed, a list of skills you have, target fields where you get to use your skills in an environment you prefer.

e.g. good at science, like helping people, enjoy a sociable work environment, prefer work tasks to be mostly routine/repetitive = look at training as a lab tech (completely pulled out of thin air example)

There are a million different jobs out there anon

>>9444368
They're neat. Tend to be more chill than the younger crowd, which is nice. I can't fathom how someone would be bothered by their mere presence.

Do the stylists think it's cool and edgy to contrast a beautiful, floral feminine vintage dress with a model who has a snot-green undercut and raunchy chest tattoos? It's an awful image and I don't want the dress anymore, or any dress modeled by one of these ogres. I don't think lolitas should be lovlies 24/7 but I'm glad the brands at least choose pretty models that don't look like they'd reek of cigarette smoke and cheap liquor.

Can we trade bodies? I'm short but curvy and I really wish I could be flat and look okay in lolita. Also as someone who has always wanted a flat chest even before getting into jfash, I get jealous when people are insecure about being flat. I know it makes no sense to be jealous of insecurity because I'm insecure, but I'd rather be insecure about having a flat chest. At least lolita would help me with that insecurity instead of making it 10x worse. Also I have no interest in vintage fashion, so don't tell me to just wear that instead of the one fashion I actually like.

Got caught up in the first feel forgot the other. I came to the realization just recently that I like dating women but I like having sex with men and not the other way around at all. I would love to have a lolita gf to go and do all kind s of stuff with together, but I have zero sexual attraction to women. But then I really get bored and exasperated dating guys because they never seem to want to do anything but I like the d. so I guess I'll just never date anyone again.

I think I have a thing for a guy in my comm. This sucks. I know how to keep it in my pants, but I feel guilty for gushing over ouji boy when my boyfriend and I are so close. I'd like to tell myself I can't control who I find attractive, but I feel like I'm just making excuses for myself.

>omw to a between-con party with all my favourite con friends

>>9444633
I miss those days. Have fun, anon!

>>9444630
You can't help being attracted to people, anon, that's perfectly natural.

>>9444630
It's okay if you find him attractive, it's not something you can really help. It's your actions that truly matter. Don't cheat and you're fine.

>>9441433
>ONLY HELD HANDS
You're the legendary unicorn, anon-chan. You are valueable, more than the instahoes.

>>9444630
Try not to fantasise and definitely don't act on it, and the butterflies will eventually fade away. The guy probably isn't even straight if he's wearing ouji.

>>9444641
>>9444645
>>9444648
Thanks, anons. I know rationally there's not too much I could've done to keep me from thinking this guy is cute, but I still feel like I did something wrong. I could never cheat on my boyfriend, I really do think we'll be together for a while. (Who doesn't, though?) That's why I feel so bad about this; and it's so atypical, I don't usually find guys attractive in the first place.

I hope the butterflies will fade away; I'll keep hope!

TFW too small to be considered plus sized Lolita but too big to be considered average Lolita. Curse these medical issues and fluid retention.

>>9440904
Are you me, anon? Got a MSc in the time it takes to normally get a bachelors in a STEM field (with experience to boot), all jobs contract work with zero benefits and insultingly low pay, people who actually hold "real" positions at the company (purely because they got in when the market was better) use your position as an excuse to treat you like utter shit.
I ended up doing a year at Clorox health, after doing all the work while the other chemists sat around and socialized (and bullied me, I tried filing a harassment claim but there was literally no HR and management was part of the clique), I found a huge scientific error with how they justified one of their products which if the FDA knew would put the company under even worse scrutiny than it already is, BUT it implicated someone who had since moved on to management(yup, same one) so instead of fixing it, it was covered up and I was unceremoniously let go.

I took the 6 months unemployment from the state and re enrolled in a CS program, now I have an internship making literally double what I made at Clorox and will most likely be hired in after the summer, making even more money. If it wasn't such a hassle, I'd probably sue for discrimination but at least I have kinda a happy ending

TL;DR:
>Got an advanced STEM degree
>Clorox is the literal worst
>Now 23 and on my second career
>Seriously, fuck Clorox

>>9444690
Some actually relevant feels:
>Reconnected with dude I had a semi-flirtatious friendship with for years.
>He ditched the shitty relationship that made us lose contact
>He has since found the kawaii animu princess of his dreams
>I've also found someone I'm extremely smitten with
>I'm glad we're both happy, and we both want a genuine friendship
>We're both going to the same con in a couple months
>I really want to hang out as like, couples
>Worried it'll be weird because our former friendship was based on being attracted to each other (nothing ever came of it, but still)

All four of us cosplay, so it would be really cool if everyone got along. This might be the making of a cool cosplay friend group and I'm kinda excited.

