People pretty constantly assume my best mate and I are gay, which is actually really funny because it's gotten to the point where people are suprised to find we're not.

It's pretty funny because we live together at the moment, and I'm at university and do alot of the cooking and cleaning and he works. I was working before starting uni but. So it's like there is legit structure to our house ahah, but he's like heaps more flamboyant than me and I have a reputation for bein dumb.

Considering how close we are and the fact we joke about it, it's not hard to see why. But like even just situations man

>chatting with my mate while he does his hair and washes his face in bathroom before work

>asks me to get spiders out of kitchen

>bought me a shirt today as a gift

recently went to a party and people were giving me and him shit so I had a play fight with the hell tough dude there and I'm 67kg on a heavy day and he was about 110 and I did 5 rounds with him real good but that's only because I actually box at a competitive level. But yeah no-one gave us shit after that.

IT's not hard to see why people think we're gay though, at all.

>>7851777
Do your parents know you're gay?

I don't know if I'm sick or if my body is pissed off at me for not eating yesterday. Maybe I'm going into this too fast? I've already dropped 4 pounds in the last few days so I don't want to give up.

>>7851892
Yeah, you're a fucking moron. How about going for a run and eating healthy?

>>7851892
>pro-ana
You knew what you were getting yourself into, now you're sick and you're wondering why. Really? Lmao. Do you think anorexia makes you healthy?

>>7851895
I've known quite a few girls IRL who have never had a problem with it and live pretty decent lives being pro-ana so....

>>7851896
Who gives a shit about being healthy, though? Fit is gross, hungry skeleton honestly looks a lot better.

> be me
> be very thirsty
> no girl wants to quench my thirst
> mfw I am dying
> tfw when I reject girls that like me
> mfw I get rejected by girls I like

Fuck me... literaly

>>7851892
Dude you're sick because you stopped eating.

Your body can't fucntion without food. You need to eat. And now you need to start with things like crackers and plain white rice and shit because your poor stomach can't handle sugar-filled food like apples. Stop being stupid and lose weight the right way, or you'll starve yourself to death.

This is a cosplay and lolita feel thread, not the beta diaries. Back to your containment board >>>/r9k/

>>7851902
Coming from a diagnosed anorexic for the past 6 years, pro-anas don't even have real eating disorders most of the time. People who treat them like diets you choose to go on just really piss me the fuck off because real anorexia is absolute hell.

Have fun slowing the shit out of your metabolism, because if you think you can maintain your weight on a reasonable amount of calories after starving yourself (or just continue restricting and actually be able to function whatsoever, even if it means just being able to get out of bed), you're in for a surprise.

>>7851910
Be thirsty while cosplaying?

>>7851902
>Who gives a shit about being healthy, though?
You should you massive retard.
You're probably the same group who harps on fattie fats about not being healthy, yet we're supposed to be okay with you potentially creating money-sucking health problems for yourself and it's okay because 'kek at least ur thin'? Fit is amazing.
Guys love active girls with average to curvy weights. They don't enjoy hungry, narcissistic skeletons who are evidently too fucking stupid to eat if that means they can fit themselves into a weird dress that nobody gives a shit about.

Is this fucking b8? For real.

>>7851902
Hungry skeleton looks a lot better? I suppose you think dull skin, sunken eyes and brittle hair that falls out is attractive too, huh? Stop fucking glamorizing an eating disorder, you piece of shit.

>>7851892
It's about losing inches more so than losing weight, anon. You need to maintain a healthy diet and exercise at least 20-30 minutes a day 5x a week. It's a gradual process but you'll look and feel a lot better if you do this the right way. Anorexia is a horrible disorder. Don't let those thinspo blogs pollute your mind.

>>7851902
>>7851912
And one last thing: keep in mind that if you actually develop anorexia, you should prepare yourself for extreme hair loss/bald spots, lanugo (thick hair on your body), peeling skin, potential premature aging, and barely being able to go places because you'll faint outdoors.
I looked super kawaii when I was under 80lbs, not to mention how I was essentially bed-bound!

>>7851711
>someone selling twinkle journey jsk on lacemarket
>my dream dress
>been worn multiple times
>one of three bows is missing
>BIN is $500, auction starts at $450
I think losing one of the three main bows on the front is a considerable damage. Why do people think this is okay? $400 would be reasonable but really...

>>7851892
You're an idiot who's probably too lazy to exercise and thinks a one day fast will actually do anything. What a fucking joke.

I agree with the anons upthread, proana-chan. Being anorexic is horrible and it ruins your life.
At my lowest I was 75lbs. At my worst, I couldn't eat a single almond without throwing up until there was nothing left (and then continuing to gag for more after that). I had dug my own grave, and with the extreme fatigue and complete loss of willpower, I was ready to lay in it and die. It took my family literally force-feeding me to keep me alive.
I nearly failed school because I couldn't get out of bed in the mornings, and after I graduated I was only able to work at my job for under a year before I ended up collapsing in the middle of my shift. I had to quit because I didn't have the energy to stand, not even for the shortest shifts available, which were 4 hours.
When I started to eat and exercise, after three months I had put on 15lbs alone. I felt like shit but my family forced me through it, and here I am today: 90lbs on a good day, NEET, with just enough energy to exercise for 20 minutes, do some housework, and play vidya before falling asleep.
Don't do it to yourself, anon. It's not worth it. After you've fallen in, it's so hard to drag yourself back out. Two years and I'm still working on it.

>>7851892
All you lost weight-wise was water weight aka nothing significant.

>>7851941
The road to recovery is long and hard and even though I don't know you, I'm really proud that you're recovering. Stay strong!

>be two months ago

I want to die. I worked so hard to get were I was, both my wardrobe and my life and now I have nothing...

>>7851938
tbh that's how I feel about the chess chocolate jsk someone is trying to sell on there for $510 just because the headbow comes with it.
Western sellers are horribly unreasonable.

>>7851970
What a fucking idiot, I would have throttled her for doing something so idiotic and essentially ruining your life over her own carelessness.

>>7851970
And your community didn't set up a fund for you because....?
Usually people who lose absolutely EVERYTHING in fires get assistance.

>>7851979
I reacted pretty badly. Like ugly sobbing and swearing into my half burnt Melty Donut JSK. Worse thing of all, she stopped talking to me because the guilt was to much. I just don't understand...

