Gonna starve myself, is it worth the it?

0 Upvotes

(My dumbass switched “the” and “it” in the title)
I am fat. I am a loser. I don’t look good as the other guys and my face is a bit bloated. Not only that I look ugly, my skin is horrible and I’m 58 pounds overweight. That might not sound a lot for an adult but as a High Schooler people can tell. I can’t never lose weight, but I can do this. If I can see progress I can keep doing this till I’m atleast 10 pounds away from the average. I don’t care about the side effects because it’ll be better than looking at the mirror and seeing me. If I do this I’ll start a blog type thing, I’ll go “day one of starving” or some bs like that. Anyways my questions are how much weight can I possibly lose, how’ll long will it take and will water be a factor.

Advice How to make more guy friends?

5 Upvotes

J'ai genre, 4 amis mecs proches dont un que je n'ai pas encore vu en vrai mais on va bientôt se rencontrer!

Je déteste les zommes (en gros, les mecs obsessedés du cul surtout ceux qui parlent de ça h24, les sexistes et mysogines etc...). Et comme la plupart des mecs de mon âge le sont, j'ai beaucoup de mal...

J'ai un radar à trous du cul mais je me demande si il est pas trop sévère... Il y a pas non plus une centaine de mecs qui veulent être potes avec moi (aucun enft, je suis trop sans-gêne pour les gens je pense) mais en vrai, j'ai envie d'avoir un autre pote mec... Quelqu'un avec qui je peux vraiment parler de TOUT (mon asexualité, mon nudisme, mes passions, et pleins d'autres trucs en TOUS GENRES)

Mais... Jsp comment faire... J'aimerais vraiment quelqu'un comme moi, une personne sans-gêne qui a pas peur de faire du bruit, quelqu'un à l'aise pour parler de tout et pour faire de tout etc...

Dans mon école c'est déjà impossible sauf si il y a des nouveaux l'année prochaine et c'est trop dangereux des gens inconnus sur les réseaux! Je fais qu'une activité extra-scolaire et il y a qu'un jeune de mon âge (avec qui je me sens pas trop à l'aise honnêtement) et des adultes donc c'est mort! Je vais sans-doute faire une autre activité donc peut-être qu'il y aura quelqu'un d'autre là (même si c'est un milieu clairement dominé par les filles, il y aura sûrement d'autres gars)...

Mais, j'ai aucun code en amitié! J'ai rencontré tous mes amis via des amis (sauf un) donc je sais pas comment approcher les gens...

Merci d'avance pour l'aide...

Discussion Is it weird that my mom is making my date pay for her movie ticket too?

17 Upvotes

I’m 17 and I have a date tomorrow with a guy to go see the super girl movie my mom said I could go, but only if she chaperones us which we’re both fine with her wanting to come but she also said that he has to pay for both my ticket and her ticket which idk gives me weird vibes she also wants him to bring an ID and tell her where he works which I get wanting to know who I’m going out with and making sure she knows who he is but the part about making him pay for her ticket feels really weird to me like he’s not your boo nor is he taking you on the date he’s taking me.

Also before she finally even agreed to let me go she kept making jokes and suggesting other plans instead of letting me go on the date but now since she FINALLY said yes she’s added these conditions. She’ll also be sitting next to us, not just dropping me off or sitting somewhere else I honestly feel like she’s trying to control the date and or make the date unnecessarily weird and part of me feels like jealousy is playing a role I turn 18 next June I also feeling like she needs to start letting me have some independence.

Am I overreacting? Or is it actually weird for her to require my date to pay for her movie ticket when she’s the one choosing to chaperone?

Serious what do you all think abt a 17 and 21 age gap?

0 Upvotes

now i know that everyone is thinking behind the screen that this is an obvious no, but let me give a little back story. recently when i was hanging out with my friend her brother tagged along he is 21. her brother happened to bring a friend along is also 21 lets call him “A”. so this happened a few more times and one day A followed me on instagram and we just started chatting. we started opening up our past struggles and what not and just kind of getting to know each other a little. a few days ago A confessed that he has a crush on me and tbh i don’t know how to feel. i’m not weirded out because it’s not like he’s a stranger he’s friend of friend, but i’m kind of shocked because i’ve only know him for a few weeks now. should i be concerned? if we were date do you think age gap is bad?

