Whenever my boyfriend says something sexual to me, I feel absolutely nothing. My reaction is so nonexistent that sometimes I just have no idea how to respond. It’s not him; I just don’t care about sex at all.

The demonic modern social apparatus lives in my head intrusively; nestling there like a brooding spider. There is no escape from its judgement, even when alone the show simply must go on and on. Its only prerogative is seemingly to make existence itself sandpaper unto my soul—so from all stages I retire. I embrace my fate as a wastrel; cursed to simply observe the poetry of other people’s lives from the other end of a vast sea, never to have someone lovingly immerse themselves in my own. I am utterly content with never experiencing love. I’ll happily melt into the drama of others from afar, outside their humanity and mine—watching down, or perhaps up, from some formless black space. My little phaneron. The fact that I can leave traces of my existence online and still nobody will ever know who I am offers me consolation. Maybe to die alone and unknown is a sort of privilege.
Pee pee. But also poo poo.

I turned 27 a little over a month ago. I have been in a majorly depressed state for almost 3 weeks now. It started when I traveled to Hawaii with my boyfriend and some friends for vacation. It was probably the worst vacation of my life for little reason besides my poor mental health. I have been depressed since age 10 and now that I'm 27 I am truly seeing the confirmation that nothing has or
ever will improve with my mental health or decision-making skills. My motivation to better myself or do anything at all is completely gone for the first time in my life.

>>54536i should've used "medium". but really shota/loli characters have always been present in anime/manga (as are etc. underage characters featured in panty shots and other sexual scenes).
it's just annoying to see modern anime fandom complain about this stuff and treat it like it's seriously an issue/claim fiction = reality and all that bullshit.
like picrel will get you labeled a pedo which is majorly wtf to me
Anonymous 54544
>>54536Lolis have not severely changed in their frequency of appearance over the decades. If you're referring to ecchi, that increased in the same time in general for loli as well as more mature female characters, but the ratios have been pretty consistent over the decades for Japanese viewers liking young girls.
You may be shocked to learn the Japan didn't even make producing actual CP illegal until 1999, contrast with the US passing laws in 1977. That is 22 extra years of being 100% legal to create child pornography. Compare further with it not being illegal to own CP in Japan until 2014.
>>54541The fandom got saturated with normies that started pulling normie morality into the medium as far as viewership goes. Now that anime is mainstream enough for normalfags to give a shit, the people who ride on top of normalfag morality for clout started virtue signaling to gain clout. It is now a viable tactic to be both "cool" and "virtuous" to like anime and deride strange things in the medium as a means of gaining social power, albeit in a limited dull sphere.

Btw, there have long been anime and manga which in no way contain loli/shota. Many of the classics such as Bebop, Death Note, FMA, etc. don't contain that shit.
There are also some really old-ass manga such as Banana Fish which explicitly comdemn pedophilia as a form of child abuse.

>Btw, legality doesn't determine what's socially acceptable or not, there are places where fucking a kid isn't necessarily written into law as illegal but people will still keep their kids away from dating adults and think pedos are scumYes I'm not a legalist either, but now that we're on the subject, what age do you think consent begins at if you're not a legalist?
>classics>Death Note, FMA, Cowboy BepopPutting to the side the fact that FMA has a loli, Cowboy Bepop has a trap, and that the main "love" interest for the MC in Death Note is a sexually dressed High Schooler. (Are you perhaps confusing the presence of a loli or shota being there with whether or not the content is lolicon or shotacon?)
Yoiko released the same year as Cowboy Bepop revolves around a female elementary school student who has the body of an adult and the ecchi misunderstandings she causes.
Released the same season as Death Note, Negima had a TV series as well as OVAs involving both lolis and shota in ecchi situations.
During the original airing of FMA (not bortherhood) Battle Programmer Shirase was airing which was an ecchi featuring the protagonist loli younger sister as well.
During FMA Brotherhood release, Kigurumikku v3 as an OVA was released, and Queen's Blade was airing at the same time. Enough said.
Just because they were not in "the classics", whatever that vague term means, doesn't mean they weren't present.
>Just because loli and shota have been around for a while doesn't mean those things are a "staple" of the medium or something we should all accept without criticism.I never implied they shouldn't be criticized, what I stated was that when the only people who gave a shit about anime in the West were moid basement dwellers, nobody had any reason to give a shit about loli or shota being present. Now that normalfags are into anime, it has become hip and cool to introduce progressive ideas into anime. I am not saying it possibly isn't right to do so(though you seem to be under the umbrella that violent video games cause violence too), but there's no reason to virtue signal if there's no one to virtue signal to but other weirdos.
Funny you claim exception from legalist morality yes bark about completely standard to legal morality opinions though.

