/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Five years out of college, and I feel like I've completely failed at life.

The only thing that makes me feel okay is when I'm walking around a con, random underage girls telling me I'm cute.

>buy lots of brando during visit to Japan
>get called curvy by someone
>hide all brand and Jfashion
>stay away from cgl and 4chan for a year
>become skinny bitch after spending time in the void
>brand still looks bad on me
JUST

>>9111609
Define failing in life. You atleast still get enough money to go to cons and pay for cosplays, so that's something you can be proud of.

>>9111632
I've utterly failed as an artist. I work at Starbucks. My girlfriend left me. I had to move back in with my parents. I'm trying to kick an ADD med habit.

Currently staying up all night so I can make my 4am shift at work. The aforementioned parents kept me up way too late fighting.

Girlfriend broke up with me about 2 weeks ago, still feeling really raw about it.

Trying to pull the "let's just be friends" but it's hurting me pretty bad right now... especially when I bought so much for her next cosplays and it's too late to send shit back. Too bad she won't get them at least.

>working out every other day and dieting
>proud of myself
>somehow gained weight
>so upset I just want to stop eating entirely instead

I just want to fit better into lolita and wear nanchatte

>>9111696
If you're lifting weights you'll gain some weight but lose inches. Just stick with it. You can do it. I've lost 40 lbs in 4 months though perseverance and belief in myself. I believe in you anon.

>>9111706
Im mostly lifting actually, then adding some cardio too like swimming laps.

Its just weird to me because when I started I lost a little weight and now I gained some.

Thanks though! I really hope I can lose as much as you did in that amount of time, that would make me and my dresses so happy

>Mom's piece of shit stoner boyfriend moves in
>he smokes 3 times a day inside my house
>constantly tell her that I hate the smell of weed and it makes me nauseous
>she totally defends him for no reason
>he keeps smoking inside
>I can practically taste the value of all my burando plummeting
I'm hoping to move out soon but I don't know if I'll ever be able to get the smell out of my dresses

>>9111749
Space saver vaccum sealed bags will keep them safe until you can trust your air again.
Baking soda left in your closet will help in the interim unless he's smoking so much he leaves clouds.

>>9111696
Thats completely normal to be honest. Might be better to measure your waist than weight, assuming you are mainly trying to lose belly fat.

>tfw no /cgl/ gf

My feels are only in a distant way related to cgl, as I want to go and get a job that lets me move out and start my career before I really start to invest in fun things like cosplay and larp. I don't want to have the shame of doing nerdy stuff like cosplay and so on while I am still at home with my folks (wonderful people and supportive and I am lucky in that regard, more fortunate than I deserve to be). And I am getting worried at how I am not having any responses on my resume and job applications. I know I don't have experience but I am aiming for the lowest of the low totem pole entry level stuff, lowballing a desired salary if they ask about it (obv. not mentioning it if they don't). I want to pay my dues and prove myself, I just need someone to fucking give me the chance.

And with how mad the world is and globalization and all that shit you'd think they'd have lots of spots for a foreign affairs graduate. Gallows humor makes me think of the british royal soldiers back in the day having the cheer "here's to a plague and a war", as either gave quick promotion. Heard from someone in the field they really want a masters or higher, so I might go back for that (2 years for a masters is more tangible than the 4 or more years).

And my chickenshit nature of always flaking out when I try new things is making me too afraid to try and pursue, even if just to get my feet wet and see if it's for me, some other options (I dunno if I'd have the stomache for paramedic, I got a free 1 time flight lesson/experience ticket last xmas good for 2 years but I dunno if I'll take to it).

>>9111617

There'll always be someone rude and caustic to rain on your day, try to not let them do so. I'm not familiar with lolita so perhaps there is no room for curviness, but I'd like to think and hope there is.

>>9111673

Life can unfold in unexpected ways. I will say that the pursuit of artistry is a rather risky dance on a knife's edge in terms of prosperity or poverty. If you don't want to be a starving artist then you may want to find another passion or skill to try and take advantage of. I'm >>9111784 and I love writing and history and research but I figured a history degree was too weak and aimless, so I found a field where my history/research affinity would be useful. My failure to get a jerb so far is more to do with my own mistakes (distractions at home and uncertainties kept me from getting an internship) than lack of ability.

I'm not familiar with etsy and shit, but there is that to try and make money on the side with your artistry, whatever form it takes.

And I just looked up the cost of masters degrees. >>9111784 and how I feel. Though I'll have to keep in mind a variety of options to mitigate it.

If not for my piece of shit cunt father's brother and his two-faced greedy baptist bitch wife stealing my father's side of the inheritance from my grandfather it wouldn't be an issue. Bonus points that they, childless now and forever, kept all the meticulous research on heritiage my grandfather did on our family name.

>>9111673
Sounds rough. I hope you have a nice day, anon. I have a feeling you'll strike gold soon, so keep fighting!

don't ever do this anon promise me
i made the mistake and lost years of my life to incessant drama over the smallest of bullshit

you're still young, still have hope in your eyes. please, don't date on this board

>>9111807
Years of your life? What happened?

>>9111809
i can't say, anon. she's still here somewhere

>>9111816

>someone sold me a dress when (I guess) she was struggling financially
>she really wants to buy it back now and has offered double what she sold it to me for
>mfw I love the dress but I don't want to disappoint her by not letting her have it back

>>9111854
If you love the dress, keep it. I understand feeling bad about it and all, but you bought it far and square.

Just tell her you're not interested in selling it back at this time.

>>9111855
fair* damn

>>9111673
Can't you do anything with your degree? I'm studying information systems and even if I'm not that great at it there's a lot of demand in my country for people with that kind of skillset. Only takes around 1 month on average for people to find a job that is on their level for my degree in my country. A Bsc opens up a lot of doors. Maybe I will do after my Msc a phd but that's still some time away since it will take at least 2 years before I get that.

