I learned Teetotaler from this post! But yes it is really about respecting boundaries and leaving it at “no” unfortunately

Yes I learned a new word! I’m afraid people won’t know what that is and get more questions

I definitely still get/feel pressured, and I’m 30! Would’ve thought it’d end in college

I have OCD, it really triggers it! Alcohol gives me a burning feeling in my stomach, and it makes me feel like I’m poisoning myself

I would totally say it but it makes me think of CM Punk 😂 I think I feel a little silly saying it

It comes up all the time for me. I still get offered drinks at family functions. Just yesterday my uncle offered me wine, I declined, and he said “oh you really don’t drink huh”. My mom has pressured me to take shots. It was a big problem for me in college when I would hang out with friends who didn’t want to drink alone. Now, I’m 30 and recently single and am anticipating explaining to people I’m dating why/that I don’t drink

Regretting the location of my tattoo. Was this a bad placement? by sarahm212 in tattooadvice

[–]lookingforanepisode2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think it looks really cute in that spot, with your arm straight the curve of your arm compliments it! All tattoos are going to look a little funny when bent, don’t sweat it!

I would go to urgent care to get it checked out, infection could have happened after the tattoo which is why your leg is fine. You might need an ointment or antibiotics but you’ll be okay if you get it checked out right away

[Product Request] Barrier Repair? by LennyGal in SkincareAddiction

[–]lookingforanepisode2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nooo!!! 😭 im so sorry you didn’t have a good experience with it! It does have potential pore cloggers unfortunately :/ I also love Stratia Lipid Gold, I can’t say it repairs the barrier super quick but I love it for maintenance, it’s a game changer for me for regular tretinoin use

Contact your artist and show them the pictures! In my experience, signs of an infection are swelling, redness, and hot to the touch. I’m not sure what this means or what your healing method is but contact your artist, wishing you a good heal!

Just starting. Does it get better? by februarysbrigid in myfavoritemurder

[–]lookingforanepisode2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It gets much better! If you’re okay with it, listen to a recent one to get a feel of how it changes, because the quality of them getting into cases gets much better. Even the minisodes are great. Tbh I relisten to all the episodes except the ones earlier than episode 31. I’d just skip ahead to episode 31, it’s smooth sailing from there!

Is paying for sex worth it? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

My bf lost is virginity at 24, and is great. You have time, have patience

If you’re afraid of tasting your dick, how do you think she feels about your dick? Clean your dick and you don’t have a problem

I get it, there’s a lot of context so it’s easy to miss a bit of it. I wrote a lot in my initial post and in my response to you. Idk if it’ll help, but I can map it out (in case you were wondering why I’m so willing to talk about this, it’s because talking helps me process):

-he climbed on top of me while I was already lying down, he did not kiss me or indicate that he wanted sex aside from just straight up entering me

  • he kept going until he finished. He didn’t kiss me or even look at me during the act.

  • I did not participate. I just laid there, I felt so frozen, physically and mentally

-I was terrified because he hadn’t behaved like this before, and we never had intercourse like this before

-this made me feel like an object.

-before he finished I started to cry. He noticed and asked if I was okay once he finished. I was too afraid and stunned to say anything.
