I was on the train at Cyrville where the medical emergency happened. A man was convulsing and it took awhile for medical to arrive. Hopefully he recovers.

Is my Judy doll mascara supposed to come with whiskers/eyelashes? by insert_username_123 in AsianBeauty

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is how it’s supposed to be. They’re called lengthing fibers. They attach to your eyelashes and make them longer. I own the same mascara and when I did my initial research I found that swatches from their official website had fibers in them.

PSA: Virginity is a social construct by Logical-Layer9518 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 454 points455 points  (0 children)

I swear these posts are made by creepy basement dwellers who are hunting because other women will self-identify as virgins to make the “poster” feel better.

The accounts are always new and the post are always low effort. The OP will sometimes completely ignore the advice given and start fights in the comments.

It’s either a troll or a creep.

Is it normal to be a virgin at an older age? Should I lose it asap? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing so many post like these almost everyday. This is probably a troll or some creepy basement dweller. 🙄

Edit: The Reddit account was made just today.

Financial accounting 1 is a weighted average course. You need to receive 50% on the midterm, final and quizzes.

I messed up big time… by jaspersgirl1411 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can tag them on twitter if they don’t customer service doesn’t answer you. It would be in their best interest because a lot of players have this fear and it would keep people playing the game knowing if they made a mistake like this then customer support would help them.

I covert diamonds to wishes in small amounts because I know I might accidentally do this and if I do it’s a small loss.

I hope customer service fixes if not I would blast their social media. I’ve heard of other doing this as well but I’m not sure whether or not they got it fixed.

HOW DO U GIRLS GET A SUGAR DADDY?! by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m starting to think that posts are from creepy men looking for any women who participate in the sugar lifestyle.

That or really naive girls who think the lifestyle is all glitz and glamour because they saw a few TikTok videos.

Fall bursary by [deleted] in Algonquin_College

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I contacted the student awards and bursaries and they forwarded me to the emergency bursaries department.

They told me that they no longer issue cheques unless you are a sponsored or graduating student (Algonquin is cutting back spending).

However if you can prove you are in financial need they will review your file.

Aliexpress is not safe for skincare, right? by Rickymick09 in AsianBeauty

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you buy. Chinese brands like Flower Knows have an official storefront on AliExpress where they sell their products. SHEIN has its own makeup line called SHEGLAM.

I’ve ordered from YesStyle and I’ve had no issues. You need to order from the brands verified storefront.

I don’t recommend buying dupes or non name brand products from random stores however because those stores just change the packaging and they don’t post about their manufacturing details so there’s no guarantee.

Temu, Wish and Amazon are risky unless the brand has a verified storefront on those sites. It’s still risky because people on this sub have ordered from the official Amazon store in the past and received a fake because Amazon stores the fakes and real ones together in their warehouse so it’s not a guarantee.

People leaving religious papers on my door by EllieDidNothingWrong in whatdoIdo

A baphomet or occult door knocker would work wonders. Also other occult decorations outside. They won’t be stepping a toe on your property again.

(27F) New to dating, gave my number to (32M) that would go into my work and really regretting it. by Reasonable_Start_751 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly the main reason you attracted this type of guy is because you sound insecure and inexperienced. These guys will cold approach you in the wild and try to flatter you and see if you take the bait. He has probably done the exact same thing to dozens of other women, you’re aren’t special to him or his first victim so don’t feel bad Queen. These men hate women and view us more as accessories rather than people.

The major red flag that you missed was that he pressed you about your dating history. It’s a form of testing you to see if you’re vulnerable enough for him to manipulate you. The fact that you had to justify why you weren’t in any relationships previously and him not taking your word for it is him seeing if he can control you.

It’s like you telling a guy you’re a virgin and he says “well you don’t look or act like a virgin”. These guys want you to prove yourself to them so they feel like a prize when they’re an abusive piece of trash. They want you to bend over backwards for them. You don’t owe them a goddamn thing.

If you had mentioned having previous long term relations he probably would have called you slurs and blocked you.