>be me, be single for a long time now, suddenly meet this seemingly perfect guy through facebook (neither of us are catfishing as we go to the same cons)
>said guy is a cosplayer, built, and a total sweetie
>we talk every once in a while and we honestly seem like such a good fit, our interests align very well
>suddenly catch myself constantly thinking about him, wishing we lived close by, looking at his facebook several times a day, getting impatient when he doesnt reply to my messages right away

i am scaring myself. this is straight up some creepy shit that i'm doing here, but i really really like this guy

>>9111887

I'd say
>>suddenly catch myself constantly thinking about him, wishing we lived close by, looking at his facebook several times a day,

is just a crush head over heels in love. Without repeating the usual and obvious caution about the reality vs the fantasy of a crush and that if you interact/live with him more it might change, it's nice and sweet and there's nothing wrong with what you're doing. So don't fret. You're just happy and infatuated. Not stalker.

However,

> getting impatient when he doesnt reply to my messages right away

Is not in itself creepy but it is rather clingy and bad and not good, especially if it's a hallmark of future things to come if knock-on-wood you two start dating. I think it's normal for a lot of women and clingy guys, but try to be conscious of it and scale it back because it won't do anything good to be impatient and rude if he doesn't respond right away - it won't make him love you more, it won't make him like you more and it won't make him respond faster because he wants to, but because he doesn't want trouble.

Best of luck and hope the love persists.

>Con coming up real soon
>Cosplay not even close to done because my materials arrived super late
>Finally get all the shit together
>Plan that I thought would go incredibly wrong actually worked out almost perfectly

Now I'm ready to bust this thing out.
Fuck sleep. Sleep is for the weak.

>>9111904
you got this, anon! which con?

>>9111719
Calories in, calories out anon.

>Always wanted to do skintight bodysuit/plugsuit cosplays, but used to be chubby so didn't
>Have lost a lot of weight during the last year or so and would have the body for a bodysuit cosplays now
>Can't do them now because of an ileostomy

>>9111749
That's a shitty situation, but don't worry, it won't affect your clothing unless he's smoking it with tobacco.

>>9111887
shit I came here to post more or less the same thing. Good luck to us both!

I found out a cosplay I commissioned from a friend has been copied by a Chinese company to be mass produced. Sure the character isn't mine but I'm more upset that her personal style was pretty much stolen and there isn't a whole lot we can do.

>>9111754
Really good ideas, thank you!

>>9112013
Unsure if he is or not but this is good to know, thanks!

>>9111609
Similar situation. Four years out of college, have been pretty much on and off NEET mode the entire time with only a few temp jobs here and there. Crippling depression sparked in part by being unemployable starting in 2013 that I've only started to overcome in the past six months. I've spent most of the past four years thinking about killing myself, but I'm trying to turn things around. My only truly happy moments anymore seem to be seeing my friends from other parts of the country at the one or two cons we get to attend together each year.

Good luck, anon. I hope things get better. At least you're working, unlike a pathetic bum living off daddy's money like me. I believe in you and your ability to make things better.

>>9111894
Aw thanks anon, I feel a little more sane. But yea I don't send him another message if he doesn't reply but its taking a lot from me so i don't come off as creepy by sending multiple messages. And I tell myself that he's replying which is good, but idk if he's doing it out of a feeling of must or want, idk if he's interested as well or if it's just me...

>>9112033
Best of luck to us! It's been a long time since I even liked anyone

One of my hard to find dream dresses just went up for sale. I was planning on buying it, but I got my picture taken at a red light camera. Now I need to pass on the dress to pay for the probably $500+ ticket. I'm so mad at myself.

>anabstractkindoffeel.jpg
Finished school, didn't get the grades I wanted
Can't really go to uni because grades are too low (and before anyone says 'have to be 18 to be on this board' -- I'm technically a mature student)
Just feel like I've squandered my life even though I tried super hard on my course, put in maximum effort but still ended up sucking.
>hurr hurr I squandered my life anyway bc it's an art course
Dunno what to do mang

to keep it cgl related, at least I can buy p much all the brando I want bc I have a minimum wage job that gives me a billion hours because I have nothing else to do

'nother cgl feel-ish
best friend comes round, I pop out of room for 5 mins. Next day turns out she looked in my closet and says she saw my 'weird dresses' aka lolita
I don't really mind but I know she's not really understanding about these things. Sort of like 'well what's the point' and she wouldn't be seen out with me in that sort of stuff. She likes posh normie clothes and she doesn't like anything girly/jfash-y (even my normie style is p much the antithesis of her taste)
dunno what to say, just feel a bit deflated. Just whatever my dudes.

>>9111773
Awwwww did Chris broke up with you?

>>9112143

At the 'worst' he clearly enjoys your company as a friend, and that's the worst case scenario. I'd say average and most likely case case is you can keep up the flirting and teasing and get him interested in you as clearly there's the chemistry of friendship there, and the best case scenario is he is interested - and for all you know he might feel the same way but be a bit too shy to make the first approach! . There's clearly a chemistry of sorts there, so keep up the flirting and fun and getting to know him. You've nothing but good to come about from it, and here's hoping he'll reciprocate for you and >>9112033

For me, I haven't done the research yet but the gut in me is growing more partial to trying to return for graduate school. >>9111798 . I love love -love- to do research and papers and all that college shit, 3.7 GPA in my major and 3.3 overall, it'd mitigate my 2 year limbo since graduation and give me a major boost in the arm for employability. It's just going to be a matter of seeing what kind of financial aid I'd be able to get and if I can mitigate the amount of debnts to have to pay.

Either once I get a job that gets me outta here and on my own, or when I am back in school, and I get fits, I'mma try for a cosplay this time next year for Otakon (first con I'd ever go to). Might change depending on what new stuff comes out but I'mma thinking either Daryun I haven't watched Arslan yet but I am a big Persaboo and Shahnameh is one of my favorite books, Advent Stun lancer, or try and see if there's some dank souls armor that is recognizable and ideally with a polearm. I'd die to do Ornstein but that's pro-tier and not for a scrub. Silver knight would be pretty sexy.

>>9111773
/cgl/ girls are fucking crazy. You don't want one.