>>7851991
I'd be expecting her at the very least to be paying you reparations for that bollocks, fucking hell. I know if I burnt down a house I was sharing with somebody along with all of their worldly possessions I wouldn't just have a whinge about it and ignore you for the rest of my life, I'd make it up to you and try to pay you back what little I could. Least you can fucking do like.

>>7851988
They did, but only help with donated clothes/food and a hotel for 2 weeks. I'm very thankful for all the help I got.

>>7851763
> Dads who buy shit quality things and feel proud of themselves because they don't know it's shit.

I know that feel anon. My dad does that sometimes. He's only trying to help, but still...

My feels:
> Buy lolita thinking that it'll at least have a good resale value if I don't want to keep it forever.
> Take extremely good care of skirt.
> Decide skirt doesn't fit direction wardrobe is heading.
> Go to sell skirt.
> No bites.
> Lower price drastically.
> No bites.
Maybe I have shit taste in designs? Idek. It's AatP, and I thought it looked nice. Maybe the fashion has changed a lot since I was last super active?
> feelsweirdman.jpg

I'm also the last poster on the last thread whining about SNK.
> Leave cosplay because Lolita feels so much easier.
> Really get into a manga by it's later chapters (felt pretty neutral about it in the beginning)
> Shit's the obnoxious NaruTaliaStuck of it's time
> Not sure if want to work hard and sew things only to be looked down on in the end.
> But why would I care if I'm enjoying myself?

>"I always knew you'd end up this way"

the hell is that supposed to mean

>>7852010
Holy shit. I am so sorry that you lost everything and that your roommate just up and vanished because they felt so guilty... That's terrible.

>parents hate lolita
>always asking what I got in the mail
>"oh just... some clothes."
>hide dresses in back of closet

>>7851970
I have the same paranoia about my male roommate starting a fire or some shit.
>male roomie is a complete dunce and is so obviously insecure about his intelligence
>does shit like leave lights on, stove burners, and forgets to do basic chores
>have to remind him of money when bills are due and he reluctantly tries to jew me by offering to buy me shitty campus food in exchange
It's like taking care of my own little toddler who thinks he knows everything. Except this toddler is an irresponsible adult who talks down to me like I'm the idiot. He's a smoker too, and one of these days I bet he'll forget to put out one of his cigarettes properly. I swear if he fucks up as bad as your roommate...

>>7852017
Thank you for your kindness. I don't wish this upon anyone. Ever. It's like looking into a mirror with a stranger looking back. But I'm learning from this and hopefully by my birthday I'll have a job.

>>7852025
How can you even stand living with this guy, anon?

>>7852025
I hope to jebus it never happens to you. Is it possible to force him to smoke outside? Or does he make excuses like my ex roommate?

"It's to cold"
"It's to hot"
"It's raining"
"What's the difference between my smoke and your flat iron?"
I want to hate her but I can't. I'm weak. My advice; don't take shit, make it clear that bad things happen and it's devastating.

>>7851970
consider getting insurance if you have a lot of valuable stuff in your appartment next time I guess..

>>7852060
He tends to smoke outside, but considering he hoards plates/trash in his room I wouldn't put it above him. Especially when winter comes.

I think what stops him is that there are smoke detectors everywhere. And he's not that clever to have covered them with plastic bags...yet. But like I said, it's going to get interesting in winter when the inside becomes more dry and there are more heat hazards to deal with.

>>7852079
This, I got renter's insurance even though I still live at home, it's like $10 extra per month.

It ended up being cheaper for me to get renter's + car insurance at my place than just car insurance because of a bundle discount.

>>7852014
You know what it means.

>>7852025
...holy fuck why do you live with this manchild?

>tfw when my fiance is actually way more useful around the apartment than I am

>>7852117
>that feel when when

>>7852025
It's a long shot but are you living in Montreal ? Because this sound strangely familiar.

>>7852120
Nah, but it doesn't surprise me that guys like this are everywhere.

He unironically calls himself a "man of science" just because his major is exercise science and he's currently taking an intro chemistry course. I could go on and on, but some of the sexist/condescending bullshit he says really grinds my gears.

>>7852130
God I hate people who think that intelligence stop to grades. Good luck anon, and may you find a better roommate.

>>7852119
God dammit I didn't even notice. Thanks, anon hahahha

>>7852130
>>7852132

Ugh, I hate it when people take -one- intro class in their major and they act like they're suddenly an EXPERT on all things psych, scientific, historical, etc.

>Tbh it's how I was after taking one sociology class
>Then a semester later I realized I didn't know shit haha

>>7852153
As a person who got their degree in the arts, I'm starting to get used to the bullshit I hear from people who can't shut up about a few stem-related classes they've taken and how I must be some sort of tard for not having expertise in those areas.

Most of these people also can't write an error-free five page paper in their native language for shit. Talk about pathetic.

>local lolita comm is pretty much dead

>bf and I have talked about it and have worked out that if we go back to our families, we'll save up what we were paying in rent and move a few hours away next summer
>mfw the place we're moving is only two hours away from my dream comm

>>7852163
To be fair, intelligence can be measured in different ways. The people you know who give you shit sound like assholes. I just got my BA and my friends who excel at bio, cs, and the like never ridiculed me for my major. They admitted that writing was difficult for them just as I admitted that upper level chemistry and calculus were daunting for me.

That feel when you're really sick of seeing the same ugly looking armor cosplay at every con you go to.

That feel when everywhere you turn there's "armored version of X character".

That feel when mediocre Worbla armor is seemingly the "in" thing right now in your community.

Startin' to get pretty fuckin' bland.

That being said, I'm not denying that there are some talented armor cosplayers out there (I love me armor cosplay), but come on. These try-hard armor girls are getting ridiculous.

>>7852018
I know that feel anon. It's created such a strain on me that even now that I've moved out I'm too afraid to show anyone my dresses. I'm incredibly intimidated by the judgmental looks I think I will get when they ask how much I spent on them lol. I've gotten better about it, though.

>mfw I'm >>7852179 and may have to move back in with parents and deal with it again
>if it happens, time to rent a PO box

>>7852197
I don't even buy burando, I get cheap Taobao shit.

My mom just hates anything that isn't normal.

