Feels thread

I give my friends (who are new to the fashion) ita advice, like telling them not to wear petticoats, so that I look better by comparison.

>>9571427
...I mean one quick google and they'll figure it out that you duped them...

I think I'm in love with someone, and I shouldn't be.
I don't even know them.
But I'll probably never see them again.

Doing cosplay at conventions is the only time I feel like myself, everything else is just a shadow of the world to support that. I'm unwell but at least I have something I live for I think.

How do you cope with the time between conventions besides diving into as much anime as possible and working on cosplay?

I just remembered why I resorted to only buying cosplays and not making them when Taobao became a thing

>Grandma was a seamstress, passed away before I gained an interest in it
>Taught my mom a ton of things though, so I have always been able to rely on her to help me understanding this and that about sewing
>One problem
>My mom is the sweetest lady but will always try to take over when I ask for help
>If I tell her that it's fine and I can do it myself and I just wanted her to tell me or show me something, she can get grumpy
>We've ended up in multiple screaming matches because she either didn't understand what I really wanted or she took over and I resorted to trying to assist her with MY project and accidentally fucked it up cause I have no idea what I'm doing because she always takes over instead of just telling me "do x and y".

I really love my mom and I wish sewing could be a way to bond but instead it just makes us scream at each other. I'm already permanently stressed and this just takes all of the fun out of it.

Trip to the glorious Nippon motherland looms closer.

Bust size has increased two inches over the past year, waist 3 inches, pain in the assignment for fitting into my blouses and skirts. Buy scales, realise I am a stone heavier than I thought. Cut out takeaway and walk more, skip dessert and eat more veggies.
3 weeks later, weigh myself again to see if I have made any progress. I'm now back to my goal weight but my bust and waist are no smaller?!
I'm going to try to lose another half a stone, and see what happens then... I can't go much lower than that without being underweight again...

>>9571440

It's okay, the only feels here is the feel that you are socially inept, I'm sorry for you.

What drives me nuts is we were discussing other costumes for her to make me and such. God forbid if I sent the jacket back I probably wouldn't have seen it again.

I think I may have a mild form of narcissistic personality disorder, and it's stressing me out big time. Everything makes sense now, but I feel like an awful person.

>>9571690
you sound like one of those edgy teens who say they're a sociopath and that they definitely know because an online personality test told them so

>>9571690
You are literally a normal woman just like the rest of us. Don't feel bad, it's what we all do.

I had a really strange dream last night that I was at a panel at a convention, and the presenter was an ita wearing a mint honeycake special set. (Unstyled and messy hair, no petti, no legwear)
She was doing stupid that could ruin the dress, and I yelled "BITCH WHAT ARE YOU DOING, THATS HONEYCAKE!"
Which made a couple of people in the crowd laugh.
But the girl just sunnily replied "its okay! Its just a replica!"
Which made several people boo her.
And then the dream changed.

I need to stop reading cgl before I go to sleep.

>>9571702
Or just, I donno, not be toxic.

>>9571427

Because in your dream you yelled at her during her own panel

>>9571435
I met this girl at a convention while I was drunk shortly after breaking up with my most recent ex.

We almost had a one night stand but our rooms both had people in them, so we exchanged contact info and that was it for the time being, we were both cosplaying from the same series.

It's been about 5 months since then, we follow each other on tumblr and talk sometimes, she reblogs tons of stuff I love and we're into a lot of the same shit and she's really cute.

But I barely know her and we live several states away from each other during the school year and I don't do long distance.

To call my feelings love would be a stretch, but in a romantic sort of notion of the word, yeah I fucking love her. Fuck this shit man.

Your dreams reveal truths about you through your subconscious. Think about it for a second. Your mind only knows what you know and it reaches conclusions that you don't realize yourself, when you sleep your mind takes all these assets from what it knows about everything including you and your actions. It then molds and shapes your dreams that you mostly just watch (unless you are able to lucid dream and control what happens).

