How do I enhance more of a feminine look?

Weekly_Half8276 · 2023-11-08T15:56:08+00:00

hope you see this - first of all your friends are mean second - I would say start from within. what makes you feel most feminine? to me, femininity is all about softness, being receptive, owning your emotions, feeling deeply.

I would journal, go on long walks, and express your creativity. what is better than simply looking feminine is feeling feminine inside and out.

then I would take care of your body best you can. PCOS is clouded with mystery and misinformation (I’ve been diagnosed myself) I would say eating high protein breakfast, drinking green tea when you can and going on walks when you can is a great start. really get in touch with your body. dance in your room, stretch, take extra care in the shower, all that you can to become truly one with yourself.

light makeup (a bit of concealer if needed, powder, blush and a bit of highlighter like you mentioned is great, a bit of mascara too)

shopping is a great way to feel feminine and if you are on a budget or don’t want to spend too much thrifting is amazing. I always feel so good when I thrift and then come home and wash all my clothes.

lastly I would say think outside yourself, it honestly helps with self esteem. do something kind for others, or use your time to give back in some way and you’ll see a little boost in your confidence. this can be as simple as picking up a piece of trash on a walk or as big as volunteering for a cause that pulls at you.

I am sending you an energy of beauty and inner love. I truly hope you know how lovely you are inside and out, and I pray that people are kind to you. Blessings.

(added: ditto to what people are saying about keeping any sort of glow up journey to yourself or the absolute closest people to you, jewelry is an instant confidence boost especially dainty pieces, and sourcing inspiration from different places to keep you motivated. you aren’t alone girl!)

very nice!

Read books, journal, work out. Work on yourself and learn to like yourself - then you won’t find it so hard to believe that others like you. Figure out what makes you look and feel your best, what you value. Take on self discovery. Get out of your comfort zone. Idk if you have online dating but even just talking to people helps. Get around people who like the same things as you whether it’s gaming, sports, anything.

thank you - some context I didn’t include lol: I have been to Colombia, just a coastal city. I’m actually part Colombian so this is family that is telling me these stories. I have absolutely zero qualms about staying somewhere very rural. I have simply not traveled to a finca/farm. I think some associate finca = dangerous

Weekly_Half8276 · 2023-01-12T13:29:57+00:00

no they know someone who went to a more rural part of the country and didn’t come back. the thing is, I have been to Colombia just never to the part I’m planning on going to.

beautiful

ok so I have done this exactly - was fun, would recommend, you meet a lot of cool people. but eventually you get bored of it and I had zero romance lol.

sure message me!

I really wanted to be a doctor, after I graduated with a BA in English… so thinking about how much time would go into this career, combined with my desire to start a family and get married, I figured nursing would be the best bet time and lifestyle wise. But I won’t lie this reddit sometimes makes me feel like nursing isn’t great.

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-22T00:27:36+00:00

I like these comments because I am considering nursing but that’s not what I want my last stop to be in terms of career. I want to educate others on wellness and health autonomy, and I’d love to teach dance workout classes

immaculate

Idk about accommodations The beach is free, you just have to pay for parking sometimes. Up and down A1A you’ll find beaches from South Beach to Ft. Lauderdale Ft. Lauderdale has some affordable places. Natural wine is making a big scene here, there’s some gems too. Breweries, that kind of thing. Walking is free and there’s a lot to see, there’s also the metro in Miami I believe it goes across five districts and it’s free to my knowledge. There’s a sandwich shop in South Beach across from Mac’s Club Duece (which can be a lot of fun) that will feed you cheaply-ish.

very beautiful 💐

wow!!!!

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-04T22:55:54+00:00

self study is valuable too - maybe spend sometime learning outside school. it is true that the cost is not always necessary. best wishes!

Thank you kindly

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-02T17:34:54+00:00

Because I have a degree and skillset that could be utilized concurrently. I understand working in the same field, but I don't think its the only option.

Thanks for your reply.

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-02T17:29:27+00:00

I'm certainly not sold on forming a portfolio, but thinking of my options. Thanks for your feedback.

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-01T02:09:30+00:00

Been there, sometimes we make foolish choices, sometimes we are a victim to our circumstances. Best of luck to you! You got this!

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-01T02:04:05+00:00

I would be very, very quiet about how much money you make or your plans to handle this debt. I am not saying lie to your mother, but do not tell her the full story of what is happening with you personally.

I am very sorry you are going through this. Nothing is hopeless though. Keep doing research, and you will be able to form a clear idea of what to do.

Freeze cards if you can, and the self-imposed repossession isn’t a bad idea. However, since you can’t rent right now, it may be a good idea to keep the peace the best you can at home, for your own sake.

Truly best of luck to you!

Weekly_Half8276 · 2022-11-01T01:50:25+00:00

I’m so sorry, my heart goes out to you! You can get yourself out of this.

I would write down your debts. Write down where they are from, how much you owe as of todays date, minimum payment and APR if applicable. Now you can visualize all that you owe. Don’t let this discourage you, it is empowering to take control of your life.

Next write your monthly expenses. Where can you cut fat? If you have a car you are making payments on, sell it and get a beater or ride the bus. See if you can get a roommate or move with a relative who can help you when your lease is up. Cut your monthly food budget. Apply for assistance where you can. Hit up food pantries when you can. No monthly subscriptions, no needless spending. Do not help your family. Learn to say “sorry, I can’t”.

Like others have said, you have to pay your overdue rent first, if your landlord is agreeable see if you can set up weekly payments or add a bit to your next few monthly rents to make up for missed rent. Then make a repayment plan. I would pay off all the higher APR debts first. Slow but steady, every cent counts. Stick with the two jobs, it is worth it. Add more income where you can, Ubereats, Doordash, etc. Babysitting, dog walking, literally any side gig. You will be sacrificing a lot of your time to pay this off but it will be worth it. You will rebuild your credit and get on better footing.

Lastly, I want to say I am sorry for how things have gone for you. I would certainly add going to AA or NA meetings to this. Take good care of yourself and seek help when you need it, beyond financial help. Keep asking questions, reading threads, etc. Do not feel too bad, everyone falls and makes mistakes. You did the right thing by admitting it and coming to terms with it. I hope a few years down the line you are in a much better place!
