BMI isn't very useful.

it's fairly accurate for people who are underweight, not so much for those who are overweight since most bodybuilders would be considered categorically obese

it's used to predict body fat% based on AVERAGE stats, and there's not really a better universal system that doesn't require a lot more effort (like having everyone get tested for bf%)

My Band of Brothers has once again disbanded, leaving me alone until June.
But I met this really crazy J-Fashion wearing girl today into costume design, cosplay and lolita.
It was pretty cool, I've yet to meet someone into character design like I am, so it's neat having
a common ground with someone on something like that for once.

I didn't really get to talk about that kind of stuff with her a lot though, she's really eccentric and despite
it only being her second day as a freshman here, she managed to gather an entourage quickly.
So I spent a few hours bumming around with these guys and they were pretty cool. The thing about this
area is that nobody is really unpleasant, they just keep to themselves, and she just was making friends left and right.
I asked and it turns out she's country, so she sees nothing wrong with being friendly and sociable.

Nice day, hopefully I'll talk to them again soon since I'm kind of alone.

I had a similar BMI and had the deal with those exact feels. I still couldn't slip into anything smaller than a fucking size four, thunderous thighs, full ass, fat arms;

I've always hung around the underweight mark but I never had that lanky, legs the same thickness of your arms physique that almost all teens seem to have. I end up thinking that if most people were that skinny looking as teens and those same teens will likely grow into full/chuncky adults...what hope do I have?

To make matters worse it isn't uncommon for me to run into people who are a foot shorter than me that look as slim or slimmer at the same weight.

I have enough trouble going outside due to social anxiety and my ugry face - but heading downtown is hell because it seems like EVERYONE and their grandmother has a better figure than me.

It's useful for most average people between the ages of 18-75ish, as the healthy ranges are associated with long term health outcomes.

>I have enough trouble going outside due to social anxiety and my ugry face - but heading downtown is hell because it seems like EVERYONE and their grandmother has a better figure than me.
Are you me? I have trouble going out for exactly the same reasons. Usually I just wear sunglasses or a knit hat to town to conceal my face, but even then I feel uncomfortable because people can still partly see me. Talking to people is hard too, because of my social anxiety, but the realization that they are looking at my face and seeing how ridiculously ugly and fat I am makes it about 100% more awful. Maybe I should just convert to Islam and start wearing a burqa.
Sorry for the dumb rant.

Dying pet anon from the last thread. She's completely stopped eating anything at all and can hardly walk now. We've decided to put her to sleep tomorrow morning. I know it's the right decision, and the place we're taking her has a special room to make it more comfortable for everyone involved. They give you a little clay paw print with the name in it too. We're gonna take her back here and bury her in our yard next to our last dog. I'm worried about how my boxer will react to my Jack Russell's death. The boxer already looks for her when we take her alone on walks. I know she'll be lonely but I don't want another "replacement dog" right away. But I'm sure I'll be smothering her after we put Jackie to sleep so maybe she'll be okay.
On the one hand I know it's the right decision. The only alternative is a slow and very uncomfortable death. I'm glad I'll get to be there with her and to say goodbye and pet her while she goes.
But I still find myself wanting to be selfish and have her pass at home, in her sleep. But I think that's just to give myself more time with her, and it's only prolonging her suffering.

Because you could just not be playing your cards right. A common problem I've run into with guys in the past is this fear of rejection for wanting to be emotionally intimate, so they just retreat inward to avoid problems since they aren't exactly outgoing to begin with.

Obviously there's limits to it, like I'm not going to baby you and let you bitch about everything, that's just annoying. But I am willing to do that stupid mushy sweet stuff most people look down on.

For the most part we agree on how ridiculous Tumblr feminism is, but he's still one of those guys who thinks that "Hey baby nice tits." is a legitimate compliment.

