Several weeks ago my cousin gave me $20 to eat a heaping spoonful of my dog’s food. I pretended to be utterly disgusted by it, but I actually really enjoyed the taste. Since then I’ve been sneaking handfuls of it out of the pantry and making sure none of my roommates catch me, and proceeding to eat it like candy. I can’t help myself, I actually crave it like an addiction.

The sad thing is that nobody would ever guess this about me, a tiny Asian girl who wears sweet lolita and cosplays loli characters. I’m afraid of someone ever finding out, they’ll never look at me the same.

I’m not even trolling or joking right now, this is dead serious.

Fatties with cute faces are uglier to me than ugly fatties. They look like someone pumped a cute girl full of air, or like the Michelin man with makeup on. It irritates me for days if I see a morbidly obese chick making a 'kawaii' face or pose and acting like they're a delicate little flower. Of all the fat girls I've ever known, especially in Lolita, they all think they're made of porcelain and seeing them attempt to act dainty is just sad. I feel horrible about it, because even if I like their personality, a small part of me still seethes when they act like that.

Huh, I've never tried Pinnacle. Just be careful and take some vitamins to make sure your immune system stays tip-top, the cleanliness standards for dog food manufacturing are ridiculously lax and you're putting yourself at risk for lots of nasty bacteria. You may also want to take a good hard look at your diet too, if you're craving the dog food this much you might be missing something else that your body doesn't know how else to ask for except reminding you of the thing you've had most recently that had that missing nutrition in it.

Oh man, this is great. I used to eat cat crunchies and the red berry bits in my hamster's food a few years back. It's like we're all coming outta the woodwork, pet food gourmets unite.

Totally with you on the plastered tardises thing, not to mention the red makes them look like regular/retro phone boxes which i think is gonna irk other Brit lolitas. The modern night skyline thing is just gorgeous. I love the idea of a futuristic skylinexlolita so much, it makes me want to rip off their design and replace it with something more blade runner-like.

My boyfriend just proposed to me and I'm starting to regret saying yes.

We met online 5 years ago, I was always open to webcamming and showing my face. He only showed me photos. We talked every day and he was the only person I could be open with about my lolita/cosplay hobbies. We finally met in person a year later... He didn't look anything like his photo at all - he was sending me photos of his older brother.

I'm physically attracted to his brother but I would never be interested in him because of his personality being the complete opposite of my boyfriend... not to mention him being a complete asshole and making fun of us for liking anime. But every now and then when we're having sex his brother's face pops up in my head. I'm trying to rationalize and defend myself because I was fantasizing/having cyber sex with his face for a year... makes sense, right??

Neither of us has brought up the brother-photo incident.

I love my boyfriend. It was his personality that I fell in love with. We've lived together for 3 years and I couldn't imagine having a life without him. But I'm getting cold feet about marriage and I feel like shit

/cgl/'s part in this realization was showing me that more often than not these kinds of people are just parasites looking to ride off of someone else's coattails rather than actual mutual kinship. I know stating that makes me sounds like a cynical jackass but at this point I am too happy with where I am now to really care anymore.

Christ anon, if you're having second thoughts now, better to address it as soon as possible, not several years down the line when you're already married and the whole thing has made you bitter and twisted.

You'll continue to feel like shit until you're actually honest with yourself about what you want. It is possible to love someone and not be physically attracted to them, your boyfriend also fucked things up when he engineered things so that you ended up equating the personality you love with his brother's face. You need to talk about this and he has to take responsibility for using such an embarrassing and dishonest 'foot in the door' technique when you first started communicating.

To the people who eat pet food: please don't do it! It is not healthy even for the pets becaus of sugar and chemical aroma. That's propably the reason why you craving for it. Cat food also contains taurin whoch you can find in energy drinks&co.

My secret is, that I'm craving for a lolita girlfriend (I'm not into dykes). It's worse because I have a boyfriend for many years now but I miss the times having good sex with girls who did understand me a lot more.

My confession is I have pretty irrational feelings.

Recently, a "before Lolita" acquaintance (friends of friends) joined my FB comm, even though she doesn't live near the comm's location. She's been in lolita forever, and I've barely started.

I wanted to organically grow as a lolita, and be able to make a few mistakes, but she dresses so well I just feel so much pressure. I wanted to do lolita as something new for me to meet new people to enjoy something different and just for me,
and her being there feels so intrusive. We aren't close enough that I can ask her questions, but I have so much pride that I don't want her to see me as I stumble around with my "baby's first coords", or see what my first purchases are.

I'm having a hard time explaining my feelings, but I wanted lolita to feel like an exciting adventure, and her being there just kills it. I know I'm being crazy, thinking "THIS IS MY COMM, GO AWAY!!" with people I've met like twice, but I hate it.

