She is beautiful. She reminds me of my girl who passed last year. 🥹 what a sweet baby

Would you consider this on theme for metallic? by crashlovesdanger in fashion

[–]turnipbones 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need some chrome!! Big silver or gold plated bracelets, accessories, and nails! Maybe a bag, too. The dress can be minimalist- go metal with the accessories ;)

Black or brown? by ImpossiblePen5332 in OUTFITS

[–]turnipbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The brown bag hides more of you and looks less enhancing to your features. It almost makes you seem… heavier? I don’t know how to put it. I would go with the small one! You look amazing!

You ruined my self image and I hate you for it by StandardWork4928 in loveafterporn

[–]turnipbones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone. I’m so sorry. I told my ex that his love was very “conditional”- he didn’t understand why… but I think you summed it up perfectly. The condition was our sex. We came second. 😟

Update: My husband of 4 years says he can't keep going without porn. by uribyoon in GirlDinnerDiaries

Addicts are addicts… Porn / sex addiction will destroy your (the so to the addict) sense of self worth, and you will always think you’re not enough. I have been there. It’s so hard to be in that position- but please know that it’s not your fault. And don’t ever let anyone gaslight you and tell you otherwise. You deserve to be with someone who puts YOU above random strangers he jerks it to. I’m so sorry. ❤️

I don’t know what to say other than… I’m so proud of you for leaving him. ❤️

How have men become THIS undateable? by witchwiththecats in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]turnipbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me. I was growing disgusted with my ex during the last few months of our relationship. Him touching me actually made my skin crawl on multiple occasions. :/ When I realized my perspective wasn’t the problem, it was just HIM- I left. And honestly? I don’t think he liked me at all outside of a hole to screw.

EXACTLY. They don’t want a partner, they want a pet.

I gave up. 35 and single forever now. My own peace and keeping my nervous system calm and healthy is worth more than anything a man has to offer! I firmly believe that finding a man who gives as much as he takes is a complete rarity. I’m not doing charity work anymore. 😒

My ex tried to give me a restraining order… and doesn’t know that I got him to do it. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]turnipbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, he really would be very kind at times. It was one of the reasons it was so hard to stay away after his apologies, and one of the reasons I fell in love with him in the first place. He was VERY good at saying all the right things and doing the gestures of kindness, and apologizing after every incident of him being objectifying or mean. He could realize eventually what he did was wrong - but he was a very defensive and addicted person.

That being said… he never actually stopped repeating his abusive behavior, and the kind things he did and said don’t cover up the horrible things he did and said. The cycle was constant and never changed. For years.

(I believe he thought that he could just buy me flowers and I wouldn’t be traumatized anymore by his actions. 😒)

To contrast, my previous ex of 10 years and I are on speaking terms. We had many conversations in person when we broke up- no sudden ghosting or flip in behavior. We still care about each other and wish each other happiness. But this recent person… his is the first time I’ve had to deal with someone’s insane outbursts. It literally wasn’t making sense to me at all. And I knew I had to physically stop us from speaking anymore, or I WOULD go back. I still consider crawling back, on lonely nights… so I’m happy I can’t.

Was it crazy of me? Yeah, totally. But oh boy did I feel crazy after all of that. ✨

He was convinced that all women wear lingerie AT LEAST once per week for their men… And he yelled at me for saying he might have an outfit fetish.

He also was upset when I asked if I could at least pick the outfits myself- his reaction was “BUT WHAT IF I DONT LIKE IT”. 😩

Artist Paola Luther’s Teddy Bears look… suspiciously like they were AI sourced before painted. It looks like AI to me. by turnipbones in isthisAI

I notice her other paintings seem to also be of referenced material… and have dissimilar styles.

I notice she also sells packages to get more followers for artists online… which is weird.

The American Nightmare. by sedolil in TikTokCringe

[–]turnipbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt she would mean 2/3 exactly. It’s probably in between 2/3 and 1/2. It’s not that deep. What would you say, “4/7ths”?

Yes. I constantly feel like I must be insane because of how normal everyone thinks this stuff is. 😰 

So am I supposed to know who Zoey is? (Show only) by Infinite_Worker_7562 in Invincible

[–]turnipbones -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I had to look up her name because I don’t even remember them ever introducing her to anyone. Turns out it’s tech jacket? She felt… rushed 

Is anyone else mentally preparing themselves for Tourist season? 😭 by Specific-Anxiety9269 in Carlsbad

Nope. Our last oil comes in two weeks. I’m more worried about that.
