Just goes to show you, I don't know how to take pictures!

I misgendered myself out loud playing Uno with the kids. I dead name myself in my head a lot. I, myself, am dealing with 37 years of conditioning. You are dealing with [your age here] of people calling you [dead name]. It's okay if you slip up. Hell, I still misgender my kids by accident and they've been out for 5 years. Hell, they misgender each other by accident. It happens. Just keep loving yourself.

Well, good luck on trying on clothes, and I wish your wallet a speedy recovery!

This is a wonderful step towards self positivity, and I applaud you!

I agree with others and will say find a hairstyle for you, or experiment! The only thing I know for sure i want for myself is I want to go blonde, but other than that, I'm not sure. So I'm just gonna keep it in a ponytail, grow it out, and when I have the fun money, go get my hair colored and nails done.

Good for you for doing for yourself! Keep it up! We are all rooting for you!

I promise, I'm not being condescending. I really am proud of you.

I'll be honest, I didn't even look at these. I looked the first time you posted a month ago and my opinion hasn't changed. Pretty sure none of our opinions have changed. Please. Seek help. This isn't healthy.

Hon, my point still stands. Every few days you come on here saying "I'm ugly" and we keep saying "No you aren't." Idk what answer you're looking for, but we can't give it to you. I suggest again, find a therapist, and if you have one, talk about your self-image issues.

Edit to add: if you don't like those pics, why are you looking at them? Put them away if they have good memories. Throw them if they don't. Or give them to someone who wants to look at them. Why do you keep torturing yourself by looking at pictures you hate? What penance are you paying to yourself with this self-flagellation? You have the power to delete the pictures you don't like. Why haven't you yet?

I'm gonna give you a little tough love: I think you need therapy.

Like, every week you put a post about how you don't think you're passing and you're ugly, and every week we all try to affirm you. You have to start loving yourself, and we can't help with that. You need professional counseling to find the root of your self-hate.

I get feeling ugly and unwanted. My wife left me a month ago, and, recently, I've been trying to find companionship. But, either people want sugar parents, or I get no f'n matches.

I think someone reported me on bumble for catfishing, and one of my pics was moderated, and I was FORCED to do a verification pic. And now, since my full face is on there, I've went from 150 matches to..... 0. Yes, it's a slap to the face. But girl, beauty comes from within, not without. If you keep not wanting to put in an effort and looking like shit because you DON'T put in effort, well, we can't help you. All these pretty faces get up, look in the mirror, tell themselves they are badass bitches who don't take shit from no one, put their makeup on, and face the day with a grimace and a smile. Cuz the world IS going to try to tell us we aren't real or we aren't good enough, but, goddammit, they're wrong!

No, not at all. Just sad cuz nostalgia is all. Cool he wants to travel and meet fans of him and the franchise, it's just.... Again, kinda feels like a bit of a travelling sideshow attraction is all. Maybe it would be better if he retired is my point of view. It would bother me to be reduced to what feels like a circus act or county fair attraction. "Come see the Bearded Lady, after that, get Charles Martinet's autograph!" Ya know?

Edit to add: at the same time, I do get that this is apparently Martinet and Nintendo wanting to continue to work together. Hell, maybe I should take my nostalgia glasses off. He gets to travel the world on Nintendo's dime, and get paid to do it. Probably not too bad of a retirement I guess.

It's just a shame he's been downgraded to what appears to be a sideshow piece. I mean, if he's happy doing it, more power to him. He's been Mario for, like, 20 years? Good luck to the next Mario. Those are some big overalls to fill.

I am happy you enjoy your meal plan, but don't yuck my yum

I'll keep your warning in mind. I genuinely didn't know there was a difference, but it does explicitly say swingers event, sooo...

Everyone there seemed respectful of people's space. There wasn't a large amount of groping or anything like that. Or they're easing me in lol. It's... fairly obvious I'm transgender if that's what some of your concerns are. Even in a darkly lit strip club. I would know, the walls were lined with mirrors I tried to avoid looking at. Unless you were worried about me being drugged, and only I handled my things, in my hands constantly really.

But, ya, I'll try to be on my guard a bit and not get too loosened up.

Did she think she spontaneously grew a uterus and ovaries, or did she not have sex ed when she was younger? I would assume it would be more common knowledge how menstrual cycles work.
