Same and I did sell most of it minus a couple prints I happened to really love. When I get the Honey Cake MTO I'm not sure if I'll keep it or sell it at a discounted price to those who missed it (and to undercut sleazy scalpers who may have ordered just to resell)

I hate that aspect of selling stuff. People act like you're a scalper if you don't sell things for half what you bought it or something. Everyone wants the deepest discounts but they sell their own damaged shit for more than my good quality items.

For me personally the feeling isn't so much insecurity as feeling disappointed when my wardrobe after a lot of effort was in a state that I was unhappy with. Since changing what and how I buy things and selling the things that weren't what I wanted I am much happier with my wardrobe.

I never used to feel this way but lately I've gotten into this mindset that every time I wear lolita I should come up with a new coord and take pictures for social media, or it's not worth it. It's also lead me to buy more and more stuff so I can keep making new coords and putting out content. I used to be happy wearing outfits I loved over and over, and I still like these outfits but it feels like if I can't post a picture of it I should just wear something else. It's exhausting and I really want to stop feeling this way but I don't know how. I don't want to simply stop having any online presence, but I wish it could become more fun again and less competitive.

You make your rules anon!
There's no way to change the rules of the game, but you can change your own outlook of how you want to play it. If you're talking about Instagram I recommend stories. Take a nice picture of you being happy in a re-worn coord, let it sit for 24 hours, and that's your presence. After that day of publication that story fades into your archive, where only you can go in and admire your smiling face. It's nowhere near as permanent as a post, and can therefore be treated more light heartedly. Pick. Coord you love, recreate it, tweak it, just get out there and find that spark of joy. Online presence is one thing, your happiness is another. Maybe detail shots, new pictures of the same coord in a new place, comparisons of then and now etc would be able to fill your need for "content" too?

Or just don't post. Try living a day without sharing publicly. Take a de-tox, meditate over happiness while you're all dressed up. Change your rules, and stick to them as long as you like!

It hasn't personally happened to me though I do get messages for really lowball offers on LM complaining about how expensive an item is from people who are either broke and want me to lower my price to accomodate them or are clearly still very young and don't realoze how much this fashion costs. Some people have gotten pissed at and attacked others just for selling stuff at a different price than they suggested in the price check thread. And in that thread there is a lot of arguing over value between anons who are more honest about what things are worth vs anons who either think you should sell everthing for super cheap or clearly want the item and are suggesting insanely low prices so they can get a deal on it. That's the impression those threads tend to leave on me anyway with all the arguing.

I sell all the time because I like to rotate my wardrobe and I rarely get this. Maybe it depends on your sub style though, like if it’s more common with sweet vs classic

>> No.10305973

>>10305972

I do feel like sweet is full of the "I'm special and unique and deserve what I want" type of people...it is already the style for most fatties (I was fat when I started wearing sweet too and later lost weight) who tend to be a bit spoiled or entitled at times (remember all those people whining about AP being elitist and bigoted for sizing, for not letting them wear taobao to brand tea parties, and for other stuff?). And in general younger people are often introduced to lolita via sweet so that lack of maturity shows in their expectations of price and of what other people should do for them.

I'm switching to almost exclusively old school and whenever I get around to listing my old sugary sweet stuff the people lamenting the price come out of the woodworks almost immediately. Especially APfags. My BABY items usually take longer to sell and have more reasonable buyers while AP stuff sells for more faster but I get more requests for a cheaper price even with offers set to no from people who are probably new/desperate.

>> No.10305977

>>10305918
Does your insta have a very strict format for coord pics? Like a clean background and the focus is only on the outfit? Those kinds of pics are nice and put the focus on the outfit, but can be limiting in alot of ways. Either you'll have to post less often (unless you have some kind of magical bottomless wardrobe) or change the format of your insta to include casual pics as well as proper coord pics. Maybe in more unique spots so there is still artistic interest other than your coord. If its not fun or sustainable to do what you're currently doing, you can always change things up! Do what makes you personally happy to look back on!

