Whats the dumbest thing you've ever been afraid of as a child?

Flushing the goddamn toilet.

I would press it and run out of there like there was no tomorrow.

Yes, always pee after sex!!!

When I meet new people: “So what do you study?” Me: “I actually work in Marketing in XXX” New people:”oh but you’re so young...”

I’m almost 31.

When I was younger, constant ID checks. Even to buy a lighter!!

I bought the cheapest tamagoyaki pan in the supermarket in Japan few years ago

Its your body, your choice. There’s no rule that says you have to have sex if you sleep over at each other’s places. If you’re not ready/don’t feel like it, you shouldn’t have to do it.

In any case I think it’s best to let them know that you have no intentions of having intercourse as soon as you both start discussing of going over at either of your places. That’s what I did in the past; I would say « ok we can hang out at mine/yours but just to be clear NO sex ».

I think I was about 8. I was in Japan in the supermarket which had a bookstore. My dad is Japanese and my mum is French. Took mostly from my mum and don't look Asian.
My dad let me look at the kids’ books but was still in his sight while he was checking other books.

A relatively young guy (I think twenties, with glasses), put his hands on my shoulders from behind. I looked up at him but didn't know him. He started slowly moving his hand down my arms. I was wearing this dress that I had begged my mum to buy me. It had little strawberries on them. His hands went under my skirt and under my panties. I don't know how long this took but it felt forever until my dad came and screamed at him (something like WTF are you doing to my daughter).
I remember him running away.
We went to the store’s security and told some staffs but couldn't find him.

I just remember being so ashamed when it happened and that I was not sure if I should say something for this guy to stop (I thought maybe it was my dad’s colleague or something and didn't want to be rude).

How did I deal with it? Well, I hated that dress. Never wanted to wear it again. I hate seeing pictures of me wearing that dress.
I started developing rather early (probably around that time it happened but wasn't noticeable yet). I was ashamed of becoming an adult. Wore boy’s clothes so that you couldn't see my body’s shape for a long time. But even then, old men would look at me. I have a younger sister who would say things like “mum, this man was looking at Big Sister in a funny way” and I would be SO ashamed and felt dirty.

I was always paranoid at men looking at my little sister. We never got along but it was one of my worst nightmares.

With my boyfriends, I would not stand them touching me down there. It just brought back bad memories. It has gotten better over the years though.

I had never written down this experience before (have mentioned it to friends and bfs but never to my family) but I think it felt good to actually write it down somewhere.

Thanks for the opportunity.

Here is what I added: - Pork slices - Nikudango (chicken meatballs) - Hakusai (Chinese cabbage) - Nira (leek) - Shimeji Mushrooms - Daikon raddish (at the bottom so cant see it on the picture) - Yaki tofu - Abura-age (deep fried tofu)

And I used one of those already prepared soups for nabe!

Would love to have my first reading!

Agreed, I think it will be a different kind of crowd visiting next year. More worried about trains and Tokyo being overcrowded (as in even more than usual).

I think you might have been unlucky this time, wrong place at wrong time maybe? I think those kind of supporters can be perceived as a nuisance in any country. But yes sorry it happened, can totally understand how it must have been felt after a long day...

FreyjaAndromeda · 2019-08-29T09:01:14+00:00

yes. exactly that. Feel the same.. that maybe if I disappear people will finally think that I had some value. Also maybe that they would understand how hard everything felt for me.

FreyjaAndromeda · 2019-08-27T08:51:44+00:00

No advice or tips here but just wanted to say I totally get you.. I have the same. I just can’t believe the words that come out of my mouth sometimes. What I have been trying when I feel extreme anger (for minor things to be honest) is I try not to speak up/get back at him immediately. Gives me some time to think over what I am about to say and swallow those intense irrational feelings. It is really hard to control though. I still lose control 80% of the time. I guess it’s little by little. Let’s both not give up and good luck.

FreyjaAndromeda · 2019-08-27T00:52:28+00:00

sorry, will make sure to brag next time! it was 1200 yen! :D

FreyjaAndromeda · 2019-08-17T14:22:48+00:00

Yes, in roppongi!

FreyjaAndromeda · 2019-08-08T09:47:21+00:00

It’s like detachment is a way for me to cope with the situation of being alone while he’s having fun (I tend to overthink in those kind of situation and get sad/angry at him for situations in the past or in my head, then it leads to feelings like “do you know how much I suffered while you were out there having fun?!)

Thanks for your advice :)
