You get engaged to someone neurotic enough to micromanage her bathing to be without her makeup. This is a pretty bizarre "just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you" thing no. How could anyone predict that response?

My aforementioned depression ex also did the never-let-anyone-ever-ever-see-you-sans-makeup thing

She also made a habit of photoshopping her Facebook profile pictures to look ugly on purpose, because then if some hypothetical Facebook person thought her picture was ugly she could say it was on purpose

What I'm getting at is that the poster's fiance is handling her anxiety poorly, but if they break up because of it it's probably for the best for him too

I heard the story of a guy who changed his phone number so that he could pretend that this girl was, in fact, texting him, but not reaching him because he changed his number. Eventually he broke down and texted her from the new number, and then changed it again.

im not entirely sure this one isn't a troll

Friends of a friend[late 20s or early 30s F&M,just met them] have been nice enough to let me[21F] stay with them but they kind of weird me out. What can I do? I feel I'm being really judgy.

quote:

I lost my job, my boyfriend broke up with me and because of that I couldn't renew our lease so I was stuck without a place to go. A friend of mine told her friends and they offered me a room plus 3 meals a day for $100 a month. I found an overseas job that starts in March so I'm doing odd jobs till then.

Don't get me wrong I'm grateful but I think they're kind of weird. They live in an unincorporated suburb(pretty much a normal suburb but the county takes care of it instead of the city, less building/gardening restriction but smaller roads and no streetlights). They've turned they're back yard into a "food forest" there's tons of vegetables and fruit tree and berries and stuff.

The wife is always busy out there or in the kitchen, right now she's busy drying a bunch of food for winter, she also makes herbal teas which seems kind of unsafe to me
.
They both go to church on Sunday or sit and read the bible together if the weathers too bad. I grew up without religion and I don't know how to handle this.

What can I do to stop being so uncomfortable?

tl;dr: They're nice enough to let me stay for $100 a month until March but they're backyard is something called a food forest, the wife has a bunch of weird herbal remedies and they go to church every Sunday. I find it weird.

He's in his mid 20's and hasn't had any success with women. He prolly just has a huge complex about not getting any attention from girls and now even mundane stuff sets him off.

If someone wants to give me a room and three meals a day for $100/month I'll look the other way for pretty much everything that's not "these people are literal serial killers"

edit: looking at it it just looks like she grew up in a really lovely situation and doesn't know how to deal with people who aren't horrible. She repeatedly mentions that her parents would regularly stay up till 2am partying and drinking when she was growing up and that her boyfriend was the same way. That's kinda :smith:

I saw the title and thought it was going to be a sex thing 110% of the time. Threesome, "accidental" nudity, something along those lines. Nope. Just some plain old decent people who believe in silly things that have no impact on the guest and a tumblr freeloading.

I could understand if they're proper God botherers, that'd be weird for someone who hasn't been around religious people before but the way it's laid out, it sounds like she's more concerned about them growing berries in their backyard.

I know a mom and son duo like this. Dude is like late 40s and a master gardener but he's all hosed up from being sliced open by an ex-girlfriend's ex-boyfriend. They own over ten rental properties, they charge all their tenants next to nothing probably because they collect disability checks. The guy has like a half acre edible garden with all sorts of crazy poo poo id never seen before like jack fruit and chocolate pudding fruit and a mango tree that he spliced and hybridized so it grows a different species of mango for each season, and they just spend all day gardening and helping out their tenants with anything they can while forcing exotic produce on them. It's actually really nice but I think they're weird too.

Honestly, I’d say that a lot of these stories from this thread are pretty :smith: if you sit down and think about them. Like the girl whose fiance berated her for not wearing makeup - sure that’s weird and a little bizarre to think about, but in actuality he’s probably pretty abusive and a dickhead, and she’s probably had nothing but abusive assholes as exes (she does mention being insecure) and possibly abusive parents as well - and now she’s about to marry an abusive rear end, and apparently only has loving reddit as a figure she can confide in for personal advice.