Also, that's a pretty retarded way to define legalism. By that logic, anyone who thinks something that harms real-life children should be made illegal is a "legalist" since they want to outlaw immoral things.

Whether that is a good thing, a bad thing, whatever, I don't care, it's fact regardless.

For the majority of Japanese they don't like the lolishit either, it just tends that the anime that was liked by NEETs in Japan became popular with the basement dwellers in the West before the rest became slowly mainstream post Pokemon.

Today I went on a walk with my mother and some disgusting moid tripped me on purpose so that I would pay attention to him or something. My mom didn't even notice. I know it's a really minor thing and moids are capable of so much worse, but my undying hatred for moids is so colossal that this one little thing was what finally broke the camel's back. When we got back home I revealed my power level to my mother regarding my hatred of men. Instead of sympathizing with me, she told me to get help. Goddammit mom, you're supposed to be on my side.

BF forgot to renew his antidepressant prescription in time, we had the most incredible sex yesterday even though we're really busy this week and he was super sensitive even to little touches. I don't remember the last time he got hard just hugging me, and it kills me that this can't be how it always is. It could be worse I guess, some people don't even recover from the side effects let alone improve in a couple days, and when I tried Lexapro myself I wasn't able to finish ever. We do have a pretty normal amount of sex but he takes really long and occasionally can't finish at all, or stay hard especially if there's even the slightest distraction, and honestly it's getting difficult to believe I even feel that good to him or can hold his interest. I fear it's like a chore he does to be a good partner because I have told him an active sex life is important to me. Lately the frequency has been dropping too, we should pretty much still be in the honeymoon phase and we're only 29.
The same thing happened when he forgot his prescription another time. At least I know it's not me I guess. Still sucks to probably feel the worst to him out of the partners he has had, no matter what I do or how much effort we might put into keeping things interesting, just because he has to take literal dick numbing pills now. We're in it for the long haul and maybe he could try tapering off or switching to Wellbutrin at some point, now is just a bad time to start messing with things because he's really stressed with his career and the meds do work for him otherwise. Of course his mental health comes first. I just don't know what to do, a lot of the time I'm holding back tears because of how much I miss feeling desired. I wish this wasn't so important to me and I could just focus on other stuff too. I love him but feel like avoiding him and staying clothed because at least then I won't feel rejected at every turn just because of how obvious it is that sex with me isn't on his mind.

How do I get over the desire to be groomed/manipulated again after all major relationships in my life have been unhealthy?
I always need to be some kind of prey. I feel like the closest thing to ‘normalcy’ I have is wanting to be the one in charge, on a surface level. A guy who acts submissive to me and does everything I want/need, but he also knows how to control me in very subtle ways so I’m psychologically stuck and can’t leave him. No childish displays of power or fake machismo, just a massive web I can’t get out of, that also feels really comfortable, like I’m being taken care of but also can’t leave. That’s the dream relationship. It’d be just like how I’ve grown up, but it’s also so scary to think about.

I'm quitting all of the chans for awhile. At least 6 months, hopefully indefinitely. I have it blocked from my computer and locked with a password. I'm a bit nervous because literally the chans are pretty much all of my social interaction these days (because I can't stand Reddit), but it definitely does feel like searching for diamonds in a garbage heap. It's mostly all trash, all negative and it's stuff here that is posted to keep you miserable, to make you feel like shit. It's annoying how addictive social forums can be, especially if you're in my position. But I'm going to focus on gaining other interests, mostly getting back into playing music, reading, biking. Hell, maybe I'll even try to write a shitty book or make a shitty music album. Really, anything is probably better than this though. Even playing a video game or something.
The thing is that I've been mourning a loss of a friendship for the past 4 months. This person was my best friend for 10 years, though our relationship was extremely toxic at the end, I miss him every single day that I get out of bed and I worry that I will never be able to move on with my life. I saw one of his posts the other day on the chans. It was awful. He was talking about how happy he was, how he had so many friends and family. It made me feel utterly inadequate and hopeless.
Right now, I live in a derelict house by myself and while I am no stranger to being isolated, it just sucks.
I need to have the courage to move on, to accept that the door has closed, and to get on with my life. The thing is that I don't know if I'll be searching for what I need forever, but maybe it's better than just sitting at the door that has closed in front of me and hoping that maybe, just maybe, it will open one day.
I am in my late twenties now and I worry that time is running out. I guess today I'm planting a seed, and I can only hope that in a years' time, or maybe in ten years' time, I'll have moved on and I can find peace and contentment, free from isolation and the shittiness that has pervaded my life, especially in the past year since my car accident and my friend's suicide and a nightmare of a graduate school experience.
Wish me luck. Goodbye!

