2024.05.21 14:43 Voixmortelle Suggestions for how to make my girlfriend feel more like "one of the girls"

I'm a cis woman and my girlfriend is trans. She's 30 and her egg cracked around 26-27, but she hasn't done any of the medical transitioning she'd like to do because she's afraid. And for good reason, we live in the rural southeastern US where people aren't really accepting of trans folks much at all. She could lose her job and most of her family and friends if she fully came out and started transitioning, so she masks (mascs?) in public for the most part and only really presents femme around me and some of our friends.
Because she has such little time to be her real self, I like to try to make the most of it whenever she does. I like to plan little events and surprise her with them, just things that she missed out on by not being allowed to grow up as a girl. For example, me, her, and two of our closest girlfriends are doing a sleepover movie night in a couple of weeks and we're planning on doing all of the sleepover traditions. Cute pajamas, scary stories, painting each other's nails, eating a ton of junk food, all of that.
Since I grew up as a girl I don't really know what she might or might not feel like she missed. I don't really have a frame of reference, you know? And of course I could talk to her about it (and I have, don't worry), but I also like to surprise her so I was hoping for some advice from some other trans ladies.
My question is this: What "girly things" do you wish you could've done or been part of when you were younger? If you ARE younger, what things do you do or participate in that make you feel more like "one of the girls"? Preferably things I can somehow recreate for her, but even if not I'd like to hear y'all's stories.

2024.05.21 14:37 Routine_Mall_566 New player, what was yall's first experience in this game?

I just got the First game and DLC a few days ago and i absolutely love the game, trying to get secret endings rn.
But how were yalls first attempts? Who was your first romance? Did you look up a guide or was your first romance just your soulmate?
My first two runs (and rejections) were Polly and Miranda, i dont really see Polly as a romantic partner but ngl i do like some of her antics. I thought I'd like Miranda because she was Rich and Genocidal, but she was pretty Cute too. But my first Prom date, with no cheats, my 3rd run, was Vera. Honestly she was my 3rd choice mostly bcos she seemed like that type everyone wants, but when i actually went for her i liked her alot!
Like, ive played Vera so much rn, and i have yet to get rejected, most of my choices were my legit opinions. Honestly i think i just genuinely click with her. AND LIKE, KILLING OFF MY ECONOMIC ENEMIES WITH A SNIPER? ALL THESE SCAMS AND MONEY MAKING PLANS? That was such a turn on, but not in a weird way. I discovered i like every single thing about Vera. My first Male romance tho was Damian, and i absolutely adore and relate to this chaotic delinquent energy

2024.05.21 14:11 Similar_Outside3570 Human maid café- 2

Chapter 2
Memory transcription subject: Krik Krak
Date standardized human time april 4, 2160
And so with those words, I awaited the reaction of my public which from what I studied from human body language it wasn't that positive,and when I mean study human body language I mean spending many nights with my holopad watching videos about humans.
It ranged from passiveness exhibited by Luna, the leader of the group and the one Slickel told me to talk about technical details, to straight out uncomfortableness shown by the smallest specimen.
“So, I’m here to help you develop your business image and manage your social media, I hope we get along fine” I said in what I could assume to be a reassuring tone.
This time I was met with more excitement and awe, except from the small one, perhaps I offended her?
No, from my “extensive” investigation offended humans were more vocal about their discontent, this one seemed more scared?
After that realization dawned on me, the only thing I wanted to do now was to cheer up the small one .I always loved primates and obor’s, after all there's a reason I’m a specialist in Obor marketing.
But alas I was not here to do some Obor petting, but to work. I am a professional after all, and I would do my job correctly no matter how cute my clients were with their big and bulbous eyes and little noses.
“So for now, I’m going to see how you work as a group, how you interact with the clients and other stuff, for that I’m just gonna be in the back observing whilst you guys work, any question”
I was immediately met with an array of confirmations ranging from stoic to enthusiastic except from,once again the small one who seemed to try to blend with the shadows.
As such, after saying those words, I positioned myself in a corner in one of the few tables, armed with nothing but a notepad and a hot chocolate, courtesy from Luna, and without further ado began my work in earnest.

2024.05.21 14:06 Zevcio AI stucked in a loop

Someone know what to do if AI is starting to say the same thing, only with one changed line? Like:
Yeah, I'll clean the room. Answered cutely, winking at you. My smile spreading on my face
I am not mad. . Answered cutely, winking at you. My smile spreading on my face
Wanna eat something? . Answered cutely, winking at you. My smile spreading on my face
In worst cases it's literally the same response copy paste. I don't want to reset chat and lost the whole story I built.

2024.05.21 14:05 cheems_samurai i just had the best dream about this girl and it made me feel lonely

there is a girl in my class who i think is cute but i haven't had the courage to talk to her for months.
anyways, i had a dream where we were in PE (we were playing pickleball) and she was looking pretty lonely so i went over to play with her.
we had a great time playing and eventually i hit the ball and it broke when i hit it, which made us both laugh pretty hard.
then in the hallways afterwards, we would smile and give each other a little wave and keep moving to our own class.
the weird thing is that not a word was said between us, but i still had a great time. it's like we were communicating through our emotions and the things happening around us.
it was an amazing dream. we weren't trying to make out, we weren't trying to have s*x, we weren't trying anything. we were just simply enjoying each other's company and it made me feel really happy.
i'm really sad because i know that my social anxiety is too severe to ever approach somebody who i don't know, let alone somebody of the opposite gender.
i'm scared of being alone forever

2024.05.21 13:55 GloucesterRoad93 Tips for helping someone experiment/making it as enjoyable as possible for a first timer

I (30F) met a woman (also 30F) who only recently figured out that she was bi. I should mention that we are in Western Europe so that makes me raise an eyebrow, but I guess everything is possible. She has never been with a woman and is quite eager to try it out, even if she is nervous.
Personally, I understand my assignment here and have very little expectations (if any). I don't want a relationship and she is quite pretty so I'm willing to take a risk. My main concerns are: (I) that she is not into it at all, as she obviously prefers men, and it ends up deeply awkward for both; (II) that I make things worse than they need to be for her.
She has said that I'm very cute and have a great body, so I don't think that looks will be a problem. Of course, I am aware that she is experimenting and that there are no miracles, so the best I can hope for is that I have a pleasant time with a cute woman. With this said, are there any tips that you can give me to give this the best possible chance to be enjoyable?

