Girls getting pantsed

I think it's a series of two movies. It features an ancient evil demon thingy (I don't know if it was a demon) it's leathery with wings and looks like a hag (an old decrepit woman).
I saw it as a kid so I don't think it has gore in it, I just remember it was on a DVD, super obscure early 2000's.
I remember a beautiful young girl (I was like 9, she was about 19 at the time of filming, so don't judge me) is being chased by the 'demon', the girl is quiet, almost mute. The girl's father was a professor turned archeologist or something, who uncovered this evil, spoiler the father dies. I just remember there being lightning CGI effects whenever the monster was being summoned or shown on screen. Also, I think the girl gets rescued in the second part by a group of college kids who take care of her.
Like a really obscure old DVD release horror movie(s) for kids, like "Are you afraid of the dark?" type of stuff.

There was a young girl named Alice. She loved paranormal stories. She loved to read about ghosts and listen to other people’s hauntings. Alice desired, more than anything, to become another ghost story. Every time, when she went to bed, she faced the bedroom window. Every time she faced that window, she felt something was watching her even though nothing was there. This feeling of being watched only ever excited Alice.
As time went on, her bedroom window grew only annoyed her. The bedroom only ever showed the woods that connected to her backyard. She so desperately wanted something, anything in her window. A creature, a ghost, a face, or anything would have done the trick. Alice was tired of seeing nothing. She was going to get her ghost story one way or another.
One night, Alice snuck out of her bed and the house. She quietly walked over her bedroom window and looked out into the woods. There she saw something, someone. A man in a white rabbit mask with a camera around his neck and a knife in his pocket. He was hidden just out of view of her bedroom. In the end, she got her ghost story. Supposedly, Alice haunts the woods to this very day.

As an ugly-looking girl, I tend to get overly attached to anyone who shows me a little attention. I remember this one guy in high school I crushed on so hard, it was embarrassing how much I talked about him to my friends. I started liking him the moment I saw him, and to this day, I still don’t know why. It was the first time I had such strong feelings for someone.
This goes back to late 2019/2020, about a guy I shared some classes with. At the beginning of the school year, we exchanged a few glances, but I didn’t think much of it because people just look at each other. I never intended to make a move because, knowing how I look, it seemed impossible. But as time passed, my feelings grew stronger, and I couldn't hold it in anymore. Before we went on break, I hit the request button on his Instagram, and he quickly accepted and followed me back. I thought it might be a sign he was interested, but I quickly snapped back to reality and didn’t think much of it. We never talked until lockdown happened, and we all went online. I once posted an Instagram story about one of my interests, and he surprisingly replied. I was so excited. We started replying to each other’s stories, especially after he began posting about the same interests, which made it easy to continue without seeming like an obsessed freak. This went on for about 2-3 months until we had to go back to school.
The first time I saw him again, my heart raced. We exchanged glances but didn’t really talk. We only had small conversations during PE when he would ask me something, and I remember stuttering so badly. After that, not much happened just a few gestures, but my friends noticed him staring at me a lot and I thought she was just joking till my other friend noticed it as well. Never really thought much of it because you know people just stare sometimes. We continued replying to each other’s stories once in a while, but his replies became slower, and he stopped posting as much. That’s when I realized he wasn’t really interested and we were just talking for the sake of it and probably out of his boredom. I felt terrible about the whole situation, even though my crush on him kept growing.
After graduation, I didn’t see him until last year at the train station during exam season. I was shocked when I encountered him. He looked at me up and down and quickly got on the train, seeming uneasy. I think he tried avoiding me, but I can’t really complain because I did the same. I sat like three wagons away because I was too nervous lol. A few months before this, I remember I accidentally screenshotted his Snapchat profile because my phone was glitching, and he noticed. He texted me if I did, It was such an awkward interaction, but I wished him a happy birthday at the end of the convo. After a few hours, he sent me snap but I didn’t reply because I wasn’t sure if it was meant for me.
Right now here I am here, almost two years later, and I still like him. Just a little bit of attention has left me with this endless crush, knowing I’ll never be with him and knowing he never liked me. Sometimes I wonder how different things could have been if I were prettier. He probably wouldn’t have felt embarrassed talking to me lol and would’ve probably tried something. Idk why I still cling into him, just imagining him being with someone else hurts while he just goes on with his life not caring about any of this. He probably forgot about my whole existence lol.

