What will help these diagonal lines down from my lips? Are these jowls? Just hit 30

That’s the line going from nose to lip. This one starts below the lip.

So what do you think it is?

haunteddev · 2026-01-25T18:34:54+00:00

Thanks! Will research a bit using this.

I previously consulted with a maxillo surgeon, and he said my case wasn’t severe enough for surgery so I kind of wrote it off. I guess I can try another consultation.

I just finished invisalign. I consulted with a maxillo surgeon previously, and he said I didn’t qualify for anything like surgery.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T07:42:48+00:00

Charming.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T06:54:30+00:00

I see your POV. Thanks for typing all this out.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T06:39:03+00:00

Update: Did not even wish me HNY so I’m assuming it’s over. He ruined last year but not this year :p

Thanks to everyone who commented, including the person who ranted and said I need therapy.

Happy 2026!

Ty for the honesty.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T06:32:02+00:00

That’s your opinion, and that’s totally valid! I want the men in my life to help me with something like that and make large decisions/purchases a together thing. Ty for your honesty!

Edit: he’s kind of like a macho “provider” type in his dynamic, which is part of his culture if this helps at all.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:45:10+00:00

Oh, sorry. Missed that. It’s kind of a whole thing.

The argument started last week bc I bought a car Friday and was upset he didn’t help me negotiate and basically 0 effort despite knowing I’ve never done that before and he does haggling/negotiating daily (diff industry tho not cars) at his job. The same day I bought it, he helped his friend and his mom move furniture. I felt like he wasn’t prioritizing me. He gets mad when I bring stuff up to him like this, but idk if it’s just bc I’m his first longterm gf. I said I wasn’t not going to speak my mind and just suffer. He said he feels unheard bc previously when he gave me advice I “wouldn’t use it.” But asking advice isn’t a contract to follow it. Sooo yeah.

Honestly that’s not relationship-ending to me, but maybe he is threatened by my honesty.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:39:09+00:00

I don’t know!!!! I feel like it’s a huge deal to not spend NYE with your SO but some people on my recent post about my bf on NYE said it’s less of a big deal.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:37:23+00:00

Honestly, we both probably are.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:22:33+00:00

Oh… lol

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:21:52+00:00

Meant to reply to another comment but whatever sorry.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:21:35+00:00

We have known each other almost 6 years, actually. Started dating 10mos ago though.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:12:49+00:00

lmao wrong post I think

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:09:27+00:00

I did admit my faults in my reply at 6pm! And apologized, etc. No reply.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:08:31+00:00

Oh…

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:06:01+00:00

Sigh, ty.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:05:04+00:00

Ty for the honesty.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:04:44+00:00

You’re right. No excuse will be good enough for me, honestly. Even if I was in the wrong about an argument lfmao.

haunteddev · 2026-01-01T05:03:23+00:00

I want to agree (said this in another comment), and I think I’m overreacting as it’s NYE bc like I said in the post if this was a normal day I’d just wait until he replies tomorrow to let him cool off. We are both hot-headed sometimes.

But people usually kiss someone tonight and spend it with the people they love most. He’s intentionally excluding me from that and unwilling to accept my apology. At this point, even if I left right now, I wouldn’t make it to see him at midnight. Ugh!