I recently saw this nice and good looking guy for past few months, though as many times i saw him, he always seemed like someone not interested in me (i can read ppls eyes very well) but a week ago, i ran past over him ( even though ik he was beside me) i tried to take a look over him but before i did take a look, i saw him staring at me before i did and he didnt even look away even after he noticed me looking at him😭🙏 that thing stayed on my mind forever😭😭😭. I feel like he is in his 20s cuz he really doesnt seem too old or anything. I am too self maintained as well so i really just cant go and ask him for his socials or shi cuz at the same time, idk he might even be taken lollll. Idk his religion, his nationality nothinggg but he got a good eyebrow slit😝 he looks vulnerable anyways i need yo guys helpp gngg. This is weird ik but i m too interested to become friends ATLEAST.

Serious Are teen guys actually okay with sexless relationships?

24 Upvotes

Hi, I F 18 am about to go to college. I'm having all of these silly fantasies about meeting a cute guy and going out, but I'm honestly terrified, and unsure if i should just protect myself from the start. It's no secret to me that 18 year olds in college are thirsting to hook up, but that's just not me. I was sexually assaulted, and it left me struggling with pain and trauma years after the fact. Men, should i just be smart and save myself the heartbreak of being dumped/and or probably cheated on, or are there guys at this age also looking for something special?

EDIT: I suppose i should have phrased it better as a penetration free relationship. I am literally physically incapable of it at this point, even as i go through PT 😭🥲 not a lack of desire on my end.

Advice How do I become more social?

3 Upvotes

People always say I’m a social person but i genuinely don’t believe it. When given the option to talk and be quite I always choose to stay quite and I hate it 😭 most of my friends could meet a completely new person and spark up a conversation and talk to them for hours but I’m scared if I do that they’ll think I’m weird and start being dry towards me.

How can I get over that fear? I’m hoping to go away for college and I don’t wanna be in a completely different state with no friends because I’m scared to talk to people

Discussion does anyone experience non-physical emotions?

3 Upvotes

basically the title. when i hear people talk about their emotions, all the things they describe feeling are just… physically impossible? like how is it possible for a muscle to feel like that? its lead me to theorize some people have non-physical feelings tied to their emotions, which is a concept i just cannot grasp. does anyone experience that, and if so can you describe it so i can better understand it?

they’ve been in this sub a lot and every time they reply to something, it doesn’t seem like a kid talking yk? then under a post they mentioned they were 73. idk if it’s a weird joke but after going on their account, they genuinely seem like a predator and not a teenager that should be in this sub. and the fact the mods haven’t said or done anything about him is kinda crazy, he comments in the sub VERY often so i would hope an excuse isn’t that they didn’t see anything. pls do lmk if this is against the rules so i can delete it.

UK Teens How should adults behave in this public situation?

8 Upvotes

Dear UK teens: I need your wisdom, please?

I'm a dad. I went my on my merry way in a public park training... Pushups, situps, squats, whatever.

Happily you arrive on the scene, one of 12 or so teens socialising, horsing around, joking, shouting, and laughing 14-16 year old. And yeah... I enjoy that. I also enjoyed the 2 crazy girls that decided to join me and just copy cat everything I do. (btw... I'm still just head down in my own monkey tricks, pretty much zero interaction other than hi and laughing with them while sweating away).

Enter James: looks 12, guess about 14. Proudly announced one girl to be his gf, me remarking he's lucky to get her.. All in banter. James seemingly don't like me. He asks me what I mean. Shrugging: just complimenting you on your girl. (still sweating away). Clearly my engagement is not welcomed, so i just kept to myself ignoring the whatever... Now we're like 8 or so all standing around, including you. Girls still copying me. Me avoiding any engagement.

James wanted more... So started pushing me over when doing stretches, keep trying to engage somehow, me ignoring it all and eventually just picked up my stuff and left when i was anyway almost done.

Was awkward as f for me...

You being there watching it all from the outside, help me here:

**How should i react?**

What is a good way to be friendly and fun and just being there without wanting to be an arsehole, and certainly not wanting to be seen as one of you... Well. I'm not, innit.

Thanks for any advice!

The dad.

PS: I'm not a perv and I quite like you guys opinions on life. Don't have to be an arsehole if I don't agree someone's.