I feel like my bf strong-armed me into a relationship. I genuinely wanted to be with him at some point but my attraction has been fickle and now I might have to annule this again before becoming completely insincere and before I set us up for failure completely.
He was confused about us waiting to date for a bit and felt impatient. Objectively he is very respectful and cares about boundaries but he felt pretty urgent and intensely about that and it made me feel tense and obligated to escalate our relationship. So I asked him to be my bf to please him one day, also because what we were living wasn't far from a relationship, so I just slapped that label onto our connection. I should've stood my ground and waited though and what I did was insincere. It didn't make me happy to take this step together. And it did hold more meaning than I was ready to assign to our connection yet.
He has very intense needs and is very talkative and needs a lot of attention. We're polar opposites when it comes to energy and drive. He is very energetic and never stands still and I'm recovering from depression and struggle with low energy and drive and more.
All of this would be easier to process and navigate for me if he wasn't in such a bad spot rn. He has a very extreme, shocking life story and still has a heart of gold despite it and a strong backbone and a mind-blowingly well-adjusted, strong, principled, beautiful character. He helped me with my own growth and helped me become a better person effortlessly and I look up to him and admire him for his character. I'm so grateful to have him in my life because of that and I do love his personality and views.
What's troubling him is that he gets exploited at his current job, has excruciating back pain every day for months and on top of that his mental health has been deteriorating. He has developed extreme health anxiety and thinks he's gonna drop dead everyday and experiences difuse anxiety and is becoming more and more depressed. I help him wherever I can and he helps me too but it's a lot to bear and witness. We do have a strong support system in each other.
My sexual attraction to him however is shriveling up completely at the moment while he still flirts with me intensely and I find myself being attracted to other people. Either that's classic triangulation or fantasy or me exploring my options.
I'll probably fess up and talk about it with him soon but I'm already dreading it. I'm also kinda pessimistic about it all and wondering if it can work out at all and I feel bad for my physical disinterest. Idk. Maybe it's just a rough patch and working through our differences. Maybe we're just not a good match and I promised too much. Maybe sex isn't all that anymore and I need to change my priorities. Idk.

I just looked up the national ranking of the high school I went to and it's in the bottom 25%. I always knew it was bad but I'm actually shocked.
I guess it's not the school itself that is surprising but that my parents sent me there. I remember even begging them to send to a better school because I hated it so much and them pretending they couldn't afford it. My mother even said years after I graduated that she wished she had sent me somewhere better once she could she how badly all her children did. She never actually would have though.
I always knew my parents never cared that much about me but I suppose I find this shocking as I'd thought that academics was one of the areas they had shown me a bit of attention, but no.
It just feels like they made me be 3 paces behind everyone else in everything growing up: academically, socially, appearance, hygiene, abilities, living conditions… I'm thankfully out of the situation now but I still feel like I have so much catching up to do compared with everyone else just so that I can feel average.
I know they say smart people flourish anywhere, but from my school only a handful of people went to good universities and no one is doing anything enviable now. And the ones that did all came from the better backgrounds with the most supportive parents. I never stood a chance.

From ages 15 to 21 I was a total edgelord, with autistic interests : fall of yugoslavia, playing assfaggots, medievaboo, slavaboo, and also tumblr tier feminist. I had a weird clothing style and unflattering haircut and glasses, which made me look like a dork.
People found me smug and uncomfortable to be around, I had no friends at uni for a long time. Now, I have no trouble getting along with coworkers, and I have few good friends, which is enough to fulfill my social needs. I'm sure you don't want to be an extroverted social butterfly either.

