I'm a short girl, and I honestly don't give a fuck if you can see a taller lolis knees. It annoys me how bent out of shape about it people get.

Also, Misako. I think she's adorable rori-chan, but can everyone stop losing their shit over everything she says? She has a strict sense of the fashion and she's a typical Japanese racist, what the fuck do you expect? I think the people who complain about her have no idea what Japan is really like.

Honestly, I don't even care about seeing a loli's knees. As long as it isn't actually slutty-short, I don't really care about the length. Taller lolitas don't suit the style much in general though, imo. I'm 5"5, so I'm pretty close to too tall, but I manage. If I was an inch taller, I wouldn't even bother.

My first coord (I didn't wear a wig - my natural hair was a cute bob at the time). It's not amazing or anything, but not terrible, either. I'd been lurking lolita communities for about two years, though

I don't want to seem like a vendetta chan, but Princess Peachie. She's cute, but her makeup makes me cringe (she honestly doesn't need it), and the lack of brand in her closet depresses me, given that a lot of secondhand brand is cheaper than replicas bodyline these days.

Seriously, I knew people who got made fun of for wearing normalfag clothes in high school. What makes teens think that wearing lolita to high school is foolproof? Like do they want drama for themselves?
I don't even think I would've been allowed to wear things like sweet lolita to my high school, they probably would've attempted to send me home for wearing a costume.

It does make me kind of bitter that people can be on things like benefits and aid and still spend the extra money they have on brand.
Like I'd be more comfortable with someone getting an occasional check from their parents or having their bf pay for their brand than that.

To me it just shows mismanagement of money. If you can afford a $200 dress every month but you still need benefits, you're doing shit wrong.

I don't know. I mean on the one hand, if someone is spending all their benefits money on clothes and they can't afford other essentials then it's bad money management. But what if someone budgets their benefits in order to save and afford brand every now and again? Obviously they wouldn't be able to buy it every month since it would be a case of saving up.

But benefits should go towards people who need it, not people who want to be cozy because they have misplaced priorities.

I'm on benefits because my job doesn't give me enough hours to live on, but the top up amount that is given to me (I'm on the lowest level) still gives me some extra money after paying for my basics.

Actually, that's a pretty common situation. All the people who I know are on benefits have either a full time job with awful pay, or a disability that only allows them to work part time.

The main gripe I have with the benefit system is that once you're in it, you can't get out. If you're on benefits and you manage to earn some money, you don't get to keep it because it's knocked off your benefit. That would be fine, except that they don't always take it off straight away, so it might come off two months later and leave you short, and you have to fill out a twenty page declaration for every single penny, so it eventually becomes not worth it. It's also very hard to budget when you get six different payments a month that are never the same amount or on the same day as they were the month before. I'm sure there would be far fewer people claiming benefits (because a lot of them want to work) if they just made the system simpler. This is why I'm kind glad they're bringing in Universal Credit, even though it's going to be chaos for a while.

Man, I can't wait to go to uni and actually not have to worry about money any more. I'm also going to stop talking about this now.

For about the past two years I've felt like absolute shit 24/7 and it's gotten to the point in the past 8 months where I literally can't be out and about for more than couple hours without passing out from the constant fatigue.

Ahh young Padawan, one day you will be able to tie your waist ties perfectly by yourself. It's just a crushingly difficult learning curve.

A nice thing is that a lot of brands have detachable waist ties. So, tie the bow around your front, make it as pretty as you like, unbutton and button them in the back. Done.

That doesn't always work. Whenever I do it on my Melty Chocolate dress, it's tight when I tie it on the front and then it's really loose when I swap it to the back. Although detachable waist ties are great because once they're tied, you can keep them tied.

I know people with thigh gap probably don't have this issue, but does anyone else get seriously annoyed that the crotch area of their tights eventually rub away because your thighs touch together? I really resent it.

I remember my first con I ever went to, I wore lolita and somehow my waist ties came untied. I probably fucked them up anyways. I went to the bathroom to try to fix them, but I was newbie and it was so hard. Then this beautiful super-loli walks in and sees me struggling and is all "Here, let me help you."

I remember thinking she was a fucking angel or something.

I was on medication, but I came off it because I really hated the way it made me feel. I know people call them happy pills but they don't make you happy. Just neither up nor down and apathetic and empty. It's horrible. That is, if they even work. They also made me gain weight, which I'm trying to shift at the moment. I'd rather be constantly on the verge of suicide than living in synthesized shades of grey, if you get what I mean. I probably need to switch to a better medication, but I'm just so exhausted by the endless crap thrown at me by the doctors and therapists that I just don't want anything to do with anything any more.