My dad almost shit himself when I told him how much I was paying for a room for Katsucon (even though I'm splitting the cost, so it's only like $200 per person for the whole weekend)

>Be genderfluid brolita
>Start crossdressing at about 12
>Mom and Stepdad scare the shit out of me when they find out
>Be age 22, worked shit out in college, now I'm a healthy, confident crossdresser
>Decide to go totally public on National Coming Out Day
>Tell mother in advance
>She is totally accepting and we spend most of the afternoon looking at dress patterns
>She agrees to alter my dresses to fit me, tells me she might make me one
>So happy

Honestly, my dream dress is any one made by my mother. She's a wonderful professional seamstress and she always offered to make my sister dresses. The only thing I've ever really wanted from her is to wear a dress that she made for me. Dream come true! Now to wait for the 11th to tell the rest of the family.

>>7851711
>About to take pet to vet
>Still not sure if she just has a minor injury or if it's something serious (e.g. neurological and possibly fatal)
>Literally in tears as I type this. I love her more than I love pretty much anyone or anything else.

Sage for not cgl related, but fuck, y'all.
I really want her to be okay.

>>7852209
Are you Hedgie anon?

Pls report back, I want to know if she's gonna be okay :c

>>7852216
Yep, that's me. Will do and thank you very much for the concern.

>>7851743
That's kind of hilarious.

>>7852018
My parents did this shit to me all the time when I still lived at home.
And because I'm so paranoid about my shit being stolen or accidentally taken (I live in an apartment complex) I haven't had a change of address.

So whenever I get a package now they assume I must be wasting an obscene amount of money for "shit from China."
I'm fucking 23 and going to school with a job and they talk down to me like a damn 16 year old.
>"We don't want to see you buying shit from China anymore anon."
>mfw they're so fucking stereotypically white they assume the writing on the package is Chinese despite me ordering quality goods from Japan and Korea
I wouldn't have as much beef if they didn't buy their cheap shit from Wal-Mart, or their inexpensive, ugly clothes that show signs of wear after only a month. It's so frustrating.

>>7852190
>try hard armor girls are getting ridiculous
While I can relate, I think it's far more common to see guys who THINK they can make armor-- but it really looks like unfinished, chipping bullshit.
See, for example, almost any spartan armor or Iron man suit.
They think that once they get the basic shape right and shoddily painted they'll get attention because "Zomg armor!!" when in reality it's just kind of awkward to look at.

>>7852209
Muh animal feels
>previously complain about cat that sits outside of work
>animal control doesn't do anything about it because it technically has an owner (who already has 10 or some shit)
>landlord and other tenants says they don't give a crap if someone takes it away
>follows me to my car every night if I try to make contact with it
>co-workers keep asking me if I'm going to take her home

I don't really want a cat but I know it'd be in a 10x better place if I took it away. I'm probably going to call a local cat shelter to see if they can host her.

>>7851892
>vomiting
>look guys I lost 4 pounds in such a short time!
Anon u dum.

>>7852025
My mother is like this and I'm constantly surprised that she (and I, as her child) managed to survive this long. Thankfully she isn't a smoker, but...
>never closes anything properly
>food containers, doors (including the front door and the door of the fridge) everything just flapping in the wind
>still consumes these food products even if they've obviously gone bad
>often leaves gas on
>sometimes accidentally throws out my unread mail because she "thought it was old!" no matter that she herself brought it in that morning and it was still unopened
etc.
She's also extremely insecure so any kind of suggestion that maybe could she close the fridge door before going upstairs upsets her. On the one hand I'm glad that I moved out and don't have to deal with this shit anymore, but on the other hand I worry that she won't survive very long without me.

>>7852182
>science major
>can't write
Anon I'm sure your friends are wonderful lovely people but I hate their fucking guts. I'm currently the only grad student at my lab who can write for shit which means that EVERYONE dumps their writing on me so that I can play editor. I spend more time trying to decipher their gibberish than I do on my own papers. They won't compensate me for it because it's not in my job description and they won't hire an actual editor because they've got me, and I work for free! I'm not even that good at it, I just managed to not get stuck at grade school level English or fucking text speak. I should really stop helping them but I can't stand their whining when their papers keep getting rejected.
Seriously though, some of these fucking texts. If it weren't for the content I'd think they were written by actual 13-year-olds. Yet none of these people are dyslexic.

>>7852216

Hedgie anon reporting in. Vet says it doesn't appear to be a neurological problem and that it looks like a minor injury that she's recovering from.

>Tears of joy
>Don't even care that I'm out $50 for the trip

Pic related--it's my little nugget, happy to be home. Sage for not cgl related~

>>7852451
So glad your hedgie is okay, anon! She's adorable by the way.

If you want to be a cosplayer, but can't sew a simple circle skirt, maybe cosplay isn't the right hobby for you.

>>7852542
>ignoring the fact that many cosplayers can just buy or commission their cosplays

>>7852451
Aww what a cutie! I'm glad she's okay, couldn't imagine what I'd do if I lost my two QTs. Pic related, one of my QTs.

Sage for no contribution

>>7852542
Sorry this was me venting about someone who specifically looks down on people who buy/commission from people.
She's been going on and on about different cosplays that she wants to "pattern out" but she can't even do this, so I'm having a hard time believing she can do anything beyond it.

>>7851755
It almost fits on the jnig thread

I can't wait until steampunk fucking dies in a metallic spraypaint induced fire. You added brown and poorly applied gewgaws to poorly sewn faux historical clothing. OMFG SO CREATIVE.

>>7852451

My husband just raved at me about divorce for an hour because he found my stash of Game Grumps fanfiction when he was using my computer.

I don't think I even care anymore.
I just want to fuck&also maybe have a meaningful relationship with a guy who I can play video games with and laugh together.
Husband won't even play Mario Party with me because, quote him, "It's stupid", then goes into our room to play "Clash of Clans."

fml.

Post it to the game grumps subreddit, I dare you. Write one that's a threesome with Suzy, and I'd read that.

>>7852750
It's my guilty pleasure.
I keep it all to myself and I couldn't bear to post it anywhere because:
A. they're real people, so it'd feel wrong
B. Arin and Suzy are happily and adorably married
C. As I understand, Dan is not cool with fanfiction.
D. Countless other reasons.

I dunno.

I already feel like a creepy perv for having saved and written volumes, but, like I said, it's a "guilty pleasure" for a reason.

So I'll pass on that.
Seems like YOU need to keep your guilty pleasures under control too, ya' nasty 3some-lovin' pervert.

>try desperately to like crystal because friends rave about it
>don't even have a problem with the animation
>just that the characters are so expressionless and flat
>characters seem like adult aliens and not like young people they're supposed to portray
>feels like they were too busy trying to keep the characters looking ethereal instead of giving them soul like in the original

I can't force myself to watch full episodes. I often open up another browser and lose a good chunk of the dialogue. I don't think I'm missing much.