>con in three weeks

>Wanted to do pair cosplay with gf from a certain series
>I'm a fan of the series, gf not so much - she just goes along with me
>It's been years, we've never gotten around to do the cosplays, gf's cosplay-schedule is packed
>Decide to do the cosplay alone for upcoming con. Gf is okay with it, I'm okay with it, we proceed with our solo plans
>One of our mutual friends gets into the series, wants to cosplay the same character as my gf would have
>I'm okay with doing a pair-cosplay with her instead
>Figure it's probably okay with gf too, since she does pair cosplay with other people at the same con, cannot really change her plans and wasn't really a fan of the series anyway.
>Ask gf if it's okay that I cosplay with the friend instead
>Gf gets really mad (despite her schedule already being filled with pairs with other people and never getting around to do the pair with me).
>Offer another character for gf to cosplay from the same series so that we can have a group later on with the three of us, or that gf can use the friend's cosplay in some other con
>She's not having it, is still mad, doesn't accept my apology

Measure yourself every two weeks. The scale lies sometimes

>>9111609
Time for you to reinvent yourself. I went to college and didn't get a job that I thought I wanted. I am going back to school next year and trying again.

>finished dream costume
>8 months work
>what do i do now

>5'6" ginger male
>no cosplays exist for me
It is an abstract kind of feel.

>>9112629
Let me guess: wigs are uncomfortable, guys wearing makeup is gay, but height is the real issue here when no one cares about that.

>>9112648
I have no problem with those things.

I have depression and have been trying my best to cope at the moment. Struggling to find work as well.
Constantly being criticised by everyone around me even though I am trying super hard to get back on my feet.
At least I can still wear lolita to feel better at least.

>want to grab some Malco Modes pettis
>$50 USD for shipping to Canada, equals $65 CAD
>wtf killme.jpg

I know shipping rates can be expensive but like fuck, petticoats are light and can be squished down small

They can't be worse than me

>>9112723
Search for malco mode pettis on amazon and ebay for some cheaper prices usually!

>>9111617
My friend thinks she is an ugly cunt, and I am constantly dealing with her self hatred and self pity combined with a non existant self-worth. She is also always worrying about what people think of/ about her. It gets old anon. especially when she flakes on events/ hangouts because: "I have drama with A, she said horrible things about me", "I look like ita trash", "I don't know why people would want to be friends with me anyways, I am such trash", "but I am so ugly, people will talk".. or whenever you talk you have to build them up all the time, and deal with their constant downer.

Stop trying to be a reflection of an ideal and just be yourself. Essentially no one actually gives a fuck what you look like in local comms and long as you are fun to hangout with. It is only on the internet that anyone cares and that's because people are pretty much soley exposed to the "ideal-lolita". Just be happy and do what you want. you are wasting your life living by other peoples 'rules'

From: a freckly, fatty-chan.

>someone keeps taking jabs at details of my costume
>their own costume is duct-taped and glued together

>>9111807
I'm sorry you had a bad experience. It sounds completely resonable to swear off all lolita women.

I've finally reached the breaking point with my weight. I've always been kinda chubby, so I never really realized how bad my weight had gotten until just recently. When I started college I was probably around 150, and by the end of my freshman year I was right at 178, I think. I've pretty much stayed the same weight through my sophomore year. I've always tried to have the *~body positivity~* mindset but no matter what I just end up hating myself, especially when I see how I look in cosplay. Today I got on Facebook, and it had a post saying "it's been so many years since you joined" and I saw my old pictures, and when I compared myself in high school to my most recent cosplay I was disgusted. Starting tomorrow I'm gonna start working out and eating better to try and get some of this weight off (ideally I want to get down to between 125 and 130) so wish me luck, gulls.

>>9112781
I did the same thing as you basically, I graduated highschool about 140~ lbs and modeled locally even so I always felt really good about myself but I just let myself get fatter and fatter and it really slapped me in the face when I got weighed at the doctor (its been about 7 years since highschool now) and I was weighed at 196.

I started looking at my old model pictures and my recent photos and was just mortified I let myself get so fat. Im just lucky my weight distribution is good, im also lucky to have a bf thats very into working out and lifting.

Lets both get back down to our ideals and feel good about ourselves. We can do it if we try!

>>9112746
Hnnng thank you so much anon! This is a life saver. A little disappointed they dont have the Savannah style on their amazon, but I cant complain for a way more reasonable shipping rate

>>9112781

Good luck anon. I think once you become a young adult, its easy to let yourself gain weight.
>hence the sophomore 15 or whatever the heck they call it

I'd suggest when youre working out, try to focus on your fitness goals and progress more than your weight loss. I find if focusing on how much weight your losing leaves you frustrated. Instead try to focus on other things like "Oh I jogged x amount last week, lets try to beat that number this week !" Its much more rewarding and you lose weight naturally in the process.

I reported them to my RA and housing so many times and nobody did anything or would let me move to a different dorm because of lack of space or some shit. I hate dirty people who smoke inside of a building. Escape that shit, anon.

>>9112806
freshman 15. it's very prevailant because once kids leave home they don't eat square meals or moniter their portions like their parents would serve them or whatever. gotta learn how to get your own healthy food the hard way, which is generally about 15 extra pounds from eating pizza everyday at 4am

>>9111984
>google ileostomy
Yikes. I hope it's only temporary.

>>9112665

If wigs aren't an issue then you can find plenty of cosplay.

Hell, you're a ginger? Alright, gijinka Nick from Zootopia.

Just wear a wig. I haven't cosplayed yet but I know /cgl/ has a point firm as a fanny that you hae to wear a wig as RL hair will almost never fit for the role.

If you don't like a wig, try and find something with armor.

>>9112806

Freshman fifteen. I love/hate how I actually lost weight freshman year (way back in 09) because I did fitness and either I never drank any soft drinks or I only drunk them when we ate at the cafiteria or a restaurant - about the dorm it was water water water. sadly I'm addicted to coke now. Going to start working out again

>>9111984

Shit man/woman I am sorry to hear that. Is there no way you couldn't tape it down, do a kind of 'breast wrapping' just around the stomache instead? Yeah it might do a bit of a bulge I guess but...well wait, what about one of those big boxy bandaids? It would still bulge a little, but you could do some clever touch to work it into the costume. Like have that ileostomy position be a faux wound. Not literally a seeping wound but look at how Asuka has the patchwork over her right (our left) side.

I believe in you, you can do it (wo)mang.

He ended up staying with us for three days straight that time, and i only got to sleep in my bed once. At one point (unknown to my roommate) he propositioned me to have sex with him while wearing my costume of Yukari from P3 after he went through some photos in my desk.