Now some sad feels
>Best friend of a decade
>one that got me into cosplay/going to conventions
>Always traditionally stayed with me during our home con
>Staying with this one girl that actively hates me instead
>(Used to be friends, but used me/took advantage of me in a big way and hates me because I called her out on her shit and broke contact)
>Gives bullshit excuse as to why
>"We can still hang out, if you're going"
>oh

I know it's because he wants to get high at the con and they're the ones who are into that stuff while my idea of con partying is having some wine and playing Mario Party, but it still kinda hurts. I guess I'm going through a lot of changes this year, gulls.

>>9444050
I don't know if it works for sweet but if you have a small waist with a larger bust (which doesn't always look good in lolita) you should have a look a corsets/waist cinchers. I wear gothic so it's easier for me to pair it but it definitely makes things looks more flattering.

>>9444337
Oh god, it's like looking at my emo-era MySpace.

I feel like I'm back in that rundown Hot Topic at the ghetto mall with my pink-haired gf.

Triggered af right now.

>>9444234
>that picture

>>9444670
I'm jelly. ;__; My bf doesn't want to touch me while I'm on my period and it sucks because that's when I want the most dick.
He's gotten better thankfully.

>>9444670
Are you a vampire or something?

>>9444717
Wouldn't a corset just make my bust look bigger?

>>9440820
>>9441104

I personally wish there were more 20-30 yr olds portraying 20-30 yr old characters. Praying to see good adult Kobayashi (dragon maid) cosplayers at cons

>>9444622
This happened to me as well. Your story is a bit more budlite than mine but: Similar situation to you but she bailed for a really stupid reason (which was actually a lie for an even stupider reason, which I found out about later) so I stopped initiating hanging out with her. She had flaked in the past too and was also pretty self absorbed, should have seen the flags before deciding I wanted to be close friends.

Years later, I am happy with my friendships while last I heard she still has a hard time holding on to people. I have other friends who are at least honest with me or don't flake unless it's a good reason.

Things turn out a lot better when you don't enable that kind of bullshit or at least speak up about it if it bothered you. I let it slide and had some of the worst friendships of my life.

Trying to host a meet this weekend I've planned for a month and people keep cancelling last minute. I'm tempted to just cancel the event. I made 15 mini gifts and only need 5 JFC.

>>9444862
>>9444871
why do people do this? i understand things happen unexpectedly but with it happening last minute with so many people? just be honest if you don't want to go to something at the getgo or be a decent fucking person and keep your original plans. for the meet you should start charging a nonrefundable fee for meets to avoid that total bs

>break off friendship with two people due to them excluding me from everything and being shitty people (like physically hitting me, name calling, etc.)
>out $100 but finally don't have to deal with their shit
>back into anime/manga and jfashion
>shitty friends not here to make fun of me for it
>have no friends currently but at least it's better than toxic friends.

Overall good feels. Almost done with P5 and I want to cosplay as Ann or something.

>>9444888
I'm proud of you for cutting shitty people out of your life anon. Hopefully you will make better friends through cosplay and jfashion !

>when you find out that the "hot girl" you con crushed on so hard was a boy

The only difference between a girl and a trap is which one has a hole, and which has two.

>>9444825
Not if you get the right kind. They make corsets that go up a little farther on your chest that are made to compress and flatten the boobies.

>tfw a person in your friend group messages you out of no where trying to instigate drama a month before the con
why

>>9444985
You can't just tell us that without context and a screenshot

>tfw my online friends are overall all nice people
>tfw almost all of them lean towards SJW-ism, some more then others
>tfw I get anxious because I feel like I have to tiptoe around every subject and joke

They're not all that bad or anything but it's weird knowing that despite accepting whatever stuff they do even if it's silly, they'd probably cut me off the moment they'd think I'm not as ~progressive~ as them.

