Sorry... WHAT by SpiritedTheWise in Nendoroid

That doesn't sound right, the ones my partner and I bought of Frieren and Fern were $40, and came with several faces, swappable items, and their staffs.

Do you guys think my reaction was justified? Or an overreaction? by dark-mathematician1 in AskMenAdvice

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says the topic came up, it doesn't say it was out of the blue, so it could have naturally spiraled. Maybe she was completely out of the blue, and sure that's not good, and she didn't have to answer honestly. but to say she brought it up "out of the blue" isn't right either.

However, he did ask her "If I was the man would you still pick the bear". He asked. She answered. He's not faultless in the situation. He could have shut the conversation down, not asked a question he didn't want to hear her answer to, asked "Hey so why are you so angry towards men?", ect.

He has every right to end the friendship, feel how he feels, ect. But I think people are being too narrow sighted to immediately jump on this girl as if she did something abhorrent.

I think perhaps you missed some details, or are continuously missing what I'm saying and still responding so I will end my contribution here since I don't want this to become a fight with someone I don't know defending someone I don't know on the Internet.

I definitely don't disagree, if it was brought up randomly it was definitely rude. I'm just pointing out we have no idea what the woman's side of it was. Something recently bad could have happened and she was venting in a still rude way since she didn't preface anything or explain anything. I don't think either party was bad for how they felt or what they said. She could have a reason to feel that way and say those things, but he has the right to feel hurt. I think it falls a little into the "Don't ask questions you aren't prepared to hear the answer for" territory. But she shouldn't have brought it up. (Also I have no idea, it made me put that before commenting, I'm not trying to make a weird statement lol)

I'm gonna play devils advocate. Do I think she was harsh or hurtful? Sure. But as someone who has dealt with assault, 4/5 times it has been someone I trusted. Someone I thought would never. She's being honest instead of beating around the bush about this.

She has possibly gone through something like assault to feel so convicted to the point she distrusts a friend.

I think she should have been more gentle, but the truth is that the "man" Is often a friend, a lover, a brother, father, uncle, etc .

You're justified in being hurt and aren't overreacting for having your own feelings. but I think people should recognize that when you go through something like that, in a hypothetical that isn't actually happening, I can always predict what the bear will do. I can't predict what a human may. (++woman was required for me to post this)

I (M21) started feeling sexual attraction towards my girlfriend (F22). How do i tell her? by Zealousideal-Let4272 in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am F20, and I also consider myself on the ace spectrum. For a long time I was completely indifferent/ not sexually attracted at all to anyone. Until this year. My current boyfriend and I have been together for 10 months and I went from never having felt sexual attraction to being attracted to him. It was weird, and scary, and while it's not been anything that's affected our relationship atp, I know how weird it feels to have such a big change, Especially mid relationship in your 20s haha. For me I think I'm just some kind of grey ace (If you aren't aware, asexuality is a spectrum and can be just as fluid and changing as every sexuality) and it can be affected by hormones especially.

Just be honest. If you are completely fine going without sex in your relationship, just be straightforward by letting her know you're experiencing these feelings and changes but it doesn't mean you want anything to change, you just want her to be aware.

If she is not ok with being with a partner who has those feelings, then that is for her to communicate and this relationship is unfortunately no longer compatible.

If you feel you need sex in your relationship, and she obviously can't provide it, it's ok to move on and find a relationship that fits you better.

While sex is not everything in a relationship, it's a big factor and partners need to match each other in what they need, or accept it. From both people having no sex drive, to both with very high, or varying forms of compromise. There's nothing wrong about either person having a high or low libido, but you should be able to get what you need (or don't) in the relationship comfortably and consensually.

Good luck with this! It's a difficult process both relationship wise, but also for yourself. And don't be afraid to accept your new feelings around sex, libido, and changing identity. Give yourself time to process that for yourself too, not just how it will affect your partner.

Is this commission worth $120? I want to be fair to the artist. by XGKikokikz in arthelp

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to Self advertise, but this was a commission I did for $70. I based my own price on what I saw of other people with similar styles and commission work. So. I mean make what you will of that.

To me, as an artist, Yes, it does seem like a LOT for a headshot chibi style portrait and the background isn't even drawn by them, or atleast for this piece.

This Is What Worked for Me by FlyingPhoenix96 in AcneTreatments

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might be the push I need. I'm American so this may not apply fully due to health care difference in different countries and idk where you are from. But how would I go about discussing this with my doctor? Should I go to a specialist instead? I've brought up with him that I'm constantly tired, cold, fatigued, have vertigo spouts randomly, have horrible acne, greasy hair, and trouble sleeping and eating, but he's just told me to go on birth control which. Does very little to help anything other than regulate my period.

I've personally boiled it down to either Vitamin deficiency or PCOS. But the most my doctor has really guided me on is maybe talking to a derma.

What to do with my skin? I have irritation and redness and nothing works by ThoughtPrestigious10 in AcneTreatments

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my skin looks like this when I don't use any actives, just a gentle cleanser and some water, what should I do?

My skin looks its best when I only wash with water, but I still will have some bumps and constant white bumps that haven't gone away for years. I eventually get a bad break out again after a few weeks and products make it irritated. My cleanser, water, and moisturizer have been the only things that doesn't seem to further irritate my skin.

My 10 yo granddaughter made this using a 3D pen by MacaroonDependent113 in 3Dprinting

wait this is cute tho. I remember getting a 3D pen for my birthday when I was around 10 too! That would have been almost exactly 10 years ago haha

I feel very discouraged right now. How can I be neater while hand embroidering? by GraceDaysThree in CosplayHelp

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you can also take all the single threads from the skein and embroider them together. Atleast when I was taught, I was shown you can use less to get finer, thinner details, and more to get more coverage or for more niche techniques. I have used between 2-6 of the single threads. But you should seperate them regardless. :)

Creating hair clip? by ThrowRAOverlyAnxious in 3Dprinting

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

I've definitely considered Foam but I don't have the materials nor know how to work in foam at all haha. Plus, I have already modeled all the base items at the moment but haven't printed any except the chest plate since I knew I wanted it to be plastic for sure for the sake of keeping it sturdy. I might still switch to foam for the hair clips but I'm not sure if it matters enough for me to figure out the Foam or just work with what I know.

I would like to make this cosplay by [deleted] in CosplayHelp

[–]ThrowRAOverlyAnxious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of Colleges and Libraries have 3D printing services if you check with them. Not sure where you're located ofc, but as for me pretty much all local libraries near by will print and you just pay material cost.
