Is it even worth it to go to conventions anymore?

I've been raised a rich kid. My family has always been well off, yet among my siblings I have become the most stingy of the bunch. At the same time I've come to accept and expect good makeup for my shit skin to cost 50$+ (which also lasts me virtually forever. I've never finished any makeup, because I used it so little while I grew up. More on this later) But in some sort of twisted sense I've been ashamed of my rich background and adopted the outlook of "I'm not rich. My parents are rich." In certain situations I've lied about which part of town I live in because the one I do is well known to be full of old-money snobs.

This ILD I slept over at a friend's place, which did lead me to see some of my comm-friends without makeup for once. This sweet girl Bunny (who I knew from other situations before joining lolita myself) was complaining about the dark circles around her eyes. I got a little sad, and tried to cheer her up by saying that her problem is at least fixable with concealer. She admits that's true, but then went on how the concealer she needs is 30$ (or something, I almost hope I misheard) and so exclusive she usually asks to get it as a Christmas gift each year. I didn't comment on it but... 30$? That's nothing if it's makeup which works well and is essential to your facial fulfilment.

I'm feeling anxious, because even if I don't know Bunny all that well, I do want to become her friend. She has been at my house, in the rich neighbourhood, but I don't know much about her financial situation. Now I'm fretting that in time I'll come to realise she's terrible with money, or just has a completely different framework than I do. She has been immensely supportive of me getting into lolita, and complimented me of "getting good at it so fast" or "never having an ita-phase" and jokingly "surpassing her so fast!" I laugh it off, but it is bothering me. Is money the whole question? Will it matter?

I don't know, I might just be rambling. Thanks for listening.

Another girl called me cute today.

I don't know when I got so twisted but this short comment feels more important than any other compliment I've gotten lately.

My friends call me cute from time to time. My boyfriend basically showers me in the sappy stuff when we're together. But all of their words are discarded and trumped by my own self doubt. They only say that because they like me. They only say that because they know me.

This girl who could mention this after the short span of five minutes we had been talking mattered more. It mattered because she didn't know me. The simple, short reassurance of a stranger sticks to me and leaves a mark. She found me cute.

I don't want to think that I distrust my friends and loved one. If only this was an issue of me being insecure about my first impression on others.

But I feel deeply guilty about fussing so much over her one compliment compared to their mountains of love. I'm so sorry.

>been going to cons since I was a wee weeb
>used to get so excited to cosplay
>used to love going to cons more than anything else

Fast forward to now:
>am now "adult"
>still regularly attend cons
>still cosplay and do all the things
>just don't get the same feelings anymore

I guess it doesn't sound like a lot but it's honestly really bumming me out. And it makes it feel like it's just harder to enjoy things in general since I don't have that thing that I love anymore. Is this just growing up?

I feel so lonely.
As an aspie I never was bothered by loneliness, plus, relationships scares me (lots of stress, the only real relationship i had was abusive,...) and i wouldn't be able to handle one.

I'm growing scared to end up alone. I'm only 20 and I have time, I know, but lately I'm feeling so lonely. I just need a hug. I want to be loved. I'm feeling so lost. I don't fall in love easily at all either and have a pretty low sex drive so I'm beginning to wonder if I'll really be alone forever.
I know there are plenty other lesbeans and aspies in the world yet i feel so alone.

>tfw hug my second pillow and put my human sized teddy bear's paw on my head to feel as if i was being cuddled
i'm pathetic
