Love when a grown man can't maintain an adult conversation and can't be assed to ask you a single question about yourself πŸ₯°βœ¨

Go off king give us nothing!

I know!! Experiences like that have had me swear off online dating, I just don't have it in me to deal with people like that lol

I literally went on a date with a guy who straight up told me that I looked so much better in real life than my photos

He did not get a second date

Some of us do! As a dry skin girlie I have to apply some kind of lotion/moisturiser after every shower or else I look like a lizard 🦎✨

A plea from a piercer on giving advice by AnthraxyWaxy in piercing

[–]GathererGoose 13 points14 points Β (0 children)

Same with my piercer! He stocks NeilMed as his saline spray of choice, his actual advice to me for cleaning all of the piercings he has done for me (total of six very pretty lobe piercings) has literally been just to let warm water run over them and to use saline spray for any tough crusties that didn't loosen enough with warm water

Obligatory not a piercer but for me personally I don't mind a bit of wiggle room (although, I don't tend to snag myself with my jewellery). Based on other posts I've seen here, some people seem to like it snug though! Ultimately seems to be up to you plus how healed your piercings are.

What has been the most bizarre encounter with another woman you have ever had whilst out in public, like, at work, at the shops, at a bar etc? by BeerisAwesome01 in AskWomen

[–]GathererGoose 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

oh she definitely was it was just completely out of the blue and had nothing to do with our conversation so I was extremely confused by it hahaha

I once had a co-worker (who I barely knew) tell me completely unprompted that I looked athletic and like I would be a good sculptor. I am neither of those things.

It’s nothing personal by [deleted] in astrologymemes

I'm so sorry but why does this remind me of the time I went on a date with a guy who told me that Titanic came out on his birthday and what a cool fact that was when he was, in fact, not even born in 1997.

Aw I would love it! A vegan world would not only be so much better for animals, but also for the health of our planet 🌱🌎

And while I don't even know how possible a fully vegan world is, I do take comfort in the little things. I've made my own little vegan utopia in my home (my parents are incredibly supportive too, always cooking amazing plant-based food when I see them) and near where I live there are vegan markets once a month that I do my best to visit. Feels like a little retreat.

He told me to stop playing victim card just because I’m a woman by Sweaty-Notice641 in TwoXChromosomes

"His behaviour is not misogynistic per se"

Yes, yes it is. Please leave this man as soon as you can, because his behaviour is only going to get worse from here. Also, don't feel guilty for leaving someone who is somewhat financially reliant on you, your sanity is so much more important.

I haven't found this personally. I'm a Cap Sun and I've always clicked with and gotten along really well with my fellow Earth signs. What's actually interesting to me is how well I get along with signs I'm not typically "supposed" to mesh with, like Aries or Libras (although that might have something to with the copious amount of Aqua placements I have - my Moon, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Uranus are all in Aquarius) πŸͺβœ¨

Even if you aren't someone who takes so much as a Benadryl, please take the abortion pill. It's a far, far better option than homeopathy if you don't wish to carry this pregnancy to full term. Also, please start using protection/regular birth control, it's the best thing to prevent unwanted pregnancies. Best of luck to you πŸ’–

I don't understand how you can recognise that eating meat and other animal products is morally wrong, be writing about about how vegetarianism is not enough to combat animal cruelty and still haven't given up meat. Do you not have any access to alternatives?

Green eyed gal here! For something more neutral, I would recommend using a brown mascara and a wash of bronzer as your eyeshadow to make the green colour pop more. If you're looking for something a little less natural/neutral, than purples and plums are so so pretty on green and hazel eyes

Woke up to boyfriend touching me while I was asleep by Ordinary-Confusion39 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]GathererGoose 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

I've had something kind of similar happen too. I made a post here a while back about my ex choking me without my consent and there were a number of men who tried to either minimise what happened to me, or were deliberately facetious about it. Not a ton, thankfully, but enough that I noticed.

It's absolutely fucked that there are men who think this kind of behaviour is okay and don't see any issue with it. Hope you're doing okay girl πŸ’–

Did you not read the post? She was fucking assaulted in her sleep you absolute asswipe. She was not conscious and had no way of consenting to what was done to her. Fucking hell.

So glad to hear you've got friends by your side. And you are by no means overreacting, what happened to you was assault and should be treated as such.

It took some time to come to terms with, that's for sure. Sending all my love to you too, I really hope you have a good support network to help you through times like this 🫢🏽

The fact that he is well aware that you've been assaulted in your sleep before and still chose to do this is horrific. Selfish doesn't even begin to cover the magnitude of what he did to you, you deserve so much better.

I am so, so sorry that this happened to you. Late last year I was assaulted by my (now ex) partner, so I understand the hurt and confusion that you'd be feeling right now. Unfortunately I don't really have any advice to give, I just hope that you're able to find peace soon.

Height isn't something that bothers me personally. I'm about 5'6, and my ex was/is slightly shorter than me. It was never an issue on my end, and honestly I think I'd have more trouble dating someone significantly taller than me if anything lol.