Thanks, guys. I never really expected the freshman 15 to be a real thing but or smacked me in the face hard. My biggest weakness isn't so much my diet as it is sugary drinks. I'm in 3D modeling/animation courses and a lot of our projects take a shitton of time, and since I've never really liked coffee I go for soda. I'm going to start trying green tea and fruit blends for the caffeine, and I might allow myself a soda once in a while. Besides that it's just adding the workout routine. Best of luck to all of us, though!

>>9112726
You'd be surprised.


But regardless of who's crazier, with the way relationships work you're the one who stands to suffer a whole lot more.

>>9112928

Aside of the meme of causing cancer you could try diet soda. I remember having night-sweats and possibly a night terror (or just a vivid nightmare) when I did that but it was probably just circumstance. I haven't gone with the diet drinks, but yeah.

Another idea is whenever you have a soda to have an equal or greater amount of water. Or maybe water before the soda to see if you are really thirsty

That's pretty hilarious. Where'd you get the flag? I need more Gundam merch

Missed out on my dream dress again. Knowing someone bought it less than 5 minutes before me is the real kicker. Starting to wonder if they only way I'll get it is via a re-release.

What really hurts was that I have a LOT of mental problems and trust issues that I've been working on for my whole life, I was freaking out when he was leaving because I was scared he'd find someone else, and I let my guard down and thought he cared. He would ask to go to some of my therapy sessions and ask "what specifically can I do to help?" and this is on his own accord. I know he has sex addiction problems, as well as other psychological addiction problems (he smokes weed from the time he wakes up to the time he goes to bed, and probably masturbates 5-7 times a day) and I said "you fucked me up, I can't be serious with you, I might want an open thing at best but only if you get help" and he's being a bitch about it. "I won't live up to your standards!" My standards are to see a therapist and send me a screencap of you telling this girl about me and that you can't talk to her anymore, not a lot seeing as you completely fucked my trust.

I dunno, I love him still but I feel like the dumb girl in pic related.

>>9113122
Forgot to go back to /cgl/ related; I'm so fucking depressed I don't even want to go to the con anymore let alone work on cosplays. Same time, want to go and sleep with all the cosplayers from games he likes and tell him about it so he associates that character with my skank ass.

>>9113122
If you're actually staying with this guy then you are exactly as dumb as the girl in your pic. Once a cheater, always a cheater.

He cares more about his dick than your feelings, your trust or your happiness.

Call the cops on him lol

>>9113122

you deserve so much hun. I know it's hard but I want you to forget about him for a bit and maybe relax making cosplays? idk if cosplay making is relaxing with a deadline coming up so soon but when my heart feels sad doing chores and sewing helps me relax and just be in my own bubble. Please leave him.. I would never be the same after my guy telling me he fucked a girl not only once as a drunken mistake but twice and knew what he was doing. I honestly think cheaters simply don't respect the relationship and even people who have gotten chances to chest choose not too.
I also recommend you still go for a con, especially if you already bought your passes. It could cheer you up, you've been looking forward to it don't let a boy ruin it for you.

Well today I spilled scalding hot tea on my hand and got accidentally punched in the boob, but otherwise, good tea party.

"sex addiction" is a weird way of saying "i can sleep with whoever i want because i have issues :-( "

sounds like my last boyfriend, anon. Wanna know what I did with him? I broke up. Best decision I've ever made.

>come home from lolita meetup
>hot, kinda sweaty, covered in frills
>super tired so I just want to de-frill, take a shower and hang out on the couch eating ice cream
>boyfriend is playing video games in his underwear, in the exact same spot as he was when I left five hours ago
>"hey anon the store closes in 15 min so can you pop out and get groceries real quick ok thanks"
>wtf no, just go yourself
>"I can't, I'm not dressed"
>okay but I'm a tired, overheated birthday cake
>it would take him way less time to put on a t-shirt and shorts than for me to get out of my coord and into something more comfy
>"oh well, guess we're eating frozen pizza then"
Ugghhh

I want a weeb cosplaying bf but it seems like the only way to find other gay/bi cosplayers is by diving into a con/local comm's 'LGBT community', which is either full of really sexually charged people or people who see being LGBT as their hobby and define themselves by it, neither of which is me. Not only that, the groups tend to basically be glorified dating sites which I really don't like either.

It doesn't help that on top of that obstacle I have a bunch of other pre-requisites too, they're not shallow or too picky but I realize I'm chasing unicorns.

Has anyone here been in a similar situation and found success outside of specific LGBT groups? Maybe by looking for particular series or types of cosplayer? I know a lot of Lesbians seem to gravitate around Lolita for example and Homestuck is trans* central if you're FTM, but I don't think there's anything for kawaii boys, BL cosplayers are almost exclusively women.

>>9113241
>cohabiting and sharing your life with a manchild

This is the future you chose

>>9113242
I imagine trying to be wholesome faggot tends to be pretty hard, because I notice there is a huge tendency for those who are gay to just do nothing but fuck or act like absolute degenerates (really makes you think)

God speed anon, I hope you find somebody n_n

I really fucking hate selling to people. I really fucking do.

>sell bjd
>received item
>I am a bit disappointed because make up is damage
>included pics
>it's not even that bad.
>looks like sealant was rubbed off

What should I do

>>9113245
He's normally nothing like this. I think he realized by himself what a baby he was being because he's actually cooking right now, like we agreed on earlier. Thank goodness, because I have no energy to argue about household chores after spending several hours assuring the dumb teenagers at my table that no, you don't need to sell an organ or whore yourself out to afford nice clothes.
I feel old.

>>9112886

>Skype Qik

I loved Skype Qik! Most people I know use SnapChat obviously, but SQ was great for cons because it was made for sending shit to groups of people and the messages lasted a week instead of a day. Going through the artist alley at Anime Expo was a lot easier because of it.

Shame it wasn't that popular.

>>9113258

Thanks for the encouragement but it doesn't actually 'make me think' anything of the promiscuity in the LGBT society, as it's bound to happen in any group that is unified by sexuality, especially in cosplay where most people are young and sexuality active, it happens with straight people all the time.