So what you saw was your manifestation of an inner truth about yourself.

>>9571693
Wrong.

>>9571734
I am a very lucid dreamer, Ive been that way for years. It's to the point I can flat out control what's going on. (Though Ill wake up with a splitting headache if I do so.)
I also have dreams about things that I saw/did during the day.
Play a video game all day? Dream about that video game.
Be on /cgl/ reading about drama? Dream about drama related to /cgl/.
Also Freuds theory on dreams has been disproven- theres much more to dreams that just id vs super ego.

>>9571734
This is an incredibly outdated analysis.

neither are very social, but you also seem to have never gone to a con or meetup from here.
the meetups are usually 95% awkward guys who sit around, don't drink, and shitpost about traps and gay shit on their phones while they're at the meetup.
it's so bad that even though I'm considered an awkward ugly nerd I've been hit on at them by the 1-2 girls because I'm almost the only one looking people in the eyes, not wearing a dress, and not talking about literally sucking dick.
If someone like me stands out as "charismatic" and "hot" you know something is wrong

>>9571734
No, it isn't you in it's truest self or something. It's your subconscious, but not a literally true you or anything. It's just your head processing about stuff you think about. Your mind combines everything and does weird stuff with it to make it one story/image. The more diverse things your head has to process, the more weird dreams may get. But none of it is accurate to the real world or anything.

>>9571759

Keep living in denial, I don't care. Just know that you can never lie to yourself no matter how hard you try.

>>9571844
And you keep being an armchair psychologist on 4chan, using outdated Freudian theory.
That psych 101 class you took at community college proves how smart you are.

>>9571844
I guess you know more then modern science and the medical field. You remind me of those people who believe something because one study agrees, while hundreds don't agree and have shown it's wrong.

I think you need a break.

>>9571847
I've only replied three times to you.
Once when I asked how I was toxic.
Once when I explained that yes, I am lucid dreamer.
And once when I called you an armchair psych- which you are.
Freud is known within the modern psych field as an absolute quack.
But I'm done taking your bait, troll-sama.
I'm going to binge on skyrim today and when I dream about it- I'll think of you and how you'd tell me there's some deep personal meaning behind it.

>>9571847
>you made brah???????

With do you weebs go to cons and not talk to other shy weebs? It makes no sense at all. Like you all like the same stuff and you're all on the same social level.

>>9571847
>thinking you're arguing with one person and not several because you're literally spouting theories that are decades out of date

>>9571856
people at larger cons aren't weebs. Even the cosplayers walking around are usually just normal people or wannabe instagram models hoping people take their pics.

I've had too many awkward conversations where a cosplayer has never even seen the show.

There's also the recent "anti-creep" campaign that people have been doing at cons to try to push out "weird" people, which usually means well-meaning, but awkward weebs.

cons have been taken over by average, normal people. They're no longer about awkward weebs going to meet other people like them. They're about money, selling waifu merch, and having the most popular slutty waifu cosplay so people take pics with you and share and follow you on instagram.

>>9571713
honestly nothing serious. its for a card game he plays, but since he typically pays me back everytime I lend him money, I gave it to him. didn't predict this was going to happen, unfortunately.

>>9571829
meh
just hit on the most attractive person in the visible radius

what do you have to be embarrassed of, you are literally there in a clown costume anyway

>>9571853
I never claimed to be a psyche. What's with this deep meaning fluff? The way you act in your dream is how you would act normally, this is so that you don't notice you're dreaming and it helps keep you in a state of sleep. Your mind doesn't just randomly make stuff up. It pulls from factual information that you've seen or experienced.

Don't, it wouldn't work out.

That's it's proven to be wrong. And the person who came up with this has proven to be a scam. There is no deeper meaning in the way you say it. It's not "deeper meaning" stuff. It's plainly bullshit and you refuse to believe it. That's whats wrong. You're being just as dumb as people who claim vaccinations cause autism.