2024.05.21 13:55 Itchy-Assumption3803 Social Services of the Doomed

Social Services of the Doomed is Verified!![](https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/1443850/header.jpg?t=1680669952)
They have magic and fangs. You have red tape! In this epic conflict between fantasy and bureaucracy, will you save your city, or sell your soul?
Social Services of the Doomed is a 400,000-word interactive urban fantasy novel by Fade Manley. It's entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
As an employee of the Department of Supernatural Social Services, it’s your job to mediate when a dispute breaks out between vampires and werewolves. Which is pretty often, these days. Tensions are rising in your city: not all supernatural citizens think that they have to abide by the law. Flocks of harpies are crowing prophecies of doom; wizards are slinging fireballs; trolls aren’t just having peaceful chats about tunneling technology anymore; there are demons in the werewolf dive bar; and something is up with the ley lines. Sometimes it feels like you’re the only one standing between the supernatural factions and a city in flames.
On the other hand, some factions are willing to cut a deal on the side, so if you really want the city to be in flames - and if you feel like that civil-servant paycheck isn’t stretching as far as you’d like - you could make that happen. Every faction knows that you could be useful to them.
How will you handle it? Will you sneak, fight, negotiate, confuse, or just whip out some obscure county regulations? There’s always more paperwork to be done, and if you fall too far behind, your boss might call you in for a chat about your monthly metrics. (Also, your boss might be a constellation. Don’t ask.)
  • Make your way through the city as a demon, troll, wizard, or completely mundane human.
  • Play as male, female, or non-binary; gay, straight, bi, or asexual.
  • Advance your career, sink your rival's career, or try to play nice with all your coworkers at once.
  • Romance a troll, a demon, a werewolf, a vampire, or your office rival. (Who’s a snake person.)
  • Chase demons out of the cubicle farm before everyone gets back from lunch.
  • Thwart the dastardly plans of Hell’s minions, or sell your soul to them…or just flirt with a cute demon.

Demons and trolls, vampires and werewolves, wizards and harpies... and you're standing in the middle with the most fearsome thing of all: paperwork.

Just saw someone in namenerds say they’ve always loved the name “Havila” after they saw the cute redhead daughter in Fiddler on the Roof with that name (Chava for short). Kind of adorable example of how things get lost in translation!

2024.05.21 13:53 maximusaemilius Empyrean Iris: 2-184 In the Ambiance (by Charlie Star)

FYI, this is a story COLLECTION. Lots of standalones technically. So, you can basically start to read at any chapter, no pre-read of the other chapters needed technically (other than maybe getting better descriptions of characters than: Adam Vir=human, Krill=antlike alien, Sunny=tall alien, Conn=telepathic alien). The numbers are (mostly) only for organization of posts and continuity.
OC Written by Charlie Stastarrfallknightrise,
Typed up and then posted here by me.
Proofreading and language check for some chapters by u/Finbar9800 u/BakeGullible9975 u/Didnotseemecomein and u/medium_jock
Future Lore and fact check done by me.
Awwwww! So cute!

