We're both seniors and have a film class together. I'd say she's a 10 but I'm not that attractive. I'm a lightskinned Latino with short brown hair and eyes and I'm 6'2 but skinny I look like a white 12 year old (babyface). But I sat in between her and my friend for a class discussion and he kept telling stories about me which had her laughing a lot & I'd ask for her opinions on why she didn't like this film or that camera angle. She's a white girl btw. The stories didn't make me seem dumb just innocent and mischievous I have a lot of shenanigans but never get in trouble despite how far they go

I turned 16 a couple months ago and my mom always treats me like I'm supposed to act like I'm 25 or something I love Disney, and she gets mad at me and tells me that it's only for little kids but wtf I still see myself as a kid. And I watch kids shows and movies because I enjoy them and I don't see anything wrong with it. I also collect toys (miniature figurines) just because I simply enjoy to and I love to have that inner child in me. I know I have responsibilities at my age, and I do take care of them but still. Idk if I'm just afraid to grow up or what

Every time I look up websites about child abuse everything is about sexual abuse. I survived severe physical abuse. To me, it is worse then most sexual abuse scenarios that I could imagine. Imagine things like having a fork shoved down your throat, broken bones fixed with screws, crooked malformed vertebra, losing an eye, being handcuffed to a water heater for days at a time or being burned with an iron or a cigarette. How about having your hand put into a stove burner and your skin is gone, your bones are sticking out. I would have rather been fondled. But where is our story? Where is our support? Even at child abuse survivor groups it's always about sexual abuse. Are there any groups that exclude sexual abuse survivors? I have become sooo apathetic to sexual abuse survivors. Many of them feel that sex abuse is much worse than physical abuse. Many sex abuse survivors want to diminsh the pain that non-sexual abuse victims endure.

I broke up with my ex girlfriend after she decided to move out of my room. Then she ran into some legal trouble. Domestic voilence (her ex) and lost custody of her child. She wanted to get back together but she has a terrible attitude. So I told her from now on she has to pay half of the rent. But I let her pay what we agreed to at first before the break up 300 dollars. She gold me a day ago she would have to wait till she got her taxes back. I don t want to be late on my rent cause I never am but I really don t want to pay her share of it, cause some how this will enable her to think if something happens I will cover her. Should I pay her half of the rent and just wait till she pays me. Or just not pay it, have her pay the late fee and so on. I m not sure when she will get her taxes back i did them electronically for her on the 14 feb. I had to force her to do that. Hey side of the rent is 300. The rent actually is 873 a month and that doesn't include electric, cable, or water I really never asked who problem it was. I never said it was the land lord problem. You guys are losing track of the question it was should i pay her half of the rent yes or no, trying to place blame on me is nice but I pay my rent on time. And nobody is saying it falls on the land lord

I have a scar on my forehead because I fainted the first time I saw the guy I liked (I was teenager and I didnt eat that morning) so I fainted in his office (he was an office clerk), when I opened my eyes I saw him , I blushed and he basically took care of me and put an handkerchief on my forehead and stayed like that until my parents came (my dad also shouted at him). After many years I found him, we are friends and we are dating (hoping it will become smth more) and he basically kissed me on my forehead and said: you are always the same girl I knew, the same I met that day... and I am super happy that I have the most gorgeous and kind guy in my life, the one that I have always loved since I was a kid... he kissed my scar!

My mom is always saying how she hates her life because of me when I don't do anything. She be banging on the walls and the table when she's mad. She said she wish she never had me and wish people didn't know I was her daughter. She's always verbally mean to me and I actually was gonna do suicide because I couldn't handle it anymore. I finally talked to her about it and she said "go ahead I don't care". I thought she was gonna feel bad but I was wrong. I try to ignore or now but I can't since we live in the same house. I feel even worse when I see my friends and their moms talking and laughing having a good time and I'll never be able to do that. I barely have any friends cause my mom ends up cussing them out for no reason so they can't come over and I can't go over their house, so I only see them in school and you can't really build a friendship in that so I feel lonely at school and while I'm at home and I'm tired of it. I'm gonna be 18 in about 9 months but what can I do before then? I have sisters but all of them are always talking about my weight even tho I'm not that big so it feels like anywhere I go I'll never be happy or feel welcomed. What can I do? Am I able to get emancipated and live in my own even though I'm 17?