No. It's simply not worth it. The money they get a night is indeed huge, but that's also because of the things they're risking, sometimes it could even cost them their lives. Most of the johns who go for escort services are often married men or creeps, these are guys who want to do things they can't do with their wives, and that's never a good thing. Another thing is that this is one business you cannot run totally on your own, this is why escorts have pimps, and remember to get them to work with you, that's a huge percentage of what you get going to them too.

Stalk their facebook page, months back,

I do this too and I've learned that it's really poisonous habit. Whenever I'd feel upset I'd just stop talking to everyone and wait for them to come to me, which they never would. So I'd end up hating myself more and acting passive-aggressive towards my friends for not caring about me or my state of mind. I end up being more and more miserable and my friends would never know about it because they just thought I'm busy or something, or even worse losing interest in them so they didn't want to bother me.

I realized how fucked up this is after another friend of mine played these mind games to test her friends (basically do they initiate a conversation if she's silent). I still do it to some extent though because I really would love to hear ONE time someone ask me if I'm all right.

I don't actually cosplay and have never been to a con.

In fact I'm a complete shut in and I spend most of my days filling the empty void by going onto various boards and pretending to have certain hobbies. After awhile I can almost convince myself that I lead a somewhat normal life with my own hobbies and tastes.

My ex's girlfriend got into lolita and I feel like it was because she was jealous of how cute I am and how manfaced she is.
I quit lolita because I didn't want anything to do with her, and I'm now into mori.
She literally only bought one bodyline outfit before she started going to meets, she befriended everyone I'm on bad terms with and just fucked with my one happiness outlet.

I pawned her diamond necklace I found in my then-boyfriend but apparently her boyfriend too's bed and sold off all my lolita because it made me feel better at the time.

Now she's into gyaru and she'll be marrying him soon.

A year ago my ex ended our relationship and got together with a really good friend of mine right after.
They're no longer together and the friend/ex of my ex has deleted all traces of their existence ever since realising how shitty it was to make that sort of move.
My ex would mentally abuse me while we were together, always asking if it was ok to fuck around with other girls while I was and wasn't there, telling me that if I didn't want him to be rough with me in bed then we couldn't be together, if I didn't want to go to the rave with him then we couldn't be together, he always made one excuse after another for why we couldn't be a couple all the while telling me that he definitely loved me and really wanted to be with me.
He completely broke me down and I ended up attempting suicide a couple of times after the breakup due to his behavior.
The girl he scored with right after was everything he hated in terms of the shit he had filled me with which only made it even more of an insult. Today he hates me and most likely blames me for everyone hating him and for his girlfriend leaving him.

My confession isn't cosplay related but I really wish he and I could be good friends again. I don't even care if it means that he has to fake it and only pretend to give a fuck about me, a lot of the things he did fucked me up but most of the time with him was some of the best I've ever had with anyone. I really wish things wasn't this awful and that he hadn't turned out to be such a terrible person. I've just been missing him a lot as stupid as I sound.

We made up after his girlfriend broke up with him, but he still ignores me 99% of the time I try talking to him, when I ask if he has a problem with me all I get is "no." and then he goes back to ignoring anything I say to him.
He insists we're friends but act nothing like it. I just can't get myself to remove him from my life.
We still go to all of the same events and the community isn't very big. Last event we were both at, we crashed into each other multiple times a day all weekend and it completely ruined that event for me. I just don't want things to be that way, I miss him immensely and I really just wish we could go back to at least just talking to each other again. All of the drama happened so long ago now but for the last few days I've had to hold back tears since it's all just come back to me recently.

If you only know the terms from porn, that makes sense. Is English not your native language, anon?

she-males as a word is usually limited to porn, people prefer to be referred to as trans when discussing gender transitions, but usually people individually prefer to be referred to as the gender they are trying to portray, like your friend.

Dick girls usually refer to a magical creature that is a girl who has somehow grown a dick. They don't exist in real life. For more information, visit >>>/d/

Dyke is a slur used to refer specifically to butch or masculine lesbians, though some people stretch it to apply to all lesbians. It is usually not a polite term, but some lesbians refer to each other as dykes. The other anon was calling you masculine.

Ladyboy usually specifically refers to (young) men who dress up like women and look like women, but they do it because it is fun or they are turned on by it, and not because they feel their gender is incorrect.

Can any Tumblrinas correct my definitions?

"is English not your native language" - wow dude, I'm not sure if you're being sneakily condescending or just unable to see things from a different point of view.

This anon has said nothing to warrant a vocabulary lesson. A lot of these terms are quite modern and the definitions themselves still relatively elastic. You've also got to take into account that this is /cgl/, not a "trigger safe" (or whatever tumblr people call it) zone, and none of her points were at all trans/homophobic to start with, and she even identified herself as quite fluid in her understanding and appreciation of gender.