I moved countries, got a post grad degree with disntinction, found a partner (not Asian which they were perfectl’y ok with, overjoyed even because colonialism) got married, got a job, then got another job and then another one after that. I make more than what 50% of people make at my age anywhere in the world. I work hard and I have job offers from large corporations as I’m looking to move again. And my Indian parents still don’t think I do “A good job”. They call my WFH day my day off. They think I just fuck around all day. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the words “well done” fall out of my mother’s lips. When I tell them I’m looking for XYZ role at a higher position they always say “Why would they hire you for that?” Because I FUCKING DESERVE IT!
All my life I have been trained for one thing and one thing alone, professional success. Since I was a little girl of 4, my parents have conditioned me to believe that my life would fall apart if I don’t get successful independently.
“If you don’t study hard and get good marks, you will be very poor and you won’t ever be able to buy anything or go on nice holidays. And then you’ll have to become a rickshaw driver” my mother used to chant at me as she dressed me for school as a kid. I was 4 and I still remember this. She did this everyday till I was 10.
And that’s whatever, built character, taught me that being my own person means being dedicated to work and that’s ok, because they didn’t have any other expectations from me. They didn’t care if I ever married, I’m not their retirement plan, I don’t support them financially nor will I ever have to. I’m not expected to reproduce, like nothing. I haven’t ever done a single household chore (because that was time spent AWAY from books and studying). I just have to build my own wealth because they are leaving everything to their name to charities (which is totally their choice as it’s their money and I genuinely support them in this endeavour).
But sometimes or even just once it would be nice to hear them say “Well done Princess. We’re so very proud of you” not “You aren’t ready for that position at that company” or “They are the owners, they decide this”.
Just once if my mum said “Good job beta” it would just be so nice or if my dad even said “Very Nice!” Which he literally says about everything.
Does anyone else feel this way?

Didn't think I would be on reddit but looking for i guess public random help? If I ATA then I will accept it.
I am having issues with my girlfriend and was hoping within the next 10 days to pop the question, and as shitty as it is, she is bringing up and point of view in our relationship I do not agree with in any capacity.
We have known eachother 9 years, Started dating almost 3 years ago. I had strong reservations about this relationship even beginning because I had gotten out of something bad a year prior and she had gotten out fo a 5 year relationship before getting with me.
This is a rare and only time where the girl was asking me out and I was saying no. I had started to learn about boundaries and mental health and it felt like at that moment I could not handle any form of a relationship. She forgets to tell anyone in this story how the longest she has been in single is 6 months and basically hopped from relationship to relationship.
I had told her she needs to spend a year or more figuring out what she wants in life for herself and who she is outside of a relationship because it sounded like a person with no path or direction.
I will admit I was weak and definitely like her, come to find out we liked eachother when we first met it was just bad timing. The only reason I asked her out is because all my friends said we looked and seemed perfect together and they hadn't seen me that happy in a long time.
So far we have had it good, and of coure some fights, but if I am being fair her last few relationships have been very abusive and non loving and the abuse goes all the way back to her family as well. So after my many failings I learned how to, not lash out or scream or make instant judgements or start a argument with texts, I have learned a lot from my own short comings and it feels she is where I was years ago. When we fight 80% of her arguments come from a topic that isn't even the issue and that fights feel like , I made her hurt or upset so she is gonna hurt me the same if not worse...
An issue I was warned about when I started dating, was after I inherited some money. I had been told by most of my family that dating financially below me could be tough because they might always see the comparison. And in a couple relationships it has been thrown in my face. Its not great, but it was given to me and I know that isn't fair. I would say I spend most of my money on my friends or significant other well being, not to buy them, but gift giving is a strong love language and I guess I always felt guilty I did nothing to have this money.
The recent conversation has been about her making more money versus me. I stopped working about 6 years ago to try and get into home investments and real estate stuff, I got tired of not being promoted when I showed up early, stayed late kind of crap then being asked to do 100 tasks not in my job description, but the actual on paper description of the person who got promoted over me and was not doing. I don't mind working hard or even for free, but if on paper I meet qualifications and the person promoted doesn't, then I have a problem.
This is her first consistent job that pays okay and has benefits. She job hops year after year and when looking for jobs they want some form of loyalty more than 1 year and she keeps wanting to go back to a bar job downtown that when she first had it was making bank, like 1800.00 every weekend only two days of work, but then when every bar opened up downtown post covid her weekend pay was now like 1200, then 1000, then 900. Not to mention tons of shootings and scary phone calls I would get at 3 AM. So we made a deal if for the next three months the paycheck wouldn't increase beyond 1000 she would quit and not go back... So I have supported her through multiple jobs and quittings and her trying to start her own baking business that she tanked because anytime I set a price for her baked goods, she would give a massive discount and not breakeven... I have even done 24hr straight baking sessions to get massive orders to clients in which killed our oven that I had to fix. I just wish she'd stay somehwere for a while and build a resume that works. I know our whole country is fucked financially and the average survival salary of our state is 100k,.. I already cover everything and pay for everything else...
I have been doing the real estate investing on mostly my own, and obviously it is not going well, trying to be ethical and moral and in the housing market seems like an oxymoron. I still have more money than she brings in and I am working on my real estate license, but I bought the house, take care of her, our dogs, mow the lawn, help out with her family of 9, fix our appliances, take care of her indoor plants, gave her a garden for outside that I also maintain, cook dinner or buy dates most of the time, pay for trips, her dogs surgeries etc, She is saying I need to make even more money so she can take it easy and stop working as much... But she has complained multiple times about wanting to help out around the house mroe and with payments... Idk how she can help if she is gonna take an inconsistent paycheck, and have no benefits of any kind and drive farther...
Am I slacking as her man and better half or is she not stepping up to the plate and doing her share?