>>7852787
they were fairly soulless and ethereal in the manga.

the 90s anime was completely bonkers and only in tune with other animation around that time.

>>7852791
It simply doesn't translate well to animation and I'm just saying it wasn't the best decision for aesthetic context. It's awful.

>>7852796
to each their own i guess. I really like crystal, shitty animation aside. I was super nostalgic about the 90s anime and seeing crystal at the mangas pace is pretty nice.

>>7852801
The show has given me a few wtf moments (example: why didn't Usagi change back into her ball gown and fall asleep as Sailor Moon? And later, when she fell asleep as Sailor Moon again, why did she wake up in her uniform?), but I'm enjoying it overall. The animation flubs are hilariously bad but don't ruin my enjoyment if I don't think about them until after I've done my first watch through.

>>7852249
Yeah I can agree with the try-hard guys as well.
I guess I shoulda specified that this is in my cosplay community.
There are quite a few chicks with no skills here that know they'll get attention for armor cosplay. They buy some worbla, make a skimpy breaskplate, paint it shittily, and parade around in their "armor" acting as if they're the next Kamui or Jessica Nigri while new cosplayers and normies kiss their asses.

>>7852787
>>7852791
>>7852796
>>7852801

The animation is being reworked for past and future episodes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1Nlp4tkfXk

>>7852858
Yep. I saw the side by side comparisons that were up on /a/ during the airing of the last episode. Most look better (particularly on the depth of the eyes), but there are a few that still make me wonder wtf they're doing, and how they actually made the art even worse.

>>7852787
I gave up after episode 2. My only hope is that it will get the artbooks reprinted officially in at least one country.

I just found out Jessica got kicked out of SNSD.

She was my third favorite, too. I normally don't give a fuck about celeb news, but goddamn does it eat me up knowing that I'll never know how or why it went down.

>>7852744
Did he not know you liked gay porn ahead of time?

I'm always worried if I should bring this up in a relationship. Not like I want him to do anything, but just let him not find out the hard way.

>>7852898
I know this feel. I heard that she said on her weibo that she was going to do solo stuff now but...who knows? I'm still sad about it.

>>7852898

this news has been bothering me for days and the confusion is eating me up
i fell for soshibond

>>7852903
wat

I was talking about straightsmut fics and shit.

I don't know if that's worse.

>>7852898
I feel you, Sica was probably my favorite, at least personality-wise. Never seemed to front on camera. Apparently they kicked her out because she signed with a new fashion label, and they basically said, 'them or us' which is pretty cunty. Also, theres a few reports of the other girls ganging up to kick her out, but could be true, could be bullshit.

At least we can look forward to her solo career ...;_;

>>7852918
>signed with a new fashion label
close, but not quite. it's a lot bigger than that. we're talking starting her own business, her own fashion brand. creating a life for herself outside gg and making her dream come true. it's a huge venture that could certainly lead to problems juggling gg duties, which might be the center of the conflict. she's pretty ambitious.
i've heard that her business might also interfere with the group's CF offers, but not 100% sure of the deets.

good luck anon

>>7852979
my super pale friend was really happy with hers too! A lot of people write off asian BB creams as being too yellow toned on light people and too ashy on dark people, but they actually do have a good range of cool, pink and yellow toned shades for each light/dark.

>>7852778
You fanfic writers make me so confused about my life and my choices. Me:
> Writing fanfic of real people is wrong! Especially if they say they don't like it!
> Oooo, a new GG fanfic~
I even want to read yours now. I'm just so innately curious about them. I feel like if I were to become well-known, I'd love it if people wrote fanfics of me. I'd probably even ask them to send it to me. Rule34 pics too, I'd love it.

>>7852996
There's obv a lot more problems there, but he's just super self-centered at this point, so it's hard to get him to do stuff with me because he "just doesn't want to" and he just "knows he wouldn't like it".

I married him because I thought he would be a good life partner. Turns out, he admitted to me that he'd rather not be tied down.

It's kinda' shitty. But whatever. That's life.

>>7853010
Holy shit, same boat.

>I am a good fan, and I will respect their wishes to not post fanfics and smut!
>rabidly find and eat up fanfics
>have my own collection of fics
>feel guily, but fffffffffff

I do game streams with my brother, so any fanfiction about me/us would probably incest.
Uncomfortable.
So I totally understand other people's feelings about that shit.

>>7853013
woah.
this marriage sounds wrecked. you guys need to get counselling asap because life is too fucking short for angry bullshit and a permanent state of resentment. Even if interests drift apart there's no excuse for empathy to be -that- far down the shitter for either partner, especially for a couple so young.

>>7853017
I don't know if I'd ever be creeped out, really. Maybe if it was a self-insert but I'd probably just read it to laugh.
I think what intrigues me about it is being able to see my perspective, but written by somebody else. What do they think my thoughts sound like? What do they think I do in private? What do they think my relationships with other people are like, or what I might find interesting or attractive in another person?
But I understand GG's feelings on it, especially for poor Suzy who's always treated like the unwanted extra since most fics are ArinxDanny. So much unwarranted Suzy hate just because she's married to Arin and is CLEARLY just cockblocking all the fun smexy yaoi tiems ^ w ^

>>7853013
Just curious, but how long were you two together before you got married? It really sucks that he ended up that way but like the other anon said, life is too short to have to settle for that. Stand up for yourself and your happiness.

>>7853013
Whooooa, y'all need to sort some shit out. I feel really bad that you're with someone who evidently doesn't respect your relationship, and obviously I know nothing about you or your situation, but I really think you should try some counseling or something? That doesn't sound like a healthy environment for you, at all...

>>7853021
Unfortunetly, we have a deeper history, involving him being an alcoholic, be having to bail him out multiple times, him finally drunk driving and totaling my car, me actually having to bail him out from another country..

I think my resentment from all he's put me through has just reached a pinnacle to the point where I just can't care about him or what he does anymore.
I can't cry over him anymore, I can't take what he says seriously anymore.
He's gotten me into debt, he's fucked up my self-esteem, and it's gotten to the point where I have had to force myself not to care just to salvage what was left of my own well-being.

Sorry, sweets, but we've done counselling, and shit only works when both people work to make it work. I'm doing everything I can, but he's balking, and there's really nothing I can do to stop it.

He can get into another lonely wreck all by himself. I literally just can't care anymore.