>> No.10305984

>>10305960
What the hell are you selling? I've been on LM for 4 years and have sold almost 200 items and never had people openly complaining that I overprice despite selling at the price I bought it for. Just offers that were too low for me 2 times but they just politely asked.
>Some people have gotten pissed at and attacked others just for selling stuff at a different price than they suggested in the price check thread
This is not what happened, they asked over several replies and suggestions and then just went with what they intended at the start and anons asked them why they asked in the first place (and thus clogging up the thread). But yeah, there was one shitposter who tried their hardest to derail with vendetta after that.
> who either think you should sell everthing for super cheap or clearly want the item and are suggesting insanely low prices so they can get a deal on it.
I have never seen completely unreasonable insanely cheap suggestions. Link them to me. Just because it's slightly too low for the one asking that doesn't mean those gulls aren't honest in what they think the item is worth.

>>10305961
Link the posts you mean because everytime these claims are made, I never see any proof. I did the same thing on LM and bst threads and never had or witnessed that problem. It honestly seems like all the crying about scalper accusations is overreacting or samefagging by the same 5 people at this point.

The cult around AP is interesting. I wonder why it's the brand most newfags seem to put in such high esteem? The designs aren't any more or less fetching than btssb (I'd even argue that baby>ap but really that's just my opinion).
Is it the lolita community as a whole that propagates this? Where do they get this strange ap obsession early on??

>>10305991

I prefer Meta to both (minus some of the weird random prints they should be ashamed of themselves for) but BABY is a close second for me. Their prints are the best to me and their fabrics I prefer much more. Can't say a lot about modern BABY though as I haven't bought new in a while. I think the popularity of certain styles of sweet is what makes people most interested in AP in the beginning and excited about buying it. Everyone has a preference and all of course but once I owned a few modern AP dresses I just became disenchanted with the hype. Anything chiffon I had bought released after MCD or HL was disappointing even if the prints were cute and I always felt AP sweet when not doing a sailor or school aesthetic frequently comes off as costumey for me compared to other brands.

>> No.10305998

unsure about newer prints but ap's older prints have more of the "kawaii" look that weebs tend to love. most older baby prints are still cute are a different style. i think it's doing better at capturing the aesthetic now than ap imo tho

>> No.10306002

>>10305998
This. AP has a more modern kawaii aesthetic which grabs your attention first. Then you start to notice Baby's more gentle storybook aesthetic. I also went for AP stuff first and then realized Baby (and IW) were doing more timeless illustrative work and gravitated in that direction.

If it is in as good condition as new then that doesn't matter so much. In general if they aren't trying to make more than they bought it for (including those fees). I don't really think any dress is worth more than retail but anons will pay $1K for puppet circus with some flaws.

This is why prescription drug addiction is a problem in our country. People trying to self diagnose and self medicate. I am depressed want to die anon and I've asked counselors about medication before but multiple professionals have told me most of my problems are trauma induced and medication would only serve to treat symptoms or cause adverse side effects. There are limited to no treatment options for my condition outside of emdr which usually works better for acute PTSD patients and not as well on c-PTSD and that requires being able to afford office visits to do and finding a professional who is qualified or trained in it. And then I have some depression and anxiety tacked onto all that that are kind of all just a part of the c-PTSD stuff and grief because of how much death and broken family relationships because of dangerous relatives that make me actually fear for my life are balled up into my situation.

I don't think cold medicine will do any more for me than a street drug would desu considering the root cause of my hopelessness is something that will never really go away even if I manage to treat the PTSD aspect and not have panic attacks or other emotional episodes in response to triggers.

Nayrt, their response may have been extra dumb but it is founded in some truth. Hydroxyzine is essentially benadryl but is used to treat some people with anxiety. It isn't going to help with your depression, but when out of hydroxyzine I will take a benadryl if my anxiety is high for some small relief (not two or three to larp as an addict) and anon is retarded to think it would help any more than that. And the whole bit they said about no side effects is also retarded, both medications can be very drying for your nasal cavities and lead to some ear, nose, and throat problems and while they arent habit forming you can build up tolerances. Here's hoping that anon succumbs to their stupidity soon.