I'm so sorry but I'm tired of people pretending Cassie is a good person because she really wasn't and in my opinion she was worse than Tony
this is in no way me trying to say that tony wasn't a bad person cuz he was but he was less of a bad person
also btw im not saying that she had a eating dissorder for attention or that her eating dissorder was fake. eating dissorders are very hard and its sad what she was going through but there are some things that have to be said about it
tony was a bad guy but he had his moments and avengely became a better person, he learn from his mistakes and bettered himself but sadly i cant say the same about cassie
when we first meet her in episode one she seems like this funny and nice girl with some problems. she was brought to a party to fuck sid so he would lose his virginity .this is kind of sad. even before we meet her there is said she had problems with eating which is later at the party further shown when she immediately went to the kitchen to sored every this to look at.
even in the first episode the drama starts, when on the trampoline with Sid she tells him that if he wants to fuck her he has to do it fast because she just took a lot of pills.she passes out and they have to steal a car to drive her to a hospital for to then when they get there her to be totally fine.
In episode 2 we find out what her living situation is, which is not ideal. Her parents are dismissive and only think about sex, but compared to the rest, she has one of the best home situations of the group. (this btw isnt her falt but i just wanted to point that out)
she asked sid out which he was clearly not into but he said yes. cassie reminds him of their date but sid tells her that he can't go because he is grounded, but that wasn't good anof for her she tells him the "iconic" line "i didn't eat for 3 days so i could be lovely" that is guilt tripping at its finest. its not her fault she has an eating disorder but using it to make people feel bad for you is just crazy. she asks him if she can come over any ways and he says it isn't a good idea but she comes over any way. to find that sid wasn't there. when he returns home she asks him where he was and he tells her he was with michelle (which was the stupidest thing he could of said at that moment and wasn't even the reason why he snuck out. she gets mad at him and slaps him (with in her defends it was a shitty thing of him to do). the next day she overhears sid calling michelle to make up, she gets up sad and tries to kill herself by overdosing but fails and ends up in a mental hospital. people gave sid the faule which is just not fair. in the Effy episode cassie and sid meet up at the cafe where they share a cute moment and kiss but than he gets a call from michelle because she is worried about tony and thinks he might need help he tells her he really needs to leave and cassie gets upset THIS is there lasts iteraction befor they move(accept for them meeting up on the park bench)....THIS was her reason to leave.....tony did need help and i was glad he did come. this was also the moment where tony realised that mabey somethings he does arent smart.
and dont get me started on season 2 her she was so mean to jal and why????.she was the reason why chris lost his house. she was also weirdly obsessed with chris even tho he had a girlfriend.she was so jealous of michelle and hated michelle even after sid and michelle broke up. when chris was in the hospital they told the doctors that she was his girlfriend. she was so rude about jal not telling chris that she's pregnant....like thats not any of your fucking business. jal is pregnant she decides when she tells him not cassie. then when cas and jal are in the hospital jal asks her what happened and she just ignores her. she finally tells jal that he took some pills but refuses to tell her what kind cuz "i dont tell him your secrets do i" like this isn't about secrets anymore hes fucking dying. she was the only one to be there when chris died and tried to call the hospital but when her phone didn't work she grabbed her stuff and left.not telling jal and not telling sid. just left. when her and sid where broken up she was sleeping with everyone she could find. overall she was a bad person. she had her redemption in season 7 but it was also minimal and soooo boring.
meanwhile after what happened with Effy, tony found out he was being a bad person and tried to change (but he got hit by a bus instead). ofc when he was recovering he mixed some things up like the thing with abigail but that wasnt his fault he just didnt remember eider abi or chelle so when abi told him "im your girlfriend" he ofc believed it. at the end he made up with every one and got back together with michelle. him and sid talked it out and the thing with maxxie was forgotten by him so never spoken about again.he did bad things but he always redeemed himself. the same can't be said about cassie. overal cassie was worse than tony , they were both manipulators but tony got a second chanse and took it and bettered himself. when cassie got that same chans she just looked at it and trew it in the trash
im fine with people who don't like tony i get it but what i don't like is that they than love cassie. she is so much worse and absolute the worst character of gen 1. but tell me your opinian