/sage for ranting&shit

>>7851892
>pro-ana

>>7853035
I'm so sorry for your situation, anon. I hope it turns around for you, you deserve to be happy and this guy is clearly a pile of shit.

>>7853035
I wish you the best and I hope that you're able to get out of this situation as soon as possible. You deserve so much better and I hope you realize that you're worth sooo much more than he's trying to make you feel.

>>7853040
Man, it's cool.

I'm not hurting anymore. Lonely, but not actively hurting.

I'm chill as shit, and I've had other married dudes tell me that they wished their wives were as cool as I am.
I did my best to be a good wife, but it's just time to let go soon.
I barely ever yell or lose my temper, I'm supportive, I mediate issues, I tell him what's wrong when I'm feeling bad and also give suggestions on how to fix it ["I just need a cuddle, hun!"], but, as of late especially, he has refused.

Sad thing is, divorce is expensive. So maybe someday.

Don't feel bad for me, anons. srsly. I L-word you guys.

>>7852930
This. With all she will have going on with managing her own business, there would be know way she could realistically stay and promote with the group. Besides, wasn't she going to leave in January or the next album anyway.

Not even a language club (French, German, etc?)
I'm sure there's some org at your school that you might find interesting, anon. Even if it doesn't sound incredibly exciting, you might end up liking it or at least clicking with people in it?
I joined French club in HS despite not really wanting to and ended up meeting two of my best friends. We've all graduated from college and we're still close. Don't give up!

>>7853186
Nope. They've only got nineteen clubs on the club page at the moment and most of them are for people from other countries to get together since I go to a college that has a high population of international students. Other than that, we've got the Calligraphy Club, Unicef Club, Squash Club (literally says it's a club for people who love squash. The fuck?), Rubiks Cube club, and a couple major specific clubs like Nursing club. Also basketball and soccer, but I don't know about those since I have a bad knee. Maybe I'll sit in a couple times on the soccer one.

I would kill for a language club, not going to lie. Languages are the only things non-artsy I'm good at picking up at. I made lots of friends in my Italian class before I transferred because of this.

>mfw I just really want to transfer back

>>7853194
Start one? I'm sure you aren't the only one who wants a language club!

>>7853194
Squash is a sport anon.

>>7853194
>>7853198
Yeah, you should look into your college's criteria for starting a club and then try to get one started if you think you're up to it. I think it only took 6 people at my university.

>>7853563
if that's what you concluded from that post, then you're as dumb as rocks and should stay in r9k

One of my best friends (who is also incidentally my neighbour) is way too clingy with their partner (they're in a LDR) and they're always talking while I'm over. Tonight I was ditched for two hours while they played Gaia and I felt so incredibly frustrated, because my friend is plenty friendly and nice by themselves but they're such a pushover that they let their partner boss them around a lot. Their partner has vaguebloged about me before because apparently I'm "skinnier and prettier and get more attention" and given that they're always taking up my friend's time when I'm with them I get the feeling they're jealous or feel threatened, even though I'm gay and technically kind of in a relationship with someone already.

They checked up on me after a while and it was late and I was frustrated so I said, "You know what? I'll just leave," and walked out. They kept apologising to me as I left but I feel so bloody frustrated. You know you're being a bad host, you've told me yourself. So why is it so hard to tell your partner to go away for a bit while you're hanging out with friends?

I'm sick of you canceling on me and checking your phone constantly to talk to your partner whenever I'm around you. You've assured me it's not my fault and that you still value me as a friend, but if that's the case why do I feel like I'm wasting my time?

>>7851895
>>7851907
>>7851919
>>7851939
Yes the girl is an idiot, but eating healthy and working out doesn't do much for me, either. There was a time when I was skinnier, but I could only achieve and maintain my figure by eating pretty much only soup and taking caffeine pills. I was younger back then and also stupid, but I looked better. Now I'm healthy, working out all the time but back to Fattychan mode. Sucks.

>>7852079
>>7852084
But will the insurance cover it if some idiot sets fire out of stupidity?

>>7853634
You just said it yourself, though, you messed up your metabolism so your body freaked out and wants to make sure you're all set incase you have trouble finding food.

>>7853634
Have you been checked for hypothyroidism? Even if you're eating healthy and exercising, an underactive thyroid could be fucking with your weight

>>7853578
Congrats, fer real, anon.

How long it's take to lose all that, though?

>>7853578
I don't really though, I mean I could probably cut my carbs/butter intake and buy more veg/fruit for snacks but I really think it's more of a not enough exercise thing. I work a desk job in the city 9-5 and commute by train for about 3 hours of my day.

Thanks! I seriously lost it all in a summer. I was still skinnyfat and chunky in some places though, cause I didn't exercise at all.

>>7853718
Yeah, that sounds like it really messes with your body. Try cutting out butter, though. And if you aren't already, cut out coffee (replace with caffeine pills) and juices and just drink water.

>>7853777
Pale skin is also very very susceptible to splotchiness and blemishes. Even my boyfriend, who is firmly in the 'natural beauty' camp where I'm concerned, inadvertently agrees that I look better with a bit of bb cream and blush. He doesn't realize it's makeup, he thinks I look "well rested".
>tfw you're so translucent that you look undead whenever it's cold out

>>7853832
This. Any even minor blemish looks like an inflammed pink nightmare because my face has little pigmentation elsewhere. BB cream is basically mandatory for me if I don't want to look like shit.

Nah of course not, your skin tone is fine. In my experience most people tend to prefer more tanned skin tones (I only ever get shit for my pale skin, never compliments).

Fishing

>>7854570
You dated her for 7 months. Not 4 years, not 10 years. 7 months is really only enough time to talk about stupid shit and nothing really important later in life. You think you need her, but chances are you just need the feeling of being with someone. So grow up, leave her be for now, and look at other opportunities.

>>7854581
>be with girlfriend for 7 months
>we helped one another out of ruts in the past way before we were together

>>7854600
That isn't a relationship. Sounds like you make better friends than a couple.

>>7854600
So? You can still grow apart and live without each other, I had a partner for 5 years who I was friends with before that and we helped each other through a lot of stuff - when we broke up, thought the world had ended, no-one would understand me the same way, no-one could help him like I could etc. etc.
Fast forward five years on from that and we're both doing just fine, if not better, with different partners, are more like close acquaintances than actual friends and although we shared stuff in the past, and it was hard getting through the first year or so of being not-together it ultimately worked out fantastically.

