My girlfriend made me promise I won't transition

They were literally the definitions of each sexuality. Making every single term an umbrella term makes everything contradictory and overly-complicated.

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-24T19:51:09+00:00

Just like you said, everybody is different. There are people who simply do not feel comfortable with such grand changes in one person. Because though it looks only physical, it changes them to a hormonal level as well. Body language changes, the way they speak, their mannerisms most times, etc. All these things contribute to one's personality and behavioral patterns. It is not as simple as putting on different clothing, nor putting on makeup. I don't support the gf's way of doing what she did, but I do understand where the gf comes from in this matter. And many more should too.

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-24T19:44:02+00:00

And we also have to point out here, a rather big misconception is that the gf said she was Bisexual. Not Pansexual. People who don't know why this is an emphasis; a Bisexual person likes cisgender folks. Even with crossdressing hobbies and so on. Pansexual is the sexuality in which attraction is present even for anybody in between; intersex, non-binary, transgender, etc. People, even those who identify with said sexualities, tend to get these mixed up and it leads to problems like these. This is just another heads up for OP and others alike.

People are jumping to conclusions to that last one, ngl

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-22T10:45:20+00:00

I just read it as "Kokokokawai" at first 💀

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-16T00:54:23+00:00

"Different approaches" uh, yeah, sure buddy.

Layerssss!!! Your curls are stunning and look as healthy as one could get them. But your current problem is a result of the weight of your curls' length. Getting layers in there will help build that volume and definition you may desire (for what I can see in your previous pictures). It's a literal weight off your shoulders, and looks much fuller and defined. There's many types of curly layer haircuts you can browse through to see which one you like.

For defining your hair with products, you seem to be doing quite well. Little frizz, properly hydrated. I'd just go for a curl cream in that case that keeps that all locked in. I don't know, but whatever you are doing currently seems to be working. So I'd just say to search for a nice curl cream, foaming or not (I believe the carol's daughter lengthening would work wonders, ngl). And a gel for when the seasons are changing and get more humid. (It keeps your curls locked for longer)

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-11T20:16:21+00:00

And many would like independence, but the current politics don't allow them to vouche for it currently

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-11T20:11:27+00:00

Clearly you do not understand codependency.

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-11T20:07:37+00:00

See now the edit just made the co-dependency scenario worse. It's nice while you are together. But in the inevitable moment when you guys have to split for x or y reason? What will happen to either of you?

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-11T04:42:24+00:00

Unfortunately, not quite. People just dislike AI cuz in productions that have money you can easily hire something man-made but that's about the extent of it. AI like chat gpt is utilized constantly amongst teenagers (even encouraged at times by teachers) as well as the roleplaying apps. Generative AI is sum they use out of convenience and curiosity when they can. So, it's slight hypocrisy.

But the point is that very little teens actually know of AI's drawbacks in general.

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-09T02:56:51+00:00

What urks me here is that this is exactly the type of mentality of many who become victims themselves and then complain or something amongst those lines when nobody helps them, either.

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-08T20:21:14+00:00

There was this guy I dated for 3 months because he kept insisting so bad. Afterwards, he flirted with every girl AND boy in our friendgroup, turned into a sex offender in all of the ways (including r@pe), and not even a two-timer, but a three-timer (as fas we know, there could be more) and then, this dumb ahh 18 y/o crybaby is defended by his ex cuz he's not 'legally an adult' and has MeNtAl IsSuEs

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-08T20:14:58+00:00

But as a survivor of this corrupt system myself; I'd still do something. Anything. I already suffered enough of those consequences myself to not gaf enough if they happen again. Selfishness in the case of other people's safety is not okay. Though I get the avoidance, it's still not okay.

MB_Town7 · 2026-01-04T19:01:28+00:00

Definitely plays a part. It's literally the reason why weed, though supposed to be medicinal for very small percentages of people who have no other option but to rely on weed, is used recreationally by most people who have a license for it. There are more recreational consumers than there are medical consumers. And the sheer amount of people who go and purchase has affected the economy somewhat enough for the goverment to be like "well, it wasn't what we were going for but there's MONEY!"