Here is the link to the master-post.
She got up in the dark, with only the dim ambience of soft blue lighting to accompany her. She stretched all four arms, her two legs, and rolled her neck. It struck her as mildly interesting in that moment, how something so small could connect them to humans, The thought was fleeting as she took another step forward to kneel down on the floor. There, in a little alcove in the wall, she had set a volcanic rock from Anin, dried moss, and other paraphernalia from her home world. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath resting her hands together.
Praise and respect to the spirits of Anin. Praise the fathers and mothers of war gone to their rest below the moss and the earth. Praise their spirits that watch from the sky and peer through the ether down upon us.
She continued the slow mantra in the style of Prayer learned from Naktan and pulled her concentration to her core, ignoring anything and everything around her. A deep state of meditation overtook her. She would never have done this if she thought there were any chance that she was in danger, but below she knew Earth glowed like a sphere before their orbiting ship. There was no worry of invasion.
She thought she heard something at one point, but chose to ignore it as she continued her mantra.
Eventually, and after an unknown amount of minutes, she stood and turned slowly to find-
She stopped, and crossed her arms over her chest.
"What are you doing?”
Adam burrowed his way further down into her blankets, nuzzling his head up against her pillow,
"So warm, and comfy!"
She tried not to smile,
"You dumbass."
He pulled the blankets tighter around himself,
"You know, I did come here to talk to you, but now I actually am really comfortable, so come back in two hours."
"I- This is MY home!"
He closed his eyes and pretended to snore loudly.
She rolled her eyes as she watched him theatrically pretend to sleep. She looked around mildly for a moment, before picking up another pillow and glancing at the door. She casually walked over, dropped the pillow on his head and then held it down as if she intended to smother him.
”Die human scum!”
That got him up and moving.
Before long the two of them were grappling for the upper hand, him trying to put her in a choke hold, and her using her lower arms to pinch him.
He yelped,
"Ouch! Pinching is illegal!”
"Sissy."
He clamped his legs around her lower arms, pinning them in place.
She struggled for a minute and then went limp.
She could feel his smug smile,
"I win, I beat the saint of Anin. Everyone bow at my feet."
"You say that, but if this were a real fight, since you’re a human male, you're the one with a self-destruct button."
"Self-destruct button...?"
"Meaning if this were a real fight, I would have punched you in the balls."
"Yaoooutch… Oh god… Please don't."
Finally, he let her go, leaving the two of them to lay on her bed, sheets scattered on the floor around them, and her pillows in disarray. Adam put his hands behind his head and sighed.
She glanced over at him,
"I don't suppose you came to just hang out. Here on Admiral-ly business?"
He groaned, pulling one of her pillows over his face,
"Please smother me for real this time."
She leaned up on one of her elbows,
"Why?"
"I don't wanna be an adult anymore!"
She tilted her head to the side, watching in amusement as he attempted to throw a childlike tantrum, but only really had the energy to kick his feet once,
"It's boring and lame and they won’t let me wear heelies to important meetings... also children don't have to pay taxes."
She laughed, pulling the pillow from his face,
"Adam you are many things, but 'adult' is not one of them."
He grinned slightly,
"True enough."
He sighed again and rested his head back against the pillows,
"I just want to get back to what we are supposed to be doing, exploring the universe and making cool alien friends."
He threw up his hands in frustration,
"But suddenly I find myself embroiled in stupid annoying politics that I don't understand, being used by people who are, let’s face it, WAY smarter than me, constantly finding myself getting manipulated."
She huffed,
"They aren't smarter than you Adam, they're just manipulative, and you aren't."
He sighed,
"Fair enough."
Then he looked at her, bright green eyes reflecting the soft ambient blue light,
"I just, I miss this, I miss us, I miss hanging out and doing stupid shit, and all of the things I could do when I wasn't so important and this operation was smaller."
She smiled rather sadly reaching one hand over for his, lacing the four of her fingers through the five of his,
"Well someone has to do the hard things, who better than you?”
He glanced over at her, raising an eyebrow,
"Or you, miss saint?”
She rolled her eyes again,
"Can't seem to get you off of that. I'm still the same person I used to be."
"But with power."
She elbowed him gently and he grinned,
"But really, I am proud and impressed and... Let's be honest super super smug that 'I' know you personally."
"I know, I am pretty terrific."
The two of them laughed for a minute before settling down again. He glanced over to her little shrine on the wall,
"What were you doing just then?"
She looked up at the ceiling, following the lines of metal and rivets with her eyes,
"Praying to the spirits of Anin."
Embarrassed, he shifted,
"I didn't know you were... Well I didn't think you were all that religious?"
She shrugged,
"Don't feel bad, it's sort of a new thing. Back before all this, it was sort of just stories to me. Like I believed it because that was what everyone believed, but I didn't really accept it, or feel it the way I do now. After everything with my mother, it was hard to feel connected to something I felt I wasn't a part of... But then after visiting my mother, after becoming a saint for a religion I never really followed... Well, it started to make more sense. It feels real now in a way that it never did."
She turned to look at him, finding him watching her, the UV blue stripes in his skin glowing blue.
"I believe in the spirits of Anin more than I ever have."
He smiled at her and squeezed her hand,
"I'm glad to hear it."
They lapsed into silence for a long moment, staring up at the ceiling before, inevitably he broke it,
"So this makes you like, space Moses right?”
She frowned and turned to look at him,
"What is a “Moses”?"
He grinned,
"A guy from one of the Earth Religions. You know, guy follows god's directions to lead his people away from slavery, climbs a mountain, receives the word of god, comes down to give it to the people, that sort of thing."
Sunny tilted her head slightly to the side,
"Are you religious?"
He paused, frowning,
"I... well I... don't really know. My family has been some flavor of Christian for a long time."
"Christian?"
"Uh yeah, the general idea is that there is one all-powerful deity who created everything. He has rules and laws that you are supposed to follow, the general tenants of this specific religion mostly boil down to: love everyone and don't be a dick, which humans are notoriously bad at. You sin you go to hell, a very bad place after you die, and if you are a good person you go to heaven. Problem is everyone is a sinner and breaks the rules, so really no one was going to get into heaven."
"That sounds bleak..."
"Well, that's where the other stuff comes in. Basically, this all-powerful deity sent down his son in human form to live a perfect life, so when he was martyred he took on the sins of all of humanity and paid for them in the greatest act of mercy to open the gate for the rest of us into heaven."
Sunny shifted as he tilted to the side to lay in the crook of her arms,
"Of course that is just one religion among tons on earth, we aren't really as cohesive in our beliefs as Drev are... As for me... I'm not really sure."
She tilted her head to the side, cheek resting against his hair,
"After seeing space, I become more and more convinced of some... Thing that created everything, but beyond that it's sort of a tossup."
She ran one hand through his hair, coarse but still soft somehow.
"You know my name comes from that religion?”
She turned her head to look at him,
"Oh, really?”
"Adam was the first man."
"What do you mean!?”
Adam shrugged,
"He was supposedly the first man that god created, from the dust of the earth... I think?"
She gave him a sidelong glance,
"Look, and you get to be the first idiot in space."
He snorted and poked her in the ribs.
"There were PLENTY of idiots in space before me, believe you me."
"Mmm I don't know, you are pretty dumb."
He laughed, grabbing a pillow and hitting her with it. She rolled over so she was lying on top of him and then went limp.
He struggled,
"Get your big ass off me."
"Oh no, I have been attacked by a sudden acute case of the “my spine doesn't work anymore”-disease."
"If you don't move, you'll suddenly find yourself with a case of “fist in your face”-disease."
She laughed and rolled off him, making sure the hard parts of her carapace were sticking down for maximum discomfort.
He grunted.
They returned to lying down next to each other in the half darkness. Sunny reached over and turned on some quiet music in the background as the two of them sat and talked, and laughed.
"I can't wait to get back to deep space."
He closed his eyes and hummed softly at the thought,
"Just the crew and the darkness and nothing ahead of us but an endless frontier."
Surprisingly, she found the thought to be more than a little comforting, and closed her eyes thinking about the vast reaches of blackness and the endless spinning galaxies.
"And while we are out, we can drop Conn into a pulsar."
He snorted,
“Why? Well first of for scientific reasons! If a marshmallow causes a nuclear blast, I wonder what dropping Conn would do… but at least he’d be dead.”
"That billowy bastard would survive and you know it."
She huffed,
"Still though, if I have to hear one more smug lecture how he has a child with you, I'm gonna wring his scrawny neck."
He grinned teeth flashing blue in the light,
"Is someone... Jealous?"
Sunny laughed, almost tipping him off the bed and onto the floor with her mirth,
"Yes Adam, I am totally jealous, really I am, ‘kay?. I mean who wouldn't want to have a child with YOU, big dumb, dork. Really the perfect place to put my superior genes."
"Superior genes, says someone who can't reach the top shelf."
She kicked him, foot clanging off his prosthetic,
"I am a foot taller than you."
He placed his hand next to his ear,
"What was that, I can't hear you over how short you are."
Sunny shook her head,
"At least I have binocular vision and both my knees."
"So we are gonna ignore that that binocular vision is due to a prosthetic now after the whole “your mom” incident? And also, veeery important: weird neck nostrils, don't forget about those!"
"Oh yes, so I can’t house them on my face like you and your bigass nose."
"Low blow, low blow."
"There are... Lower things... I could make fun of."
He snorted,
"Can't make fun of it if you've never seen it. You on the other hand, walking around in the nude..."
"You're welcome. Who wouldn't love…"
She gestured to herself,
"This."
"Mmm yeah... chitin, very sexy."
"I am a gift to the universe, and should be appreciated by everyone."
He brushed a hand through his hair,
"Well I find that real gifts are gift wrapped, so jot that down."
"Oh yeah, like a prank gift when you put something lame in a box for something cool."
He frowned at her,
"You wound me. My feelings are so very very hurt. I might even cry."
"I drink human tears."
"That… that's really gross.'
She laughed and then they lapsed into silence. She could hear him breathing quietly next to her in the darkness, his chest rising and falling under the ambient blue light. She looked across the room to where her saint armor was hanging in its climate-controlled case illuminated to a pearly sheen.
"Adam?"
"Yeah?”
"You know I'm just kidding about calling you dumb right?"
"Yeah I know."
"I'm proud of what you've been doing."
Adam turned to look at her rather incredulous,
"Me, of what? I haven't been doing shit."
"So, we are just going to ignore you overthrowing a maniacal politician while simultaneously piloting a 2,000 year old spacecraft?"
"That was more Conn and Eris than it was me."
"It was your idea."
"Let’s not forget Admiral Kelly."
Sunny pulled him closer,
"I am sorry, I will not be accepting anything other than you acknowledging that you did a good job."
"Screw you!”
"You'd like that wouldn't you?”
He sighed,
"You've been talking to Ramirez WAY too much."
She was only slightly smug as she rested her head back against the pillow,
"I really should get up and train..."
"We should yeah..."
Neither of them moved.
"Alternatively, we could just... Lay here... All day and do... nothing."
She looked up at the ceiling for a long moment and pretended to be in deep contemplation before…
"Well it's official, you have convinced me. You and your silver tongue."
"I am a master negotiator."
He shifted position putting one arm behind his head,
"Think about it, by this time tomorrow we will be back to space exploring and doing what we should have been doing all along. I can't wait."
"That makes two of us."