That doesn't mean that you have to dress like a souless normie : just dress in a flattering way. You have plenty of ressources online. At some point I got fed up with looking bad, so I tried to make myself look decent, which succeeded, despite a shitty jawline that make me look like I'm fat or have bulimia cheeks.
Behaviour wise, it's not having weird interests that will make people dislike you. It's the way you engage about them. If all you can talk about is why Baby is superior to AP, or something, people outside of your interests won't be able to relate. And will find you annoying. It's pretty simple, you have to get interested in normal life stuff, like going out, relationship advice, traveling, whatever. Stuff that you can share with anyone the create some basic bonding over. Then, ou can slowly begin to talk about more niche subjects, and see if people are receptive.

>>54468>>54468Same. I am wholly opposed to sex. Not only have I read enough pessimist philosophy to be convinced of antinatalism, but I think people in general give sex undeserved precedence. Contraception led to hookup culture which means no enforced monogamy and sex becoming cheap and losing its association with love. To me it is just a burden. It is a hedonistic impulse consequent of the will to live. The fact I could disappoint my partner in bed, or vice versa, making the relationship unnecessarily awkward, is a con that no pros can outweigh

my fiance cheated on me with a fucking troon. the least passable troon you can fucking imagine. and bought coke from the guy and pressured me into doing it. apparently they didnt physically do anything before the guilt apparently made him ghost but they were trying to get girls in for a threesome. he was talking to a lot of girls. i found out over vacation and my heart has been at the bottom of my stomach ever since, i don't even know what to do because i depend on him in every conceivable way and now i feel like ive been trapped and lied to and he knows what i would have to sacrifice to leave him so he just has the nerve to do fucked up shit to me. ive built a life on top of this relationship and its crumbling because he cant stop fucking cheating on me. on top of this, my grandmother is dying and she's spending her last months addicted to painkillers and gambling away my mother's inheritance and lying to everybody about everything. easter she kept making me go into the bathroom with her and sit there while she drooled all over herself spacing out like she might as well have dementia and i wish it was something she couldn't help. we don't even have time to get her un-addicted because she'll be dead before she ever wakes up to the mess she's made. my mom has to go through the process of having a will made and a burial plot secured and her alcoholism is peaking worse than it ever has. turns out my grandparents aren't even married.

The 17/18 year old is going to have no money, no life experience, and be very desperate to please an older and seemingly sophisticated bf.
The 25 year old will know how to be manipulative and push boundaries. He will expect someone with little or no sexual experience to behave like someone with several years worth and the 17/18 will know this.

Ive been trying to make more friends that I talk to one-on-one since most of my friends are in group chats, but it's just so draining interacting with new people.
I always feel that i'm the leader in the conversation and that they're just there to nod along as I talk, or give one emoji answers when they get the chance.
I'm not even looking for deep intellectual conversations, I just want someone who will "yes, and?" things that I say sometimes.
I post on imageboards, i'm definitely not some sort of social butterfly, but I didn't think that normies would be so bad at talking.

I met the love of my life when I was 21. We were on opposite sides of the planet, but still came together and I knew he was someone I could spend my life with. We made all kinds of plans, but as time went on they seemed less and less realistic. Eventually we admitted to each other that being together would take years, luck and a lot of money neither of us had. I was willing to wait as long as it would take, but eventually neither of us could afford to even meet anymore. Eventually he told me he didn't want to see me alone and and waiting for him. We fought and broke up, thinking this was his way of saying he wanted to date other women without needing to confront me. I started dating immediately out of spite, and after about 2 weeks he ghosted me. 3 years later, while living with and dating a guy simply because I'd be homeless otherwise, I rediscovered a mutual friend and learned my ex had become successful and found a girlfriend…after being single all that time. I was living with a slovenly idiot in a relationship of necessity, meanwhile my ex had his own house and high paying job. I was so angry and depressed I avoided all information about him.
Another 3 years go by and my life is finally in a better place. I have a stable job, money, a place of my own ect. Feeling nostalgic, I asked our mutual friend what was happening in my ex's life and it turns out his girlfriend died almost a year ago. We talked about him, our breakup and she told me he'd admitted to her that even while dating, he had never stopped loving me. He had no intention of dating other women, he just wanted me to be happy. After that I contacted him for the first time in all these years, and our chemistry is still there. When we talk I can feel that same love and attraction we had.
Now I'm faced with a dilemma. We love each other, we can finally realise our plans of being together and we're both still young enough to realise our other plans of having a family together. The problem is his previous girlfriend. I don't know if I should just wait until he broaches the subject of getting back together, maybe just coming out and saying it, or choosing some kind of point in the future where a mourning period has passed.

