Less comfy feels:

South American natives have some of the biggest ribcages in the world, so I doubt it has anything to do with being Hispanic. Japanese girls have smaller ribcages on average because they’re smaller in general on average, and for the rest of us it’s up to chance (and nutrition and the kind of air you breathe growing up makes a difference too).

I wish you luck anon, my mom bought me a dress this last christmas and it was some dingy little Taobao dress. It isn't even a replica and it has an original design, but it looks so sad. The color is gorgeous, but the straps and the frills at the bottom of the dress are this weird off-white color, she sent me the listing she got it from and it supposed to be a bright white. The design is weird too, I don't know how to describe it though, it just feels off. Part of me just wants to burn it instead of selling it, I'm not sure I want to put a babylita through the shame of wearing a dress so sad.

i love wearing fairy kei and i realized today how different and lonely it is being into niche “weird” hobbies, have no friends, and go to a school full of normies. logging into zoom today and having people being able to see the background of my room full of brand stuff made me feel so stupid.

I know it's not lolita but cosplay, I'm sorry for interrupting the thread.

I have major self harm scars up and down my entire left arm. I'd love to cosplay Reimu and it's cool because she has her arm sleeves, but they're flowy so my arms will still show eventually...

Too used to the streets I go for a walk in being empty because of covid and stepped out without looking. Wasn't going fast so no real injuries but I still ate shit and tore up my arm and side where I scraped the road.

Nah you're not alone. I don't cosplay, but for me it's lolita stuff/everything. I barely do anything anymore because it's like all progression in my life has stopped and I have no control over it. No meets, no traveling, no going to a mall or movie.

After being into lolita for almost a decade and building a nice cohesive closet around ~30 main pieces, I haven't worn it in almost year and I don't want to get rid of my dresses but it's depressing that they're sitting in my closet not being worn. Even before covid I didn't wear them that often, can't walk much because I'm ill so usually stay at home when I'm not at work. But I'd try to go out to do something and get dressed up at least once every month or two. Getting dressed up just to sit around at home makes me feel even more depressed.

I don't like talking about my life so I don't use social media, even abandoned my normie facebook. I hate seeing myself in photos even though I don't think I look that ugly irl, so I've never posted coord photos or anything, but recently I've thought about making an instagram just to post flatlays and whatever so that at least I'm doing stuff with my dresses. But I also feel like it would be weird to keep such an impersonal social media account. Maybe I'm overthinking it.

I have a really heavy and persistent feeling that nothing good will ever happen again. I never realized how much I use cons so that there's something I can look forward to. I try to keep cosplaying and working on new projects at home, but it's just not the same. For a while, I felt like I'm going to spend the rest of my time chasing the high of that first convention I went to when I was 13. Just walking around the near-empty halls at 8:00 am in my shitty ebay cosplay, I was over the moon. Nothing will ever live up to that.
I don't mean to seem totally depressing, but I've been thinking it's time to go for a bit now. I have roughly double the amount of meds that's supposed to cause a strong enough adverse reaction, and with that knowledge, it's hard to convince myself otherwise. I was always scared it wouldn't work, so feeling like I'm fairly sure it will this time is comforting.

Can I gush and blogpost to you gulls for a second? I'm so happy I'm getting to a better place in life. I'm finally becoming more functional/less depressed. I took time off from school because of COVID and now I'm going back, excited for my classes. My body image is in a more stable place thanks to you gulls speaking candidly about your measurements and body types. I'm back to eating 3 meals a day and staying hydrated. This morning I had the terrible urge to stay in bed all day. But I got up, I got dressed in a cutsew, salo, and tights, and cleaned the house (Dream Fantasy is so cozy and the pockets are a fucking lifesaver). I even made breakfast/lunch, which I rarely did before because I was working or exhausted, and now I'm cooking dinner (veggie pasta!!!). It's really thanks to my amazing partner. He encouraged me to quit so I could focus on housework and school. My 6 day a week job was literally making me suicidal with no time to dress up. Things are so much better and the dynamic is so great. I feel so lucky to have someone who's willing to support me and my endeavors as a STEM student trying to get that burando money. I usually come here to bitch and moan but it's nice to have positive news to share. Please tell me about your warm fuzzies and your lovely partners, gulls. I'd love to hear about it.

>So some people do indeed wear a 34 band size that have 34 inch underbust
I do, for one. I rarely get the opportunity though, but I always buy my size at the widest band selection so I get the most life out of my bras as possible.
Bras aren't cheap, and they stretch, not sure why anyone would willingly go through the hassle of having to just keep buying more bras if they don't have to.
I will go for an $80 bra over a $40 one any day though.