But more to the point I'm sorry you're going through a tough time right now, I know it's hard to wanna fight through and keep going when it feels like all options are exhausted, but I hope the new year gives you some respite. Reach out to loved ones if you are able, seek some professional help (there are affordable options through private organizations, public services, and churches) and hang in there bud.

I am trying to plan a small Christmas/New Years meetup with a few lolitas I know. And again and again I hear the same: "Let's have a jsf meetup, not a lolita meetup, because we do not have lolita coat/boots!"

Now, I'm not talking newbies or teeenagers who have no money, these women are in lolita for years and are in their 20/30s. Why would you want to attend meetups for people who wear this specific fashion and yet don't buy actual weather appropriate clothes in this fashion?

I bought my only lolita coat and boots years ago, and it might not be the best decision financially, as I wear them only 3-4 times a year. But at least I am now prepared to wear lolita all year round without whining on how normie coat won't fit a petticoat.

I have absolutely no way to say anything to these girls without sounding mean and I don't want any conflict in a group. But this really grinds my gears. This and "Can we have a meetup without petticoats? It's too hot/cold/I don't like them!".

I'm the same exact way, anon. I've spent so much money on lolita that you'd think I'd have a large, wearable wardrobe at this point but I actually can't because all of my pieces are so mismatched in style, it's not "cohesive" at all. So I just stick to the same one or two coords per dress, and it takes a lot longer for me to be able to wear some of my main pieces since I literally have to buy or make the rest of the outfit to go with it. But at the same time, I don't want to stick to just one style or color. Because like you said, I love it all.
On a bit of an offside, I dislike when people look down on us for not being able to "commit" to a single style. I mean, yeah it's cool when you see someone who is really devoted to just one substyle, but I don't see why we need to limit ourselves if we want to wear more than that.

so gulls i never get to really treat myself, been through a lot and have depression etc. today i got a haircut with bday $ after almost a year of no upkeep. i was feeling okay with it. i told my friend and they asked to see it so i sent them a snap of the length of layers and my curtain bangs. i was wearing a mori-esque jacket i thrifted.

they said i looked snooty because my head was held high. :( this person has been a friend since we were kids but we’ve had our disagreements and they have bpd. this isn’t the first time they’ve called me snooty either. but it sucks because they look down on people and get jealous of coworkers. they do costuming/cosplay and art but i’m also an artist. people say i could make 100s of 1000s of dollars with my art. lately i’ve been feeling like they have been putting me down for years for their self interest maybe.. :(

That’s what people with bpd do. The worst most evil abusive person I’ve ever known had bpd and they used it as an excuse to continue abusing people for years. The best thing I ever did was cut them out of my life. And even that was hard to do because they stalked me and some friends for years afterward.

I’ve only met one person with bpd who genuinely cared and is tried to get better, but that seems pretty rare among people with bpd. Honestly it might be in your best interest to begin distancing yourself from them. That person having a mental illness does not give them an excuse to tear apart your mental health. Stay safe anon

Most of them probably only wear lolita a couple of times a year as more of a costume than a fashion so a lolita coat is too big of a commitment. I don’t wear full on lolita as often as I used to but bought an AatP coat that goes with my everyday more vintage-inspired wardrobe as well, so it was a great investment. However if someone’s lolita style is ott glitter pastel vomit and they only wear plain jeans and hoodies otherwise, a coat that clashes with 99% of their wardrobe and can only be worn like once a year will seem like a waste of money.

I don't wear lolita everyday too, as I mentioned in my post, yet I invested in a coat or boots.

>>a coat that clashes with 99% of their wardrobe and can only be worn like once a year will seem like a waste of money.

If you use this logic, isn't lolita/cosplay/any j-fashion a waste of money in itself? Hobbies are expensive, who would have thought. Why a lolita dress that you wear couple of times a year is less of a waste of money than a coat?

I could sorta understand this reasoning if they were more humble about it, but my pet peeve is people wanting to go to meetups with a certain dresscode but expecting people to change dresscode because they are too frugal to buy things fitting a dresscode AND weather.

If I were in similar situation I would either don't go to meetups or thrift myself a flared coat that accomodates petti and some passable normie boots. It wouldn't look good, but it'd work for the weather. I mean, you can always find a way, it's this sense of entitlement that bugs me.