How do you decide if you want to date someone or just be friends with them? It is easier to stop talking to someone who is just a friend if they end up being trash, but it would be nice to not be single.

i literally just saw the other response and yea thats kinda odd??

>>9571888
i really don't know why he got mad at me. i tried talking to him but he won't budge and he keeps saying he doesn't want to talk to me. i'm not sure if he's stressed out by something else but if he is i wish he would just tell me instead of taking his anger on me.

he didn't take a lot of money. it was about $40 dollars and the payment was suppose to be $50, but i'm gonna have to wait until next month to get some more cash. luckily my birthday is next week so i'm hoping i can recover those $40 with some birthday cash and try and get my dream dress anyways even if he doesn't pay me back, but damn i would also like to work things out with my bf too. it isn't the first time this happens and he typically comes back but how do i know for sure that he will come back on future occasions? he really doesn't know how to handle stress well and it kinda hurts everytime he does this.

>>9571694
Haha, looking back it does look that way. If anything, I'm hoping I don't have any form of the disorder. Probably going to see a psychiatrist to see if I do or not, because whatever this is, it's ruining my life.
>>9571701
I wish I was, but I'm not so sure anymore. This stuff has gotten to the point where it's ruining relationships.

I'm tearing up cause my boyfriend started to say he doesn't like lolita anymore. I talk about it a lot, I know cause it's my favorite hobby and he's fed up. I don't know what to do. Shutting my mouth would feel like not being myself anymore and my bf still says that he likes me like I am.

>>9571993
That sounds stupid. Dumb him.

>>9571990
Were your parents overly strict or critical when you were young?
I'm similar with learning to lie, but it was because of my parent's rules: "Did you flick the lightswitch exactly 5 times before turning it on like I told you? YOU KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THAT IS!!!"
And I just learned to lie to avoid it. You might be similar?

>>9571993
Dump him and date me.

>>9571990
>ruining relationships
Like I said, it's normal.

If I had a dollar for every woman that said they were using their bf for stuff I'd be rich. Some of us try and resin that men are using us just the same. Deep down we are lying to ourselves a bit.

>>9571996
Were your parents ocd?

>>9571993
It sounds like he might be a little self-absorbed, since you probably let him talk about his interests all he wants. A lot of guys really devalue lolita as an interest, even if they're into something similar, because lolita is percieved as very feminine and feminine things are frequently considered valueless.
You should try telling him that lolita means a lot to you and that it hurts when he doesn't support your interests.

>>9572026
I can't say much because I bought from a "professional" cosplay reseller online that listed wigs based on character and everything
ended up with an ill-fitting outfit that the seams started popping off after a day or two, and a scratchy, super thin, wiry wig that looked like shit

turns out they literally just grabbed cheap shit off taobao, didn't modify it at all, and passed it onto me with a 200% markup

>>9572035
I still don't know anon. That was like 3 weeks ago that I popped the shoulders off my cosplay because chinese people have skinny shoulders. I'd imagine if you can find a facebook community for your area they have a list of people there who do commissions or you can make a post asking about it.

>>9571990
see, based on this post i can tell that you want something to be wrong with you. you wouldn't admit defeat if you were an actual narcissist. you're normal.

>>9572039
Why wouldn't I date a normie though?

Just because I wear lolita doesn't mean I have to date a weeb

>>9572039
Why is this so true?

Do lolitas just blend in better because we can take the petti off & change in to jeans?

I've been looking for a like minded bf for monthsss but I only seem to attract nonpassionate gamers who tolerate lolita.

Even cosplayers have a way better chance of dating another cosplayer or otaku.

>>9572060
Hence my point and my feels.

Its more cringey, and common, to have weeb males then females. And the females that are weeb are accepted by everyone as long as they follow the don't be fat rule. Attraction works different for each gender, and females have the least requirements (just be pretty and a straight males will get a hardon).