>>7854605
>>7854610

>>7854600
Hun, if you were friends for that long before that and all it took was 7 months for her to have a breakdown and call it off, its a sign she's not happier with you. You need to move on.

that all completely justifies your -feelings-.....

but it doesn't matter in the long run. Almost no one stays with their "firsts", and that is because of lack of experience. Lack of experience will ultimately decimate you in life and in your relationships. Look at it this way: This is what I have come to understand as an adult woman now, about both my boyfriends and my friends. In your life you will meet people. These people are ones you were meant to come across in life because it was essential to your growth as a human being. Since things are ever-changing, eventually some of these people may not be necessary in your life anymore.. they could possibly even stunt your growth as a person, and so these people eventually fade from your life... It's an ongoing cycle. You'll meet people who will stay with you, but you'll meet far more who will won't. Take whatever good you can from this experience, take the time to heal, and try to understand that eventually you will wake up and find it easier to breathe without her.

My housemate does this. I can't stand to eat with her anymore.

Strangely enough, my then bf from the same country took care not to, so that was all right.

>tfw future cosplay list is about 75% nostalgia anime from the 80s-90s

I have one super sweet friend who would probably be willing to do any cute costumes, which is really cool and I appreciate it, but it's still not the same as having someone who's seen the material and is genuinely as excited as you are about the cosplay.

My boyfriend eats like a fucking cave man, he grabs utensils with his whole hand (which makes him eat kind of side ways? it's like every meal is a turkey leg) and just shovels food into his mouth, ends up eating with his mouth open enough to drive me crazy but thankfully not enough to make gross noises.
can we pls start a fund for people to learn how to eat like goddamn normal humans

>>7854700
I know the feeling...

>>7854699
Oh, I've tried on several occasions, but she just doesn't enjoy anime. She'll either get distracted or literally fall asleep. She'd rather watch shitty reality television (love the girl, but she has the worst taste), and she mostly cosplays Disney and western stuff unless I ask her to do something else. Oh welllll.

>>7854700

Eh, I look like I fell out the ugly tree, I'm really really unattractive, and I still got super cute art.

>>7854712

I can hear my housemate's chewing noises from the room next door. I was thinking bringing it up with her but even if I pointed it out without her getting offended that'll be a habit too hard to break.

Yes, let's.

>>7853962

Thank you for your advice, anons. At the moment, I'm just sad, but I'll get over it. Your advice really did help, and I need to get over it and stop being a whiny little pissbaby. I can always trust /cgl/ to not hugbox.

>>7854959
we love you, you stupid little faggot.

Gulls, I can't do this anymore.

I need to leave him....

I can't do this anymore.

Do you know how hard it is to be in a relationship and feel like you're alone all the fucking time? Even when he's sitting right next to you?
At least if I leave, I'll be at peace knowing that I'm not completely wasting my time trying to make him happy or interested in me or anything I care about, do, or say.
I'd rather be alone than feel lonely with the man who promised to love me.

I can't do this anymore.
I just want to be happy.

>>7855061
You deserve to be happy, anon. You deserve someone who's going to be happy just being near you, not someone you have to coax to smile. If leaving will make you happy, leave. Please do something good for yourself and your well being!

he's not a drunk anymore and has gotten better since I got out of the house.

I felt really awkward. I don't mind people venting to me, and she wasn't trying to be mean or vindictive but I didn't really know how to respond or hint to her to drop it since she didn't really give me space to do so.

I ended up just smiling and nodding my head "That's good for you"/"That's nice you have that" sort of thing.
Made me feel really shitty on top of being stressed out for 2 midterms, which have a 40% failure rate and if you fail one you fail the course.
She's also insisting on doing animation for the project that's worth 5%. I don't really mind this since it means less work, but it kind of bugs me that she was really dismissive when I offered to do it.

Friendly enough girl, just she's one of those "I'm so quirky" types.

There's also a goth girl who carries a bunny around. Apparently she's been around here for at least 4 years. I'm curious why she's still at a college(that most people use as a transfer to uni or 2 yr programs) and why she carried a stuffed bunny even though she's at least in her mid-late 20's

I hate today.

Am I right to be fighting to keep this kitten for myself? I'm even considering paying him for the vet bills he has currently paid and essentially buying her from him. I'm desperate.

>>7855445
Oh and I should elaborate, while the whole "buying her from him" option SEEMS reasonable, he does care about her so I don't know if it would work. So it's not like that's a foolproof option. He just has his and not her best interests in mind and it's incredibly upsetting and I'm sorry I'm being such a baby about this.

>>7855435
Thanks. I do feel a little better now that I've cooled down.

I just felt so angry. If I don't say anything, I get stepped on. If I do, apparently I'm not very understanding to his needs. I don't know what to do. I can't even defend myself.

And yeah, it makes him sound like a dick, but he's honestly just a little vapid sometimes.

>>7855454
Tell him he's an irresponsible idiot and you've been doing all the work regarding the cat since the beginning. People like that shouldn't have animals and I pity that cat.

>>7855454
I would try the buying from him method first, since that's the most peaceful and will result in the least amount of bad feelings.
If he doesn't go for it, ask him why he's unwilling to give the kitten to you but plans on giving her away anyways. Tell him he can come and visit both kitties whenever he wants to.
If none of the above works, tell him you'll call animal services (not sure what it's called where you live) to get the kitten taken away. It's extreme, but it's better off that kitty's in the hands of professionals rather than this negligent fool who might end up killing her. If things work out you might even be able to adopt kitty afterwards.

>>7855378
She sounds kind of dense... You aren't used to talking about your family issues IRL are you? IT can be really hard to tell people to stop but there are ways to phrase it that don't make you come across as a huge wreck. Like "I'm sorry, talking or hearing about this subject brings up bad memories for me. Can we please drop it? I don't mean any offense"
I'm sorry you're having so much stress anon-chan, I wish you the best of luck on midterms and dealing with oh-so-quirky girl

I don't even know how to respond. I know we're friends but would it kill her to be nice about it if she's asking for a favor? It's not like I even asked her to shoot me in the first place, she asked me to do a shoot for her own gain. To be honest, I have other photography friends that would be more than happy to do a shoot with me for free so it's not like she's my only option. I'm not even big on doing shoots for my cosplays because I don't really post them anywhere. I don't mind shooting her but it's how she constantly approaches me with very little respect that's been building up some frustration in me.