> My partners sister hates me because she doesn't like women in general and labels herself as a trad NLOG while being nothing but a NEET who reeks a lot and throws tantrums
> I wanted to get close to his little brother, just to end up watching her dramatically going no contact with my partner and making a 17yo kid take care of her BPD
> I still try chitchating with him about some anime or JRPGs, but we can never truly spend any time together because she always lurks and controls it. We can't play anything together, only politely going "haha someday", because she is a sleepless woman that starts playing "mental illness" card, which she's been doing ever since the moment I met her. She is being a rude bitch - it's her depression, she doesn't want to pour water on a tiny plant that is three steps away from her - depression.
> During Christmas she also bought 5 gifts for each family member on purpose, that were thoughtful just to end up gifting me a notebook off AliExpress and a cheap deodorant pack for my partner. When I actually ended up gifting her a cute and soft bed set that was actually thoughtful, because I do not give a shit about throwing petty public dramas like she does.
But damn .. I am so FUCKING TIRED of all of this. I just wanted to be accepted. I wanted to have a good friend. I miss my family but I can't contact my mother or my siblings because I went full no contact with mother, thanks to her alcoholic and abusive ass that wanted to sell me to people.
I never mean any drama, I always treat people with respect, but the fact that I am dealing with this pettiness and never ending passive aggressiveness from a woman that is 6 years older than me is fucked up. If only you've seen her during the phase when she copypasted my internet existence and would buy knock off outfits of my own outfits from Chinese stores. I am so sick of it. I just want a female friend irl to talk to, but with COVID I got none. I could be talking for hours about this shit but nothing would change, I will still keep getting emotionally destroyed by her. She always tries to exclude me out of family conversations or events on purpose, knowing that I am all alone here.

I like the aspect of not having to be in class too but month after month I lost hours to watching videos and playing games that I'm not even really engaged in because at the back of my mind I'm thinking about the amount of work I have to do and when there's an attempt my mind screams at me to do something else when I log into class.
I missed yet another discussion this week and haven't worked on this big presentation. This is the one thing I need to do right since everyone thinks it's the only thing I got going for me and I'm still fucking it up because I cannot focus and feel empty everywhere.

I also drew a pfp for another dude whom I was friends with for a short period who caused me to leave a server because he kept harassing me without anyone doing anything but side with him and take his strawman bait, he too has my drawing as his pfp still, why do men do this and why am I still drawing free pfps for people for free for who don't deserve it.
I'm scared if I contacted either I'll look immature and stupid, but seeing them in my face annoys the shit out of me. it feels like they're doing it on purpose at this point…

>>55806>he’ll find someone elseContrary to popular belief, men can form attachments to the women they are with and decide not to upgrade to a “better” partner. The fact that he’s young and lacks experience and is acting emotional with her just makes it more likely that he will become attached. Is it possible that he will end things and move on? Yes. That’s true of any relationship though. In the meantime, she’s found a cute boy who likes her. That’s rare enough as it is. She should enjoy it.

I broke up with my bf in october, but because he didn't do anything wrong, and I just didn't feel anything anymore, we broke it off on good terms
He still texts me daily, and we're friends. it's obvious that he still likes me, which I don't care about since I already made it clear that I won't be with him again, but I'm now in a dilemma.
He's being too clingy. I don't hate him, but seeing legit 20 messages in a row after not responding for an hour makes me so mad.
I love when people gush at me about things they like. I wouldn't care if he got in the zone and gave me a long dissertation about something he found interesting that takes 20 messages to get across, but the messages will all be like "anon, hey!" Over and over.
Not only that, but he's recently began bringing upthe past when we dated, and mentioning how sad re-reading our old interactions makes him.
Whenever he'd say something that I dislike, I just wouldn't respond, sometimes for days until he mentioned something else, but it seems he never put 2 and 2 together and would just keep doing his the same thing a day or so after I began replying again.
I'm losing it, it's only a matter of time before I go off.
I need a nicer way to say "listen, I don't mind talking to you but we're friends and that's it. I hate when you bring up the past since we both know how I feel about you currently. I hate picking up my phone after being busy at work for an hour and seeing a ton of notifications that don't have anything interesting being said. I'm so close to just blocking you."
Help me word this so I don't hurt him too much. He doesn't have many friends and i'd hate to just explode and leave him with no one to talk without giving him any warning about my distaste of his recent behavior.
Sorry for the text wall

