I sincerely hope you don't sew anything for him again. It sounds like he made some easy money without putting in any of the labor so I wouldn't be surprised to hear this happens again. I'd also say if he has a history of doing this shit then you should re-examine your friendship. Don't become his cash cow and don't let him wreck your self esteem ( which it really looks like he's doing). I don't know if he wants you in the position of doubting yourself just to use you or if he's justifying not giving you anything by saying your hard work is "shit." Either way it doesn't sound like he's that great of a person to be friends with.

Ugh. At least I pay all my bills before I buy that Chinese crap, fuck.

When she visited me in the hospital while I was trying to recover from the whole thing, she tried to tell me that she wasn't too extreme and should have parented by "temperament" What kind of child has the temperament to withstand physical and psychological torture? And who the fuck refers to a child's personality as "temperament?" I'm not a fucking dog woman. She didn't even feel bad after I had to go to the hospital a second time for PTSD for another two months, didn't call, didn't visit. I've spent over four months this year in the hospital for this and sacrificed a stable career at the age of twenty because of that.

Now, as someone who loves ARMA beyond reasonable levels, I can deal with clunkiness, but come on, ass creed is a decent game if you want to parkour about and then stab people in the throat.
Thief is for proper sneaking and ghost running

Sounds like scrub talk to me.

Thief is far from clunky.

And it's not a decent game, it's the bottom of the barrel for AAA shit. Literally re-skinned everything. Absolutely shallow,broken mechanics. The only redeeming feature is the music.

>Thief is far from clunky
It was designed to feel clunky, the human body feels clunky when it moves, that is a good thing for games like thief and ARMA, where awareness of your body is important.
>Shallow broken mechanics
Admittedly in the later games it gets a bit ridiculous and ubisoft has the problem where they mistake a "cheat" as gameplay, ala calling in the interns to murder a dude in I think it was brotherhood. But when it was at its purest, rooftop running and stabbing dudes, it excels. You appear to be looking for a stealth game, which ass creed isn't really trying to be

If you don't know what I'm getting at, fat girl syndrome is a mindset that fatties and ex fatties usually have. It makes them think that they can never find someone good so they settle for shitty guys because they think being emotionally/physically neglected is all they can ever expect out of someone due to their poor self-esteem.

For me, it usually goes:
>guy I find attractive expresses interest in me
>we both reach some sexual/emotional relationship that very obviously puts us past friend territory
>we both agree we're not ready for relationships for reasons
>we're both okay with being fwb
>just when I'm getting cozy guys suddenly find gfs
>would be okay with just being a friend except....
>they drop ALL contact with me

>"Baw anon why did you stop talking to me? I didn't do anything to you."
>ignore the messages
>secretly want to bitch them out for pretty much only using me when it suits them
>tfw they can't even be fucking subtle about it

I'm so fucking tired of being second pick; while I openly admit I have poor self-esteem, I also know a lot of normal people that do too. I may be fat, but shit, it's not like my personality is awful (heaven knows that's mostly what I had to rely on for years), I have college degrees, I have hobbies, I'm not mentally unwell, I have friends, and I'm employed.

So I'm not a model (crying forever, amirite?), but I'm not a below average person when I think about all aspects of my life. It's frustrating that some guys only ever see my worth when they need something from me or have no one else to fall back to.

Fucking do it. If they don't know they're doing it, maybe they'll wise up. If they DO know they're doing it, at least they'll know you're not an easy mark and fuck off. Stand up for yourself, girl.

I had a similar thing happen to me early in college with a guy I knew. Except that he didn't wait for the break up to tell me how much he was missing me. I gave him a fucking earful, told his girlfriend and a mutual friend about his seedy text messages, and never heard from his ass again.

>>7797356
I don't think that's 'fat girl syndrome' or whatever, you're choosing to let someone use you for sex cause you don't want to be in a relationship, and that's putting you in an extremely replaceable position. Obviously the guy(or anyone for that matter) will cut you out if they get a girlfriend, because that's what they wanted in the first place, you were just sex. Chances are he wanted a relationship with you and backed down due to your low self-esteem and more than likely you made the first move against dating exclusively.