Hi all,
Historically I've been VERY fair, with good matches from Rose Inc LX010, or Salt New York N13. However, in the last year or so my face specifically has gotten a little darker and I find if I try to match it to my neck, it just winds up looking a weird way I don't like. I'm finding my face looks much more natural if I use a darker shade and then blend it gradually into a lighter one that matches my neck.
The problem though is I've been having a HECK of a time finding something that's the right depth because I'm so used to everything being too dark for me that my eye/intuition always errs on the side of lighter! But I recently picked up Salt New York's new concealer in my OG shade (N13) and also N12, just for fun. Turns out N12 is a pretty excellent match for my face right now, and I've been using it as my foundation as I like the coverage level a bit more than the Sneaky Balm. However, I don't always want to use an oil-based balm product which can feel a bit heavy especially in summer, even though my skin is dry right now.
SO! For anyone who also matches SNY N12, what else works well for you as a base product (preferably without mixing)? Primarily looking for foundation but I often use concealer as foundation so either is fine honestly. For reference, I've also been getting pretty good matches from Nyx Bare With Me Serum Concealer in Light mixed with LA Girl's green concealer, and Tarte Shape Tape in 12S has also been not bad although it's a bit too thick/matte for me right now since I'm on Accutane. Nars Light Reflecting in Gobi is either a hair too dark or much too saturated or both, I'm not totally sure.
Ay suggestions much appreciated! Thanks!

I’m fucking insane. I’m fucking done but I’m not done. I’m ugh. I’m so fucking tired. I’m tired of this. I’m tired of hurting. Or not feeling anything. I’m tired of wanting him. I’m so fucking done.
I want him back but I don’t. Idk what I want. I feel nothing.
I feel like shit after talkng in a group chat with some women in my area. I feel like shit. I was a child. I was confusing. Im 20 and they told me I was a child. Augh. I feel like shit. I know they mean well but it hurts. I fucking hate myself. I hate myself for wanting men. I hate myself for wanting bumble bro. I want him back but I don’t. I’m dying. I’m so fucking done.
I wanna fucking kill myself so that no one ever has to see or hear me talk about him. I hate myself. I hate myself so much. I wanna be dead so people never have to hear about him again. I wanna be dead so I can stop wanting him when I’m about to start to my period.
Idk what I feel or want. Idk. I feel nothing. I’m so fucking numb. I don’t even want to die. But like I want to be gone. I want to disappear.
Augh I fucking hate that I want him. I want to stop wanting him and it keeps coming back to me. I want it to stop. I want it to end. I’m so fucking done. I’m so fucking tired of this.
I fucking hate myself I can’t even feel anything. I want to die so that no one has to ever hear about him. I feel like shit after talking to all those women. I’m so fucking done. I know they care. But I fucking jaye it. I hate life. I just want someone. I want a friend. I want a boyfriend I want intimacy. I want feelings. I should have enevwr trusted thay Facebook website. It felt like everyone was upset at me and I know I was shitty but I didn’t even realize I was being shitty.
I’m so fucking done. I wanna be dead. Think. He’ll never have to hear about me again. Along with discord boy. Along with 8th grade boy. Along with everyone whoever hates me or dislikes me. I don’t want to do anything this summer. I just want to recover from one of the worst years ever. But I can’t. My parents will get pissed if I don’t get a job. I just want to stop existing. I need a break from social media I think. From Facebook at least cause those girls kinda made me feel shitty. Not because they’re mean. Not cause they had had it ent. It’s just cause I’m a fucking mess and no one should have to deal with me. I left once cause I kept talking about bumble bro. Augh. WHY DID I UAHE TO BE SO STUPID. WHY DID I JAVW TO WANT HIM. WHY CANT I NUST GET OVER HIM. STOP RHINKING ABOUT HIM. IM SO FUCKING DONE WITH IT. I JATE MYSELF. I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT MYSELD. WHY AM I SO UNLOVABLE. WHY AM I SO EASY TO USE AND ABUSE. why did I have to be so stupid.
I can’t even think. I can’t think of anything. It hurts so much I’m numb. I need help. I want to give up but I can’t. I can’t give up. I want to give up. I wanna kill myself so everyone knows how fucning fone I am and how they’ll never hav to deal with me again. They have to be tired of me. They have to hate me. I hate myself.
I want him back or something. Idk angmore. I just want to be dead. I want to not exist. I want to stop thinking about him. I want to be done. And done. So no one has to deal with me. Ans I hope that none of these girls see this cause I don’t want them to feel bad. They’re real. They’re honest. I’m senstive. God I need help. I wish it were over. I wish I were dead. I can’t feel anything. I need help. I just want to feel something. I feel horrible. But I feel. Nothing at all. I’m so fucking stupid and sad. I want to be dead.

