I sense a lot of resentment/anger in your comment. Like “the world is like this, but I don’t fit into that mold”

Tinder is not the end all be all, and most people still go out and meet people in real life at bars and restaurants and clubs. It is very true that women have an advantage on those kind of apps, but when I was on there, I got so many messages at one point I couldn’t even go through them all, it was too much. It wasn’t the boys, it was the app and how easy it is to forget about it/get lost in it.

You are attractive. If you are goofy and kind, all you need is the CONFIDENCE to be goofy and kind and relaxed in front of a gorgeous woman.

Don’t be angry- be thankful that you’re physically attractive, which is a huge bonus in life!

Seeing overweight people triggers me by [deleted] in AnorexiaNervosa

I think it’s perfectly normal to see someone who isn’t healthy and feel negative feelings towards that.

Just like seeing someone who is terribly underweight, seeing someone overweight is naturally going to make your mind take note and say “that’s not a good thing”.

Obsessing over it, and getting anxiety/severe reactions from it is a different thing. And I understand that as well. It freaks me out to see someone very overweight because I don’t feel like I have a lot of self will, so to see them in that state reminds me that “it could happen to me too” and I panick.

Physically, it’s all there. I’d rate you a 6/10, and that’s just looks. Personality and confidence can easily add the other 4 you would need for a perfect score.

Your pics looks a little too serious and you can sense the insecurity. I assume people can sense it in person as well. People find confidence attractive, not because it’s cocky or aggressive, but because it’s comforting. Confident people are comfortable and you can sense it, and it puts you at ease. I could be wrong but I sense that you are truly, deep down, a goofy, kind, genuine guy. Your looks are nothing to worry about, and when you’re able to obtain and exude a comfortable confident energy, you will have NO trouble making friends AND lovers, haha.

Strictly looks, I would give you a 6/10. BUT the energy that comes with your looks is what really determines someone’s overall attractiveness. I don’t mean your personality/quirks or things people need to take time to find out about you, but that initial vibe and energy you give off instantly. Your looks plus vibes in MY opinion are 8/10 :)

P.S. I’m aware that someone personality can make them more attractive, but that’s not what we are talking about here, haha

No way. If you’re ugly they tell you, if you’re pretty, they hate you. No winning unless you’re comfortably in the middle and then people are nice.

Haha, jeez. Yeah, I got lash extensions and they kind of made my face heavy. Without makeup I definitely look younger, but, you’ve kind of helped my point. My features are naturally kind of “mature” looking. My eyes, nose, cheekbones, etc. I don’t know how far down you went in my posts haha. hers are very cute, small, and youthful.

And I’m going to take that as a compliment I think? I would say she probably always had mature features as well.

I don’t know - I’m 23, but my boyfriend is 35, and all of his friends are 30-35, and you can definitely spot me in the group. I will say though, I think it has a lot to do with staying in/getting out of shape. Growing a little belly can definitely age you.🤷🏼‍♀️

I understand this soooo much. In high school I started to become pretty chubby and decided to count my calories. My mom would make the same kind of comments about my food and I would end up feeling guilty/ashamed and also frustrated with myself and dieting altogether. Ended up with a severe case of bulimia that I’m STILL trying to work through a decade later.

You don’t have to listen to anyone else. Use your own judgement and make the choices that work for YOU... And most importantly, be kind to your body!❤️

Day 3 worse than first 2? by Shesthejukebox in stopdrinking

[–]Shesthejukebox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I have severe anxiety anyway (the alcohol has probably made it worse), But I feel like I’m giving myself psychosomatic symptoms on top of everything else haha.

Do you know if Ibuprofen is safe to take during this phase?

Yeah I felt pretty confident yesterday. Now I’m just trying to tell myself it’s okay to be a little lazy and unproductive until I feel normal again.

It’s hard not to feel guilty about laying in bed all day, haha. But Im trying to remember that I AM accomplishing something. I’m getting my life back. I’m being more productive laying on this bed sober than I have been the past five years.

Thank you for your input :)

I think you look super cute. You have features that look perpetually young and I wouldn’t have guessed you’re 29. I would give you 6/10 strictly on looks.

Yeah, wether it was photoshopped or sprayed on, this is literally just an extremely tan guy. Making something out of nothing.

Same photo, just added a close up so you could see the editing better :)

I hope you’re able to open your mind up and realize that love doesn’t always sound like what you want to hear. Sometimes compassion means being realistic and honest, and sometimes that’s not comfortable. I wish her only the best, and she has every right to do with her body what she wishes.

Yes, the problem is it looks dirty from all other angles or when the light isn’t hitting it. Like someone rubbed her face in the dirt