I keep trying to explain to him that the only girl who is going to respond well to "Hey baby nice tits." is going to be just as slutty as the guy who says it. You don't approach a girl like that unless you only want casual sex and a girl doesn't respond well to that unless SHE only wants casual sex.

I'm a CS major. Some of my peers are socially challenged (usually in harmless ways though, and to be fair I'm also a social retard) and a few guys have decided that my being a woman in a comp sci class means I am totally asking for their attention even if I'm clearly not. Occasionally random guys will come up to me during or between classes while I'm working on things and talk at me. I've gotten some weird ones, like guys who thought I needed to be interrgated to determine my purpose in the major and guys who told me... just the weirdest things about themselves, and not flattering things, there have been two guys that came up to me and told me about their criminal records.

But it's not really that bad because none of my courses require social interaction and there aren't any consequences to ignoring and avoiding creepy guys. Most of my peers are just regular people going to class because they want a degree. There are more women than I thought there'd be, too.

The criminal record guys both seemed to be fishing for sympathy; they wanted me to validate their views that they hadn't done anything wrong. I wasn't rude, but I didn't agree that they were blameless victims, so they gave up on me pretty fast.

Yeah this. 1 in 4 people get to deal with a mental illness sometime in their lives. Basically it's nearly as common as physical illness. The only reason the statistics used to be different is that science wasn't able to research this shit properly in the past by lack of knowledge and necessary hospital equipment.

>mildly uncomfortable in an understandably awkward social situation
That's not social anxiety, that's a normal reaction to such a situation. People with social anxiety usually experience panic attacks in those situations, and let me tell you, those aren't pretty. Also people with social anxiety or basically any mental illness have different brain activity from a healthy person, so you can deny the truth all you want, the facts still prove you are wrong.

Why can't you move out of home? Are there any women's shelters in the area? I was literally in the exact same position as you were about a week ago, until I ended up in hospital on an order for a psych evaluation, because I was talking to a suicide hotline and basically said I was going to kill myself that evening. I got home from the hospital and said to myself "well, I've hit rock bottom, the only way to go from here is up", got my shit together, called a dv hotline, they hooked me up with a shelter, and I left. I've only been in the refuge for two days but I'm already feeling a whole lot better because I'm not constantly living in fear.

Are there any resources like that in your area? Because honestly it will do you a world of good, anon. Once you get out of that toxic environment, everything will start to look brighter. It will be rocky, sure, because it's a total upheaval of your life, and you'll probably cry yourself to sleep every night for however long it takes, but you'll be in a safe space, with people who can help you. They'll not only help you with trauma related stuff but they'll be able to help you get your life on track, like finding housing and shit.

>lose most of my cosplay friends due to their fame in the local cosplay scene
>start thinking that i'm kind of glad that they basically threw me out of their lives because of a lot of weird shit they did like:
A) They'd go on about how JNig/Yaya and such are awful and that they "try too hard" with their sex appeal, yet they follow her on every social media platform they can, share her photos, etc. and talk about how much they basically look up to her. like holy shit make up your mind, do you like her or hate her?
B) They only really messaged me for cosplay advice or when they were feeling shitty about their appearances/cosplays and needed a motivation boost, or computer repair/help or something mundane like that.
C) They used to make fun of cosplayers like right beside me. That shit makes me uncomfortable as fuck. They'd be like "Oh my god, did you see that X cosplay? It's so shitty, I cosplayed it so much better, oh my god.", cue obnoxious giggling and such too. Save that shit for /cgl/ and stop making 13 year olds feel inadequate, you're both adults.
D) They're constantly drunk. Like, I like drinking at cons and going to afterparties, it's nice, but they're drunk before, during and after the con. How do you enjoy cons like that?

