i cried out of frustration after doing the deed

Hey guys,

I genuinely don’t know how to process what I’m feeling and what my next steps are.

I (F) have been seeing this guy for more than a year now. It started off as FWBs and I caught feelings. It’s very much one-sided and he is aware of my feelings towards him. We have been having really good sex but recently I have been noticing that it has always been him finishing.

I would go down on him and let him finish. Once he is finished, he’s done. Everything’s done. I go home and rub one out. But the last time we had done the deed, I just cried while he took a shower. I still cry at the thought of it now. I’m not sure if it’s because I feel hopeless in this situation or because I didn’t even finish or maybe am somehow begging/hoping for him to like me.

Best Doughnuts / Apple Fritters

I just had a dream about doughnuts and can’t stop craving them now.

Does anyone know where to get really good doughnuts? bonus if they also sell apple fritters

I know the big companies like Krispy Kreme, Donut King, Walker’s doughnuts etc. I’m specifically looking for very yeasty doughnuts. Not the ones that are sold in supermarkets as I find them to be too dense/more like cake.

Thank you!

22F - explain super to me like i’m 15

Hi guys!

I’m currently on the journey of being financially responsible and educating myself with this stuff.

I have been working as a casual since I was 16. I am currently studying full time so still working as a casual however, I do have two jobs and averaging at 28-30hrs a week.

Last year, I moved my super to HostPlus into a High Growth Account and that’s basically all I’ve done. I only did it because a friend of mine has advised me to do so and till now, I don’t understand the purpose (I have an idea but not a consolidating one).

What other things should I do? I hear people salary sacrifice, how do I do that? Do I tell my employer? How much should I contribute to my super if my weekly salary differs every week, is there a certain percentage?

Deinfluence me from spending a week’s worth of pay

Someone pls pls pls deinfluence me going on a whole spending spree.

I am currently working two jobs (both casual positions) and averaging 35-40 hours a week plus uni on top of that. I have achieved my emergency fund goal. I am currently saving up for uni placements which will be at the end of the year. Also saving up for a family travel.

I guess this is just me justifying the spending spree but I feel burnt out and maybe this is how I’ll cope?? I am aware that taking breaks will be the best thing to do but it affects me mentally when I don’t work. Almost like I feel guilty for taking a break.

Anyways, I’m still not sure what I’ll be spending on or how much I’ll be spending. I’m looking at around $600 to $1,000.

Is this reasonable? Am I financially irresponsible? How do I get over this urge?

Don’t be nice and slap me with reality

Visiting the Philippines soon - What are the MUST BUY items?

Hi girlies!

I’m a Filipina living overseas and will be visiting the Philippines soon. I keep up with all the recent trends and (some) make up brands. However due to luggage limitations, ano pinaka recommended nyo na products that are worth hoarding? HAHAHHAHA SUPER EXPENSIVE AND UNAVAILABLE ANG MGA PH PRODUCTS HERE OVERSEAS :(((

I usually buy kojie san skin lightening soap IN BULK AS IN AHHAHAHHA ++ yung Bubblegum Baby Bench. I would say na those two are the MUST BUY things for me.

I’m looking for products mainly make up (i have oily and acne prone type skin)

Deinfluence me from downloading dating apps, specifically Hinge

Please someone knock some sense into me.

I know it’s not the best place to look for a long-term partner. Or maybe it is!

Dating in this generation is just so hard 🥲

Deinfluence me from getting my nails done - first time

hey guys!

i am looking at getting nails done for the first time time ever. i have researched and looked for nail places and found a well-reviewed home-based nail artist.

i’m not getting any extensions, just builder gel (BIAB) and a simple design (attached below). the nail artist quoted me $70 which seems like it’s on the cheaper on of things (correct me if i am wrong).

i have only applied regular nail polish on my nails and they tend to peel off after 2 days. i’m on my self enhancement era and nails are on my list but i’m just unsure if i should go ahead with it when i’ve been fine living my whole life without it.

Thank youu

First time getting a haircut - Should I get layers?

I’m looking at getting a haircut where the purple line is. This basically just cuts off any breakage and dead ends.

Do you guys think I can potentially go for a layered haircut with my hair type?

Also it’s my first time ever going to the hair dressers. Do I wash and completely dry my hair (like the picture) before going to the appoint?

I have a round, chubby face so I’m not quite sure if butterfly bangs would suit me due to the curls

Never had a hair cut - where do I start?

Hey guys!

I (21F) have never trimmed, cut, or coloured my hair. Basically, I have virgin hair and never really cared about it. I have been seeing the Curly Hair Method for a few years now but the amount of information and products out there is very overwhelming.

For context, I grew up in a culture that looks down in curly hair as it looks “messy” and “unattractive”. Combine that with religion that doesn’t let you cut your hair.

I have moved past that now and I’m ready to have it atleast trimmed and have a better understanding of my hair type.

I have a few questions in regards to products, hair maintenance etc.

  1. What would you consider my hair type? I tried the hair porosity test and some strands are low, some strands are high.

  2. How do I know which products are MOST likely to be good for my hair? I know that I should try some products out but they aren’t cheap and I don’t want to waste product if they end up not working. Preferably, products that are on Australian market shelves.

  3. What is the recommended hair washing routine? I am Asian and have heard that we need to wash our hair frequently. I find this true just because my scalp gets oily the next day. Is that a sign that I’m washing too often and stripping my hair or is that just genetics?

Thank you!!