>>9572066
Your standards are probably out of wack and the things you look for are probably not common in weebs

>>9572071
>must be a weeb
>must be japanese
>must cosplay/goth/ouji/scene/emo
>must be at least 6'0
>must have at most 12% body fat and not skinny
>must be confident
>must not be socially awkward
>must be emotionally available but not clingy

>>9572080
this is probably a joke, but a lot of girls on here expect a lot from guys. You're probably not gonna find a guy in his early to mid 20s who makes 6 figures. Any guy who's buff and confident, and at least a 7-8/10 in looks is probably not going to care at all about weeb or lolita girls. Any guy who obsesses about anime or jfashion is probably gonna be awkward. Any japanese guy is probably gonna be skinny and a slightly awkward herbivore.
you can reach for the stars all you want, but sometimes the shit you want just isn't there

>>9572066
I've always been curious about that. Lolita seems like such a weeab magnet (which it is) but most girls who wear lolita are pretty normal, like you said a lot of us can wear lolita but then just change into jeans and a tshirt. Maybe a lot of lolitas just don't hold it closely to their identity like weeabs hold anime?

>>9572094

I accidentally wrecked my bf's car in the Barns and Nobel parking lot. He called me an ita and spanked me.

>>9572016
Tfw you have compulsive behaviours. This kinda depresses and motivates to try not to bothers others with it.

>>9571993
>>9572043
Indeed. Even if it's not his thing, if you really like it that's one thing. Like, I understand not wanting to hear about it continuously, but he should be able to be happy for you when you get something new, you shouldn't shut up entirely. But if he dislikes it, you should respect that too. My BF thinks it looks nice enough, but it's overpriced to him and he dislikes it if I talk about it all the time. So I just talk with people in my com, or on places like Rufflechat and here. When I have something really special, he shows interest just because I like it so such and he loves seeing me happy. Same for his interest that don't do anything for me. Even when lolita is important, it shouldn't be the only thing in your life after all. Share the most special, so he can enjoy you being really happy and get motivation to listen out of that without hearing so much he gets fed up about it, and take the rest of the talk to someone else.

>>9572066
Probably because a lot of lolita see nothing special in weeb stuff? I don't see anime any different than a western played series. I watched a few, but I don't see it as super special or anything. I'm not into manga at all. I'm a software engineer, and the most interesting about Japan are Android robotics to me (I'm actually studying in hope to program their artificial intelligence, which would probably make me move to Japan so I'm following their culture and such at the moment), but other than their electronics, no huge fan op Japanese stuff next to my dresses (although I find some cultural stuff like how they always innovate and are working on being most efficient interesting). I'm a huge fan of black metal and go to underground events for that, and I love older RPG games, and am somewhat active in the TES modding community. Generally, most IT nerds find I'm more nerdy than them, in the stereotype nerd way, not the "cool nerd/geek guy" way.

I think many lolitas aren't dating weebs because they aren't weebs themselves and don't share interests.

By it's original definition, weeb/otaku isn't positive, going way to far into a fandom, like an obsession. Otherwise, it's not a weeb/otaku to me. It's a fan of anime/manga/cosplay/whatever. It's still used like that in Japan. Calling yourself a weeb is defiantly a thing too, because apparently you don't realise it's a negative word (and generally, people that don't realise it don't do so because they are acting like Japan is heaven, and actually don't know shit about it).

Most weeb lolita's don't understand lolita and wear cheap, horrible dresses. Can't find find it back, but there was this music group that was "inspired by Japanese music" and based on the concept of two butlers and one girl who was dressed in a horrible ita dress which nicely showed why "weeb lolita", which are generally put under "cosplay lolita". There where photo's in the ita thread some threads back.

It get's more easy when you grow up an realise it's not love. True love doesn't come with someone else every two weeks. Sounds like teenager behaviour to me. But of course, like all this teenager behaviour caused by hormonal changes, "no one will understand you" when they tell you this. Once you're done with puberty, it should go away. Just need to grow up, and try not to do stupid things you regret.

If you're an adult, get a psychiatrist. It's not normal after puberty. In that case, it would actually be a sign of mental issues.