>>55850I've been in your bf's position and it's really not a nice place to be. I think wanting to stay friends with your ex when you're the one who lost interest/broke it off can also be kind of selfish in a way like "I want only the good parts of our relationship, if only they'd just stop having all these inconvenient feelings everything would be fine?" You should realize just establish distance, he is never going to get over it if you talk every day like that. Of course the person who still has feelings is going to want to say yes to keeping you in their life, since they love you, but it just generates constant pain and false hope, kind of like being emotionally held hostage. Maybe being friends would be possible in the future after you've had some distance but you aren't doing him any favors right now. He is being pathetic but your presence in his life isn't gonna help him get better.

I don't really have experience with this, since i'm usually the one who gets broken up with, and he's the only one i've had to deliver the bad news to.
Cutting contact seems like the objectively best way, but I need to figure out how to word it.
Thanks a lot for the advice, I probably would have just kept delaying the inevitable otherwise.
>>55856I realized that e-dating isn't for me, and that i'd like to be able to hold the person of my affections whenever I wanted.
There were no hard feelings from my end, and it felt like absolute shit to break up with him. he didn't do anything wrong himself. It was just rough for me being head over heels for someone but being unable to actually interact with them. You can only do so much stuff online you know?
It would be legit years before I could see him in person, and I couldnt see myself waiting that long.

Currently pondering would I get caught if I skipped my 2 hour shift because client (I'm a personal assistant and I mostly help handicapped people to do recreational stuff) is throwing yet another tard rage fit and telling me to fuck off and every time we do this dance where at first she yells at me to leave and after a while just goes "I'm nice now" the less and less I look forward to meeting her.
I would quit working with her but my wage is shit and this is the only housing unit where I have two other clients on the same day. It's hard to get a lot of hours in because clients are so spread out thus I need every hour I can muster.
Currently lounging in the restroom and pondering should I just browse on my phone here for the rest of my shift or just leave and not give an explanation to her counselors.

i think I got cheated on … again, but I don't know what happened specifically
He went behind my back and hid a girl from me that tried to be FwB that he turned down for me, and went through methods so I wouldn't find out he's talking to her again… but I found out anyway
He admitted to it, but won't give me the details and the ambiguity and lack of closure makes me feel incomplete.
He tried to manipulate it by turning it on me and said "yes I was hiding her, but I would have told you EVENTUALLY" like that's going to help…
I wish I just knew what happened… It's driving me crazy. The only way I found out I was being cheated on in my last relationship was by swallowing my pride and messaging the girl, luckily she was understanding. I've thought about doing it with this girl but I'm embarrassed

>duh retard. why does anyone go to college. you can only have fun here if you're rich. Because you actually care about what you're studying?
If you just wanted to make money, learning a trade like being an electrician will net you the same amount of money with substantially less student loan debts because instead of being some white collar loser among dozens of white collar losers in a hive you can go anywhere you fucking want. If you just want money there are so many better ways to go about that.

Study what you actually want to study, if you wanted money college is a helltrap that suckers retards like you that don't actually like doing anything into "getting a better life". What do you do in your spare time that is productive? It doesn't sound like you shit out code, so I have hard problems understanding why you are going to subject yourself to 8 hours of torture a day being someone else's code monkey, and an incompetent one at that. If you get even half fucking decent grade the first semester you could have flounted that shit over every scholarship absolutely begging people like you to apply to throw money at your sorry stupid ass. Did you even try or did you just assume? Being poor counts for a hell of a lot more for scholarships than good grades I will tell you that.
>get fucked nigger you don't know my lifeSo far everything you have written falls completely in line with what the average midwit gets fed by society today and falling for it hook line and sinker and it's pretty much exactly what I expected you to say.
>>56078>adding on to this, it's absolutely senseless than university is so expensive in the states. you shouldn't have to pay 20k a year. It only got this way because retards like
you fell for the "get educated to get money" concept. Cue an ever increasing arms-race where idiots who were never meant to go to college to learn or research and instead view it as "job preparedness" flood the system ever year trying to escape their retardation.
>the only downside i can think of that comes from uni being free is that more people would probably enroll just to enroll; but a lot of them would be filtered out by upper level courses anyway. In most countries where college is "free", colleges filter out purely by how stupid you are instead of partially how stupid you are, unlike in the US where community colleges will take basically anyone with a GED and without a felony. Considering you have described yourself as doing badly in High School your sorry ass would never have made it into college in the first place.