I'm glad your switch worked for you and you found meds that fitted, and I'm glad you got out of your rut. Thank you for reaching out to me, it really means a lot.

I don't even think he apologized, he just sort of went 'oops.'

But I try to bear in mind that this is also the same snarky cunt that: grabbed a fistful of cake on my sweet sixteen and smashed it in my face, would act cool with me if he needed a ride someplace but then would go behind my back and talk the worst shit to my social enemies, would always try to say how much more 'beautiful' he was than me, and dressed up as "gay AIDs" on halloween.

The only reason I tolerated this asshole was because my ex friends were friends with him. And he never treated them the same way, just me. Sometimes I feel like posting him here just because he thinks he's such hot shit, but I don't want to be a vendettachan.

Going to meets at restaurants where girls don't bring money, or potlucks where girls don't bring food. If you're not contributing, you shouldn't eat.

I went to a meet at a nice cafe once that had fantastic desserts, it was a pretty small meet, and these two girls didn't bring any money. Then they looked around expecting someone to buy them dessert. They had been so obnoxious in the past that everyone was fed up with their shit and pretty much ignored them. They ate sugar cubes from a bowl from the table and then left.

tfw i feel u
Wanted to kill myself in January, took a fuckton of painkillers, and whatever else was lying around, I don't even remember, thankfully it was nowhere near enough to actually do anything except upset my stomach for a few days. Went to counsellor for help afterwards because I was still in one piece and wanted help,
"everyone feels like that from time to time! You just need to get on with it."

And that's the reason I've never gotten help or meds of any kind, and there's only so much self-help I can do. Being able to wear Lolita cheers me up a bit, it feels nice to dress up. Unfortunately, it's even starting to backfire on me because I feel horribly inadequate and ugly next to everyone else at meetups, so I feel that feel too.

I have been through 8 different antidepressants before I found a medication that finally worked for me (at least it's working for now). I understand how frustrating it is, but medicine is a practice. It's like blood pressure medication, it's hard to tell what's going to work for the right person and people get fed up and quit. And then the side effects...

It took me being hospitalized for a suicide attempt to finally pull some sort of the strings of my life back together. And it's still hard some days and it's so frustrating to have all this bullshit running through your head that you pretty much have no control over.

Don't give up on trying to get better even if it's not through medication. Don't give up on yourself to the point where you can't come back. I know therapists and doctors can be frustrating, but they really are trying to help, and if they aren't, keep going until you find a new one.

I've been through this shit. I'm still living this shit. I understand, I really do. Depression is not who you are. Depression does not define you. I'm quoting Iron Giant here, but you are who you choose to be. Living out that choice can/will be the hardest thing you have to do, but it's better than the alternative.

I get that. I've attempted suicide so many times but after each attempt failing, I sort of took it as a sign (corny as this sounds.) that I'm supposed to try and fix my life as opposed to ending it, though the temptation is always there.

I think I might take your advice and see a new doctor. Mine is just really exasperated all the time.

Before that, I had a nun who was initially lovely, but who spent about 15 mins of one session telling me about how she tore strips off a bus driver in Liverpool in the 70's and who ended up terrifying me. Before that, I had someone who was okay, she gave me a test/questionnaire thing to fill out, but I never got a result from it, and I couldn't keep going to her after I went to college because it just didn't work out. Before I got to see her, I had to wait nine months after asking for help. It was hell.
I guess I'll figure something out eventually. Fingers crossed.

I hated that term too, they're numbing pills. SSRIs just numb people to the point of not caring, so it gets rid of the depression, but everything. It over-does what it's supposed to do.

Wellbutrin worked a lot better for me and it's pretty common to give it to people who did horribly on SSRIs. Regardless of the way you choose to recover, I hope it works for you. Hang in there.

I know this too man. Tried to self-help for my issues that people told me was just "college stress" or "life". But I've seen some shit.
Ended up in the hospital for suicide and later mental unit. Diagnosed with PTSD, General Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, and major depression. Stayed there for a week. It wasn't fun but it was eye opening. Now I'm on meds. Only downside is that I lost 65lbs before hand and the meds aren't really helping me with my weight loss. I either gain or stay the same.
Now it's like an uphill battle making sure my dresses still fit. Might ask if I can switch meds cause gaining weight is just going to stress me out more.

I know that's what's logical to do, but it's hard to unload like that for me to someone. It's a combination of being afraid of them judging me, and my parents raising me to believe that the world doesn't care about my problems and that I should keep them to myself.

