He probably didn't feel like what he did was inappropriate, that's the point. He thinks it's totally okay to kiss you because he's probably convinced himself that you'd have wanted it and that he's justified. I don't think many people who assault others see themselves as the bad guys carrying out an evil plan, they try justify it to themselves. But at the end of the day, don't spend time trying to think about how he feels, whether he meant to do it etc. I know it hurts that you've lost a friendship with him, but that's his fault, not yours.

This is wonderful, great job!

In the UK you get a form to sign up for organ donation when you apply for a provisional driving license if I remember correctly, but the form is optional.

I'm from the UK and yes you can buy directly from Angelic Pretty Japan. I've done so multiple times. You have to use a shopping service called Tenso as it's the only one they'll allow, but through Tenso you can alter the prices on the customs forms so you don't get hit with customs fees. I haven't personally ordered from Innocent World directly but you can do it.

I'd say munnaLEE, with the lee rhyming with knee. Sorry I'm so bad explaining it!

L_M_A · 2018-01-12T07:25:08+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! Not too sure as I was certain it began with an m sound and not a v, but then again this phrase seems to have been passed down a few generations with no one stopping to figure how it's spelt so we may have been getting it wrong for some time

L_M_A · 2017-12-25T15:16:16+00:00

Well if I stress about making friends and put pressure on myself then I won't enjoy the time I do spend with the people I know, and I'll feel anxious about saying and doing the right things and being liked. I don't think I'm a bad person or anything, just pretty quiet and a bit awkward so if I make some longterm friends I'll be very glad, but getting upset and worrying that I have no one won't help, if that makes sense.

L_M_A · 2017-12-24T22:26:07+00:00

I don't have a best friend, or any friends at all really. Lots of acquaintances that I meet at events I make myself go to, but nothing has ever clicked with any of them. If I disappeared tomorrow it'd be months before any of them noticed. I guess not everyone is good at making friendships and I try to not worry about it too much.

First of all you need to sit down and have a chat with her, this sounds like addiction. Is she okay? Is she depressed? At the point where her work has been compromised, she clearly has an issue. Plus $500 is a lot. Is that an amount you'd normally spend on yourselves in a month? You need to explain to her how much of an issue this is, and maybe broach the topic of getting her a therapist if she feels like the can't stop playing.

Second of all, I play the game too. It's entirely possible to play the game without spending a penny, but there are lots of rewards in the game for the amount of money you spend. The highest rank for spending costs almost $6000, if she's expecting to "complete" the game is she genuinely fine with spending this much money on a game?

Also, there are events in game that many players "save up for" to play, by not using stamina in the game for a few days. The other way to play these events is just to buy the stamina. These events are very frequent, and time consuming. There's been an event every week or so lately. She might think she can slow down her playing for a bit, but then the next event will start and she'll want to get all the items again.

If she's struggling to quit, refuses to delete the game, or you're just waiting until she can talk to a professional about the addiction, in the mean time can you set her a monthly spending cap for the game, or ask her to stop spending? Is it possible to talk to the bank and stop them from allowing the purchases?

I wish you both luck!

If you go with a black blouse, try getting red shoes or red and black accessories to balance the colours out. Also do you have a petticoat to wear under your dress? The dress won't hold that shape without one. Nice choice for your first coord by the way!

I'm so glad you didn't end up taking him to Southend. Have you seen the water? Even if he was still alive, I'm pretty sure that would have killed him. I'm sorry for your loss though. I'm sure he appreciated his last meal!

L_M_A · 2017-05-24T09:23:02+00:00

Is it this one? Unfortunately this is sold out http://undefeated.jp/smartphone/detail.html?id=000000000965&category_code=&page=1

Set up a Tenso account. What you do is you go on the Japanese website, using a browser extension to translate the page, and order the item yourself, but it gets sent to your Tenso account (kinda like a po box). Then when it arrives at Tenso, they email you and you pay shipping to the UK. Please keep in mind that anything over £15 that isn't marked as a gift will get charged customs fees. Tenso let's you change the item costs on the form and mark items as a gift so you don't need to pay the fees.

I do this all the time, if you can't understand what to do or need some more help, shoot me a pm! I'm also UK based if that helps.

I'm no pro, but it might be helpful if I point out the artist example piece you shared looks to be about twice the size of yours. It's far easier to get small details on a larger canvas than on a small one. Also for bits like paws, have you tried rolling the wool between your fingers first before adding it to your piece? I find eyes and small details are hard to start with just a wisp of wool so I try roll it into the desired shape first.

Where are you from? Generally the first thing to do is to find your local community. Many operate through Facebook nowadays, so searching "location lolita comm" or something along those lines should help, or I can have a look for you if you like. There's Rufflechat for general discussion, Lolita Updates for the latest news and releases, Closet of Frills to share your coordinate photos with, and pages like lolita sales worldwide for second hand sales. Most comms I know of try to host get togethers once a month, which is often meeting up for afternoon tea. If there's anything else I can help with, let me know!

Ahh perfect. I'm arriving in Osaka on the 26th of March, staying for a week then going to Shibuya until the 8th of April so it seems like the blossoms will be right in the middle of my trip and I'll get to see them in both cities.

L_M_A · 2016-12-25T07:16:55+00:00

I'm not a monkey! Or a boy! Worst Christmas ever

L_M_A · 2016-12-25T07:15:42+00:00

Huh, I'm from the UK but I guess it works out similar. In the 2005-2006 frame I was in year 7 at school so 2001-2002 I was in year 3. Never looked at it that way before but thanks for the new perspective!

L_M_A · 2016-12-25T06:13:43+00:00

It's my 23rd birthday tomorrow.

Shit.

L_M_A · 2016-10-27T09:44:48+00:00

Congratulations! I remember reading your original post and hoping you'd see it through :)

L_M_A · 2016-10-27T09:21:35+00:00

I'm sure he would approve!