I just want new cosplay friends, but I have no idea how to interact with new people unless I'm being introduced to someone through a friend because anxiety and stuff. And I won't be able to even attempt that for a while because I'm pretty broke, so I'll have to wait a bit before going to any conventions. ;;

I have a similar situation.
My bf is the kindest, most patient person in the world. Really, he is lovely, but we grew apart because he doesn't like anything I like and he doesn't want to do anything other than play video games. When I talk to him it feels like talking to a wall, like he's letting it in on one ear and letting it out the other.
We hadn't had sex in months and the last time he couldn't even go halfway without getting bored. I don't want him to only do it because of me, but that seems to be the case. I'm very inexperienced and my awkwardness turns him off, he wants someone dominant in bed and I'm just not that kind of person.
When we did have sex he only did everything until I orgasmed, then he jacked off to porn (sorry for the TMI), yet he denies that I don't attract or arouse him. I'm fine if I don't really, I just want him to tell the truth.

I feel like some kind of a lamp because he says he loves me yet doesn't talk to me. He won't tell me about his problems unless I pry, won't tell me anything, just shuts me off.

I love him and it hurts to leave him but anytime I tell him I can't do this anymore he starts crying and says I'm just scared and that I don't mean it. We've been together for almost two years and lately I started daydreaming about perfect fantasy boyfriends, I even fell so low to have gotten an animu husbando; it just feels so unfair to him and I feel like an awful person for thinking those things.

I don't even think I'm a good girlfriend, I think I'm spoiled and selfish, but he loves me all the same and it makes me feel so shitty because it's exhausting to be like this but I don't want to look like a giant bitch for leaving him.

>>At this point it feels like we're simply together because we don't want to be alone

I think it's okay to not want to be alone. Think of your relationship as a house: when you move into the house, you do so because it has all the qualities you were looking for, so burning it down would be counter-intuitive and the opposite of beneficial. Don't feel like you're a horrible person simply because you don't want to be homeless.

If you think the metaphorical house needs some maintenance, use your words.

Tell him "Hey, honey, I feel like I'm not getting what I need.I want this out of the relationship. Getting this would make me happy." And if he doesn't want to give you the love and attention you need to be happy, then it just might be time to cut ties and move on, so that you can find someone who will. And if that's the case, that's okay.

It'll hurt, but you'll be okay. You can do this. My heart goes out to you, anon. Try not to be so hard on yourself.

[Anonymous No.7775253]

>>7775249
Eh, just so the metaphor stays intact, if he's not willing to give you love and attention that will make you happy, that's the metaphorical house catching on fire, and that means you gotta move to another metaphorical house.

For your safety and stuff.

Yeah. Good luck.

Anon, I really feel you here. I was in a 3 year relationship which completely sucked the life out of me.
We started off head over heels for each other, but about a year in things turned toxic. Swearing at me, yelling at me in public, getting angry about things outside of my control.
>You fell asleep on me! Why did I bother to come over? (after just finishing an 8 hour shift)
>I can't do anything around you without you getting bothered by it! (in response to my misophonia)
They treated me like I'd always be around for them no matter what they did, and that I was nothing more than a punching bag. It was the worst 2 years of my life. But I was an idiot, and I let them get away it. I was even stupid enough to be surprised when the inevitable breakup came. I was heartbroken for the first few months and could barely even function. But anon, after that time passed and I came to understand the situation, I realized what happened was a damn blessing. Don't settle for something damaging just because it makes you feel better temporarily. I have to walk around knowing what I let this person do to me, and knowing that other people know too. Friends of hers, old friends of mine. If I had any sense, I would have left the moment that shit started.
I'm lonely, yes. But being lonely is so much better than forcing yourself into a shoe that doesn't fit, and as a result suffering in the long-term.

I'm not crazy for expecting a heads up on this right? She's a close friend and I did all the shoots for free because I just wanted to help her out. Not saying that I expect money because it's not like she's making profit from prints but she should have at least run the idea by me? I feel like I should confront her about this (although I don't expect her to dump the business cards she has already made) because if not then she won't know that I actually have a problem with this but I don't know how to go about telling her. I feel like she might get defensive and it might hurt our friendship. That being said, she knows how careful I am about my pictures so she should have been a bit more sensitive towards how I might feel about this.