You can do that stuff with your Lolita friends without it being a meetup? Then you're not leaving people out. When I was underage my comm used to have a few 18+ meetups and it was really frustrating because they were usually the only meets I was free for.

Are you from the UK? If you are then you can request to see another therapist for whatever reason you like and you can keep on requesting until you find one that's right for you. The waiting time for most services is absolutely appalling but the good news is that once you're in you're in - I got a 3 month waiting list shortened to a few hours because I was already on their books. The trick is to pursue, pursue and pursue which is really difficult when you're unwell but keep ringing for test results and keep ringing about appointments etc. You have a lot of rights as a patient and most (especially in mental health) don't realise it which means that the professionals get to run around doing what they think is best which might not necessarily work for you

Polite sage as this is slightly off topic and you might not even be from the UK which would deem this information irrelevant haha

It's just where we live tbh.
We don't really live in an area with gay culture so really ANYONE that claims to be gay will be worshipped no matter how shitty they act. That's why so many people around here think gay kids are annoying and bisexual chicks are sluts, because there are no good reps for LGBT culture out here to see how most decent people behave.

He's an offensive person. Trust me. Everything he did he used being gay as an excuse:
Groped his girlfriend's boobs in public in front of a bunch of people?
>But I'm gay!
Shouted catty expletives like a fifteen year old when we went out to clubs and bars?
>But I'm gay!
Hit on straight gays that didn't like him and told him to stop?
>But I'm gay!

Give us a picture. If your brows look too thick with nothing in them, trim the hairs with a brow trimmer. If they look too dark, thin them more. If they look too drawn-on with the eyeshadow, take a tissue and rub the eyebrow to remove all the loose pigment and lighten the brow. Draw in hair-like, directional strokes.

Also, my secret is using a light brown liquid liner to add in brow hairs instead of an eyeshadow/brush. Of course, my brows are blonde/brown. For black brows, use a dark brown liquid liner, or mascara for your brows if you're lazy.

This is a thing in the bjd community too. It really baffles me, like you obviously have enough spare money to buy the doll and dress it, all in all a minimum $300 expense (unless they're cheapshits) but you can't at least buy a goddamn drink and slice of pie or something?

Granted I don't get why restaurant meets are even a thing in that hobby because expensive toys on table + large plates of food on table is just a bad idea.

5'7" here. Same here, Putamoyo skirts feel like miniskirts on me. The key is to know what works with your body.

I have a Meta dress that exposes my knees, and the waist is a touch high for my tastes (I hide it with a frilly bolero). Atelier-Pierrot has worked well for me in terms of length and curves (their shirring works wonders for a variety of body types).

I'll also consider Juliette & Justine on secondhand sites in future purchases, as they make longer editions (and probably will continue to do so, to accommodate to one of their taller designers). I'm not too hot on their recent print-happy trend, but if one of their older pieces appears on Maiden Clothing...

There's also custom-sizing on more normal-looking items on taobao, even fanplusfriend. One has to give them ALL of the measurements, though, and mention a special request if you want a different design, like having the skirt to full cover your knees while you're in a petticoat, or make it without the awful lace.

Sewing is awesome, too, if you have the time and dedication to slave over the material. dresses and bloomers made of 100%, ready for the summer, yay.

Also, no ankle socks or knee-high socks. Tights or extremely long thigh highs are the way to go.

The key is work with what your body has.

Hey anon - have you seen a sleep specialist at all? Assuming you've gotten all the "usual" things ruled out (like thyroid issues, anemia, CFS like >>6821351 suggested), but haven't seen one yet, I would try that.
I spent a good 5 or 6 years of my fatigue progressively getting worse to the point where I was (and still am, because my body hasn't been responsive to the limited treatment available) sleeping up to 18 hours a day and never, ever feeling rested. I was diagnosed with a sleep disorder called idiopathic hypersomnia last fall. While that might not be your issue (and I hope it's not, for your sake), there are so many sleep disorders that are more common than people think and very treatable, like sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, and narcolepsy.
What I was eventually diagnosed with is considerably more rare and doesn't have much in the way of treatment (I pretty much just take stimulants so I can stay awake more than 4 hours at a time), but at least having that diagnosis makes things a tiny bit better for me.

Sage for off-topic.

I would extend this to people who come to meet-ups in restaurants and don't buy anything at all (for an illegitimate reason, not a "I'm allergic to the things on this menu" reason).

We're taking up space in a restaurant. You shouldn't just come to hang out and freeload, you should buy something even if it's a soft drink. It makes our community look bad when you show up at a restaurant, expect to stay there for hours, and don't contribute to their business at all.

