A cosplayer I used to look up to turned out to be a complete nutcase. I mean I always figured there was something off about her but I never knew about the full extent of her crazyness. I mean full blown alcoholism, drugs, suicide attempts and false allegations of rape. Im glad I never got too close to her, I feel like I dodged a major bullet.
Its gonna be a little awkward seeing her at cons now that I know what I know though. Guess im just gonna pretend I dont have a clue.

I really really want to try going to a /cgl/ meetup at an upcoming con, but I know my ex attends them and he's the biggest drama queen I've ever met. He also spread weird rumors about me to people he knows in the local cosplay community.
He's kind of obviously a nutjob, so I kind of want to say "fuck it" and go and meat some seagulls, but I'm fairly confident that he'll try to create unnecessary drama. Wish I could just go to the meet without having to worry about his dumb ass

Have you spent over $1,000 this month on things while a co-woker has a breakdown because she can't afford medical care for her cat? It's hard to not feel like a piece of shit when that happened.

I hope she was able to set up a youcaring or something, poor kitty. I know it's easy for people to be like >>9390260 and shit on a person for not being sufficiently prepared for the most outlandish medical emergencies a pet may have at any moment, but the bottom line is that the pet doesn't deserve to die.

[Anonymous No.9390278]

>>9390271
From what I heard her credit is shit, doesn't have great finances, and she has a baby. So she's worried if she goes out of her way to pay for her cat's examination to see if the problem can even be fixed with surgery and then someone comes up with the baby she's super screwed. Other co-workers have talked about donating or helping raise money since we've got a lot of cat lovers in our office.
I understand that everyone has difference circumstances and I shouldn't feel bad that I'm in a good place financially. But, I'm over here spending a good portion of each paycheck on expensive Japanese plastic and other things most people would consider dumb.

Got a call for an interview for a second (technically third) job. It's to be an opener at Dunkin Donuts, which I've done before years ago, but absolutely hated it. I'm already missing out on hanging out with friends because of my evening/night jobs, and this is going to cut into seeing my boyfriend who works overnights and I really only can see him during the mornings. It's funny because I'm getting all these part-time jobs to pay for school and still have money for cosplay so I can be more social and happy, but it's cutting into my social life and making me miserable.

Her bringing randos to your room/her bawling that she couldn't find anyone to bring to her room is going to cause more drama than letting her know that everyone is uncomfortable with it. Honestly, if she's like this all the time and she freaks out about everyone being uncomfortable about that you might just wanna kick her out of your room.

I sometimes have flares of light nausea, but not super heavy. I don't eat much either in those periods. you could try ginger tea or camomille and try to eat anything light and fairly healthy(toast, maybe with a fruit spread), fruits like melon or maybe pear, a neutral flavour, low fat quark etc). avoid anything spicy, fat or sour.

Jesus, no. Gurl, get yourself a dildo or something. Don't bring that shit into normal conversation. I hate it when people don't have filters.

I know you don't want to bring drama, but when it comes to con, you NEED TO LAY DOWN THE RULES because if you don't, it will bring more drama.

Conventions are supposed to be fun and her bringing random people in a space with you and your friend's stuff is a huge risk.

What if shit gets stolen or broken? And wouldn't your room get crowded? What if someone needs to go back to change in and out of cosplay some point in the day, or to take a nap, or need to go to bed early because they want to be ready for the main day or a fashion show?

If she wants to have sex during the con weekend, they need to get their own room.

She sounds like she's never been to a con before because while hookups do happen, it's not like she's going to a nerd brothel. This is just an exaggeration, but 95% of the time, people are going to be out doing shit at the con to make time to get lewd.

Still during that whole conversation it could be brought up that she can go to the randos room rather than bring randos back to the room. Better for everyone and she doesnt have to stop being a whore but just not drag her whore toys into the room with other people.

