SHE IS A COMPLETE FUCKING WEEB. She's loud, obnoxious, obsessed with yaoi, tits, and pretends she's a hardcore gamer, when the only game she plays is minecraft on creative, where she runs around punching trees and building square houses. One of us mentions a game, anime, ANYTHING, and she immediately spazzes out like she's the world's biggest fan.

She's also a vegan. She won't put her food in the same fridge, because there's meat in there, so TWO minifridges had to be bought instead of sharing one. She WILL use the same microwave. All of my wat.

She sets her alarm for 7 AM. SHe has no classes till 10. The alarm then goes off, waking everyone BUT her, until she finally drags her ass out of bed at 9.

She stays up until 2 AM loudly video chatting with her boyfriend. She will not turn off the lights OR shut up OR leave the room no matter what.

Oh my god, I'm going to kill her.

Not quite true. I used to live on a farm with many feral cats. It takes literally most of their lives in order to calm down (the last living cat from the 20+ feral cats I had is now 17) and she only started getting tame about five or six years ago? And by started, I mean it would be she would actually come inside once a week.

It's definitely not an overnight fix, but it's possible to domesticate a feral cat. This girl is just stupid, though.

[Anonymous No.7082461]

>>7082455
Feral cats are already domesticated. A domestic animal is an animal that has been changed on a genetic level from selective breeding by humans over many generations. They're simply not tame due to not having proper socialization with humans.

This is true, though, feral cats can become tame with patience, though most will always remain a little neurotic. You have to tailor your approach to the individual cat, too. Some need a lot of attention, some need to be ignored. One feral is a lot to handle, nevermind a whole room full.

I have pretty bad cfs to the point where I can't do very much by myself, and so I get ESA money from the government seen as though I can't work. My family is pretty poor, the only reason we can afford to stay in this house is thanks to my dad extending child support until I'm 21, and using my ESA to pay for groceries and towards rent.
My mother lets me know this constantly. She is always worrying about money saying "I don't know what we're going to do...".
Then she also turns around and tells me how she wants me to get better so I can go back to school (which I had to drop out of due to not being well enough to go). If I got better I would lose the benefits and we wouldn't be ableto afford to live here. And so I can't. She tells me not to worry about the money, to try an expensive treatment program that isn't guarenteed to work. But I can't.
I'm also pretty underweight and I don't really like eating food, but I try my best to eat as much as I feel possible everyday. I eat until I feel sick everytime. And everytime my mother will look and say something like "what's wrong with that food", "you've hardly eaten anything, just eat a bit more". And I know she's just worried about me, but I can't physically eat any more.
This morning she came in to check in on me and said "Are you going to try to eat more today?". I already do that everday. I try my best. So what that felt like was "Your best isn't good enough. It's so bad I can't even tell you're trying."
I hate how skinny I am. I hate how you can see my spine and my ribs. I hate how pointy I am. All I want to do is put on weight. The fact that she thinks I don't care and am not trying really hurts.

Phew. Sorry it wasn't cosplay related, but I really needed to vent that. I don't have anyone to talk to about this stuff.

Do you get Incapacity Benefit? If you go back to school and lose your ESA you may be able to claim income support or DLA. I'm not 100% on this because I don't know if CFS qualifies as a disability, but there are ways for you to do it and there's help out there, especially if you initially left education due to ill health. It may seem hopeless, but don't give up on your education, or your treatment.

It's good you see you're mother's just worried about you. Maybe you could talk to her and explain how you're trying and her comments aren't helping you? Putting on weight is hard at the best of times, and nobody can ask you to do any more than try.

As for SAO, I completely fucking agree. Game 2 was the most trite shit, with the exception of a few action scenes like Kirito dual wielding again.

Long vent ahead, been holding this in for like 3 weeks now.

You ruined the convention, you ruined the visit between my family member and I. I hope you're proud of yourself but you're so thick skulled you'll never even realize all the bullshit you caused.

You were a total and complete selfish stupid bitch at the convention. I knew to expect some jealousy out of you, you were in an ebay bought costume and I had been working on my somewhat complex cosplay for the last six months, busting my ass and slaving away on it.

I did not expect you to throw a shitfit at the convention because I dared get more attention than you, because people liked the thing I spent so much time and energy and money on, because I was (unwanted) hit on by a couple guys and you were not.

I thought you were my friend, I thought you would be happy for me as this is a hobby I've been super excited to be a part of and have really worked hard to improve in. This was your FIRST CONVENTION and your FIRST COSPLAY what the fuck di dyou expect?!! That everyone would lose their shit over your generic, poorly fitted cosplay?

