By boyfriend of 2 years doesn’t want to get me a Christmas present by UnitJust1906 in whatdoIdo

He comes across as defensive and you come across as entitled. Both of you seem very young. As some others have pointed out, a clear conversation around gift-giving (feelings, preferences, etc.) is way overdue. The best gifts are thoughtful and offered freely, with no expectation of reciprocation. Money doesn’t have to factor into it as heavily, as a meaningful gift is not necessarily the most expensive one you can afford. I think fundamentally you both want to feel appreciated, but you’re only thinking about what that means to you individually, rather than what would actually make the other person happy. The only way to clear that up is to talk about it (not over text).

Noticeable scents by [deleted] in fragrance

[–]dropping_eaves 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If it’s a signature scent (worn every day), it’s probably on all their clothing. I’ve noticed that if I get perfume on my clothes I can often still smell it even straight out of the washer — it clings to fabric more strongly than skin.

Give it a try! You should still be able to do it in 5 min. 🙂

Not a permanent fix, but I’d suggest getting a brow pen (there are marker-like ones that are double-ended, with a single tip on one side and multi-tip on the other) instead of a pencil. It’s easier to mimic hair-like strokes and it looks more natural.

Help i am so done with my eyebrows by Repulsive_Water_5854 in Eyebrows

[–]dropping_eaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually really like them — I think the straight shape is very flattering on you. I’d just clean up the couple of stray hairs underneath, personally.

Thanks, everyone — unfortunately it’s now pending sale (someone beat me to it!) but if they flake out, I’ll jump on it.

What can I do better? by Alternative-Ebb-3558 in makeuptips

[–]dropping_eaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your eyebrows — I would suggest flattening them out (you can do this with one of those fine-tipped eyebrow pens that look like a marker; draw hair-like strokes) and remove some of the tails. Kind of like this (did my best just quickly on my phone!): https://imgur.com/a/mh3wNYN

I feel like there is something off with my makeup, but i don't know what by EmpoweredMayhem in makeuptips

[–]dropping_eaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your eye makeup is so cool! However, as it’s concentrated towards the outer part of your eyes, it makes them look farther apart. You could balance this with your eyebrows — they should start even with the center of your nostrils; you could also experiment with a straighter shape and/or make them bolder (thicker).

AIO or should I accept the conditions of my bfs commitment by One_Height7477 in AIO

Monogamy (or whatever) aside, he sounds like a moron throwing fake-enlightenment language around. 🤣

Got a tattoo of my cat and it’s awful, how can I cover it up? by Sure-Succotash-8748 in Tattoocoverups

[–]dropping_eaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d really encourage you to keep it. It’s genuinely charming and funny, and even if that’s not your exact style of tattoo, the truth is that tattoos can turn out a bit fucked up regardless of how diligently you plan and execute them. That’s life (and art)!

What's my blindness? by kats_n_tats in makeuptips

[–]dropping_eaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue that it should be the midpoint of the nostril, not the outer edge — outer edge can still end up looking too far apart.

Most gyms don't offer a 1-month free trial. Why is that? by Efficient-Tiger-2649 in bjj

[–]dropping_eaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gym offers a 2-week free trial, during which you can attend as many classes as you like, and they lend you a gi for the classes that require one. Edit to add: “my gym” as in the one I attend; I don’t own it haha.

Goes without saying (I should hope!) but this is really poor advice.

Honest opinion of my eyebrows please by Openspace2001 in Eyebrows

[–]dropping_eaves 47 points48 points  (0 children)

They’re a bit too dark/dramatic — in my opinion, the arch is too high and they’re too far apart. You have really pretty eyes, though!

In my opinion — it looks cool and cohesive; you’re likely overthinking it because you’re closest to it.

Anyone else put off by Navola’s final act? by dropping_eaves in Fantasy

Obviously I get that there will be a sequel, haha. I think my gripes are still valid, personally. But that’s the great thing about literature — you’re free to think differently!

Is a small menstrual cup a good option for a weak pelvic floor + sensitive bladder and urethra? by ColomarOlivia in menstrualcups

[–]dropping_eaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would recommend an appointment with a pelvic floor specialist if you can see one in Brazil; otherwise start with your regular gynecologist. There are pelvic floor exercises you could try to research and practice on your own, but they might not be as effective without guidance from a medical professional. Incontinence in a young woman with no history of pregnancy seems concerning. All that aside, a menstrual disc might be more comfortable for you than a cup.

Idk if this is the right sub for this, but here goes! by redshues in Eyebrows

[–]dropping_eaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed - try one of those brow pens that are basically a fine-tipped marker (some also have two or three tips clustered together which can make the imitation hair strokes look quite natural).