Intro post by me
OC-whole collection
Patreon of the author
Thanks for reading! As you saw in the title, this is a cross posted story written by starrfallknightrise and I'll just upload some of it here for you guys, if you are interested and want to read ahead, the original story-collection can be found on tumblr or wattpad to read for free. (link above this text under "OC:..." ) It is the Empyrean Iris story collection by starfallknightrise. Also, if you want to know more about the story collection i made an intro post about it, so feel free to check that out to see what other great characters to look forward to! (Link also above this text). I have no affiliations to the author; just thought I’d share some of the great stories you might enjoy a lot!
Obviously, I have Charlie’s permission to post this and for the people already knowing the stories, or starting to read them: If you follow the link and check out the story you will see some differences. I made some small (non-artistic) changes, mainly correcting writing mistakes, pronoun correction and some small additional info here and there of things which were not thought of/forgotten or even were added/changed in later stories (like the “USS->UNSC” prefix of Stabby, Chalar=/->Sunny etc). As well as some "biggemajor" changes in descriptions and info’s for the same stringency/continuity reason. That can be explained by the story collection being, well a story collection at the start with many standalone-stories just starring the same people, but later on it gets more to a stringent storyline with backstories and throwbacks. (For example Adam Vir has some HEAVY scars over his body, following his bones, which were not really talked about up till half the collection, where it says it covers his whole body and you find out via backflash that he had them the whole time and how he got them, they just weren't mentioned before. However, I would think a doctor would at least see these scars before that, especially since he gets analyzed, treated and goes shirtless/in T-shirts in some stories). So TLDR: Writing and some descriptions are slightly changed, with full OK from the author, since he himself did not bother to correct these things before.

2024.05.21 13:48 nezxiolnexus Ranking the persona 4 romances

Number 8:Ayane Matsunaga
That should be self explainitory she is a child I never got to meet her in my playthrough thankfully but anyone who picks her to date is honestly an opp. I find it funny that atlus can give us children as dating options but they refuse to let us date guys! ;;
Number 7:yumi Ozawa
Now yumi in all honesty is a cool gal and a great friend but I just felt her story was a bit too what do you say cliche? It felt like a soap opera sure I felt bad about her family situation but I saw the ending and outcome fairly easy plus I don't like her png tbh
Number 6:ai ebihara
I don't have much to say about her considering I have yet to meet her in my second run but in my opinion having a fake dating option is extremely stupid tbh I would have rather the doctor from the hospital over her..
Number 5:Yukio amagi
You can flame me in the comments but I will stand my ground by saying she is and always will be in my eyes a wet blanket. Don't get me wrong she's funny at times and her reactions are cool n everything I just find her very bland and boring. I saw a clip of her valentines day and I didn't find much appeal in it compared to chie whom I dated first. I will say though she has the coolest looking persona!
Number 4:Marie
Now she's an interesting question in the fact of her story (spoilers ahead you've been warned) the fact she was part of izanami and the fog was a great twist in my opinion and the fact she was struggling and didn't want to be bothered really touched my heart. Hell even before that she was a very cute character but I always saw her more a friend than lover. Maybe I'll date her in my 3rd run but dating or not ill always save her
Number 3:rise kujikawa
If you've seen my previous post yes I'm dating rise she won the pole boysss!!!! Apart from that rise I think is the easiest romance considering she's the only character in the game that shows interest in you without needing a dialog option like chie or Yukio. Shes very cute and pretty mind you and I can see myself dating her which is why she's gonna be the one for my second run!
Number 2:Naoto shirogane
Probably the most underrated waifu in the persona series not only is she a complex character and is a total badass at that but she's also very shy and to herself alot. My type of girl is one who's very confident and smart but when around someone she's loves is very quiet and shy it's a type I find myself enjoying tons in games and in real life. Honestly Naoto would have been Number 1 if only the fact that you meet her extremely late in the game to the point where dating her isn't really that long. And by that point you've missed cute moments I love ya Naoto but If only they introduced you earlier
Which means it's time for the grand finale but first I'd like to put an honorable mention if atlus actually let us date men
Honorable mention:teddie
Teddie is always and will always be a very cute option for me in the fact with his bad jokes his personality and his innocence. (Again spoilers ahead) with the part where you could have kissed teddie man how fast I pushed that button. I won't forgive atlus for taking yosuke and teddie as options...
Now it's time for!!!!
NUMBER 1: CHIE SATONAKA!
If you have been paying attention I've made many mentions to chie satonaka throughout this listing mainly because well for me her romance fame out of left field for me.. when I started p4 I knew Naoto and was gonna date her but chie romance just...happend again if you've seen the rest of this post you'll see she fits my boxes shy badass cute the whole shebang but the thing that I think really solidifies her spot in Number 1 is this line in the valentines day romance is (spoilers again) "I still can't belive you chose me" that line hit me like a semi truck it's as if she's not just talking to your character but to the player itself because many pick Naoto Yukio or rise and rarely her and during my playthrough I felt slight regret for not waiting. But that line made me realize that I chose right.
Anyways that's all for today yall can hit me up in the comments give me your own thoughts opinions and list changes and as always have a great day! Byeeeeee

2024.05.21 13:42 DaFranzi Newbie questions about renfair ticket prices, Elfia, MSP, and Germany/EU recommendations

I'm a total renfaire newbie but I've been looking to go to some events where you can dress up fantasy style and just have fun. I've been looking into renfaires, medieval markets, fantasy balls, etc.
I'm from southern Germany and I had the issue that most things i found are just medieval, not fantasy, themed. A lot of festivals also seem to focus mainly on the music (fantasy, celtic, metal type bands), which I honestly don't care that much about. I mainly want to go for the atmosphere, seeing other people's costumes and cosplays, browsing cute trinket stores, having some good food, maybe meeting some new people etc.
I noticed that there is a spectaculum (MSP) in Speyer, which would be close to me, but the tickets are almost 70 euros for one day, which seems absurd, because afaik you still have to pay for food, attractions, etc. or am I wrong? I saw that the Elfia in the Netherlands is only around 40 euros in comparison, which i still think is quite expensive, but it seems a lot more reasonable.
Is 70 euros a normal price? How is that justified (serious question, maybe I'm missing something that's included in the price)? And does anyone have any other, cheaper recommendations in Germany, or any neighbouring countries? I'm fine with something smaller, as long as it's fantasy, not just medieval, and has many people dressing up (I want to be able to dress up as something like a fairy/kobold/hobbit/... without getting weird looks). I'm considering Elfia, but it's quite far, so I would have to pay quite some money for the train, and accommodation, so I want to be pretty sure that it's what I'm looking for. Also feel free to point me to different subreddits, if there are any that are more fitting for this.