Sometimes I just want to drop all of them just so I don't have to feel this unnecessary anxiety anymore.

>>9444990
so are you sad that you cant make racist jokes as freely anymore or say fag as often or something

>>9444993
I never did those kind of things. Think more like being told that you're not 'upset enough' about.. well whatever the issue is that week. And that issue being something incredibly SJW.

>>9444990
>>9444998
yeah it sucks when people start calling you out on saying shitty things, that's the real oppression IMO

>>9445001
Whatever you want to believe anon

>>9445001

LOL you must be fun at parties.

>>9444998
It's annoying when you don't really disagree with what they claim to want, just... they push that bit too far, how they are willing to seriously shit on someone who isn't on their side and seem to compete for snowflake status.

>>9444998
like with issues are we talking about. like LGBT discrimination in the workplace or like, fat acceptance?

>>9445021
You put it into better words then I did. Unfortunately saying it's a bit much might as well mean that I hate them for some of them.

>>9444990
same, and i don't get why that anon is coming at you about this. i basically grew up on 4chan so my sense of humor is offbeat and i'm used to hanging out with dudes. i have to watch myself when i'm talking to some of my lolita friends because they're all super sensitive and would get genuinely upset if i made an otherkin joke or something. it's stupid that people are trying to make you out as some kind of insensitive big bad meanie, lol. people need to stop taking things so personally and just brush it off.

>>9445067
That's pretty much it yeah. I'm not even the type that does offensive humor, at most it's a bit crude but even that is too much for some of them.

Makes me wonder how they'll function once they're out of college and real life will hit them.

>>9445067
>would get genuinely upset if i made an otherkin joke
Why do you remain friends with people like this?

>>9445101

>>9445015
You can be fun and not be a piece of shit edgelord WOW GROUNDBREAKING I KOW

>>9444990

>>9445101
because it's possible to have friends that you don't entirely agree with. i get what you mean though, it's irritating.

>>9444990
While I completely understand, a lot of the hate comes from the fact that a lot of people that say things like this usually use it to excuse their shitty behavior. 'You're just being too sensitive and can't take a joke!!1!1!!' when in actuality they're just an asshole

>>9445107

>>9441433
For real anon, you sound cute, but careful with this "I'm nothing" talk. You're probably just joking but sheltered homeschool-chans are both adorable and incredibly vulnerable to abuse because they lack both self-esteem and the experience to notice the warning signs of being undervalued and used. I'm from a conservative family that think normal relationships are for slutty trash and it really fucked up my ability to distinguish between "normal healthy thing that my family think is evil because they're incredibly religious" and "actual predatory, abusive or irresponsible behaviour that anyone would think is bad".

>>9445181
actually, the majority of this board does, you illiterate fucking cow. go back to your garbage website, we dont want you here fucking tranny

>>9445228
I think I might be in a situation like that. It's hard to tell.

>>9445238
I'm not sure if this is a situation 4chan can help you with, but try to build real-world social networks around people that aren't from your homeschool bubble or his friends, and watch out for signs of him trying to distance you from other people (when you have a shitty family and no other friends, it's easy for abusers to justify isolating you by encouraging you to drop contact with your family - your priority should be to make other friends as well).

My friend has been telling me about the horrible fairground con he went to this weekend.

It was next door to a duck-hunting show, and drunk rednecks kept wandering over. Plus somebody clogged the toilet and two poops floated into the dealer room.

I'm so thankful for jfashion helping to bring me out of my shell and discover myself. Ive met so many great girls online and irl through it and I've found new hobbies that make me feel more well rounded. I'm comfortable with myself and have an easier time making friends. I've realized people like me even though im kind of weird and that the right people will appreciate my weirdness. I'm so happy gulls

>>9445344

This is probably easy to fix but I was quite disheartened. I'll see if I have better success hiding my hair properly tomorrow.

>>9445266
I went into a con bathroom once, and the floor was just covered in shit. The worst part is that there was a footprint in it.

My classmates deliberately didn't invite me to our 5-year HS reunion, and (according to one girl who messaged me) it's because they were worried I'd show up in "princess clothes".

They don't even really own the print.... and I thought it wouldn't be much fun for someone to come in a shitty replica while everyone else was wearing the real thing. Does that make me elitist? Not to mention most of the people that went don't like that person, so I didn't want it to be awkward..