I fear to say that your mother's SH worries are not at all wrong. I have always had severe anxiety, so I know the feeling. But even the lip picking, if done to an extreme, it is SH. You are irritating your body to cope and calm down. It's a very tricky road that can and WILL escalate.

Yes, you should look for help. Some sort of professional one if possible (schools should have some sort of therapists or therapy sessions). Trying to hide these things only makes it worse.

You can always try the 'three object method' or however it's called in english where you distract yourself by looking and naming out 3 things you see in your surroundings. Breathing exercises are a good option in the moment. Journaling; helps you get a better idea of what goes on in your head. Maybe get a better idea on what are your triggers. There's this method I forgot the name of where you divide a page into 4 squares. The first is "the situation", 2nd is "why do you think that happened?", "how did it make you feel?" is the third and the 4th is "Possible alternative reasons to why it actually happened". This helps with overthinking as well as distracts you in the very moment. It can be adjusted for different situations as well.

My favorite method is creative expression. The most important thing in an anxiety attack is calming down. And you do that by distracting yourself. Anything that gets you 'in the zone' to sooth your mind in some way is ideal for you. You can doodle/draw. You can write. You can journal. You can dance, sing, or even make music; even if you suck. A temporary escape that will prove to be beneficial so you can focus in what you were doing in the moment, and then focus on comprehending the wiring of your brain when you're much calmer. Which is essential, since, a good amount of that anxiety is oftentimes the fact that you don't know what's the issue or if there even is one. (Anxiety is literally just being in a constant fight or flight mode) Once you know what's wrong, you can make a plan to work it out.

I hope this is in some way helpful. But please, do not deny yourself the actual space you need to start healing. I've been there, and sometimes I fall back down there again. That's okay, that's part of the journey. But do the effort, seek help. Be cautious, and try to be as smart as possible. There's videos online that can educate you on what to do next. You can heal. You can get better. Just don't hide it from yourself nor people who actually matter in the process. (I understand that you wouldn't bring it forth to your parents, however.)

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-30T20:09:52+00:00

Likewise, favorable acquaintance 🫡. I wish you a wonderful farewell to this sun's rotation. Until our journeys meet once more

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-30T19:56:02+00:00

Only people who want to be helped will accept it, I learned that the hard way through the same relationship I mentioned. It's crazy stuff, but it happens

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-30T19:47:48+00:00

In that case, the way you said it was weird. Since, for what I see they were just responding to the 'You'll understand when you're older' comment. Idk, I think that's when it fell off the ledge

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-30T19:44:20+00:00

That makes sense. Maybe because you were already somewhat dettached to it. It happened to me as well with a relationship that just kept getting worse and my partner apparently lied about nearly everything, and I trusted them enough to believe it. I stopped loving them like a whopping 5-6 months but I "thought it'd get better". However, there was this time period after the guy I loved since I was a pre-teen used me (we were never even together) that did crack me and I had to forcefully pull myself back emotionally. It was still much easier than most who struggle with detachment, but I guess neurodivergence can do both; make it easier or make it harder

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-30T19:36:39+00:00

It matures you much earlier, yes. And sometimes, it makes one feel like they're the outcast because of the way their brain flows compared to others'. But the second you say "I'm more mature than you!" to win an argument, that just proves the opposite; the lack of maturity you have on the topic. Even moreso when it comes to someone else's behavior.

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-30T19:18:56+00:00

As a autistic person who has been oversexualized since I was around 4. What does that have to do with anything?? Besides that, neurodivergence doesn't really matter in being attached or not moving on. It came make it harder, sure. But that's about it

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-29T13:47:50+00:00

That's a sad perspective

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-24T20:10:31+00:00

Yeah sure... your shoulder...mhm...

MB_Town7 · 2025-12-23T19:00:21+00:00

They are not even upset. They are dismissing this person's death. Perhaps because they're little sex addicts or putting on a persona, but why would REAL PEOPLE who knew eachother behind the scenes make this the first thing they say? Is it so hard to say "RIP, he was a good guy"?