I'm 48 years old, married, and the mother of three children. My husband works mostly abroad, and I have been a stay-at-home mom ever since my son was born. I exercise three times a week, and last year managed to get back to my high-school weight. I love going out and seeing live bands with my girlfriends, and at one of them I met this kid, who just entered his late twenties a few months ago. He is extremely handsome, tall, long Lt. Brown hair, trimmed beard, blue eyes, muscular, and has a heart of gold. We've known each other for a couple of years. Normally him and I dance all night together at these shows. One night during a slow dance, he held me real close, and it felt so good. I felt warm and safe in his arms. And we've also gone hiking, swimming and alike, and always have a good time. On one of these hikes, I mentioned some problems my son and I have been having and how it hurt me. He quietly listened, and then what he said helped put everything in perspective, and having applied what he told me, my son and I are getting along much better. Because he is a handsome man, he gets a lot of attention from women. He doesn't seek it out I've noticed, he's just having fun being himself, and they approach him most of the time. Thing is it's starting to bother me. I don't like seeing them draping themselves all over him. One chick started trying to grind on him on the dance floor, and I hated it. I don't know why I'm feeling that way, or why he makes me feel so good?

I'm 6'3 tall and I really do feel extremely vulnerable and little when I cuddle with my fiancée. She's shorter than me and extremely sweet and lovely, she looks like a child sometimes and she's just so tender. Sometimes we sleep together and I put my head on her chest and I kiss her on her heart and caress her ribcage. When I rest on her like that I feel loved and relieved but also vulnerable and weak. Why does this happen to me? It makes me feel like I want to be loved and cuddled by her and and becoming dependent on her and her love.

This is more common than I think but up to an extant. I mean I've never even kissed someone so I've definitely still got my v card (not that I'm complaining about that) but it's not like I don't try. Although I rarely get to know someone I'm attracted to I manage to get the number but when I just ask a generic question to start up a convo over text like how's the new year or whatever just being nice I get ghosted on. Females are into more than looks and while I'm no Christian Bale I'm not ugly like I'm not atrocious I'm just not capable of growing a beard Im a lightskinned Latino look like a white boy im multilingual spiritual intellectual something not many people give me credit for I have a babyface. But I'm tall, skinny which is a downside because when I worked out I had females out of my league just saying hi for no reason even though we were already near each other for a while. But I'm finishing high school and I don't really have a family or support system which can be depressing but I fear I'm gonna die alone because I already know I'm gonna die young I've just always had that feeling. I'm 18 btw

when it strangles you and kills you inside? when it makes you feel like you're surrounded by death and oblivion? im female i feel like men use us and everything beautiful to try and possess it own it, use it and throw it away to tear it all to shreds and then deny they have access to self-awareness to prevent this kind of thing from happening. nature from being destroyed for example i don't understand why protecting nature self-awareness putting out what you expect are suicide and so i just look at love as being used in this collossal scale

I have always had a large friend group my entire life; my friends all call me "popular" (however I shy away from that term). Anyways, I'm a freshman in highschool now and a lot of upperclassmen guys have started talking to me. Should I still talk to them? I also play soccer and lacrosse and have found that the upperclassmen constantly talk badly about the freshman. I can't help but be overly-paranoid that all upperclassmen hate me! Seeing that are a little over half of the year is over, what can I do at this point in time to change my reputation? I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm hated, and I always am sure to be nice to everyone, but what specifically should I do? Any tips on being a freshman girl are welcome!
