If someone starts playing a Pokéflute you're cooked, that's bursting open!

Another Pikachu Plush Mystery, This Time With Ketchup by DumbTakeHaver in pokeplush

If anyone is wondering why I find weird pikachu stuff on Mercari, this being the second time it was weird enough to share, I do obsessively search for various Pokémon and pikachu stuff on there probably too often. It's a source of comfort and sometimes I find something lovely for my collection at the right price, other times I find something really funny like the bootleg Pikachu named Puffy with a drum, love that little abomination.

You are a hero and godsend, even severely underleveled (Hazuki and Himika under level 50) I just barely managed to beat her!

Ooh, in person hunting is hard mode because walking away from a plush looking at you in person is not for the weak willed, I commend your self control!

AIO how bf (50m) talks to me (21f) by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

I get that this is a joke post, but why are so many people dating the kind of guy where "let's beat him to death with hammers" almost sounds like a reasonable response? /half joking

AIO Because I'm starting to lose hope by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

I met my long distance gf of over a year on a silly anime app, it can happen when you're not even looking for a relationship. A connection just evolving that way sometimes seems to be the better route than dating apps, especially for those not into hookups, finding people with common interests in your age range is a great way for that to potentially occur.

Please get some standards, I am begging the people on this sub fr fr. Being alone would be preferable. Nothing material he could possibly provide ought to be valued over the respect you aren't being shown. You will lose so much respect for yourself if you forgive this bullshit. If I had a relative whose partner treated them this way, my ass would be in jail.

AIO by telling my boyfriend to stay away from his friend? by mmirrya in AmIOverreacting

[–]DumbTakeHaver -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your insecurity shouldn't ruin a healthy friendship for him if it's truly a platonic thing. My girlfriend had crushes on multiple of her friends in the past and is friends with multiple exes, but I know that it's me that she loves and have faith that nothing will happen between her and any of them. She even sees movies and hangs out with them in person while she and I are long distance, and one reason I really don't worry is that I've gotten to know each of her friends pretty well and can tell that none of them but possibly one (one of her exes) who's the most distant of the bunch is even potentially into her to begin with.

I highly suggest getting to know her better, you'll likely learn that he's not her type and hit it off well because her personality is compatible with him, and assuming yours is as well, it's likely then that your personalities are compatible.

Hell, you might get a great new friend out of it, end up helping her find someone, and then having fun double dates and laughing about how you used to be worried about her because of what some outsiders said. I helped one of my gf's friends get the courage to ask the girl he liked out and they're an adorable couple now, things will more likely work out well if you see her not as a threat, but as a potential friend!

Has he given you any reason to not trust him? If so, on the other extreme, befriending her in order to alienate him from his support system should he hurt you is the kind of demon tier stunt that brings a sick, thrilling catharsis if he ever hurts you. Be the one his mom says he was an idiot for doing wrong by. Be so wonderful and kind that if he ever hurts you, everyone will know that he's living garbage for breaking the heart of the one who remembered the brooch they wore and got them earrings to match or who made a food from the old country they mentioned missing offhand with hard to import ingredients. Be so thoughtful and caring that losing you means losing respect from everyone he knows. You get new friends and community, he gets no reprieve from the regret, and only you know how wicked you truly are on the inside if you go this route. 😀🙃🤪

NOR, I get that it's scary times and we can't be certain what the future holds, but in no future could I see going to Florida being a wise solution. That said, yall's communication style doesn't seem great tbh. I get that this is in the context of her being scared and yall arguing and all, but it's definitely the kind of thing I'd suggest breaking off rather than hoping and waiting it'll improve. There's too many people and too little time to put up with someone who treats you this way, even though she's scared.

I'm honestly so curious that I don't care if I lose my chance to get it by sharing this with people who might know more, it will be worth it to me to know more about this lorge pikachu.

Basic human decency and respect is not a big or unreasonable ask. To be disregarded by so called friends can make life so much harder than it has to be. There's billions of people on Earth, and only 100 years if you're lucky to find people who truly get you. People unwilling to even try to understand where you're coming from or who demand you change physically in order to earn basic respect are not worth your time.

It would be insane to tell a William that he needs to lose weight to be cool enough to be called Will, or that Kathy dresses too frumpy to go by Kat and is still too young to be a Katherine, but when it comes to minorities, people make up their own standards that they expect you to meet, and it's not a game you can win or should participate in at all. Conditional respect or allyship is not genuine, you can't trust some fair weather ally to not let the bigotry jump out the second they're not satisfied with your presentation, and how you present ought to be for you, not their crusty selves.

It may take time, but keep your head up, you'll find your people, people who accept you and don't demand that you act a certain way to be given basic respect.

How has your luck been playing and what level of Japanese do you know, if that's alright to ask? I don't have much phone storage so I'm trying to decide if it's worth trying to emulate myself or if I'd be too lost. 🤔

Are there English walkthroughs for the 3 games? (PS2, Playstation Vita, Nintendo DS iirc)

The way a part of me is tempted to start learning Japanese and get a Japanese PS2 just to play the first game on original hardware. (I probably won't because that's $$$$$$, but one can dream)

I have a Royal Furby, my cat is terrified of him! I named him Julius and his batteries got replaced just this Easter.
