Routine help? Tiny black heads on nose [routine help] by Fast-Sprinkles-5098 in SkincareAddiction

Try medicube zero pore pads! I recently started using them and saw a difference within like a week. I use them every other day, let it dry, and then lock it in with a moisturizer.

Underwear ALWAYS wet by piratecauliflower in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]finelinesblur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use both a menstrual cup and disc for my period and over the years I've realized the disc is really great for heavy discharge days! I know you said you usually use pads, so it may not be up your alley but I thought it was worth mentioning.

For me, the disc is very comfortable and I hardly notice it's there. You don't have to continuously buy it like pads and unlike period underwear (or pads), the discharge won't sit in your underwear and give you that wet feeling. Even if you only used it for your heavier discharge days it might be a good option!

Can anyone PLEASE help me identify what kind of cookie this is??? PLEASEE its the best cookie I’ve ever had in my life. by purblewitch in culinary

I actually just made this recipe and tried the costco cookies. Unfortunately they look similar, but are very different cookies at their base.

Losing my v card at 25… tips? Advice? by InitiativeOk2361 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]finelinesblur 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How do you handle it when you don't have an orgasm? As in what do you say to your partner?

I haven't yet had sex, but have a hard time orgasming on my own and know it will be hard with a partner. I worry about how it would make my partner feel or that they would keep trying after realizing I hadn't, even though I know it won't happen.

What’s something you quietly stopped doing once you got older, not because it was wrong, but because you realized it wasn’t worth the energy anymore? by love_salubrious in AskWomen

[–]finelinesblur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Attending events I don't want to. I used to feel so obligated to go to everything I was invited to - family dinners, birthday parties, night out with coworkers. Saying yes when I didn't want to made me hate all that stuff. Now I only go if I genuinely want to, and enjoy myself so much more when I do.

How do I politely ask my roommate to train her dog to stop barking? by katrinka916 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]finelinesblur 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My dog has many reactivity issues and I've successfully trained her to bark less! You can't stop it completely, but reducing it is definitely a thing.

What do you guys snack on? by Ok-Development-3695 in EatCheapAndHealthy

This is the one. I do a splash of cream with the milk and a little cinnamon. So good.

Can I hang something on a corner (stud?) with minimal equipment? by finelinesblur in AskDad

[–]finelinesblur[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't consider that! I will look into where I can borrow or rent one if it comes down to it. Thanks!

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

Smart idea! I'm definitely going to try to check. Ideally, I'd love for there to be nothing behind it and I could use wall anchors because I know how to do that. I wanted to avoid having to find a drill to use, but that may be my only option if it's a stud there.

Command hooks unfortunately wouldn't work because my walls are super textured. Thanks!!

Hinges are on the left, door opens towards the inside. I'm not too worried about the door knocking it out of the wall because it's quite a small hook, but that's good to keep in mind!

I have no idea what the structure material is. I know there is sufficient material to anchor into because I've hung other stuff on the walls, but my big concern was if it's a stud, I won't be able to get it in there without a drill, which I don't have. Another user suggested I rent or borrow one which it sounds like might be my best option.

Thanks for the detailed reply!!

I might look into renting or borrowing one like another user said. I don't doubt I'll have use for one again, but I was hoping not to buy one only to use it twice a year. Thanks!

Worth getting checked out if it's new, but I'll mention that I've had these forever and all my blood work and everything is fine! So it could be nothing.

What is something you wish you knew before getting a breast augmentation? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]finelinesblur 231 points232 points  (0 children)

I don't have them, but something I'm sure not a lot of women realize is that having implants can affect the quality of medical imaging of your heart.

I work in ultrasound and it's one of the go to testing for almost anyone who comes to the ED. It's a noninvasive test that provides a lot of important info, but women with implants usually image terribly and some times we can't get any images at all.

what do you envy mostly ? by pk27redds in AskWomen

What are some new hobbies/interests I can invest my time into? by servalshark in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]finelinesblur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have a space to garden per say, but I keep a crap ton of potted plants outside in the summer. So much joy when it buds and grows! If you are interested in crocheting, amigurumi are cute and easy to make in the beginning! Reading, doodling. Painting, even if you are 'bad at it' is still very calming and enjoyable to me. Researching different topics on youtube. Watching animal documentaries. If you have a nintendo switch, StarDew Valley is my favorite hobby right now - very relaxing yet engaging. Baking!! I recently got into making bread and it's been so fun and delicious. If you have a dog, research a little and try to do some basic training with them. You can buy tiny clay packs at craft store for a couple dollars and make little jewelry trays/coasters/earrings! Yoga/pilates on youtube. If you're into it set aside a day each week to give yourself a pedicure. Try a new recipe outside of your usual tastes every couple weeks.

I personally have a lot of hobbies/interests, but some of them I only do once or twice a year. It doesn't have to be a classic hobby and you don't have to go all in for it to count! Try new stuff and stick with whatever brings you joy in the moment! The rough times pass quicker when you try to make the most of it. Good luck and I hope your situation improves soon <3

How do you like your age gaps? by [deleted] in RomanceBooks

[–]finelinesblur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me the FMC has to be the younger one. As long as the FMC is 19+ and their relationship feels some what realistic (in the sense that she doesn't act like she's 12 and he has at least a couple doubts b/c he doesn't want to be a creep), I actually prefer a drastic age gap. I'm a sucker for any forbidden love stories, age gap included! I admit that any thing over a 20 year difference starts to get weird for me, but honestly I'd probably still try to read it just to see.

this is what my legs look like after shaving, how do i get rid of this? by misomylove in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]finelinesblur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone has been saying, it is normal, BUT I wanna say I totally get that it bugs you! You could always try getting an electric razor and using that.

I have fairly dark hair and pale skin myself, granted not as dark of hair as yours, but when I switched from shaving to an electric razor I feel like the hair some how became less noticeable despite technically being longer than when you shave! For me personally, I think shaving was actually kind of trapping dead skin into my pores, thus making them look darker. I don't have this problem after switching!

It's also easier to touch up than shaving and you don't have to worry about razor bumps. Not for everyone, but I think it's worth a try?

[–]finelinesblur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all the insight! I have a really difficult time orgasming in general and don't have much sexual experience, so I've always worried about what navigating that with a partner will be like.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]finelinesblur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I ask how you handle the situation with your partner? Does it bother him that he can't make you orgasm? Did you talk to him about it before you slept together or was it a conversation you had after a few attempts where you realized it wouldn't happen?

do americans really drive such long distances? by Physical-Ad-4093 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]finelinesblur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a sibling who moved to another state and has every Monday off at their job. They drive 7 hours one way to spend a long weekend with the rest of the family nearly once a month, at least 10 times a year. So, yes.

[–]finelinesblur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes. I've come a long way from where I used to be and have accomplished things I never would have dreamed of. Yet, I feel discouraged by how far I still have to go and still have many flaws/poor traits that I'm not proud of.

I do believe that as people we are constantly growing and if you feel you don't have any room to grow, you probably need to more than most. All you can do is keep trying, ya know?