>>9572120
I'll give you a pity follow if you post your twitter. Who knows, it might be upgraded to a real follow if I actually like what you post.

does it really matter that much?
I have literally 0 followers on all my social media accounts but I don't really care
Maybe being a guy gives you thicker skin and prepares you better for no one caring, because no one really does

>>9572153
I used to be like this, falling in love with everyone around me and moving on from one to the next when I realised I didn't have a chance with them. Even continued while I was in a relationship. Then I met my current boyfriend and it all stopped, it's very calm in my head now and I have 0 interest in anyone but him.

>one girl keeps hitting on me, but I back out

I fucked up didn't I? I guess I could have lost my virginity to a drunk cosplay slut, but I focused more on friends.
Kind of bit me in the ass, since none of them have talked to me since

Well, I have no girlfriend. Woe is me.

Then again, live as a straight crossdresser is hard.
Why it's /cgl/ related? Because we're sex driven maniacs performing the weird mating dance of cosplay in order to get puss/dick.

>>9572250
Because people blame their weebness for is instead of their personal problems, and want weeb boyfriends...

I have so much more fun wearing Lolita alone than I do at meets. At meets I just cannot get over the feeling of everyone comparing/competing with their outfits and it's so overwhelming to me since every meet I go to seems to have slightly different attendance too.

This happened about 5 years ago:
>in brainless arts class in university
>friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend-of-a-cosplay-friend's cosplay friend is in class too
>for this post we'll call her bitchface for short
>group project time

>group is: bitchface, me, some other people vaguely know
>bitchface wants to be group leader
>no, see this guy he's got industry experience and is a grad student----
>bitchface WANTS to be GROUP LEADER NOW
>okay whatever, awkwardness all around
>bitchface has idiot idea for project
>doesn't even meet assignment criteria
>insists on it
>is finally convinced bad idea
>bitchface: okay, lol, it's fine
>days pass
>suddenly shit hits fan
>bitchface went to prof, claimed "harassment" because she's a girl
>bitchface claims she has "japanese ancestry" so harassment is obviously racially based
>prof buys it
>half of group kicked out of class because "harassment"
>one girl kicked out has scholarship
>no one knew she was having trouble
>she looses scholarship because dropped class
>without scholarship can't afford STEM
>has to drop out entirely
>tries to contact bitchface to show her what happened
>bitchface reports her to admin for "racial harassment"
>bitchface gets asspats from admin, has it so hard

Fast forward to now:
>watching local shit news show
>holy wtf bitchface is on it getting interviewed
>is fat now lol
>married son of local slimy used car dealer
>is on news complaining that kids throwing eggs at house
>egging is obviously racially based because "japanese ancestry"
>every house on block hit by eggs
>but no, was OBVIOUSLY targeting ONLY HER because RACIAL CRIME
It sucks what she did to the one girl, but she sure didn't get far for someone who was so determined to be a leader and compete to get ahead of everyone. She's still living in Shitsville in Buttfucknowhere married to some asshole con-artist. She hasn't matured much though. I guess some people grow older but they don't grow up.

This is how everyone deserves to feel before a con.

Coming from someone that's been on up to 80mg of Prozac (plus a cocktail of other drugs) a day and three doctors a week, you need to be in therapy. I've been there. I'm a cosplayer too, it's been the only thing keeping me afloat at times. Get some help. You'll thank yourself down the road.

hi im looking for more lolita friends so we can be friends if you'd like!

Lately I've felt like a worthless piece of shit all the time, I don't go out except for work so I haven't been wearing Lolita lately which makes me sad, I invested tons of time and money into kicking off my modeling career so I could eventually become a model for either ap or btssb, then I realized that I'm too tall to qualify for either and I hate myself for it, I just wanna lay in bed and cry because I waisted so much on a thing that i have no chance of doing, I'm so insecure about how tall I am, art hasn't been making me happy lately either because I've tried so hard to get people to pay for commissions (for incredibly low prices like 5-10usd) but I guess I have a shitty art style cause no one will buy, my boyfriend has been pissed at me lately because I've been moody (moodiness caused by depression) idk someone help

I'm in a relationship with a guy. We love to hang out and enjoy being otakus. He's has bought me a dress here and there. We've been together for ~2 years.