>>9445568
honestly i would just stop talking to B and only communicate with her through A, maybe eventually both of them will take the hint that you're not fond of B

>>9441133
If she's having it done at her gyno's office, call around to local women's clinics. They might be able to get her an appointment earlier, so she can have time to recoup and go with you.

>>9444014
Yeah. It makes me really uncomfortable. I still messed up/ felt awkward talking to my boyfriend after 3+ years, so how am I ever going to be normal? I feel bad for the guy because I look like an average girl, but on the inside I'm odd.

>boyfriend lives in Nevada
>I live in LA
>just found out he's a /pol/tard
>complains and said he wanted to break up with me because I cheated on him
He's like hundreds of miles away and I have my needs. What really irks me is that he's trying to dictate what I can and can't do even though he's hundreds of miles away.

Is this bait or something???? How could someone cheat on their SO and not expect a breakup.

>>9445683
I thought the /cgl/ rule was cheating is OK if it's with the same sex, or was it opposite sex of your current partner...

>>9445693
The /cgl/ rule is to be completely and utterly self-centered and uncaring at all times and blame other people for the bad things you do.

>>9445654
nice bait, /pol/. now go home

It's not. Only income above the limit of your old tax bracket is taxed at your new tax rate. To have copped an extra $3500 in tax above what you were already taking out you'd need to have had one insane as fuck raise

It's only going to get worse. You'll continue growing older but the crowds will continue being full of teenagers. What else do you expect from a con?
My local fencing group is mostly 30-something dudes, though. Teens show up sometimes when a new tv series or game popularises fencing but they usually drop out once the hype blows over.

Get yourself a cute feminine bf, that's what I did and I'm finally happy. He's nice, not annoying like most guys, and attractive

>>9445553
Wow. They could have just asked you not to.

>>9444629
If you have no sexual attraction to women, it's not really dating, is it? Just get a female BFF who you go to movies and dinner and museums with and dress up together, it's normal behaviour and not lesbian-exclusive.

I mean, assuming you're a woman from your post. If you're a guy that's kind of a more difficult situation, but I don't think their date not wanting to have sex is a problem many gay guys face so I assumed you were female.

>>9445903
Anon, that's great! I'm so proud of you!

>>9444629
Its perfectly fine for couples to do their own things in my opinion, so long as you are with someone who you share some interests with, and care for, it's no big issue if from time to time you need to girlie-girlie things away from them.

I mean, sure, some guys are total bores who don't even like trying anything new. But plenty of men are open minded.

>>9445553
>5 year high school reunion.

Seems kinda pointless. Most would just be fresh out of Uni. Aren't these things usually 10+ years?

>>9445938
It's a popular print with lots of replicas so I don't think so

>>9444759
I don't have a bf, but I understand this so much. I almost never want sex, but my period completely changes that along with amplifying my feelings of love for my crush even more. I also don't get cramps, and while I get more irritable, I'm an easily angered, emotional mess most of the time anyway, so there's not a lot of negatives. I feel bad for girls who can't experience a period as awesome as mine. The only real downside is most likely not being able to have sex on my period once I start dating my crush, but who knows, maybe he's into that. Though the greater desire for dick stays for a few days after my period ends, so it's okay if he isn't. I know because my period just ended yesterday.

>>9445974
>tfw 10-year reunion next month

I am an old lolita.

>>9444990
I share this feel so much. I'm not even a joking type and refrain from swearing in person. What's really galling is the same people going "omg this is so racist" are the same ones going "white people are awful". And I'm speaking as a brown hispanic immigrant from a third world country before you get any ideas about dismissing me because of my skin. They're perfectly nice and lovely people, as long as they see you as part of the tribe. Otherwise you're fair game for rape, pilliage, and feed to the dogs. The local non-sperg cosplay community is pretty small and webbed together so you have to put up with it and not get ostracized to make any friends at all.

>>9445543

Underrated.

>>9446092

Move in to commissions. Start selling your shit and going to cons as a vendor.

>>9446501I have average skills so nobody would buy from me. And I don't think I would enjoy it. I'm still a huge weeb and watch my shows and play my games, but I kinda hate getting out.