2024.05.21 13:42 Far-Resist-3380 AITAH for being mad at my nieces half sisters mother for basically flashing my boyfriend?

There’s a lot of backstory im not allowed to mention, but I’ll do my best. My sister and this girl got pregnant by the same guy. He was super shitty to both of them and so this girl reached out to my sister looking for friendship. They recently started hanging out which was fine at first until I started to bring my boyfriend around her. The first time they met, she compared him to her father and called him cute. I was there and just sort of laughed it off because we’d just end and she’s super weird. Like the type of person who does spells and stuff. Her child is also a toddler, who is way past the age of breastfeeding, but she still chooses to do so. I personally have no problem with a woman feeding her child and I don’t find it weird to breastfeed in public or in front of people. I just feel like there should be some sort of covering involved, but if there isn’t it’s not a big deal. I was at work one day and she had been over. My boyfriend is really good with kids and thinks her kid is adorable so he decided to stop by and say hi while I was at work. While I was gone, she ended up essentially flashing him. She pulled out her boob fully in front of him and just started to rub it while looking at him talking about how bad it hurts. That was the tipping point for me. Along with this she has done more subtle things. She doesn’t hug me when she says hi, but will have a prolonged hug with my boyfriend. She also has her kid call him uncle while she doesn’t even tell her kid my name. My boyfriend has expressed to me that he feels super uncomfortable around her. He is 7 years younger than her btw. I just have a weird feeling when they’re around each other because she never acts like that when I’m around. I don’t really know if I want to say something or if this is too early in the situation. I just feel that it’s disrespectful to act this way knowing it’s her friends little sisters boyfriend? I feel bad but also I don’t ? I’m not sure how to feel. Tell me if I’m overreacting or not!

2024.05.21 13:35 Unlucky-Basil-3704 Fake flower safe

So, I'm going to rearrange my jumping spider's enclosure soon, because she's starting lose grip. Gonna put more textured things in her enclosure a and just stop a while rearranging thing.
Now, I have this cute yellow fake hibiscus flower, I think it's some kind of nylon mesh or something? I know that certain substances can harm your spider, which is f.ex. why you shouldn't wash your hands with fragrant soaps before handling etc. How would i go about making sure this flower is safe then? If i wash it, i don't own soap that is non fragrant (i don't handle my spood, she never got around to liking that), and i worry that if i use boiling water, it'll ruin the flower.
Suggestions?

2024.05.21 13:27 HozukiMari Ask the community, week #3: What 4* characters do you want to have C6 one day?

Ask the community, week #3: What 4* characters do you want to have C6 one day?
Aside from Kaeya being the obvious answer (I am only one con away from C6 so it's gonna happen soon!!!), I have a couple of 4* I'd like to C6 one day:
  1. Faruzan
https://preview.redd.it/buhbamdsoq1d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4e0ccd1faa21cd192919cbc386809abbbd176ff
I'm sorry, MADAM Faruzan. I currently have her C4, and I use her together with Heizou. I am sure we might get more Anemo DPS in the future (Varka, maybe? I'd love a tall male Anemo DPS ngl) so C6 Faruzan would definitely be a good thing to have. I have made a damage test with my Heizou and someone's C6 Faruzan and holy cow, that was a really big number that appeared.
2. Thoma
https://preview.redd.it/xe40l4tpqq1d1.png?width=2500&format=png&auto=webp&s=247da83082c42a3daafd8a14f99f55e9fef51199
I want this cute cookie on C6. He's currently C2 and while his C4 refunds some energy, his C6 gives a 15% buff to normal/charged/plunge attacks. Since I use him with Alhaitham, that would be an amazing benefit, not gonna lie.
3. Chevreuse
https://preview.redd.it/c3ky4o3njr1d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=5ce7e62074b640538eda567e45fc17beef3c0487
I don't even know what con I have her at right now, just that it's most definitely not C6. C1 or C2, perhaps. I'd love to try out Arlecchino Overload with a C6 Chevreuse, it sounds fun. And yes, I researched on the matter, Chevreuse's C6 works on Arlecchino even if she can't be healed.
4. Gaming
https://preview.redd.it/4b61vcx7kr1d1.png?width=1400&format=png&auto=webp&s=5697c98e66a7564746645b52d3e4912611f22b85
His C6 is busted, just like Heizou's. Mine is C2 right now and since I plan to pull for Xianyun and Furina sometime in the future, I would love to see that damage because it ought to be insane. Please don't give him the Kaveh treatment and lock him in the basement, Hoyoverse... Although, he is a Liyue character so chances of that happening aren't high.

2024.05.21 13:01 HeidiInWonderland The truth hurts. Who said the truth would set you free?

Written by both Heidi and Lita. Lita has to leave early for her internship so Heidi is posting this.
We had a very long, difficult, and important conversation with our mothers last night. We are posting this with their permission, hoping that it might help others like us.
It's hard for us to imagine any other 16-year-olds having a more wonderful year than we have had. How many people find their life partners at our young age? We trained our bodies, dove into our respective art forms, gained insight into our future careers, earned/saved a lot of money, made many friends, explored Buddhism, and joined two families into one.
But we were building a new family on a foundation of deceit and this is what had to change. Back to our conversation.
"We had led you to believe we met at school volleyball team practice back in September. We told you we discovered our soulmates and we were queer. From there we lived hard and well, became a family of six, and then everything else followed. We don't regret a second.
"We just left out one fact...we met and began our relationship one year earlier when we were in 9th grade. We had kept it secret from you. Sound familiar? It is like the story of Emma Nolan and Alyssa Greene in The Prom."
It is hard to describe the look in their eyes. We saw disbelief, shock, hurt, anger, and mostly a sense of betrayal.
Muma: How did you really meet?
Lita: Actually, we told you the story. In fact, we have been leaving clues all over the place kind of hoping we would be discovered.
Heidi: This goes back to September 2022. I was on the crosstown bus. I saw some boys get on. One stayed in the front and the others placed themselves in the aisle going down. The boy in the front grabbed a girl's phone and they passed it to each other. The boy at the end got the phone and walked out of the rear door. I had seen the entire thing and just followed him. He thought he had committed the perfect crime and I approached him. "I saw everything. I know your face, what you are wearing, and your sneakers. I know your friends. Give me the phone and I won't say a word." He did. I walked back to the bus and there was the girl with the bus driver and a couple of cops at the side of the bus. She was sobbing and they were trying to comfort her. I went up, told them what had happened, and gave her the phone back.
Mom: I remember the story. And you are saying that the girl you helped was Lita.
Muma: And the little heroine you told Pupa and me about was Heidi?
Lita: Yes. I was an absolute wreck, completely unconsolable. I felt violated and humiliated. The girl grabbed me by the arm and simply said "Come, let's sit down." She brought me to a cute ice cream restaurant she knew near Bloomingdale's. What's your favorite flavor? I said Plain Vanilla. What's yours? Chocolate. We looked at each other's skin and just had to laugh.
Heidi: I can't describe how I was feeling while we eating ice cream. Waves and waves and waves of emotions hit me.
Lita: All I could do was look Heidi in the eyes and hold her hand.
Mom: I remember that story very clearly.
Lita: We exchanged numbers and IG. Then came texts, calls, secret hookups, the first kiss, and the rest.
Heidi: It was like The King And I, "Hello Young Lovers."
Lita: It was High School Admissions time and I encouraged Heidi to audition for LaGuardia for the 10th grade.
Mom: So that was what that was all about?
Muma: But I don't understand why you felt a need to keep your relationship a secret for an entire year!
This was really the hardest part of the conversation. We talked about all the emotions we were experiencing. What, we are in love? We are lesbians? We are sneaking behind our parents' backs? We are watching lesbian porn and acting it out? What, I am with a black/white girl? All this shame at once and we couldn't figure a way out until Girls Volleyball. We even left some hints on this blog in case you read it.
Muma: What is most painful to me is that this was the time you needed your mothers the most and you went through the entire year all alone.
We are four strong woman. We were at a place far beyond "How dare you? This has to end. You are grounded. Scotland is off." There was thoughtful silence, long looks into each other's eyes, and then cuddling on the couch and watching The Good Doctor.
We all had the same thought. How are we going to tell Dad and Pupa?

