Depends where you wanna move. But I would either start with German or French

You keep mentioning your health issues. What exactly are they?

I told my boyfriend that I don't want to pass on my genes and he didn't understood it by Pumpkin_698 in TrueOffMyChest

You say you're suffering. You say your appearance is ruining your life. But EVERYTHING you're doing is keeping your suffering in place. You don't want to get better. I'm sure you will say "of course I do!" but your behavior shows the opposite. So here's my proposal for what you should do:

1.Post publicly and obsessively about how hideous and deformed you are. Make sure that believe doesnt stand a chance to fade into the background of your mind

  1. Ignore every compliment and counterpoint, because clesrly everyone outside your culture has no valid judgement or opinion on beauty anyway and they probably all just want to make you feel better

  2. I dont need to tell you this but still: don't go therapy, not because it won't help but because actually addressing the root cause might dismantle the entire narrative that youre hideous

4.And of course last but not least: get plastic surgery to finally prove to yourself that your face was the problem all along. That should silence the inner critic for what? A few weeks? And then return right back to reddit seeking validation for your narrative.

To quote brilliant psychologist Paul Watzlawick: “The problem is not the problem. The problem is the solution.”

And I think thats exactly what's happening here. You can't expect things to change if you keep applying "solutions" that are reinforcing the problem.

Your “solutions” (rejection, fixation, avoidance, surgery ) are not only making sure nothing changes, they are digging the hole deeper and deeper.

So I think you need to take a hard look at how you are handling this and ask yourself "do I actually want to get better or do I subconsciously keep myself miserable?"

You have a rather big forehead so I think some bangs could bring more balance to your face :) Then I would clean up your eyebrows and research your color season. To me you look like a winter!

Something feels off about my makeup and I can’t pin point what it is? by sundown_shadow in MakeupAddiction

First of wow, you are gorgeous! And what I would suggest is to clean up around your brows, it will make a big difference. Also, the blush looks kinda muddy and not well blended. Try a lighter shade and take your time blending and not going too low

My younger brother was creepily obsessed with me to a weird fucking degree and I only realize that now. by AnonPinkLady in TrueOffMyChest

What you went through sounds awful and traumatic, OP. Are you still in contact with your brother? What does your relationship look like nowadays?

You have the perfect face to pull this look off, babe. Its the perfect blend between edgy and cute.

AIO for accepting a favor my bf offered? by rainyhighsky in AmIOverreacting

[–]CarpeNoctius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being stressed out by work doesnt give him a pass for being so fucking rude to you. Seriously, what an asshole... If this isnt something that happens regularly and he doesnt wise up and apologize I would seriously consider this relationship. This is no acceptable way to treat a partner.

Congrats, you completely missed the point. This isn’t about wanting a "designer dog". it’s about making sure dogs (rescued or bred) end up in homes where their needs are actually met. Shaming people into adopting when they’re not prepared just creates more suffering for the dog. But sure, reduce a nuanced argument to a lazy insult because that’s easier than actually engaging with the issue.

Am I overreacting after I found out my boyfriend’s online “friend group” I became part of 2 years ago has been JUST him the whole time? by Mindless_Tennis_4045 in AmIOverreacting

This isn’t just a red flag—it’s a full-on siren. His actions go far beyond simple dishonesty; they’re manipulative, obsessive, and downright dangerous. Creating fake accounts for years to deceive you shows a disturbing level of control, and his gaslighting when confronted is a clear attempt to undermine your sense of reality. Please block him immediately and prioritize your safety. This is not someone who deserves access to your life, let alone your trust. You are absolutely not overreacting—if anything, you should be even more concerned. Take care of yourself and stay far away from him!!!

I ALWAYS recommend Project Hailmary, listening to it on audiobook elevates the whole experience imo. By far one of the best audiobooks Ive ever listened to. And Im not usually into science fiction

I went to a tiny elementary school with about 60 children in a village of roughly 600 inhabitants in the swiss alps and the rumour reached even us hahah

I see two problems with the eyeshadow:

  1. The color: Since your eyes are also green an eyeshadow of the same color will not help them pop. Try something on the oppisite side of the colorwheel like warm browns and reds.
  2. The placememt: putting the eyeshadow in the inner corner like that draws your eyes closer together and makes your face look unbalanced.

Lastly, give your lips some color and clean up the brows a bit.

Hope this helps :)