That is not very nice of them. Even if your "friend" truly thought you looked snooty, they could have just kept that to themselves and focused on your hair like they should have. Maybe they don't understand they could be a little bit more considerate? Anyway, intentional or not, it's not cool to be treated like that by someone you considered a friend and it's understandable you feel hurt.

As for bpd, I too am familiar with it as my former best friend also had bpd. It's difficult to understand them at a lot of times. At some point my relationship with her started to get difficult cause of her behavior, I tried to be as understanding, tolerant and sympathetic as possible but there is only so much shit you can take iyswim. It literally drove me into a depression, so at some point I cut ties and that drastically improved my life. In the end, it is your life.

Most lolita coords look bad. Because of how flashy the style is, it has to be executed almost perfectly to look good instead of ridiculous.

It's also fine to acknowledge you don't like all lolita. Personally, I think even well-executed OTT coords look stupid, and I'd honestly prefer if that style of dress wasn't associated with what I wear (primarily gothic and solids), because it feels like they have very little in common aesthetically. Lolita is broad, and just because you like one aspect of the style doesn't mean you have to like all of it.

Filing is usually considered better than trimming and you can give them scratching posts and things that naturally file their claws to be less pointy without cutting them (which might still leave an edge to scratch stuff up like fabric anyway). Declawing is the inhumane and cruel thing people do to cats' claws. Filing is fine and trimming is as well as long as you are careful not to cut beyond the right area of the nail.

>> No.10308023

>>10308020
>Filing is better
Both are fine and have the same results if you aren’t an idiot. The difference is negligible since cats nails don’t work like people nails—they shed outer layers of their nail. Filing and trimming both have the exact same results physically and trimming can be cause less stress for the cat since it’s quicker.

Also if any anons are looking for alternatives, those little claw caps work pretty well too.

God just put the damn dress/blouse/skirt on, literally just move your arms and put it on you walnut. You are less a lolita than an actual cosplayer by your description, let that sink in. And you will never improve your situation if you just sit at home and wish you're one day ready to wear one of those dresses you spent thousands of dollars on. How do you think you even get to the point of having healthy relationships with other people without forcing yourself to get out? Hell, lolita is a A+ way to do that, since all kinds of people automatically approach you but you're just letting those chances and moments pass.

It never ceases to amuse me how often I see cosplayers fighting over petty things.
A friend of mine and her cosplay partner stopped talking because he didn't attend an event she invited him to. He said no beforehand (he wouldn't be able to go for some reason).

IMO it's insane how they could be friends for over a year and then they stop talking over such a trivial issue.

People get weird about weed in both directions. It's not a miracle substance, but it's also not destructive to most people and it has many legitimate medical applications which are borne out by peer-reviewed studies. I've grown up around a lot of doctors (medical family) and they say the same.

If a drug is an effective treatment for anxiety for 5/10 people and worsens it for 2/10 people, it's still a good thing to trial.

Weed causes psychosis in the same way that certain SSRIs "cause" mania. I.e., people with a predisposition towards either can have that triggered by starting the drug.

That doesn't mean SSRIs aren't a very useful treatment for many other people. You always have to take individual brain chemistry and genetic predisp. into account when you're prescribing anything.

Your "truth" is disproved by just as many medical articles as you could provide in favor. Actually most likely a lot more against it than for it, considering it's illegal. So basically, still dumbass advice to give legitimately sick people.

You're starting from the presupposition that the illegality is based on scientific research and not, say, moral panic or arbitrary copycat laws. However, it is in fact scientific research that's causing an increasing number of countries to legalize weed.
Alcohol is a good example of a drug that causes far more individual and social harm (and "kills brain cells", which you keep bringing up for some reason, even though breathing kills brain cells), but is legal.