We never have sex and it doesn't affect our relationship one bit. We're both digusted by having sex. There are any other couples who are a lolita not have sex?

Even if the girl was hot, that would mean she wouldn't even be in that relationship since she has so many guys left and right she doesn't need money and would look for a companion.

Is it even worth confronting him over? I just wish he wouldn't make up shit to avoid hanging out with me. I'm not very clingy, and if he told me "I just feel like playing games today, sorry. We can hang out tomorrow" I'd have been completely okay with it.

PC. I doubt he'd have left it running. Though he has ADHD and admitted that he's very easily distracted, he plays that particular game a *lot*, even when he's hanging out with me.
I guess I'll just wait until the next time he talks to me. If he doesn't mention leaving his computer on all day even once, I could probably assume he lied.

Depends who you associate yourself with. I follow several people who have conversations with me daily. The whole insta story is a good way of breaking the ice with someone who seems cool, like if they post about some anime you like you can message them and say that you like that show too or some shit.

Of course there are some jerks, but that's how it is everywhere in the world. I feel like for cosplay, insta is really where it's at right now.

That....isn't an emotionally healthy relationship. It really sounds like he's using you. It's easier to say from the outside, but I think you might want to seriously consider leaving. Also "borrowing" money for cards is literally the stupidest thing I have heard: it isn't like he couldn't buy cards at literally any other point in time. He needs to find his own hobbies. Freeloader.
>>9572069
I mean, girls will all swoon over a passingly handsome man. Have you seen the thirst male oujis get? A lot of (weeb) guys just don't appreciate how much effort/grooming it takes to look decent.
That and a lot of weeb stuff directed towards guys is creepily sexual. It's like fujoshits; the difference being fujoshits date each other.

Actual feels I've been trying to save money because idk if my job will still be here in a month but things have been so stressful that yesterday I dropped a. Inch of money on retail therapy and now I feel kinda bad.
Like I have the money to buy things, I just feel super adverse to spending money

I spent 2k on my current yugioh deck, it is some serious shit.

>>9572924
Uh hello? I think it's a bit of a stretch to say she's being used considering the information OP gave. She normally trusts him and $40 is by no means a justifiable sum of money to fake a relationship/ditch your long term gf for. Not necessarily a thriving and healthy relationship, but many people in relationships tend to act on emotions without thinking about it. Just a shitty situation.

But do dump him if he keeps acting like an asshole.

I wanted to try cosplaying, but then I remembered I'm short, brown, and a boy so I pretty much don't fit any character.

I learned about mori kei on here and it looked so comfy so I wanted to try switching up my wardrobe. But I don't think it would look good on me, so I spent my money on steam sales instead.

Everyday, I hope that my car will suddenly explode while I'm driving.

Fair enough; I might be a bit overzealous, but also periodically getting mad and storming off leaving the other person confused and paranoid it's their fault only to keep coming back and acting as though things are normal (not that the last part has happened this time) is emotionally manipulative behavior
It isn't so much about the money as it is his shitty behavior. Hence my concern

No.

My personality is rooted deep within me.
I think they call it asbergers?
People are never good enough for me. As soon as I spot something in another person that I don't like, I try to change that person to my liking, mostly with passive aggresive remarks.

It's a horrible personality treat. And I can't change it.
And don't get me going when I meet people who cosplay characters they don't know...