I swear, all you people who try to stick rigid labels on things are at times as bad as those who discriminate based on gender/preconceived ideas. Anyone sensible would ask a person they encounter how they wished to be addressed or referred to if they were unsure. Past that, it doesn't really matter.

The issue is when we ask people to stop using the term and they retort with shit like "stop being so focused on labels it's just porn I don't know what else to call them". Transwomen aren't shemales, theyre transgendered women. Regardless of whether they've gone through with surgery or not.

As for the fact that it's used in porn...
See, I totally get that it's a kink, I don't have an issue with the fact that people get off to the thought of a girl with a dick. Now the porn industry is totally debatable on a whole other level and this isn't the place for that discussion and honestly I'm not even involved enough to say anything about it. But I would really appreciate it if we could call trans people for what we are, not for what we may or may not have between our legs.

>>7659334
Actually, I'm just a transperson trying to live a normal life without feeling like the only reason anyone might be cool with my existance is because I make porn.


Back to the topic, though:
I always feel so guilty when I want to crossplay, because I have issues passing as is along with people taking it on them to policy who is "really" trans and who isn't. So crossplaying really doesn't help the situation. Thing is I don't really feel dysphoria in cosplay because I'm another character and not myself, which just makes me feel even guiltier even when I can't bring myself to cross dress outside of cosplay. Still, feels bad man. I just want to pay homage to my favourite characters without having to worry about it too much. As is now I do genderbends but it feels lazy.

I also secretly think I am the most canon cosplay of one particular character, but I'd never say that out loud.

They are good friends as long as "fat shaming" and criticism of outfits don't come into play. We have normal interactions of daily life.

I wouldn't want to sell prints or start kickstarters or anything; I'd just genuinely like to be known and, preferably, liked in the community and, yes, honestly, have attention, but not for my body. Maybe someday.

Yep i was just about to say that. What you want is not lolita. Its cool to use your clothing however you want. Go ahead and wear it in public. But the lolita communites are lolita communities and you can't expect them to accept you with open arms if you arent doing the one thing a lolita is suppose to do: wear lolita fashion.

Lying to yourself is one of the easiest and worst mistakes a person can make (and I'm guilty of that sin). Unfortunately, it seems like your friends are reinforcing poor behavior and lifestyle choices, and you'll have to confront that sooner rather than later. From what you've said, they don't seem that bad of friends, and perhaps you should talk to them about critiquing your health and life choices because you want to live a healthier lifestyle. I wish you the best of luck!

fuck, this post. SO. MUCH. though tbh, I feel like guys in anime often suffer from lack of personality/really cliche personality stereotypes too. it's universal.

confession- I have only cosplayed a couple times, because I don't like having my picture taken and don't like fighting with weird garb/wigs/makeup all day when I'm trying to have fun at cons. I also don't wear anything cool fashion wise (jeans/tshirt/baggy sweaters every day) because I think I look too tryhard, and can't justify spending money on clothes past whatever I luck out and find at thrift shops.

But I love seeing cosplay, love living vicariously through progress threads, love planning exactly how I'd make such-and-such costume component. I love the frilliness of lolita and love that pastel goth/creepycute trend. So I keep coming back to this board.
So many saved pictures. So many unfufilled dreams.

You're not even addressing the issue in the first place, you just spiraled it around to make it all about you.

People here really don't give a fuck if you're trans. What they do care about: if you're annoying, self-obsessed, and causing drama by not admitting that yes, you were wrong to blindly call anyone who calls a girly male porn star a shemale transphobic. You didn't even understand what they meant! Jesus fuck, our community already gets enough hate without people acting like fucking retards. I've never met another openly trans person who wasn't a prick, an attention whore, or both. So far you're not looking to be an exception.

I eat the food that I like and I have a lazy lifestyle that I enjoy and I don't have any health issues that would be any cause for concern (My blood pressure and heart rate are both normal).

Exactly. I'm free to set my own terms and do as much or as little as I want, which is really nice. I'm on Angel Girl Studios, so I'd recommend that! The site looks a little sketchy tbh, but I had a good friend recommend it and it's very well run. I had an admin come in to make sure I was doing alright on my first day, you aren't obligated to do anything you aren't comfortable with, and you can block people that harass you or don't respect your limits. I haven't had any issues so far. You don't even have to get naked if you want- a lot of the guys on that site are lonely and just want to pretend they have a cute virtual girlfriend for an hour or two.