The anonymous confessions thread, which I keep getting confused with this one, has been on a lot about cousinfucking lately

My [30M] girlfriend [29F] treats my cousin [23F] as "other women" because that's how it is in their culture.

quote:

My cousin and I run a nightclub. The club was started by our dads (brothers) and each of us started working here when we were 18. Since three years ago, my dad and uncle have both been retired and we run the place now.

My GF and I have been dating for a year. She's from a foreign country. Apparently in their culture, cousin relationships and marriages are very prevalent. That has made her more than a little uncomfortable with this situation. She thinks she can't shake it out of her mind that this is waiting for something to happen between us. To me this is incredibly absurd. She's not asking me to make a change but she has told me that she's uncomfortable 5 times now and she wraps it around things like "you two are spending time until late nights" but that's really just the nightclub business. Your working hours are late at night.

The last time she mentioned this I told her that I would have understood if this was a random girl who I was working closely with but it's not. But she thinks if it's not a sibling it should count as "other women". She says her own parents are cousins.

I don't know how to respond if (really when) she brings it up again.

tl;dr: Girlfriend is uncomfortable that I work with my cousin at our nightclub. She thinks she counts as "other women" because that's how it is in her culture and her parents are cousins

Before the incel forums. Women liked being around me. I actually had many female friends. However, I feel like that forum made me more bitter.

I miss the days when I was blindly incel. Whenever I thought it was still possible to get a woman, so I was always pleasant and at least had friends of the opposite sex. Now it's hard for me to make friends because I'm so bitter. I wish I didn't learn the bitter truth, but I have. Now it's too late. Death is the only option. I might even rob a bank or something else before I go out.

Man, front page of /r/r today is full of stories that seem like they could be good but end up being super long

This one was ok at least

My (24f) boyfriend (27m) is very caring and a great person but the sex is frustrating and I don't know what to do?

quote:

We've been together for just over a year.

When we met I had just come out of an abusive relationship and he was pretty much the opposite of my ex, extremely kind, thoughtful, and respectful. Right away we started spending a lot of time together but many months passed before he really started making moves sexually. And I was okay with that (even if it did kind of sometimes make me wonder if possibly he could be gay, or if he was a virgin). I mean, my sex drive probably is below average also, and especially at that point. But I do have a sex drive.

So anyway eventually there was some fumbling around it was clear that he was pretty noticeably below-averagely endowed. And that's fine, that genuinely did not bother me, and I didn't say anything. But eventually he did bring it up, and say how it was something he was really self conscious about. And for me it was actually a huge relief because it meant there was a lot better explanation for why it seemed like he was not that interested in sex than that he was gay. So I've always tried to do everything possible to reassure him.

But then on top of the size thing he would always cum very quickly (like sometimes even before being able to get in, and never lasting for more than like a minute). And that was actually kind of flattering and endearing at first. But as we've been doing it (or trying to do it) for over six months now and it does not seem like it is getting better at all, and overall probably getting worse (like sometimes now he will also have issues with not being able to get fully hard), it's starting to be really frustrating. And I've never blamed him or been negative or judgmental toward him about it, but at the same time it's something he also wants to try to improve, and he has tried a lot of different stuff, as far as different methods for learning to relax, and also talking to his doctor. But nothing has worked. He is also in pretty good shape, he exercises and has a good diet. He is not overweight or have diabetes or high blood pressure or anything like that. He has had his testosterone levels checked and apparently he is kind of toward the lower side for a guy his age but still normal according to his doctor and does not need (and the doctor would not give him) testosterone to be prescribed.

So yeah it's just really frustrating and I don't know what to do. And if it's something outside his control, like just biological thing for him like from not having that great of genetics, then I don't think I would ever really feel right dumping him over it.

tl;dr: Boyfriend is great in every other way but sex is really frustrating and I need advice.

Dude is in a bad self-confidence spiral if you ask me. He doesn't need hormone injections, he needs some goddamn therapy.