I don't really think this is 'degenerate' behaviour either, it's just not what I'm looking for. Maybe you don't know the connotations on 4chan but using that word will rub a lot of people here the wrong way, particularly as it's used as an actual homophobic slur as well as to troll and derail threads (as opposed to faggot, which has been part of the 4chan lexicon since forever).

Regardless, I appreciate the sentiment.

>>9113242
the only weeb gays i know are also furries... could try that as last resort

>>9112982
I got it from ebay 10+ years ago so I can't really say about the quality or seller of them now desu

I could probably finish my cosplay in time for a con next week because it's almost finished but it's head to toe black and we are experiencing a heatwave atm, so it's not like I'll be able to wear it for more than like 2 hours in the evening. And I don't have a backup because school has been kill for the last three years and I have no idea if I'll ever get back to a point where I have enough time to do anything but sleep and do school stuff...

>going to otakon for first time in a few years
>going with new group of cosplay friends
>nobody's going to want to hang out with me
>going to spend all weekend drinking and playing pokemon go alone

This is so lame but I'm still not feeling any better from this. All my friends are going to this brand event that has a high ticket price. I want to go with my SO too but he doesn't want to spend money on it and on matching coords since he's already spent enough traveling to see me. I totally understand and we talked about it and everything is rationally okay. Yet, I'm still feeling so upset and bummed. I'm really frustrated with myself, I want to get over it already. It's not fair to him either, I can't blame him but I also don't feel stable enough to talk to him. Hopefully venting out on here though will help...

>>9113242
Gay male lolita here. I'm fairly generic hipster outside of the fashion, but it takes up a pretty large portion of my hobbies and finding a potential SO who you can talk to about it is pretty much impossible. Also I've tried dating some of the weeb/cosplay/etc. gays in my area, but almost all of them are the "I'll use my real hair it's close enough" or "all cosplay is good cosplay because sj" type.

>>9113485

I don't really mind cosplay skill too much, I think someone who is into an anime enough will want to put in the effort regardless. For me it's just a case of finding someone who shares my sense of humor, hobbies and is meme-savvy enough.

I guess lolita attracts the homo gang for both genders, it's a shame because I like crossplay but I'm not really interested in lolita.

>>9111854
>>9111855

Maybe don't just tell her you want to keep it when you feel bad about it. If she's willing to pay twice what you paid her, maybe say you don't want to part with it but you'll help her hunt for another one in the same cut/color? That's what I would do at least.

>>9113122
Dump his ass. You deserve better. Think about how much happier you'll be with someone who actually cares about you.

>>9113527
>I guess lolita attracts the homo gang for both genders

As far as I can tell, not really. I only know of two other guys and only because they have some degree of e-fame attached to them. Everyone else is straight and/or a sissy. Doesn't really make a difference either way because if I had a J-fashion boyfriend I'd want him to be aristo so I could steal his Boz. Also why are there no gay aristocrats/oujis?

What I was trying to get across was that they were pretty casual-tier interest in anime, but using a cosplay example was probably not the best idea. You'd think there'd be more of us into anime stuff though, right?

>>9112928

Try crystal light, I keep a few flavors at work.

Also, you can get flavors with caffeine. I have one after breakfast most of the time.

Barely any calories, I think its 10 for 20 oz?

>>9113122

Possibly the first boyfriend post in a /cgl/ feels thread that will 100% deserve the OMG DUMP HIM posts

>>9113593

Sissies aren't gay?

Listen here little baby. You're gonna get a lot of hurtful and degrading comments, but that ain't what I'm about. Let me just say, you are perfect the way you are. You hear me sugar? PERFECT. Don't ever change. You deserve anything and everything you want. Stay safe for me, baby girl. You deserve better.

>mfw thinking of you hurting

>>9113593

Oh I see, I do actually like Ouji but I'm not a lifestyler and wear a lot of other types of J-Fashion and probably wouldn't bother with comms. Yeah it's definitely a shame, I'm actually at the stage where I'm looking at online communities - /a/ is only gay for 2D and tumblr is highly female dominated and hard to find specific people anyway. There's really no other way at cons aside from lingering at the yaoi stands hoping for a fateful encounter.

I think if there are any gay/bi male cosplayers they're going to be the burly /fit/ types who go for muscly characters and are very bro-ish, not a culture I like or fit into at all.

>>9113122
>>9113124
please break it off. your happiness and mental health is far more important. finish your cosplays to take your mind off of things. go to the con you've been looking forward to so much. take lots of pictures and selfies. make tons of friends. hell, buy weeb shit if that'll cheer you up. aim to have the most fun you can for YOUR sake.

sleeping with cosplayers just to get ANY sort of reaction from him means he still has control over you. if you find someone you genuinely like there, then sure, but there's no point of doing shit like that if it's to get back at someone, rather than to cheer yourself up.

after the con, don't humour him at all if he tries to contact you. instead, take some time to work out your mental issues and see that therapist. he purposely took a path that he knew would hurt you. just because he was 'honest' about it, doesn't make him any less of a scumbag. you deserve far better.

>>9113664
Just wondering. I'm Irish and 'scalding hot' seemed like an Irish thing to say, haha.

>>9111577
OP how often do you post that same damn pikachu image in these threads.

Expand your reaction image library. And that goes for lots of people in here, I swear I see certain images posted every single thread like they're the only ones people have.

>>9113678
They're ALL shorter than me, that should say. I'm sure my grammar is bad elsewhere, sorry, I'm tired and not a native speaker, but yeah, three of my closest friends are mad at me and one is having a break down all because I didn't do their cosplay measuring for them or whatever

>>9113683
Different Amerifat here, "scalding hot" is a pretty common phrase here

>>9113683
Ah, ok. I thought maybe tit-punching tea parties were an Oirish thing.

There's a girl in my comm who un-ironically spells "woman" with a "y."

>>9112473
The same fucking thing is happening to me anon. Productivity is down and I'm probably not going going to finish in time. :(

>>9113725
Is it really that surprising in this sphere of interests?

I've been trying to lose weight starting last week and I've been drinking so much water to keep from boredom-eating that now I feel like I'm going to vomit water

At least it's better than shoving food into my mouth I guess

>>9113468
Same boat as you, let's be loners and play Pokemon GO together.