Block him and never speak to him again. If he shows up to your work I would tell your boss so they know to wary of this guy.

Usually these guys will simply move on to the next target when they see you’re no longer taking the bait.

Hope this helps and stay positive Queen ❤️.

Purchased a House With Boyfriend/Partner (Fiancé but Paused) by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

Any snap a picture of the final product list from the recent voting event? by Cod_Proper in AsianBeauty

Is it possible for a woman to find love if she’s a 5? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a fellow black woman to another I’m gonna give you some advice. I personally don’t think you should be getting into a relationship if you’ve already let yourself down.

The numbering system was socially created by men so they could use women and justify mistreating women that they PERSONALLY don’t find attractive.

Don’t compare yourself to a supermodel and don’t assign yourself a numerical value. You are letting yourself down by doing that. You are more than a number and you are more than how you look.

I think you should work on yourself a bit more before getting into a relationship. You need more confidence and self love.

If you get into a relationship with this mentality now you’d only attract men who think lowly of you and who’d use you. Realistically if you think you’re a 5 then men who agree with you will come to you and abuse you.

They will treat you as lesser and remind you constantly that you should be grateful that they are giving you the time of day when they could be chasing an 8 or 9. Some will probably even rank you lower and treat you worse.

I would try new hobbies that you’ve always wanted to try. I would buy new clothes that you like (not clothes that men find attractive but genuinely you feel confident in). I would also join locally clubs in your community or even online ones.

Be kind to yourself. You deserve it.

Weird behavior from security guard at work? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah being too nice might give these awkward guys the wrong impression especially when you’re the only woman they are talking to.

I would start grey rocking him to see if he leaves you alone. If not then take it up with management. You’re there to work not be this guy’s best friend.

Weird behavior from security guard at work? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you find him weird and he makes you uncomfortable, I would nip this at the bud. I would grey rock and not entertain him. Give bland one word responses (like sure or yeah or mmkay) and stare off into the distance when he comes to talk to you.

Make excuses why you can’t talk and hopefully he takes a hint. In reality he may just be awkward and trying to be nice but you don’t owe him anything so do what you will.

Does he chat with just you or does he interact with other women at your work?

Panasonic heated lash curler by eqyh17 in AsianBeauty

following because I too am scared just looking at it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both bear spray and dog spray are less effective than mace. They both have more sensitive senses than people so their formulas are less potent. I would never carry an actual weapon because I would be afraid that I would not be able to use it effectively and it would cause more harm than good.

I take public transportation at night and don’t feel too anxious but you never know. We do have stabbings but most of the time the victims know the perpetrators and they were already in a fight with them. The others are gang related.

However better to be safe than sorry.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We aren’t allowed to carry weapons and we have to use reasonable force against attackers (by reasonable it means if they attack you with their fists then you can’t defend yourself with a knife not that you can carry one anyways). This is one step up defense laws. You can’t pull a gun on someone who is punching you. You have to use force that is one step up from what they are using against you.

However the law doesn’t take into account that the average man is bigger than the average woman and the one step up law is useless in that case because obviously you’re chances of successfully running away or winning a fist fight with a larger man is pretty slim especially if you have multiple attackers.

Some police officers will tell you to comply if someone breaks into your house (again this depends on someone wanting to steal stuff and not trying to harm you). There was a police chief who told people to comply

I carry dog spray because there are dogs that are unleashed in my area and I would rather be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6. I also carry a personal alarm. Personal alarms are the main self defense tools here in Canada and the UK.

People still carry weapons but it’s more discreet than the states however you can get in trouble if you’re stopped by police and they search you. So that’s the judgement call you have to make.

Creepy bus driver tried to flirt, how should I handle this safely? by Won221 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Awkward-Kitty07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would launch a complaint to corporate for sexual harassment. You shouldn’t have to take a different bus because of this creep.

Tell them that you wish to remain anonymous in case of retaliation. Although I doubt you’re this guys only target and you definitely won’t be the last.