[Anonymous No.9390677]

My boyfriend just broke up with me last night and I am just extremely frustrated and feel very lost. In the last 8 years, I've only been single for maybe a year and I really feel like I don't know who I am or what I want to do. It feels like school was never going to end but it's finally hitting me that I'm about to enter the last year of my degree and I have 0 ideas on what I want to do once I'm done. I feel like 75% of my identity has always been whatever boy I am with/hooking up with for the time being and I actually have no substance to myself.

To keep this cgl related, my previous boyfriend expressed his dislike of the fact that I was into lolita and anime and idols and the like so for the past 11 months I've been slowly selling off my entire collection of everything. I was also kind of losing passion for it all, but the fact that he wasn't a fan combined with I was starting to become a hoarder pushed me to get rid of everything. But now that he's not in my life, I truly don't know if I do or don't like it anymore. It was such a big part of my life for 8 years that I don't know what to do. Have any gulls gone through something similar? Any advice on how to self-reflect?

Taking a break from all this means you now have more time to expeirment things you like to do by yourself. Get some friends, go out with them, start a new course, retake your hobbies etc.

That does sound tough anon. Finding an extrovert gf that would help you be more social when you're socially anxious is difficult, if only because you'll have difficulty relating. And finding a socially anxious gf would be even more difficult because they wouldn't be willing to take the step forward and date.

You know, sometimes in situations like this, it takes a friend to help get you through your social anxiety. An "F".

But not just a friend. After all, "friends" can be tentative and might not be there for you. What you truly need is a best friend. A "bf".

There aren't simply bf buffets around everywhere. Surely some discovery must be done. And would this "bf" be interested in being your best friend forever (bff)? That makes the pickings even more difficult!

But surely it's not so difficult. You've seen other people do it, find their bfs that are also bffs. Maybe the answer is closer than you think. Could even be right before your eyes! Wouldn't that be interesting?

I have bipolar II and I'm currently in the severe depression stage. (Blue part of this pic which I actually like quite a bit)
The past few days have been extremely rough, and I have barely smiled or done much other than lay in bed.

I was watching a movie with my partner (we live together) and after the movie was over, I asked him if we could watch another movie because I was enjoying his company a lot. I guess there was a change in my voice, or the way I looked, but he exclaimed that "Happy Anon is back!" and he hugged me with everything he had. When we started another movie, he realized he had to do hw, so we had to stop. And I felt pretty bummed about it, I reverted back to what my default currently is right now. A little while later (when he saw me again) he started to cry because "Happy Anon is gone." and "You've been so sick the past few days and I wish I could do more to help."

I am honestly experiencing suicidal thoughts right now, I haven't told anyone yet. And last night made me feel it mores o. I hate making him cry, I feel like a piece of shit.

Coming from someone on the other side of this sort of relationship - not bipolar, but similar - let him cry. You're going to have to accept that even though your condition is kind of shitty and may mess with his emotions, if he's with you it's because you're worth it, and he wants to go through your emotions with you.

The only alternative is where he bottles it up and doesn't tell you how he makes you feel, so that you don't feel like your condition could ever hurt him, and that would be much, much harder on him.

If women just admitted they're whores I wouldn't have such a problem. They want to be whores and deny it at the same time though. They want to destroy all "gender roles" except the ones that benefit them, like the one where men will gladly date/marry a woman who makes no money, but women will never date/marry a guy who makes no money.

Really depends. Any woman that wants or plans to have kids has no reason to date someone that can't offer to support them. Someone who is highly self motivated also probably won't get along with a NEET. People who have lots of ambition for their career and for life in general typically look for someone who's the same. If you have a HIGH ENERGY personality imagine being with someone that's content sitting around posting on 4chan all day. Wouldn't work out. Besides relationships that have financial troubles are fucking awful and stressful to be in, why would anyone want that? Having the ability for both partners to financially support each other is desirable, because having financial stability is something desirable. NEET's typically aren't cheerful people who love their lives either, and there's also not a bunch of people that want to be emotionally intimate with someone suffering from crippling depression because that's also terrible to be in. It's not even about the money partners make, people just want to be with someone successful and happy with themselves that they can rely on. Even as a successful guy it's pretty difficult to be happy with a partner that has zero ambition. People just want to be able to get back what they put into a relationship, nobody wants a financial and emotional weight tied around their ankle.

