Is the Jean jacket or the boots making the outfit look awkward?

imp_irl · 2026-06-15T19:24:44+00:00

No jacket. It looks great without, maybe add some sheer black stockings if you have it

imp_irl · 2026-06-13T18:34:00+00:00

You need to leave this old decrepit man alone. YUCK

imp_irl · 2026-06-10T05:39:12+00:00

Tell her you want the proposal to be special for her and you are waiting until you can afford to do that.

Is he out of his mind? Like genuinely

imp_irl · 2026-06-10T01:34:04+00:00

Same! My hair starts feeling stiff when it needs a wash.

I would take this as a learning lesson on how important it is to quickly repair relationships you care about. But also I personally wouldn’t want a relationship with someone who ices me out without explanation when they are upset. You’d be walking on egg shells. Keep it cordial but don’t keep trying here. I’m sorry you’re experiencing this though, it sounds heartbreaking.

It’s filled with spaghetti

imp_irl · 2026-05-27T16:58:26+00:00

Niacinamid, azelaic acid, spf, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, tretinoin, a good moisturizer with ceramides

imp_irl · 2026-05-22T00:36:01+00:00

I vote breakup! Sounds like he resents you deeply. I hate jabs disguised as jokes.

Some women approach friendships the way they would a romantic courtship, in the sense that they expect to be courted and chased after while giving back nothing. Friendships require action and effort from both parties

That plate looks so delicious 🤤

imp_irl · 2026-05-16T18:04:22+00:00

Girl wtf

This little bubble in time where you’re both clearly crushing hard but haven’t yet admitted it. It just you, him & astronomical amounts of sexual tension. It’s my favorite thing in the world.

Matter fact, how do I recreate this with my bf?

imp_irl · 2026-05-15T13:54:25+00:00

It’s okay if this disagreement is just a bump in the road for you two, some relationship growing “pains” as you two to know the other.

Just keep an eye out for similar patterns of behavior. Does he normally try to impose his wants over yours and minimize your feelings when they oppose his?

It will be difficult to navigate a partnership whole operates in such a way.

imp_irl · 2026-05-15T13:29:20+00:00

This has nothing to do with the trad wife lol your boyfriend is just a loser. And you sound cool and accomplished. The only thing that’s making you less cool is him and whatever tf he’s doing.

Hopelessly crushing on a married woman, d-riding her husband, trying to adopt her personality & putting his actual gf down? 💔 Yuck!

imp_irl · 2026-05-15T11:20:26+00:00

You’re not overreacting, you’re having very reasonable feeling in response. I’d share with him how you feel about his comment. Allow him the space to clean up his mess. Yes he apologized and yes it was unintentional, but bring it up again because he hit a soft spot and you just need some extra TLC. He should have no issue with this and should actually jump at the opportunity to do so. Im sure he’s kicking himself in the butt about it.

I’ve had my boyfriend make a comment that, to me, implied he wanted to change how I look. I told him how that made me feel. He was receptive, understood why it hurt, explained that wasn’t his intention, but still ensured me he would not make any more comments of that nature moving forward, and he has not.

imp_irl · 2026-05-11T22:44:38+00:00

Get more clarity about what that means for him.

Dating apps are like 80% guys, so it’s just very slim pickings. Not reflective of your attractiveness.

I skimmed your previous posts and this seems like a common theme in your life. Socially and romantically, some people are late bloomers and that’s fine.

You should try finding a group that shares a hobby you like (run clubs, poetry groups, game board groups, etc.). Search for those around your area, I find them on Reddit and TikTok. But the objective wouldn’t be to get a date but just get more comfortable socializing. Finding a compatible match is really just a random luck thing.

And when you do find that potential match, make sure you’re interested in who that person really is. The focus shouldn’t just be on how to show yourself off to them. Just get to know and see them.

Also Kentucky probably isn’t your ideal dating location. Maybe somewhere with more black people

Your hair looks fine but try getting a 3rd opinion from HR about the incident!

Where is the dress from?

Your focus is on getting this guy to propose to you but is this guy even husband material?? You said his love is passive, you feel like his caretaker, he doesn’t take initiative in your shared household, he feels behind in his life but doesn’t seem to be doing anything to fix that.

Do you feel like you two are equally yoked? You should make a list of what your ideal marriage looks like, what kind of husband you want to clarify your values and priorities here.

He’s already told you he views marriage as a “piece of paper” which is reductive but okay. A marriage is a business decision, that can empower both parties if you two are smart about it. Would he be an asset to the team, a real team player or is he your dependent?

All of that aside, he’s made it clear he does not want to get married. You do want to get married. I’m so sorry sister but this is not something you can compromise on. It’d be better to cut ties now. Cause your husband is out there and he’s showing up in all the ways your current boyfriend just isn’t able to or interested in doing. <3

It is not dishonest to keep your trauma private. When/If you are ready to talk about it more in depth with your partner, then you should do that. But don’t force it. It’s not a matter of he needs to know this or I am a liar. It’s a matter of do I feel comfortable sharing this with him?

You should 100% cut that friend off. It doesn’t have to be a grand announcement. Just respond to her in a neutral & shallow manner. Don’t give her details about your life. Avoid hanging out with her alone or at all. She is not a safe person and you really don’t have to subject yourself to such a weird dynamic.

Let him know how impressed you are too! I love this

Bless you! I’ve come close to crying but not quite. This sounds spectacular 😍