>>7855382
Wat

>>7855445
Strike a deal with him. Do it. This is how my ex ended up with his cat, Carl. Carl's original owners neglected him, but ex made sure he was okay. Friends decide to move. Ex asks plans to do with Carl, friends shrug. He basically laid down the law and seven or so years later, they're still happily together.
If your room mate really wanted a kitten, this wouldn't have even been a situation you would be debating. I'm sure he wouldn't care one way or the other.

>>7855500
My boyfriend told me about a week ago that he got with me because he was still blubbering over his ex-girlfriend and wanted some comfort. He's still not over her.
He says he loves me, so to him that makes everything okay between him and I.

I don't know how to feel. I don't know if I should just suck it up and get over the fact he still feels for his ex ( they don't speak to each other, she broke up with him ), or be upset. He used to compare me to her too. It makes me want to cry.

>>7855667
Anon get out of there as fast as you can. That's not a healthy situation and it never will be.

>>7855667

>>7855667
Please leave him. You deserve someone who actually likes you for you, from the very start. If he's still not over her, you shouldn't have to be his crutch until he is, because who knows if he'll love you once he's finally done using you.

>>7855667

>two years ago
>still not over the ex
>you can tell he's still not over her

Why are you even dating him, anon. He's not even making an effort to make you feel special. Do you really want to be a consolation prize forever? Go find someone else who thinks you're the first price.

No I'm really not, but I'll chime it in if it's relevant or if I'm asked. I'm not the type to start out a conversation with how my mom is dead and I don't have a close family etc.
But I'll try that next time. Hopefully I get a minute to give my own input though. I really hate interrupting.

Again, nice enough girl and has her own issues so I'm not too bothered, although it did make me more upset after she left.

Thanks for the good luck

>>7855061
You'll feel lonely afterwords too, but its so much nicer of a lonely. You don't feel like you're straining for that someone to notice you. It wears down on your confidence and it's just shit.

Leave him, live life a little more, and find someone who doesn't make you feel lonely. It's so much better.

Just be careful with how he reacts. When I finally left my boyfriend after two years of the feeling lonely or a nuisance, and him getting better for a week before turning back into stern irritated him, he turned into a wreck. Coming to my work constantly calling not understanding why I suddenly didn't want to date.

As weird as it sounds, I hope its mutually deteriorated. It's a lot harder to leave when one person is still heavily invested...

So... how difficult is it for someone who speaks zero Japanese to navigate around Tokyo and shop at all the cute niche fashion stores? If I started spending my evenings studying, would I be able to manage on my own a year from now? And if so, what would be the best way to go about this?
I wish we could just de-weeb bf's sister but she's already in her late twenties and shows no sign of growing the fuck up.

>>7855667

giving a person who has no interest in photography a camera and telling them to take photos is like giving a person who has no interest in art a paintbrush and paints and telling them to make a painting

they're not going to enjoy it, they're not going to have fun with it, it has nothing to do with you. just because they don't want to photograph/paint you doesn't mean they don't love you. it just means they don't like to take photos/paint.

>>7855987
If you have any sort of ipad/iphone/etc that allows you to do overseas connections bring that along for maps since you can just enter in addresses and route, otherwise Tokyo City Atlas is a good physical map to bring.

The Yamanote line will take you anywhere you need to go in Tokyo and all the station announcements are done in English - for specific stores having the address on hand so you can ask for directions will also be helpful.

Don't worry, you'll be fine.

>>7854834
I love food. A part of me dies when I offer my boyfriend a bite of my food and he takes a huge bite (which is probably small to him because he is a big guy).
But I'm always free to take his food so I guess it balances out, even if my bites are small.

>>7855261
I don't know if this helps, but my boyfriend and I discussed what we wanted and what we needed before getting together. Our goals in life are similar and we have similar interests. We're still together and it's been three years, which probably doesn't sound like much but it is still our first relationship.
We're currently living together and our study/life dynamics are working well.

>If a guy is so shallow that he won't date an entire race of people, that's his damage.
What? If you're not attracted to someone, you're not attracted to someone. That's the equivalent of calling a straight person homophobic because they don't want to date their own gender, or telling someone they're just being silly when they don't want to date a clingy fedora neckbeard.

>>7855987
Agreed, bring a smartphone, leave weebs at home, it's really easy (and kind of fun trying to find ways to express yourself). Of course knowing some Japanese will enrich your experience there.

>>7856072
its not like that at all.

end of this discussion.

>inb4 any dumb ass response you can give or fullblown /pol/ shit

>today I "virgin shamed" a guy in front of a lot of people and it felt damn good

>>7856079
Would you date someone you're not physically attracted to then?

>>7856079
yes it is exactly like that.
Please provide a better argument other than "nuh uh shut up ur dumb and retarded", because in the end it's personal preference and you like what you like. Nobody's forcing you to like dick if you are a straight dude, and people who do are just as bad as people forcing someone to like the opposite sex because "i don't like it". You don't get to decide what and whom people should and shouldn't like.

>>7856085
no, but I wouldn't cross out an ENTIRE race of people.

people of all races can have attractive features, attractiveness is not limited to certain races.

>>7856089
they were speaking generally.

>>7856091
I was speaking about dumb ass guys who would rather die alone than date a darker girl.

"perfect girl in every way except she's black? trash."

I thought the agreement was having racial preferences was not """"""racism"""""" just like finding taller people more attractive isn't heightism, or finding people with hook noses attractive is not nasopharyngism.

>>7856107
this is embarrassing please stop

>>7856107
>nasopharyngism
that's a weird way to spell "anudder shoah", anon

in all seriousness you can't help finding something attractive/unattractive and tastes change.

>>7856110

Really? That's how you're ending this conversation? Please explain to me why and not just "it's racism period stop oh my god i can't even."

Because whether you like it or not, people will find certain features more attractive than others. That's how the world works.

>>7856106
As a suicide "survivor" I can honestly say it does not get better. But you hit a point where you stop giving a fuck and just live to see what happens. Revel in the nice moments, read a good book, drink a nice cup of tea, watch some Netflix *cough*smokesomeweed*cough* and just live in the mediocre moments. Things that are really engaging can get you out if your head long enough to not be depressed for as long as you're engaged in thing, for me that's sci-fi and period dramas. But you know, find your thing.