>>56098I don't get physically ill unless I think about explicit images. The act itself looks disgusting so I don't blame you for getting physically ill. For me, it's more of a moralistic approach to the topic. Not religious, but trying to move beyond fleshly pleasures and distract myself with more productive things instead of fantasizing about sex or thinking about sexual thoughts and feelings. I could do without thinking about my crushes. Men are a distraction. I want to spend my time thinking about other things.

>>56104You seem cool, being a nun is cool too. Battle against impurity is a good thing, although impure thoughts cannot be eliminated completely. It's about not acting on them and saying to yourself "no, this is not nice, I don't want to think about it" and shifting your focus. It's a gradual process, I know that closing oneself off completely sounds great, it cannot be done. You have to shift such thoughts somewhere good every time they come, to the point where it becomes second nature and not a problem anymore. I believe in you! (also finding people attractive is not an impure thought, when it moves onto other
worse things, then it's time to shift. think of attractive people as a part of natural beauty, same way the trees and mountains are)

I pretended to be into some kink I wasn’t to try and get closer to a guy, but I basically memed myself while feeding into his fantasies, and now it’s actually starting to turn me on. I won’t elaborate on what exactly it is, but it’s pretty disgusting.
I don’t seek out porn of it or anything, and it doesn’t excite me outside of the specific scenarios he’s into, but I still feel conflicted.

My friend got a short haircut and then came out as "trans/non-binary" using "they/them" pronouns. I have no idea where the trans part comes from considering she doesn't want to be a man, and I don't really understand the point of non-binary. From the outside it just looks like she wants to LARP as an anime boy when she feels like it.
I don't understand why you would want to force people into using awkward unnatural-sounding English around you. She's still a good friend I want to continue being friends with so I'll respect whatever she wants me to call her but I just don't get it.

And the weirdest thing is i can't pinpoint what it is about him that makes me feel this way. I can't change his personality anyways, but maybe it's because wish he was more charming, fun, unique and interesting. I know that I'll be heartbroken if we break up, so that's off the table. But now that I'm dating him, we can't i fall in love?! It's such a waste of my youth, dating boys but having no romantic feelings. I wish i yearned for him, had him constantly on my mind, day dreamed, always wanted to call and talk, etc etc… Our relationship is still objectively good, probably better than most normie ones but i often feel slightly off in a negative way when we talk.

You're still slowly growing and changing even if you started puberty at 8 or 14. You can definitely see his features got sharper even in those old, low-light, static pictures.

You're not a pedo for being attracted to someone you thought beforehand was an adult and/or around your age. You
are a pedo if you know their age and go after a 17 year old while you're 25.

I have been having homicidal thoughts every day since I was 14 and I don't think I can talk to anybody about it. I know I'm not just a psychopath because I wasn't like this as a kid. It didn't start until my household became extremely violent. I don't know if it's normal or not.

Which part of me is wrong and not good enough
I wish I could have been born a normie and could just stop hating myself

>>56352Love is expressed in many forms, anon.
What you feel and what you're describing are just two different forms.
When I fall for people, it's never that head-over-heels mushy stuff. For the lack of a better word, love feels like a sort of possessiveness. Like I don't constantly think of the person i'm with, but just them being around me, and not free for someone else to take makes me happy enough.
You'd clearly be crushed if you two weren't together, and to my knowledge the relationship had a good, non-abusive start. i'd call that love if i've ever seen it.
But you know yourself the best, and if you genuinely feel like it's not working then don't hesitate. From the outside however,
Tl;dr: You're just as valid even if you feel that you're not as openly affectionate as other people.

Navigating this really complicated friendship and more under so much strain for the both of us has been incredibly difficult but today, my friend and I had a break-through of sorts. I feel like we're finding a new normal and we have both worked and tried so hard to see it through despite all our hang-ups and hardships. It's been an emotional rollercoaster but we've been showing up consistently for each other and taking it one day at a time and focusing on the positives and prioritizing each other's well-being. I strongly challenged some of his mental troubles the other day which was an intense and uncomfortable ordeal but he has rewarded it today and said that he appreciates it. I love my friend from the bottom of my heart.

>>56364Such thoughts are not normal, but not putting them into reality in any way is the more important part. Still, it's something to talk with a therapist