My grandmother has Alzheimer's, as well. When I went to go visit her, she seemed sad. I was wearing an Otome-ish outfit that day, which she seemed to really like. She said "You're so pretty."
I said "You're pretty, too, grandma."
She looked down and said "I want to look like you."
I nearly cried, because iktf, Grandma. So, to remind her, I said "Grandma, the reason I'm pretty is because you are beautiful."
She reached out and hugged me for the longest time. We spent the rest of the night singing and chatting with one another. That night was the most wonderful.

>worked full-time this summer = money for brand, whoo!
>dealing with future career and living plans though
>can't decide if should apply for a new job here and stay, or if I should go back home/parents' house and save money

Pros: I don't have to live with my parents, my current rent is super cheap, and I could afford to go all out with decorating my room shabby chic style (kind of working on it at the moment)

>Cons: I fucking hate apartments and living with other people (I can deal with it, but I prefer living by myself or with one other quiet person like myself) - especially in a college setting. I work in the mornings, so I can't really do the whole partying, night owl life style (I'm so over it).

>also, I'm probably going to be in charge of paying for rent on top of saving away for loan payments

Another anon with a grandparent with Alzheimer's. I spoke with my dad last night who visited his dad a few weeks ago. My grandpa's not doing well with it and prostate issues. So he may not have much longer. He's planning to visit again later next month and I want to go with him since I may not see him again and I want him to see his great grandson before he passes on.

At least his estate is settled and he has power of attorney to his care giver so we don't have issues like when my grandmother died. She didn't have a proper will so her then husband took everything and left her kids nothing.

No you cant eat 500 calories a day that isnt healthy and is unsustainable the second you start eating the weight will come back.

I dont think you calculated your TDEE right or you are a midget. at 4'5 and 100lbs a female with a sedentary lifestyle (no activity at all) would have a TDEE between 1242 and 1494 depending on the calculator. So the best bet would be calculate a more accurate TDEE first but im guessing it would good enough to eat around 1000-1100 calories and do enough activity so you are at a 500 calorie a day deficit and you will lose a pound a week. Its not fast but its consistent and healthy and can be maintained long term just up your food intake or lower the exercise when you reach your goal weight.

Been reading Tintin this past week and it's made me really, really want a pair of plus-fours for casual wear. (Except I think I'd have to go for plus-twos on account of being quite short.) But I don't want to be mistaken for being a golfer in public or something, and they're expensive if I end up looking dumb or if they're too big/small. Haven't even found a place that specifically makes any for women yet.

I wear lolita out, sometimes by myself, but it's (somewhat historical) western trousers that I'm getting all weird about what the hell

There's a /cgl/ friend thread. Maybe you can find a friend there. I had like three people message me even though I'm an unbearable weaboo and you can smell it from my post. It gave me hope and I met nice people. Give it a try, anon.

Also, hey, you're not a slut. A slut by definition is (A) a woman who has many casual sexual partners. or (B) A woman with low standards of cleanliness. You said you stayed with him for 3 years, right? I wouldn't call that a casual sexual partner. I'd call that a relationship. Sex in an adult relationship is a natural and beautiful way of bonding. Don't be ashamed. Your mom lost her virginity. That doesn't automatically make her a slut, does it? If it did, then everybody's moms would be sluts. And not all of them are, right? I also assume you're hygienic, so relax, don't allow these /r9k/ vultures to bring you down even further because they throw words around without knowing their meaning. Arm yourself with knowledge, girl. That shit is priceless.

If that were me, I would focus on healing emotionally before going into another relationship, because I strongly believe in the concept that we have to love ourselves enough in order to let ourselves love others fully. I understand why you're crying, because, guuurl, I'd be cryin', too. Don't let yourself get trapped in self-hatred, though, because hating yourself feels like shit and it prevents us from loving ourselves enough to move on and grow as people and live happy, fulfilling lives.