>>7856114
you're just too dumb to be helped and will derail the thread with shitty arguments.
I truly believe that unless you experience this type of bullshit firsthand, your opinion on this matter is not going to change no matter what type of argument I have to give.

now excuse me while I play some mother fucking smash bros

>>7856122

>>7856122

You know what would suck even more? If you dated a dude that was racist and he kept finding excuses to put you down. His friends keep putting you down. He keeps you in an abusive situation because he thinks you're submissive because of your race.

Now that is a shitty and racist situation.

Not having a guy be attracted to you because of race isn't a huge loss, it's like having a guy not attracted to you because you're tall. Having the guy mock you day after day for your height is being an asshole, just as a guy mocking your skintone is racism. You need to differentiate between the two because now it seems you're arguing against sexual attraction in general.

>>7856126
Of course no black girl wants to date the racist guy, but that has nothing to do with the fact that that guy is most certainly racist. Your argument makes no sense.

I fell madly in love with an internet celeb last night after hearing some music that I didn't know he composed and sang.
I liked him a lot before, but after hearing his music, I found myself absolutely moved to tears.
Holy shit, this feeling is AWFUL.
I finally understand how people can be obsessed fans of someone now, whereas I never understood it before and I found myself scoffing at the sheer stupidity of idolizing and "loving" someone like that.

>A-at least I'm not fantasizing about animated guys anymore..
>feels fucking pathetic, either way, tho

>>7856112
>in all seriousness you can't help finding something attractive/unattractive and tastes change.

This is what people have been trying to argue all along. It's a correlation, you just so happen to find X unattractive (tall noses, for example) so you're going to prefer Y race. If someone in Y race had X features, you're probably not going to be attracted to them.

>>7856122
>will derail the thread
Kinda already happened.

Of course I have, I've always been deemed the "ugly" one, so I usually end up sitting back and watching while all of my other friends get hit on. Guess what? I sucked it up and found someone that I found attractive, and who found me attractive too.

Are you suggesting that everyone should be attracted to anyone so their feelings don't hurt? Because I hate to say it, but everyone would be miserable if that happened.

>>7856128
at least they have an argument

>>7856126
We're not talking about actual racism, we're talking about finding people attractive. Some people just like being over dramatic and like to equate "I don't like certain features" to "all black people should burn in hell.

>>7856135
There ARE varying degrees of racism. And it doesn't all equate to 'all black people should burn in hell' oh lawd

>>7856135
When you bring in skin color, is not so much "a feature" as it is the very definition of racism.

There are preferences, then there's being racist. Like, I PREFER brunnets, but I wouldn't throw a blond compleatly out of the question because she's not a brunnet.

>>7856144
My bad, this was meant for >>7856131

>>7856144
racism = hating someone because of their race
hating =/= not liking something

>>7856152
No.

Racism = discriminating against someone because of their race. Not just "hating".

>>7856095
Lol. Did some white guy put you down?

>>7856154
So I quess because I'm not lesbian and don't date women I'm sexist? I mean, I've just discriminated all of them.

Holy shit, finding something attractive isn't racist, tumblr is the other way.

>>7856157
Lol. that's like everyday, always and forever.

>>7855763
Were you the Donald posting in the progress thread? If so, massive props!

>>7856161
Lol what? Do you hear how ridiculous you sound? Sexuality isn't a "preference" you moron.

You just outed yourself as an idiot republican, have fun trying to prove you're totally not racist (not that it wasn't balantly obvious already)

>>7856161
>>7856169
I associate conservatism to the point if retardation with old people, so mostly I'm wondering what someone this old is doing on this board.

>>7856173
She could be 14 and raised by her grandparents in Texas.

>Convention Saturday
>It is Friday
>Not packed
>still need some things
>just burnt the shit out of my hand on tea mug

>>7856163
when a white guy rejects a black girl it doesn't mean he was racist

it just means he wasn't attracted to her

>>7856169
Sexuality isn't a preference but it affects who you're attracted to? Which is clearly the point other anon was making??

>Being this much of a tumblr SJW

My best friend is turning into a sjw
I have no problem calling myself one but she is taking it to an extreme like those Tumblr ones
I am a sad face

>>7855382
He stuck with you afterwards because means youre a better than his ex.Ya dingus.

>>7856213
Not at all. If he rejects all black girls because they're black it definitely does.

>>7856235
Sexual orientation =/= sexuality, although it clearly effects it.

>>7856235
Lesbians aren't obliged to fuck all women any more than anyone else specially those that aren't even attracted to them. Wtf are you people on and how backward can you get?

>>7856235
**sexual ORIENTATION is not a preference.

I realize I wrote sexuality but that's not what I meant. Everyone has preferences though but it goes beyond the word "preference" when you flat out refuse to date anyone who does not meet these phisical standarts. And no it doesn't have to be racism, he could be ocd or just generally ridiculously, maniaticaly, perfectionist but more often than not....

>>7856241
Or it just means she's a side show until his ex changes her mind about him

>>7856135

That's... that's what I meant dude.

I was saying racism and being attracted to certain things are two completely different things.

this thread
>my little seagull cant be this much of a SJW
you cant control who likes who for what ever reason, good or bad, live with it

>>7856258
I feel like if your 'preferences' that you absolutely hold on to, no matter what is just 'not black' you can be pretty sure it's racism and not perfectionism tho

>>7856244
Could be he just isn't into black girls. Not everyone finds dark skin attractive. Other characteristics common to black people could just not be attractive. Then again, I'm 90% sure this is bait.

That's great to hear! Thank you for answering.
Of course knowing a bit of Japanese will make things easier but I'm glad to know that I don't need to be near-fluent to find my way around. Being in a country where you don't speak the language can be so stressful.

>>7854560
She wants all the benefits of a relationship without calling it a relationship, I say cut and run.

>>7853962
Are you even serious?

Being brown doesn't make you ugly. I am a Beyonce-like color and I've never heard anyone imply that I'm unattractive. I actually receive compliments on my skincolor.

>>7856314
That is literally what the entire argument in this thread is about.

>>7855496
Tell her you don't have time whenever she "suggests" doing something. Make up appointments, or say "sorry, my schedule is already full for the entire convention, but there should be other photographers it there!" It sounds like she's a bad friend if she doesn't even take your time into consideration. If she says something like "oh but those photographers demand money", ask her "so you don't consider my work valuable enough to be paid?" And then avoid her like the plague

Just study on your own
You can learn how to string a basic sentence together really fast
You'll want these:
I need a bathroom
Where is the train/place
Left/right/up/down
Numbers
I want_____
I don't understand
I only speak English