I’m a guy in my mid 20s, travelling overseas to a couple countries in south east Asia (gonna be humid) with a group of friends (2 other guys, and 2 girls). We’re all pretty close and open.
Some accommodations we’re sharing hotel rooms based on gender (not sure if we’ll need to share beds — might need to if the rooms are double bed + single bed), some accommodations were all in the same room or in rooms of the same apartment.
I normally sleep in just boxers (shirtless). Is this still appropriate to sleep in for these situations? Do I need to get fully dressed as soon as I get out of bed in the morning?
Keen to hear experiences from people who’ve travelled with friends and shared rooms with friends before.

First of all, I am a pansexual cisgender woman. I know this looks like I have the upper hand, but trust me, I don’t.
I dated this person a couple months ago and some things felt off; however, she always played the victim card, the heartbroken, the innocent trans woman who only needed a chance in love. And me, as the underdog advocate that I am, fell for that.
I’m conscious that being a trans person is by itself already a difficult process and that you have to put up with a lot of shit that society gives you. But it’s precisely the respect that I have for your journey that motivates me to do this.
While I was dating her, sometimes she let a sexist joke or two slide. You know, like, “I wanted to be a woman, but now I don’t know if I want to be a 30-year-old woman.“ “I didn’t want to be a girl when I was a kid because while I was playing videogames, my sisters were helping out my mom in the kitchen.”
You know, sexist jokes.
But one day, we were going to order food and she said, “Why would I drink pineapple juice? Are you going to swallow my cum or what?”
And that immediately rang the alarm. She said I didn’t have a sense of humor. She said it was my fault because I took things too personal and if I was queer-er, I would actually just laugh and let it go.
We didn’t last long. She still couldn’t get over her ex (allegedly). She spoke about other women she has dated and it was super off for me. Sex was completely one-sided. She was extremely codependent. She spoke mean things about me with her friends while we were still dating!
I tried to break up with her multiple times. She even threatened me to unalive herself. She shared she had done it in the past and she said that she would do it again if I left her.
It was the worst! I was miserable.
Once we broke up, the real horror began. She started to use me for reassurance in a very twisted way. She moved on immediately with a former ex (she only ever has exes in her radar), and she started to be all like,
“Oh, please, when you go out with new people try not to talk a lot about me. Like, I know you’re still into me, but--”
“I know I was the love of your life.”
“I know you so damn well. I know you are not as happy as you were with me with this new person that you’re dating.”
Etc., etc., etc.
All of this, she told me while being involved with someone else, the ex that she hoovered back in when we broke up.
Next thing I know, something fun happened. I met a person who accused her—before her transition, when she was a man—of abuse.
It’s really weird because they two have friends in common and after she made the accusation, no one believe her. They chose to believe him. So he was a victim. He chose to start his transition not shortly after.
I have been having these ideas in my head trying to make sense of all of it. I know for a fact that she is emotionally violent. I know for a fact that she is a compulsive liar. I know for a fact that even though she is a woman, she has kept the worse aspects of being a man within her personality.
There’s also this thing—she is not friends with straight nor gay men anymore. She has one bisexual friend who identifies as a man and that’s it. And she envies him thoroughly. But she is not friends with men, really.
All of her friends are female and either dated her as a man or now as a woman. She always stays friends with the exes. Good friends. She still talks to them. Mostly, about her new conquest. All she has to tell is about her relationships.
When we broke up, she pretended to do the same. She wanted to stay friends and she started to sell this story where I was the confused ✨cisgender woman✨ since she is now dating a non-binary person.
She almost had a panic attack when I blocked out of my Instagram. She wanted to still see my Stories, see my content. Not because she wanted to keep me in her life but rather as a way of control. That way, she is in control of the narrative. And she was making sure that we are friends, so I wouldn’t expose her?
I am also kind of a closeted writer and while we were dating, I would tell her that I will write a book about our romance. When we were dating, this excited her. Yet, when we broke up, she bluffed, “Oh, I know that writing a book about me is the only natural thing to do after being with me,” but then she warned me, “But you cannot write a book about a villain who is a trans because people will use this as fuel to keep on hating the community.” How would she know she would be the villain?
I think this person is evil. And I want to understand why. I want to out her—not much for me but for the 23-year-old she is dating now. And I want none of this to hace a negative effect on the trans community because she is just 1 fucking person out of millions.
Any input could be of use! Thank you so much.

