Hey so, they see you as a friend. Not as a sexual or romantic partner. They don't have that connection with you. You can't just manifest romantic feels my guy. 

You never once bring up what you're looking for in a potential partner. You never once say if you even like your women friends, or what about them you enjoy or find compelling. 

You're literally just deciding proximity must mean these women should fuck you because you're there and so are they.

Do them a favor and stop being friends with these women because you're not being honest about your interactions with them. 

Just an excitable boy I guess right 

Funny enough, when I tell my doctor about my anxiety and white coat syndrome because I tend to work myself into "concerning" heart rates and blood pressure when I'm getting my vitals taken, they never believe me about the anxiety either. 

I'll be like, hey doc. If you look at my chart you'll see the multi year documentation for the anxiety. Your gunna take my vitals and then you're going to say "omg that's concerning, everything is worryingly high, do you feel faint?!"

And then I'm going to panic more and those readings will get higher. 

If we could skip you panicking over me panicking and just take my bp again at the end of the appointment you'll see things in a more normal range. 

My heart rate at rest averages at 70 and my blood pressure is normal too. 

Then they proceed to ignore me, freak out, then I freak out and it's a really fun appointment while I try and convince my doctor it really is JUST MY ANXIETY. 

You honestly can't win for losing. Everything is anxiety, until it IS anxiety, and then it's a cardiac event sigh

Last time I saw a doctor it was because I had shingles. I knew it was shingles because my husband got it in his mid 20s. I was...36? When I got it. 

I noticed the tingle first then noticed the beginning of the blisters, clocked what it was and immediately went to the Dr who proceeded to tell me I was too young for the shingles. 

I told her my husband got them when we were in our 20s. She dismissed me again that it was unlikely. 

I told her I was in excruciating pain and the skin eruptions were following the exact criteria of shingles (perfectly halfway around my hips, stopping at my belly button and middle of my back. I told her it was textbook. 

She still poo poo'd me, soni dropped my pants in the exam room and asked her to look at it and give me her best opinion then (before that she said she didn't need to see it because it was definitely not shingles and probably contact dermititis -_-)

Surprise, it was fucking shingles!

It's like they stretched her face and made it long?  Mouth is like too low or something with a very long nose?  

I hope this causes a Streissand effect for him. 

Lol. Fuck. How you even jokingly asking 

Like. Wtf even anymore 

My husband says this to me so often 😭. I feel bad but also, the fact that I spent my 20s trying aggressively to stay as close to 110lbs as possible and then punished myself for "giving up and letting myself go" when I went up to a size 5 (🫣) and now that I'm almost 40 and wearing a 10/12.....ugh. It's a hard habit to kick. Teenage years are formative and my brain still likes to default into "pinch an inch, grab a slab" mentality. It's like I never Left the mean girls in the highschool girls bathroom 😮‍💨

😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

I remember OBSESSING over my thighs in the full length mirror in my bathroom. I was low key afraid to sit down in front of people because my thighs would spread 🫠

Round face and boobs and hips. 

Didn't matter that I was 100lbs if that, round head, butt and boob= chubby back then and ENDLESS hassling about inappropriate clothing (every skirt was "too short" and every shirt was "too tight" or "too low cut'. I wore the same uniform as everyone else with a sports bra and kept getting treated like I was walking around in a pushup padded wonderbra with my ass hanging out....oh to be 15 again 🙄)

Dog eat dog* Can't win for losing *  Women (plural, woman is singular). I80, not 360 (180 is the opposite direction, 360 is a full circle where you end exactly where you started.. sheesh 

THIS is exactly why I hate discord and similar. People always use it too "coordinate" and you can never find information because it's buried in bullshit

Nice Job being a bitch

Also. It sure sounds like YOU care about her Japanese stuff. If you didn't, you'd have left her be. 

People come into the office and talk about their hobbies, their kids etc. God forbid someone have some joy. Hope she reports you to HR

What's the pill du jour for trumps white House ya think? They all need to be on something 

What kills me is that the base will look at this woman and be like "Fuck yes. This person? Trustworthy. I'm going to listen to whatever she says. What a fine conservative example of what a woman should be. Wow wow wow. What a lady!"

Meanwhile a normal ass looking person who happens to have a nose piercing is a woke libruuul orc troll who they hate on sight because they "look weird".

Took me years to come to terms that my first time was coercion bordering on assault (saying "I'm uncomfortable. I don't want to do it this way can we stop doing this?" While he keeps going insisting I'll like it better in a minute 🫩)

Because I eventually agreed and just stopped talking I told myself I consented and that it was my fault , not his, for my experience for a really long time. 

Ahh. The Charlie Kirk collateral damage argument 

"Go birds dickhead" is not an insult here

No. It's giving 2005 lara croft in Birkenstocks.

You don't need to blow a load of cash, but go out and get a body con dress. It's vegas, you can have an excuse to go glam with it. 

My biggest worry here is that this wasn't a snap to push you away from a high prize item. 

I also have a former stray with HEAVY resource guarding issues. We have to be very mindful of his reasonable limits and making sure we try to be proactive in preventing situations where he might get something he would want to guard. However, at his worst it's a warning growl and a quick snap to push you out of his space. He has never pursued and continued to engage. 

I've known two dogs that have taken it to that level, and both were in hard core training with a person that specialized in red zone aggression and both dogs ultimately needed to be BE unfortunately. Training can only manage triggers. And management WILL fail at some point. The question is then - what happens when management fails? Is the result of failed management something you can risk? Or is it a sustained attack? 

It got to the point where the life of the humans in the house with the specialist trainer, as well as the dogs life became so restrictive that it was untenable... either everyone was constantly on high alert around making sure the dog was managed safely, or someone slipped up accidentally and became seriously injured by the dog. It was like living in a maximum security prison because when/if management failed it meant the potential death of other smaller pets and serious hospital level harm to adults in the house. 

I realize that reaching into his crate for a high prize item was a bad move (and I see that you acknowledge that it wasn't something you should have done) but the fact that he kept coming at you until you physically blocked him from making contact is really scary, that's not a normal response.  

Your life with this dog may require very regimented interactions and you need to be honest if you're able to safely keep the cats away at all times, you also need to be realistic for your own well being. You've received multiple serious bites, that's not a small deal. It's now a zero sum game if you fail to manage triggers going forward. Is that a fair way for any of you to live?