You probably don't notice any of that and are just taking it out on others since you're mad, but you should try to see how you affect the situation.

I did it once. This asshole decided he was going to date this girl out of the blue but still wanted me to drive cross country to show up for his stupid birthday party (so I could watch them make out I guess?) and he kept going on about her details that I even said I had no interest in hearing about.
Didn't seem to deter him though. He messaged me back in June when he was freshly single with a "Are you still mad at me?" and he sent me another ":(" today, which I'm also ignoring.
>>7797428
>you're replaceable; you're just sex
And? I know plenty of men who have well established sexual relationships with women they don't intend to date, yet those men are decent enough to treat them with respect. They communicate if they're about to get in a relationship, and they certainly wouldn't expect them to be suddenly okay with new advances if they do break up.

And no, these types of men don't want relationships with me. I communicate to them about this, it's an observable fact and not some self-esteem voodoo in my head.

Are you me?
I had something similar happen to me over a guy I was seeing in Canada. I had met him on a dating site but it turned out he was only interested in fucking me, which also required me to drive across the border on my own dime because he didn't have a car. My self-worth at the time was low enough for me to do it.
At the time things were pretty good. This one night I recall we skinny dipped in his hot tub during winter and he treated me to a dinner on the house where he worked.
As time went on I grew tired of having to drive there when I could only ever stay one night. I was depressed at the time too so I already felt like I was being used but figured it was the only time I could get laid by someone I found attractive.

Surprise he eventually got a girlfriend and wouldn't shut up about her. He'd tell me how she's a virgin, and so pretty, and yadda. Then when I complained to him about how guys only seem to ever want to fuck me and nothing more he said I was bitter.
I pointed out that even he had hurt me in that way too.
After all why was it perfectly fine for me to use my money and time to drive to Canada for a night for him to fuck me, but a relationship was so out of the question? Why was it okay for me to have to listen to him gloat about his girl when if I had relationship shit to talk about then I was just being bitter and self defeating?
He copped out and bitched about distance being the issue. Such a lie.

But anyway yeah he eventually started messaging me again after him and his perfect girl split. She's already fucking other dudes lel

It's no coincidence that guys who are lusty for virgins also tend to like pedobait; girls that can be manipulated and groomed to know nothing except one kind of neckbeard smallcock.
It's all linked to jealousy and feelings of inadequacy.

Countless partners does not define experience. She could have been in a lasting relationship with plenty of sex and came out experienced. Would you date a girl who casually has one night stands 3-4x a month with strangers?

>> No.7797840

Not really
I don't date guys who fucked around because odds are I'll just be another fling to them and there's usually a reason why they can't keep a girlfriend. Plus they tend to come with lots of baggage and exes who may or may not have drama.

It goes both ways, stop being so butthurt because you fucked fifty guys and don't want to suffer the consequences.

I think you're confusing skill with experience. A woman who's had 30 sexual partners and is still shit when it comes to sex will have more experience than a woman who's never had sex regardless of her skill level.

A woman who has 3 or 4 one night stands a month probably isn't going to get into a relationship with me either, but as long as she's clean and loyal I don't really care. My ex cheated on me and I dumped her without a second thought.

This is so stupid, having fun with your sex life/sleeping around for some time in your life don't forbid you from being a good partener in a nice and stable relationship. You obviously know the difference between a one night stand and a real relationship and don't treat them as if they were the same. This is something you have to discuss with your partner and make it clear from the beginning, and once again it have nothing to do with the number of partner you had or how long you wait to have sex with someone.

My point is chances are your fake tits will end up on the internet in some way shape or form whether or not you don't take pictures of your chest now. They'd probably make you feel more confident. But it's that same confidence that has already led others quickly to humiliation. If you're honest about it though usually it goes smoother and people are generally more understanding. I'm not arguing this, it's just an over played scenario. If you want it by all means go get it, just don't be surprised by the backlash you were so worried about receiving for it.

