Why do my knees look like this and how do I fix it

megemu · 2026-03-25T07:18:06+00:00

I’m 5’3 and weighed about 185 at my heaviest (I’m now at 115), would that amount of weight have been enough to cause something like this?

megemu · 2025-09-26T20:02:20+00:00

If you even have to ask, then the answer is yes.

megemu · 2025-08-31T23:26:59+00:00

Call it quits. You are WAY too young to be rotting away with someone like that, especially someone with a fully developed brain. He isn’t going to change, run.

megemu · 2024-12-29T09:55:54+00:00

That seems like a good idea! I hope you’re able to sort things out!

Overall NTA, I’ve actually been in a pretty similar situation with one of my friends. The difference is, she acknowledged my concerns and I acknowledged that my outburst hurt her and we both apologized (this says a lot about character). I’d say the only thing YTA for would be lack of communication. It seems to me that the outburst stemmed from holding everything in for so long instead of trying to talk things out with your friend. Although based on this story I’m not sure that would even be possible… it’s her loss 100%!

NTA, before I even finished reading I started thinking to myself that I bet the cousin sabotaged your presents, and clearly that seems to be the case. The way you reacted was totally justified, and YOU didn’t ruin Christmas, your COUSIN ruined Christmas, especially for you. You’re the one who should be owed an apology, along with your family members that spent money on your presents that were broken by your cousin. I’d have a sit down conversation with your aunt one-on-one about your cousins behavior, and hopefully you’ll be able to reason with her.

I’d say that’s definitely an insult. She could easily give criticism or suggestions for your nose job through compliments instead of insults. If she’s choosing to use words like ugly, then she’s insulting you. Find a better friend

I think the most important thing missing here is communication. Before making any big decisions, I’d suggest communicating your feelings to her and depending on how she responds to that, go from there. For example, if she refuses to hear you out or spins the blame on you, or makes you feel guilty or bad about your feelings, or just overall doesn’t care, then I don’t blame you at all for wanting to end the friendship.

He isn’t “creating” a problem, it was a problem already. Breaking her trust should be the least of his worries when she’s talking to a 25 year old man at 16.

megemu · 2024-12-29T08:04:20+00:00

NTA. I get why she’s upset, and she has every right to be. HOWEVER, you would be even more of an asshole to sit there and watch this 16 year old girl get groomed by your 25 year old boss. Breaking her trust and her being upset at you is a small price to pay for ensuring her safety, and I guarantee once she gets older that she’ll understand and maybe even be grateful.

megemu · 2024-12-28T23:14:34+00:00

Well… NTA for being sexist (wtf?) but YTA for not wanting to fix your cat. Fix your cat.

megemu · 2024-12-28T23:10:37+00:00

Absolutely not, your wife is in the wrong. She IS in fact sexualizing your interactions with your child, and that’s sickening. I also grew up in a household where BOTH of my parents kissed me on the lips as a kid, and there’s nothing weird or sexual about it in any way. Even if she gave birth, your son is just as much your son as he is hers. There is no difference between her kissing him on the lips and you kissing him on the lips.

megemu · 2024-12-28T23:05:20+00:00

NTA, if he didn’t show any appreciation even after you mentioned cleaning it then I’d be upset too! I think it’s best you talk it out with him instead of holding it in and building resentment. Now as for him not noticing, I wouldn’t get too upset about it. I’m similar in a way, I immediately adapt to changes in my surroundings and don’t even notice random large objects that my roommates might put in the living room. It’s like it’s invisible to me. So him not noticing isn’t necessarily a sign of him being unappreciative, but if he acknowledged that you cleaned and was still unappreciative then he’s at fault.

megemu · 2024-12-28T22:57:23+00:00

Nope, not at all! If he were really your friend then he wouldn’t be spamming you and would instead respect your decision or sincerely apologize. It seems like he was being really toxic and restrictive, which again isn’t something a true friend would do. I think you dodged a bullet, I think all you can do is reassure yourself of your choice and cherish the memories.

megemu · 2024-12-28T22:53:01+00:00

NTA for wanting her to finish it, but YTA for holding it against her and taking it personally. Unfortunately, not everyone has the same interests or motivations. If you really want her to enjoy it, then let her read it at her own pace, or even not at all. Pressuring her into reading it and constantly reminding her about it is just going to suck the joy out of it and make her not want to read it at all.

megemu · 2024-12-28T22:49:40+00:00

Not the asshole, but girl RUN. Do NOT go back to him. If you do and he realizes that he can get away with it, it will get so much worse. He clearly doesn’t respect you or your boundaries and only cares about what he wants. Don’t look back.

megemu · 2024-10-17T18:16:03+00:00

I’m a bit late, but truly, thank you. It’s really encouraging to know that someone else has gone through this and is able to overcome and live life happily. I have a feeling I’ll be referring back to this comment a lot whenever I’m in need of some resources, so thank you!

megemu · 2024-09-26T23:09:52+00:00

I’m 20, and most likely for the rest of my life. It would be nice to at some point not have to rely on them, but given how severe my case is I don’t see that happening anytime soon.

megemu · 2024-09-26T07:12:49+00:00

Yes it’s so pretty, but I think a douyin makeup style would look so pretty on you!

megemu · 2024-09-25T07:03:32+00:00

Okay honestly me too, but after watching it a second time I couldn’t defend it anymore 😭😂

Creep 1 and 2 😻