Bitch I was up at 6am helping you get ready, doing all your makeup for you, cutting and styling your wig, making sure you had all your stuff and doing some last minute costume fixes all before even thinking of getting me ready.

'Why won't anyone take MY picture' is all I heard from you for 10 fucking hours. No thank yous for helping you, you didn't even TRY to have fun. It was all about the pictures for you, not the convention or the other cosplayers, the events..nothing.
Oh and it's really cunty of you to openly badmouth other people's costumes to the point where they can hear you.
Not even 48 hours in and you and I are screaming at each other.

Thanks for ruining my convention, the ONE convention I go to a year, thanks for shitting on my cosplay, thanks for making my life hell while you were there and thanks for showing me how unbelievably selfish you are.

All I wanted was to make some local friends in this hobby and it seems that's too much to ask for in this community.

I can't help that I got better than the three of you. You have to understand I spend a lot of time and money on this. I'm also older than the three of you and only work full time, I have a lot of free time to work on cosplay an dimprove.

What you guys arn't seeing are all the fuck ups..sometimes MASSIVE ones before anything decent comes out.

Why do you hate me for this? All you guys do is often slap on a wig or buy something from ebay or get your dads to make your props for you. There's nothing wrong with that but if you want to get better you'll have to put the work in.

I know one of you is trying really really hard to get cosplay famous and network themselves with terrible photos of mediocre cosplay with little to no effort put in, I guess THAT'S why you hate me so much in particular.

I know you guys talk about me behind my back and I know you guys bitch about how snobby I am. Why is it snobby to post stuff on my own personal Facebook? Yes I got in a couple magazines and youtube videos and websites but if you'd actually think you'd see that none of those were even a big deal. It's my own damn facebook an di'm proud and want to show my family what i'm doing with this hobby.

Also, you can argue it all you want, but walking up to me in a convention when I'm in the middle of having my photo taken by a photographer and telling me how innaccurate one of my props are is rude. Period.

I hope you girls grow up and try to have some fun in this hobby. I can't imagine that spending your time sulking and complaining about why you're not the next jnig is particularly enjoyable.

I know she has to help pay rent and her family is going through a lot right now but I feel like she should be able to help at least a bit? I know her and her boyfriend get fast food basically every other day and I feel like she should be able to save enough to at least pay for half.

I think the worst is that I wasn't sure if I could afford this costume so I asked her if she could pay for $40 of it and I'd be able to pay her back after selling it but she still said she wouldn't dip into her savings.

You're not nearly as talented as people think you are. You're a hack. You're a whore. You got where you are by whoring yourself and this whole hobby. You always got a lot of help on your costumes and you refuse to take any criticism because that would burst your egoistic little bubble. Inside you're still a frail, spoiled little kid with a weak self-esteem and I wish more people saw through your charade. I don't have the heart to come out and tell everything about you publicly because you're not really a bad person and I don't want to ruin your life, but you're extremely, ridiculously selfish. Everything you do has a narcissistic agenda behind it. You shamelessly use other people for your own benefit. And you know that all of this is true. But instead of facing your flaws, you wipe it off as jealousy.

And that's why I can't respect you. I just can't. You're ready to kick your friends out of your life like yesterday's garbage because they're not as successful as you are. You're a double-faced, ungrateful little piece of crap. I hope you're proud of yourself. Because none of your old friends are.

She also hates the word "exotic" because it's offensive to her "people". She claims to be part Egyptian and even uses a fake Egyptian name on Facebook and social sites.

It's always, "Someone get me out of here before I do something awful," "No one cares about me," "I can't fit burando; guess I'm too fat to be a lolita."
Like goddamn girl, if you're only surrounding yourself with negativity, no wonder you're so miserable.

What a twat, you should drop her.
I had a friend like that in middle school, couldn't really put words to my frustration at the time but now I realize what a whiny little beotch she was. We were best friends but if I came to her with a problem, any fucking problem at all, she would go out of her way to one-up me.
Like fuck bitch, just wanted someone to listen, not have competition to see who has a harder life.

You should try to slowly get them into it.
Don't know if this is typical but most of my normalfag friends are really interested in cosplay, they just need someone to give them a little push.
It's my personal opinion that everyone has something they nerd out hardcore for, you just have to find that one thing and start dropping hints about dressing up.

Alright, the photographer is a hypocritical douche who marks people he doesn't like out of spite as creepers and harassment. He is too well connected to the anime club scene where I live to the very friends I have so I can't do anything to get even without being literally blacklisted by the anime community. Worse yet, when he was banned from a con due to a dispute between his group of maids with another group. Instead of completely boycotting the con, he decides to hang around outside the con to take photos of cosplayers who are posing outside of the con, meanwhile, he decided to ban me from his gatherings because I was posing like a douche with his girls.