*shudder*

ANYWAY, gonna contribute.
It drives me mad when newbies make a big deal about how scared they are to go to a meetup in case everyone is a "brand whore" and will look down on them for wearing bodyline/offbrand. Here, nobody cares, and if they do look down on you or make catty remarks, they're a shite community and you're better off without them.

If she is getting the minimum amount, she gets £650 every four weeks and if she is getting the full amount £800 every four weeks. She could save some money easily for ap, she just doesn't value ap as being worth it.

Greedy bi lolita checking in. I get so jelly of all the lesbian lolita couples too, but I have a boyfriend who I would never actually leave for anyone else.
The the idea of a cute lolita girlfriend, sitting drinking hot chocolate in frilly things during a storm and watching period dramas though? Heaven! Maybe I just need a lolita best friend, rather than having creepy daydreams.

OT: I'm not big on how much of a big deal lolitas make about skirts being over the knee. As long as it's no shorter than mid-thigh and the legs are in decent shape, I think it's cute.

People who take the longest time to ship are my biggest pet peeve. Just how fucking busy do you have to be to not able to take 30 minutes out of your day, for THREE WEEKS. Do you honestly expect me to believe you work/stay at school 12 hrs a day every day, saturdays included, entire month, never ever get close to a post office and don't know a single person who can handle this shit for you.

If the seller gets sick or unexpectedly overworked and notifies me quickly, preferably with expected shipping date, that's perfectly reasonable. Otherwise, get your shit together BEFORE you try to sell anything, you immature brat.

OoOh girl, don't even get me started. I have Bipolar Disorder with a side of Social Anxiety and Summer Seasonal Affective disorder.

There's this girl in my local comms I want to fucking punch in the cunt. She also has Bipolar, and her parents have power of attorney, buy her shit constantly, and she doesn't work because they got her disability and give her half of it to buy whatever she wants. She also blames her shitty behavior like cheating on her SO or promising to give people rides to meetups and forgetting, or borrowing people's shit for 3 years and not giving it back on her disorder.

You guys, she has myalgic encephalomyelitis.

My sister had it really badly, she died last year. She was confined to her bed most of the time. On a good day, she could maybe move around the house with help. On a bad day, she couldn't move at all and needed to be fed with a feeding tube.

If you don't know anything about ME, don't start kicking off about Peachie. It's an illness with varying degrees of severity and it takes over your whole life.

Obviously Peachie's case isn't super sever if she has to ability to dance, and skip in her gifs.

What part of varying degrees of severity don't you understand? There are people with ME who are capable of close to the same level of activity as people without the illness.

>>6821948

Just because she can film some dancing doesn't mean she doesn't struggle day to day. She's mostly house bound. I know that after she exerts herself, she really really pays for it with a lot of pain and inflammation etc.

ME can also be progressive. She might actually be gradually getting worse and more ill over time. She's probably at the kind of stage where she can walk a bit, but probably needs support after a short while and is only capable of maybe one big period of exertion a day, which she will then spend a day or two resting to recover from.

This website is really helpful for understanding ME.

Different anon, but loose ringlets using natural hair do exist. They're not all thick, dense sausage curls, and they're not that hard to accomplish, especially if you already have curly/wavy hair to begin with.

I HATE when 'plus size' (read: fat) girls complain about brands not catering to their size and demanding that they rectify this.

If it's so devastating to you that you can't fit into it why don't you just LOSE SOME WEIGHT damn.

On the other hand, I admire girls that are working hard to lose weight instead of just complaining about being big.

I meant old school ringlets, not some wavy loose kind. And no, you don't see girls with old school ringlets that isn't a wig, especially in lolita. If I saw a lolita with old school style ringlets, I would assume it was a wig and I would be correct.

Not in lolita. Show me a lolita with natural hair old school style ringlets. And not some old school street snaps, something recent. If I saw any lolita with ringlets, I would be right in assuming it to be a wig, because lolitas don't wear their natural hair in old school ringlets. They just don't.

And that one girl who wears those over the top historical outfits doesn't count. Those aren't old school style ringlets, those are historical hair styles.

I'm currently having the inverse of this.
I told a girl I can't ship the item for a good week or so because I'm just too busy, and that it's okay if she nolonger wants to buy the item, but she said it's okay if I ship it on the exact day I said I could.
And now I just feel really pressured, what if I mess up? Is she annoyed at having to wait this long even though I prewarned her?

Selling in general makes me so nervous. What if someone issues a chargeback and I can't do a thing?