>>9113468
>>9113786
Everyone in the world is playing Pokemon Go right now. Your con's Pokestops are going to be lit 24/7, and you'll make loads of friends.

I just found out that my friends are flaking on Anime Weekend Atlanta, and I'll have to find my own room. Oh shit.

one of my best friends has said for months that she'll come with me to a con in two weeks on the other side of the country but she still hasn't bought her badge or her plane ticket. she's flaked on me so often in the past, has insisted that she'll make it to this one, and i'm afraid that now that she has a new boyfriend, she's flaking on me to spend time with him.

she claims she is buying my ticket to a con later this year that we've talked about attending for years, but she's apparently finally motivated enough to go now that this guy she's seeing is going, and i honestly don't know if i want to attend if it means being third wheel to a "best friend" who routinely puts me on the back burner for the sake of whomever she's dating.

i feel really petty for thinking that way, but i've never let my romantic relationships dictate how much time and energy i put into my friends, definitely not one of my best friends, and it's really frustrating that she'll agree to go to a con we've talked about for years with some guy she's been seeing for a few months and is probably going to flake on me yet again for him. especially since we don't get to see each other often. she still actively calls me her best friend and stuff, so i don't think it's a case of she's moved past our friendship and i need to too, but i'm really sick of feeling disappointed. i can't be the only one who thinks platonic friendships are just as important as romantic relationships, right?

sorry for the ramble. i'm not even motivated to finish my half of our cosplay duo for this con, seeing as she might not even be there.

>>9113122
Thats unacceptable. At least he told you? He fucked her the same week you were talking about moving in together? Oh so the girl is aparently insanely hot and easy so they fuck? Yeah no anon. You are worth more than that, hes trying to use excuses to stay with you and keep you in his life because you are worth it but he doesnt want to do the bare minimum of staying faithful in a relationship. Thats sad and hes not worth it. I know breaking up hurts but its gonna be ok. What if you didnt anon. What if you stay with him and some guy or guys like you but you wont know because you are already with someone else? With his mentality any relationship he has he will ruin and you are worth much more than taking care of and sharing your life with someone who only will use you as a placeholder when other women arent around. You go anon. You go do things that make you happy and try and forget about this jerk and i hope everyones support on here makes you feel like you arent alone in this.

that's some sound advice guys :D


warning: only my own personal experience here, but staying a year in a relationship after my partner cheated on me (the other person told me, partner did not) was hell.

after a sexual romance loses trust, it's hell, not love anymore.

i've been single for 5 years by choice, and i'm 24. i'm just trying to better myself until i meet someone that meets my standards and everything about them is available

>>9114322

>I've been single for 5 years by choice

I've been single for 22 years, mostly by choice because although i've been told i'm fairly attractive I can't talk to boys for shit

>>9114375
22 years? well if it's a confidence issue, you can fix that easily. just look online for some self help material or some books irl.

22 years a a long time though, wait, are you 22 years old lol?

I was thinking of tinkering around with an led chaser but wasn't sure if I wanted to go all the way and get an arduino or just stay small like I usually do with ICs and it turns out the old electronics kit my brother gave me years ago had the chip I'd need and it still works and it's too late right now to really do much but sleep but I can't wait to try it out

;_; what do
I don't want this to be ruined for me but I'm already pretty scared of everything in general and now after all this, it's obviously even worse.

I'm not even sure what I'm more scared of, taking the train alone or the con itself.

>>9114482
Time to start that laundry then anon!

>>9114487
why? the malll shooter? germany is probs super safe with upped security after that.

nice daaburusu.

also, it's a quarter passed 3 XD only crackheads to laundry at this hour

>>9114490
>why? the malll shooter? germany is probs super safe with upped security after that.

That was the only incident in the last couple of days that got international attention.

There was also someone going on a rampage in a commuter train with an axe, then another one with a machete on a shoppign street and just this night a bomb at a festival entrance.

So yeah, right now you should watch your ass and be careful.

>>9114491
oh i may have heard of the others as well, just didn't register that it was in germany


be careful!

>>9114490
The mall shooter, the guy attacking people with an axe and knife on a train, the other guy killing someone with a machete, the guy who blew himself up but was trying to get into a concert (luckily he was denied access) and all the (apparently non-functional? but still worrying) bombs that were found over the weekend.

I'm hoping for upped security as well.

I'm having flashbacks to former friends who openly admitted to being friendly with me simply because it was fun to fuck with me as I'm a very naive person who thinks highly and positively of mostly anyone I meet. I feel so fucking horrible right now for thinking badly of this person who has proven time and time again that they mean well, I'm sure they're just busy as they're going through some big changes in life, but fuck I'm freaking the hell out about this.
Don't even really care about the fact that I'll have a massive fat red minus on my bank account after this con, I just don't want to lose another friend and be proven wrong about the way that I look at people yet again.

>>9114487
You're probably at least ten times more likely to die from an accident.

>>9114622
aw man that is rough.

I'd try and look on the fourms anyway. It's the only way to save it. Say what you prefer: non-smokers (of anything), same sex, upfront pay, no party, asleep by 4 am.

Haha what why
Why even ask for it

>>9114622

You'd be surprised how well rooming with people from the con's forums can be. The shit you read on /cgl/ is all one in a million chances and even just plain falsehood sometimes. Require cash up front (through PayPal if possible, before you even get to the con, so you can deposit it if your PP is attached to your bank account), don't let anyone into the room without paying first, and be very firm about any other rules that will make you feel more comfortable.

>>9114634
Sadly the room is a single. 0 floor space, but the bed is a large single with room for 2 adults as long as they're ok with brushing against each other.
I'm super uncomfortable with even hugging most of my friends already, so there is a fair chance it would mess my convention up even more if I brought a stranger into my only private space.
I am almost beyond the point of really caring about the money. Don't want that shit to come in between a friendship. I'm just worried that is has and there's nothing I can do about it anymore.

>>9114639
Wait. Do you still exchange phone numbers? Isn't easier to add people on Facebook? I mean, time has changed and this feels really old and not even a good method to get people to communicate imo

>>9114646

It would feel really odd to me to ask someone for their facebook.

Also, it's much more convenient to communicate if you have their number than on facebook.