I don't even know what the fuck I did. I sorta wonder if I just remind her of her weeaboo phase. But if she's just going to keep being a bitch about it, then no, I don't want to talk to her either.

I had this exact thing, except I never knew if she was straight or not.
I confessed my love for her, it turned out fine, we've been dating for 17 months or so and I'm flying over to hers for my birthday.

Go for it, anon! Worst case scenario, she turns you down, then you can move on.

Your story, honestly, sounds really bad. It's red flags all over the place for abandonment issues and a negative relationship. Please, PLEASE see a therapist if you can. It is likely to give you the same amount or much more effectiveness than those "organic happy pills" will. (On that note, what are you taking? I'm pretty critical of anything that claims to have no side effects being effective - side effects are the result, frequently, of the introduction of new chemicals, so if they aren't introducing anything powerful into your system I'm critical of how they could be effective. Even most herbal supplements have at least slight side effects.)

A therapist won't be able to do much for me. I know what's wrong with me, am aware of my manic depression, anxiety and abandonment issues. There isn't much sense in it when I know what my problem is, all I need is really just a good friend who I can talk to comfortably about anything and everything. Thought I had that, but turned out I was wrong.
The pills are more like capsules, extracts of St. John's wort. All I get is nausea, but then, I haven't been hungry or eaten in about 2 weeks now so that's most likely why.

Different anon here. GO TO A FUCKING THERAPIST, DON'T DUMP YOUR PROBLEMS ON A FRIEND. That's what a therapist is FOR. Psychiatrists/psychologists are for when you don't know!

>>7089338
>ruined wig
See if anyone in your area can lend one, or see if there's a wig shop near you/with fast shipping.
>ruined armsocks
...Try dying a pair of gloves, or ask someone else if they could help?
>can't get makeup to sit right on face
Moisturise, then use a makeup sponge to do a thin layer on top of that. If the thin layer isn't enough colour, do another layer, but make sure you don't put too much in one spot and keep it even!
>dress isn't ready yet
Work on it every day! You can do it!
>still have to help g--
She can do it herself, just do your best to get yours done and worry about hers when yours is nearly complete!
>con is 26 days away

The worst part of it is that the girl in question takes every opportunity to make a show of avoiding my "triggers" - she turns bags of crisps away from me so i can't see the contents, and so on - but is always gibbering about calories and carbs and fats and sugar and aspartame and E-numbers and shit.

I don't mean a friend I can dump my shit on, just someone I can talk to and have fun with who is able to take my mind off of things. Most friends I used to have would -only- talk to me if I needed cheering up which in turn made me feel like a shitty friend. I was actually able to be genuinely happy around this person and forget this stuff.
Last many times I went to a therapist, I had to drag my mom with me because I was terrified of going alone. And I just ended up not going altogether because it was ruining my week whenever I had an appointment. It's not an option if I want my life to function properly.

Sorry anons, it's not that I don't want to take advice, it's more that I've tried getting that sort of help before and it did not work for me.

[Anonymous No.7089773]

Not anon you were replyng to but for some people it doesn't matter whether they have an audience of 1 or 100 to tell about their progress. They don't really "get" when or why people do not want to hear their story. All they can do is talk about their weight loss even if they know there are people in the room fighting their own battles. Honestly, that would be a good use for a personal blog. People can read it if they want but you're not saying it in person to someone who's recovering from an eating disorder.

Some people are also so desperate for some attention that they'll say or do anything, no matter how stupid. Back in HS, there was one girl who was probably 5'5" pushing 200lbs who always announced her weight loss progress, in the most retarded terms, in front of a mutual friend who was struggling to gain weight (no eating disorder, just crazy fast metabolism).

>Hay gaise! I can cinch my belt in 2 more belt holes! Lost more weight!
>Talk about calorie counting and based her daily caloric intake on what she did that day. e.g. went for a casual 2 mile walk? Ate the same # of calories that Olympic gymnasts do. They work out and so did she that day.
>Days she didn't "work out" she'd eat under 1000 calories. "Gaise, I only ate 764 calories today but feel fine! Teehee!"
>At a restaurant after the movies, "Hay gaise, I'm vegan now. Dare me to eat one of Anon's chicken tenders?" *grabs and eats* "Don't worry gaise, I did some crunches today! I lost an inch, this won't count!"
>Talk constantly about her mom who was a nutritionist at the time and how they were devising a super awesome plan to lose weight through "clean eating", organics, etc.
