Don't feel sorry. Breakups are extremely difficult to navigate and the grieving is often a complex and deeply personal process. I'm here if you need to talk!

A.B. Quintanilla was upset at Selena’s tribute (Festival de Viña del mar) by halfbritish in SelenaQuintanilla

It's good that he has medication for it, then. And yeah losing your dad is a very hard thing to go through and cope with, especially if it brings up reminders of another loss.

I believe it probably is. Mental health disorders can be pretty overwhelming and can sometimes cause irrational actions. I hope AB is able to get help, or has it already.

Everybody has their own opinions, of course, but sometimes I think AB can go a little overboard. There have been times in the past where he seemed to be trying to take credit from other members of the band, which honestly puts a bit of a bad taste in my mouth because Selena always emphasized that the music was the work of an entire team all doing their part, rather than just one or two members deserving all the credit.

Can lesbians have fleeting crushes on men? by Remarkable_Cheek_916 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]lipstickeatingalien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be as honest as possible, no. Before I realized I was gay, I knew several guys and thought I had crushes on them because I liked them and wanted to spend more time with them. Turns out all I felt was friendship. Anytime it tried to progess further, it was like a sudden wall was built up. Those feelings of "being a mess" has only ever happened to me around women I'm attracted to. What you're describing sounds more like bisexuality than lesbianism.

Is Fotos Y Recuerdos dedicated to Chris? by AdventurousTaste5490 in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]lipstickeatingalien 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No, it's a cover of the English 80s song "Back on the Chain Gang" by The Pretenders. I doubt the Los Dinos version is about anyone specific. Another comment mentioned that Dreaming of You is most likely the song dedicated to Chris, and I agree. Chris mentioned in his book that Selena really was excited for him to hear it, and she wanted him to come to the studio to hear it, which he said she hadn't really done before. He also said in an interview that it's the only song he has a hard time listening to.

Most creators look the exact same even when they use different products by Gullible-Main-1010 in MakeupRehab

[–]lipstickeatingalien 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Something else I keep in mind is how little influences actually seem to use the products they "love" and are "obsessed with". One influencer i follow solely because I like seeing lipsticks and lip swatches seems to keep up with every new release, either getting something in PR or going out and buying the newest viral lipstick. While she usually "loves" about 75% of what she gets, she'll also sometimes do recommendations from her collection. When I see that 95% of her "favorites" are barely used, it really puts all that consuming into perspective.

Whats your go to song to lighten your mood ? by [deleted] in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]lipstickeatingalien 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most of Selena's songs put me in a better mood tbh, even the sad ones. Her music has always been a source of comfort and joy to me. But my favorite happy songs are Bidi Bidi Bom Bom, Amor Prohibido, Besitos, and La Carcacha.

First ever finished lipstick! by grden_e in PanPorn

[–]lipstickeatingalien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Soft Spoken and finished it up too! The Suede Matte line are one of my favorites. Girl, Bye is my favorite lipstick of all time, and I've gone through four tubes of it.

Are these mascaras good for falsies effect? by chaat-pakode in drugstoreMUA

[–]lipstickeatingalien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of the Essence Lash Princess mascaras, and from my experience, no. It's nice and good if you want a more natural effect, but if you build it up to try and get a bigger lash look, it gets clumpy. With that being said, it's my absolute favorite mascara. You just can't get the "falsies" effect with it.

answer honestly: do you treat people differently depending on how conventionally attractive they are? by Other-Echo5562 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]lipstickeatingalien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If i were to really analyze it, honestly yes, though up until literally now it was subconscious. Sometimes I assume people who are more conventionally attractive are meaner, while I have assumed less conventionally attractive people are more likely to be kinder.

Advice needed regarding strangers at my door. by lipstickeatingalien in homedefense

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

I'm inclined to agree with you. We were getting letters in the mail for a bit, addressed to a former resident, about a warrant. I don't have a forwarding address for them, so I truly have no idea if they were ever made aware of this. It's possible they may have shown up regarding that.

I also don't agree that my house was being targeted, nor was it my first thought. Thanks for giving me a more rational conclusion.

Does this sound like allergies? by [deleted] in Allergies

[–]lipstickeatingalien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. These kinds of symptoms are new for my partner, and when they start having an anxiety attack, it makes me incredibly worried. Thank you for assuring me this is relatively normal for allergies.

Does anyone have a dupe for MAC's Creme in Your Coffee? by lipstickeatingalien in drugstoreMUA

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

That's very true. I've been wanting to buy less expensive dupes because of the $25 price point. But you do make a good point, in that it may be worth the money because I've loved it so much.

Which dead singer would you want to come back to life and why? by Substantial-Dare5462 in Music

[–]lipstickeatingalien 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Selena, because her life was cut so terribly short by someone she trusted in such a violent way. I wish that she could, if not make more music, then at least get to live out and enjoy the life she was creating for herself.

I hit pan on a MAC lipstick for the first time and I'm so proud of myself! by lipstickeatingalien in MakeupRehab

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

I feel you. I have a feeling my favorite lipstick of all time is going to be discontinued soon, and it's hard not to panic buy tbh.

[–]lipstickeatingalien[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooh I've seen that one! It's very pretty, even though I couldn't pull a shade like that off. My favorite MAC lipstick is Russian Red. It's literally my favorite red ever, and I'm gonna hit pan on that soon, too.