I made the bed, I'm lying (no pun intended) in it, their opinion of me has dropped slightly but they still understood and accepted me. It's just really hard to tell that to a stranger or give my passport to a police officer because I'm terrified they'll pick on me for it.

In the meantime I've grown to be more confident in who I am and to love my country, distance makes the heart grow fonder and all, and actually being able to afford nice things for once definitely helps.

But yeah, I never lied with any ill intention, I was just maximally insecure.

I can relate to this.

My entire family is American but I lived in Saudia Arabia most of my life due to my dads job. After 9/11 we were forced to move back.

I was in middle school at the time and my one mistake was telling them where I had been. Kids are vicious when they see someone or something that doesn't fit in with the group so I got picked on a lot. Eventually I changed my story and told everyone I had been living in a less extreme country (Ireland) and they still picked on me. This went on for a while until I realized that people were going to mess with you just because they can.

Even now I'm in Uni and I have trouble keeping my stories straight out of habit, but it has made me rather adept at lying to people, so I guess that is a plus.

But you can get into an accident due to circumstances that may indirectly be your fault such as looking at a map, making a traffic mistake when you thought you were right, or doing something that seems harmless like sending a short text.

Surely, even if you knew you had responsibility in it, you'd appreciate people having compassion for you instead of rubbing in your face what a horrible piece of shit you are.

I know, intellectually, that a change of diet and more exercise should help but.... I spent the entire summer eating better and working a physically demanding job and I just continued gaining weight, and it's not muscle.

Kinda long but I just feel like venting and typing out my experience with my school's anime club. Tell me if this is a typical experience.

>Never been to an anime convention because I don't have friends who watch anime and would be willing to travel and attend one with me.
>Decide to join my college's anime club to make some more nerd friends and because they go to a convention twice a year.
>First meeting I see a lot of normal looking guys who seemed cool mixed in with what your typical anime nerds would look like, which is fine.
>President starts talking
>He's a tubby guy with the greasiest hair I've ever seen and I literally can't understand anything he says because it's all mumbled and slurred.
>Female President starts talking
>Incomprehensible screaming fills the room as this fat girl jumps on and off the chairs and starts acting "wacky" by running towards random people to have them say their name and major.
>One of the normal-looking guys leaves
>Manage to talk to a few more guys before the first anime movie starts and even talk to a cute Asian girl dressed in lolita, which I wasn't expecting to see there.
>The movie we watched is Garden of Words
>Beautiful movie but really awkward to watch with a big group
>By the time the lights come back on all the normal people have already left.
>Decide to give the remaining people a chance
>Every remaining girl was borderline obese and smelled really really bad.
>The guys who were left didn't smell much better and most of them started to talk about moeshit stuff.
>Physical appearances aside, I literally couldn't hold a conversation with any of them because they did nothing but yell and spout memes at each other.
>Later on, the female president starts spastically yelling about getting dinner in the school cafeteria and the thought of being seen with these people terrifies me so much I decide to leave.

Should I keep going just for the con? Would it be weird just to go to a con with people from /cgl/?

That feel when online admirers send you presents online, but they're in Amazon gift cards.

Do characters that don't necessarily have a body 'type.' The first thing that comes to mind are gijinkas because you can take a lot of creative avenues and, if done in such a way, you can choose what you want to emphasize about yourself. Whereas with an artist's character you might feel pressured to be 'accurate' and show midriff/boobs if that's the kind of clothing they wear, for example.

Hmmm, smart man.

That club sounds pretty typical from everything I've heard(pic related) this is why I'm glad I never joined an anime club in High school or college.

I knew a girl from 4chan who claimed to be a 'lolita' but shit talked her local comm and basically didn't have a single formal picture of herself in lolita despite her claims of being involved in it for years.
She was underage and posted nudes to /b/. I'm pretty positive if she wasn't showing tits, she was buttering up those guys into giving her shit.
Any relation?

I suggest you keep this to yourself, it sounds pretty damning.

Give them back their money.
You didn't do anything to deserve it and to add insult to injury you can't even think of what to spend it on out of millions of possibilities.

If it did, I'd get it. But it does not. And I can't justify the cost of tailoring the dress at its current price.