I've been through such a rough life,and i'm still going through something,but during this decade where i've basically suffered all my teenagehood and now am into early adulthood at 21,lolita was there for me. And I just cried earlier holding one of my dresses because i love it so much, i hope someone will love me this way someday and that i can pour this love onto someone again (that won't be hurting me this time)

tl;dr- facebook

cof makes me super sad. like only 1/3 of the coords are even passable as lolita. I know we've been over this 1000 times but the group pretty exclusively praises people for looks that don't look lolita in the slightest, maybe inspired by it but definitely not lolita. I'm not even sure what the word means to them.

like, I sometimes wonder if they stumble upon the fashion through anime thinking that it's some kind of elaborate spoiled anime girl lifestyle roleplaying, and that any old pink knee length $20 amazon JSK and an office blouse will do. just slick your greasy no-bangs hair up in ageplay style pigtails, slap some dollar general kid's accessories on and call it a lewk

the advice groups make me even sadder. it's mainly perma itas and lolitas at heart giving excited, impressionable girls advice on how to look like, well, definitely not lolita- contributing to the number of non-lolita and ita looks we see in cof all day every day.

I don't think most people instinctively have an eye for the details like visual weight, color balance, fabric and laces etc. and I think it takes time to learn how these things work, but I don't think it's hard to notice when something looks off, even if you can't pinpoint what. and so these girls come to the group for advice, and they'll get some! from beautiful, experienced and talented lolitas, then turn around and get offended because it wasn't what they wanted to hear... then the luvlies swoop in and tell them what they really wanted to hear- "as long as you like what you're wearing that's all that matters uwu,"

(...like sure, wear what you want, but please for the love of god don't call it lolita and don't post it in cof!!!)

The AGP/sissies that infest our communities actually have the LOWEST murder rate of any demographic, lower even than regular men. They’re appropriating the statistics of poor street prostitutes of color to make themselves look like victims when they’re objectively not. An AGP/sissy is statistically more likely to commit murder than to be the victim of it, which worries me because my comm is full of very young naive girls who genuinely think that these men are safe to be around. Even after we’ve dealt with multiple AGP/sissies who sexually harassed and threatened violence towards comm members, including one who retaliated against being banned by spamming a thread with his disgusting sexual fantasies about girls in the comm, accusing them of pedophilia and incest. A lot of newer members aren’t aware of this history and now there are people in the comm who insist that AGP/sissies don’t even exist and that trying to protect ourselves against them is as bad as killing them. It’s literally insane and I’m really concerned for my community but can’t voice it anywhere except anonymously.

That kills brain cells. So no, it wasn't just about mental illness, it was a blanket statement about the perceived uselessness of weed. Probably some Chinese or Eurofag buying into their nation's anti-weed propaganda.

nta but I've had multiple doctors over my life say that if the weed is helping with my condition that it's an okay thing to do instead of medications that come with a plethora of fun side effects. I'll take the brain cell loss over extreme brain damage due to seizures any day.

Weed only causes psychosis in people who already have other conditions that predispose them to psychosis, just like how someone with dormant schizophrenia can take drugs and have that come out.

it's not a miracle cure, everyone has different brain chemistry and mental health backgrounds. But if you can make something work for your needs that's not "shit advice"

Fight on, sister! Don't let these druggies get to you. They're probably too high to even realize the bubble they're trapped in. You don't need drugs when you're already high on life!

Besides, did you know that weed (also known as "marijuana," [pronounced "Marry-jew-anna" as in Anne Frank because you light it on fire] which is Mexican for "rat poison!") has been shown to cause blindness in studies where they inject plant matter directly into the optic nerve of mice? Not only that, but did you know that 52% of all criminals arrested in 2010 used weed? Good people don't use weed, the numbers simply don't lie. Weed causes you to become a criminal because it lowers your IQ to the same level or lower as ethnically unique urban dwellers. Also please check out this blog post 6 pages into bing, it proves how bad weed is:
https://blog.sfgate.com/smellthetruth/2014/11/18/marijuana-kills-brain-cancer-new-study-confirms/

Not only does it kill the brain, but it also causes cancer.

Look, even if you're not a promiscuous woman, all men see drug use as a red flag of a whore. You will be actively hurting your chances of marriage. Or worse, you may end up doing so much weed that you develop nymphomania (studies show people with high drug use are more likely to have multiple sexual partners) and ruin your womb for life.

Furthermore, it is a woman's responsibility to not cause societal collapse.