>birthday anon who's hours got cut and had to use birthday taobao dress money savings for rent from two threads ago

Sort of a feels and/or help question:
Does anyone know any way besides camming or sexytime stuff that I can make some money online to supplement my income? My hours got cut at work, but I live in a place with no public transport and share a car, so I wouldn't be able to get a second job IRL. No one ended up helping me get the dresses I was looking at, and I don't want to take advantage of anyone or be accused of that. I don't mind working for the extra money. I can do pixel art and animations pretty well, as well as draw, metalwork, teach beginners how to sew, etc.
I just really need a win right now, since my grandpa (who was like my dad, especially since I'm an only grandchild), passed away on Friday right before my bday (thankfully, I'd had an amazing last day with him--not knowing he was going to pass though he had been growing weaker for the last few years--we had played board games all day and watched baseball and relaxed peacefully and chatted--I'm devastated, but will be able to find peace knowing how peaceful and happy he was when he passed in his sleep.). It's why I didn't keep talking to everyone after my first two replies--I had gone over to visit and wanted to hang out with my grandparents and give them my full attention that day.

Even if you don't know of a place to make extra money, a virtual hug or something or pic of something cute would help. I'm barely holding it together right now, and I'm about to have to go teach children for 8 hours. My bday was yesterday and things kind of suck right now.

Buckle on my shoe broke, I'd only worn them out like 5 times. The actual buckle part just broke off as one whole circle. Sigh, that's what I get for buying Taobao (they were generic old school chunky platforms). Gonna see if I can fix it with some metal glue or something.

You should probably check out r/beermoney but a lot of that can be scams, so take caution.

Here's everything I've done/do to make cash online

>write
Write a blog, write articles for a website about something you know well, write copy, transcribe, translate. Lots of options out there, look for freelance websites.

>art
Pixel arts are good, drawing is too. If you're good you can make BANK off adoptables, but either way art and commissions online can bring in a fair amount of money.

>user testing
Usability testing

>mturk
I didn't enjoy this very much so I didn't make that much money. Go figure

>tutoring
Teach English to foreigners, or teach whatever you want. I know you already teach but tutoring adults could be a nice change of pace.

>investing
If it sounds risky as fuck, that's because it is, but there are lots of volatile markets that will either snag you a quick buck or lose you a quick buck

Not sure about it's origin here, but I guess they mean those thongs Yakuza wear on Irezumi photo's? Nothing makes me feel less threatened than literally see them in thongs XD. Anyways, serious question if those are the ones meant.

>>9572602
Tall is not a problem. I've seen people from 1,80m in photoshoots, which look kinda weird next to people like Misako. Your own behaviour does tho, not thinking and then crying about it isn't going to get you any wear. Accept your loss and do something useful, instead of crying you have failed, and then realise you haven't done anything but cry which is useless, and then cry even more because of your time waisted crying...

>>9572661
Lenses look good on light eyes, rarely on dark eyes. If yo have lighter eyes, you don't need to worry as the colour will always come out fine. You can literally go by the stock images for how they look. other review parts should still be useful no matter the eye colour.

i think i'm picky, or i'm just looking in the wrong places, but i always see all these posts and threads about their local comms and how everyone knows everyone in FB groups and such, but all my con FB groups (some official, some not) are always cringey and you can't even sort through the "I'm cosplaying this!!! Expect pictures!!!" threads and it's a shitty Sonic OC.

how do i make local friends /cgl/, i hide my power level too much to join a club at my community college, and it seems pointless when i'm trying to transfer to a Uni soon.

i have plenty of normie friends, only a few of my childhood friends know i'm a weeb and they make jokes but they love me for who i am and it's great. but, i still don't have anyone to genuinely share my interests with and someone who understands the jokes and shit i make

>>9573208
Maybe you misunderstood
I did a couple cosplay with her and people thought we weren't a couple
I wasn't in the pics because people had me take them

Do you know how shitty and embarrassing it is to work on something, have someone else take credit, and then be handed a phone to take pics of the person claiming credit for your work?
Apparently not a lot of people do, because she just doesn't get it either

>>9573052
Thanks anon! Sorry for the blog post before, I just need a distraction right now, and working towards a new dress would definitely help. I'm going to definitely look into some of these--they all are great ideas!

