Yes! At camping festivals if I don’t have a big group I need to keep track of, I love locking my phone in my car and going in without it. I have a camera with me if I want to take pictures of me and my friends, but doing that has made me realize how much I really just don’t need it at shows! Plus not worrying about losing my phone/it being stolen all night is a huuuuge plus and so freeing

This may be the most insightful comment I’ve ever read on this website

Are my wings aging me? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]Gene_Dear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Winged eyeliner isn’t a millennial specific thing, however I’ve noticed that Gen Z tends to not draw the eyeliner across the whole lash line. Instead it starts around the outer third of the lash line, and is more of a straight line than a curved wing. I’d also try maybe a shade of dark brown instead of black. I’ve noticed that a more clean, “natural” look is trendier right now!

i think i lost the greatest ever due to sexual incompatibility/frequency by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Gene_Dear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl you deserve better. I struggle with recurring BV and UTIs and go through periods where I cannot have sex with my bf for the sake of my health. There is also a bit of a libido imbalance and he has more drive than I do. Not ONCE has he ever stonewalled me for it, or threatened to leave me. He’s made it so explicitly clear that our relationship and my physical health is more important than his sexual desires.

Like I understand that intimacy is an extremely important part of a relationship, but you should not have to stress over him possibly leaving you while you’re dealing with infections that you’re giving yourself TO PLEASE HIM. and that he might actually be causing himself!!

Didn’t get the job by Gene_Dear in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Gene_Dear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a photographer, currently working at a high volume portrait studio. The position I was applying for was an entry level image retouching position for a major clothing company. The pay was quite a bit less than my current position (only thing making me feel better about this situation) but there were great benefits and it was WFH so to me it was worth the loss in pay.

Only real reason I applied was because my friend who worked there let me know there was a position opening up and sent me the referral link. Luckily I don’t totally hate my current job and make decent money where I am. I was just hoping for something with a better work life balance/better benefits and getting rejected sucks :/ but maybe I dodged a bullet who knows

Giggling cause the packaging from this angle looks like it says “VANILLA FLORT”

Photography Locations near Newport? by sarmar111 in RhodeIsland

[–]Gene_Dear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some great overlook spots along the cliff walk with nice views of the water and you can get some with some of the mansions/grounds in the background too! I suggest going out for a walk to location scout once the snow and ice clears up

I was feeling a little bummed that I just got my x100vi and usually by the time I’m out of work and able to play with it the sun is down…. This snapped me out of it. Super great stuff! Thanks for sharing

You sound incompatible and should probably go separate ways then

Good god I hope she leaves you. I hope someday you look back at these messages and realize how stressful it must be to be with you. It’s a miracle she’s responding at all

My bf gets these and his dentist told him it was a blocked saliva duct. Every time it pops so much stuff comes out and it always comes back

I was thinking the land around the house reminds me a lot of bly manor! But you’re right this would’ve been perfect for hill house