This is a follow up to this post https://www.reddit.com/GayBroTeens/comments/1akyx0l/came_out_to_my_school_in_a_muslim_country_today/
Turns out, my class ain't exactly as accepting as I thought they were. They're currently now avoiding me like the plague. I feel like people now only care about who I wanna fuck as though it's the only side of me that exist.
I'm happy that I can be out to someone but now i'm just a one dimensional gay guy who creeps around. I've tried to talk to people but they seem to think that just talking to me would get me interested in them. Any time I think some guy would actually be (at the very least) treating me nicely, it turns out they have some kind of weird innate distrust of anything I do. I could literally walk around a room and they will speculate on my next 'target' when I was just going to the toilet.
I was once a pretty shy kid, never talking if I didn't have to. I'm semi out of my shell rn but I still don't really know how to interact with people. Anytime I wanna talk to people, it just becomes awkward. I just really want a friend but people seems to think that I just want a "friend" with the word "boy" preceding it.
Even when I get to talk to girls, they'll think of me as their mandatory "gay best friend". I constantly hear other people talk shit about me as though i'm just an imaginary rainbow powered robot that walks and talks, not like an actual human being.
Perhaps I pretended to hit on someone because people thought it was funny. I just wanted people to be happy and laugh. I don't want them to be sad or bored but perhaps I misplayed a move. I'm sorry if I played too far into the stereotype of the heart shaped pupil gay guy. It's my fault for being too short-sighted to see what kind of trouble my actions would bring.
Is it bad that I regret my actions and want to change it? Is it too late now and I should bear any bad repercussions that comes my way? Is it bad I want to change course because i'm afraid of the consequences?

I really hope this new girl he is suppose to meet tomorrow is watching tonight so she can see just what kind of “prize” she gets to meet!!!!

So today 5/18 I decide to take my dog downtown to go walk around and possibly get a bite to eat. I look up restaurants and see there's one that has an outdoor patio area. When I arrive the place is packed and apparently local rescues had a pub crawl going on.
One of the rescues advocates for pit bulls. I am looking for a table to sit and order food with my dog (not a pitbull) when one of the pit bull rescue girls asks to pet my dog. I reply yes that she is super friendly with anyone. I turn around and she then taps me on the shoulder and says "Have you been walking around?" I say yes. She then responds, "There's another rescue dog here but it is dog selective." I just replied "Oh okay." But in my head I wanted to yell, "Then why the fuck did you bring it to a place where there might be other dogs?"
These people are just ridiculous. If the dog is "dog selective" don't put other dogs at risk just to find out which dog it will tolerate.

So basically, I (20M) met this girl (19F) at our church in college about 2 months ago. We became friends pretty instantly, especially getting to know each other on a trip much of the church went on for spring break right afterwards. It's a pretty tight-knit community so we've naturally seen/talked to each other quite a bit since then, however for the past month/month and a half we've definitely grown extra close. Basically we'll dm on insta bantering about random stuff, seem to always end up next to each otherunning into each other, and haven't actually deliberately hung out but have spent time one on one a couple times after running into each other while studying. She did want to go to an orchestra concert just with me (we both love classical music), though was unable because of school. We definitely flirt in the way of touching, teasing, and an occasional hint/innuendo, and while I think she likes me, it's not a 100% sure thing as again our community is pretty close/interactive, and she is quite affectionate and chipper with a lot of people. There have been a couple though that notice we seem to like each other.
Now, obviously I should make a move and ask her out. However that didn't become obvious to me until those times we studied, and by then, it was about to be finals week and I really needed to not be distracted -- had a very important and difficult grade to get to declare a major (I did :)). She moved out for the summer before my finals were over, so didn't get a chance to ask with us both there (lowkey wish I found that out directly through asking her, but I did through her ig story instead). Now, she only lives 45 minutes away from me by car. However I'm a bit of a doofus and still don't have my driver's license (my hometown is very walkable). I really would like to go pick her up and take her out, but while I really want to get the license anyway, I definitely need at least a few more weeks of practice to pass the test. So, I feel kind of in limbo, as I'm embarrassed about telling her that (she doesn't know) and asking her to come down here for a first date. Just feels unattractive/slightly emasculating for me tbh. However I feel like I can't wait too much longer without risking getting friendzoned... I felt a bit of a boiling point of tension and worry it'll simmer down. Plus, I'm not sure about her summer schedule as she travels a lot. Should I come clean about this to her, ask if she wants to come to me, or wait to get the license and just not talk to her too much in the meantime, or any other option? I can't really tell what she'd think of any of these scenarios. Again I really want to get this license ASAP anyway, but tbh I still suck :(

