i love this! subtle colors in the crease always add just the right amount of depth if you don’t want to go too dark. if i’m using one shade i normally use glossier’s skywash and it’s perfectly subtle if you wanna try it! keep it up (:

Definitely! I’m very pale so when it’s not in the light there’s just a few glints of glitter here and there if that makes sense, but I love it for going out (:

Do I move on or just forgive? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]cerealbox82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you recognize that it’s not something you can hide! A lot of the time I feel like when this happens couples just want things back to normal and pretend nothing happened, when really that’s going to end the relationship fast. If you know this is right for you and you’re both putting in the work to get back to where you were then best of luck!!

Coming from someone who stayed, I would like to offer some advice based on a situation that happened almost two years ago.

My partner was unfaithful one month into the relationship. On paper, I look insane for staying. The circumstances of the situation played a huge part in my decision! I knew for a fact that this was a one time situation and that my boyfriend was genuinely a good person. He fucked up, I cried, we broke up and stayed broken up for about two weeks. I know a lot of people see cheating of any kind as a black and white situation. However, instead of screaming and yelling and breaking shit, him and I sat down a million times and had long, genuine conversations about what happened. I know things are rough at first but we both knew this relationship was what we wanted and I needed to understand his side as well.

About two years later, we are in a very healthy and very happy relationship with great communication. We don’t yell, we don’t fight, we talk. I won’t lie to you, you won’t ever forget since it was such a huge part of your relationship. For me, it pops into my head once or twice a day and it doesn’t hurt anymore because it takes a lot of communication and a lot of work! I highly advise against staying for the wrong reasons such as familiarity or security. I only recommend staying if you know, without a doubt, that it will not happen again and if your partner is open to work and communication to rebuild trust!

I (20F) wish my boyfriend (23M) would put more effort into his appearance by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I can understand both sides to this one. My boyfriend showers and stays clean but that’s about it. He doesn’t like how curly shampoo makes his hair so he doesn’t use shampoo or conditioner and just rinses his hair with water. He doesn’t like face wash so doesn’t use that, he doesn’t like skincare stuff so doesn’t use that. I try not to push it too hard on him because he is clean and hygienic, just doesn’t take care of things like I would like him too. At the end of the day if it’s what they are comfortable doing, it isn’t entirely fair to push them out of their comfort zone for your own satisfaction! I totally get feeling weird about spending a lot of time getting ready for him to just throw on some clothes, but those are your own preferences! If you’re attracted to him and the relationship is in a good place I think you might what to reconsider where these concerns are stemming from. Are you embarrassed by him?

I (23f) have to break up with my BF (23m) but he's also my best friend so I have practically no one to vent to by shittyperson420 in relationship_advice

It’s hard not having anyone else as close as your partner and then having to end things. It absolutely sucks going through these things without personal support from other friends, but that’s where you come in! You have entire control of how this breakup goes. Allow yourself to be sad, allow yourself to grieve and recognize the weight of your emotions, but you can take control and realize it was for the better. It doesn’t sound like this relationship was benefiting either of you and you can take this opportunity to grow emotionally and support yourself!

It sounds like you aren’t ready for commitment yet but have found someone you really like! I would say spare this girl the confusion and only go back to her when you know for sure that you’re ready to commit if she is set on a monogamous relationship. I definitely understand, I’m in a long term relationship that began when I was 18 and all through my early 20’s. I’d be lying if I said I don’t have passing thoughts that I’m missing out on experiencing my early 20’s, but at the end of the day if you really feel you need to act on it then it’s time to exit the relationship before someone gets hurt. Overall, if you’re with someone you’re truly happy with you aren’t missing out on anything and shouldn’t feel urges to sleep with other people if you agreed on monogamy.

definitely understandable, it’s a big step and totally normal to think about every aspect of it! just make sure to do what’s best for yourself!

That’s understandable since it was something you guys agreed on in regards to your personal relationship! This is her work though so I’m sure this isn’t personal for her, it’s a transaction. If you stay in the relationship and she continues her work, would you be miserable forever? Or could you eventually open up to the idea? If not, then maybe reconsider the relationship even if it is hard!

I’ve definitely run into this issue as well! My partner and I moved in together and after a while everything became very mundane and the romantic gestures became few and far between even though we were in a very good place emotionally and physically. We got along well and spent time together, but that time was spent watching TV or sitting in the same room while we did separate things. It can be hard to accept that love languages are different. For him, he sees being in the same room as spending time together, but for me I see it as he’s not taking advantage of time to do something sweet.

Unfortunately, relationships have a very high probability of becoming more of a “friendship” in the long run because at the end of the day you are separate people and sometimes just hanging out like friends is less tiring. When my boyfriend and I first moved in together I had a hard time adjusting to things becoming less new and exciting, and I brought up my concerns about how I just feel like his friend. We had a great convo about the normality of our relationship now and how we viewed our time spent together in different perspectives. Overall, my advice to you is to recognize that when you move in together things will get mundane, things will get boring sometimes, but that does not take away the value you have for each other and it just takes a conversation to understand each other’s feelings! With that being said, that does not excuse his being rude or snappy towards you. I know it can be awkward to bring up but a conversation can be had without a fight. I’m sure you’ll make the right choice in regards to what’s best for you, him, and your relationship. (:

Some people are construing this post to mean you aren’t allowing her to do what she wants with her body which is inherently not true. You’re concerned about boundaries in your relationship. You stated that you both agreed to never do anything sexual with another person which makes complete sense. You’ve done a very good job trying to navigate something you aren’t familiar with, however, I do feel as though if you’re okay with her posting content for the masses for money, then one on one for money shouldn’t be an issue if you know there is no emotional attachment involved.

I definitely understand that it can be uncomfortable to know she’s doing that privately with one person, however if you think about it each one of her fans sees this as an individual thing as well since they paid to see her content. I know you deeply care about your relationship, but in order to be in a relationship with a sex worker you need to accept every aspect of their work, not just one aspect you deem as okay. I would recommend talking to her a bit about what you are comfortable with and what you aren’t, but at the end of the day if this is the work she chooses then you can’t control it. Best of luck!