2024.05.21 12:55 chanma50 'Hit Man' Review Thread

I will continue to update this post as reviews come in.
Rotten Tomatoes: Certified Fresh
Critics Consensus: A deceptively dark thriller that's also loaded with laughs, Hit Man is an outstanding showcase for leading man Glen Powell -- and one of the most purely entertaining films of Richard Linklater's career.
Score Number of Reviews Average Rating
All Critics 96% 81 8.30/10
Top Critics 93% 27 8.00/10
Metacritic: 82 (21 Reviews)
Sample Reviews:
“Hit Man” is studded with delicious moments, but as amusing as the movie is it has a plot that sprawls forward in a rather ungainly fashion, and it goes on for too long. - Owen Gleiberman, Variety
Smart and steamy screwball fun. - Leslie Felperin, Hollywood Reporter
The comedy is a deliriously entertaining star vehicle for actor Glen Powell. - Ben Croll, TheWrap
“Hit Man,” Linklater’s latest film, falls into the fun-with-a-heart (and brain) category. It’s got a lot going for it. For one thing, there’s Linklater’s deft touch, particularly when juggling comedy and romance (with a little crime drama thrown in). 4/5 - Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic
A smartly written, sublimely comedic, and sexy human-scale relationship story with a touch of just enough suspense and hints of criminality to prove that its title is not a complete misnomer. 4/5 - Cary Darling, Houston Chronicle
In the hands of a lesser director, Hit Man would surely have felt rather thin and disposable. But Linklater is a pro, and he manages to make the film’s fripperies feel borderline profound. 4/5 - Xan Brooks, Guardian
An intelligent comedy that contains plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and references Kant and Nietzsche, it is also a thriller that is darker than it first appears. - Jo-Ann Titmarsh, London Evening Standard
Hit Man trips along on great writing, Linklater’s witty, light-touch direction and a rich sense of place, but what makes it especially pleasurable is Powell and Arjona’s naturally steamy rapport. 4/5 - Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph (UK)
... An effervescent comedy from Richard Linklater that simultaneously snubs its nose at the entire genre while easily nabbing the honour of most purely entertaining film to grace the Lido so far. 4/5 - Kevin Maher, Times (UK)
Another, crueller writer-director would have pivoted to scenes of bloody violence, but Linklater prefers to ponder the question of whether you can will yourself into becoming a different person. 4/5 - Nicholas Barber, BBC.com
A sorta-true story about an average guy who finds himself caught in a web of crime and deception, Hit Man is a cute and clever (sometimes overbearingly so) showcase for Powell’s magnetic charm. - Richard Lawson, Vanity Fair
The police scenes are just light enough to be funny, the screwball sequences are just dark enough to keep you on the edge of your seat, and Powell... is obviously elated to be handling such twisty material. - Shirley Li, The Atlantic
This genial comedy/noir is a genuine crowdpleaser – funny, sexy, clever and confident in building a low-key humour which hits the target over and over again. - Fionnuala Halligan, Screen International
It’s a genuinely riotous time at the cinema and concrete proof Powell is perhaps our brightest hope when it comes to keeping the notion of the movie star alive. - Hannah Strong, Little White Lies
Hit Man is hot and hilarious, a winning combination amplified by a story that gets knottier at every turn. - Nick Schager, The Daily Beast
Powell’s ability to power through some dull material on charm alone only reaffirms the credibility of his stardom, and the film’s general lack of ambition keeps things from going awry whenever a joke doesn’t land. Aim small, miss small. B- - David Ehrlich, indieWire
I’s just fun to watch good old-fashioned comedy in which love, danger, and happy endings are all part of a damn fine evening at the movies. - Alissa Wilkinson, Vox
With Richard Linklater’s Hitman, the charismatic Glen Powell has been offered a plum opportunity to shape his image into something more complicated and often poignant. 3/4 - Zach Lewis, Slant Magazine
[A] light-and-lively comedy. - Jordan Hoffman, The Messenger
Comfortably Linklater’s best movie since Boyhood, Hit Man stands alongside School of Rock for big laughs and good vibes – albeit with a darker streak that slowly kicks in. 4/5 - Philip De Semlyen, Time Out
Powell and Linklater would have done better to take Johnson’s story as a launching point and then spun off into their far more complicated version of his life without literally tethering the movie to a real person. - Alonso Duralde, The Film Verdict
Linklater has long had a gift with playful humor, and he nails the tone here without turning “Hit Man” into the slapstick it could have become. - Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
A comedy/thriller that’s in equal parts charming, nerve-wracking, and ethically challenging. - Glenn Kenny, RogerEbert.com
Every interesting aspect of the true story and the imagined story are smoothed out. - Drew Gregory, Autostraddle
The smoldering, wily, wild-but-true Hit Man returns Linklater to his loquacious take on romance, with a man using his gift of gab to shrug off himself. - Charles Bramesco, Inside Hook
A witty, relaxed, and cheerfully fictionalized comedy-caper-romance; in the bargain there’s some light philosophical meditations on the impermanence of personality. 4/4 - Ty Burr, Ty Burr's Watch List
It’s as if Linklater is playing posthumous wingman for his subject, giving him the rom-com-slick Hollywood ending he never got in life. - Keith Uhlich, (All (Parentheses))
SYNOPSIS:
Oscar-nominated director Richard Linklater’s sunlit neo-noir stars Glen Powell as strait-laced professor Gary Johnson, who moonlights as a fake hit man for the New Orleans Police Department. Preternaturally gifted at inhabiting different guises and personalities to catch hapless people hoping to bump off their enemies, Gary descends into morally dubious territory when he finds himself attracted to one of those potential criminals, a beautiful young woman named Madison (Adria Arjona). As Madison falls for one of Gary’s hit man personas — the mysteriously sexy Ron — their steamy affair sets off a chain reaction of play acting, deception, and escalating stakes. Co-written by Linklater and Powell and inspired by an unbelievable true story, Hit Man is a cleverly existential comedy about identity.