So cry a little, it's okay to feel like crap, but know when to wipe the tears away and go outside. I think signing up for volunteering is a great way to get outside and make connections, because you get to talk to other people and help them, as well. Helping people makes me feel better. I think it'll help you feel better, too. Plus it looks fan-fucking-tastic on your resume, and talking to others will definitely help you overcome your social anxiety. Good luck, anon, I wish you the best.

Yes, that. Nowadays the psychological field has done more studies and research about several mental conditions compared to the past, so stuff that 20 years ago was believed to be another thing, now is know to be a mental condition or discovering new stuff. Human brain is a very complex part and still science need to discover several things about how works and how the mental issues generate.

You might be looking at the wrong series. There are a number of sports and action series that you may want to look into.

On the sports front:
- Eyeshield 21 (American football)
- Yowamushi Pedal (cycling)
- Baki the Grappler (martial arts)

Most sports series seem to be geared towards female audiences so there aren't a TON of characters with realistic athletic builds, but they're out there. Consider cosplaying from fighting games too.

I think you'd make a great Guts from Berserk if you're willing to put in the effort, as well.

How did you know

[Anonymous No.7776926]

>>7775890
I went through what you were going through a few years ago and it's not as bad as you'd think. Be more careful of who you let extremely close to you.
My ex told me that no one would deal with my mental issues and that I "could never make it in the real world without him". What you need to do is rebuild your world from the ground up. I know this is hard with social anxiety, but try attending a hobby based group (lolita meets if you're into that, con meetups if you're more into cosplay, even something in your hometown/at your university works). Even if you're awkward at first, you're making steps to meet people and soon enough your efforts will pay off. Focus on whatever it is that you do (school, job, both perhaps) and do it well, success always makes you feel better.
I also agree with what a previous anon said, try to stay away from relationships and focus on you. If you're in your early 20's its kind of the time for that. Any relationship you get in after the one you just got out of might just be out of loneliness/need for someone close, but it will only end up bad. Stay strong, anon!

Considering this a lot lately. Especially since he's foreign, doesn't speak English, and I'm in charge of learning to communicate. Spoke the language with a mutual friend for the first time today and he told me in English "lol i dont know what the fuck you just said."
That reply just made me want to completely give up. I've always been paranoid worrying about how many times bf hasn't understood me and didn't bother correcting or trying to figure it out. I love him but I feel like I don't deserve him at all or that I'm annoying him with my efforts to communicate. Completely retarded thought, but I feel it all the same.

I'm so nervous about hanging out, and I'm so used to being disregarded or ignored, that I jump in whenever I get excited and want to say something. Even while I'm talking I see them just looking at me silently like, "What the fuck, let us finish a fucking story."

I don't want to blow this, I'm so tired of being lonely. I think I just need to relax and trust that even if I lose my thought, or the conversation shifts too fast for me to contribute, it's better than fucking sperging out on them all the time.

Thanks, this helps.

The hardest part is when they're discussing problems I have solutions for, or information about, because not only do I get nervous about not participating, I feel guilty if I don't "share," as if I am personally making their issue worse by letting them remain ignorant.

In my case, I think growing up with 5 siblings is a major contributor. Like puppies who are born in big breeder kennels who, long after they're adopted, become aggressively panicked when it's time to eat. We had a dog who gave herself stomach problems because she kept eating too much, too quickly, like she was still in competition for food even when she was the only dog in the house.

nayrt but that's not it at all. I'm fairly meek as well and have always been interrupted/never given the chance to speak, so I've learned to jump in whenever I can, even if the other person hasn't finished their thought yet. It's a bad habit, but it's something you develop when you're only ever around people who love to hear themselves talk.

This is exactly what I'm talking about. You're not concerned with what the other person has to say, all you care about is making sure you get to speak. Whatever that's born out of is irrelevant. You're still only thinking about yourself and not actually listening to the other person.