I don't mind but at the same time I'm not super comfortable with my body but thought it be fun to maybe boost some self esteem? I def change my appearance and usually look a lot different when all my make up and wigs are on.

incoming wall of text

I have a ton of friends who are cosplayers, and even though I try to support them, I think it's the dumbest fucking hobby in the world. I see them spending hundreds of dollars and wasting countless hours making costumes they only wear a handful of times a year. I'm starting to shit-talk them hardcore, especially when they start crying about having no money for food and say they had to borrow money for rent, etc.
I would almost feel bad, until I try to talk to some of them about the things that are going on my life, and then they're like, "yeah thats nice..." and just go right back to talking about cosplay-related fuckery. I dunno if i can handle this shit for much longer. what hits me the hardest is the fact that they bitch privately about other people in the community constantly, yet follow all of their social media accounts of these people they apparently "hate" and then act like tryhard faggots to them, since they think it'll get them noticed in the community because somehow that's important?
I want to stay friends with these people because they do have great qualities underneath all the cosplay slime, and some of them I've known for so many years, but the shitty change in attitude is just leaving me feeling lost and unsure of what to do.

I have a weird as fuck social phobia. Like, I can go out, but I always get tired really quickly and only sometimes do I worry about whether or not people are talking about me/staring.
I also tend to not talk to friends at all. Like, I consider them my good friends, but I don't txt them or pm them or anything unless they start the conversation. And I feel really lonely too. I wish I could talk with them 24/7 and visit them (my only good friends live 2 hours or more away) but I always feel like I'm annoying them or I run out of things to talk about and don't reply back.

Another thing is that there's this semi-annoying girl that lives right down the street from me, and I can call her a friend, but she's not really a friend to me. I lie to her all the time about being busy and pretend that my phone isn't working when she calls. I mean, she's nice, and pretty much the only person near me with similar interests, but she's a pathological liar, requires a LOT of energy to be around, obvious weeb "i dun give a fuck about what the normies think!!1" attitude, and dumped her nice boyfriend (who paid to come to the states to see her like twice and was always really nice to her) for some other dude whom she had been fawning over for months.

I'm having second thoughts about a con I've been excited for, for over a year because my friend who is my kind of ex, is getting into a relationship with someone else and she's gonna be ditching me half the time to spend time with her. I don't want to go to a con alone because the thought of being alone in a crowd of people I don't know scares the shit out of me. But the hotel is already paid for on my moms credit card and we were stupid and accidentally booked a non-refundable hotel. She wants her girlfriend to stay in the hotel with us and I'm really fucking uncomfortable with that. I'm at a point where I don't even wanna go anymore and my depression is taking over my mindset when I think about it

There's a lot of truth to this. Cravings come usually from either a nutrient deficiency or an addiction. And considering kibble probably isn't physically addictive like let's say heroin, it's probably a lack of nutrients somewhere else in your diet.

Then again, if you grew up on Asian snacks, a pretty common theme is crunchy savory/salty seafood and meaty flavors. I can't see how kibble is too far from that. You're totally justified.

I might only be saying that because the more I think about it, the more I'd be willing to pay money to get this on video. For reasons.

All I want is one good girl friend. Friendships with guys always get weird and anyway, it's a totally different thing. I'm in my late 20s and I feel like I'm never gonna have a close friend again. I don't even know how to go about it. All my hobbies are reclusive and I'm hesitant to join any groups. I seldom go to social events but when I do I'm pretty outgoing and have no problem talking to other people. I just haven't made any meaningful connections. I don't care if they share my interests as long as they're down-to-earth and easy to get along with.

Worth a shot, at least.

Also, the words "never" and "ever" are way too distant for you to be using them. Especially when you're only in your late 20s. It's always hard to make a very close friend, but it's possible. My uncle once told me that most people get only one BEST friend (meaning, a person that they would kill and die for, that they are like brothers/sisters and would vouch for in any given situation), but that he was lucky enough to make 3.

It's possible to make more close friends, you just have to be selective. I wish you the best of luck.

A pretty good description of why people are friends are

I am the stereotypical "gets-along-better-with guys" but not by choice! Most of the time boys were looking for something more and it would end when I didn't want to go there.

i mean, everyone gets horny, fuck. but these guys are literal infants. they're so needy and openly incompetent about treating girls like people and not attainable commodities or their ticket to an active sex life, if they can only dupe us into catching feelings for them.
the ironic thing is, i get horny too and would probably do casual sex if guys didn't get super clingy and try to emotionally manipulate me. LOL

Broke up with my bf about 2 months ago because his life got a bit fucked over and he flirted with one of my friends when we were on break, also had "cheated" on me with other girls before in our relationship. (that being making out with them while drunk, and got a handjob from his ex)

Problem is I still kind of like him and he likes me too and it's all just really shitty, we agreed to get our shit together and maybe try going out with other people or whatever, but honestly I just want to be with him again and do all the stuff we did before.
I kind of want to reject him and tell him to stop flirting with me but I also just want to get together with him again, it's very conflicting.
