I was upset and my coworker/friend came up to me and brushed my hair behind my ear, followed by him adamantly pinching my cheeks and staring at me. I started giggling and I’m like what are you doingg hehe and I didn’t 100% hear what he said, but I SWEAR it sounded like he said “getting you to blush.” He stopped and I immediately rubbed my red face while dumbly smiling and he said “cute.” So yeah, I wasn’t sad the rest of the day! :D

If anybody has Teddy in their town, would you share photos of him on the subreddit? He’s my favorite villager, he was in my town but left a while ago and I miss him :(

I (F23) Went to college for art because I didn’t think I would live to get out of college and start an actual life. Thanks to past me, I have no career prospects outside of retail and I’m living in my childhood room, while my other siblings move out of the house and are starting families.

The only thing that motivates me and keeps me happy some days is my coworker and best friend (M28). I’ve fallen in love with him through our codependency on each other to make it through our shitty job. We hang together outside of work, make jokes, broken the traditional touch barrier. He is beautiful, inside and out. However, he is married to another man. He will never feel the same towards me. And our non traditional friendship isn’t one formed through romance, but rather necessity.

I thought what little we had was enough and that if I kept trucking forward with my delusions that I could be happy. But now he’s talking about leaving our job. And I don’t think I can handle not seeing him every other day every week. I need him in my life. He doesn’t need me in his life.

I’m realizing I have no happy future ahead of me and that the first person I have ever fallen in love with will leave my life and I will be left with nothing.

I am thinking I should quit while I’m ahead, before the reality of my pathetic life becomes too painfully real. Before I find the courage to stop.

Probably will delete this all later out of embarrassment of my situation.

Ended up with me throwing gravel around in my backyard, puking my hot pocket into the kitchen sink and getting a massive nosebleed. IIII donttt thinkkk I’m gonna touch alcohol for a while lmao.

Does face touching/caressing have any place between friends, especially friends of the opposite sex?

I know every person has a different comfort level with physical contact, but face touching feels inherently romantic and intimate in my opinion.

I just want to tell my problems to a faceless platform because I have nobody to talk to about the problems accumulating in my life. I lost my online friend group of 6 years a few days ago because they were tired of hearing about my issues and called me crazy. They were my biggest support system since me and my family aren’t close emotionally. But I lost them because I treated them like a place I could dump my feelings.

The person I care most about in my life is my favorite person, somebody who can never love me the way I want them to love me. They are my friend, but I don’t know how long I can keep them. I think I will inevitably push them away with my wants and neediness, and I’m becoming more needy as I get more depressed and scared. I want to tell them how much I need their support right now, that I need them to care for me, but it would surely be too much for them to bare. I’m a burden.

What’s really topped this all off is last night, my parents were driving drunk and got into a car crash that totaled their vehicle + the other vehicle and ended up with my mom spending the night at a police station. So that’s going to be a whole situation moving forward. I’m sure it will spread around town quickly.

I’m losing control, I’m spiraling. I need somebody. I don’t know who to turn to. I don’t want to drive my favorite person away. But I’m suffering. Everything ahead looks bleak. And I’m tired. I want to escape this all, retreat into my mind. I want to wake up with my favorite person in another world where we can be happy together and I don’t have to feel like a problem.