>>9114434

Yeah, i'm 22 years old. Not to go into a sob story, but when i was younger my family moved a lot. We weren't stationary until I was 14. I had friends and all, I just couldn't commit to something like a relationship and was too scared something would come up and we would move and I would have to abandon it.

So I can't work up a whole lot of courage to talk to boys. The few times I have it doesn't work out because we don't have a lot in common, they laugh at me, or they just want to get with my friends. I did try self-hypnosis a few times and that worked really well, so i doubt i need books.

I've been called attractive by guys before, but my interests and hesitation might be off-putting

>>9114683
ouji is lolita with pants. do it, anon.

>>9112875

This is why i'm afraid to live to strangers. I mean for starters i'm paranoid they'll laugh and ruin my costumes, but also I don't want to deal with shit like smoking or what not or them not paying rent.

I start a new job in two months, and my roommate search has been lame.

>>9114796

look, /r9k/, we get it, you're some dipshit that's too sensitive to any criticism about your personality.

You sound like an naive arrogant cunt. A combo that does not bode well.

>>9114837
>that post

I dunno where you made up all that from.

I definitely admit I have problems. But, saying it's easy to fix is the same as telling anyone else with a problem that it's easy to fix.

You don't tell someone with depression that it's easy to fix do you?

Asking for tumblr is easier.

Nobody uses phones to call anymore and Facebook is way too invasive (and lame)

tumblr is better because you get to follow them without getting too close, you don't come across as desperate and you get to learn their aesthetic and the things that make them tick, plus there's direct messaging if they actually do want to speak to you.

Asking a girl or guy for their number is kind of creepy, same as facebook - but tumblr is fair game. It's the difference between "I want to get to know you better" and "Please hand me the keys to your entire social circle".

Tumblr kids are way too cowardly to hassle you outside of their internet safe space. Go for it! Just don't wear blackface, obvi.

Found out today I get a promotion! I'll at the very least earn about 10k more than I do now. I don't have a whole lot of living expenses, but I can finally pay off my college loan within the foreseeable near future. I don't have a lot left thankfully.

As soon as I get my first paycheck though, I'm going to buy a dream dress or two.

>>9115554
congrats!

At the park where I hit pokestops there are lots of little kids running around playing but also cliques of neckbeards camped at the gyms for hours. I feel bad for the kids, they don't stand a chance. I kind of want to make a bunch of pins or buy a big lot of Ash hats on aliexpress to hand out to the kids I pass playing but not teenagers.
What is even the point of camping a gym. You only get the coin bonus once a day, plus It's easier to run around to populated areas to fight gyms for experience too because they trade hands so often that they never make it to a high enough level to be a problem.

>>9111773
>>tfw no /cgl/ gf

Don't even bother. It's not that great.

I dated a girl from /cgl/ and she broke up with me once she gained some confidence and got her life together. There's no love in the relationship. She isn't going to be loyal to you unless you're super successful, hot looking, interesting, funny, etc, etc etc.

Otherwise if you're a typical average looking guy content with retail work t hen she'll dump you in 6 months.

>>9115587

>typical average guy content with retail

That's not average and you sound like a loser, no one wants to date some guy who works at the mall.

>>9115588

okay anon get a credit card and use it. it's better than overdrafting since you can pay it off on your own pace with just a bit of interest. You seem to know to not abuse it to get you into further debt so I highly recommend doing this.

Nah, it's not even a Lolita comm. I seem to have missed the whole eyebrows thing, don't even know who that is. Archive link?

>>9111854
If she is your friend, sell it back to her and learn the lesson not to buy from friends. If not a friend just tell them you don't want to sell it. Or if you are greedy and it's not such a rare dress, sell it back for double, re-buy elsewhere and, profit?

>>9114322
>i've been single for 5 years by choice, and i'm 24. i'm just trying to better myself until i meet someone that meets my standards and everything about them is available

Life and relationships doesn't work that way though. The most you can do is learn to accept yourself and hope that you can find someone who loves you how you are and will do what it takes to want to better themselves for you while you do the same for them. You can't expect to hit everything on your wishlist but you can hope for someone who wants to do better for you

>>9116059
As long as you don't hold unrealistic standards, this is not wishing for too much, Anon. Good for you for not just settling or engaging in 'in the meantime' relationships that go nowhere. Investing in yourself is always the best choice. Then you can actually be ready when the good opportunities come along.

Its possible, i knew a girl who eloped with her Canadian boyfriend and they live happily together now and she basically lives in his basement as a trophy wife like that.

She always got excited about deliveries and other such things, and he doesn''t let her work or do anything for herself really so there isn't much stimulation in her life so i could see this situation unfold, the world is a strange place sometimes

My boyfriend has a BSC in information systems. He graduated summa cum laude. He landed at least a dozen interviews immediately after graduation, but they all turned him down for lack of experience.

I'll probably try out Crystal Light. I've tried others before like Mio, but my issue is that I can taste artificial sweeteners and it leaves a really bad aftertaste for me (I've even tried stuff like Stevia, we've got a ton of that where I work and it's just not the same for me). I just have to make sure to read the labels of things to make sure that it's real sugar, or just unsweetened things.

Since friendly gym battles are the only way to get in some sparring with fellow player friends for now, that's probably what they are doing. The kids should join in and learn. Or you could just take the gym and encourage the kids to challenge you so they can practice too.

Average girl is 5'5 check your privilege

>>9116591
Move to Scandinavia, you'll be shorter than most (younger) people here. Or donate that height to me so I can finally be taller than 170 cm.

>>9116609
This, I have Scandinavian genes and the last time I was 5'3" was in fourth grade. Ended up being 5'8" and then somehow shrank half an inch sometime in my late 20s.

>>9116591
>>9116655
>female
>178cm tall

>>9116668
the alternative is believing that a guy would admit to being that short. but you do you I guess.

>tfw a crazy manipulative ex has made you simultaneously gayer than you have ever been in your life but terrified of gay women to the extent that you feel panicky if a girl even compliments you in a vaguely flirty way

I guess I'm going to spend the next 30 years crying to Tegan and Sara and rewatching girly movies with homoerotic friendships then. t-thanks babe

>>9116668
Scandinavians are, as earlier mentioned, freakishly tall. I have four female friends who are 180+ (two of them also love heels), and I'm the tiny dwarf friend at 169.

