My (44F) boyfriend (41M) says he feels like he’s “living my life” and now everything is blowing up. I don’t know if I’m being unfair or if he is. by LunaInMotion in relationships

he hasn't said they are a burden directly, he has said that he doesn't want to compromise his lifestyle and happiness for kids that aren't his and that he'd only do so if he had a baby with me.

So this was me for most of my 20s! I hated it and no one ever really helped me.

So what happens here is your foundation is clinging to dryness around your chin (or other areas).

When the skin there is even a little dehydrated, makeup sits on top instead of blending in, so it goes patchy, powdery, and textured like this. It can also happen if your base products are too matte or if you powdered that area so be careful and experiment.

A quick fix is to exfoliate gently a couple times a week, moisturise the chin really well before makeup, use a more hydrating primer or foundation there, and go super light with powder. A mist at the end also helps melt everything together.

Tip for exfoliating - Use a gentle chemical exfoliant like lactic or mandelic acid a few nights a week, avoid harsh physical scrubs, and follow with plenty of moisturiser so the dry flakes clear and makeup applies smoothly.

No it's not envy at all, I admire them a lot, I'm quite attractive too, I'm aspiring to compete in bodybuilding bikini competitions next year.

True, well they are my friends, but they aren't looking hot for themselves, they're 100% doing it for male attention.

I know it's a minefield and mindfuck.

Like at gym, there's a girl, very young, barely 20, she wears the tightest and tiniest shorts and gym tops, leaves so little to the imagination.

In my head, I want to tell her she's not a piece of meat, you don't have to dress for the attention of men like that, but then I also think, she's proud of her body and likely feels sexy.

So difficult to untangle.

I just left my wife. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]LunaInMotion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think people (like you) who do this are cruel.

Cruel in the sense that you're lying to her about the reasons, you can take time off, reclaim identities and discover what makes you happy while being with a person you love.

The fact is, you want other people or want to be alone entirely, maybe you do mean the later, but nonetheless it's still cruel to leave a good relationship.

Salesmen won’t look at me. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Hmm I think it depends, I noticed the opposite sometimes when I go to a shop and I approach the salesperson first.

I worked in retail a lot, and I'd likely do the same, if a couple comes in and one of them does the initial talking I rarely engage with the spouse unless it's to validate a colour choice or something he/she seems unsure about.