2024.05.21 12:51 ExpressionGeneral418 Why do I care now?

I’m lost and confused after a recent breakup.
My ex broke up with me a few weeks ago. We had been dating about a year and a half. I met her on a dating app and it was one of those relationships that developed by doing one date a week for several months. It was a year after I got out of a toxic relationship.
About 3 months into hanging out. she asked if I would be her bf. At first I cringed on the idea, not because it was her, but more so because I wasn’t sure about it. She was a great girl but I wasn’t sold on relationship material. I have crazy high standards and she didn’t fit appearance standard. But I went along with it, I told her I still wanted to be able to approach or work on social skills with other girls even if just plutonicly. Fast forward another several months and the I love you statement came up. I wasn’t entirely sure about how I felt but I again went along with it. I did come around to the whole thing though.
She was a very loving, loyal, committed gf, and did anything for me. She made a lot of money (6 figures). Unfortunately I didn’t really find her incredibly magnetizing. She was cute, but not crazy attractive in my eye. Also, the fact that she was so wholesome, it didn’t allow for much witty banter. Conversations were mostly plutonic, where I’m more of the sarcastic type. She always wanted to pull out the calendar and schedule plans months in advance every week. She did all of these crazy google calendar overlays and I felt like I was always being sucked into things I didn’t want to do. She became more clingy than I had realized when I first met her. She even asked me about 3 months ago, if we could spend not just weekends together, but also Wednesday nights. (We lived just over an hour apart). I suggested it could be every other week (the opposite)…I didn’t like going to her place because of the road noise where she lived and I would really only see her when she would visit me. When apart I was fine going several weeks without seeing each other. Phone calls were enough. I know, all of this sounds really one sided and like I’m an asshole. But I was very loving to her in person and she knows that, hence why it lasted so long.
Unfortunately a lot of things she did turned me off. She was too readily available, always trying to lock up my calendar, talk about marriage and kids in the next 3-5 years and I felt trapped. We had great sex but it wasn’t crazy passionate, neither was our kissing. When alone, and was feeling aroused, I generally didn’t think of my ex. I constantly found myself checking out other girls places I went (but never talked to them). I felt like wow I wish that was the kind of girl I was with. Although my ex was cute, and attractive to most, I didn’t really feel “proud” to have her with me when I went out…I debated for months on what to do.
In the end she left me, and I shouldn’t really be surprised. But now I’m wishing I had her. Maybe not for the right reasons though? I just think where would I find a girl that loyal, dedicated, and make that kind of money without being money hungry.
I’m trying to figure out why if I wanted to end things myself how come all of a sudden I want her back? Is it just the void of not having someone loyal who’s there for me? The fear of not meeting someone as smart? She’s already talking to other guys and I’m just a wreck and need some advice. I can’t go an hour without thinking of her. I think I need to rewire the way I am thinking. I can’t stop thinking that maybe I made a mistake and should have put in more effort, but I feel like if I truly loved/had that spark for her I would have tried more all along
Do you think this was a good thing this happened?

2024.05.21 12:50 BlueCometOwO I’m not sure if I am trans

I keep starting the day convinced that I want to transition mtf, but as the day goes on I doubt myself more and more and by the time I get to bed, I struggle to sleep. I’ve only known I’ve felt this way for sure for about a fortnight, but I’ve been subconsciously feeling this way for far longer.
The thing is, my doubts aren’t caused by me no longer wanting to be a woman, but more so that I don’t know if it’s just a passing phase. I just turned 16 so I feel time pressure against me since I don’t want my face to become any more masculine.
I’ve never felt feminine, until I painted my nails one time and it sort of made me feel almost cute? I don’t really care about pronouns, at least for now, and my main worry is that I won’t look like a cis woman after going on oestrogen.
At the same time, over the years I’ve become obsessed with getting things for about a month, and then the want just dies. If this is just that again I feel like I’d be disappointed that I’m not trans?
Any advice?

2024.05.21 12:42 chingchona I 27M am on the fence about girlfriend 27F after almost 1 year?

I should start with saying this is my first relationship/girlfriend. I finally stopped being super picky about my "requirements" and gave OLD another go.
I met her approx 1 year ago. She's super cute and we initially got on really well because of our similar culture/upbringing. It's also both of ours' first relationship.
Early on, I never really felt the butterflies/rush you get when you crush on someone. However people told me this was "healthy". We usually see each other once a week - I don't really feel the desire to see her much more to be honest. It's not bad when we hangout more, it's just kind of boring. We barely text, just a reel every now and again. I feel like we don't have much to talk about as our interests are so different. When I think about weekend plans, I sometimes rather hang out with my guy friends instead.
She's super lovely, not superficial, great looks and because of our similar culture my parents would love her (lol)
We don't share any hobbies and the only thing we really do together is watch tv, or go out for food. I like the outdoors and fitness and she likes to stay home.
I don't know why, but I just can't seem to commit myself to her. I'm not sure if I love her. They say you know when you know, but I don't know... She told me for the first time she loves me. I said it back but it almost felt weird. It's like I'm afraid of it or something.
Since I've never really dated before this, I have nothing to compare it to. I honestly don't know what I want in a relationship, and what I'm supposed to be feeling. I feel like if I end things, I'll probably break her heart and I might look back and wonder if she really was the "one". I'll probably go back to OLD and regret everything lol. If I stay, I keep thinking "what if" there's someone I click with better.
Can it be normal to be 1 year in and not be sure about the future? I keep questioning if she's the one over the last few weeks and I'm feeling lost.