>>9116591
You'll be sorry you are so short if you ever put on a few pounds as an adult (and most people do).
Nowhere to hide it.
I'll take being 170cm any day, I can gain ten pounds and no one can even tell.
Almost 6 feet tall in heels and feel like a model. F-yeah. Still look good in lolita when I wear smaller heels or flats. Best of both.

>>9116675
The average height of a male in my country is 5'8". I met a guy at a bar once, whilst sat at said bar. His face when I stood up in heels, at 6'0"+. He still danced with me though? His height didn't bother me desu.

>>9116689
I need some Scandinavian friends. My friend was refused entry to a rollercoaster, as she was under the height limit. She's 26 years old. I never did get to ride that rollercoaster, as I didn't want to leave her out. We ended up going on the kids rides. Which was actually quite fun.

>>9116591
I'll never understand average height girls that want to be short. I'm barely 5 feet tall and I'd perform a blood sacrifice to be tall.

Being short fucking sucks, I'll never have gorgeous legs.

>>9116497

For carbonated flavored water I can't really taste it. It's good and comes in a lot of flavors, but a lot of them probably have artificial shit in them for sure.

I've been drinking it for over a year and its helped a lot. I also stopped drinking Orange Juice, because it's nothing but acid and sugar. I switched to veggie juice, and even if V8 is a meme it's worked a hell of a lot better.

Now every few weeks or so if I want a little treat I have one of those Calypso lemonades, which while having a fair amount of sugar is just too damn good.

>>9116729
You will if you are quite thin. But I think shorter girls have a hard time disguising any excess weight at all and that can make them look shorter and quite a bit wider than they actually are.
But hey, most shorties are more kawaii naturally, can wear burando shoes, get blouses with nice long sleeve length and wear shorter length dresses without using any underskirt so there are definite advantages.

>>9117087

I know what that's like. Moving in with your folks will still save you money on food plus no rent (unless your parents want you to pay for your share of utilities). You can wear some of your older costumes to cons instead of making new ones, as it's probably cheaper to touch them up then make completely new ones.

If you're close to where you work taking the bus would save on gas, or you could bike. Also if you're no longer/never were on a family plan for cell phone service you can just switch to prepaid. If you're near wifi a lot this can be good way to save a little money (buy as many minutes as you think you need, and send texts/photos via apps like Skype/LINE/GroupMe/Messenger when you can)

>>9117216
They just look like semi-opaque white tights, anon. So probably any high street department store or we love colors, their tights are semi-opaque like this.

>>9117280
Focus on making it decently this time, then add the pretty detail. A broken costume is shit no matter how 'nice' it looks. Typical of cgl though, concentrate on what shows most and not enough on the substance of something. Not everyone but many.

>>9116591
Are you sure you measured yourself correctly? I one time tried to measure myself with a tape measurer and it came out to 5'5 but then when I went to the doctors they said I was 5'4. Tbh I don't think 5'4 is all that tall though I get people telling me I'm short all the time but then again those people are usually guys who are tall

There were so many years where I could have worn lolita on a near daily basis but didn't, and I want to go back in time and slap myself for it.

>guess I'm just gonna sit at home by myself on weekends and wear lolita

Used to browse this place some years back when I was a fairly overweight shut-in.
Stopped around the time I started working out with the help of a friend who wanted to do cosplays together.
He dropped it a few months into it but I had been really enjoying it all along and made a habit out of it, soon it branched out into other physical activity like rock climbing and canoeing and I was spending a lot more time outside.

For some years I lost contact with my cosplay friend. Two days ago I ran into him and he looked completely gone: pale as shit, huge eyebags, random streaks of color in his hair, baggy clothes stinking of weed etc. What's worse, I could see him trying to hide some intense resentment as we talked.
And in truth I felt repulsed by the thought of ending like that as well.

So I open this board again, see this thread and tell my life story apparently.
We're all gonna make it, and your husbandos are all terrible.

>>9116591
Self measuring is notoriously inaccurate, even if you're using a proper height measurement at a doctor's office - just the movements required to line up the top of your head with whatever you're using to measure can make you vary 1-2cm. Also time of day - you're approximately 1cm shorter in the evening if you do normal walking, sitting etc. during the day due to the effects of gravity.

Alright /cgl/

I haven't posted here for like 3-4 yrs or so (stopped when the Tumblr invaded & won)

That's why shorties need to stay on the thin side to be stylish, everything in the super-cheap Chinese world of fast fashion fits so cute if you are petite and aren't a pudge-bucket. J-fashion too if you like that and want to pay for it.

>Need to start selling burando and probably my Transformers collection but too depressed to start

When will this end? I just want my poor cat to stop suffering. He is my fave and he is so sweet.

How the fuck are you this much of a push over? I would have kicked him out of my bed and made him sleep on the floor or the chair. You paid for that bed but you let some fuckhead steal it for two days.

It might sound harsh but the best way for the cat to stop suffering might be to have it put down. All of those problems can't be commonplace for a cat a year old

>>9118015
I hope your kitty gets better soon, anon. I couldnt bear to lose my kitties. My thoughts are with you. ;-;

Sissies and crossdressers tend to be straight.

You can't say that you've been single for 22 years if you're 22 lol. No one really expects you to be getting some before high school so at most you've been single 8 years. It would be less weird if you just said that you're 22 and never had a bf.

What did he mean by this?

I need to rant because God fucking damn cosplayers who are like "I really want to go to con. Send me money" and people actually send them cash.

But when my sister who was born disabled and can't fucking walk needs a wheelchair we need to jump through bloody hoops to try and get enough money together for one.

>"I really want to go to con. Send me money"
It's not really a cosplayer thing, they're just women so they feel entitled to the money naturally. #GiveMoneyToWomen #ReparationsForMisogyny

Well, you learn something new every day I guess.

I would have never figured that, guess I just figured if they were wearing female clothes they were trying to attract dudes?

Good to know though.

>everything's too long and baggy
You're on /cgl/, learn how to sew.

Unless you have clothing custom-made, you're going to have to face hemming your own things for the rest of your life.