Hi ladies on rails! I can't help but notice that there are a great deal more guys than ladies in the rails development world. Or maybe even development in general. I sometimes wonder if this is because it's intimidating to get into something so male dominated.
Surfing is another very male dominated activity. I have surfed for many years and it wasn't until I found a really good group of girls to surf with that I felt more confident in the water. Thanks to a non profit organization called Bitches and Barrels, I was able to find the community of girls that helped me gain more confidence.
So I had the idea, that maybe I could run a code camp for women. We would learn how to build a rails app from scratch together. Is there any interest for something like that out there?
Would love to get your thoughts!

Backstory: A few months ago I decided to ask a tarot reader a free yes/no question. I asked if this girl would continue to talk to my boyfriend. I was really anxious in the moment and the girl said yes. I then asked the same question again only to hear that him and the girl would end up dating in the future.
Now this situation has really messed me up. I can’t stop thinking about this situation. Ever since, I have not really felt or been the same and I’m not sure what it is but I assume it’s because of that. I’ve been told multiple times that it won’t happen and that was just my fears playing in the cards and I thought that for a while and I was okay but for the past two weeks the feeling has came back and I don’t know how to get rid of it or how to feel better like I did before. I know it’s not true bc they don’t even talk anymore and I was just insecure but now I seriously need help bc every time I feel that feeling it makes me want to cry. The feeling is like something is wrong but I don’t know what. I’ve been told to journal, distract myself, practice self love + care but I’m scared nothing is gonna work. Now I’m not sure if I’m overthinking it and making it worse or what. I only believed it at first bc most of the readings I get are 70% accurate

My dad doesn't just beat me for no reason but I feel like when he does it's not necessary. Like he beat me for wasting trash out the trash can on accident in 8th grade. He beat me for not taking a shower early in elementary. and it's not just spankings he hits me with a leather belt in the same spot. He beat my sister for accidently buying a movie when she was in elementary. He would slap my brother. He says the only reason he doesn't slap me is because I'm a girl. But lately he says he will and I'm to big to get beat. He threatens to slap me when I try to talk or defend myself. He's fist fought my sister twice but it's because she said really messed up stuff to him. He makes me buy my own phone but buys my sister a phone even though her phone is fine. I got mine stolen after I got maced and he makes me buy it. I tracked my stolen phone but now he took it even though I paid for it. He wakes me and my siblings up and makes up clean the whole kitchen if we miss one spot on one dish. He makes me cook for him. He always yells and he calls me dumb because sometimes I don't catch on. Or because I'm forgetful. He got mad at me for choosing to go live with my mom. He got mad at me for drinking night quill when I had a cold he says I'm acting like a junkie like my mom. He yelled at me Infront of the whole class even though my teacher lied. His voice scared me. Every since I was little his voice scared me. When he calls my name I get scared then I go to him and he says something simple. He choked my dog because I corrected him when he was wrong. He smiled and apologized the next morning. He yells at me about touching my siblings things but I let them hold my stuff and they broke it but he didn't yell at them. Im not even scared of him anymore or at least I don't think I am Im just annoyed by him. But when I think about it I'm scared to tell him what want. I was scared for the past four years to tell him I wanted to live with my mom. He bought me a puppy just to make me give it away a few days later. He yells at me cause I called my sister a retard but they get to call me the b word and other stuff. Sorry if retard offense anyone at this point I'm desensitized. My dad talks bad about women. He talks badly about periods then ask e why I don't want to talk to him about it. He would get mad at me and then call me bipolar when I'm upset. He says I'm dumb and weak for self harming. He would always yell for hours then repeat it over again. He always targeted me. But I'm the one who dident want to talk bad about him. I'm the one who told my sister's not to us him for money. I'm the one that cooked for him that cleaned the house alone. I'm the one that listen to him drunk cry. I always tried to forgive him and try to see him as a better person. He abused my mom that's why she doesn't even like him. But I'm the only one that lived with him for four years and he still treats me different. He treat me and my other sister different. He cares about my half sisters more than me. They talk bad about my mom make her seem like a deadbeat but my mom takes care f us or tried by herself for years and he always helped my half sisters mom. He chooses my half sisters over me and my other sister. He called my sister many names like slut whore and stuff like that. I'm 15 by the way and my sister is 16. My half sister is 15 and my other half sister is 15. If anything happens he blame me and my sister's. Like the light cut off when we was cooking he blammed us. How the frick is that our fault. I can't remember all the stuff he did but he would say or do stuff that just makes me mad. He forced my sister and I to learn the amendments in 5th grade. I forced myself to learn but I forgot them again so that was a waist. I got blammed for everything he always believe my younger sister over me. I've seen him drunk many times he almost shot my cousin in front of me. He was drunk and tried to makey sister get in the car with him. I asked him not to drink on my birthday he got mad. But he was nice at times. He took us out to eat he bought us clothes. But that's the bare minimum. To get us clothes and give us food. But he took us to six flags which was fun. He buys us stuff like computers and other stuff. I know all this sounds ungrateful and dramatic but he makes me so angry I want to hurt him or myself I've thought about it when I was younger but I don't anymore. But is he abusive or am I just dramatic? Sorry this honestly became a rant/vent but I don't like that men.