>>9573211
If she really claimed to make everything then yeah man of course I get it, but it just sounded like you more upset that her sewing skills sucked than you did that she took credit. because your post is mainly complaining that her cosplay looked better than the one she made you and it made you embarrassed

You just sounded more upset she looked better and tacked on the "claimed everything was by her" at the end.

id break up with her just for claiming the props you made her were hers.

Its not a sin, if you really dont like it then start investing in OTK's and tights. No reason to cry good lord.

>>9573226
It's not extremely short if it's just showing your knees, you're fine. But if you're uncomfortable with that length it's not a total loss, note how long this dress is before you sell it off and next time you buy something make sure it's longer.

>>9571993
>>9572029
Solution: date each other.

My feels are that lately I feel like shit if I see my friends go out with each other (and no invite for me) or literally making plans in the same chat and still not throwing an invite my way. I certainly don't want to be the "TFTI" person so I don't say anything. I've invited people out to dinner/lunch/hangout at their leisure (I work from home so they have more restrictive schedules) and they're always really enthusiastic about "sure I'll let you know!" But I never get a follow up.

No one's obligated to invite me to anything and I did my best to pretend not to see all the "out here with the squad" posts on FB and IG. I logged out of FB a while ago and I no longer post on IG in an effort to see less of that.

Maybe I just need new friends.

On a side note I can feel the moodiness and depression eating away at my will to do things. Don't know if my pet passing away and my last living grandparent (who I was pretty close to) passing away last month adds to it. I don't feel the need to be mourning and grieving all the time but half the time I do contemplate wanting to die.

I have an unending, unyielding crush on someone. The thought of her from day to day gives me life and energy. She's gorgeous, beauitful, exceptionally talented, passionate, and I feel like we get along well.

The only thing is, i'm in a relationship with someone who has cheated on me multiple times. If I abandon her, she financially depends on me, and moved from seveal states away to be with me. I will destroy her life.

I'm only so cool of a person. Thi s is one of those ultra-rare times when I click with someone. I don' t know if they feel the same about me.

I could just settle down and be with the person I am right now and that would be that.

But *she* is all I think about. I don't think she really is interested. We talked once for many hours, and it made me *sooooo* happy.

But I don't want to push my luck again. I tried talking a little bit today and it didn't seem to go anywhere. That means I get to back off forever it seems and quietly admire her.

I'm trying to get stronger, challenging myself to make more money and get fitter. Even worse though, she's close with someone who i'd consider a really cool person and wouldn't want to cause drama.

I want it so bad. I do...

K, I hope that somewhere you're out there and you understand.

>>9573317
Break up with that bitch. Who cares if she's financially dependent on you.

>>9573220
wouldn't you be mad too if you spent your time making something look good and the other person made you something awful and low effort?
I wouldn't have been as mad if she did the sewing for both parts like I did the props for both, but she clearly knew she was awful, since she didn't even attempt to make her parts herself. She just spent extra to have hers look way better than mine to the point where people didn't even know we were together, they thought I was some random cosplayer from the same series that was hanging around her.

I happen to have gotten out of a situation identical to your own minus the feelings for some other person. Listen, you are a good person for staying. I understand entirely that things are complicated when a break-up would lead to the other person being homeless. However, you have to end it. They will continue to hurt you. When it is all over, you realize they don't love you, they only love the life you give them. Their life won't be over. In fact, you'd be surprised. 6 months down the road you'll see them treating someone else the exact same way, mooching off whatever life gives them. There's honestly people out there who will take advantage until you cut them off, and they'll throw their responsibility in your face.

You can cut things off, and have the lady take her clothes and such with her so she's not stopping by everyday. I personally held on to my ex-partner's stuff for almost a year while they found a place to situate themselves. It's hard, but I got them out of there. Their life wasn't ruined. They were just upset until they found someone else to mooch from. You gotta' cut the ties man. You are being used for your apartment. Have they already been guilt tripping you?