2024.05.21 12:41 One-Shower-9086 help

I honestly just don’t get it. sure porn was interesting to look at while i was a budding and horny teen just buying my first vibe, or just giving oral for the first time, but i truly can say i have no interest in anything; porn, other men/partners, whatsoever since i have been in this relationship. i’m 21, so i’m pretty young. i have gained a good bit of weight since we have been together, maybe 20-15 pounds, but he insists he still loves the way i look and that i am perfect. I’m just wondering what, if i am “perfect” there is to gain from porn?? why he is looking at OF leaks on reddit on his break, saving them while he’s in a drive through line, why he’s searching on some dodgy porn site for leaked content less than 10 minutes after we have sex while i am in the bathroom? our first d-day was a good while ago, around late august of last year. we have definitely had more, and while things have gotten marginally better, my one boundary is still not being respected. i even relented that he could still watch porn, but that’s o was not at all comfortable with him consciously seeking out individual women to look at— especially when those women look like everything i would have nearly died to look like at one point. one girl he even knew in person. since maybe the 3rd dday (novemberish) he deleted his “photo vault/spank bank” but i still find myself looking up the women i found on ig and comparing myself to what it is that he actually likes — what actually gets him off. our sex life has suffered, which i feel probably leads him more to porn and other self fulfilling methods.
04/16/24 i wrote that march 18th and to be quite honest, as I sit here mid april in the middle of the night, nothing has changed. I went through his phone again (pain shopping i know i know) after i glimpsed a porn site open while looking at his tax forms and closing his open apps (as i always do). i think i even made a comment about pretending that I didn’t see the porn/naked body on his screen. But I did. So now I sit here, sobbing next to him in bed at 3am while he snores and feeling again like the little girl who just wanted to be the first choice, not a compromise someone settles on. So now I sit here, wondering what is next, who is next, and how I change myself in order to ‘help’ him get away from porn. you see if i looked like the girls he wanted of course he wouldn’t need the others. So now I sit here, fighting the urge to make myself purge for the first time in years, to be closer to that image he so desperately needs, and cannot get from me. i sit thinking of the girl who so dearly wanted to be like the others, the ones who didn’t develop early, or later, the ones who didn’t have abnormally large boobs, just a cute butt and a flat flat stomach. the girl who just wanted to be loved so badly; who craved it as a child and can never seem to achieve it as an adult.
05/20/2024 the first week of may i cried myself to sleep every night. two of those i sobbed so hard he woke up. i don’t know what to do anymore. i grabbed his phone again today, after he had been to the bathroom for an extended amount of time with no shower running, and lo and behold! of course, there it was. every single time without fail. i just don’t know what to do. i want to look like those girls he looks at. i want to throw up my meals and workout relentlessly. i want to shrink my boobs and grow my ass. i want to be tiny again. i want to never eat again. i want him to physically see his harm change me— just as it has forever changed me mentally. i have cut myself down to around 1400 calories daily, with daily exercise of course as well. but even if i lose weight it will still not be enough. i haven’t been going to the gym for years and meal prepping and eating specifically. i fear i will never look like who he prefers. writing this, i want to claw anything ive ever eaten out of my body, i want to go back in time and tell younger me to work out, to care. i want to be pretty again, to stay pretty this time. i know anyone would tell me to break up and to leave, to put myself first, but i cant. i have never loved someone so hugely and completely. i know that i will most likely never have the strength to leave someone who i love, and despite everything, does/did love me in my eyes. at the same time i dont know how to look at him anymore. tonight i went and looked at every girl i could remember him looking at and searched them on instagram. there were 15 of them. i think i may send their profiles all at once to him in the morning when he wakes up. maybe even right in front of him— just to see his reaction. is that sick of me? i just want him to know that i know, and that honestly its ruining my life. i never feel pretty. I have never felt so ugly, so hideous, so monstrous, that my own boyfriend can’t even get off to me. sometimes i can’t even look at him. it hurts too much. i’m worried that if he looks at me too long that he will find something else that he dislikes about me, and look even more to rectify that in yet another woman. i almost wish he would find this and magically know this was about us, not that it would solve anything really. I have already poured my heart out, spoken calmly, been angry, forgiven, and sobbed as hard as i ever have before. what else i can do.

2024.05.21 12:36 No-New-Therapy I was called cute by a really amazing girl and my brain couldn’t register her complement

I’m 5’10 and weight around 260 in February of last year. I had a few picture taken of me at a party and it dawned on me just how awful I looked. I was doing a lot of research on weight loss / found this sub and decided I need to cut out all my sugary drinks and snacks and really only eat 2 meals with tracked calories (I usually skip breakfast)
Life got crazy busy, got a more labor intensive job and I just didn’t buy a scale so I didn’t keep track. I also moved out of state for work so I didn’t see many friends often. But I saw one friend after almost a whole year and he told me I looked incredible. I checked his scale to see I was 225. I was in disbelief. I had lost so much weight. I remember asking him several times if his scale was broken. It was crazy to see.
I continued with my diet and job for a few months. Bought a scale and when I was around 210 I matched with this really pretty/ cool girl from a dating app. My profile is silly and the stars just aligned in the conversation so I asked her in a date thinking it would be only one date sorta thing. But to my surprise, we went on several dates.
On our fourth date I told her I enjoyed spending time with her because she’s really cool she said I was cool too and it helped that I was also really cute too and I just remember not understanding what she meant (I know it sounds dumb but I have low self esteem) but I couldn’t grasp that she thought I was cute. I went home, processed the comment, and wanted to cry lol.
Just a nice memory I had. That was about 2 months ago and I’m around 202lbs now.

2024.05.21 12:09 suddenly_lost_ [m4f] lonely single daddy gets carried away. Wholesome daddy daughter playtime

I’m looking for a loving, wholesome daddy/daughter story with a lonely single daddy who gets carried away, and a daughter who’s too needy and clingy to care. Below is just a fun little game that could kick things off. If this doesn’t sound fun I’m sure we could come up with another start. We could play horsey, or if bondage is your thing, daddy could be kidnapping the princess.
————————————
“Fee fi fo fum! I smell the blood of a tasty little princess!” My voice booms and I stomp loud lumbering footsteps up the stairs. I knew exactly where you were hiding. You’d hidden in the same spot since you were old enough to play hide and seek, but we still always made a game of it.
“And I’m so hungry!” I growled as I stomped in to your room and saw your little feet sticking out from under the bed.
What happens next? Do you keep trying to escape so daddy ties up your little legs? Do I tickle you relentlessly until your giggles turn to moans? Do I blow raspberries on your tummy but move my lips a little lower than they should?
—————————————————————
I hope the above caught your attention and you’re in the mood for a wholesome playtime with a single father and his young daughter that gradually goes just that little bit too far. A daddy and daughter who are so close I’d do anything to see her smile, and she’d do anything to make me proud. But being a single father is so lonely. Would I be able to resist the slightest bit of affection?
My main kinks beside ageplay and incest are public play, total infatuation, cum addiction, cute outfits, and teasing and edging. For limits, I’m not looking for any sort of rape or force, don’t want anything that belongs in the toilet (flexible on pee) and I’m super possessive so I will not be sharing you with anyone. Mention another man’s cock in anyway and I’ll end the conversation.
Reddit chat sucks so it would be great if you had discord, session, or telegram. All in my post history.