I hate her so much. I’m tired of her making me cry and making me feel like shit. I’m tired of her hissing like a dragon every time I do something wrong and slightly misstep, or just when I don’t do exactly what she wants. I’m tired of wanting fucked and literally never getting it, if I’m lucky it’s once a month but only on her terms. But then if I top it’s totally fine whenever. We’ve been dating for 3 years but I’m just now finding out that when I act like I want it to much it’s not attractive. I’m scared she’s gonna hit me again if I try to leave, I don’t want to though because I do love her but also I hate her so much and resent her at the same time. I don’t want to be alone I have no one else. I’m tired of cooking for her 24/7 because I used to be a chef and her never doing the dishes, I’m tired of her making my apartment dirty and cluttered and look like shit. She practically moved in here and I can only rarely get away from her. I’m tired of her gaslighting me and my emotions. I wish I could just be kidnapped and taken away from my shitty dead end life by a woman who loves me and wants to love me. I want to just be mommy’s girl. I’m tired of all this. I’m sorry for the rants and especially how it’s jumbled together and insane. I’m writing this while crying because she’s hungover and being rude lol. Thanks for listening to my awful Ted talk

My ex of nearly 1.5 years broke up with me about a month ago and I’m starting to feel slightly better but I still miss her and I’ve gotten painfully introspective as of late. I was never mean to her, and was in fact quite sweet, but I was often angry at the world and tried to get her on my side against it. I felt like her seeing the good in people (and she almost always did because she was a lovely person) was like her conspiring against me. I thought she was naive but really I was just bitter and cynical.
Couple that with my lack of motivation and being a bit of a prospect-less loser and it’s amazing that she stuck with me as long as she did and that she loved me and cared for me up until the end.
It’s hard to feel that you were abandoned for no reason but it’s almost harder to know that she left for a good reason. She wasn’t without flaws (she thought she could change me, despite denying that she was that kind of girl, and she was controlling as a result) but I was definitely the problem one in the relationship overall.
Weirdly I’ve come to like all the strangers I see on the street a little more after she left. I guess her good influence rubbed off on me after all, but it took her leaving to trigger it. Hopefully her discipline and work ethic will also turn out to be infectious so I can get my life in order.
We parted on great terms and she said I should text her in the fall to catch up. I’m terrified she’ll hate me with enough time to reflect, as the love wears off. I doubt that will happen but who knows? I’m wishing her all the best but I’m not really wishing myself the best, it’s hard to want good things to happen to me when I still feel like “the bad guy”. Anyone else relate? Maybe I’m being too hard on myself, I don’t know.

I made it to 20 weeks and we found out we were having a girl! So excited I couldn’t stop smiling on our way out of the ultra sound clinic. That’s the good news! The bad news is we hadn’t told my mom because she was dead serious when she told me not to get pregnant again, she doesn’t want another grandkid. We’ve been keeping it a secret this whole time. My husband decided we need to tell someone in my family because nobody knew. So we started telling my side. My grandmother who is a great grandma again, was very excited. My step-grandma was also very excited. As was my aunt and cousins. However my mom reacted just how I thought and is pissed. She no longer wants to babysit the other two children on Fridays while we both work, meaning we are in a bind. Have an altered schedule for the next two weeks but after that I have no idea. I also just miss being able to text her funny pictures of our youngest trying new foods or being crazy. I’ve been crying every night. I don’t know what to do but it’s made me feel like such a failure.