You mean women, when men are successful in their lives they want an unemployed young girl, they don't want a career-woman. The more money you make as a woman the less attractive you are to successful men.

You're so fucking stupid you think your very female-specific worldview applies to men in general. You don't even have the slightest clue of how men generally think.

Incoming tl;dr rant

I would love to be a housewife-chan but I know a lot of men don’t want that or else can’t make enough to support two people. Especially when one of them has an interest in a luxury hobby.
I feel like my anxiety would lessen if I would be able to solely focus on housework. The job I have now generates a lot of stress for me which just feeds into my depression and inability to get anything done at home. Which just makes me hate myself more, because I feel so useless.
I also have the personality type where I strive to make people happy and do things for their approval. So staying at home and getting things done to my husband’s/wife’s specifications and getting praise from them when they see it is something I’d strive for. It’d give me a sense of calmness because I’m always worried that I’m not good enough. Getting that verbal praise is what I’d want.
On the other side, I’d want to know what I’m doing wrong so I’m not stressing out and questioning myself at every turn.
It’s hard to find someone who shares my nerdy interests on the level that I have and also takes care of their appearance. A lot of other nerds that are on the same level as I am tend to be the classically stereotypical nerds. I don’t think I fit the social or appearance aspect of that and it’s hard to find someone else who isn’t either.
None of the people I’ve dated can even hold down a basic job. I feel like I’ve always been the one who supports them emotionally with getting nothing back, And I don’t want that ever again.
I just want to have a relationship where I’m the one who is being taken care of for once. Even if it’s not 100% of the time.
I feel like the person that I’m waiting for is a fucking unicorn. Someone that fits the bill of what I’m looking for, that I want, and who wants me back. There’s been times that I’ve thought I found someone, but I don’t think I was ever on their radar.

You are not a successful man then, if you need your wife to be making money or else it feels like a "financial drag", you're not anywhere near being a "successful man".

Even if you were, you're just some extremely rare exception.

If a man is financially successful, why the fuck would he want a girlfriend/wife that is employed?

Females are actually this fucking stupid, they think a man wants his wife

- to occupy large amounts of her time with work
- act like a tired old extremely non-feminine bitch because she has a job
- spend time on work that could instead be spent on housework, child raising, or giving sexual pleasure, or just doing something feminine instead of acting like a worn-out bitch

You're so fucking stupid you can't even put yourself into the shoes of a successful man. Why would a man who already has all the money he needs want a fucking career-woman?

Are you that stupid? The more money you make the LESS attractive you are to successful men.

Your "educated" attitude (pretentious feminist indoctrinated mind) is not a positive to successful men, it is something they actually avoid.

Yes, why would a financially successful want an employed wife? She would drain large amounts of her time into work, which is time that could be spent on housework, cooking, shopping, child raising, and giving him sexual pleasure. Instead she would spend her day at work and then come home very bitchy, tired, and permanently non-feminine from working.

Successful men specifically DON'T WANT an "educated independent financially-successful woman".

If they ever find out, you could just say you were going with a niece/nephew or some young family member. It'd be hard for them to judge you if you say that you were bonding with a family member.

I'm curious, have you ever thrown around your authority in a convention?

>used to be like you
>has coworker at one job who actively cosplays and has been in competitions
>at other job can openly talk about cosplays and normie coworkers think it's the coolest shit ever

You'll find your people, don't worry. The only time cosplay ever comes up for me is if I'm requesting time off for a convention, and the only reason I know about my coworker is because we were talking about a show and she mentioned she was cosplaying from it soon. Then again, I'm pretty quiet at work so I'm not sure if that'll apply to you.

I've had a terrible and frustrating week so far where it seems everything that could go wrong has happened. At least a friend has offered to go out for tea in Lolita with me some time to make me feel better.

Whenever a friend offers this to me, it almost 100% of the time makes me feel better. Have fun at tea anon!
