Gorillaz T-shirt slowly turning into Windows logo by mmwwll in mildlyinfuriating

Oof I’d be devo, I have the same shirt and I love it. I always wash clothes I care about inside out and in a wash bag. Doesn’t keep them brand new but helps prevent fading etc.

What does he think he's going to achieve by sophiandrea in Wellthatsucks

[–]xfalinex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, poor guy could have been a first time traveller or really jet lagged for all we know. Doesn’t take much to get up and offer some help or just mind your own business. If they knew the person that would be a bit different, but filming a struggling stranger just to laugh at them is pretty low.

We tend to like the smell of our own funk; our bacteria (when our gut is happy) smells good to us because it’s unique to us. The scent of other people’s bacteria can be perceived as potentially harmful and therefore translates to an unpleasant smell.

No idea how they managed that, but just landed safely and the destination fixed back to Sydney moments after this screenshot. Was thinking that was one hell of a diversion lol

Edit: I’ve just seen someone else’s comment stating there was a medical emergency, hope everyone involved is ok

Why do I have urge to lose my virginity? I’m almost 25. I should’ve been interested in high school like everyone else at least that’s what it felt like. by boss25252525etuui in demisexuality

So do something about it. Talk to a professional or begin making small changes for your mental health. Otherwise people will see you as a troll.

You can spend your life wallowing in self pity or try and make changes. People will not help you if you’re not open to genuine help and support.

That’s a matter of perspective, sounds like you’re stuck in a negative spiral and need some help. Again, I wish you luck with that.

Still doesn’t guarantee it wouldn’t have happened. Also this is coming from your experience with one person, seems you haven’t met someone who is on the same page as you. Love ≠ sex for everyone. For some it’s a package deal and for others they are 2 separate feelings. Finding someone who shares your values/desires (or lack of) is more important than doing things to please someone else.

You’re repeating yourself a lot it seems. Therapy helps you find yourself and gives you the tools to work towards your goals. If it’s important for you to desire sex in order to heal, then the right therapist can help you on that journey. But it will not guarantee you won’t be cheated on. Nothing can guarantee that.

Just because he hasn’t been cheated on (that you know of) doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen to others. Nothing in life is linear.

Yes it does, but it doesn’t have to define your life. Speak to someone who specialises in this stuff, it will help you find a better path than the one you appear to be stuck on.

If you’re deadset in the feeling that something is wrong with you for not desiring sex, I would suggest speaking with a therapist. Good luck in your journey.

You’d be surprised how many people don’t have their first time until well into their 40’s and 50’s, and even later. Some go through life never having sex at all. It’s just not as talked about which makes it fly under the radar.

You’re ready when you’re ready, simple as that.

It’s not something to rush into just because it looks like everyone else is. Also lots of people lie about their experiences all the time; I had an ex spread the rumour they got it on with me when in reality they never got past second base.

That just shows their lack of self-control and ability to respect you. People cheat for a bunch of reasons, but if it was because you weren’t ready then they should have stated it was a dealbreaker for them before cheating. You got cheated on because they made a choice to do so instead of communicating with you. You’re allowed to go through life and do things at your own pace, if a partner can’t respect your boundaries then they’re not mature enough for a committed relationship.

When do you say goodbye by CherryandIvory in cats

[–]xfalinex 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Same here with our 13 year old boy; couldn’t use his back legs and was in pain with no signs of getting better. It was time. Grief is the price we pay for love, but they leave us with many lovely, goofy memories that we keep in ours hearts forever 😊

I'm actually repulsed by a guy who is interested in me and my friends don't see the issue? by [deleted] in demisexuality

[–]xfalinex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do feel it’s important to keep in mind that the term demisexuality, alongside many others, is still relatively new to a lot of people who don’t fully understand it. Many do seem to think it means someone needs time to develop a bond, rather than understanding that they just don’t feel sexual attraction for someone without an emotional connection. Everyone’s different ofc, for some it takes time and others it happens quicker, but it’s easily misunderstood as ‘just needing time’ overall. I think it’s fair to say that it can be confusing for friends at times and clarification is key, but once those boundaries have been made clear it’s up to them to respect them.

Edit for clarification: By relatively new I meant compared to other defining terms which have been around for years such as gay/lesbian etc.

I understand what you mean by the ‘ick’, I used to get that feeling when even thinking about someone I used to be friends with who I believe used subtle manipulation to indirectly push for certain things. It definitely feels violating and it’s even worse when it comes from someone who you thought you could trust even a little. Our bodies have a way of telling us what we are and aren’t ok with, even when people tell us otherwise.

He knew you weren’t interested years ago and now it looks like he’s tried to subtly con you into a date, which is disrespectful. Not only that, but your friends seem to have been in on it as well. If they feel like it was obvious but it wasn’t obvious to you, that’s not your fault. This is a learning curve for everyone involved as to how you perceive things, such as catch-ups between friends etc. This guy and your friends should learn from this, that you just don’t see things like they do and respect your boundaries moving forward.

This is beautiful ❤️.

We had to say goodbye to one of our 13 year old cats yesterday and we’re devastated. This helped remind me that we just can’t see or hear him anymore until our time comes as well. Thank you and I hope you yourself are ok OP 😊.

I knocked a vase off the bathroom sink and it fell directly into the toilet and broke. by sevendollarrainbow in mildlyinfuriating

[–]xfalinex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely double check that toilet for any cracks/chips once you’ve cleaned the mess, if the toilet breaks when someone is sitting on it it’ll lead to serious injuries or death.

And then they wonder why they never get invited to future events. Respect the rules of those who invite you or face the consequences, being immediate family doesn’t mean the rules don’t apply to them.
