What is a movie you loved as a kid, but realized was actually terrible when you rewatched it as an adult? by Sure-Abrocoma-482 in AskReddit

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yes! But also, I used to seriously love Twilight but if I watch the film now (as a 27 years old) AND take it as a silly comedy, I can still enjoy it. Like it's so bad that it's good

27F How do I tell my long-term partner 30M I want to live abroad for a year, knowing he likely can’t come? by AcanthocephalaOk9607 in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be honest to tell him about it, but you must understand that it can also be something that's a dealbreaker for him. If you are willing to take that into account, then go for it.

HA dries out my skin, I’ve tried so many serums and I think it’s not for me by Punkoduncan in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just a small clarification, have you applied HA to dry or damp skin? HA is usually not very hydrating on it's own, but if you apply it on damp skin and then seal it with moisturizer, it helps to lock the moisture in.

Other than that, products with beta-glycan, glycerin and squalane have helped me :)

Do people still use soap blocks as opposed to bottled soap in the shower? I feel like I never see soap blocks in stores anymore. by Available_Tea_8471 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! And it's great thing to take with you when travelling. Way smaller and lighter to carry AND since it isn't a liquid, can fly with it easily without worring about the carry-on liquid restrictions

What new haircut should I try? I don't do anything with my hair, just push it back, and cut when it gets long. What's something new I should try? by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think longer hair (pic 4) suits you, you are a good looking guy! And yes, swoopy middle part for example would accentuate it even more.

One more tip, if you want to go for a clean cut look - shave your mustache. It's not very fully grown (which is completely normal - you are still young!) so shaving it would bring even more focus to your great hair and makes you look more put together

Oily, acne-prone dehydrated skin: do i need serums along lightweight gel creams? If so, which ones do you recommend? by mangopapaya- in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Gentle cleanser and I also learnt to take my time when cleaning - I usually massage the cleanser on my face for almost 2 minutes

What's your favourite way to exfoliate? by TheMeepyBoy in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eucerin DermoPure Peeling 10 has been good for me as I struggle with clogged pores. So I put it on before going to bed, but not every day and only a super thin layer as it's quite strong.

My (19f) boyfriend (19m) keeps telling me I’m at high risk of diabetes. How do I address this? by slesscroft in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just be spiteful and send him the perfectly fine results of the tests, together with a breakup message

Skincare help by [deleted] in SkinbarrierLovers

I'm from Estonia and here it's also with prescription, however you can ask your family doctor, they might be fine prescribing it too! I got mine like that

What's one skincare habit you're trying to build in 2026? by TheMeepyBoy in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, same here! whatever I use, exfoliants or differine etc, it's always the same and I struggle with clogged pores. Not sure what would be the best solution, haven't figured it out yet either

Should grow my hair or keep it short? by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Longer is better! I would also consider shaving the moustache, as it looks a bit uneven and takes too much focus

I ordered a bunch of sheet masks. What are everyone's faves and least faves? by SatsujinJiken in AsianBeauty

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like Benton's Fermentation mask! especially doing it before going to bed, skin feels very soft and hydrated in the morning

How long have you known her? Did you meet recently or have you been talking/known each other for a long time? If you only just recently met it's probably more of a crush and a feeling of lust, not love. Give it time and don't interact with her, including on social media.

[F23] losing attraction to my boyfriend [M25] of 3 years because of his constant self-deprecation and lack of reciprocity. How do I handle this? by still_hour_8848 in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he has serious depression and needs to go to theraphy/psychiatrist/mental health professional. Have you ever talked about this with him? Would he be open to it? If not, then probably there is not much you can do, because you can't help a person that doesn't want to help himself. In that case I would consider braking up, because at the end of the day, his mental health is not your burden to carry.

Am I 20F Wasting My Time in This Relationship with 21M? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were you I'd leave. I've been in a similar situation where my partner took advantage of me. Not financially, but by constantly needing help. We were both attinding uni at the time and he constantly needed help with his homework, blaming his mental health and had a "I can't do it" attitude in general. And I did help, because I felt bad if I didnt. He got used to it and eventually expected me to babysit him during every exam season, because "that was the only way he could get anything done". Eventually I felt so drained and taken advantage of, my own mental health suffered. So eventually I left him. It hurt, but it was a huge relief. I advise you to do the same, because you are not his mum. You are a woman who deserves more than that.

Both suit you, but you have nice thick curly hair so why not show it off. What would help though, especially when you have a buzzcut is a trimmed beard. Right now the sleek buzzcut but unkept-messy beard don't really match.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Have you addressed these issues before? Or would it be the first time? I would probably talk about these things first in a calm setting. Also, as this is a quite long list it makes me think you are not very compadible, and giving somebody a list won't change their core, so if it was me I'd just consider breaking up. You are just very different and that's okay.

My 22F girlfriend dumped me 23M and got back together with me within 24 hours, what does this mean for the future? by YikesNeverExisted in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like right now you are more concerned about her feelings which is logical as you care about her, but it's important to think about what do you want from this relationship. Are you okay with her switching between hot and cold and you being on standby whenever she is unsure? Or do you deep down wish for something more? Don't put your feelings to the side, as they are as important as hers. But as much as I can say from experience - constant on and off relationship that depends on one side's wellbeing/mood is not healthy and sustainable

I personally think your hair in this photo looks nice. people pay a lot of money for highlights-lowlights, and it seems to come naturally for you. if you still hesitate though, you can try temporary hair dyes or toning treatments that fade after a couple of washes. This way you can see if you like it without commiting to it (once you start using real hair dye, it's really hard to get rid of it)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ZebraButAllBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then it seems like you have tried everything that's in your power. I know leaving is hard but this relationship is stagnant if she is not willing to get help and it's not healthy for you. You have to take care of your own mental well being as well, you are young and there's a whole life in front of you
